What is your absolute favourite track from a video game?
-
Still Alive
That's the video game song that gets in my head the most.
Interestingly, despite how it's not as good of a song, I probably think about Want You Gone about as often as Still Alive. It doesn't really come through as a song, just the phrases. "Now I only want you gone." "You've got your short sad life left. [...] I'll let you get right to it."

My Dark Disquiet by Poets of the Fall from Control.
-
It's a piece of music featured in surviv.io, a browser 2D battle royale that has a tragic story of being acquired by a stupid company who ran it to the ground.
Occasionally a Desert Rain Map rotation would happen, and this track is played on loops in a saloon, which there is only one. The relaxing vibes contrast so much with the battle royale.

Weird one - the labyrinth music from BotW. I used to listen to extended versions of that for hours at work, just to make things feel tense and intriguing.

The CD-rom for Mechwarrior 2 could play in a standard CD player. Track one was the data for the game, but the remaining 22-odd tracks were the in-game music. We used to listen to the Mechwarrior 2 soundtrack while playing everything else. I still love that music.
