Eh, you won't get it anyway.

Ha! I never owned an Amiga, but I got into Mod files a fair bit back in the 90s. I still have this song on my hard drive :D

Also, this thread is lacking without having mentioned (http://souleyedigitalmusic.bandcamp.com/album/pppppp-the-vvvvvv-soundtrack) VVVVVV (aka PPPPPP for the soundtrack).
Thanks to the Humble Frozenbyte bundle, I have also been enjoying the Trine soundtrack.

Finally (for this post), following up the tradition of excellent Ys music, the music from Ys is (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Sjxk3hGT0g) also (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhRjsdzSmE8) fantastic.

Jools is a poseur. Jops and Stu never get the credit they deserve.
Speaking of Amiga, I remember absolutely loving the music of (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fvha_2hAzq0) the intro of Turrican 2.

dethtoll's link reminded me of a (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eylUix1yADQ) rock medley of metroid I enjoyed a lot when it came out.

Portal 2's soundtrack is(http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=122433&p=2075636&viewfull=1#post2075636) the best in recent years.

Wait wait wait, Amiga music mentioned without the (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_oW6AOXkdE) Speedball 2 intro mentioned? For shame, gentlemen

While we're at old Atari / Amiga games like the awesome Gods intro:

(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PiYuq6Ac3a0) Cannon Fodder intro
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55jpHprP_ao) The Chaos Engine intro
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2w-tiRnac2k) Xenon 2 - Megablast (there's a "better quality" version of this, but that one doesn't hold my nostalgia)

And as Zerker said, the soundtrack for Trine is awesome. I especially like the music for the last level.

I very likely mentioned this last time round but my favorite of the Unreal 1 tracks:
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pH4lwDFqKV0&playnext=1&list=PLB1B7A5553E7F4C94)

And fired up the game music playlist on my pc and these ones were worth mentioning:

A track from Shadowrun (snes) as played on piano:

Vagrant Story Blood-Sin:

Final Fantasy Tactics - Bloody Excrement
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YSiDzOdyXL8)

Policenauts - BCP HQ Music

And here's 5 tracks in 1 link for Mechwarrior 2:
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C42xCauM9jU)

Pretty much the entire soundtrack from Mechwarrior 2 is excellent, and if your lucky enough to still have the game CDs you can play them from any CD player :).

Some interesting mentions here.

I've only got round to playing Mirror's Edge recently and I thought it had a few interesting musical choices. As in there points where I actually stopped to listen to the ambient music which I rarely do. The rhythm of some of the pieces was also quite well matched to the pacing of the game in certain places.

I dunno if it's been mentioned in the thread before, but I've caught myself humming parts of the bit.trip.runner soundtrack at work lately.
