    What are your favorite boss battle themes? As long as it plays during a boss it counts!

    My favorite boss battle theme is from Jak and Daxter, during the Gol and Mia fight.

    Sonic boss battle music has also always been a favorite of mine. These tracks are amazing.

    Every boss theme in Touhou. (Which makes what, over 100? XD)

    But here are a couple of the outstanding ones:

    [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4gqGhN0xnE[/media]
    Sanae Kochiya's theme from Touhou 10: Mountain of Faith. One of my favorites, it's absolute perfection.

    [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhlXhaS3OkU[/media]
    Byakuren Hijiri's theme from Touhou 12: Undefined Fantastic Object. To be frank, only relatively impressive. The real beauty comes in Byakuren's story, which you can find here: http://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Byakuren_Hijiri In my opinion, the story goes perfectly with the song.

    Again, I have to go with my love for Donkey Kong 64:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYqQbaem0Bc

    This is just a regular boss battle, but the music is way more epic as the final boss theme :)

    Lysandre from X/Y has a really theme, that feels intense and scary at the same time, as it should.

    Cynthia's theme from Pokémon Platinum is amazing. I also really like the Kirby boss themes since they always seem to be so upbeat.

    How has this not been mentioned already?

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBSbcIXTKiQ&list=PL9793A30C55CED7F6

    It's a remix, but do I care? I don't care. It sounds nice.

    Adding to what tracks shinygiratinaz mentioned, here's one my favourites;

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mm0EScj-uuY

    Maaaan, Spyro 3 had like, the most epic boss music.


    And here's another favourite boss them tune of mine, yet again from a game also dev'd by Insomniac;

    ....Coming back to slip in one more, a gem that I happened to rediscover today;

    Crush 40 did such a nice job with the songs they made for Sonic games.

    There are so many good theme I don't know what to choose, although Cynthia's theme was really good.
    And, because I recently played this game again I can't leave this out. http://youtu.be/RdaFmJExRFM

    Crush 40 is so great at making amazing boss themes and songs in general. <3
