Line 5:
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_UGKCvIrF_o Kraid's Lair]. Or any of its [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luOJNpk9I4Y awesome] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4EVut4A52c remixes].
* And there's the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-2sE0Napg0 original Brinstar theme].
* Give it up for [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQppamJoDqc the original ending theme]. Made even better by ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NS4DPxH4UQ Metroid: Zero Mission].
** Japanese people who had the disk system were treated to [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldiDYvGvHzo this version] of the tune, which is the true original.
* Despite being the black sheep of the series, ''Metroid II: Return of Samus'' gave us some [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBR7c-uYVhg awesome] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rEQVYxhlMc music] as well...
Line 25:
** Also, "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRYO-qnX24o Last Instructions]", which gets its first debut with "{{spoiler|[[As You Wish|Any objections, Lady?]]}}"
** In keeping with Fusion's [[Survival Horror]] vibe, the ambient music is very tense and ominous. Let's hear it for [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14CP34VmwQw&feature=related Sector 3 (PYR)], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yowIikQZesk&feature=related Sector 6 (NOC)], and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPsPVhWnpfg&feature=related Sector 2 (TRO)].
** When [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zUv8jdGvjM&feature=related Environmental Disquiet] starts playing, ''get scared''.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D40RHPimrKk&feature=related The SA-X Approaches], which sadly, lacks the horrifying 'tap tap' of the footsteps. And you ''pray'' it doesn't turn into [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ckKjgfq2Es&feature=related Escape From The SA-X]...
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQfnA6UI1_w&feature=related X Invasion] really emphasizes the horror of the X gaining access to the environmental sectors aboard BSL.
Line 35:
* Let's give ''[[Metroid Prime]]'' some love here. The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lfv21XfwQ8 Prime boss music] from the first game is particularly awesome.
** But the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaIoLwVQJes Prime final boss music] is arguably even better.
** The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtz1kmO70aM battle theme for the Plated Beetle, Sheegoth and Cloaked Sentry Droid] is also a very heart-pounding beat.4
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nLLjibR_c4Q Don't forget Meta Ridley], who arrives on the scene with a techno remix of his old [[Leitmotif]].
Line 47:
* How about the theme for [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mziw3FQkZYg&feature=related Tallon Overworld]? It does an awesome job of setting the mood.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6Ky2BMVWfs Tallon Overworld 2] is cool as well
* The theme for Flaahgra was glitched in the first US release for Metroid Prime causing it to repeat the first part throughout the whole battle. It wasn't until the normal English version, the Player's Choice versions and Metroid Prime: Trilogy came out until we got to hear [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JhnrH30411A how awesome it really was].
* I don't see Chozo Ruins on this page. Why don't I see Chozo Ruins on this page? You should all be ashamed of yourselves. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXS3XZwPaEk Now stop starving your ears.]
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3cWbLagjxbA Anyone who doesn't get chills down their spine when they hear Chozo Ghosts is not even human.]
Line 89:
* Samus' own theme music is also worth a listen.
* [http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=D3RiF2r3vTY This theme music] is just as, if not more awesome.
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20170517030932/http://www.metroidmetal.com/ Metroid Metal] is the best piece of Metroid music remixes you can get out there.
** Although the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypdatn0tweE Orchestrated version] may warrant equal stock.
* [http://dod.redheadedblacksheep.net/past/jan05/ZZ%20virt_-_metroid_-_SPACE_PIRATES-DoD.mp3 SPACE PIRATES]{{Dead link}}! Why did you submit this remix [https://web.archive.org/web/20111026083730/http://dod.redheadedblacksheep.net/past/jan05/ as a "joke tune", virt?] It's awesome!
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20121118231444/http://www.shinesparkers.net/harmonyofahunter/ Harmony of a Hunter,] a two-disc tribute to the Metroid franchise as a whole. It features plenty of [[OverClocked Remix]] veterans, but of particular note is Sam Dillard's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDYbARADCWo Into the Green World,] an incredible symphonic remix of Green Brinstar. It doesn't stop there, however...
** Sam Dillard's 3 mixes are among the best in the album. Besides into the Green World, he also did a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojSJfw7p0CM medley of the ending themes], which was so well done that ACTUAL COMPOSERS COULDN'T TELL IT WAS MIDI.
** Here are two other greats from the album: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WWvpZC8WRU&feature=related Desperation] fittingly paints the picture of an heroic escape, while [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbu1VdRSxBk Melting Sun] is a touching send-off to {{spoiler|Rundas}}.
