Line 4:
* From the movie ''Do You Remember Love'' we have [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gzn5VWKg7lY Ai, Oboete Imasu Ka?], sung by Lynn Minmay in the final battle (in the original series, she ironically sang Ai wa Nagareru, an [[Soundtrack Dissonance|anti-war song]]).
** This was also sung by Ranka Lee while under Grace O'Connor's control in the final battle of [[Macross Frontier]], here used to keep control of the Vajra with the antagonists.
* Just about anything from the band [[Macross 7|Fire Bomber]], but especially ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIhPOU4Rdl0 Totsugeki Love Heart]'' which at several times serves as Basara's [[Theme Music Power -Up]]. ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnafmeFQUlc Now with extra May'n goodness!])
** Hey, don't forget ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJ6ogZSX4WE Holy Lonely Light]''! It essentially becomes Fire Bomber's [[Theme Music Power -Up]]: when this starts playing, the Protodevlin are about to get owned '''HARD'''.
* ''[[Macross Frontier]]'' takes this trope to its logical conclusion, where awesome music is not just used as the backdrop for awesome things happening, but the awesomeness is actually choreographed to fit the music, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3iSasBpwS4Y reaching] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UB5_nV6Fe40 whole] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aAWUue_Cf9g new] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKiu30uKR7s levels] of awesome. This reaches it's extreme in the finale, where [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5H1yTmrrAFs almost every major song] is featured in a sequence which redefines awesomeness itself.
** Made even more awesome at [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wX5FRU5ogaA Budokan].
Line 21:
*** THE apocalyptic music for the franchise: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHQJVdRIdXU The Song of Destruction]. Earlier on is [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=my_eJapRRuE Totem Spell], shorter but by no means worse in the ominous chanting department.
*** Finally, the absolutely ''beautiful'' theme song of the series: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elnF8NKi_b4 Arkan].
* Ditto with [[Macross II]]: Despite the OVA series being [[So Okay ItsIt's Average]], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tH7FtEKKN4Y Yakusoku] is probably [[Tropers/Nitramy|this troper]]'s favorite ED.
** Just ''Yakusoku''? [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZlJM2aZZWM Mika Kaneko's "A hush like 200 million years"] is just as awesome, in [[Tropers/Orihime|this tropette's]] humble opinion.
