The 1970's powerup from Skullmonkeys. They were few and far between, but every time you got one you would be taken to a bonus stage with the following music:
Mario's Star Power is a strong, strong contender[footnote]As one might expect with something directly related to invincibility[/footnote], but the 'item get!' music from Metroid Prime 2 is fantastic. It's like a little reward all on its own. Same goes for in the Zelda games, one second...
It's really different from all the other tracks in the game. The siren makes you feel like you can't stop and have to keep going. Anything that gets in your way is toast.
Maybe it's just the nostalgia goggles, but the Aku Aku music always makes me feel like shit has most certainly gotten real (for about five seconds before it wears off. Bloody time limit).
