If you had a small part from a song play every time you entered a room with other people, what would you want your theme to be?

One-Winged Angel. Just the intro, before the Latin. Specifically this version.

The best final boss music to a video game was 29 years ago and has not been topped since. Of course, with the rise of PlayStation and disc-based games (ironically, where Final Fantasy 7 was released and in which form), games became more about the journey than that final fight. There were still "last boss fights," but they became less the focus and more about the end of the journey. But after beating Sephiroth for the first time, and he sprouts a wing (just the one!) and this song kicks in, and the real fight begins... that's when you knew you were in some shit. Especially if you reached max level and Sephiroth took literally an hour to beat (I think this was an early anti-cheat thing).

Anyone who doesn’t pick this will quickly be insane, and have no friends. I walk through a lot of doorways in a day.

The first 2-3 seconds of the Cowboy Bebop theme..

Second choice: ~0:48 to about 1:00 of Theme for Jetsetters by The Tikiyaki Orchestra (assuming a fade out near the end)

Third choice: Acapella version of the Pokemon Red Rival Appears music for about 14 seconds. People in the room find themselves disoriented and confused, wondering why on earth they started singing when I walked in.

Picture it... Henry Mancini - Baby Elephant Walk starts playing. You walk in. Double finger-guns. Wry smile. A wink for every person in the room.

They might question why you're wearing a mascot costume to the formal, but pop off king.

At first I was thinking of 45:33 from lcd sound system. But the John Cage background noise is a much better choice.

That Gladiator's entrance song that morphed into the circus-looney song.

It does contain a sample of 4'33" if you listen carefully

I'm in Enterprise IT, so mine would be the chorus from Bob Dylan's "Everything is Broken.".

It was my work phone ringtone when I still had a work phone
