I love these games and I think the soundtracks are underrated as an essential part of their appeal. I'll Start with one:

Tube of Medusa from Ecco2: Tides of Time.

Personally, I think the Sega CD version soundtrack is... fine, but it has a different composer. If I remember correctly, it;s the composer from the first Ecco. In my opinion, it's inoffensive, but completely forgettable.

EDIT: I have edited the topic to include older stuff.

I am kinda boring since I'm usually not as big of a fan of music from the 16 bit consoles when compared to the next gen, but due to childhood nostalgia of playing Sonic Mega Collection, I love the Green Hill Zone theme alongside Emerald Hill Zone theme. I personally think they sound marvelous when I listen to them with headphones plugged into my Genesis.

I cannot make any meaningful statements about my other favorite, Palm Tree Panic ( present ) JP version since I don't have a Mega Drive, Mega CD, and Japanese copy of Sonic CD. But it's still a bop in my book.
