It's gotta be Stardust or Super Stardust, the Amiga's equivalent of
the Atari Jaguar's Tempest 2000!

Also, the orchestral soundtrack on Genetic Species was very
atmospheric.

Who can forget the intro music to Cannon Fodder though? "War, never
been so much fun..."

:-D :-D :-D

I like the soundtrack to Litil Divil on CD32, I think that's the one I
liked. It had these plinky-plonky comedy orchestral tunes.

What was the soundtrack of the Alien Breed games like, I'm sure it
must have been good. The Zool games always had something for everyone
too.

:-)

I have always liked the music from Shadow of the Beast and Treasure Trap.  I have them burned onto an Audio CD which I play all the time in my car.  Treasure Trap really sounds good if you have a sub-woofer hooked up and play it loud!   :-D
My favorite TV shows:  Star Trek Voyager, Forever Knight, Stargate SG1, Married with Children, As Time Goes By, Mr. Bean, Smallville, The Six Million Dollar Man, and Xena

Every Amiga game seemed to have pretty good music. If you listen real hard to the Lotus music, it says, "dDon't copy this game." Sorta like a subliminal message. hehe.

To name a few not yet named:

The Killing Gameshow
GODS
Lemmings...

Binding Polymer: Keeping you together since 1892.

Yep, Turrican & Turrican II rocked.  Can't forget stuff like Xenon 1 & 2, Shadow of the Beast, Super Stardust, Batman the Movie, Pinball Fantasies, X-Out, Z-Out, Hybris and Silkworm either.  

After graduating from a ZX Spectrum I couldn't believe the quality of the stuff my Amiga 500 was pumping out of the speakers.
