Catchiest video game song?

I thought of this post entirely because I have the Pokémon Center theme from Pokémon HeartGold SoulSilver stuck in my head, and it has wriggled in over and over for months despite me hearing and actively playing other music.

Yeah that's why I didn't link it. I can hear the riff and even play the riff on guitar on a moments notice
Friend says "play me something" and I immediately play that riff

But if I had to it will probably be Melodies of Life.
Actually, I change my mind, this is the catchiest video game song.

"Tim, would you mind making the music for our Ghouls and Ghosts Commodore port?"
"No problem, here's 9 full length tracks spanning 22 minutes including a 4 minute long title screen song. I hope that's enough. I hope I got the screams right..."

wrote on 27 May 2025, 01:04 last edited byTrue, i agree with that. I will amend to be:
- Lost Woods (TLoZ Ocarina of time)
- Song of storms (TLoZ Ocarina of time)
- SMW Overworld Theme (Super Mario World)

I still credit the Wood Man stage music for providing me focus and making it through a downpour on an unfamiliar highway with construction.
