Fitting music in games

[reg42]

Have you ever heard a song that you just though who be perfect in a video game, or just reminds you of a moment in a game?
I have, "No-One Gets Left Behind" by Five Finger Death Punch always makes me think of team shooters, CoD4 specifically.

I'm aware this is a list thread, but it's in the wrong forum to start with games discussion is over there somewhere and it's a topic that particularly interests me from a discussion stand point.

I think a lot of people who haven't necessarily studied music or have but are limited to only enjoying the guitar miss just how important music is to setting and atmostphere... the best music is music that you don't even really notice, but is paramount to making the person in control, or watching (in the case of movies) feel a certain way.

I think the Call of Duty makers understand that, especially given that they used Hans Zimmer for the latest game.
