I quite liked some of the tracks from Crysis. Maybe it's because I was given the collectors edition which came with a soundtrack disk?
"Sometimes You Win"- I can't recall what level but I suspect one of the last. Dark grueling intro, Then soaring and exciting, perfect compliment as your adrenadline rush gets going for a difficult fight. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=552BEeKOIRg
"Stricklands March"- Note the marching elements like the drums and trumpet used for footsteps. Used for a level with you assisting a relentless US tank advance. Lead by (unsuprisingly) Major Strickland. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wS-Ea4pLnsk
Red Alert 2 also had brilliant music. I'm not sure what to say about it except it's the only electronic music I've ever listened to and liked and it's the perfect music for an RTS when leaving an army into battle and blowing stuff up.
"In Deep"- Deep, menacing and threatening for when you don't know what the enemy's doing or when they'll attack. But you're building up your army and you *know* that they're building up theirs and that time is running out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5x7VvFy4BYQ
For the Greatest Musical Acompanyment In Any Game Ever It would have to be Adiago For Strings (choral version) Genocide never had a more fitting or sadder accompaniment. Really hits home that those Cryo Trays contain basically the entirety of your surviving race. Cut Scene: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXNQNeLDg5s
