Iunno how this wasn't mentioned, but Payday 2 has a lot of catchy / going-hard songs.

Gonna leave 3:

1. Hot Pursuit
2. Evil Eye
3. The Mark

Turrican2 and GODS .... Amiga :)

I can't pick just one, honestly. Aside from the Tetris theme and World 1-1 from the original Super Mario Bros., I consider these to be not only catchy but also iconic:

• Guile theme for SSF2
• Rip & Tear from DOOM (2016). A modern day classic, imo
• Brinstar from the original Metroid
• Hail to the king, baby

Neon White OST

Here a little late with some certified bangers in no particular order:

Bomberman Hero - Redial

Deus Ex - VersaLife

Monty on the Run - Main theme (Commodore 64)

Sonic CD [JP] - Quartz Quadrant (Present)

System Shock - Executive

System Shock 2 - Engineering

Jet Set Radio - Sneakman

Max Payne 3 - TEARS

Mega Man 3 - Shadow Man Theme

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night - Wandering Ghosts

Sparkster [Genesis/MD] - Stage 1-1

Kirby 64 - Rock Star

Megaman 2 Wily stage 1

A lot from Undertale. Personal favourite is Spider Dance.

Other than this, The Trumpet 4 is catchy as heck.

Mine Windbag Mine is also incredibly catchy as heck, Darren Korb is super talented.

The entire soundtrack from FTL is fantastic and catchy and full of ear worms.

I can never pick one, so here's a few:

• E1M1(Doom)

• Hell March(Red Alert)

• Character creation music in BG3

• Megalovania(Undertale)

• Coral Crown(Hades II)

We All Lift Together from Warframe goes fucking hard.

All versions of moon over the castle from the gran tursimo series, the version from GT4 goes hard.

The Driftveil City Theme from Pokemon B&W pops up in my mind quite frequently, I'd say its up there in the list for catchiest Pokemon tunes. Honorable mention for Cave Story's Main Theme (the wii version is clearly superior from all others and I will not accept any other opinions on the matter)

As far as Pokemon goes, I've always been partial to the Team Galactic battle theme from DPPT. And though "catchy" doesn't quite do it justice, the night theme for Jubilife City, also in DPPT, is tremendous. Walking into that city for the first time at night was one of the defining moments of my video game life.

And the Shiver City theme from Paper Mario is unforgettable.

I don't think anything will ever beat Still Alive from Portal though.

Turtle Woods from Crash Bandicoot 2 has never left me ever since I first played it on the PS1.

Sonic two when sonic drowns.

Not what you asked for, but my music taste was shaped massively by Tony Hawk's Pro Skater series

Iwatodai Dorm from Persona 3 Reload was the most recent one that really got stuck in my head, but it happens a lot for me. It’s not always video game music, but probably is a majority of the time.

for me it’s perhaps Metro Exodus end scene.

Everything from Grim Fandango.

I'm locking my answer in on the old Minecraft music. Literally EVERYONE knows it.

Suicide run, Mass Effect 2.

Hang On main theme tune is excellent. The soundtrack to Hang-On and Super Hang-On are both top tier.

Tim Follin:

Solstice

Silver Surfer

Time Trax

Pictionary

It's cheating, but there was a track in need for speed carbon that was catchy as hell. Love me or hate me, by Lady Sovereign

Not technically video game music, but it's one of the few tracks in any video game that I went out of my way to find outside of a game.

Old RuneScape Soundtrack: Harmony

The from Yakuza: Like a Dragon has been in heavy rotation on my favorites playlist for a while now.
