I must heartily second Carmina Burada and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
When running, for me, it’s Monty Norman’s original James Bond Theme from Dr. No.
How about John Williams overture for Superman?
And Danny Elfman’s Batman Returns!
And James Horner’s Escape from the Tavern from Willow.

Rock and Roll Zeppelin

Short, but invincible:
Mastadge Drag from movie soundtrack of Stargate.
It has the spirit of the William Tell Overture on steroids.
On that note I’ll add Pantera’s Cowboys from Hell. I would listen to it on my Discman all the time and would constantly feel the urge to challenge oncoming traffic.
Motherfucker=redeemer by Godspeed You Black Emperor!
Hey hey, neutron star, great Murphys song.
If I had to pick one, I’d go with Legend of Fin MacCumhail.

Mouthwash - We Evolve
Rancid - Black Derby Jacket
Thought of another one Drink and Fight – the Mudmen
Ever see the video for it? It’s pretty damn cool (though possibly not so if you have epilepsy :)).

I’m a big fan of rock and roll but going further back, John Philip Sousa’s “Stars and Stripes Forever” can really stir things up.
I can’t top that, but I was honored to be the first in line to meet Vince DiCola at the Official Transformers Collectors Convention in Chicago this past month. I told him that his Transformers soundtrack got me interested in film scoring and composition back when I was in elementary school, and I’ve been a dabbler and a fan ever since. He signed my soundtrack CD and I shook his hand. Cool guy. Wish I coulda seen him and/or Stan Bush perform, though!
