I'm sure this thread has been made before, but I couldn't find it in a search. Nothing wrong with a new, updated thread anyway, right?

I adore the Ghost in the Shell: SAC soundtracks! In addition to Inner Universe, my favourites from it are: Cbristmas in the Silent Forest, Cyberbird, From the Roof Top, Lithium Flower, Monochrome, Rise, Run Rabbit Junk, Torukia, Some Other Time, Velveteen and Zero Signal. From the '95 film soundtrack I adore the 'Chant' trilogy, Nightstalker and Floating Museum. Ballade of the Puppets trilogy from Innocence is also pretty good.
Of course there's 'Tank' and 'The Real Folk Blues' from Cowboy Bebop, the only other track from the series I know by name is Road to the West, I plan to look into the soundtracks next month.
I also have the three Death Note anime soundtracks, my prime favourites from which are L's Theme, Solitude, Sympathy, Death Note and Near's Theme.

I've seen so many changeful years, / to Earth I am a stranger grown: / I wander in the ways of men, / alike unknowing and unknown: / Unheard, unpitied, unrelieved, / I bear alone my load of care; / For silent, low, on beds of dust, / Lie all that would my sorrows share. - Robert Burns' Lament for James

Susumu Hirasawa's "Forces", from Berserk. In fact, Berserk's whole OST was awesome.
Soundtracks to the old Space Pirate Captain Harlock and Galaxy Express 999 titles were kickass as well, but I have no idea where you could find those.

Seconding Yoko Kanno. Her work really goes above and beyond the average ost.
And I have to put a good word for G Gundam's music. It's so delightfully cheesey and never fails to get me pumped up.
Also, FLCL. Of course.

Series where I've noticed the BGM enough to say "this is good" -- well, Princess Tutu goes without saying, really, being a special case, but also
Noir
Gankutsuou
Simoun
Letter Bee
Ghost Hound
Paprika
as opposed to generally fading from memory as anything distinct from the mood of the visuals.
OP/ED choices really go here -- viewtopic.php?t=5306 (even though that thread is mixed A/V, rather than just the music)

Well, this thread wasn't specifically about openings and closings. Granted, that's probably what will get mentioned most in this thread, I still wanted it to be open to all sorts of music. About half of my list doesn't appear in an opening or ending.

Exactly -- OP/ED specific stuff can go in the other thread, especially if it turns to the visuals; this one is more for the broader scope of the music throughout.
For example, I gave Noir as a favourite -- and what really makes that are the character themes, Salva Nos and Canta per me; the OP and ED are done by different artists, and are much weaker than the music used within the story just as background.

bittersweet ending: episode 24. the angels are gone and mankind is safe... but tokyo-3 has been ruined; Kaji is dead; toji is a cripple; kensuke, hikari, and their families have moved away, taking pen-pen with them; Asuka is catatonic; ritsuko is in prison; Misato is a nervous wreck; Rei is "the third one"; and Shinji is utterly broken psychologically after having to kill the only person who has offered him unconditional love in the course of the whole series. come the movie? don't worry! it gets worse! ~from the source of all wisdom in the world.

Pretty much all the music from Eva, durrrhurrr :P
Always adored the two-mix songs for Mobile Suit Gundam Wing, especially Just Communication. Probably my fave song from an anime EVER.
I love the entire Revolutionary Girl Utena soundtrack, but especially Anthy no theme.
Lilium from Elfen Lied melts my heart, even though that show was pretty bad.
