...BISHOP'S COUNTDOWN from ALIENS by James Horner.

Certainly one of the very best, agreed. And written in such a short amount of time.

"Bishop's Countdown" would be in my top ten for sure.

The one I seem to constantly hum in my head for over 30 years is, "The Battle in the Snow" from Empire Strikes Back. Runner up would be "Sharptooth and the Earthquake" from Land Before Time.

Runner-Ups: "Klendathu Drop" from Starship Troopers...


...but, but.. your user name is Tango Urilla! confused smile


Oh I love Tango Urilla, too! I very easily could have included it in my runner-ups (along with Radio Shack/Whiskey Outpost Pt. 2/Death of Dizzy), but nothing from Starship Troopers beats Klendathu Drop for me.

Klendathu Drop just didn't have quite the same username ring as Tango Urilla. wink
