Watching Jaws tonight had me wondering what the most recognizable movie theme song of all time was.

A few guesses


[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhlPAj38rHc]YouTube - Rocky theme song[/ame]

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bzWSJG93P8]YouTube - Star Wars- The Imperial March (Darth Vader's Theme)[/ame]

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvCI-gNK_y4]YouTube - Jaws theme!![/ame]

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVNNhBtBbOs]YouTube - Indiana Jones Theme Song (Full Song)[/ame]

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9vrfEoc8_g]YouTube - Superman Theme[/ame]

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jyk8_TGw8PE]YouTube - Beverly Hills Cop Theme Original Version[/ame]


I'm sure I'm missing quite a few so feel free to add others
 
Here are some more:


The Exorcist
The James Bond theme
Mission Impossible theme
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
The Pink Panther theme
Ghostbusters
The Godfather theme (even though I am not a fan).

And because I love David Lean movies I have to include Doctor Zhivago, Bridge Over the River Kwai and Lawrence of Arabia even if these might not be so recognizable these days.

Those are all very good. I have to agree with a previous poster that Rocky is number 1.

And, I hate to say it, but this is going to be very high on any list...

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=saalGKY7ifU"]YouTube - 'Titanic' Theme Song[/ame]
 
Rocky, Top Gun, and Star Wars. My Heart will go on from Titanic sadly also deserves mention.

Also, any John Hughes movie song from the 80's deserves some mention. The 90's and 00's had very minimal for quality movie theme songs it is looking like.
 
john williams easily gets five or six, shore for LOTR, zimmer and horner are amazing, but they both do similar things in each movie so nothing sticks out.

I would say the imperial march is more famous than the main theme of star wars too.
