So many, but the first 2 that came to mind were hearing the “Rocketeer” and “Rescuers Down Under” themes when the Fountain of Nations did their water show at Epcot. I always paused to watch those 2. I think “Surprise in the Skies” might have been another music piece. Back in the mid 90s I used to work just outside the doors to Centorium, which was the main shop at that park. I’d know when it was almost time to go to break when I heard the fountain music go off. That was also one of my favorite times of working Disney. We had a good group of regulars working there with me. It was some good magic making. Anytime I play those 2 pieces of music I think of that fountain and all the happy memories come flooding back.
Well today’s Saturday Soundtrack was the Aulani Resort Soundtrack! We were definitely channeling the Island Vibes today! You can stream these songs on Spotify and Apple Music!
I personally love soundtracks, I could be here typing hundreds of examples away.
In the Star Wars IV- A New Hope soundtrack I have a couple that are besides the Main Theme(intro) and the Throne Room (ending):
“Mouse Robot and Infiltrating The Death Star”
(the scene that Han and Luke, disguised as Stormtroopers, are “escorting” their ‘prisoner’ Chewbacca to the detention center on the Death Star looking for Leia); a sinister sounding piece, goes exceptionally well seeing all the Death Star Imperial officials and droids passing Luke, Han and Chewie by the detention center elevators.
This one in particular has always stood out for me since I first saw Star Wars in '77. The other one is the tie fighter attack on the Falcon after they escape from the Death Star headed towards Yavin. In the Phantom Menace it would be when Darth Sidious appears to the Viceroy via hologram onboard the Trade Federation ship in the beginning of the movie.
Raiders of the Lost Ark. So so many!

EPCOT entrance soundtrack, great variety of music. Then on to Tarzan, great upbeat, especially “trash the camp” track.

The OH “A dream is a wish” from Cinderella.
The opening music to A New Hope will always take me back to opening night of the film at Graunan’s Chinese and how my world would never be the same.
