For me, the Portals 2 ending song was the best song in a videogame ever.

Chrono Cross has the best soundtrack in gaming history. Choose any one song. I choose this one.
Yes, the portals end song was such a pleasant surprise. Now I want to play the game again.
I also love TLOU ending music
Donkey Kong 2: Bramble Blast is amazing. Actually, all the David Wise soundtracks are amazing. But I especially like his work on Donkey Kong Country
But the best single song ?
It has to be stealth bastards/stealth incs boss music
Just gets your heart pumping, like a boss battle should do.
Civilization 4 song is also the most epic song in a video game ever, in my opinion.
ahhhh yes how could i forget this? wonderbar
This was already performed by poets of the fall before the game's release but it was used in Max Payne 2 by Remedy . War by poets of the fall in Alan Wake is my 2nd favorite .
As for real in game song , that is ending song of Portal 2 but you've already posted it .
Alela Diane- Take us back The walking dead season one really hits your hard....Especially after that ending.
Followed closely by:
They may not be the most "catchy" video game tunes, but they come attached with some serious emotional energy within the context of their respective games. Far more than any other game to date.
Serious Sam 3 soundtrack was freaking amazing and perfectly in line with the fast paced action of the game
@big_mak523 Yes...the Chrono Cross OST is amazing!
Most memorable OSTs for me...
Mega Man X Ost (really any of the tracks) is etched into my mind. The intro theme from X1 is awesome though...
The Mortal Kombat OST is great too. The MK Deadly Alliance Character Select music is one of my favorites...
The Metroid Prime series also has a killer soundtrack. Phendrana Drifts is great...
Most recently, the Killer Instinct theme is a work of genius...
Way too many good ones to name just one.
Homeworld - Adagio for Strings
Bastion End Theme
Battlefield Bad Company - The Beast
Ace Combat 5 - The Unsung War
These are just a taste of the incredibly diverse and high quality music that is found in video games. You can't possibly narrow it down to one.
Hell this thread is loaded with fantastic pieces of music featured in video games. It's sad that people write off this music as "video game music" and put it in the same league as 8 bit soundtracks from the NES days like the Super Mario Bros and Tetris Theme. Video game music today is some of the highest quality in any media. It's a shame so many people don't realize that.
This song makes me want to be a loving, peaceful person when I'm angry, annoyed, or upset. Very powerful

^You're winner.
There's a reason why that game got a 10/10 here. The Music is one of those reasons.
BUT I'D SAY A COMBINATION OF BOTH CROSS AND TRIGGER ARE THE BEST!
Imho:
Soundtracks aside, these games are imho pure perfection.
Rockstar tried, but completely missed the noir setting of the franchise.
Oh yeah, also, I liked these two from NFS Unleashed 2. Rise Against and 30 Seconds To Mars fans will probably hate those, but imho they perfectly fit the "racing environment" of the game...
Since you're asking for the best song and not just music, then it's To The Moon - Everything's Alright.

You've earned my respect .
