Thierry may see these kinds of list threads as a blight, but one thing they've done is prompted me to go back into my collection and explore stuff I hadn't listened to in a long time (listening to Accidental Tourist right now), or search out new things I've seen people list that I wasn't aware of before.
It kind of helps to winnow down a world of choices (as far as new purchases, etc) if I know someone else values something that I'm totally ignorant of.
As far as Williams cues go, my #1 would probably be the Love Theme from Superman.
After that it gets hard.
Probably something from Jaws 2, and then something from Empire Strikes back.
Though I no longer love the movie, the score for E.T. still tickles my happy spot in a way only a very few scores can.
It my be the height of bourgeoisie taste in film score circles, but I grew up in Williams heyday. I faintly recall being taken to Poseidon Adventure as a toddler and was the perfect age to experience every other big event film from S&L starting with Jaws on opening day.
Williams music was the instrumental soundtrack for my adolescence, the way it was for a lot of other Gen X'ers, I'm sure.
All this stuff is embedded in my DNA now.
