I have the Titanic soundtrack playing in the background while my young son plays. As the songs come on, they really take you straight back into the movie. Whether you like Titanic or not, it is apparent this soundtrack is an instant classic of connecting you to the movie.

Any other soundtracks take you straight back song after song?

The thread title and your question don't exactly mesh.

I haven't listened to the Titanic Soundtrack in years, but I do remember enjoying it.

As for the question, the Lord of the Rings soundtracks always brings me right back. "Concerning Hobbits" just makes me smile and think of Hobbiton with it's first few notes.

The Matrix music from the lobby shoot out. It sounds like chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga dun dun. Really takes you back.

 

[Master Of Illusion]

The silence in "Silence."

Really takes me back to my first crucifixion in 16th century Japan.

 

[LegendOfKage]

Dirty Dancing.

My personal favorite titanic song

The Akira theme is incredibly modest (a lot of vocals and simple instruments and plenty of repeated tracks in the movie) but holy shit the kaneda theme and hot dog song are catchy AF

Batman Begins had the best soundtrack of that trilogy and whenever I hear it I always think back to the movie.

I believe the gold standard of iconic film soundtracks accessible for everyone is Amelie

I also like the Johnny Greenwood composed soundtrack to There Will Be Blood.

In this vein, surely nothing would be more recognizable as a movie song more than Ecstasy of Gold from The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.
