Songs that make you think of Elite

As the title says, are there any pieces of music that make you think of, or want to play, everyone's favourite spaceship game?

Some of mine:

Spaceship Superstar- Prism
Space Truckin'- Deep Purple
Orion- Metallica
The Planets (full suite)- Gustav Holst
 
Call me cliche, but for me, pretty much any song that takes place during space battles from the Original Star Wars Trilogy gets me pumped for ED. Especially when I'm flying into an asteroid field, if you know what I mean ;)
 
Anything with ambient synth sounds immediately reminds me of elite dangerous. :)
LOL, Forza Motorsport 6 has a sound in the menu/lobby BGM which sounds disconcertingly similar to ED's thrice-cursed "buzzcrash". Startles me every time :)
 
Griegs In the hall of the mountain king. i get frontier or manic miner every time. :)

Good choices, all. Some more:

Aces High- Iron Maiden (can't believe I omitted it from 1st list, it's even in my sig!)
Highway to the Danger Zone- Kenny Loggins (X-Terminator's post got this in)
Cluster One- Pink Floyd
Learning to Fly- Pink Floyd
Marooned- Pink Floyd
 
Listening to Lave Radio a while back & the theme tune to Elite Frontier was played. Not heard that since about 96, made my hair stand on end.
 
Anything with ambient synth sounds immediately reminds me of elite dangerous. :)

Bretts got it right....for me, anything by 65DaysofStatic or Mogwai nails it everytime. No matter the track, it always seamlessly blends with whatever your doing in the game :)
 
I also get pumped for ED with Orion by Metallica.

Rocket-Def Leppard
Over the Hills and Far Away-Led Zeppelin

Any song that inspires feeling of freedoms or a journey.
