The few remixes on Sonic Gems collection were so halfassed....I mean when I first heard that Sonic Boom DnB crap it reminded me of some Newgrounds Audio newbie stuff. For some reason I don't like Militant Missionary off sonic adventure anymore. The shitty MIDI I stumbled on of it might have ruined that though.
The most annoying music

I really have no dislikes when it comes to retro music, although the Super themes do get annoying, so I tend not to use them.
also for you guys that do not like the "They Call Me Sonic" song, here is a lower pitch one that I think sounds MUCH better.

From every Sonic game I own:
Sonic 1 - Special Stage: Really, just a theme that makes my ears cry (on the contrary, Hidden Palace's theme in Sonic 2 (which is often regarded as a remix to this theme) is somewhat catchy in my opinion.)
Sonic 2 - Death Egg: Same as Sonic 1; really irritating. Options/Level Select: Really work MUCH better for the credits as they are originally.
Sonic 3/S3+ - Main Theme, Invincible/Super transformation, Game Clear, 1-UP, Mini-Boss, Knuckles' theme: No MJ-imposed bias here (as I still like the Credits theme), I've just naturally preferred the Sonic&K versions of the music. Knuckles'/Mini-boss theme gets repetitive very easily.
Only hit the S-Monitor if you just hate your ears.
Flying Battery 1: In Sonic 3 and its S3+ prototypes, (includes S&K 0525) listen carefully to sound $09 (which is FB1). You can hear part of the theme go off-sync. Just something that really bugs me.
Sonic & Knuckles/S3K - ???
Sonic & Knuckles (PC Edition) - Launch Base (in actuality, it's not that bad, but it certainly does NOT fit the stage), Knuckles' theme (Sonic 3)
Sonic Adventure - Mystic Ruin: Nothing really wrong with it, but it's one of those songs I just don't like.
Sonic Adventure 2 - ???
Sonic Advance 1-3 - ???
Sonic Heroes - Team Sonic's Theme, Team Rose's Theme: I don't feel the need to explain these 2.
Sonic Riders - ???
SONIC THE HEDGEHOG - End of the World: Not bad, but it sends shivers down my spine... Solaris Phase 1: Really pales in comparison to the other themes in the game.
Sonic Riders II - Botanical Kingdom, Part 1: Really repetitive.
Smash Bros. Brawl - Dunno if it counts, but I'd have to say Super Sonic Racing from Sonic R.
Sonic Unleashed - Dark Gaia, Phase 1: Like Solaris Phase 1, pales in comparison to the others.
Other Media - Sonic Electronic (arcade)
In General - I don't like most of the vocal music, "We Can" and "Follow Me" (Team Sonic/Rose's themes) I felt necessary to mention because I really despise those two. I've listened to a few of Sonic Rush/Adventure's tracks, and I HATE the idea of vocal tracks as BGM.
The super themes from Sonic 2 and Sonic & Knuckles are not bad if you listen to them once or twice through, but they get repetitive after your, I dunno, 15th time listening through the whole theme. Sonic 3's main theme really works better as a victory fanfare in my opinion.
And on a somewhat off-topic note, I just figured out Sonic 2's Super transformation theme was a remix of the main theme. Stupid, I know, but hey, we all feel like that sometimes

I actually thought Follow Me was okay, at least on an intellectual level. The lyrics were able to stand on their own while fitting Amy's character, and the music was a recapitulation of the first stage's music.
The actual arrangement wasn't that great, though; I can agree on that.
