Because for some reason we didn't have a thread for this.
Simple enough, just specify your top 10 (or more) favourite Touhou themes, and say if it includes arranges or not (because this happens. At least to me.)
As for me, well... This is without arranges:
10. Watatsuki's Spell Card ~ Lunatic Blue
I've recently become very attached to this theme for some reason... I don't know why personally, I just did. Maybe it has something to do with me clearing FMWE not too long ago...?
Oh well, the thing is theMary Sue's Watatsuki's have this theme I really like, and I really need to read SSiB just to appreciate it even more.
9. Tabula Rasa ~ The Empty Girl
I completely forgot why I like this theme. Ellen's theme is one of those themes that to me does not seem like it would be fitting for a boss... Then again, Ellen isn't kind of a dangerous magician, what with her forgetting stuff easily and everything. To be fair, Ellen is one of my favourite characters (despite whatever the sorter may say) and this theme is a reason why.
8. Kobito of the Shining Needle ~ Little Princess
Such a big theme for a such a little being. Little Princess is my favourite DDC theme and I tend to put it alongside Emotional Skyscraper or Suwa Foughten Field in terms of overwhelming. I don't really like Sukuna that much... But her theme deserves a good spot on my list.
7. Himorogi, Burn in Violet
Why does Marisa always seem to get the best stage themes? To be honest, I like Himorogi because of the reference to FFVI... But the stage theme still has that ZUN charm to it that I really like... Too bad it's not Marisa's actual theme in SoEW.ZUN give us an arrange of this dammiiiiiiiiiiiiit
6. Fires of Hokkai
DEM. FUCKING. HEARTBEATS. I really like this theme. I really fucking do. Just listen to it. Just do it. COME ON. ... okay I better give an actual reason. Fires of Hokkai gives me a really "this is the end" feeling, fitting for a Stage 6 and such an epic battle. Those heartbeats just make everything better, and it conveys my feelings so well... My heart was pumping as I travelled through the stage. And I keep thinking those heartbeats are mine. Anyway, let's go on.
5. U.N Owen was Her?
"But Shadie! You said hundreds of times that you don't like the original!" ... And I don't. Not that much, anyway. Still, the theme that conveys the little playful, perhaps a little insane, Flandre deserves some merit from being one of the first Touhou themes I've ever heard. ... and it has grown on me. A little. ... Just a little.
4. Because Princess Inada is Scolding Me
I feel like dancing whenever I listen to this. And it's really catchy. Themes do not need to be absurdly long to be awesome, and this theme shows why.
3. Poison Body ~ Forsaken Doll
If you were an abandoned doll, left around in a poisonous field... What would be your theme? Probably this. I like Medicine and I should read up more about her. Her theme sounds so... Melancholic (HAHAHAHA SEE WHAT I DID THERE?!). So yeah, I really like it. Bronze medal for you, Medicine. Stay strong.
2. Kid's Festival ~ Inno- HAHAHAHA! JUST FOOLING WITH YA! Honorable mention, though.
2. Magic Mirror
The original Maiden's Capriccio gets a silver medal (come on, just listen to the melody). I never played HRtP, and I have this strange headcanon that Kurumi is Elis after she has been defeated by Reimu and seeks revenge outside of Makai. I like Magic Mirror because I like Elis. I need to play HRtP, though.Oh yeah, and Kikuri exists and stuff.
And the gold medal goes to...

1. Plastic Mind
This theme... has a lot of nostalgia for me. I should really get into why someday, and tell my history with Touhou... Let's just say it's the reason why I like Alice (and MariAri) so much. I have nothing else to say. Now let me wipe off my tears...
