Probably Define Dancing, Down to Earth, and Horizon 12:2. I also like The Axiom, which few of you would probably pick. It just sounds really poetic and lovely. The whole soundtrack does. Ah, I forgot about The Axiom. It sounds like something straight out of Star Wars to me. And I love the piano on Horizon 12.2; I can only hear piano on two different tracks on the album. And I think the fact that most of the score seems to be harp-based was a beautiful and perfect choice on Newman's part; it's such a beautiful instrument.

I don't remember many of the songs except for the bits from "Hello, Dolly!" I think I went around for days with "Put On Your Sunday Clothes" in my head.

Ooh. Another one I really liked was "Bubble Wrap". I just think it's a really sweet song. And it's just so easy to imagine Wall-E showing Eve all his treasures.

Nice to see some fellow soundtrack aficionados here. I've always found that a (good) soundtrack was an excellent way to relive the movie... the original Star Wars soundtracks probably being the best example. Seeing if listening to it can evoke a replay of the scenes in your mind is often a good judge of how well-crafted a soundtrack is.
My favourites from the Wall-E score... in no particular order:
1. 2815 A.D. - Did a great job at introducing us to the Earth of the future. Fittingly eerie; and everytime I listen to it I can see Wall-E trundling through those deserted streets, alone for centuries, surrounded by skyscrapers of trash.
2. Define Dancing - No surprise here; several others have listed it as well. On top of being among my favourite scenes in the movie itself, the music matched extremely well and was very uplifting.
3. Fixing Wall-E - Another selection from one of my favourite scenes. The first bit brings the tempo down a bit from the previous scene where they escaped being blown out into space, and the second half brings back the "All that Love's About" theme from earlier in the CD, this time in reference to Eve's feelings.
And perhaps an honourable mention should go to the BNL Jingle (quoted below the banner in my signature). Very catchy, lol, and I'm currently using it as a ringtone (along with a wallpaper image of the BNL logo). I curse Rogers for restricting the use of personal MP3s as ringtones, though, and forcing me to trick the phone into thinking the jingle was one of the default rings instead of just simply copying it in.

I gotta go with 2815 A.D. and Define Dancing(particularly 1:21 onwards). Chills every single time.

Actually, I think All That Love's About was also in reference to Eve's feelings. It played when she was watching the contents of her security camera.

Did it really? lol, I guess that's as good a reason as any to go see the movie a 3rd time before it leaves theatres; though I easily could've gone without one ;D Given the name of the track, though, it's possible that the music was still referring to Wall-E... just what he was doing in the recording.

Oh jeez, this is going to be a toughie. I listen to the whole soundtrack non-stop. Here I go (these are in no order):
- Put On Your Sunday Clothes - 2815 A.D. - WALL-E - The Spaceship (especially that one part XD) - Eve - La Vie En Rose - First Date (haha) - The Axiom - BnL (funny to me) - 72 Degrees and Sunny - Define Dancing - No Splashing No Diving - All That Loves About - It Only Takes a Moment - Down to Earth - Horizon 12.2 (what does this track title mean, anyways?)
Yes, I named half the soundtrack. Because really, the soundtrack as a whole is a masterpiece.
