Okay, more favorites...
Land of Snow: Speaks to me of childhood days where snow turned our world into a winter wonderland, with snowmen and snowball fights everywhere. Great theme for the Land of Snow, and a great song for the winter season.
Winter Funfare: Speaks of ... well, the fun side of winter. Sledding, sleigh riding, ice skating. It's pretty good, though the track Land of Snow (which has a similiar theme about the sense of magic and wonder about winter and snow) still outranks it on my personal favorites list.
Wander: Not to be confused with Wonder, this is a song that speaks to me of just wandering around the countryside, taking in the sights as we pass by. It's good travelling music.
Wonder: This one unlocks just north of the Zamorak temple at the west entrance to the Wilderness, and reflects looking around at an empty, barren wasteland wondering about just what caused it to become the way it is now .. a lifeless, sad, place.
Harmony: Speaks of a small, but very active and prosperous town where there's a lot to do. Later on, there are a few drumbeats hinting that there may be some less pleasant things around the edges of the town (in this case, it'd be the goblins and the ruined buildings), but all in all, it's a good place if you're looking for work, or quests, or places to shop at.
Looking Back: This one is a slight variation on Scape Original, and unlocks in the Varrock Museum. Thus, it seems to invite one to look back at not only the in-game history of Gielinor, but the history of RuneScape the game.
And of course I like Scape Soft and Scape Original, too. Scape Santa and Scape Scared are fun variants.
That's all for now. If I can think of any more favorites, I'll post them in here.

Two songs from the game are fantastic these song simply made me feel like the soundtrack was godly.
1: these stones: a song that plays in the mage training arena the first time i heard this i could not believe my ears the gentle notes but strong tone set it up for a unforgettable song and the slight tinkering that change it are astounding too bad most people don’t pay attention to the lobby song due to rushing, the song is easy to obtain and a absolute classic piece of music it reminds me of some of Nobuo Uematsu classic works in his games.
2: inadequacy: the mood to this boss fight was dark and the literal embodiment of fear and not only does the boss fight itself very symbolic of something you think you can’t defeat, but also the music sets the feeling for it, the thought that you are not worth it, the idea of never being able do what everyone expects and the hopelessness of one’s own fear of never being able to achieve. The notes themselves set the song up in such a way that the main instrument starts out as a background instrument, but then slowly it advances into the main and at the songs ****** it goes into a sharp violin/chelo march, then it strolls into a stronger and more moving part of the song. To finally finish it they add a great loop that is almost unnoticeable. Kudos to you guys at the audio team and may you enjoy your jobs.
Runescape’s soundtrack in general shows how work can create so many good songs for one game. I’m sure if you took all the songs together you would get a few days of music. May prosperity follow your footsteps.

Personally, my favourite Tracks would have to be informally known as the 'Theme of Zaros'. I recently finished 'The Temple At Senntisten' and was amazed during the final moments of the quest the track "Zaros Stirs". Such a strong sense of mysteriousness eminates from this track, and it reflects the aspect of the unknown in the god Zaros, who personally is my favourite god at the moment.
Also, there is a second track to this 'Theme' : "Zaros Zeitgeist". For those who don't know (I didn't) a 'Zeitgeist' is basically a 'spirit of the age'. So basically, This is Zaros' Spirit of the age, seeing as his reign was during the Fourth age, i think. So if you haven't guessed already, This track is unlocked in the Zaros boss room in the God Wars Dungeon, AKA The Ancient Prison, or, where The strongest monster in RuneScape resides, Nex. Nex translates to 'Death' or 'Murder' in latin. The difference in these two tracks is that Zaros Zeitgeist is particularly more upbeat, with a continuing drum line through the entire song. It goes for roughly 8 minutes, which means Jagex put a lot of time into this track, which means they're trying to give players the best experience while fighting such a tough monster. The drums really suit for the final Boss fight of Zaros. I’ve listened to a lot of the RuneScape music, and i must say Jagex really outdid themselves when making these two tracks.
On a final note, it would be nice if Jagex were pre-recorded, mixed, and put into the game live recordings of the songs with say, a symphony orchestra, but of course, with the current 765 tracks that would take so much time and effort on Jagex’s part.
