Stage 6 boss: Septette for the Dead Princess (EoSD)
Extra stage: Alice in Wonderland (MS)

Ending: Forest of Tohno (SoEW)/Darkening Dusk (SWR); they're both too good to choose from D: (and yes, I did just put a SoEW song first, what of it?)
Staff Roll: Oriental Memory of Foregathering Dream (IaMP)
HRtP: Eternal Shrine Maiden (Oh god I love this song)
PoDD: Lost Dream
IaMP: Broken Moon (second favorite song BTW)
PoFV: Fate of 60 Years
StB: Wind God Girl (it can't really count as PoFV anyway)
SWR: Bhava-Agra as seen from a Child's Mind
Favorite CD song: The Strange Everyday Life of the Flying Shrine Maiden (which I do not believe has one single remix to its name)

Stage 5 boss: Sleeping Terror

Azinth:
I commented on the few that I actually had something to say about. Once again, I'm including Shuusou Gyoku, since ZUN wrote it's music. I also might not remember all the names offhand.
Menu: UFO's is great, and the only one I'd want to listen to outside of the game. Nice and serene.
Stage 1: Dream Express(MS)
Stage 1 boss: A Tiny Tiny Clever Commander (UFO)
Stage 2: End of Daylight(SoEW)
Stage 2 boss: Beware the Umbrella left for 10000 years(UFO)
Stage 3: Romantic Children(MS)
Stage 3 boss: Doll Judgment(PCB)
Stage 4: The Capital City of Flowers in the Sky(PCB). Probably my favorite Touhou song. Honorable mention goes to Alice Maestra, which is incidentally my favorite pc-98 song (why does no one ever talk about this track? It's freaking amazing).
Stage 4 boss: Maiden's Capriccio(LLS). I actually think that Love Colored Magic and LLS Maiden's Capriccio are superior to the Windows versions. Even if the sound quality is worse, the arrangements fit them better.
Stage 5: The Primal Scene of Japan the Girl Watched(MoF)
Stage 5 boss: Magical Girls' Crusade(SG)
Stage 6: Hellfire Mantle(SA)
Stage 6: Oh god don't make me choose D: I suppose I would go with Septette(EoSD), but truly all of them are viable candidates for best song in the series. The only one I don't really like is Lunatic Princess, which has a badass intro but then devolves into mediocrity shortly afterward.
EX: Tomorrow will be Special(MoF). Best song from MoF. Honorable mention goes to Silk Road Alice(SG) and Alice in Wonderland(MS)
EX boss: Witches Ball ~Magus and Dichromatic Butterfly ~Ancients(SG). I actually find most EX boss themes to be kinda overrated (not bad mind you, just overrated), but these songs are awesome and I never get tired of them.
Ending: SG's (forget the name). Amazing melodies in this one. Once again, it's the only one I'd bother to listen to outside of the game.

Oh, I was wrestling between Fall of Fall and Alice Maestra, but Fall of Fall won out in the end.
Also, I find Dream Battle to be highly superior to the original Maiden's Capriccio. The original was good, but it didn't do much with itself. The IN version turns it into a blood pumping chase/battle theme. If 3rd Eye weren't so OMG Dream Battle would have won out.

I actually like the original Capriccio better, because Dream Battle's a bit too hardcore for Reimu in my opinion. Both of them are awesome, though.
Obobobo fav themes. Most of them are PC-98(especially the stage themes).
Title: Gonna have to go with Wondrous Romance ~ Mystic Square. It has bits of Grimoire of Alice and is therefore awesome.
Stage 1 Theme: Witching Dream, Reimu's LLS stage 1 theme. Pretty much my fave theme in the series.
Stage 1 Boss Theme: Originally She's in a temper!! but now Tiny Tiny Clever Commander wins.
Stage 2 Theme: Dimension of Reverie. Most of the other stage 2 themes suck.
Stage 2 Boss Theme: ...Spiritual Heaven or Scarlet Symphony (if including Shuusou Gyoku, then Disastrous Gemini is in there too). Again, most of the other ones suck.
Stage 3 Theme: Bad Apple, Walking the Streets of a Former Hell, Romantic Children, Sky Ruins, or The Doll Maker of Bucuresti. I like the tune of The Gensokyo the Gods Loved, but I don't like the instruments used.
Stage 3 Boss Theme: Plain Asia. No contest.
Stage 4 Theme: Alice Maestra or Retribution for the Eternal Night.
Stage 4 Boss Theme: Satori Maiden ~ 3rd Eye. Awesome, awesome, awesome.
Stage 5 Theme: Lotus Love
Stage 5 Boss Theme: Lunar Clock ~ Luna Dial.
Stage 6 Theme: Ultimate Truth or The Young Descendant of Tepes.
Stage 6 Boss Theme: The Venerable Ancient Battlefield ~ Suwa Foughten Field.
Extra Stage Theme: Man, they're all awesome D: Notable ones for me are Extend Ash, Alice in Wonderland, Extra Love, and Last Remote.
Extra Stage Boss Theme: The Grimoire of Alice. Definitely.
Ending Theme: The Earth Spirits' Homecoming, and Darkening Dusk.
Staff Roll: Oriental Evening Sky or Oriental Memory of Forgathering Dream.
Overall Favorite Boss Theme: Plain Asia was the first one I really fell in love with.
Overall Favorite Stage Theme: Witching Dream--again, fell in love with it.
Favorite Highly Responsive to Prayers theme: The Positive and Negative.
Favorite Story of Eastern Wonderland theme: I actually liked a LOT of the songs in SoEW, but my top faves are Hakurei, She's in a Temper, Himorogi, and Extra Love.
Favorite Phantasmagoria of Dim. Dream theme: Decisive Magic Battle, Love of Magical Chimes, Eternal Full Moon, or Sailor of Time for that percussion bit in the middle.
Favorite Lotus Land Story theme: ...Pretty much ALL of the stage themes (except for Dream Land, twas a bit too dull for a final stage imo), Perdition Crisis, Inanimate Dream, and Innocence.
Favorite Mystic Square theme: Doll of Misery, Infinite Being, Alice in Wonderland, or Grimoire of Alice.
Favorite Shuusou Gyoku theme: ...Magus, Primrose Shiver, or Mechanical Circus ~ Reverie.
Favorite Embodiment of Scarlet Devil theme: Luna Dial or Apparitions Stalk the Night.
Favorite Perfect Cherry Blossom theme: bleeeeeeh, I thougt all the tracks were pretty equal to each other (read: none of the tracks were that great :V). If I had to pick a fave, it'd be Deep Mountain, Cherry Blossoms of Sumizome (NOT Yuyu's last word theme) or Till When.
Favorite Immaterial and Missing Power theme: Broken Moon or Evening Star. Both awesome.
Favorite Imperishable Night theme: Plain Asia, Extend Ash, or Gensokyo Millenium.
Favorite Phantasmagoria of Flower View theme: I hated most of the soundtrack--the only ones I could stand were Mound of Life and Wind God Girl, although I've grown to love Higan Retour.
Favorite Shoot the Bullet theme: Retrospective Kyoto.
Favorite Mountain of Faith theme: Faith is for the Transient People or Suwa Foughten Field.
Favorite Scarlet Weather Rhapsody theme: Darkening Dusk or Flowering Night(CELLOOOOO).
Favorite Subterranean Animism theme: Satori Maiden ~ 3rd Eye.
Favorite Undefined Fantastic Object theme: A Tiny Tiny Clever Commander.
-----
Favorite Reimu theme: Mystic Oriental Love Consultation (PoDD)
Favorite Marisa theme: Love Colored Magic/Master Spark (SoEW/IN), because although they're not the best-sounding, I think they fit Marisa best--a playful, cheeky, powerful magician.
Favorite Mima theme: Complete Darkness (SoEW), because Reincarnation...honestly isn't THAT great. Neither one of her themes are very good, tbh.
Favorite Yuka theme: Sleeping Terror (LLS). Captures her power and slight insanity well.
Favorite Sakuya theme: Luna Dial (EoSD, fave version is IaMP). Flowering Night is okay, but Luna Dial fits Sakuya better.
Favorite Yukari theme: Evening Star (IaMP, the SWR version sucked). Necrofantasia is full-out power, and while Evening Star is also powerful, it's...sly(lack of better word) and cunning, a perfect fit for Yukarin.
Favorite Alice theme: Grimoire. Doll Judgment can burn.
...That's it. I think.
