Dancing Mad, of course. One Winged Angel, while undeniably iconic, ultimately just belongs to Sephiroth. Dancing Mad is much more of a culmination of the grand saga that led up to this final conflict, opening with a callback to the overture that both opens the game and plays during its most significant moment when the world is doomed to destruction (there's also the repeat of the grim organ title crawl that heralds Kefka himself when he finally descends on the battle). I absolutely love it when final battles either replay or make obvious callbacks to a particular beginning-game track, like Super Castlevania 4 switching to the triumphant Simon's Theme during the final phase of the Dracula battle; it really helps bring the adventure full-circle. And of course there's the multi-layered phases of the track that perfectly match the feel of the boss phase you're fighting; I'm too nostalgic for this game to comment on whether or not it 'holds up,' but like the Opera House before it, it was just mind-blowing as a kid that the music seemed to so effortlessly transition to fit the mood throughout the fight.
