I usually love David Lynch's title sequences:

Sadly, can't find my favorites on Youtube- Blue Velvet and especially Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. The latter is amazing in so many ways- Badalamenti's theme, the gradual pullout from TV static, and the horrifying ending.

My favorite is Nilsson singing the closing credits to the great, waaay underrated Skidoo:

And here he sings a bit of it on Playboy After Dark with nasty Otto Preminger prodding him (starting around 6:30):
