The songs that the developers choose for the openings/endings of anime are often quite catchy or just fun to listen to.

My personal favorite is:

Dango Daikazoku (ED of Clannad)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvzCmV3_12c

Some other good ones are:

Nee (OP of Hiiro no Kakera)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcLJI1vKA4U

Aoi Shiori (OP of Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae o Bokutachi wa Mada Shiranai)

http://vimeo.com/41425734

Manatsu no Photograph (ED of Astarotte no Omocha) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6uMlO3fOZKc&feature=related)

Orange (ED 2 of ToraDora!) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4iSZzfKgqM)
Check out the Citrus Mix of it too! Orange ~Citrus Mix~ (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXnNyxllE8M)

Vidro Moyou (ED of Ano Natsu de Matteru) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCEV4Ffy6WQ)

Only My Railgun (OP 1 of Toaru Kagaku no Railgun) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdI6Firnz1k)

So, what are some songs that you would like to share?
(Songs from movies based on the anime are exceptional)

Lets see here.. I love a lot of the openings and endings from the anime I watch, so this might be a slightly long list. xD

Openings:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlHQAv-7zlA
Check My Soul, from Amagami SS+. Catchy song, and the animation is pretty good. xD

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nYgRlZce78Y
This Illusion, from Fate/Stay Night. The anime Opening is called "Disillusion," but I like this version more, as its from the VN, and it's more rock-oriented.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2UcNzudytI
Irony, from Ore no Imouto. Again, great song and good OP animations.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehaNcTYgYAw
Super Affection, from Carnival Phantasm. I would be amiss if I didn't include this. great fun. xD

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyWHy7C3pig
Pre Parade, from Toradora. Love it, but then again, what's not to love with Toradora? = P

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAJDVRDhBH8
To the Beginning, from Fate/Zero. Amazingly epic, and it's just great. So so good.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvE74C-paxw
God Only Knows, from The World God Only Knows. The full version is 8 minutes, but just amazing. Love.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-vhjfGS8bs
My Soul, Your Beats from Angel Beats. It's just so powerful, and great.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oj-gT2kqeEw
Open Your Mind, from Ah! My Goddess. Inb4 Eyan posts the same, I ended up really liking this song. xD

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_zQwJo92lQ&feature=related
Meteor Impact! From.. Well, Ore no Imouto, but it's an in-series anime called Stardust Witch Meruru. I love it. xD

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_5r5u6XfLM
I Love, from Amagami SS. Took me a while to get used to this, but I fell in love with it.

http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrMwo8PbjoE
Bouken Desho Desho, from the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. I would be amiss if I didn't include this. It's just so catchy.. the song is perfect. And as for the animation, it's just awesome after you hear "You'll be right." It's like a fantasy world. xD

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VatkGGooKrI
Not an anime per se, but it will be soon, so.. Yeah. It's a great great song, and I can't wait to see the OP for it around October when the anime comes around!


Endings:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4k6HWcf6jM
Dango Daikazoku, from Clannad. I've already seen it above. Anybody who has watched Clannad and the After Story will probably be sad from just hearing this song, lol.. otherwise, it's a nice, fun sounding song. xD

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qlssPLILJE
Masquerade, from ore no Imouto. This serious is interesting because every ED is different.. this is one of my personal favorite endings. It has such a TOuhou feel to it, or something like that.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3G0HpPL5zIQ
Nageki no Tenshi, from Amagami SS. Such a sad song, especially after seeing the lyrics.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSPg0Is5cXs&feature=related
Koi wa Mizuiro, from amagami SS. Tainers would kill me if I didn't include this, but I've ended up really liking it too. Wonderful catchy song. xD

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8M0baEM-zgA
Vanilla Salt, from Toradora. Like I said before, whats not to like about Toradora? Plus, the fade-in is awesome, and they always have a perfect place for it to start fading into this song. xD

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5G5bD2Do-k
Hare Hare Yukai, from the Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi. This is just too good, and I've seen it everywhere.. but again, amazingly catchy. xD


I think that's my list. Apparently I really like OPs over EDs, but oh well. Forgive me for taking up half of the page. xD

My favorite OP:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rS7IjBJgJvE But I like the Be Starters! mix more. My favorite ED:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETbEtbE28VA and
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEkerSi5Fig The endings are a tie between these two from Fullmetal Alchemist.

There's actually another opening that is quite similar.
Destin Histoire (OP of Gosick)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlDLgyz3-S0&feature=related

There's even a comparison video.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WF84TcOfdo

As you can tell, the pitch of the songs are different.

There are even mashups with Destin Histoire pitched up to match Sora Iro Days. Or Sora Iro Days pitched down to match Destin Histoire.

^ Get yo game on sunny.

For anime openings.

The First Darker than black op: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmS7XiFCtZY
At first I wasn't too fond of it, but the heavy metal really grew on me, now it's one of my favourites.

Fate/stay night op: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GWRJHeQha6A
Wow it took me way longer than i thought to find a good version of this. Anywho, despite the anime being a bad depiction of the novel, they made one heck of an opening for this series, seriously when I watch anime I usually skip op's after seeing it over and over again to save time, but I couldn't do it for F/SN, the OP was just too good. It's a shame they changed it for the second half. #sadface

Amagami SS - ED 4 - Koi wa mizuiro: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMGtP2zF_AU
SURFACE OF THE POOL!!!!!!1111!!!! Seriously, this song is one of the greatest anime songs I've ever heard, I listen to this every second day, and that's considered a lot for me since I don't listen to music that often anymore. On a scale of shallow end to deep end, deep end being like, the good part of the pool. This song would be at the bottom of the deep end, where all good songs about pool surfaces belong.

Kimi no Shiranai Monogatari (Bakemonogatari ED) is probably my favorite, I must've listened to it nonstop for a month.
Everything from Toradora! is fantastic. I always had the biggest smile on my face whenever the second ending faded in haha.

The openings for Ore no Imouto and Madoka (Irony and Connect respectively) by ClariS were both pretty good too.

Fate/Zero openings are epic.

The FLOW songs Days and Colors (Eureka 7 and Code Geass 1st OPs) were great as well. World's End (Code Geass R2 OP 2) deserves a mention too.

Fairy Tail 1st OP (Snow Fairy) was great as well. That about sums up the ones I can think of.

I always liked this ending from Soul Eater for some reason:


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oez5zrA0C9E

It probably has something to do with the awesome music sync at one point and the color that you start off being deprived until that very moment. Also, I like the harmony.

I can't seem to find a video for it but the first opening to the anime Gintama was always a favorite of mine.
Others include:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a395j405k8A
I like this particular ending because it really highlights how dark Soul Eater could be.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9RYglTDEBA
This one because it's silly, just like the anime...
