Well, think about this:
If it's Radiata Stories, then it's from tri-Ace.
If it's tri-Ace, then mostly likely the composer is Motoi Sakuraba.
If it's Motoi Sakuraba, then usually some of the compositions are recycled from older games.
If it's Ethereal/Iseria Queen, then most probably (using the earlier statement) is Incarnation of the Devil, Mighty Blow, or Beast of Prey. Most likely Incarnation of the Devil or Mighty Blow, and much more likely to be Mighty Blow.
If not any of the above, then it's either the typical boss battle theme (which is unique to every game), or it's one of the earlier with a different name, or the composer isn't Motoi Sakuraba and hence it can't be any of the earlier. Or very, very rarely, an appearance of Ethereal/Iseria Queen isn't accompanied with Mighty Blow or Incarnation of the Devil.
Leave it to tri-Ace to use repetitive battle music every now and then.
UPDATE: And if it IS the Ethereal Queen battle, it's Incarnation of the Devil. tri-Ace games are utterly predictable.

My favourite boos music would have to be when you're fighting Seymour flux in Final Fantasy X... It makes the fight so suspensful and did sounds so great :]... I also like all the battle music in dot.hack... they personally all sound great and the music in it really matches the themes =]
my very favourite FF boss music are Otherworld [when we fight Jecht in FFX]. also One Winged Angel in FFVII.
those songs are great!!! i love the electric guitar sound..
BLACK★ROCK SHOOTER 初音ミク
B.A.U:

But the best ones are I think boss battle ff4 and final battle song fight necron ff9 I think aree great songs. Lol
But I sit there and listen to ff music
So I love the greatness of all the music
Its a madhouse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A MADHOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AAAAAA MADDDHOUSSSSEEEEE!!!!!!!!
One Winged Angel - Final Fantasy 7
Boss Themes are almost always epic, but there are a couple that really stood out to me.
Firstly, "Last Battle" from Xenosaga Episode I: Der Wille Zur Macht. If I remember correctly, the game always used the same music during every other battle (which was great battle music anyway, so it got away with it), except for the final one, which made it all the more special. The music really gave you a feeling that indeed it was the last battle, and everything rides on this.
And secondly, "Subete no Hito no Tamashii no Tatakai" from Persona 3. The music from this game was more or less hit or miss with me, but this final boss music really stood out. I always love when they take melodies from other songs from the soundtracks and turn it into something godly for the music of the final battle, it almost forces you to kind of look back on the game as a whole, truly reminding you that you've worked too hard to get this far, and won't allow yourself to be defeated now!
JENOVA is awesome, I have it on my MP3 player, I just think its epic
I really like Ultimecias boiss music for her final form, sadly I dont have the ost for FFVIII, only VII, this is something Il have to rectify
Ohhh Otherworld, now that's an awesome one, I first heard that and I was like, yes please, I'm into this! It is Otherworld that plays during the Jecht fight innit...?
one winged angel was pretty epic.... and so was the jeacht battle song
The 13th struggle is a awesome melody from Kingdom Hearts 2 and I also enjoy Dark Messenger from Final Fantasy IX and The Wavering Blade, which is Beatrix's theme.
The Wavering Blade: YouTube - Final Fantasy IX Music - The Wavering Blade (Beatrix Battles)
Dark Messenger: YouTube - Final Fantasy IX Music - The Darkness of Eternity
13th Struggle: YouTube - Kingdom Hearts II Music - The 13th Struggle
My things:
Of cource this is an opinion but T.G., I think you missed one that is very important.
The theme played when you battle the Four Elemental Archfiends on Final Fantasy Four. I can't understand why but I have been listening to it non stop for the passed three weeks.(Ever since I started playing FFIV)
One Winged Angel AC version! Only one word to describe. Epic!

Final Fantasy has some pretty great Boss themes, but for this post, I'm going to focus on other games that I think have great ones.
I love the boss theme when you face off against Bowser in Super Mario Galaxy! The orchestration is pretty epic, but what makes it even more grand is that when you hit Bowser, a chorus is added to the orchestration:
YouTube - Super Mario Galaxy Music: Final Bowser Battle
Here's a track of the chorus:
YouTube - Super Mario Galaxy Music: Bowser Battle Chorus
Here's some others that I like.
The fight against Master Hand in SSBB:
YouTube - Super Smash Bros Brawl - Master Hand
The battle against Smithy in Super Mario RPG: TLOTSS
YouTube - Super Mario RPG Music: Smithy Final Boss Battle (1)
Nearly all tracks in Shadow of the Colossus (here's just a couple). What makes this music really great is that it changes depending on how you're faring against the Colossus.

Mine would have to be all versions of One-Winged Angel, Battle on the Big Bridge (FFV), all the versions of the battle themes, all the boss music of FF games, and definitely all the ending themes for the Final Fantasy games for sure to name only a few.
Boss music eh? I think i have some favorites.
FFV: Battle on Big Bridge
FFVI: Decisive Battle and Battle to the Death
Megaman X1: Sigma 1st Battle
all Zelda boss battles
Kirby Superstar: Marx battle
Super Mario 64: Final Bowser
Super Metroid: Ridey/Escape theme
Terranigma: Dark Gaia battle
Final Fantasy VII: Birth of a God
Sonic 2: Final Boss
Secret of Mana: Boss Battle and Meridian Dance
Chrono Trigger: all boss battles
Earthbound: Boss theme and Pokey Means Business
Mother 3: Natural Killer Cyborg, Battle against Porkey/Pokey, and Misplaced Revenge
Currently Playing:
The Extreme in FFVIII, love the cries at the start.
"Excuse me Miss, do you like pineapple?"
"I don't want to achieve immortality through my work, I want to achieve it through not dying"
Simple. ANY FFVII boss music, but preferably the AC version. The AC version of JENOVA is definitely my favourite.
