SBTRKT's "Wildfire" track is pretty awesome out of the HD650s:

This song sounds excellent on my Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro-80's.

I always surprise people with a really underrated track by Michael Jackson.
 
2000 Watts from his Invincible album.
 
MJ's vocals are very deep voice (for him) and the bass track actually makes me turn off the music for awhile. So much bass impact going on for a good period of time that it makes my ears/head hurt.
 
Another track is
 
Come With Me by Maria Buena
 
Latin jazz with excellent sound. I can't praise this song enough. :)
 
Both make my M50s sound phenominal.

Always love fIREHOSE Brave Captain, especially on Grados.
 

First time I heard this was the Natas Kaupas section of the 1989 Santa Cruz Streets on Fire video.

Pretty much anything by Enya but especially Shepard Moons and Caribbean Blue
 
Don't Worry, Be Happy by Bobby McFerrin sounds amazingly clear on any half decent headphone.
 
You Shook Me All Night Long by AC/DC.
 
I Can See Clearly Now by Johnny Nash
 
The best I can think of right now is When You Were Mine from the album Dirty Mind by Prince.  Sounds amazingly good for a 1980 recording, especially the guitar.  A good pair of headphones makes it sound like you are there sitting beside him in the studio.
 
Many more but can't think of any off hand.

Rodrigo and Gabriela have a new disc out today.
New Caribbean flavored renditions of previous recordings.
 
Good stuff.

If you're a fan of orchestral arrangements, listen to this piece from the Professor Layton game series: 

 
It is absolutely phenomenal on the HD650s, but if you get a chance, find it lossless and play it through your speakers... Absolutely amazing! So spacious, incredibly dynamic.
