HALO 4 SONG - RECLAIMER (By Miracle Of Sound)

[@scourge7373]

I think the saddest part of the end was the fact that Master Chief, meant to be empowering and able to do anything, designed as a master soldier, was stripped of any feeling of control. The only thing he couldn't do was save her, and left him powerless under the thought that he could only watch

[@TridentZero]

Reason why I love Gavin's music. He puts so many things into the lyrics of his songs from the games that ACTUALLY make sense with the song itself. He's not just mushing a bunch of references into it. That's talent.

[@miracleofsound]

Sometime the best songs by an artist are ones that take a while to grow on you ;)

[@alexandruvasile9776]

For 11 years I've been listening to your music and I keep coming back, ever since I found the Commander Shepard song. Then I listened to everything else and it's been an amazing journey. From Witchers and trolls to High-Tech Cathedrals. Cheers and thanks for everything, Gav!

[@TarasKozubskyy]

Same here. 11 years since I found Sovngarde Song. Love your songs. Greetings from Ukraine!

[@VortokMercadia]

This one absolutely took awhile for me to get at a deeper level, though I still always enjoyed it.

[@miracleofsound]

Yep, I made the album mix 3.43 deliberately, thought it would be a nice touch :)

These days, I'm on a Miracle of Sound spree. This made me want to play Halo and as such is one reason why I bought an Xbox. What I love about your songs is how they express the heart of a game's story in few words. Like this, raw and poetic at the same time: "There is blood pumping through your machine of a heart". Okay, enough gushing! :)

[@Triumphinglory]

Gav, you freaking nailed the tone of Halo 4's relationship between the chief and Cortana, I really hope someone from 343 sees this and asks you to write a song or two for them

[@falconiscool21]

RIP Cortana, "You were there by my side, all through it all..." Remember and Believe 117

[@ElfInflicted]

"Old rivalries are so hard to mend, were it so easy to choose your friends..." I cannot even explain to people how those words make me feel. I'm like, "Because the Arbiter said it, about the Chief, and then he said it /again/ about the Chief, but all these things had happened and it meant something different and and and..." And then people kind of back away slowly.

[@21Marineboy]

Gavin, have you ever thought about doing a remix of this song with a female duet to sing the Cortana parts?

[@TheTacolishus]

to be fair, to me this entire song is from Cortana's Perspective

[@redbard4300]

Thinking of cortana going "Reclaimer.. Yeah" Is sorta funny, but yes the song is from her perspective.

[@santihodge5278]

Red Bard That's actually hilarious. Can you imagine in a level she just yells RECLAIMER, YEAH!

[@tristeneagles]

@@santihodge5278 Technically it's from both of their perspectives, they're both the Reclaimer and the lyrics apply to both

[@efxnews4776]

Reclamer, yeah! would be funny, but would be epic also theres "blood pumpint throug the machine of a heart"

[@greenshot1584]

I've recently stared using my favorite part of this song (instrumental starting at 1:46 ) as an alarm (nearly every day 8 am) and the fact that its still my favorite part and that i still like the song says a lot about its quality (and your songs keep getting better)

[@brutaldeath3]

Great song also love all the other songs you made as well.

[@AimeeBlack]

You make songs in a way that even if I've never played or don't liked the game, I still enjoying it a lot. Never stop making songs, you're awesome.

[@iamkirook]

I think it'd be really cool if you made more Halo songs. Mass Effect, Elder Scrolls, and Assassin's Creed all have a bunch. There's nothing wrong with that, those are great games, but Halo only has one and I think it deserves a few more. Plus, it would be great to have more awesome songs to listen to while playing it, and you don't make any other kind.

[@miracleofsound]

And life is just one big competition.

[@Valorsworn]

I do like how the celtic arrangement in the middle of the song is reminiscent of Halo: Combat Evolved. The main theme, in particular. It's a fantastic mix of upbeat and empowering with morose and depressing, video and music both. I can't say I've been a staunch follower of the Halo series, but the closure between Master Chief and Cortana's relationship was very heart-wrenching. Gavin captured that in both lyric and melody. Reclaimer, I can say, does it all justice.

[@BrOkEnArRoW1112]

I think this song is great. It totally speaks about the game and the relationship between chief and cortana while it keeps relevant to normal life. Its a song about friendship in game and in real life in my humble opinion. I love loads of your songs and this is one of my favs. Please keep up the amazing, brilliant work. You rock!!!

[@schorchguy]

Spotify-version of this song is 3:43 long. Coincidence? I THINK NOT!

[@Earthsoul22]

[@Nieumarlamalpa]

Having listened to this song for a ridiculous amount of times. I realized that this song has a better Halo vibe than halo 4. I'm not bashing the game, I just think that they took a turn lore vise that I would rather they didn't ....

[@skaulagain6825]

+Cpt. Gavorn i would stop liking Dark Souls if the 3rd games just lore of it i have not played halo 4 YET so i dont know

[@MrSpartanspud]

What bit? Personally I liked Halo 4's story more than the other main series games but there were one or two things I wasn't so keen on.

[@Nieumarlamalpa]

MrSpartanspud To me halo was best in ODST ,Halo 2 and Reach and thats mostly cause of "Halo: the cole protocol" (among others ofc) I just really like the idea of humanity's last stand and I feel like that was what made halo for me .... P.S. I've read the Forerunner trilogy and get what the story was about in Halo 4

[@MrSpartanspud]

Cpt. Gavorn That is fair enough. It had to end some time though right? Now we get to see chief kick some ass with blue team on the offensive. Although making every second UNSC soldier a spartan IV isn't something I was too keen on. I think that seems to be getting reigned in a bit though.

[@Nieumarlamalpa]

MrSpartanspud Yeah well see where it ends up. I get a feeling that 343i really want the "old" halo gone. They redesigned the forward onto dawn (making it bigger than infinity) and they are already thinking up chiefs end (and more)... at least they have a vision

[@miracleofsound]

Because only broken things need fixing.

[@harshamohite1289]

Nearly 15 years later, and Master Chief is still a badass. Can't wait to see what Halo 5 brings story-wise.

[@baron2062]

I’m betting you are pretty dissapointed right about now

[@Zman579]

[@IndirectCogs]

This song makes me sad every time I hear it.

[@tylermorgan1879]

Literally a joygasm in my ears right now.

[@torbjrnbakke5608]

The writing of "Reclaimer" and "Friends to Foes" is stronger then in the actual games.. Reclaimer is from Cortana's perspective to John: "You were there by my side A friend through it all Now I'm beaten and bruised And I'm falling apart Though I tear and divide I won't let you fall There is blood pumping through Your machine of a heart" And it's just so good when that same chorus is repeated at the end of "Friends to Foes", but from John to Cortana: "I was there by your side... I was there by your side..." I just love that detail! Can't wait for an appearance of the motif in the Halo 6 song! "We were there, side by side!"

[@Eric_Nomad_Hixtone]

Halo 4 wasn't too bad, it was about child-solider theme, which had some highlights, Halo 5... was so bad 343 literally killed every hero from it offscreen including Lockee, to just get rid of it and forget it existed.

[@DDLMXD]

Miracle Of Sound is just him, he does everything from the vocals to all the instraments I beleve

[@ZealotPr0]

damn cortana forgot about noble team pretty fast i was just thinking how in none of the other games not her or any other characters mention the team that gave there life and basically saved everyone

[@egoalter1276]

The Downpour Axe The reach game is barely fitting inside the canon. The navel was also a lot better, so I personally don't mind it.

[@Delta-es1lg]

I mean, who would remember them? Who met them, and is still alive? Cortana knows *of* them, she picked the delivery boy, but she stayed in a canister on noble six's back the whole trip to the Autumn. Halsey's about the only person who would still remember them directly, and she's got no reason to bring them up just about, anywhere. Jun's still around and training Spartans, and I'm sure his team gets a mention around him every once and a while, but there's no way that's not at least a little hard to think about for him. And the people of Reach put up a statue to remember them, after the war.

[@miracleofsound]

Yes, get it checked out and make sure to protect your ears. Believe me, you do not want it to get bad, it's like a permanent maddening torture that never stops.

[@evanboehm1011]

So I changed the lyrics to sing about this girl I love who stopped me from killing myself and she was always by my side, Literally Gav you make the best music. I hope you don't mind me borrowing it so I can sing for a talent show.

[@miracleofsound]

Music is subjective. It would help if you told me what exactly what you think is great about Legends Of Frost that you also feel this song is missing.

[@SasukeTheCursed]

Awesome song but depressing at the same time. I feel really bad for MC he seems so... empty at the end of Halo 4. Not that I can blame him.

[@theravenousrabbit3671]

The reason why he is empty is because Halo 4 played the whole 'who is the real machine, Cortana or Master chief' thing and clearly MC feels like nothing but a weapon. That is most likely why he went into stasis after Halo 3, he felt like he was a machine of war, and hence had no reason to be around during times of peace.

[@SasukeTheCursed]

louie wallenberg Well technically speaking he sort of is. He was made to be that way from the start all Spartans were. Of course being the best of them only reinforced that point of view. He wasn't the one who originally decided that cryo was the best option his superiors did that to him before the start of Halo 1 so that he would be around at the critical moment. But after all that Cortana changed that point of view. Slowly and subtly they grew close and her death is what seemed to finally break his former mentality. If I had to guess its the reason he is supposedly wondering around alone in Halo 5

[@danielhaire6677]

Enuma Elish The Spartans were raised to be weapons. Take the kid soldiers from the movie Soldier, add in untested medical augmentations that killed nearly thirty percent of the Spartan kids it was used upon and a power armor that KILLED its test pilot. Dr Halsey who created them may have provided humanity with a weapon that could win against the Covenant (even though they weren't the original target), but she was still a monster. Cortana may have been dedicated to the mission as much as John 117 but at least she and before her the other Spartans, kept him grounded to his humanity.

[@drizzt7dourden7]

Daniel Haire and there is the question again ^^ is halsey a monster? on the first glance it seems to be a no brainer. BUT if you dig deeper and think about it the answer gets less claer (at least for me) what makes her a "monster"? 1. she took kids at the age of 6 to make them recruits. ok that is bad (10-14 years earlyer than normal recruiting/forced recruting usualy happens) 2. she used partly untested augmentations on them BUT: 1. she made them Strong, inteligent, creative and willfull 2. she gave them the means to survive even the worst hardships and protected them whereever and however she could 3. she gave them a new family 4. she saved thousends of soldiers and billions of civilians by sacreficing a few dozn (not to mention the fact that thanks to her MC was able to stop the halos from going of and whiping all live from the galaxy...) 5. she gave hope back to the humans 6. she made cortana 7. thanks to her work the humans and the elits allied ... ohhh and the Spartens didnt even came close to a real mission until they were like 16 and what did sche get for saving the universe? she gets send to jail for the rest of her life and was branded a monster. and on the other hand the generals who send thousends of man to get slaughtert are "heros". WTF?

[@lukahayward2170]

drizzt7dourden7 If I kill someone no matter the reasons, be they self defense or in defense of another innocent then I have still committed a murder ( even if the I do not go to jail). It doesn't matter that Halsey saved all of the life in the galaxy she still committed a morally corrupt and blatantly illegal act in her creation of the Spartan II's and for that she must be punished. The ends may have justified the means but that doesn't mean she is not guilty of a heinous crime. The generals worked within the boundries of the law and so are not technically guilty of any actually crime. Though I agree with you that Halsey does a great service that does not mean that she should not suffer the results of her actions in ruining the lives of those children.

[@Magnanimoose]

Just when I got over the fact that Halo 4 isn't on PC you show up with this awesome song, damn you, Gav! I swear, your songs are better at marketing than the actual marketing of games, I pretty much bought a PS3 because of Redemption Blues. Now you're making me want to get a 360.

[@cidmcconroy]

[@jaketiggerson6596]

Cid McConroy Whats wrong with you? Fuck you, Cid.

[@cidmcconroy]

Jake Tiggerson And might I ask what is wrong with you good sir. All i said was that it was obvious that this song was from Cortana's point of view. It even has quotes of Cortana as lyrics in the song. For example: "Don't make a promise you can't keep." "Can't fix this maddess it runs to deep." It even has lines about how Cortana was suffering form her Rampancy. "Though I tear and dived." "I can feel the rampancy piercing my mind." and the part I feel brings this song together. "You were there by my side a friend through it all. Now I'm beaten and bruised, and I'm falling a part." Pretty much this song is almost like her final farewell to Chief. Even though she was dying she would support Chief. She conceder him a friend, and more then a SPARTAN, she viewed him as a human being. I like this song, and to me it is kind of obvious that it is from Cortana point of view. It a great song, but also sad one. It is also my opinion one of the best showings of her character at the end.

[@MalLionheart]

I like this. It adds to the tragicness of the already tragic story of Chief and Cortana.

[@kainefaldon6964]

I love this song, as I do most of your songs, but was wondering if you would ever consider doing a song for John 117? Something sad? Almost everything I can find has him portrayed as a kick ass soldier (which he is, I know) but he loses so much, I think John deserves a sad song.

[@idiocyincorporated7635]

I really hope Locke finds Cortana first and since he's ONI he tries to get information from her and essentially mind rapes her then i want to be able to play as a seriously pissed off chief and end the game by doing some brutal fucking melee fight with Locke where we either A snap his neck with the satisfying sound or B break his spine xD

[@gurumanlives4231]

I think it was the worst halo as it completely abandoned everything halo was about.

The campaign was garbage. It was the world's most generic storyline, the weapons felt wrong, and the enemies weren't fun.

This song got me started on Halo. Years ago I made a comment here because the way you described the story really made me want to experience it - the Chief's desperate battle for his only friend. What a premise! Yesterday, that "journey" finally concluded. I had to wait for the MCC to come to PC because I just couldn't get into console controls, I played through the whole series so I would be able to understand what Chief and Cortana have been through and how it has made them bond (what you mention in the song as "You've been there by my side, a friend through it all"). A few days ago, Halo 4 finally launched on Steam. And you know what? Your song was way better than the game. Leaving aside the way they executed gameplay and remarking in passing only that the main story wasn't compelling, the whole arc of John and between him and Cortana was disappointing. It was such an interesting theme, actually, the supersoldier grappling with what's left of his humanity in the face of impending loss. Yet for the most part, this theme was only mentioned verbally at the beginning and end but you didn't "feel" it. It wasn't expressed in the action. Still an awesome song.
