- I found this musical gem from Martin O' Donnell's video:
• Video
[It brings me pain to inform you all, Bungie has taken down his video. Further details as to why are unknown. You can see it no longer exists when entering into the link.]
Sit back and relax.
Whoever managed to convince John Mayer and Steve Vai to play guitar on this soundtrack deserves a Nobel peace prize
Turns out John Mayer wanted to. And he said to keep it a secret and put his gamer tag in the credits lol
@@snop6176 that just makes me respect him even more
@@snop6176dude I didn't know that. That's so fuckin coll
Legends of a time long past
Like I said on Marty’s video. I remember beating Halo 2 as a kid and wanting more of the epilogue guitar bit and years later my wish was granted with this. Honestly it’s surreal...
Me too my friend.
Same happen with reclaimer and mjornir
Right there with you, :') ..all this time as a kid... couldn't have came at a better time!
I Had no idea it was Mayer behind this I’ve been awed by epilogue since I first heard it on the halo 2 credits as a kid
Me too brothers, me too, alas we have this masterpiece too enjoy!
Me too dude, I imagine Heavy Price Paid was psychodelic for you with your music understanding, right?
RIP to all those who are still searching for this song
I was one of those souls until just now
Legit loosing my mind tryna find this. I went through all the og trilogy ost and heard impend and went HOT DAMN thats it right there
@@blackcardinal4500 Ditto
@@benmontey3438 glad to have you man
@@blackcardinal6019 Likewise bro
I found my funeral song and now I can died in peace.
Before you die make sure to fix that grammer.
Damn son might wanna find an over shield your low
Your last brain cell definitely died 😂
Halo was my generation’s Star Wars. This song…. It hits me so deep. So hard. It perfectly encapsulates the feelings and emotions of what we, the player, experienced. The hopelessness of humanity in 2552. The omnipresent threat of impending doom from the covenant… but in this song, a hint of hope and perseverance remains. A will to fight on and win the day.
Don’t give in to the urges, men. There are 36,000 a year in the U.S. don’t do it. Don’t pull that trigger. Don’t take that pill. Don’t knot that rope. Reach out.
If Master Chief, and the UNSC, can defeat the Covenant-YOU CAN DEFEAT THIS! And you can live to help others around you.
Live to FINISH THE FIGHT.
Rest In Peace to all the Halo fans who will never get to see the release of Infinite... Spartans never die…
RIP to those who never finished the fight
Spartans never die, they're only missing in action.
So true 😌
how good is halo infinite :)
Spartans are never out of the fight …
Sitting on a golden beach, worn uniform, cheap cigar in mouth, sun gliding down whilst casting god rays on a pair of Paris-class frigates hovering not too far away..
You're holding the dog tags of a close friend who didn't quite make the 28 year trip with you till the end, but without his sacrifice, you wouldn't be here..
The sea breeze flows over your rugged face..
You throw the tags into the sea..
I'll see you starside..
We'll always try to make their sacrifices worth it.❤✊
May they have not gone gentle into that good night.
This gave me fucking chills
JENKINS!!!
Sounds like the crysis ending all over again
I come here to relive my childhood and remember that Halo will always be there.
With this GIF, it does sound nice and the snow makes it better. It's lovely indeed, i thank you Spartan. Stay strong
Halo brings me peace and reminds me who I am
who are you?
Have played Halo for over half my life, & I just found this video exists. Embarrassed as hell, but full body goosebumps & tears immediately came after hearing the never-before heard strings.
What a powerful song. This song will always be special as long as I'm alive. I agree with others here, I want this song to be played at my funeral, not even kidding.
"Spartans never die. They're just missing in action."
I will have this played at my funeral too fellow Spartan 😉 btw - don't feel embarrassed. Most will never get what Halo means to us and that's ok; it's for a select few
Well boys... My childhood is over... Crazy how I ended right here at the song I overlooked way back when I was little playing halo with my dad
Gg bois
I feel this song truely represents a moment in time. What was and would be Halo 2. The hopelessness and triumpth it was. Down to the wire and at 1000 mph. Bungie made imho the best game ever made. But you had to be there. You had to experience it...
Today the Xbox 360 Halo servers shut down. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to play, but I will always have memories of the old days.
Thanks for saving this. This deserves to exist somewhere. Permissions be damned.
shine on you crazy spartan
This picture remeber me all that moments when playing halo as a kid, returning from school, the halo enviroments, the musics, my frind playing with me. Halo is gonna stay with me all my life, cause thats what the spartans show me, never surrender, to fight to the end. Spartans never die
#haloforever 🤘🤘
Listening to this while star gazing at the beach is pure bliss, thank you :)
This is one of my favorite Halo pieces but it was always so short, good this surfaced, didn’t know John Mayer was behind this beautiful piece either
That was some top tier improvisation on John's part! Love the looped strings too👌🔥
It's Epilogue/Impend, not Unforgotten, but thank you for the video. I came from Marty's
Yes good video but Unforgotten is indeed a different composition.
Ah apologies, seems I mixed the two up. They kind of sounded similar in my head.
@@khrongyrr Yeah I getchya bro
I've been waiting 17 years for this, but could never find it for some reason! Thank you!
Everyone should download this MP3 so its not lost, Marty had to take all of his stuff down :(
The original was taken down 😒. I really wanted to hear the brass rendition again. Thanks for uploading this though.
Blame Pete Parsons.
Tell all your friends.
A moment of silence for those that don't know about this musical gem...
This song helps with my tinnitus, it sounds crazy but this helps so much. 🙏 🙏
As a halo fan this means so much to me .
I remember the first time I finished the Halo 2 campaign and heard this song; it brought me to tears because I didn't want it to end.
Halo had a good run
It really did :/
When my life ends, I can only hope this plays as the credits roll
Someone please like my comment so i can keep coming back here when life gets tough
Currently trying to learn this on guitar. Its such a cool feeling. One of the best songs
Did you end up learning it?
I wish you well. Currently learning deference for darkness on piano.
is there any pedals involved? like a wah pedal?
@@socenz0 reverb and after 0:50 u can hear he changes it, sounds like a booster maybe the katana clean booster im not pretty sure, but for this guitar tone u had to have staggered clean pickups with a fender amp
@@socenz0yeah I’d play it with a reverb. Around halo 2 John was playing a strat. But I honestly think it’s more so the control knobs on the guitar that’s giving it that warm sound, the other commenter said it sounds like he has a boost of sorts however I believe he’s just turning the tone control up to make the notes not as warm,making the notes have more clarity. Also if you have a Strat (or squire) type deal have your pickup selector all the way up facing you (not down toward the floor)
Thank you, John, and THANK YOU MARTY
Hey man, you did god's job with this longer version of the guitar. You da best
2:32 is my favorite
Amaxing piece of art. Brought me to tears. Whoever is reading this, God bless you in Jesus name
Okay, now I can die happily.
Oh, this is beautiful. Thanks for archiving this.
This soundtrack got so much melancholy vibes, some Nostalgia too... My favorite soundtrack of Halo now for sure. Can't wait Infinite 😍
Halo 2 had both Steve Vai and John Mayer play on its soundtrack!?!? Fucking awesome
This the song that plays when the credits roll when you die
Gotta call the cops for all them licks he hittin
Finally found this
When last we met, Marty had to go into hiding because Microsoft got pissed he released content like this. Now Marty has awakened and is returning to his discord server as if the making if this comment. Nature is healing
I really hope this stays up. Marty just had to take down a bunch of uploads and this was one of the casualties.
Bungie's doing I imagine.
I didn't expect this to end up being an endangered gem now.
@@khrongyrr Thank you. Would you happen to have the original samples?
Sad that Marty's videos are gone
do you know what happened to all the videos halo related he had uploaded?
@@Epitective idk they probably had to get removed from the Bungie lawsuit
For all good things lost
DAYUM SHAWTY
oh my heart strings
This is all too perfect to be real, *_But it is!_*
If and when i ever pass on, i want this to play at my funeral
I've never said that about any song before, but it really feels like this song is just the perfect emotional piece
It melts your heart, but gives you the strength to look onward to tomorrow
It makes you feel like you passed something difficult, and now that you've conquered it once, nothing can ever stop you from doing it again, and again and again
Like nothing can ever take you from the top of the world once you get there...
The whole world is your oyster, carefree and lively, but peaceful as well
I really wish for the best for all the people who worked on Halo around the bungie era
And i hope for the best for all who wish to faithfully follow in it's footsteps, to make something just as impactful, as heart melting and as inspiring as Halo was and still is
Even if it's not Halo, that doesn't mean it can't make us feel like Halo does
God, i love this song...
Odst vibes! It fits! So. . . Odst version of impend.
Ah it originally came from Halo 2. It was a cut version of Epilogue/Impend. I see what you are talking about though. Halo 3: ODST is technically Halo 2.5.
@@khrongyrr so wait this isn’t actually in halo 2 because I know I’ve heard it before and swear it was during halo 2’s credits? Or do you mean the extended version?
Did you make the background video? Could you point me to a higher resolution download? I'd really like to use it as a background for Halo MCC PC!
laaaate reply, it's a wallpaper engine wallpaper.
Im so glad we can keep Marty's memories alive. Big company 👎
Legit crying
Anybody else remember that one guy on Marty's original video who claimed to know what good guitar was and was talking mad shit on the guitar licks in this edit? RIP to that insane bastard and the shitstorm he summoned upon himself.
1:55 bro
Damn.... Just.... DAMN....
i wish i had yt premium or some way to listen to this without internet because i want to take a sad walk
Halo 1 arbiter gold elite 😓
Esto es hermoso❤
I only took a bit of Spanish in high school, but ¡Me gusta!🎸🎶🎵❤👌
@@Beregond1861 un saludo grande amigó
She said that to me once. About being a machine.
Great stuff
I need the full thing on Spotify
♥
Is that wallpaper engine? Anyone know which wallpaper?
Halo2
ᵐᵉ ᵉⁿᶜᵃⁿᵗᵃ😍
Do you happen to have the brass rendition of it too? I don't think it's been preserved anywhere yet
Un saludo a mi pana el axel
Rest in peace to all the Halo fans who unfortunately got the chance to play Infinite... Turns out, Spartans die.
No, they are just missed in action…
I have the same background
I want that background
Can you put up a link to the wallpaper?
Did John Mayer really do the guitar for this?
Yep
I’m so confused how is John Mayer related to this song?
It's because he plays the incredible guitar solo on this Masterpiece
Hahahah sorry guys not feeling it 😅.
Hola
and you've stolen his upload so you can grab more views, leach
Now the old video got taken down, which means now this is the only one left😎
