== | == Trivia == | ||
*Many pieces from ''[[Halo 2: Original Soundtrack]]'' and ''[[Halo 3: Original Soundtrack]]'' are remixes of or are based on pieces from this soundtrack. | |||
*While not displayed on the list of tracks, the soundtrack contains the song [[Siege of Madrigal]]. It plays following a period of silence near the end of the last track. | |||
*One piece of music, heard on the level [[Assault on the Control Room]], does not appear on the soundtrack. It is available on Bungie's website [http://halo.bungie.net/projects/halo/asset_thumb_viewer.aspx?at=55&cc=25 here]. Bungie and Marty O'Donnell have never publicly named the piece, and it is thus referred to as "the Lost Song" by fans. | |||
