It runs for 0:59.
'''Shadows''' is the twenty-fourth track in ''[[Halo: Original Soundtrack]]''.
It is notably the shortest song in the Halo: Original Soundtrack. Its first heard in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' during the opening cut scene of [[Halo (Level)|Halo]]. Slight variations of some of the strings are heard throughout the course of the game. In ''Halo 2'' and ''Halo 3 ''the same variations of the strings are heard and are normally played when [[Flood]] are either nearby or attacking, featured in the songs [[Mausoleum Suite|Shudder]], [[Gravemind (Music)| Gravemind]], and the last movement of [[Halo Reborn]], which is played during the battle with [[343 Guilty Spark (Monitor)|Guilty Spark]].


==Overview==
The track is notably the shortest track in the ''Halo: Original Soundtrack''. The piece begins with high strings, followed by siren sound effects (like those heard in ''[[Truth and Reconciliation Suite]]''), with percussion fading in, and finally joined by electric guitar. In-game, only the siren sounds were used.
