'''Blow Me Away''' is the second track of the ''[[Halo 2: Original Soundtrack| Halo 2: Original Soundtrack, Volume 1]]'' by the post-grunge band Breaking Benjamin. The song was written specifically for the soundtrack, and was later featured on the band's 2004 EP ''[[wikipedia:So Cold (Breaking Benjamin song)#So Cold EP|So Cold]]''. The song also earned moderate success on music charts though is mainly known for its appearance in ''Halo 2''.

This track plays during the battle between the [[Jiralhanae]], [[Mgalekgolo]], and the [[Sangheili]] in the [[Mausoleum of the Arbiter]] at the end of level ''[[Gravemind (level)|Gravemind]]'', though it plays with the lyrics almost muted. It will play on a loop until all enemies are eliminated. The introduction of the song, with its characteristic bell chime, can also be heard during the tunnel portions of the level ''[[Outskirts]]''.

The track was replaced by ''[[Breaking the Covenant]]'' in the ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]'' [[Halo 2: Anniversary Original Soundtrack|soundtrack]] and corresponding gameplay section. The bell chime in the introduction was reorchestrated and incorporated into ''[[Moon Over Mombasa]]''.
