| ==Overview== | | ==Trivia== |
| ===No More Dead Heroes===
| | The title of the song is a reference to a line said by [[Cortana]] in the first level of ''Halo: Combat Evolved''. |
| ''No More Dead Heroes'' (1:41) is a full rearrangement of the third section from the track ''[[Enough Dead Heroes]]'' (from ''[[Halo: Original Soundtrack]]''), which is also its namesake. The piece is distinguished from the original piece with larger focus on woodwinds and strings sections. The piece plays in the opening cutscene, when [[John-117]] arrives at the [[Flood]]-infested wreckage of ''[[High Charity]]'', and continues into the opening gameplay sequence of the level.

| ===Watching===
| |
| ''Watching'' (3:20) is composed of two sections. The first section features eerie ambiance with synth notes faintly playing the main melody of ''Weight of Failure'' (from ''[[Prologue (music)|Prologue]]'' in ''[[Halo 2: Original Soundtrack]]'') in a slow tempo, which ends with a reprise of the ambiance heard in the opening of the earlier track ''[[Dread Intrusion]]'' before its reversed message. This section plays when John-117 first arrives at the area with the [[D77H-TCI Pelican]] after dropping down from a [[porta]] on the floor, and continues until he got past the Flood-infested bridge of a [[CAS-class assault carrier]]. The second section features percussion from the track ''Overcome'' (from the earlier track ''[[Behold a Pale Horse]]'') with vocals and strings in the background, with the piece ending on a suspenseful note. The section plays when John-117 enters the reactor room and continues until he reaches hallway outside the [[Sanctum of the Hierarchs]]. The suspenseful strings and vocals are triggered by the green [[Character interludes|Cortana effect]].

| ==Production notes==
| |
| The CD booklet erroneously listed the duration of the piece ''Watching'' as 30 seconds long when it is in fact 3 minutes 20 seconds long.
| |
| In the CD release, the song's metadata lists the title as "No More Dead Heros".
