==Overview==
 
The track features the triplet rhythm from the ''[[Halo Theme]]'', accompanied by an electric guitar playing improvisations over the triplet rhythm. The piece was arranged into ''[[Rock in a Hard Place]]'' in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary: Original Soundtrack]]''.
 
'''Rock Anthem for Saving the World''' is a piece included in the ''[[Halo: Original Soundtrack]]''.

==Appearances==
It can be heard:
*In the level ''[[The Silent Cartographer]]'', just after [[John-117]] exits the facility after activating the Cartographer.
*In the level ''[[Assault on the Control Room]]'', at the base of the [[Control Room (Installation 04)|Control Room]], though only the initial part of the piece is heard.
*In the level ''[[Two Betrayals]]'', when John-117 has climbed down to the base of the Control Room.
*In the ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'' level ''[[Coastal Highway]]'', when the players walk down the first off-ramp to acquire the [[M41 SPNKR]] and [[M274 Mongoose]]s for the [[achievement]] [[Vidmaster Challenge: Deja Vu]].


==Production notes==
It is heard in its full form on [[Silent Cartographer (Level)|Silent Cartographer]] just after the [[Master Chief]] has activated the map. The initial part of the piece is later heard at the base of the Control Room on the level [[Assault on the Control Room]]. It also begins playing when the bottom of the control room is reached on the level [[Two Betrayals (Level)|Two Betrayals]]. It is also considered the main theme for the games, although it only appears in this arrangement on the ''Halo:&nbsp; CE soundtrack''. It does reappear in the ''[[Halo 2: Original Soundtrack|Halo 2 soundtrack]]'', on the songs [[Reclaimer (music)|Reclaimer]] and [[Unyielding]], and again on the ''[[Halo 3: Original Soundtrack]]'' in the track [[To Kill a Demon]].
It runs for 1:18, but is also listed as being 1:17 seconds long, a reference to John-117. As such, the soundtrack has the same length with ''[[We're Not Going Anywhere]]'', ''[[Prepare To Drop (music)|Prepare to Drop]]'', and ''[[Remembrance]]''.
 
It runs for 1:20, but is also listed as being 1:17 seconds long, a reference to the Master Chief.
 
==Trivia==
*The song is the same length as [[Prepare to Drop (Song)|Prepare to Drop]] and [[Remembrance]], at 1:17.
*In&nbsp;Halo 3: ODST Campaign, at the Coastal Highway level, before driving the Warthog, if you enter the frontal nearby underground passage, the exact same theme will play. Additionally, in the same zone, there are several rocket launchers with 998 ammo. However, this only occurs if playing with 4 people in Co-Op&nbsp;mode&nbsp;on Xbox Live.
