*The Halo: Reach Soundtrack is one of two soundtracks that does not directly include the [[Halo Theme]], with the other being the [[Halo 3: ODST Original Soundtrack|Halo 3: ODST Soundtrack]].

*There are two known songs - "Uphill, Both Ways" and "Lone Wolf" - that did not technically make it onto the official soundtrack, but appear as MP3 files downloadable through [[Bungie]]'s [http://www.bungie.net/projects/reach/vidaudio.aspx?c=55 website]. "Uphill, Both Ways" is a shortened version of "Both Ways (Remix)", while "Lone Wolf" is simply a section of the track "Winter Contingency" using the same name.
