'''Unforgotten''' is a song included in the [[Halo 2 Original Soundtrack]]. Its length is 2:09 miniutes. The first section of the song is included as one of the subsequent pieces in the main menu of [[Halo 2]]. The remake of this piece, [[Never Forget]], is heard exclusively on the [[Halo 3 Original Soundtrack]], as Unforgotten is played in the main menu of [[Halo 3]], contrary to popular belief that the song is [[Never Forget]]. It is the only piece to be played on the main menu of two games (with the exception of the Gregorian Chant).
