Bad Here Day is the second track in Halo Wars: Original Soundtrack.
Overview
The track opens with a piano and synth notes in a serene melody, accompanied with twinkling effects. Vocals join in as the main melody, which is echoed by synth notes. The melody is taken over by strings in a repeat of the melody before ending with synth notes.
The soundtrack's bonus DVD includes a 5.1 channel surround mix as well as an alternate version, titled Bad Here Day (Shield Interior Intro), featuring piano and vocals on an upbeat variation of the melody, accompanied by heavy percussion.
