Emotion was poured into the making of this song and that's what makes it so iconic and special. I'm just in disbelief that Vai really nailed the song on the first take, the most legendary part of that song. One more thing, if you listen to a song he made(for the love of god, made in 1990) it really captured this sound towards the end of that song. Crazy to think that was created before this. Truly two amazing pieces and Vai is just an all out amazing guitarist. Best collab in gaming history.

the fact they used the first take predominantly tells you everything you need to know about Vai.

Did not know Steve did this theme. Now with Halo infinite out, I'm just listening to this in the background as I play.

I wonder if Marty was sitting there as they vibed just thinking, "...holy shit. I'm witnessing a legend."

Did they though? It sounds more like they went with what he did on the first take but he played it again to perfect it

The fact that a legend like steve vai played the theme for one of my favorite games of all time. This man played with Zappa, Roth after Van Halen and his own career to stack it up. The two combined are true memories for my childhood. 😊

I think that's a producer in the back or something? I just love his reaction when the guitarist starts killing it at 9:22 . His face is just, "YES, this is gonna be it boys" My man actually went from 6 to midnight and had to adjust lol
