Ashamed to say this is the first Miracle of Sound I have listened to. On the upside, I don't think I could've found a better place to start. I've got a backlog to work through tonight.

As an aside; 4:35, GRUNT!!! NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hereby declare this song to be really bloody good.

Also, decidedly nifty.

Heh, don't worry. Whoever you see getting hit by that blast gets up again.

Wow... I love all of your previous work, Gavin, but this, from a songwriting perspective, is by far the best work you've ever done... Simply amazing. I clapped. It was great.
This had better be the credits song of Mass Effect 3, or BioWare will have truly missed out on something fantastic.

Well, if there would be anyone able to get back up after being knocked off their feet, it would be Urdnot Grunt.

Awesome song, dude. Best one yet, and considering the others in the Miracle of Sound lineup that says a lot. It was so worth the wait to hear this song.

Wow....it's incredible. Now I have to wait until it's at bandcamp. This one is fighting with Little Sister for my favorite. I love the ambience of Little Sister, but this one's just epic.

Another awesome song! I think I prefer this one to Commander Sheppard.

Sir, I will purchase your album!

I absolutely did not bawl like a baby while listening

*cough*
I'm glad you found it emotionally stirring :) A lot of effort went into making this one a but more intense and emotional than my usual stuff.

Damn...
Russ Pitts (he does the vids right?) does pretty well under pressure
Great song as always, loved the lyrical style, they did a great job of conveying how small things are in the universe. Also, there was a lot of emotion in the singing. Loved the melody too.
Damn...

I suddenly want to play Mass Effect even though I never had the desire to before. That's how good this song is.
That's exactly what I was thinking. It makes me want to go out and buy it now, heh.


This is probably your best song ever, Miracle. A personal favorite of mine as well. Wonderful work!

Simply amazing. Another hit. I love it.

Will you consider writing a Deus Ex song one day?
Already planning it, just have to finish Human Revolution first :)

I think this one is even better than "Commander Shepard". I'm just a sucker for songs with beautiful lyrics, and this one certainly deliver. Great work as always MoS, here's looking forward to your next work. Ah, quick question thought, is there a way for me to download any of your songs? Perhaps you have a album in the works?

So amazing. I'm not really that huge of a fan of Mass Effect, but this song moved me. Really, Really well done.

And it shows, though I have to say that every single time I hear the second part of the verse, when you sing "The tiniest flicker on the edge of the sky", I always expect a change in percussion. Don´t know where that comes from.
But anyway, it´s a great song. A real shame Bioware just had to move your GC appearance to 1pm.

I was lucky enough to spot the preview you showed along with the great interview you gave.

I'm only listening to it second time round now, but it's absolutely wonderful... It really captures the depth of the engagement Mass Effect can have on you as you play it. There's so much soul to it, and it shows through every part of the song.

While the video is making me want to mess Collecters up something vicious, the song is making me want to tread the lonely void, to see a sky light up by a newborn star, to fight for the weak and lost.
To give my life to Normandy.

Magnum Opus, Gavin!
