- Song: Close Your Eyes
Artist: Breaking Benjamin
I absolutely love Breaking Benjamin’s music. For me, it’s synonymous with Halo, so I wanted to make a video that incorporated both in a dynamic way - hence the unofficial “Close Your Eyes” music video. I hope you enjoy it and that it makes you want to re-visit Reach and check out Breaking Benjamin’s latest album, Ember. Thanks for watching!
The awesome ambient cover of “Close Your Eyes” at the start of the video belongs to Mysteriousic. Be sure to check it out at the link here! • Video
The Breaking Benjamin music video clips are from the official “Torn in Two” music video, which can be found here. • Breaking Benjamin - To...
I created this under fair use. I do not own any of the content used. Halo Reach belongs to Microsoft, Bungie and 343 Industries. “Close Your Eyes,” belongs to Breaking Benjamin and Hollywood Records. - Hry
"What I remembered about the Fall Of Reach... Is how slow it happened how everyone was shocked to see aliens invading a 'Tropical' landscape but that's when most of us realized war has come to the civilans... Yet I survived... All thanks to a couple of Spartan-II's... God I miss my family.."
They gave us time to save more lives.
It wasn’t wasted.
The Twos and Threes sacrificed it all... They bought us a lot of time... We'll pay'em back 10 fold one day...
I'm so happy the community still makes GMVs
Agreed
It's an old age culture, it won't die 🍻
When the faces of Noble Team flashed as it said "I will keep you here inside", I got emotional
I’m glad it was a powerful moment for you.
Naw the part when carter crash the pelican and it said turn the tides I was sad
please don't delete this one of the last gems on YT.... I witnessed the removal of other GMVs and i hate to see this one go..
How strange that people would remove their videos willingly. Definitely not planning on doing that, so don’t worry. If it gets taken down, it won’t be because I did it. I’m glad it means something to you, though, so thanks for sharing!
Wanna know something wild? I finally saw Breaking Benjamin again down in Atlantic city back in March, and this video was playing through my head while they were performing it. It actually hit harder, because they played Blow me Away like 2 songs prior to Close your eyes, and he mentions halo(of course). So it was like a full circle for me for a moment for me. Keep fighting Spartans, we'll rest when we are in the fucking dirt 💪💪💪
That’s awesome that you got see Breaking Benjamin live! And I’m truly honored that this video enhanced your enjoyment of your time at their performance. Thanks for sharing that!
@@kingficus9787 I meant to correct myself' I've seen them at least 7 or 8 times now, and will always support them. Keep doing what you love, these motivate me to wanna do GMV's again, and this is inspiration.
Most music videos don’t really have much of an emotional impact on me but this one and a few others absolutely hit home, this is incredible
That’s cool to hear, thanks for sharing! Was there a particular moment that hit home the most for you?
@@kingficus9787When the blue uniformed ODST got hit. I know this is just a neat little vid, but having seen people I loved hit in combat, its Shakespearian. Knowing you would do anything to trade places with them and knowing that they would do anything not to. Is there a higher love than to soak up a round so that your brother doesn’t?
@tjpit I think you’re right.

“Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.”
The question still remains as to why this isn't the official music video.
Haha I appreciate it. Thanks a lot for the view and comment!
probably they didn't wanna buy the rights to play it or copyright
@@robertmilchis5955 they probably haven't even seen it sadly..
@@theguyof360 is the game older than the song?
@@theguyof360 they could have at least included it into The Master Chief Collection
Love how you did this "All will fade before your eyes" it shows the covenant fleet coming out of slipspace over Reach "as we turn the tide" Here it shows the saber which was the start of operation upercut that would have seen the covenant in system be anhilated, sadly it was not the case.
You really paid attention! I’m glad you noticed those moments! Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment.
@@kingficus9787 a friend of mine showed me your Ashes of Eden video a while back now, ya know it's funny that I never get notified on likes or replies. This comment might seem a bit scatterbrained, and that's because it is, but this video is damn good and is up there with a Halo Reach GMV with the song Diamond Eyes by Shinedown
Samuel Brantley haha no worries. Scatterbrained is my default setting. Thanks for the encouragement, and if you don’t mind sending it, I’d love to check out that other GMV you mentioned! Diamond Eyes is a favorite of mine.
@@kingficus9787 czcams.com/video/GxdDKZY6hG0/video.html Here is the link my man, after you watch it tell me what you think because this song and Reach are kinda forever associated with each other because of that video
Samuel Brantley Yeah, definitely a solid song and an epic game combination! I think my favorite part was when Carter’s Pelican slams into the Scarab as the chorus comes crashing in. I remember playing reach while having my favorite Halo Diamond Eyes GMV playing. That was a good time!
Here’s the link to a Diamond Eyes Halo tribute I made if you want to check it out. I can’t say it’ll mean as much to you as your Reach one, but you may like it!

A Worthy song for an Emotional Game.
Thank you! I’m glad you liked it.
Omg this song fits this halo
I'm glad! That's what I was hoping for.
Absolutely beautiful and totally captures the essence of noble team. Great job.
Alexander Young Thanks a lot! That’s what I was hoping for, so it’s encouraging to have you share that. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment!
best H reach MV it deserves more views
Thank you very much! That's high praise.
I like how you ad cometary from the actual clip first
Thanks! Do you mean like at the beginning of the video?
@@kingficus9787 yeah
reach has been avenged, but lets keep honoring noble teams' sacrifice, they didnt die for us to live under the banished
The end made me cry so hard 😭
Reach’ll do that to you. Thanks for watching!
@@kingficus9787 No. Thank you for making this video. It really hit's the feel and home.
Been into GMVs for a long time now and this has easily become one of my favourites.
That means a lot; thank you! I’m glad you enjoy it.
Still watch this video every now and then when I need a little courage for the day. I know it’s corny, but it helps me. Thanks for making these incredible videos man. Been coming back to this one for years
I’m honored by that, truly. Thank you for sharing. Your comment inspired me to go back to a few videos that had a similar impact on me some time ago and thank their creators.
@@kingficus9787 is there a place I could email you at? I’ve made a few of my own edits as well and you can have them for your channel, let me know.
Seeing that Blow Me Away is linked to Halo 2, it makes me think Breaking Benjamin only increases how cool Halo is.
Indeed! The two are synonymous for me at this point.
@@kingficus9787unknown soldier might be another good pick for Halo
I agree!
Man, this looks official. Solid edit my friend
Hey, thanks a lot! I appreciate it.
Goosebumps.
3:23. Damn. this moment with Kat and Thom is great
Awesome job!!!
For lore context, the fall of reach took 5 days and had 1 billion human casualties. 1 billion in 5 days...
That hits me where I live!
Pretty cool gmv, I really liked it. :D
Now this is a true gem, there are many great Halo MVs and this is definitely up there. I love Breaking Benjamin so thank you for helping me discover a song I almost overlooked!
Thanks a lot, I appreciate your kind comment! I’m glad you enjoyed the video and found a new appreciation for “Close Your Eyes.” Breaking Benjamin is synonymous with Halo for me and this song in particular conveys so many of the key themes of the series.
@@kingficus9787 And you did it a lot of justice with this video.
Video was perfect
This song perfectly describes reach
I thought so too. Breaking Benjamin is just one of those bands that for me is synonymous with Halo, and especially Halo Reach. Thanks for checking out my video!
@@kingficus9787 np
Now we need to take the box canyon and we have it all
Love your music still listening
Thanks a lot! I’m glad you enjoy it.
this is really well done.
Thank you very much! I appreciate that.
Very well edited man, nice work 👍
Thanks a lot!
Now THIS this is what I can say is a love letter to all us reach fans... And to all us breaking Benjamin fans also!
Thank you. While I enjoyed playing Halo before Reach came out, Reach was the game that catapulted me into an obsession with the world and lore, really everything Halo, so this game deserves all the love I could put into this video, and more. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Reach is a special game within my heart also... But I'm also a massive alternative fan and this came across recommended feed and I took a gamble... Guess that gamble worked
Watched 3 of your videos and just subscribed.
How have you not gotten more attention?!
KRISTIAN OTIS Wow! Thank you so much for taking the time to encourage me like this. Honestly, 100 subscribers is abundantly more than I was expecting to have at this point, so thank you!
Very good video cant wait to see these guys in august
You get to see Breaking Benjamin?! Lucky! Thanks for the view and comment. Enjoy the concert!
bro same i saw them on the 31st with chevelle and three days grace
You did a great job on this!
Thanks a lot! I appreciate the encouragement.
Eugen Last Word's" I Am Ready, How about You?"
This was the last video I saw before we head to 2021 and I can't believe I forgot to say that. But still, this was awesome and glad I saw it before we leave 2020
Thank you! It sounds like the timing was meaningful to you.
This is so good!
Thanks a lot! I'm glad you enjoy it!
Holy...
did you make this video ?
incredible editing
I did! Thank you!
I miss playing as Noble 6 with Noble team
Totally! It’s a captivating story.
Nice job bro!!
Thank you, and thanks for watching!
This is pretty good
Thanks!
Remember reach!!!!
Truly the best GMV I've seen in a while, the story of Reach sadly only focuses on Reach more than Noble team, I'm glad this shed some light off of them, and, Breaking Benjamin is pretty underated compared to other rock bands, two underated things in one video
Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed it. Breaking Benjamin and Halo just go together for me, so I’m glad you felt this worked.
This so awesome ❤️😎. I love halo reach. It was good game. This song so good for it.
That makes two of us! Thanks for watching!
@@kingficus9787 u r welcome
Close Your Eyes... Warriors.....
Now I want to play halo
Then I have accomplished my mission!
Sometimes The fans make better work that the original production
Ah reminds me of when i was just a young lad playing republic command listening to clones by ash oh the early 00s i miss them
❤❤
Thank you!
Holy sh*t
Don’t say that reach will forever live 😰💔 0:50
Halo Reach was enjoyable for me.
Halo Reach had great machinima series.
I think the heaviest casualties sustained in the war from Humanity was not those sustained during the war, but those sustained following it. The untold stories of the survivors. And the subsequent Xenophobias that very likely remained for decades to follow.
Oh my fucking god this was fucking amazing I’m about to cry
Fucking legend
Thank you!
I can hear the game audio slightly in my headphones at 0:50 - 1:00
It’s just dust and echoes.
Now, if you hear something that sounds like “Got a light?” Or “What are we? Some kind of Fall of Reach?” Or “It’s masterchiefing time!” Let me know immediately because that probably means the Halo TV Show slipped in there somewhere and I’m going to have to glass this video and rebuild it from the ground up.
@@kingficus9787 xD LOL, I hope not! I can also hear some game audio here 2:10 - 2:16 2:24 - 2:56
The singer looks a little bit like Keanu reeves it might just be the lighting or the quick cuts but still looks a bit like him. Watched this video like 2 hours before attending my grandmas funeral
UNE H.L. noble6 to the end♾️spartans never die respond back in the fight again and again!
The real question is what was the music used in the opening, i clicked the link and it says its not available
Excellent question because that music is SO good. The cover I used was by a channel you can still find called Mysteriousic. That particular video is no longer available for some reason, which is such a bummer. That said, hope is not completely lost because it seems a different channel reuploaded that video, or made a cover exactly like it, which you can find here: czcams.com/video/NbYUzwRezWs/video.htmlsi=DKlzu-YA3ZSZhO0X
@@kingficus9787 thanks brother
Anyone here in 2024?
Still here
Remeber reach even if the unsc lost 2 great things happend 1 cortana and 2 the covenant took a big blow
Reach canot fall they cant let that hapen reach is theare last defense
You're right. Those pesky aliens just need to mind their own business and leave Reach alone.
I think that 343 should have had noble 6 hunt down master chief it would have been a better campaign because you 2 beloved Spartans fighting one another
