This tune captures the feeling of the game: a strange, wonderous landscape underscored by a sinister, malevolent prescence one cannot hope to fully understand, but doesn't have to, for there may always be a way out or a light on the end of the tunnel.
omg omg i sooo love this soundtrack,this music is really reaching out to my soul,its almost like...... so this is what heaven feels like,like an angel singing to me and i cant stop listning to it d(n_n)b
Limbo is what a video game should be: Letting the player figure out on his own what happened, different enemies symbolizing different things, and the world itself is a dark version of the imagination of a child when they let it run wild while playing in a playground
My favourite bit in limbo. I love that you can see the stars in the sky, it's really peaceful. Like you can see through to the normal world for a brief moment.
Limbo is just a game where it's not OH MEH GAWD EXPLOSIONS HFGKBVDUHD It's just really relaxing and awesome. It's a game that dosn't deserve a sequel. And hopefully someday it will be recognized. Live long puzzle games. :D
The sad thing is that the awesome part of the track (1:04 onward) only kicks in after you've set off the first machine gun. So, after many rounds of trial and error, chances are you're either spending the next five seconds getting killed, or you've just figured out how to solve the puzzle, at which point the music abruptly ends.
Not even a proper chance to enjoy the rest of the song, unless you know to listen for it. :/
if this music was used in an emotional scene from a good movie, im sure it would actually make me cry a little. this just feels like "everything will fall into place".
When this music started playing, it felt like it gave me hope that i can make it until the end of the game...i dont remember the last time that music from a GAME actually drove me to try harder and keep going.
This game is truly something else. its more like a painting if nothing else.
this music and game made me think a lot more than just about the game...somehow it made me think about life, to the point i would just sit there and zone out to this music (this song especially)...this song made it feel like, theres peace even in the scariest situations.
this song alone is better than a lot of movie soundtracks I hear (unless its something like The Social Network).
if they ever create a sequel to this, i hope they add more tracks like this, and possibly more moments with other characters like the spider or the hunters (the other kids that were running around)
@BoyAsVenus I thought the same thing. Probably the best track in the whole game.
I just played the PC version of Limbo a few hours ago, and when the track came up, I couldn't help but smile. I mean it comes out of nowhere, happens on one of the more vague puzzles, and is so short-lived.
This is soooo surreal and beautiful.....this game was truly a Masterpiece. I dont know if i would feel fine with a sequel, because this game is so unique
@FugitiveSquirrelGame I don't know about that. They'll probably just put this style of gameplay as one of the stars into the next mario galaxy, as an homage.
Fun note, forward and backwards it's pretty much the same track.

Poor kid is trapped in this isolated, dangerous world just trying to find his sister.
By far my favorite track in the game.
