Here's to You

Here's To You is the second vocal song for Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns Of The Patriots. It is the second Metal Gear song not to be written in-house at Kojima Productions. However, unlike the first such song, Way To Fall, it was commissioned by Hideo Kojima specifically for the game.

The music was originally written by famous Italian Composer Ennio Morricone with lyrics written and sung by Joan Baez. It was written in 1971 for the film "Sacco E Vanzetti." Morricone won the Nastro d'Argento trophy for his composition.

For Guns of the Patriots, Harry Gregson-Williams re-arranged the song with vocals sung by Lisbeth Scott. This version is much slower than the slightly up-tempo pacing of the original.

Lyrics

Here's to you, Nicola and Bart Rest forever here in our hearts The last and final moment is yours That agony is your triumph
