Listen to MGSV’s ‘Quiet Theme’, now with vocals (played at E3 2015)

At the MGSV E3 2015 booth a familiar song could be heard: the theme fans will recognize from the beginning of the E3 2013 trailer, but this time with vocals. We don’t know the name of the song yet, so until that time fans have called it the ‘Quiet Theme’. You can listen to a recording of this song below (through the noise), thanks to Metal-Gear.net, who uploaded it to their Vimeo channel.

The quality isn’t the best of course, but it’s worth a listen nonetheless.

    It is not the voice of Donna Burke maybe is performed by Stefanie Joosten,
    This would explain why ”Quiet Theme”

  • It sounds like a Disney princess song (Or maybe it doesn’t. I’ve never seen any Disney princess movies.)

    • Aka everything but Lion King and Hercules? Jeez.

      • I don’t understand what you’re trying to say.
        But I’ve only seen a very small part of Lion King and never seen Hercules. I don’t even recall any Disney movies that I’ve fully seen. Disney movies just aren’t my thing. Hell, most movies in general aren’t really my thing.

        • I’m saying nearly every disney animated film is based around a disney princess, just seems odd to be that out of the cultural loop on those.

          • Well, yea. But like I said, movies in general aren’t really my thing. I’d rather play video games.

  • Sounds like a sad song.
    I see it played a the end with the credits.

    • Honestly, he should end this one on Space Oddity and Ashes to Ashes.

      Works just as well as it would’ve for Snake Eater.

    • Yeah doesn’t really sound like her. Wonder who this is.

      Do you think she was supposed to sing it, but since she lashed out against Konami when that whole KojimaVSKonami thing was going on they changed the singer? I mean she always talked about this song being separate from sins of the father but never said it was sang by someone else. These are all baseless assumptions.

        Don’t think so, this is Kojima’s game. Maybe Donna Burke didn’t sing this song after all ….

      Pretty sure it’s gunna be Stephanie Joosten, Quiets Model actress AND Voice actress, it would make sense.

        Stefanie has an European accent when she speaks English. The one singing doesn’t. But who knows, maybe she did sing it. 🙂

        We’ll find out when the game comes out.

          Lots of singers with accent lose their accent with song. Can’t remember anyone at the top of my head though

            Donna Burke seems to lose her accent when she sings, too.

  • Raymondius

    Could someone write down the lyrics? Don’t really understand them, although it seems it starts like The Boss’ song: “sing a song”… Right?

    • Hm, something like this?

      … the past
      … so free
      And you hold me down
      Should have left it all for you
      For tomorrow
      As the time draws near
      … live in fear
      Could have have left it all for you

      Someone able to add to it / correct it?

        Thanks a lot! It’s the first step, someone will be able to add words.

            Well, I got some of those too like ‘so free’ and ‘the past’, well I guess we’ll find out very soon… Can’t believe only 73 days left…

          • Yeah TPP is so close ^____^!

      • invader_skoodge

        What I heard at the beginning was:

        “……………Sing my song.
        Sounds of time will pass.(?)
        They move so free, deep inside(?)
        memories(?) I want to get them too
        So I can see what we mended
        oh hold me down and remember now
        should have left it all for you, for tomorrow
        As the time draws near, will you live in fear?
        Could have left it all for you, when it’s (Cold or gone)(?)

        I can’t make out some of the things because the poor audio and because she’s really stretching those vowels so I don’t know when one word begins and another ends. I don’t know if it’s accurate or not. but I gave it a shot.

      oops I meant to post it here.

      “……………Sing my song.

        Nice! Now it makes a bit more sense. Maybe someone can correct you, I sure can’t.

          I’m 100% half sure that I’m almost certain that maybe these might be somewhat correct or incorrect, perhaps. ;P

            I’m absolutely convinced you are 100% right in those things you have said except the ones that are not correct, so rest easy.

    Off topic but did anyone else love that desert scarf big boss wore during first gameplay? It makes everything feel cooler with it

  • This song is gonna make us cry, I freaking KNOW it.

    Maybe when the time to pull the trigger comes? Just imagine Big Boss with his gun on his hand and Quiet’s bloody body in the ground. Add some references to The Boss’s death and start using those kleenex.

    That’s truly beautiful. The saddest part in which it could play is when the credits roll 🙁

    Why are all these awesome songs so hidden, KOJIMA STOP HIDING THINGS FROM US! lol. I just have to wait for the soundtrack, or finish the game which ever comes first, lol, I probably will not listen to it though until I get a chance to hear it in game first though, maybe.
