I've always loved this piece, it's so simple yet so effective. The way the scale never reaches out to the dominant reminds me of how James can't reach out to Maria and how trapped he is by guilt. So sad...
Just passed this part of the game... I'll never forget the feeling of melancholy and resignation I got after Maria's death, just awesome... thank you, Mr. Yamaoka.
I always back to listen to this piece when I feel depress and almost resign myself to the fate This tune sound very lonely, looming with guilt, relive you with recent past of your failure, especially in relationship, yet it has a vibe of relief and bittersweet
I love empty music like this. It helped my progress through a nasty writers block on a novel I am working on where the protagonist has lost his daughter and due to the circumstances on how she died her very existence has gone. No one besides the protagonist knows she existed and so he is the only one who can grieve for the death. The death of the daughter he now never had.
I second Shiya's question. If it's out there, could you message me or something? I'd like to read it, and tell you a bit about the things I'm working on (I'm also an author).
This reminds me when you are grown up and you gotta to be stronger in life... And pass adversity, fear and to be yourself.... Very nice masterpiece, thanks akira
The moment when you realize every f. Day you surrounded by chances you never have chance to archive.. Everything beathifull just running by not stop for you. And leave you empty.. Just a shell survive, live for another day. To watch
The definition of lost. The manifestation of emptiness, nothingness... A suffocating void and a living corpse holding a shattered hope that was never meant to be.
When this song came up...I walked around the floor at the hospital for no reason. Just listened to this song and realized what happened. A true masterpiece...listening to this at a 3000€ home theater speaker system give me so much relaxation. Sitting in my sofa and doing nothing, but listening to it. :-) Feeling deeply relaxed after it.
I'm crying so hard listening to this song right now because I'm ADHD and I suffer so much from life. I know everyone has their personal problem, but since my childhood I cry and I get rejected by others even in my adult life because I am very restless and happy. This is something that makes me cry. and this song described to me something like lost a part of me. And I'm afraid of losing the good things I have in life, it's not so much, but I value it a lot!
find yourself something that you can be inspired by. it helped me . I am also being scolded by everyone now, at music school, at home, at a regular school, everywhere. but... I can't just give up. I have exams on my nose, will listen to me and my whining. Buddy, I advise you to get inspired. anything. Music. Games. books. You just try, and it will go by itself
I feel this track conveys the feeling of being at a loss for words. Being unable to process what has just happened. Realizing once again you could do nothing to help what was in front of you. That’s why James sulks in silence and is left alone once again.
You're gonna laugh but I wasn't at all sad. I was really really satisfied. Let me explain. I always felt strongly about the plots in Silent Hill. But this is the one event in which I didn't feel sad at all. For one reason. When I got SH2, I played straight on Hard, since I had beaten SH1 with 10 stars a few weeks before that. But the Pyramid head chase ... I didn't understand that shooting the hell out of him slowed him down. To me, he slowed a bit when you shot him and that was all. So, for about three hours, I was trying to flee him with Maria, shooting him once in the head every three seconds, while walking backwards, and strafing when I came to an angle. But fuckin' Maria got in my line of fire EVERY SINGLE TIME the was a camera angle change. I lost count of the number of times she RAN in PLAIN MIDDLE of my line of fire. And when she was staying on the side, it was Pyramid Head who managed to land a 3rd hit on her (on hard she dies on the third) a few moments before reaching the elevator. Then a pal came over and suggested I shoot Pyramid Head 5 times in a row in the head, then run a full corridor, turn back, shoot him again 5 times and so forth. SOOOOO ... when I got to the elevator I was happy. And when I saw Maria didn't manage to get in, I was shouting something like "THAT WILL TEACH YOU TO PUT YOURSELF IN FRONT OF ME WHEN I AM SHOOTING THE ENEMY YOU BITCH !" But then a few minutes later, when I calmed down I did feel sad. But really, not on the moment. Took a few minutes to the music to catch on to my feelings XD
@@tywinlannister8015 DUDE YES I played in hard and I was so god damn pissed after that Maria scene, I'm ashamed to admit I was glad she's dead, I got sad about her death while walking too the historical society, and missed her while I was roaming the jail in my own. I guess that's kinda how James felt about Mary.
This is the perfect atmosphere for the beginning of one of my WIPs. In the beginning, we're introduced to the main character, a boy of eleven years old, a quiet, shy little thing eternally bonded to his thirteen year-old best friend. The soft, tranquil feeling fits the beginning of them sitting on a branch, high in a tree, above everything and untouched by the true worries of adolescence and adulthood, but the older boy decides to head down the tree. The empty quality fits the aftermath of him being knocked out of the tree by a rock, thrown by an unknown person from the woods behind him, and killed. The rest of the book focuses on the other boy as he grows older, still dealing with his best friend's death, and now the target of his killer. I'm glad to have found a song that so exactly fit what I was trying to capture. Thanks for uploading.
*sit on armchair, head down, hands together and finger grazing forehead* *song starts playing* Me: *geez* It has passed almost 2 years since you left us, Grandma...
First year of release: Holy s**t dude Pyramid Head is scary! Decades after release: Everyday I have to live with the agonizing truth, that I killed the one I loved. But did I really love her? I just don't know anymore...
I’ve always loved silent hill ….. sometimes I’m really confused as to the things I should be acknowledging but as through time passes I seem to lose focus and just live in some despaired hopeless moments which are happening in the now ……. Somehow I keep grasp of certain things and silent hill is one of them …… my sisters name is or was Magdalene …..
@wickedslicks1003 btw where's the Toluca lake image from, I don't recognize it in the games, been a while since I played I guess. thanks for all these uploads, must've repeated the song like 12 times to get this
To be entirely fair, their videos aren't very opinionated, they are just based on the facts that are there, and present those facts to back up what they're saying. Also the 'patch' that hardly fixes anything isn't even being released for the 360. The HD Collection isn't even the full finished games of 2 and 3 (Konami has even came out and admitted this) So you're buying unfinished copies of games and giving them your money for them instead of the full copies that are available out there.
If you take requests, mind if you extend Noone Love you? I've been trying to find an extended version, and haven't yet. If you're able to accept this request, thanks for doing so.
Una obra de arte de audio, y más, si la escuchas en una tarde lluviosa. Sólo los que sufrimos de depresión entendemos lo bello de esta melodías. :-):'(:'(:-(
Downpour turned out very interesting but the Silent Hill HD collection now that was bad I still have my original copy of Silent Hill 2 sadly I let a friend from church barrow my copy of SH 3 and well wont see that again
I get where you're coming from, but to be fair if everyone went by that logic, not caring of the laziness that the developers had in dealing with the game and just buying it and appreciating it, developers are going to keep trying less and less harder, considering they can get away with just about anything because gamers 'just appreciate it'. No offense or anything, I just like it when things are finished and done. No other job would let you get away with that.
I've always loved this piece, it's so simple yet so effective. The way the scale never reaches out to the dominant reminds me of how James can't reach out to Maria and how trapped he is by guilt. So sad...
I really wondered why I felt that. Im not so good with music theory but I do feel the "pull" that never resolves
Yes. It's as if the term "quiet desperation" is represented through this music
This to Fermata is soooo gooodd. It really emphasizes the transition from the normal to the paranormal
Curtis are you excited for the remake
Did you hear the remake's use of this piece? I cant wait to hear Akira's new vision of his classic songs.
Just passed this part of the game... I'll never forget the feeling of melancholy and resignation I got after Maria's death, just awesome... thank you, Mr. Yamaoka.
I always back to listen to this piece when I feel depress and almost resign myself to the fate
This tune sound very lonely, looming with guilt, relive you with recent past of your failure, especially in relationship, yet it has a vibe of relief and bittersweet
I have literally been looking for this song forever. It’s been haunting me since a kid. I can’t believe I found it on Halloween...
song hits different when you lose someone close to you
I love empty music like this. It helped my progress through a nasty writers block on a novel I am working on where the protagonist has lost his daughter and due to the circumstances on how she died her very existence has gone.

Is your novel published?

this actually sounds interesting
the book was published on Inkitt, but I am going through re-writes at the moment. It's called Tale of the Wanderer The Game of Blood
@@filmwoodmedia It sounds interesting. I'll have to check it out!
Took me a minute to leave the hospital when this started playing.
restores your mental sanity
At this point I was so striken, I couldn't even go on playing.. I was just walking aimlessly forward, feeling empty.
RIP, Maria (3X)
More like R.I.P. Silent Hill, now that konami has killed the series with that pachinko machine
+clconn1988 I hope they will go bankrupt,
@@clconn1988 There’s some hope, now. _Some._
I felt so hopeless at this point in the game.
I thought this song fit well for the end of the first Silent Hill movie when they whet home! :)
The saddest memories ever while hearing the piano like this. Yet, it also awakens the greatest ones.
These hollow and empty notes really reflect how James must feel here, as well as those who hear them.
Now I realize.. this game's a masterpiece...
Always has been
X2
This track is so simple, and yet it's one of my favorite ones. I don't know. I guess by only having a few notes it makes it sadder.
This one is truly special.
Yamaoka is a genius!!
This reminds me when you are grown up and you gotta to be stronger in life... And pass adversity, fear and to be yourself.... Very nice masterpiece, thanks akira
so peaceful, i hear this ost everytime i feel depressed
This is why i listen every day in my past 15 years maybe...
The moment when you realize every f. Day you surrounded by chances you never have chance to archive.. Everything beathifull just running by not stop for you. And leave you empty.. Just a shell survive, live for another day. To watch
i feel more depressed every time I listen to it honestly
The definition of lost. The manifestation of emptiness, nothingness... A suffocating void and a living corpse holding a shattered hope that was never meant to be.
Silent Hill 2 remake 😍
thats the charm of it, so simple, yet so profoundly saddening and straightforward.

me2.
You weirdly feel safe while this song protects you
I came from the future and this melody is going to be the beginning of the remake's trailer of silent hill... Just mu favorite

When I heard Magdalene first time, I felt emptiness, sorrow and sadness....
This was on the radio at the gas station in Downpour!
In case you’d like to know, the small town across the lake is Keswick in Cumbria, in the north of England
Very interesting. I live in the town of keswick here in Ontario Canada. It also happens to be a small town, or so it used to be.
Was just looking for this. Thanks!
This image is the background from Silent Hill 2's opening parking lot area.
I feel this track conveys the feeling of being at a loss for words. Being unable to process what has just happened. Realizing once again you could do nothing to help what was in front of you. That’s why James sulks in silence and is left alone once again.
The melancholy, the emptiness one feels, and how it feels hollow. God I love this track
The song that almost perfectly describes "You fucked up. It's not your fault but you fucked up."
the first notes always make me think of the goddamn amongus get out of my head
Am I the only one that hears some "paint it black" (rolling stones) in that music?
No paro de escuchar ese soundtrack como el de Forest, perdí a mi amada...
I don't stop listening that soundtrack like the Forest, I lost my love...
Sorry For that, Man
Sorry for that, my friend. Life has a lot of diversity. Unusual things, but that add up to a very interesting experience.
I still remember coming out from under the Brookhaven basement for the first time... fucking torture and tears.
You're gonna laugh but I wasn't at all sad. I was really really satisfied.

My god... this scene still touch my feels ;-;
There was a hole here but it's gone now
Yes, no serioulsy Silent Hill is such a beautifull place to go and to listen. But not to live.
Who want a ride?
At the time that we are listening this beautifull track on Silent Hill 2 its the very first time James begining to understand.....
Extremadamente relajante,una Maravilla,Realmente Indescriptible la sensación que me provoca,que majestuosa y bella melodía.......
"...Did I mess something up? I feel like I failed here," was basically how I felt during this. I even reloaded my save to try and save Maria.

Uma realidade neste mundo é que nada se importa com a dor de nada e ninguém! Mas todos nós sentimos ou sentiremos as dores.
The sound of the music reminds me of shadow of the colossus
Si alguna vez te sentiste culpable por la muerte de la representacion de tu esposa.
Esta es tu cancion.
me hubiese gustado que cuando dice: he recibido una carta de Maria, no puede ser..... dijera no puede ser mate a esa bitch con una almohada XDDD
Very very sad,deep and beautiful
This song just rips my heart into pieces
The same feeling as when you lose Lisa in SH1 .... fck..
I remember that When i heard this music i stayed in the hospital,on that room for a long time...
*sit on armchair, head down, hands together and finger grazing forehead*
*song starts playing*
Me: *geez* It has passed almost 2 years since you left us, Grandma...
This part of the game made me feel very close to the pain that James felt for not being able to save Maria. I love this game so much
La canción más hermosa que EH escuchado
Mary liked to play the piano .
Just experience this yesterday as im Streaming and going through the series for the 1st time and MAN i feel bad for Maria and James
Cuando estas debajo de la lluvia de noche con unas flores casi muertas porque te enteraste de que ella amaba a otro...
Painted Black-The Rolling Stones
Well done yamaoka. 👏
Wow, is that what Toluca Lake is supposed to look like? Me gusta.
listening this at 5:40 PM is a mood
been waiting for this!
=( indeed man
For some reason, a bit of the tune itself makes me think of "I see a red door" from paint it black, does anyone else notice this or is it just me?
First year of release: Holy s**t dude Pyramid Head is scary!
Decades after release: Everyday I have to live with the agonizing truth, that I killed the one I loved. But did I really love her? I just don't know anymore...
i don't like silent hill.... i LOVE IT! :D
I’ve always loved silent hill ….. sometimes I’m really confused as to the things I should be acknowledging but as through time passes I seem to lose focus and just live in some despaired hopeless moments which are happening in the now ……. Somehow I keep grasp of certain things and silent hill is one of them …… my sisters name is or was Magdalene …..
damn seeing maria die was pretty sad especially with this song playing afterwards
LOVE THISSS
i miss you Maria... the Maria ending is the most saddest for me
@wickedslicks1003
btw where's the Toluca lake image from, I don't recognize it in the games, been a while since I played I guess. thanks for all these uploads, must've repeated the song like 12 times to get this
Peace
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!
probably because Downpour was like desperately trying to capture some of that SH 2 magic
É a minha tristeza é o meu vazio é o meu conforto. 🌫️
@unassumption I know took me awhile to get to this one lol.
good to know, will get :)
@unassumption Let me see I think I got the image from photobucket. Not sure on that so I will leave a download link in the description for ya.
It starts a little bit like Ruined Castle Corridor
do you mind if i get a friend of mine? his name is pyramid head
he is a geometry teacher :3
You know, they used a real photo of a lake for the opening shot of silent hill 2, Is this that photo?
so suething
where is the silent hill 2 remake?????
Could be wrong but I believe that image is from The Room.
