Silent Hill 2 OST - Ordinary Vanity

[PublicEnemy04]

Silent Hill manifests itself differently to each individual that steps inside. Depending on their sins and sorrows, as well as their mental state: they may enter a regular northwestern town, or a decrepit asylum. It's ONE town, that everyone experiences differently.

[SuperGhost145]

ok i have a very interesting fact. do you know silent hill was based off a real town in west pennyslavani or however you spell it. the towns name is centralia

[jordyeddytally]

I feel nothingness.

[UniVersAlOtakU]

love this song <3

[HonesttoRatruth]

this sounds like there is nothing to be afraid of and it is all over..........but are you really leaving silent hill forever.

[DragonFly122]

BOOMER-oh wait, it's Eddie.

[kdreamland]

You found him yet? That 1 disliker?

No, but I bet the 'red pyramid thing' did...

[KickFlipO6]

Eddie... be careful.

brhooughogoeohrg

[patoazul87]

i dreamed that i was in silent hill and beyond of the fog and the village of silent hill i was listening ordinary vanity, sorry for my english

[darkangelvicky1]

funny how just playing the soundtrack drags your mind back to that hell

[meg5493]

whats with the one dislike its lik whenever theres something good or beautiful theres always gonna be someone their to dislike it :/

[reneeleach001]

I think this is a perfect theme for Eddie. At the beginning of the song it sounds sorta innocent, like the way Eddie first seems. However, keep listening and u can hear those loud noises in the backround that sound much more evil. This, to me, represents Eddie's mental unstability that you don't notice until later in the game. Well done Akira Yamaoka, well done.

[s33n01d10ts]

Somehow, the music of Silent Hill 2, manages to synchronize with my soul.

[NekaWindtail00]

There's no time to stop and think.

You have to keep moving through the fog and hope that you can find the one you love.

[hellven89]

1 person is still being lost in Silent Hill

[CainG88]

You are walking through a beautiful foggy countryside. The fog clears suddenly and temporarily, and you see the town ahead of you. You feel mixed emotions, you are apprehensive but confident, you don't know what you are doing but you feel you are there for a purpose. The fog envelops you again, and you press on. It is quiet, and you are alone with your thoughts. Why are you here? You are holding the letter tightly, and you place it into your pocket. You walk onward, into the foggy nothingness.

[EpIcPrOdIGyPeRsOn]

I first heard this song properly out of the movie well thats what made me look it up im a massive silent hill fan and i abs love the movie but i can understand why so many fans were pissed at it. I mean accept for the monsters and the sceans they completely changed the story line i mean where is Harry Mason ? And wheres Lisa ? as much as i love the movieandthe plot tbh dont think it has any right to be called SH they should remake it and stick to the plot in the games now tht wud be a film

[Adamdre]

This soundtrack makes me think...

Its calming and all that, but it cam be discomforting, I think this song means that your in Silent Hill, you may or may not survive, But if your going to you cant just hide in that dark corner, either way your life will never be the same again.

[Mariah1461]

What part was this in?

[juniorxx2]

@Mariah1461 When James first meets Eddie as he is throwing up.

[1ApertureRealist]

The truth is: We all live in Silent Hill.

No matter how close you are to people, you always keep things to yourself.

We live in cities of millions, but they might as well be empty.

That's the terrible Irony of this all...

[Firemoon454]

@1ApertureRealist Everybody has their own Silent Hill.....

[WolvenClawPeacemaker]

@Firemoon454 And how!

[thisfireinmyskin]

@Firemoon454 No, Silent Hill was only like that in the second one. Everyone has their own Pyramid Head, though. And it's important to face him, before you become James.

[Razwithz]

@1ApertureRealist that is the beauty of this all

[ProudGayMuslim100]

@1ApertureRealist i live in azerbaijan...

[goodflo911]

@1ApertureRealist nice soundtrack but I feel kinda filthy taht so many emo faggots seem to enjoy this. quotes like: ''Everybody has their own Silent Hill...''

and: ''The truth is: We all live in Silent Hill.

No matter how close you are to people, you always keep things to yourself.

We live in cities of millions, but they might as well be empty.

That's the terrible Irony of this all...''

Jeez, they seem written by 8 year olds or people that never had some maturity. nice music tho

[NarutoDipShit]

@goodflo911

LOL says the guy who calls himself a troll fucking idiot

[MerelFollowTV]

@goodflo911 you don't really think that the world is really all hapyness? There is nothing wrong with emo, that's 1 and Silent Hill is comparable to our world, how it really is and not how tvshows let us see, that's 2. I bet you are going to say that I'm an emo faggot, like you said in your comment that ''filthy emo faggots'' seem to enjoy this. So? Maybe I'm a proud ''filthy'' emo :p

[goodflo911]

@MerelFollowTV Nono, sadness is integral to existing/existing, the emo culture however, or people that take a simplistic story in a game like silent hill serious are more childlike in nature. You see, you can't see something as sad without accepting there is good, and vice versa, to clinge too much to one side is a sign of oversimplification/unacceptanc­e of reality and mental immaturity.

TLDR: Yes, I think you are an emo whore (ur gurl so)

[minipaganini]

@1ApertureRealist It's called having intimacy, not having the Silent Hill syndrome.

[FrancisGumb]

@1ApertureRealist i thought it wuz about monsters an stuff.

[eSFreSHneSS96]

@1ApertureRealist your fcked up in the head.

[mgsfan002]

@eSFreSHneSS96 Yet he's the one with the top comment. *trollface*

[eSFreSHneSS96]

@mgsfan002 yeh hes probably having a bat about it right now

[SIRDECOY]

@1ApertureRealist same city, different redemption

[pohuuns]

@1ApertureRealist +1

[JeMapelleFrancis]

@1ApertureRealist

You may have just made the best discovery in history. ;3

[1ApertureRealist]

@JeMapelleFrancis Lol how are people still responding to this ^^

I should go in a textbook :D

[JeMapelleFrancis]

@1ApertureRealist

You sould. *_*

[KxK96]

I am sometimes too lazy to keep trying on life and I think it would be better to live in Silent hill than anywhere else , yeah i know ur fears materialize into town creatures but at least you got nothing to lose, nothing to fight for.

[DevinFilms66792]

feeling lonely like a ghost, wandering around, waiting for that day of attention, false hope huh?

[Naroon201]

This song seems to be the perfect one to let you realize just how lonely you really are in Silent Hill. The endless thick fog combined with the dark of night, creatures moving around in unknown places, and lucid dark thoughts racing through your head. It drives you to a point of euphoria, but not before you come crashing down to reality to realize what comes ahead.

[rainethesage]

Very lonely.

...well, I'm alone there now...

...in our "special place..."

...waiting for you...

[Maddiizz]

For some strange reason, this track makes me think of "Salad Fingers".

[jmar505]

@Maddiizz  wats salad fingers?

[MrOppourtunity]

It's as if you're standing inside your house, 200 years after you've lived in it, all abandoned, broken and decayed. The memory of your life rushes through you, people walk in and out, to and from parts of the house.. and then for no reason they all start crying. You don't remember that memory, and you don't even see yourself in the scene. Then you see that your friends and family have gathered to mourn on your painless death. You realize that you never woke up from the night before....

[MrOppourtunity]

@MrOppourtunity And you break down in tears collapsing at your knees, how painful it is to watch your family say goodbye to you without you being able to return the favor. Wishing you could rewind the clock to tell them how much you cared for them and appreciated all that they've done for you... but all that is ash and brimstone now...

[nile1love]

@MrOppourtunity nice..very visual..look for noone love you for my comments..you'll like it..XD..also laura plays the paino..and heavens night:)

[Raziax4]

@MrOppourtunity ....

[nile1love]

um....when is someone gonna talk about how they feel when hearing this song?...lolXD

[Shaeam]

@Surgio1 NO HE PLAYS GRAND THEFT AUTO SA

@SoApBoX Wii isnt in anyway considered a console.

[zlollylawz]

@Shaeam LOL GRAND THEFT AUTO XD

[blackcry22]

i know ill find myslef facing some of the people i hate and like to kill...Chris,Danny,Arthur,Gavi­n....yea they are going to be my bosses.and then Pyramid head,then the final boss will be myself.

[ZangetsuLover]

@blackcry22 .....Got a therapist? Hate is a powerful word, most of us don't even understand the true feeling of it, better yet, even grasp the meaning of the word. Same with love. Sure, we may love our parents, due to that one symbiotic feeling that we all hold dear with each other, but with hate.... No. Just an over used term to express on how much we dislike someone, whether due to annoyance at school. Or just because you got picked on at school... we don't understand the true meaning of hate.

[blackcry22]

@ZangetsuLover Why thanks for the lecture ZangetsuLover(no not sarcasm) and nooope i dont need a therapist ,i do consider myself Mentally Disturbed though :))

[peoplespest154]

@ZangetsuLover If you hate something or someone, you will kill it no matter what it may would take. The extinction of the source of your hatred. That´s what hate is about ^^

[Emblemz]

i wish i could go to silent hill...i want to find my true answers that lies in the unknown. answers for my insanity that exists in my deep ambient sorrow...

[Clempath]

@Emblemz Have fun....

[IndiLeoFan]

How beautiful... This song shows exactly the contrast, which i felt during the whole game.

For me, Silent Hill is a story of love & hate, being comfortable & agony, hope & sadness, revenge & making amends...

[KaiserVadin]

@IndiLeoFan Part of me is like " Why didn't anyone destroy silent hill already >_< "

[lacktheknack]

@KaiserVadin

Watch the joke ending of SH3... that will make you feel better.

Oh, and because anyone who tries to destroy it gets eaten alive.

[KedViper]

@lacktheknack Yeah, that's why in Silent Hill 4 you don't actually go to Silent Hill, I think.

[MunchyToast001]

Why does everyone takes life seriously ? , Nobody gets alive out anyways.

[kazijamisima]

It is so conforting ....like all of Akira Yamaoka songs .

[TheSophist2007]

this soundtrack made a major part of the game!!! it is brilliant

[HoroGirl]

I feel like I can sleep now v.v

[Bop1998]

im at peace... :)

[SingingMachineez]

This music puts me in a peaceful state of mind.

But for some reason I would LOVE to visit silent hill!

[KaiserVadin]

The games need to be longer, and creepyer and they need to bring back the normal staff for the games so we all can be scared to go to bed !

[gerudobombshell]

@KaiserVadin Agreed. Also, they need to bring you back to kindergarten. You know, for your 'abc's and your punctuation?

[carminefan1990]

@gerudobombshell ok ok,dont be an ass...

[georgepaddon1996]

The Music In This Game Is Creepy, when i played through the music really is a big part of the game and it made the atmosphere all scary :P

[Pillozilla]

Eugh.. the first time I heard this, I felt sick. Which was a few seconds ago. it makes my heart hurt, like im about to vomit out something that I never ate..;

[KxK96]

oh like Eddie lol

[FinalFantasyLov3r124]

That's weird... No offence of course

[gerudobombshell]

@FinalFantasyLov3r124 Yea, that's just way out there man, totally crazy weird. On a completely seperate note, Silent Hil.... - . -

[Edthestrange]

It sounds like the song is burping every now and then. No wonder why this fits Eddie.

[luv4Aerith]

I'm guys, stop having such a pity party over the fact that Akira left Konami... it doesn't mean he's gonna stop composing for Silent Hill, he's just going freelance.

[ArkhanTheBlack1]

Eddie's Puke Music! Classic scene

[Oerjeke]

"Eddie's Puke Music"

Do you have any idea how idiotic that sounds xD

[ArkhanTheBlack1]

Hey, thats what it reminds me of. Scene/sound association and all that. I get an image of Eddie spewing into that horrible crap stained, limescale covered toilet. "HUEEEURGGH!" That IS what happens in the scene! Would "EDDIE'S SYMPHONY OF VOMITUS" sound less idiotic for you? Whats idiotic about saying it as it is?

[Oerjeke]

Heyheyhey! I didn't mean to insult xD You must admit that "Eddie's puke music" sounds pretty stupid =D Mine puke music is the Benny Hill- theme =)

[ArkhanTheBlack1]

No problem chief. Its a quality track from probably my favorite SH game of the series. Probably deserves a more fitting description than "puke music" i agree, just me being daft saying the first thing that comes into my head

[klaus442]

silent hill ost is god tier

[elbenjo90]

creepy song

[bobocpe]

Greatest psychodelic shit ever made!!! All hail Yamaoka

[oly355]

that's bad he left Konami.. I believe SH is really dead..... omg.. it makes me sad =(

[JukemDrawles89]

silent hill is not the same without team silent :-(

[Mini2999]

I agree. SH is dead. I was very disappointed that Akira left Konami. NO ONE will be as good as he was with music. I just don;t understand why he decided to leave. Without him, there is no Silent Hill.

[oly355]

well it can be like all men, because of money ='/

i gess we wont know for now.. it sucked, but let's just remember the good time with the best survival horror series =)

[Elitedeath1]

this played where Eddie is throwing up

[sigilumsanguis]

can't remember either but it's in the movie just as rose enters silent hill...

[Oerjeke]

What part did this play at? Can't remember! HELP!

[Beletgeuse]

I've been trying to remember the same thing. I'm almost considering a new playthrough just to figure it out. My intuition says that it plays sometime during the Hospital Visit.

[Oerjeke]

Hmmm... The cut-scene where James get's out of the elevator after the chase?

[Beletgeuse]

that one's called "Magdalene." I'll figure it out and get back to you.

[AlgungLao]

No. =)

[Beletgeuse]

It plays when Eddie is throwing up in Woodside Apartments I think.

[AdaptRogue]

It played when James found Eddie in the bathroom. I think it played in the movie too..

[bloodydragon]

The movie was teh shiiit~ 5 stars babeh!

[QueenAlexiaAshford27]

yeah it was! it just took away the feeling of silent hill... but pyramid head looks cool

[HotKebab]

I think it was used when James was talking to Eddie in the bathroom. :)

[NocturnalPyro]

*sigh* 2 is my absolute favorite game, not only in the Silent Hill series but as a whole. The music only completes the beautiful and terrifying story.

[MetroCop357]

sadness, memories, nervousness and the twilight hours of the sun setting in the sky...thats what this song makes me think of

[Catergory5Hurricane]

I have to say that I like it, as it evokes unease, relaxation, and anticipation of a MAJOR, and deadly event.

[AmonRa1081]

I love this track but it is waay to short.

[DevilDogMuNky]

Eddy:" Killin' a person aint no big deal, just put the gun to their head...and...."

[ikarmation]

heavy:POW, haha.

[Erin200]

Akira Yamaoka never fails to amaze me with his beautiful music.

[Maikanno]

I think this song also plays in the movie :S

[MimeOfBennetosh]

Yep! it plays when Sharon and her mother are sitting in a tree ^^

[fallenskater534]

This track is calming, but it comes with a sense of unease...

I like it.

[Surgio1]

Gosh I love this track. Favorite album from the series.

[Surgio1]

I wonder if Obama plays Silent Hill....

[SoApBoX]

That's an interesting question...you have to wonder what games people in the white house play. I mean, he has two kids in there, there ought to be a Wii somewhere. :p

[AGamerfull]

@SoApBoX I bet they play Call of Duty Online lol

[Panesthesia]

@SoApBoX He probably plays WITH them.

[nile1love]

@Surgio1 nah..this game is too much..too sad..and politicians (what ever party they are in) cannot and will not come to terms with the truth..

[IcyCoolX]

@Surgio1 he'll turn this country into silent hill just imagine pyramid head is bill clinton!

[StreetBalla36]

@Surgio1 good question! lol maybe he plays Silent Hill in his sleep that is if he owns the game or his kids do.

[Aeris56]

@Surgio1 LOL

[mooglemadness]

@Surgio1 Well kids, this it what happens when you take things from that strange smelling man on the street and smoke them. I want this to be a lesson to you. Remember. The Pyramid doesn't forget...

[AGamerfull]

@Surgio1 Hes a pyramid head for sure lol

[jackieben94]

@Surgio1

Dammit no he doesn't, he's too stupid for this kind of psychological art!

Why you even asking this?

[SakuraOfTheSand]

@Surgio1 ...he doesn't seem the type. And he's pretty busy with all the President stuff going on--I mean, at least I HOPE he would be busy. Cuz stuff needs fixing.

You know what? If he did play, he could declare an official Silent Hill Day. Somebody should send him a copy!

[MegadethEternally]

@SakuraOfTheSand He does own a wii >_>;

[Darkness101010]

@Surgio1 hahahaha really cool your commentary....i can imagine obama playing silent hill 2....scared as shit

[WildDiscoDance]

@Surgio1 I wish Silent Hill would play with Obama if you know what i mean ;)

[tybash]

@Surgio1

He does, if you watch his daily youtube uploads he mentions his favorite games, his music and some pretty interesting stuff he does with other presidents.

[yumiko0017]

@Surgio1 if i was president i would, this music will be a away of escape for me. (=

[tallyhoman911]

@Surgio1 what a random question lol

[capcomman1]

@Surgio1 that's a incredible question

[jblazenixmaggot1234]

Yeah, STOP talking about other things then SILENT HILL!!!

[Cho0u3tte]

It's beautiful.

[nile1love]

g6y4FtJJ-v4

[IgibberI]

[IgibberI]

[mf91007]

[IgibberI]

[354Entertainment]

[UnknownBeast2010]

This song played sometime during the begining parts of Silent Hill the movie. Another one of my favorites!
