Although "Silent Hill 2" is a horror game, the songs in the game are very fresh and beautiful. For example, the very popular "Promise" is from this game. Here are the songs from the game Theme song introduction.
Silent Hill 2's more famous songs:
"Promise" and the Reprise version
"Theme of Laura" and the Reprise version
"True"
"Love Psalm"
The songs in "Silent Hill 2" are all composed by the well-known music producer Akira Yamaoka, the most famous of which is "Promise", even if Many players who have not played the Silent Hill game have also heard this song. What is embarrassing is that this song has been used by a men's hospital to advertise, which can be said to be very insulting. The theme song of "Promise" has two meanings. One is that at the beginning of the game, the protagonist James Sunderland received a letter from his late wife Mary who passed away three years ago. The new content is that in my dream, I saw that town. ?Silent Hill, you promised to take me there, but you never did. The second is James's promise to Maria in the second ending, but in the end Maria developed the same symptoms as his late wife. What's even more ironic is that "Promise" finally appeared as the theme song for the ending of Fantasy Lover Maria (after recalling the truth, finally leaving Silent Hill with Maria, the incarnation of the ideal lover in his heart), many players who have never played the game I think this song describes redemption, but the real meaning of "Promise" is betrayal.
In fact, "Promise" is not the theme song of the game. The real theme song of the game is "Theme of Laura", and Akira Yamaoka has clearly stated that it is his favorite song he has ever written. Laura is a little girl in the game. The Silent Hill in her eyes is different from the one in James's eyes. In the eyes of Uncle James, who is full of psychological trauma, it is a weird town full of monsters, but in Laura's eyes, Silent Hill is nothing more than a strange town full of monsters. It's just a deserted ordinary town. This song contains not sadness, but hope. It does not want to make people feel afraid of sadness, but to teach players to learn to be brave.
