Silent Hill 2 - Alone in the Town (Extended 1 Hour Loop) 

This town is full of monsters, how could you just sit there and eat pizza?!

not one single game has ever beaten Silent Hill 2's melancholy feeling.

This town is full of pizza, how could you sit there and eat monsters?!

Taking a walk in the rain at night, with this playing in my ears is an amazing sensation

This is like my dreams. Everything is normal, and yet you feel something isn't quite right.

It's like music for time between 3am and 5 am. You're tired and on a lonely road back home from a long trip across the country.

PlayStation 2 was the most nostalgic era. It captured the rawness of reality. It had tons of good games, the best games, cheap games. The industry veterans who worked on ps1, Nintendo and ps2 are all but gone. Games were made to be games. Look at the background of the image in the video, really trippy and immersive. They used much better imagery back then to immerse the level within.

Love that bassline. It reminds me of Twin Peaks.

Yamaoka is a musical genius, period!

Could you imagine if all the guys responsible for SH2 reunited and made a proper Silent Hill 5?

The bass has just 3 notes, but hits very deep. This song is so relaxing in a world full of suffering

Words can't express how much this game means to me

Older games much more atmospheric

I never get sick of this song/loop. I've listened to it so many times. It really helps you to think about life. Not only is this one of the best songs ever, it's from one of the best games ever! Silent Hill 2

This was Lo-Fi before Lo-Fi existed.

I love how they used downtempo for the soundtrack and you don't hear much of that genre nowadays. It always reminds me of the late 90's to early 2000's. It also encapsulates the deserted, melancholy atmosphere. If you want to find anything similar look for artists like Portishead, DJ Shadow, DJ Krush, Boards of Canada, Amon Tobin and so on.

*Boom Boom bop, boom--boom boom bop* God damn those drums are on point. My favorite part of this beautiful piece is 1:12 to 2:00

When you go shopping during coronavirus pandemic outbreak:

2020....still the best horror game..ever.

Even though I'm depressed as fuck right now, this song is actually helping me to calm down and relax. Thank you, Yamaoka.

Nostalgia is the Best and worst feeling

this helps me pull off all nighters since I started college. great music

Does anyone else get a weird vibe while listening to this and staring at the picture?

To think this song played in a bowling alley of all places.

Ps2 era was the shit man !!

I'll always love the 90's trip hop "Sneaker Pimps" vibe of this song, along with how distant and melancholy it feels at the same time. Thanks for the lovely seamless loop!

It is weird how much you can be attached to the settings of a horror video game such as this one. This music makes it even harder to let go of the game. How many games can top this in recent times? How many games can hold you within their world as you cling to its streets, rooms, otherworldly environment, and the decay of the town and wish you could experience it a bit more longer. I think this game and half life 2 had perfect worlds within them.

Doesn't sound like something you'd hear in a survival horror game. Dope.

some sounds reminds me twin peaks town...great atmosphere silent hill 1&2 game...and music...my english is to weak for say this feeling..

Ever since this game came out, this soundtrack has stuck with me and this song in particular has always been my go-to for winding down

The reason why I love Silent Hill 2 so much is because it focuses on dark, but real subjects, no demonic rituals and crazed serial killers, bible thumping cultists and ....gyromancy.... It's about people with real problems (death of loved one, abuse, murder, etc.), coming to terms with their crimes and overcoming their inner demons. Also (not on topic), I hate it when people compare Pyramid Head with Nemesis from Resident Evil. PH isn't meant to be an invincible monster or demonic bodybuilder trying to murder you, he is supposed to be the punisher of JAMES SUNDERLAND and in someway to represent James' guilt, crimes and lust. He is James' guide to redemption, not a fucking brainless zombie. If you actually look at it from another perspective, PH doesn't focus solely on killing James, he just swings his knife aimlessly around and pretend to be a threat. If he really was there to just kill James, then why didn't he just pull him out of the closet and chop him into pieces. He can easily kill James, but his main purpose is to punish James for his crimes and guide him to redemption, that's why after the final boss fight with PH, they kill themselves, because James finally realizes their purpose and took responsibilty for his sin. Any encounter with Pyramid Head in any silent hill thing outside of Silent Hill 2 is just fanservice and makes no sense. Plus I just hate it that he became the mascot for Silent Hill, he isn't there to murder and rape anything that walks, he WAS there solely to punish James for the sins he has committed. End of story. (Last of all, Revelations is a piece of fucking trash, really, they make PH seem like some fucking demonic gladiator with no actual reason to be there, just to kill and rape, as if that wasn't enough they had to put a BOSS FIGHT between PH and VALTIEL. wtf).

It's raining outside, turn off the light, close your eyes, and free your mind

i remember beign scared by james breathing i did not know at the time it was him breathing lol thought it was a monster or something.

I'm constantly amazed how much effort and attention to detail went into games back then. The fact that we're all still here 20+ years later listening to and making loops of songs from the game is a testament to the dedication and skill of the developers. That being said I genuinely hope for DPRK to conduct a strike against Konami HQ

In a world where two men stand side by side, Connected by a bond, no need to hide. Eight inches of friendship, not what you think, It's the measure of trust, stronger than a link. They navigate life, facing highs and lows, Through laughter and tears, their friendship grows. Eight inches may measure more than length, It's the depth of their bond, a source of strength. Through thick and thin, they stride together, Facing storms and fair weather. Eight inches, not a physical measure, But a symbol of friendship, a lasting treasure

This song sounds so final to me. Sounds like you completed everything you could.

We need Yamaoka back.

Awesome, thanks! I wish Silent Hill 2's OST was on Spotify.

Perfect to listen to on rainy days ! :3

"This town is FULL of monsters. How can you sit here and eat PIZZA??" Cos I'm sitting here chillin' to this awesome music that's how.

1:11 these pads with heavy wow & flutter get me every time, they sound so awesome

This is excellent music to study to!

"It aint nothing to kill someone. Just put the gun to their head and, pow!" Hmmmm. . .Tablet of a Gluttonous Pig huh. Hey Eddie, I think you dropped this.

Video game music is always amazing, particularly horror games.

Nothing like this game and its music will ever be created again.

I See that Town Silent Hill

Love silent hill soundtracks. So majestic and haunting. Love this one the best though. This is the theme of my life. Don't know if that's a good thing..

I need this game in VR to visit this city all day long

I get a Twin Peaks theme vibe from this song, with the spaghetti western sounding guitar in there. Especially such a title as Alone in the Town I have to wonder if it's an intentional little nod

A creepy, haunting and yet catchy song that makes you want to listen for hours on in. And amazing that it's from Silent Hill 2.

It's been ages since this game came out. It hasn't gotten old one bit. Still amazing as it used to be.

Right now i'm Literally strolling through nyc at 5 am to this in complete euphoria..

I used to deliver pizza at night time to this song, driving Alone in my 02 KIA sportage.. man I was just looking for something but could never find it where I was at.

The BEST Silent Hill by FAAAAR. The soundtrack, the feeling of dread, despair, darkness, the twist at the end. Nothing stacks up even now.

Eating pizza was so worth it.

Congratulations of 1 million views and listens to this melancholic song 👍

Jacob's Ladder is this great film that tells the story of Jacob Singer (Tim Robbins) dealing with a nightmare of a life instigated by his time in Vietnam War. His journey throughout the film reminded me so much James Sunderland's journey. Later I come to learn that Silent Hill 2 was heavily inspired by this film. J.S is the initials of both main characters. Both wear the same army-type jacket. Both deal with nightmare fuel encounters. Both have an exotic female antagonist on some spooky shit. Both deal with questionable characters in a world that doesn't respond to their own fears. Both travel down a spiral of madness to come to terms with past grief. Both are ************ ******** ******* at the end of their journeys. I say if you like Silent Hill 2. Watch Jacob's Ladder (original version with Tim Robbins)

It is good to see that Silent Hill is finally coming back.

I absolutely adore this track, those drums paired with the haunting melody conjure up some intense feelings.

Watched my old brother playing this game when I was a kid (10 yo or something) and when I was 14 I discovered the soundtrack and listened to it a very long time!!! When the HD Remastered released, I've played it by myself and I must say, it's my most favorite horrorgame of all time! Thank you Akira Yamaoka for this masterpiece!

Finally the darkness envelopes you, as you always knew it would.

Won't play the remake. Just don't wanna to ruin one of the better things I had the honor to encounter in my life. IDGAF about realism or "professional" voice acting. There's only one SH series I know, and it's a masterpiece without any fancy modern sh*t

Ahh late 90s, early 2000s miss these times. Feel to go back in time. Future is dead, society is corrupt, to love is to die.... Wish I could dwell in a dream world where I can be free and listen to this track.

This reminds me of that late middle school/ early highschool time, Biking home at night through my town from a good day only to repeat it again the next, so unaware of the troubles that lurk in my future

If you dare dislike this Pyramid Head comes for you. You have to walk from one corner of your bedroom to another 47 times.

I love that “old movie” vibe on the first silent hill games

Make Sure the Future Generation gets to know about this classic masterpiece..if u have kids let them know.

I think it's my favorite song next to Breeze in the Monochrome Night.

Perfect music to fall asleep (..in a good way)

The Silent Hill 2 soundtrack didn't need to go this hard...or did it? 23 years later and here I am.

This pizza is full of towns, how could you just sit there and eat monsters?!

This is what it feels like leaving silent hill. That introverted presence you bring with yourself surviving a very personal hell that others just wont and dont comprehend. Your own walk of life, your own journey, your own hell. We do not know why, but for each person their reasons varying, will be drawn to silent hill one way or another. Each with their own story, trials, and puzzles to solve to ultimately pass, and move on to the next chapter in life.

i remember the day this game was released for ps2, damn good old days

If I'm alone in town then how come I see people

*i love this song so much*

I don't know why but I like listening to this while eating pizza alone

love this. a good song to listen to if your down or depressed. makes me think of living in Maine for some reason

2020. Podría decir que en este año me ayudo a rebcociliarme conmigo mismo. Aveces regresan las memorias de culpa y daño que hice días o años atrás. Incluso no me dejan dormir. Pero a estas alturas no me afecta mas. Cada vez que un día sea más de lo mismo para mi. Siempre regreso a este video a saber que todo lo que sucede estará bien. Incluso en las situaciones difícil no se debe apagar la llama.

Riding a bike at night with this hits different

Every time I see this scene and I hear this soundtrack, I feel the void and many things I couldn't understand. This is amazing. No other music and scene make me feel these emotions... So my favorite game is Silent Hill 2. It's story, characters, places, atmosphere, briefly everything is a masterpiece. Thank you Team Silent and Akira Yamaoka...

This game is so awesome in design, that I look forward to cloudy rainy days just to play this music.

This song feels like trying to smile but not being able to

One of the most important games and soundtracks of all time.

feel like it's snowing

For a moment, imagine tank-controllling Norman Reedus through the town in full hd, then going into an empty bar and hearing this

Walking around campus on a cloudy day with slight rain. Alone yet content because this track bussin

I listened this song when i go to the streets in quarantine only few people and lonelyness in the air shopping the basics damn you! coronavirus

I remember playing this in 2001 on my playstation 2, unforgettable...the feeling of loneliness, emptiness and melancholy that this game passes has no equal in game history

Crazy how I keep coming back to Sileht Hill OST. I feel like nothing will ever top it. In everyday life I mostly listen to various type of electronic music, but Silent Hill OST has always been here, fitting every time of the day, every mood i'm in. Hats off to you Akira Yamaoka !

I could totally see myself listening to this while i roam the commercial district of some big american city late at night. Nothing but empty stores and manicured roads with no trees.

As it was said a number of times Silent Hill 2 is quite related to depression. Yet tracks like "Heaven's Night' , "Theme of Laura" and this one feels like when depression fade out for a short time as a moment of relief.

This song is amazing! However, I'm looking for a recording of the ambience that plays right after the cutscene detailed in the screenshot above on the video, where James is standing at the edge of the overlook point after the cutscene has played where he thinks about the letter from Mary. I have no idea what that ambience is called, but it's soothing.

Best horror survival game in decades. Best soundtrack i have ever heard in a game.

Driving a car along at night on the hill fog and rain.

Silent Hill has some of the best video game music. Always takes me to another place. Thank you for uploading!

Beautiful...and sad.

When im on the exams period, I always use this to study!! It really helps me to concentrate. Btw, awesome game & soundtrack.

Funny i used to listen to this during my freshman year in university, the school would be foggy in the morning for those 8 am classes so it fit pretty well. Now that im graduating it feels like a trip. This song got me through it all

A couple of years ago, the company I was working for undertook a couple of hardware installation jobs for low-income apartment buildings. Both areas had their own solemn airs to them, the smell of cat piss and dark hallways between units. This song reminds me a lot of those long January days in those dark apartments, you'd walk into some units and the tenants would be stalking around inside in their own darkness and sometimes hoarded environments. In retrospect, it sort of feels like an alternate reality, but I am glad I got to do those jobs, I met some really awesome people!
