I started watching Vampire Knight several nights ago and the first time I heard this song, my ears pricked. I’ve turned away from my dark ambient goth ways years ago but whenever I hear such a beautiful song in a genre that I really loved long ago I can’t help but slide back into my former self and enjoy it.
This is 19 year old Kanon Wakeshima’s debut song and it is yet uncertain if she will continue with a full album. She started playing the cello at the age of 3. She first performed as a cellist-singer at the age of 16. For more information about her go to her website: http://www.kanonweb.jp/
Also, forgive me on being late on this. What do you expect?! I just learned of it a couple days ago.

I also love this song! It really fits the gothic ambience of Vampire Knight. The song is reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland but in a twisted kinda way.

You know, I thought of it as Alice In Wonderland too when I very first heard it!
There is a video game by American McGee called ‘Alice’ and that’s a pretty messed up game in itself. It’s the morbid continuation of Alice after the original book. I can’t remember exactly but it has to do something with her being in a mental institution due to her parents dying in a fire.
The way Wakeshima plays the cello is wicked. I wish it would focus more on her playing it though.
