Background
The song is yanagiP's most notable work. Not only is this KAITO's first song to have reached one million views, it's also the first KAITO original song to have hit the first rank on the Weekly VOCALOID Ranking. This folk song has many remixes; an album with the title A Thousand-Year Solo was released featuring three remixes by three different producers (sasakure.UK, k-shi, and baker). KAITO Append's version was used as a demo and can be heard in the album VOCALOID Minzoku Chou Kyokushuu.
An interpretation of the song tells of an "artificial" being (KAITO) who is singing a song to someone (possibly a love interest) who has passed away. Even though thousands of years have passed since that person died, and "he" knows that he can never see "that person" ever again, KAITO keeps on singing for that person (thus explaining the title of the song, a thousand year solo).
This song is featured on the compilation albums EXIT TUNES PRESENTS Vocalonation feat. 初音ミク, DEBUTANTE, VOCALOID BEST from Nico Nico Douga (Blue), Hatsune Miku -Project DIVA- extend Complete Collection and KAITO 10th Anniversary -Glorious Blue-.

Lyrics
| Japanese (日本語歌詞) | Romaji (ローマ字) |
|---|---|
| ひとり灰色の丘 乾いた枯草踏みしめて | hitori haiiro no oka kawaita karekusa fumishimete |
| 思い巡らせる 空の彼方に | omoi meguraseru sora no kanata ni |
| 風に揺れる花びら 柔らかなあなたの微笑み | kaze ni yureru hanabira yawaraka na anata no hohoemi |
| 淡い記憶のかけら セピア色の向こうの幻 | awai kioku no kakera sepia iro no mukou no maboroshi |
| 誰も知らない 歌を奏でよう | dare mo shiranai uta wo kanadeyou |
| この身が錆びて 停まろうとも | kono mi ga sabite tomarou to mo |
| 崩れかけた墓標に 歌い続けよう | kuzure kaketa bohyou ni utai tsudzukeyou |
| あなたの 残した歌を | anata no nokoshita uta o |
| この体は全て 作り物でしかないけど | kono karada wa subete tsukurimono de shikanai kedo |
| この心はせめて 歌に捧げていよう | kono kokoro wa semete uta ni sasagete iyou |
| 沈む夕陽に向かう 色あせたギターを片手に | shizumu yuuhi ni mukau iroaseta gitaa o katate ni |
| 響くこだまに踊る 影法師 | hibiku kodama ni odoru kageboushi |
| 擦り切れた指先は 光を鈍く照り返して | surikireta yubisaki wa hikari wo nibuku terikaeshite |
| 口ずさむメロディは 風に乗って空の向こうまで | kuchizusamu merodi wa kaze ni notte sora no mukou made |
| かすかに軋む 銀の歯車 | kasuka ni kishimu gin no haguruma |
| 響いてゆく 鈍色（にびいろ）の鼓動 | hibiite yuku nibiiro no kodou |
| ガラスの瞳に 映るこの空は | garasu no hitomi ni utsuru kono sora wa |
| どんな まやかしだろう | donna mayakashi darou |
| この月の下で もうめぐり逢うこともないけど | kono tsuki no shita de mou meguriau koto mo nai kedo |
| この空に向かって 歌い続けていよう | kono sora ni mukatte utai tsudzukete iyou |
| あなたと出逢った すみれの丘も | anata to deatta sumire no oka mo |
| 幾千の夜に 灰色の亡骸（なきがら） | iku sen no yoru ni haiiro no nakigara |

Written by an unknown artist, this version of the lyrics were used in the English version of Hatsune Miku -Project DIVA- F 2nd.
Alone on a grey hill, treading on dry grass
In the distant sky that sets my mind to wander
Flower petals in the breeze, and your gentle smile
Faint fragments of memory, faded into sepia tones
I'll play a forgotten song
Though my body may rust and decay
I'll still sing to the fading gravestone
The song you left behind
My body may be artificial
But my heart, I'll give to this song
Softly grinding silver gears
Echoing leaden heartbeats
The sky reflected in these glass eyes
Is seeing really believing?
After thousands of nights,
Even the hill of violets where we met
Has become a monochrome wasteland
My body may be artificial
But my heart, I'll give to this song
Beneath this moon
Though we shall never meet again
I'll keep singing to the sky
