Background
“Hey, it's DECO*27. Thank you all so much for making this song get to where it is today.”
—Author's comment
"Ghost Rule" is an original song by DECO*27. It is one of his first songs after a brief hiatus in making music (at least in the VOCALOID field).
One interpretation of the song is that Miku is a compulsive liar, whose life has been ruined by her constant contradictions and lies. It addresses her remorse for her own actions, though believing she cannot go back anymore.
This song became an instant hit on Nico Nico, entering the Hall of Fame within the week of its publication. It later entered the Hall of Legend and exceeded over 10 million YouTube views. It also received lots of Vocaloid, Utau, and Utaite covers. Hence, this is DECO*27's most notable song, and one of Miku's most notable songs.
Alongside with Six Trillion Years and Overnight Story and THE END OF HATSUNE MIKU (LONG VERSION), Ghost Rule is currently the closest song towards entering the Hall of Myths.
This song is featured in the album GHOST. It's also featured in the game Hatsune Miku -Project DIVA- Arcade Future Tone.
