Linkin Park did another great song. I also like the video for it; it's mostly animated drawings.

The first Linkin Park song I excually liked. The Rapper isn't involved and The singer isn't so bad in this song.

Wow, a lot of bad opinions on here, I thought the video was ok(But I don't know, I watch anime, so that's just me) But why are you dissin' on the song? Doesn't make sense to me.

added: 08/02/2004, 03:34 AM

stupidelbow

I don't like the video, simply because it's so good. I think the video draws peoples attention away from how powerful this song is. It's one of my new favourites.

This video is just a cheap pink floyd rip-off. As for the song, utter shit to me. I hate linkin Park. Every fucking song sounds the same. They have no variation whatsoever, and really need to do something different. All of these song are just annoying, there are nothing special about any of the videos, and thats why they made this animated peice of shit, that tries with no avail to look like portions of the wall. Horrible if you ask me. But thats my opinion

added: 09/09/2004, 03:33 PM

SquirellGirl

alright thats it i cant take it nemore. ppl if u dont like the band then fine. dont comment on them! thats wut i do cuz some bands i rly could say some things that u all are sayin but i spare ppl the comments! u all should read ur comments sometime! its terrible! ok im done now sry y'all.

added: 09/20/2004, 07:47 PM

Cratic

try to make a little more sense next time...but really, speak your mind when it comes to songs. As cobain said on a different song, "if everyone never said anything bad about songs, this site would be boring." People comment on songs to share their opinions about the song to other people. To let them know what the bands like, to let them know if they suck or not. i f you look at my comments, you would see that I usually say good things about bands, but I also share my opinions about bands that I dislike. And thats why we comment on bands that suck.

what a bunch of tools...jesus christ. Saint, you said it perfectly. "I like to listen this song when I feel kinda lost and stuff coz it reflects my emotions". you and EVERY other angst ridden american teenager. kudos to you, one of the many puppets of the "music" industry. and in the words of the Youhavebadtasteinmusic nazi, "Like a rollercoaster, linkin park is nothing more than a few cheap thrills appealing to no one over the height of 52 inches. appearing dangerous, yet completely safe."

You should be feeling stupid. Your country is horrible and Bush sucks cock. And I don't think this because Eminem or any other artist says this but because I have my own opinion. And Bush really is a stupid monkey-like dumbfuck. The Americans who voted for him are even dumber. People come on, if you look in to this guys eyes you'll see he really is dumb. His policies are stupid aswell and a lot of Americans are nationalist just like the Germans were in the 1930's. they love their country so much and are all willing to die for it's believes. I saw Bush reading a letter he recieved from a little girl once and It said that she was willing to die for Her country if and she wanted to go to Irac and fight for her precious country. I think that just sick man. All those fundamental believe people have are wrong. In Iran it's the fundamental Islam what's wrong and In America it's the Fundamental Hollewood Freedom feeling that's wrong. Stop being like this you Sick Bastards!

ok, i'm hurt now. as i said, this country isn't a Utopia, i know that. but it's my home. it's my home and i love it. i will admit, i'm not a bush supporter. i didn't support any of the candidates this year. but that DOES NOT mean that i don't like my country. will all of you please stop bashing my country? it really hurts to have people say that. how would you like it if i said some of those things to you about your countries? you wouldn't be feeling so great. you wouldn't admit it, but it's true. please, stop bashing down this country. :'(

What's the big deal Cobain? Would you stop bashing doing the same thing Eazy bone's doing, which is bashing our country? Who cares about who the f*ck is the president anyway? Election day is over and we ALL know that Bush is the president again. So what if he's president again? Who the f*ck cares anyway? This country is still a good country. Just because he's elected again doesn't mean that our country is f*cked up. Jesus Christ...you can bash Bush, but you CAN'T BASH AMERICA!!! It pisses me off...a lot. >:|

I Still hold mine opinions on America. Sure a lot of Americans are good people but The country and it's believes are going to far for me. And I Fucking HATE Nationalism. I'm not going to say Netherlands Rule, Netherlands rule all the time just because I live here. And I don't love my country. I think it's a nice country to live in becuase We have lot's of freedom (Probably way more then in the USA). But Nationalism is a bad thing. My comment was really focused on Bush. But more on Your Country. Let it go. America isn't that great. Like 60% of the World hate Americans and you people are have gone to far in your thurst for power all around the globe. Go solve your own problems in your country first. And Stay away from the rets of the world!

as i keep saying america isn't Utopia. i know that. but it is my home. it is where i have the freedom to say these things about my country. i have the freedom to write what i'm writing here. america is an awesome country, even with all of our faults. every country has faults, ok? not just america. please stop bashing me and my country. you're being disrespectful to every american. you're being disrespectful to me and Big D and any other american making comments on your stupid remarks. so please, stop. it really hurts me. especially what that asshole american-hater said. y'all just need to shut up.

froggy83178

have you ever been to america? what makes our country so bad? i can understand not likeing bush, who really does? but i'm not sitting here saying canada sucks and i hate canadiens. i have never been there and i don't know anything about your country. if i had and didn't like it, i wouldn't be here bashing your country. i would show a little respect, just like we deserve. i know this may not be the best place, i don't know, this is the only place i know. its home and i love it. all i ask is stop bashing us. if your going to state a nagative opinion, at least do it respectly. your just being prejudice and thats just not right.

Bitches, bitches, bitches. Sterotypes are fucking gay. You think all americans are "we want to bomb your ass mother fucker" No, you're wrong. And saying America's a joke. I mean come on the only thing your country is good for is beer, Rush, and... thats about it. So take your american hating opinions and shove them wayyyy up into your assholes.

added: 12/01/2004, 09:25 PM

Jochem

I'm not stereotyping! I said a lot of Americans are nationalist. And they go too far. I know it's a beautiful country and all. But a lot of people who live there are way too Proud about their country. I also live in a country with a lot of freedom but I'm saying OMG The Netherlands rule so bad, all the time. And when we see our Flag nobody gives a fuck. Your too proud and that what's wrong with American. For the rest Americans are ok. Except for Bush and Bob Saget of course.
I'm not really sure if you were talking to me or murder-americans but Rush?? Rush isn't from my country. We do have loads of beer, but Rush?

added: 12/02/2004, 06:33 AM

froggy83178

actually, no your not sterotyping. i understand where your coming from. alot of americans are that way, but alot isn't. thank you for not being an asshole anout it like muder_americans.

sorry, its a bit old, but in reply to Cobains comment about nationalism. I fucking LOVE my country (Wales) and theres nothing that pisses me off more than English twats who think all Welsh do is shag sheep (stereotype, not true). I think its absoloutly fine for a person to love their country, and if they dont, then get out of the country, whats the point in living in a country you hate?

added: 12/02/2004, 09:59 AM

Jochem

I don't Hate my country but I don't love it. I spoke about it today and it appears to be a fact the Dutch are the least nationalist people on the planet. Maybe that the reason I hate American Pride so much. I dislike every kind of Pride for their country but I guess it's ok. With Americans it's just so excessive, And loads of movies and are from hollewood and their always way too excessive, maybe I have a wrong picture of your country, maybe not
