GIVEN UP ------ Linkin Park
"Given Up" is a song by Linkin Park, the song was released as the fourth single from their third studio album Minutes to Midnight.
It is one of the heavier songs on the album. It notably features a eighteen second-long scream by Chester Bennington before the final chorus, as well as a steady guitar riff for the choruses of the song. The scream is split into two 9 second long screams when performed live allowing Chester to catch his breath, although he has completed the full scream in various live performances.
The video consists of live clips from the shows and has been edited together in a sharp, rugged manner which contains short cut scenes with many special effects mainly altering the coloring. Transitions between cut scenes are in a style of warn analog tape distortion giving the video an even more rugged, tough appearance.

WHAT I'VE DONE ------ Linkin Park
Chester Bennington himself described the track in a March 2007 interview with MTV:
Joe came up to Mike and me and asked us to take the whole idea of Minutes to Midnight and apply that to how the band has changed. So, in a way, it's us saying goodbye to how we used to be...The lyrics in the first verse are 'In this farewell, there's no blood, there's no alibi,' and right away, you'll notice that the band sounds different: The drums are much more raw, the guitars are more raw and the vocals aren't tripled. It's just us out there ...
In any case, even with that change of pace/style and that clear social/environmental message it's definitely a great song from this awesome band!
