I play this song in my car for my 3 year old daughter on road trips. Puts her right to sleep every time. But 10 years ago this song served a different purpose. A darker one, one that helped me get through that time in my life. A year later I met my future wife and things haven't been the same since. Now I have a family and we listen to LP during all our roads trips and it's not going to stop. Thanks Chester for helping me through my dark times and I wish I could have helped you through yours. I hope you found peace. Update: I recently separated from my wife back in December of 2020. It is June of 2021 now. We've both moved on and I have found someone else that I love very much. My ex wife and I have decided to remain friends and coparent our daughter. This song has yet again helped me through another dark chapter in my life and will continue to. My life has changed and I'm happy for it and so is my ex wife. Sometimes life doesn't work out the way you think it will and everything happens for a reason. I hope this change is for the better. I feel like it is. Stay positive everyone and always keep your happiness priority #1!
This is the same for me and my family. Much love and Chester will always be a part of our lives. There isn't a day that goes by where I don't think of him and my mum

This song is about the Hurricane Katrina after the band went to New Orleans. The song is their response to what they saw and how they felt the government (under Pres. George Bush) responded to the hurricane.
People talk about songs like Numb, Crawling, etc. But songs like this along with Drawbar, No Roads Left, and many others, are truly amazing and showed their creative depth. I think people will look back at certain songs like this one and realize that this band was misunderstood when they initially existed. Time will only tell.
Bryton Cherrier are you fucking serious? one last light was a fucking pop album dude. linkin park is hard rock maybe even metal if you wanna go there, I dont mind occasional songs that take it easy like this. It let's me know linkin park is more than all heavy stuff, but oll took it too far. they went downhill, admit it.
Despite everything, Chester's voice is comforting to me. It feels like a hug, a whisper telling me everything will be OK. When I hear his voice, I don't cry- I smile. That's what he would have wanted. Chester will never record another song, but we still have these songs he sang, and he will live on through his music.
i love this fandom. everyone is so supportive of everyone. people express feelings of sadness and get empathy from people who've had similar experiences. linkin park has shown me that nobody is alone in their thoughts. you will always have someone. heck, come to the comment section.
One of the best songs on the planet. And no, I'm not exagerrating. Everything from the melody, lyrics to powerful vocals, harmony, instruments. It's such a perfect song with literally no flaws.
I fully agree, it's also my all-time most favorite LP song. This track meant so much to me when it was released. I know it was for the victims of Hurricane Katrina, and I was 7 at that time (and continents away from the tragedy), but this song ultimately helped me decide with a moral dilemma I was put on to, as I've noticed all the bullying I went through at that time and didn't know how to react. Should I be the more honest and secretly kind type of person? Or should I be more of a person who knows how to fit themselves with others depending on the situation? Even I didn't believe I was put in that kind of dilemma at that age. But I'm glad this song helped me with it.
Sometimes I get this urge to listen to nothing but Linkin Park, if anything else comes on, I will skip immediately to another Linkin Park song. I guess I can't be the only one.
Pushing me away , numb , the little things give you away , the messenger , powerless and a line in the sand. They really do know how to end an album ❤️
They also know how to start an album (excluding The Hunting Party). Papercut, Foreword/Don't Stay/Somewhere I Belong/Lying From You, Wake/Given Up/Leave Out All The Rest, The Requiem/The Radiance/Burning In The Skies, and Lost In The Echo/In My Remains/Burn It Down.
As a Katrina survivor, this song still makes me cry. I guess they played it at a fundraiser event for Hurricane Katrina. I didn't hear it till MTM, and it broke me. Its hauntingly beautiful to me, idk how else to explain it. And to this day, it's still my favorite LP song. 💚💚💚
I was 15 when Katrina happened. My family and I decided to not celebrate Christmas that year and go volunteer in NO instead . We were rejected by every single organization we called since my brother and I were underage. We still didn’t celebrate Christmas that year and decided to just take the money we were going to spend and donate it since it’s all we could do. To this day when we talk about that year my mom still gets teary eyed because she feels guilty for not helping more. I’m not saying all this to look good but just wanted you to know there were people out there trying to help in whatever way they could……. The way our country handled that situation as a whole was pathetic though
wow its like 2 am here and I'm laying in my bed here in darkness while listening to this- and now I read this comment- couldn't agree more- I love this song
When I heard what happen to Chester Bennington. Remember many years ago, I joined a Linkin Park live show, and the entire stadium sang out loud this song. Sometimes all you need was be able to hear it once again. Farewell Chester.
I never even noticed that this song is exactly split into two halves, with one containing the intro, verses and choruses, while the second contains the breakdown, the guitar solo and the bridge/outro. I don't even have to say this song is an absolute masterpiece and possibly the best Linkin Park song of them all.
This is by far, their most underrated song of all time. People know Linkin Park from Numb, In The End, or Crawling, but they never have even listened to this masterpiece.
In an interveiw Chester states how he thinks the guitar solo is one of the most beautiful pieces they has recorded. Listening to it again made me realize how right he was.
Hey Chester, it's January of 2024 and were still here. I've been giving the Minutes to Midnight album another listen recently. I wish I still had my tour shirt from 2007, but I guess it wouldn't fit now anyways lol. Anyways, this album kept me going in my 8th grade year. I was quite the troubled kid. Bullied in school, home life issues, etc. I had a little 512Mb MP3 player that couldn't fit much more than a album on it. This was the album I kept on there. I listened to this album every day, front to back. I remember drawing the LP symbol on everything back then lol. Anyways I'm 30 now, and life is better, mostly. Thank you, and the rest of the band for making music that both spoke to me as a young edgy teen, and as an adult
Oh they tried to help him but most people can only fight off depression for so long. That's the true darkness of it. No matter how happy and fulfilled they seem, it never goes away
Honzi1k not many people can handle the things that happened to them in the past all we need to do is to focus on the present and future and let go of the past and focus on the people and family we have and love them forever like we love Chester and never let go
Linkin Park was and still is such a big part of my life. Losing Chester was like losing a family member. I still get so sad thinking about it. This band has gotten me through so stuff in my life and they are all I listen too. I’m forever grateful of the music the group has and will continue to put out. I will show both of my kids this art and hopefully it gets passed down to my grandkids and so on and so on.
Linkin Park seriously was on another level of sonic ability.... the slightest little detail with a great pair of headphones is crazy. especially at 3:10 how that distortion sound matches chester's pitch and then literally travels slowly around your brain... gave me chills and euphoria focusing on it
I'm drunk and it's 8 am Finland time as I'm typing this, but I haven't listened to Linkin Park for many years. I came here starting from In Between and how much the song reflects my thoughts to my current situtation with my family. The more and more I listen to this album I realise how genuine this band is with it's lyrics. So honest to the point I'm teary in my eyes and I remember that I, too am a human just like each and every one of you. I love you all!
Water grey Through the windows, up the stairs Chilling rain Like an ocean everywhere [Chorus] Don't want to reach for me do you I mean nothing to you The little things give you away And now there will be no mistaking The levees are breaking All you've ever wanted Was someone to truly look up to you And six feet under water I Do [End Chorus] Hope decays Generations disappear Washed away As a nation simply stares [Chorus] Don't want to reach for me do you I mean nothing to you The little things give you away But now there will be no mistaking The levees are breaking All you've ever wanted Was someone to truly look up to you And six feet under water I Do All you've ever wanted Was someone to truly look up to you And six feet under ground now I Now I do [End Chorus] [Brad's Guitar Solo] Little things give you away Little things give you away Little things give you away Little things give you away All you've ever wanted (Little things give you away) Was someone to truly look up to you (Little things give you away) All you've ever wanted (Little things give you away) Was someone to truly look up to you (Little things give you away) All you've ever wanted (Little things give you away) Was someone to truly look up to you (Little things give you away) All you've ever wanted (Little things give you away) Was someone to truly look up to you (Little things give you away) All you've ever wanted (Little things give you away) Was someone to truly look up to you (Little things give you away) All you've ever wanted (Little things give you away) Was someone to truly look up to you (Little things give you away)
"All you've ever wanted was someone to truly look up to you. And six feet, underwater, I do" I miss you Chester. I promise you I'll tell my children and everyone of the band's music, and the impact it had on my life. Rock on in peace, my friend.
Nobody will read this but anyways.. Everytime I feel bad or something dumb happens I just lay in the dark and listen to this album. This song, is the perfect ending for the session. This is one of the hidden gems of LP, all the people just know LP from Numb, Crawling etc. and don't know this soft but emotional songs. I can't describe that feeling, but everytime I am hearing this I feel better, as would a load fall from me. This is probably my favorite song of all time and saved me many times from fucking kill myself. Thank you for reading.
Anyone who is fan of M U S I C in general knows that this is damn near perfect. Even if you’re not an LP fan... the melodies, harmonies, instrumentation, vocal layering etc. it’s legit perfection. A song that still gives me chills to this day.
It's been my favorite since I first heard it. When I was little my mother played this CD in the car alot, so I know I fell asleep to this on more than one occasion.
Words cannot describe how big of an impact the loss of Chester has had on me to the point that don't know why I'm typing this but he was such an incredibly talented singer and artist and he inspired myself and, i know many others and i feel so deeply lost in this abyss of artists merely dropping off the planet and it's such a shame to see them go without fully realise what a difference and inspiration they have been to ALL their fans. Chester, you were a truly incredible singer who, even God himself could not definitively say your voice had any boundaries. Your music will always live on, in my headphones especially. To Mike and all the band, I'm unbelievably sorry for your loss and i hope to see you guys live at some point in life, my only regret is that the band will not be whole. With love and absolute admiration, An Irish fan
Roshan Naylor losing Chester to me was like losing a family member you know ? He was such a big inspiration to me and his music just helped me through the dark times,he was a legend Rip Chester
I miss him everyday, he was the voice for everyone. I miss you Chester, even though I never had a chance to meet you, I just wish I could take your place, you didn’t deserve to die, but I truly understand why you did it, and I can’t say I wouldn’t do the same. Love you brother. Thank you for everything, I hope I get the chance to meet you in another life it exists.
LP's tribute to the people lost in Hurricane Katrina. To understand this song, it's necessary to understand the devastation caused by that hurricane, and the levees that broke and flooded the poorer neighborhoods. That it's an allegory for a personal story is to better understand its meaning. This is a masterful arrangement.
When my step mother was my tormentor and her children were worse, this album worked wonders on helping me come to grips with my feelings. It wasn't my fault they hated my existence. Chester had a song for every emotion and question all those years ago and he's still answering them today. The world lost a great artist in Chester. Rest in Peace, brother. Thank you for being my voice when I didn't have one.
Fk them bully ass bitches they hated their existence so just took it out on you!!! I’m sure the people you love and trust really wonder how those fksticks got through life and know who the REAL one really IS!!! YOU KNOW and most know their Fake ass bitches!!!
So is A Thousand Suns. Don't get me wrong, this album is also great; it's my 2nd favorite LP album behind A Thousand Suns and in front of Living Things.
Just give another try to A Thousand Suns. It's the most innovative album. It's the Album not just a compilation of tracks. To realize it's epicness you have to hear it from the beginning without skipping any tracks, without any pauses till the end. It's a concept album about Nuclear war & apocalypse. It contains ambient speeches & snippets to strengthen that feeling( even though title 'A Thousand Suns' give shivers). Each track is unique, ending of most tracks is the beginning to next ones, with each track a kind of event is narrated. Whole album flows like this, it's a Prog album. The album is like a SINGLE MEGA TRACK of 48 minutes. Also Living Things has best production, there's not even a single bad track on Living Things. Roads Unraveled, I'll be gone, IN my remains, Powerless etc are the best rest are good. Hunting Party is the only weak album with 2-3 good tracks rest all are repetitive, forced I would give first five albums 5/5 and hunting party 2.5/5.
Today has been impossibly hard. I went to a funeral yesterday and my brother is having problems eating and it's getting bad. Plus, my own anxieties keep spilling over the surface and I can't get a grip on myself. It's just been really hard the past couple of days. I have tried everything to help. Things just seem to get worse. I still have hope and I really hope all of this will pass over one day. LP gives me just a little bit of hope. I would be dead without them. I don't even know why I'm writing this in a YT comment section I guess I just felt like saying it. But to anyone else who feels like this you aren't alone and I'm here for you.
"It is an underrated song..." So what?! It gives me goosebumps every time and I looove it! Who cares if other peoples don't know it?! We love it. Mike, Chester, Joe, Rob, Brad and Dave did this to their fans. LP forever!
This song has become a relatable song once again. My condolences to everyone that was involved or had family involved in the two tragic hurricanes Helene and Milton 💔💔💔💔
@@xlide31 Coming back a year later. I agree with you, I had a hipster mindset for most of my life, I wouldn't say it's entirely gone but yeah I try to minimize it now because that's the kind of trait that ruins the fun in conversations about entertainment with other people.
@@Chico50445 The tendency to compare everything in our lives is getting more and more prevelant nowadays. Rare our people who have the sense and logic to understand that something are incomparable and like xlide31 said, “different”.
ATS has the best lyrics, but MTM is second! But I love ATS so much, not just bc of the awesome sound, but bc of the amazing lyrics. Most of them speak for myself.
From MTM, I like the lyrics from Hands Held High, LOATR, SOTD, TLTGYA, WID... From ATS, I like the lyrics from WFTE, Iridescent, BITS, Robot Boy, WTCFM, The Messenger...
Phenomenal doesn’t even begin to describe it. I can’t even find a word to describe it. It’s just beyond words, I could listen to it on repeat and never get sick of it. I miss Chester. 💜💜💜💜💜💜
this song is a masterpiece. there's something hauntingly beautiful about it and no other song makes me feel the way this one does. I'm glad i'm feeling strong enough to listen to Linkin Park again , I've missed it
According to myself, The Little Things Give You Away is the best song ever by Linkin Park, as MTM is their best album. Throught all these years, there have been many and many and many times when I thought and said I would have attended their next live in Italy. Now I know that that day will never come. The first time I heard Chester's voice I was ten or eleven, now I'm 21. His death is being hard to realize and it will surely hurt for a long time already. But what a great honor to have grown up whit him. I'll always be thankful to LP, for have guided me to listen good music and love Art, and to live my life trying to tell something more to the people, as next as far they are to us. I would have so more to write, but I guess this has been enough. Thank You So Much Chester, my dear major brother. Keep on Rocking in the free world, always.
Wow, I haven't heard this music in years yet it's made me tear up more than any other time I've listened to it. I can't believe Chester is gone. This band was my everything back in the day, it really hurts to know that he took his own life. It feels like a big chunk of me has been ripped away. I'm sorry it had to be this way. Rest in Peace you great man.
out of all the Linkin Park songs that do it for me this is the one. Sad to hear the lead singer took his own life such beauty and variety in his voice. May you find peace in the after Mr. Bennington.
3:12 magic beginds. when I was kid : Hybrid Theory is the best. when I was teenager : not bad for Meteora now I'm turning to 33 yo : Minutes to midnight is the masterpiece from LP. We miss you a lot CB ❤️🤘 24/07/2021, Bali, Indonesia.
Absolutely. 3:52 to the end is perfect. But I just wish Chester didn't feel entitled to write a song about Hurricane Katrina when that wasn't his struggle to appropriate. Still a great musical work though in general
this'll be the lifelong song I'll listen tbh, I'll never forget my hero because of this song. It gave me a huge moral dilemma back when this was released so you can say that this song decided how my personality goes right now.
The band helped sooooo many people. Myself included in my darkest moments still to this day. I have good days and very dark ones. Their music is a source of healing for me. Every facet of all their combined talents put me at peace. I only wish we could have been that for Chester. When you get pulled into that black hole and nothing is there to pull you back the light goes out. I want people to reach out. We are here, we are ready to listen.
I play this song in my car for my 3 year old daughter on road trips. Puts her right to sleep every time. But 10 years ago this song served a different purpose.

I hope you found peace.

My ex wife and I have decided to remain friends and coparent our daughter. This song has yet again helped me through another dark chapter in my life and will continue to.

This is the same for me and my family. Much love and Chester will always be a part of our lives. There isn't a day that goes by where I don't think of him and my mum
That is beautiful man
Wonderfull words, that you found !!!
RESPEKT and all good wishes for you and your family !!!
Thats beautiful, i hope one day when im older my children get to hear his voice
that's really sweet. Wish you all good.
The second half of this song is some of their best work. The build up, the drums, the intense vocals and harmonies, pure magic.
Still furiously air drumming🌟 EPIC 🤷WY NOT ON hybrid Theory New Mixmaxz No Fukn Clue🤔
Your a fan of that crescendo too huh
@@undeadgaming7297 you just brought me back to listen to it again, thank you.
@@noumanintown it's one of my top 3 from lp
From the vocals to the subtle beat almost like rain and the crescendo as the song processes and the tempo builds is what makes this so perfect
I encourage anyone who loves this album to look at how it was made. It adds a beautiful perspective into each song.
Water gray
Through the windows
Up the stairs
Chilling rain
Like an ocean
Everywhere
Don't want to reach for me, do you?
I mean nothing to you
The little things give you away
And now there will be no mistaking
The levees are breaking
All you've ever wanted
Was someone to truly look up to you
And six feet under water, I do
Hope decays
Generations disappear
Washed away
As a nation
Simply stares
Don't want to reach for me, do you?
I mean nothing to you
The little things give you away
But now there will be no mistaking
The levees are breaking
All you've ever wanted
Was someone to truly look up to you
And six feet underwater, I do
All you've ever wanted
Was someone to truly look up to you
And six feet underground now I
Now I do
Little things give you away

@@reinetteyoung8367 thank you for commenting, I never knew.
@@reinetteyoung8367 wow thanks for ruining this song for me.
This is Linkin Park's most well hidden gem
I would also say Qwerty or Session, they just aren't able to do a bad song
I remember back in 2008 I presented this song in my English class for a project and everyone thought I was a f*cking weirdo
In my opinion it’s What We Don’t Know thats the hidden gem
@@SwingJake because most people are into mainstream bullshit! they're the fkn weirdos for not appreciating real talent.
@@SwingJake I'm assuming this was in middle school? Kids are stupid. Anything that isn't mainstream is considered "weird' by them.
People talk about songs like Numb, Crawling, etc. But songs like this along with Drawbar, No Roads Left, and many others, are truly amazing and showed their creative depth.
I think people will look back at certain songs like this one and realize that this band was misunderstood when they initially existed. Time will only tell.
A lot of ppl talk like HT and Meteora were the only good albums from LP when all of them are good and have masterpieces like this.
this song is incredibly sad now
Bryton Cherrier 👍👍
like Elvis or Michael Jackson Eminem ,Linkin Park is legend and won't be forgotten ever
Bryton Cherrier are you fucking serious? one last light was a fucking pop album dude. linkin park is hard rock maybe even metal if you wanna go there, I dont mind occasional songs that take it easy like this.

Definitely one of their most underrated songs
this comment is on every song of theirs... we need to decide already lol
Awfully underrated but I'm here to correct it
But also one of the best...
JamesLinton17 it is
I agree
One of the most underrated LP songs; no screaming at all yet the anger/disdain is still unmistakable in the vocals.
Rob truly doesn’t get enough recognition, the drums in this song are phenomenal
Dave, Brad, and Joe also.. All 4 of them.. And actually Mike also (his solo)
@@iyeriyer548 agreed
Lmao
He gets payed good and they give him the spot light sometimes in live concerts so I think he does get some love from his band and fans
This song is probably Rob's and Chester's favourite LP song.
i love this fandom. everyone is so supportive of everyone. people express feelings of sadness and get empathy from people who've had similar experiences. linkin park has shown me that nobody is alone in their thoughts. you will always have someone. heck, come to the comment section.

I agree
I'm numb fan, but i discover this... wow
true ❤
Just be glad that you all have a great taste of music. And you are also the lucky ones because not everyone could enjoy this.
Sometimes I get this urge to listen to nothing but Linkin Park, if anything else comes on, I will skip immediately to another Linkin Park song. I guess I can't be the only one.
You aren't the only one.
Yep, same here.
there are plenty of other amazing bands, not just LP
See you on the other side of this binge.
I got you, buddy.
Pushing me away , numb , the little things give you away , the messenger , powerless and a line in the sand. They really do know how to end an album ❤️
True
Although I despise The Hunting Party, I do like Until It's Gone, Final Masquerade, and A Line In The Sand.
They also know how to start an album (excluding The Hunting Party). Papercut, Foreword/Don't Stay/Somewhere I Belong/Lying From You, Wake/Given Up/Leave Out All The Rest, The Requiem/The Radiance/Burning In The Skies, and Lost In The Echo/In My Remains/Burn It Down.
Why do you despise THP? The best album since Meteora. don't get why everybody despise that album, it's pure rock album
Keys To The Kingdom was an excellent opener. The Hunting Party is probably my favorite of all their records honestly.
As a Katrina survivor, this song still makes me cry. I guess they played it at a fundraiser event for Hurricane Katrina. I didn't hear it till MTM, and it broke me. Its hauntingly beautiful to me, idk how else to explain it. And to this day, it's still my favorite LP song. 💚💚💚

Well, for me just emptiness and sadness...
That's the feeling
2 things
1. Rob is 🐐ed for that drum part
2. Those vocalizations by Chester at the end are so hard to do flawlessly…man had a voice for sure
When I heard what happen to Chester Bennington. Remember many years ago, I joined a Linkin Park live show, and the entire stadium sang out loud this song. Sometimes all you need was be able to hear it once again. Farewell Chester.
This was one of my most favourite song when I was around 8-9. I'm now 18 and crying.. Thank you Chester
Personally I think Chester's voice sounds the most amazing in this song.
one thing the best at Chester's voices is when he scream loud and highly and then he break to a smooth voices. that was very beautiful and exciting.
:(
😥😥😥
canucky76 Chester's voice sounds great in any songs. He is one of those singers who has the most beautiful voice and can sing any song effortlessly...
Angelic ending ❤
If theres one thing Mike and Chester truly mastered through their time together, it was making their voices work in perfect harmony with eachother.
"I do."

-One More Light
Three letters and I almost cry
@@pablodm9 Yeah, I was crying. 🙁
crazy how their meanings differ in respect to their songs
I knowwww
Omg I never thought of that
You're not alone, just because we couldn't be there for Chester doesn't mean we cant be there for one another

👏👏
Such a heart touching and powerful comment ❤️
I never even noticed that this song is exactly split into two halves, with one containing the intro, verses and choruses, while the second contains the breakdown, the guitar solo and the bridge/outro.
I don't even have to say this song is an absolute masterpiece and possibly the best Linkin Park song of them all.
This is by far, their most underrated song of all time. People know Linkin Park from Numb, In The End, or Crawling, but they never have even listened to this masterpiece.
The Hybrid Theory EP songs and LP unreleased songs are even more underrated.
It's unbelievable how LP has Always been too underrated.
I do
This would have to be my favourite.
slow song from minutes from midnight and one more light is underrated. I really like them all.
In an interveiw Chester states how he thinks the guitar solo is one of the most beautiful pieces they has recorded. Listening to it again made me realize how right he was.
Hey Chester, it's January of 2024 and were still here. I've been giving the Minutes to Midnight album another listen recently. I wish I still had my tour shirt from 2007, but I guess it wouldn't fit now anyways lol. Anyways, this album kept me going in my 8th grade year. I was quite the troubled kid. Bullied in school, home life issues, etc. I had a little 512Mb MP3 player that couldn't fit much more than a album on it. This was the album I kept on there. I listened to this album every day, front to back. I remember drawing the LP symbol on everything back then lol. Anyways I'm 30 now, and life is better, mostly. Thank you, and the rest of the band for making music that both spoke to me as a young edgy teen, and as an adult
LP really has been such a saving grace for so many of us since our youth. glad to see you're doing better, stranger
Never have I been hit by a celebrity death this much before. I'm sorry that nobody was able to help Chester before it was too late.
Oh they tried to help him but most people can only fight off depression for so long. That's the true darkness of it. No matter how happy and fulfilled they seem, it never goes away
Honzi1k not many people can handle the things that happened to them in the past all we need to do is to focus on the present and future and let go of the past and focus on the people and family we have and love them forever like we love Chester and never let go
I was so sad I couldnt make it to their final tour after he passed.
Same it still hurts
Linkin Park was and still is such a big part of my life. Losing Chester was like losing a family member. I still get so sad thinking about it. This band has gotten me through so stuff in my life and they are all I listen too. I’m forever grateful of the music the group has and will continue to put out. I will show both of my kids this art and hopefully it gets passed down to my grandkids and so on and so on.
Linkin Park seriously was on another level of sonic ability.... the slightest little detail with a great pair of headphones is crazy. especially at 3:10 how that distortion sound matches chester's pitch and then literally travels slowly around your brain... gave me chills and euphoria focusing on it
Duuude... yessss
That's because Mike is such a great producer. He produced most if not all of LP's albums I think.
I'm drunk and it's 8 am Finland time as I'm typing this, but I haven't listened to Linkin Park for many years. I came here starting from In Between and how much the song reflects my thoughts to my current situtation with my family. The more and more I listen to this album I realise how genuine this band is with it's lyrics. So honest to the point I'm teary in my eyes and I remember that I, too am a human just like each and every one of you. I love you all!
@Logic I have that picture you have for your profile!
@Logic it's just that annoying need to state when a probable coincidence actually happened.
Hey, 2020, argentina. Same, drunk and very sensitive. Cheers my dear.
take care of you, hope you stay healty live a good life.
we love you too , i hope you're okay now !!
Water grey
Through the windows, up the stairs
Chilling rain
Like an ocean everywhere
[Chorus]
Don't want to reach for me do you
I mean nothing to you
The little things give you away
And now there will be no mistaking
The levees are breaking
All you've ever wanted
Was someone to truly look up to you
And six feet under water
I
Do
[End Chorus]
Hope decays
Generations disappear
Washed away
As a nation simply stares
[Chorus]
Don't want to reach for me do you
I mean nothing to you
The little things give you away
But now there will be no mistaking
The levees are breaking
All you've ever wanted
Was someone to truly look up to you
And six feet under water
I
Do
All you've ever wanted
Was someone to truly look up to you
And six feet under ground now
I
Now I do

The part that Chester sings "Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh" is like Chester trying to brought me in heaven
i will go there soon...and i hope i meet him and all of the btf ppl there :( :)
Dont kill urself bro, it isnt proven that heaven existst!
@@matzesorg3874 What happened?
justme 313 yo dude r u alive & well.
Yeah I am... barely. I will keep trying to find me and my own reason to be alive...thanks for your concerns bro
the guitar solo is so beautiful omg. The last 3 minutes of this song are absolutely classic
That voice though. He hits them notes so beautifully. Chester was on a level on his own.... let his light shine for all of you in your darkness🙏🏼
It's one of those songs that makes you thank the Lord for giving you ears.
And I think it's my favorite Linkin Park song of all time.
That guitar solo OMG
It takes you out of this world
One of the best ever.
Surely Brad's best
One of my all time favorite
YES!!!
"All you've ever wanted was someone to truly look up to you. And six feet, underwater, I do" I miss you Chester. I promise you I'll tell my children and everyone of the band's music, and the impact it had on my life. Rock on in peace, my friend.
Nobody will read this but anyways..
Everytime I feel bad or something dumb happens I just lay in the dark and listen to this album. This song, is the perfect ending for the session.
This is one of the hidden gems of LP, all the people just know LP from Numb, Crawling etc. and don't know this soft but emotional songs.
I can't describe that feeling, but everytime I am hearing this I feel better, as would a load fall from me.
This is probably my favorite song of all time and saved me many times from fucking kill myself.
Thank you for reading.
Wow
your life is important. keep your head up :) there will always be more better days
The power of music, right? Stay strong!
Cherish your life my friend.
Watch there making of this album. Can't describe it in words
Anyone who is fan of M U S I C in general knows that this is damn near perfect. Even if you’re not an LP fan... the melodies, harmonies, instrumentation, vocal layering etc. it’s legit perfection. A song that still gives me chills to this day.
Chills is right...goose bumps every time.
You're a true fan of Linkin Park if you know this is one of their greatest songs
This one it's the more underrated song of LP, sure of that
Nothing but facts
Never fails to give me goosebumps...
It's been my favorite since I first heard it. When I was little my mother played this CD in the car alot, so I know I fell asleep to this on more than one occasion.
But I’ve you heard of chesters other bands?
The drumming is ridiculously technical and delicate. So well done.
Rob at his best.
@@chxzzychxzz7574el mejor momento de Rob fue en The Hunting party, su batería allí era una locura
Words cannot describe how big of an impact the loss of Chester has had on me to the point that don't know why I'm typing this but he was such an incredibly talented singer and artist and he inspired myself and, i know many others and i feel so deeply lost in this abyss of artists merely dropping off the planet and it's such a shame to see them go without fully realise what a difference and inspiration they have been to ALL their fans. Chester, you were a truly incredible singer who, even God himself could not definitively say your voice had any boundaries. Your music will always live on, in my headphones especially. To Mike and all the band, I'm unbelievably sorry for your loss and i hope to see you guys live at some point in life, my only regret is that the band will not be whole.
With love and absolute admiration,
An Irish fan
Roshan Naylor losing Chester to me was like losing a family member you know ? He was such a big inspiration to me and his music just helped me through the dark times,he was a legend
Rip Chester
Same here.
Bruv why is this so long
The best part of this song is when you hear it on headphones...you can hear Mike singing in your left ear and Chester in your right...the end is epic
Ayush Ranjan no actually both left and right were Mike's voice. Chester's voice was in between like (oh-oh-oh)
It's actually Mike on the left side, Phoenix on the right and chester doing the (oh oh oh) in the middle.
I forgot this song did that and immediately grabbed my headphones... my ears are so happy.
Both are mike.. Phoenix sings only in lives
Coincidentally, I was listening to that exact part the moment I got to reading your comment.
Chester’s soaring ‘oooh’ in the end...chills.
(If you are using earphones/headphones) From 5:10 onwards you can hear Mike's voice from the left speaker and Chester's voice from the right speaker.
Actually its Dave and Mike singing side by side where as Chester is singing the melody in the background.
Never noticed that before....sounds awesome.....love the song
@@arsanuj it's Dave!!? Wow I knew it was somebody else but thought it would be Brad. Thank you for saying.
Yes I have noticed that before
Watch there making of this album. Can't describe it in words.
Fun Fact: This is Pheonix's favorite song
Woah! I didn't know that
He's also in back vocals here. You can hear him singing line "Little things give you away" with Mike in the end of the song.
I like it but why is it 6 minutes long.

Essie Aesthetic he said under water. This song was written for Katrina victims
Essie Aesthetic Beautifully put doll
Clorox The second time around he says underwater, then underground
Joey Sandoval oh okay thanks
This and In Pieces are the most overlooked LP tunes. The Album doesn‘t end with What I‘ve Done / No more Sorrow.
For the past 3 days, these 2 songs are the only songs I am listening to.
LP's tribute to the people lost in Hurricane Katrina. To understand this song, it's necessary to understand the devastation caused by that hurricane, and the levees that broke and flooded the poorer neighborhoods. That it's an allegory for a personal story is to better understand its meaning. This is a masterful arrangement.
God comment. Meaning is everything
T hey helped rebuild new orleans. Donated some proceeds of this album to the katrina effort
The melody, the lyrics, the rythm, Chester's contribution, Rob's solo, Brad's contribution...well, LEGENDARY SONG.
The 21st century needed this song.
When my step mother was my tormentor and her children were worse, this album worked wonders on helping me come to grips with my feelings. It wasn't my fault they hated my existence. Chester had a song for every emotion and question all those years ago and he's still answering them today.
The world lost a great artist in Chester. Rest in Peace, brother. Thank you for being my voice when I didn't have one.
Fk them bully ass bitches they hated their existence so just took it out on you!!! I’m sure the people you love and trust really wonder how those fksticks got through life and know who the REAL one really IS!!! YOU KNOW and most know their Fake ass bitches!!!
Same to me but real mom😭
Honor, respect, truth.
That's what you deserved, and that's what you have.
This.
This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. The meaning behind the song makes it that much more heart wrenching.
this entire album is amazing, especially the lyrics to most of the songs. I think its extremely underrated
So is A Thousand Suns. Don't get me wrong, this album is also great; it's my 2nd favorite LP album behind A Thousand Suns and in front of Living Things.
Just give another try to A Thousand Suns. It's the most innovative album. It's the Album not just a compilation of tracks. To realize it's epicness you have to hear it from the beginning without skipping any tracks, without any pauses till the end. It's a concept album about Nuclear war & apocalypse. It contains ambient speeches & snippets to strengthen that feeling( even though title 'A Thousand Suns' give shivers). Each track is unique, ending of most tracks is the beginning to next ones, with each track a kind of event is narrated. Whole album flows like this, it's a Prog album. The album is like a SINGLE MEGA TRACK of 48 minutes.
Also Living Things has best production, there's not even a single bad track on Living Things. Roads Unraveled, I'll be gone, IN my remains, Powerless etc are the best rest are good.
Hunting Party is the only weak album with 2-3 good tracks rest all are repetitive, forced
I would give first five albums 5/5 and hunting party 2.5/5.
Got to entirely agree with you, Hunting Party was the first album that at all dissappointed me. Everything until then was flawless.
areteees i like hunting party :D
Verca Hokrova I as well enjoyed it, although it wasn't as great as the others.
One of the best songs by Linkin Park but sadly only a few have understood the greatness of the song.
Better than nothing I suppose, at least some can appreciate it's beauty.
Today has been impossibly hard. I went to a funeral yesterday and my brother is having problems eating and it's getting bad. Plus, my own anxieties keep spilling over the surface and I can't get a grip on myself. It's just been really hard the past couple of days. I have tried everything to help. Things just seem to get worse. I still have hope and I really hope all of this will pass over one day. LP gives me just a little bit of hope. I would be dead without them. I don't even know why I'm writing this in a YT comment section I guess I just felt like saying it. But to anyone else who feels like this you aren't alone and I'm here for you.
"It is an underrated song..." So what?! It gives me goosebumps every time and I looove it! Who cares if other peoples don't know it?! We love it. Mike, Chester, Joe, Rob, Brad and Dave did this to their fans.
LP forever!
Linkin Park Soldier forgot Brad
They did for Katrina's Disaster.
I agree
When people say "underrated" it's because they think it's good and more people should listen to it.
Eternal Dragonoid but it’s also like speaking it into reality. We should try to reach out and show people this wonderful music.
3:44 is one of the most elegant guitar solos ever...
I agree
Totally agree. It’s so good!
I agree
❤
Reminds me of that solo in November Rain
I cried for days after learning of Chester's death. Linkin Park's music will always be a part of my soul.
beautiful solo...
yeah! goosebump on my hand
Chester was an amazing artist and one of my favorites, he will be missed :( :( :(
it doesn't last longer, it sucks, their guitarist sucks
Linkin Pаrk Victor topa mais músicas
green lantern Brad has more talent than you could ever dream of.
What a powerful song. RIP Chester.
I know everybody says this on every song of theirs, but this has to be the most underrated song in history
To think that this voice will never sing again... R.I.P Chester
not to hear his voice here is hard to think of but hes still singing in heaven
One of my most favorite LP songs of all time. No words can describe how beautiful this piece of music really is.
This song has become a relatable song once again. My condolences to everyone that was involved or had family involved in the two tragic hurricanes Helene and Milton 💔💔💔💔
Unpopular opinion
This is a better closing track than Numb
It's just different, i'm getting bored of seeing comparisons all the time. Both songs are amazing, just not the same popularity, however, 2 gems.

@@xlide31 Coming back a year later. I agree with you, I had a hipster mindset for most of my life, I wouldn't say it's entirely gone but yeah I try to minimize it now because that's the kind of trait that ruins the fun in conversations about entertainment with other people.
@@Chico50445 The tendency to compare everything in our lives is getting more and more prevelant nowadays. Rare our people who have the sense and logic to understand that something are incomparable and like xlide31 said, “different”.
Yes.
i wish chester was still with us.
An then we'd still have LP kicking ass
He left us but we will NEVER leave him.
Watch there making of this album. Can't describe it in words
J
How do you not cry in the last minute and a half of this song…?
In my opinion MTM has the best and deepest lyrics, especially this song! I love it!
ATS has the best lyrics, but MTM is second! But I love ATS so much, not just bc of the awesome sound, but bc of the amazing lyrics. Most of them speak for myself.
S. O. Morales Indeed, ATS' Lyrics are great as well!
*****, yeah! Waiting For The End has my favorite lyrics ever!
From MTM, I like the lyrics from Hands Held High, LOATR, SOTD, TLTGYA, WID...
From ATS, I like the lyrics from WFTE, Iridescent, BITS, Robot Boy, WTCFM, The Messenger...
+Frenzyrobo They sure have ways of opening our eyes to the world in its entirety through music!
RIP Chester. Masterpieces like this will be on repeat during these days
Minutes to midnight is the best lp album ever made
History repeats itself
Today we sing this song for Milton.
She can’t replicate this!!! RIP THE GOAT🤍‼️‼️‼️
❤
Don't be a weird idiot.
And she's not. She gives the band a new direction. Let her be.
This is undoubtedly one of Linkin Park's most underrated songs. A truly beautiful gem that not many people know of, sadly.
Chester. :'(. Why? I'm devastated. Thank you for helping me through my toughest years.
From 3:12 the *instrumental only* is phenomenal
DustInTheWind the best, I could listen to this part for hours
It's my favourite part of the song
I could die for this 💘💘
So beautiful, it brings me to tears, actually.
Phenomenal doesn’t even begin to describe it. I can’t even find a word to describe it. It’s just beyond words, I could listen to it on repeat and never get sick of it. I miss Chester. 💜💜💜💜💜💜
The most underrated song, I mean hell yeah the guitar riff an more hell yeah to Chester
this song is a masterpiece. there's something hauntingly beautiful about it and no other song makes me feel the way this one does. I'm glad i'm feeling strong enough to listen to Linkin Park again , I've missed it
So beautiful, comforts the soul. The way it builds up is just amazing.
According to myself, The Little Things Give You Away is the best song ever by Linkin Park, as MTM is their best album.
Throught all these years, there have been many and many and many times when I thought and said I would have attended their next live in Italy.
Now I know that that day will never come.
The first time I heard Chester's voice I was ten or eleven, now I'm 21. His death is being hard to realize and it will surely hurt for a long time already. But what a great honor to have grown up whit him. I'll always be thankful to LP, for have guided me to listen good music and love Art, and to live my life trying to tell something more to the people, as next as far they are to us.
I would have so more to write, but I guess this has been enough.
Thank You So Much Chester, my dear major brother.
Keep on Rocking in the free world, always.
This song is actually crazy.
Wow, I haven't heard this music in years yet it's made me tear up more than any other time I've listened to it. I can't believe Chester is gone. This band was my everything back in the day, it really hurts to know that he took his own life. It feels like a big chunk of me has been ripped away.
I'm sorry it had to be this way. Rest in Peace you great man.
This song made me cry a lot of times. Seriously, my favourite from them at the moment. I hope the next album bring more songs like this one
Nocturnal their next album baught mainly this types of songs only but for the last time 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
It's always a beautiful song. Happy birthday, chester. 😢
out of all the Linkin Park songs that do it for me this is the one. Sad to hear the lead singer took his own life such beauty and variety in his voice. May you find peace in the after Mr. Bennington.
Hidden gem lost in the ocean.
That guitar solo gets me every time.
Absolutely amazing.
3:12 magic beginds.
when I was kid : Hybrid Theory is the best.
when I was teenager : not bad for Meteora
now I'm turning to 33 yo : Minutes to midnight is the masterpiece from LP.
We miss you a lot CB ❤️🤘

Listening to this song tonight is heartbreaking.
I'm know that feel :c
It's a Linkin Park Marathon for me. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Me too..... again!😃
This is the only song I played on repeat off this album. Coming back today for the sad vibes... RIP Chester
This is my favourite one too. The ending gives me shivers.
Absolutely. 3:52 to the end is perfect. But I just wish Chester didn't feel entitled to write a song about Hurricane Katrina when that wasn't his struggle to appropriate. Still a great musical work though in general
What's appropriation got to do with this song? Is not a tribute to those who were impacted by that disaster?
this'll be the lifelong song I'll listen tbh, I'll never forget my hero because of this song. It gave me a huge moral dilemma back when this was released so you can say that this song decided how my personality goes right now.
I come back here everyday :'( still can't believe he's gone 😔
One of those rare songs of Linkin Park that has a guitar solo. The subtexts are deep on this one.
this song is amazing
The band helped sooooo many people. Myself included in my darkest moments still to this day. I have good days and very dark ones. Their music is a source of healing for me. Every facet of all their combined talents put me at peace. I only wish we could have been that for Chester. When you get pulled into that black hole and nothing is there to pull you back the light goes out. I want people to reach out. We are here, we are ready to listen.
help me
Cheers 👍👍
This song is just purely fucking BEAUTIFUL.
