@@Chaotic_evil_duck there’s a bonus edition to ATS? Because initially Blackbirds was a promotional release (I guess you could say) that you could only find it once you had completed their iPhone game that was called “8-bit Rebellion.” [released 26 April 2010]
For everyone who reads this comment: This song was not recorded for "A Thousand Suns" This is one of the seventeen songs recorded for "Minutes To Midnight": - "Wake" - "Given Up" - "Leave Out All The Rest" - "Bleed It Out" - "Shadow Of The Day" - "What I've Done" - "Hands Held High" - "No More Sorrow" - "Valentine's Day" - "In Between" - "In Pieces" - "The Little Things Give You Away" - "No Roads Left" - "Across The Line" - "Blackbirds" - "What We Don't Know" - "The 17th song is unknown"

God damn it I would’ve KILLED for this to have opened Minutes To Midnight. They could’ve dovetailed the opening moments of “Wake” into the end of “Blackbirds,” led into the rest of, “Wake,” and then, “Given Up.” Not only would it have been powerful and worked tonally, but lyrically, “Blackbirds,” is PERFECT in front of, “Given Up.”
@@bradenheeres9941 it was fetured on A Thousand Suns as a bonus song after it was first released as an unlockable prize after completing their 8-bit rebellion game. But the song was one of the 5 songs that was ultimately cut from the original 17 song tracklist of Minutes To Midnight. So i for one really hope they do a 20th anniversary edition for Minutes To Midnight in 2027. It's the album that had the most songs made for it. We have already gotten the complete versions of No Roads Left and Across The Line on spotify with the 15th anniversary edition. So really hope we get the last 3 aswell and more even. Including Blackbirds in the best quality. :)
I've just done it but in a simpler way thanks to a app called Mp3 cutter. I've basically just had to put the song "Wake" at the end of "Blackbirds" so it's has becomes a one full track (4:36 long). Of course I've made it the very first track of the album just before "Given Up" and it's sounds great.
Ngl they should have put this onto one of the official Albums, its that good. Really one of the best Songs of the ones that are unknown and more underground level
So a a flock of crows is called "A murder" and legend has it crows carry the souls of who has passed to the land of the dead / after life. Whenever he says "Black birds following me" I take it as death is always following him around ready to close in on. most likely was an expression of depression feeling like death is around every corner, waiting for us while the clock ticks.
@AliceRabbitson-h4d Black birds can mean anything that resembles a black bird. To be fair it doesn't mention crows. That's just my interpretation of the song and where my imagination takes me.
@@mateop607 The genius thing about LP lyrics, especially in 1000 suns and MTM is that they can be interpreted in 2 to 3 ways, depending on the song. One could say it's about politicians, the other it's about personal struggles, while they also connect straight to Chester. Mike is a brilliant songwriter
I will never get over Chester's passing. Luckily I have seen Linkin Park on their Meteora tour here in Birmingham UK and Vancouver Canada. Unforgettable shows. Thanks Chester
Quel bonheur d'entendre cette chanson et la voix de Chester c'est d'une beauté personne ne peut remplacer ce grand chanteur linkin Park quel tristesse de ce dire que Chester est parti pour toujours mais c'est chanson son la pour encore des décennies il seront toujours dans la mémoire des gens pour l'éternité les légendes ne mort jamais Chester de la haut c'est a quel point on l'aime ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ merci a toi Chester rip
Oh my god, all my wounds are just reopening!... I've known and loved Linkin Park since its inception. Chester died 2 days before my birthday in '17 and I sat there, frozen, numb, silent, with a broken heart. Unfortunately, I have shared Chester's illness all my life and I will be just as free as he is... It hurts sooo much... Too much... 🌬️✨✨✨💔
@@sourangshusarkar5943 Hey... Thank you for your words... I'm too exhausted... There's no place for me here anymore. I just want to go home, soon or never. Take good care of yourself!! Love you for your words... Bye. ✨
Nn conoscevo questo pezzo dei link in pari, e come sempre ,mentre ascolto la voce di Chester d oro mi commuovo fino alle lacrime e vedendolo nel video a maggior ragione.amo amo amo e rimpiango di nn averlo potuto vedere un suo concerto live,nn melo perdonerò mai !!!ma lui e sempre presente costantemente nella mia vita !adoro andare a dormire con i suoi video in cuffia!
I forget exactly what was said I want to say that Mike touched upon this part of the lyrics but that fall line references, an old tradition across multiple cultures, but I think this particular variation that Mike was talking about it was from the American wild west where they would put coins on a dead person’s eyes to essentially help keep the eyelids closed because I guess through some sort of physiological process. Sometimes the body would spasm post-mortem, and the eyelids would end up popping open so the coins were put on their eyelids to prevent that from happening.
Honestly I'm glad that this is a bonus track for A Thousand Suns because this song is too good for Minutes to Midnight (the albums not bad, I just really like ATS)
Wait, I've heard this song so much when I used to play LP in the background while playing CS. But now since years I've switched to Spotify and this went missing. Holy shit.
This honestly might be my favorite linkin park song and idk if it even has an official release, beyond that phone game from over a decade ago now. Just wild
R.I.P Chester, you were truly the coolest and really talented person to look up to and i still do, my childhood had good memories because of LP. Thank you to the rest of LP too you guys are a great thing the world still needs especially in times like these. ✌✌
I can't believe I've listened all Linkin Park songs. It's so Sci-fi like. Actually beyond this world. That's why Chester Bennington given up. He didn't deserved this world and he knew it.
I don't wanna bring a dilema of new singer Emily into this. But for some reason I can't even begin to imagine her singing this. She probably could, it's not a difficult song when it comes to vocals. But it wouldn't hit the same, nowhere close, especially since we know what Chester was going through.
This world is at war with themselves because of what they want and what they need. The universe and everything is all about humans never dying. We want another nature but this nature is the one we need
Being that right NOW is the first time I ever heard this song - man now I miss Chester's unique vocals. 😔 Was a big fan, man - and I'm STILL a huge fan of Linkin Park despite the crap they're seemingly getting for now. Been a fan of the group since I was in Elementary School when Hybrid Theory was released to the world.
I really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really want This song to be on Spotify, cause i absolutely love it and I want it to be part of my spotify-playlist.

It’s on Apple Music

This is such a great song. I wish this was on the 1000 suns album
It is the Deluxe version
The style is from minutes to midnight
@@dhanthiko It is from the MTM era
This is on the iTunes exclusive version of A Thousand Suns
it was released on the ATS but it was recorder in the MTM era.

For everyone who reads this comment: This song was not recorded for "A Thousand Suns"
This is one of the seventeen songs recorded for "Minutes To Midnight":
- "Wake"
- "Given Up"
- "Leave Out All The Rest"
- "Bleed It Out"
- "Shadow Of The Day"
- "What I've Done"
- "Hands Held High"
- "No More Sorrow"
- "Valentine's Day"
- "In Between"
- "In Pieces"
- "The Little Things Give You Away"
- "No Roads Left"
- "Across The Line"
- "Blackbirds"
- "What We Don't Know"
- "The 17th song is unknown"
Maybe that 17th is Pretend To Be or Chance Of Rain, those are finished demos
17 songs were in the running to be on the album, but there were actually about 100 songs recorded
It´s a crime that they left out Across the Line, that is such a good song
2027 will be fire
What we don't know is a fantastic song 🎉

I shiver and shake the warm air cold
I'm alone on my own
In every mistake I dig this hole
Through my skin and bones
It's harder starting over
Than never to have changed
With Blackbirds following me
I'm digging out my grave
They close in, swallowing me
The pain, it comes in waves
I'm getting back what I gave
I sweat through the sheet as daylight fades
As I waste away
It traps me inside mistakes I've made
That's the price I pay
It's harder starting over
Than never to have changed
With Blackbirds following me
I'm digging out my grave
They close in, swallowing me
The pain, it comes in waves
I'm getting back what I gave
I drop to the floor like I did before
Stop watching
I'm coughing
I can't be more
What I want and what I need are at constant war
Like a well full of poison
A rotten core
The blood goes thin
The fever stings
And I shake from the hell that the habits bring
Let the sick ones down
The bells will ring
Put pennies on the eyes
Let the dead men sing
With Blackbirds following me
I'm digging out my grave
They close in, swallowing me
The pain, it comes in waves
I'm getting back what I gave
I'm getting back what I gave
I'm getting back what I gave
❤️
Thank you
