Hands Held High – Linkin Park (Minutes To Midnight)

A song by Linkin Park, hailed as the best-selling band of the 21st century, whose vocalist Chester Bennington’s sudden passing in 2017 shocked the world.

Featured on their third album, Minutes to Midnight, this track blends a calm yet powerful rap with a hymn-like, ethereal chorus that truly moves you.

Its cynical lyrics, which depict the horrors of war and criticize those in power, convey anger toward the harsh realities and injustices of the world.

With a sacred, requiem-like quality for lost lives, it’s a number that reaffirms the depth of Linkin Park’s message and the breadth of their musicality.

My DecemberLinkin Park27rank/position

My December – Linkin Park (Hybrid Theory)

In the early 2000s, Linkin Park completely reshaped the loud rock scene with overwhelming musicality and unprecedented commercial success.

Released in 2000, their masterpiece debut album Hybrid Theory sold a record-breaking 30 million copies worldwide.

Included as a bonus track on the Japanese edition, My December is a hidden gem I can’t recommend to those who like cheerful winter tunes or Christmas songs; rather, it’s a track I especially want people to hear if they feel like sinking into the deepest darkness of sorrow.

Composed solely by the band’s brain, Mike Shinoda, it’s an unconventional number built around solemn piano tones, programmed drums, and ambient electronic sounds.

The lyrics are essentially the monologue of a man who seems to have parted ways with someone important—seemingly a common theme—but the late Chester Bennington’s restrained vocal delivery conveys such raw pain and urgency that it reaches the depths of the listener’s heart.
