Numb (Official Music Video) [4K UPGRADE] – Linkin Park

In the desperate struggle to live up to others’ expectations, you can lose sight of who you really are.

This song powerfully portrays that uniquely youthful conflict and anguish.

It repeatedly voices the exhaustion of continually performing the “ideal self” demanded by parents and teachers, the loneliness of being understood by no one, and the sense of emotions going numb—resonating deeply with listeners in their teens and twenties.

Beginning with gentle piano and synthesizer and erupting emotionally at the chorus, the arrangement is breathtaking.

Released in September 2003 as the third single from the album “Meteora,” it became a massive hit, topping the music charts for 12 consecutive weeks.

The music video, filmed in Prague, has surpassed one billion views and is highly acclaimed for its visual expression.

When you feel on the verge of losing your sense of self, this song will be there to stay by your side.
