Numb To Be New Single?

[Bryan]

Rumour has it that this past Saturday at the Summer Sanitarium at the Skydome in Toronto, Ontario, Canada; Mike Shinoda told the crowd that "Numb" will in fact be the next single off of Meteora. Mike also said that they are already done shooting the video and that it was finished before Summer Sanitarium even started.

For right now this should still be considered a rumour untill there is an official word posted up on LinkinPark.com.


Thanks to mcnasty for this news.

Well if Mike did say that...who knows.

What flavor do you guys want? :(



Anyway, the video should be awesome times 1000. I have no clue how they could make it crappy.

[erasethepain]

I'm happy that Numb might be the single. Even though it won't get much play on the hard rock stations (if any at all), I'd still be happy. It's one of my favorite songs off of Meteora. I'm pretty suprised though. I figured it would be Lying From You or Don't Stay.

It's kinda weird how one of the last tracks would become a single. Someone posted a list of when singles come out and it said Numb would come out on September 1st. I didn't believe him because some of the dates were off.

[linkinparkbby101]

numb is a awesome song and sup013 is right i dunno how they could make it crappy tellin by their last music vid. this is gonna be a awesome vid~!! :D

IF Numb was going to be a single, remember it would be a single in the UK. Like Papercut, itll just be regularly played over there, wouldnt be the single for this country.

Why would he tell a Canadian croud what the UK single is going to be? Much less even telling them. There's enough people saying it's true and I've seen no one denying it that's been there.

Not really.

They haven't stated whether this is their UK single or their worldwide single.

ok thats true, I didn&#39;t think of that......but if it is a single here I will raise hell if the local radio stations overplay it.....I know people from like every station, s**t will go down. :chaz:

when papercut was released it wasnt only released in the u.k it was released in most of the country&#39;s in europe

Yes, the video gets released in all of Europe but the single itself (the CD) is only released in the UK and Australia.

[The Doctor]

Because Numb is probably my favorite LP song, im getting the single imported if it comes out....2 of them...one for BS&#39;ing with and one thatll stay in the wrapping.

[Derek The Infamous]

Thats a shock. I always thought Numb would be kind of the In The End of Meteora in terms of success if it was released but I never thought it would become a single because its a last song and those are rare to become singles. Just goes to show how off I was.

My guesses were:

SIB>Dont Stay>Hit The Floor>Faint(Or From The Inside)

Then after Faint was the next single my guesses were

SIB>Faint>Dont Stay>Hit The Floor(or From The Inside)

Now that I was wrong twice here&#39;s my final guesses.

All US Singles:
SIB
Faint
Numb
Don&#39;t Stay
Hit The Floor(If they release 5 singles which doesnt seem likely)

UK Single:
Nobody&#39;s Listening

*hopes I wont be proved wrong again :lol:*

[Cal]

i think this is LP&#39;s best chance to have a U.K number one, if they are ever gonna get one

theres only been 2 rock/nu-metal songs in the last 2-3 years that have went to number 1 in the uk

Limp Bizkit - Rollin&#39;
Evanescence - Bring Me To Life

[erasethepain]

Lying From You or Dont Stay after Numb.

Papercut gets a bitchload of airplay over here in the US on the radio station I listen to.

[[Darken Hybrid]]

That&#39;s great news. I can&#39;t wait to see the video.

Numb is my favorite song on Meteora, and my second overall favorite LP song. I hope what Mike said is true because I really wanted Numb to be a single.

[LPxchicaxMKS]

i really hope it becomes a single..it is one of my favorite linkin park songs.

[Whimsicality]

Yea, this is my first post in awhile...Hi everyone :)

Well I&#39;m kind of torn. Numb was sort of a special song, you know?

But then again, it&#39;s a kick ass track that&#39;ll do well on alternative and (maybe) top 40 stations.

I really really hope it&#39;s worldwide release....

Someone said they think Nobody&#39;s Listening would be a UK release..I agree. If BMTL and Rollin&#39; (both rap rock tracks) did well, then Warner Bros. will release a rap rock single. Numb hardly as any rapping at all.

Yes, but Nobody&#39;s Listening doens&#39;t have much rock, though. It needs to be a balanced rap/rock track.

[[Darken Hybrid]]

If Numb is going to be the UK single, then what is going to be the single in the USA and when are they going to be released? Any guesses?

[Mcnasty]

I was watching the Much Music Summer Sanitarium After party today on TV and this is what I heard from Joe " We just shot a video for a upcoming single, cant tell you what but um Chester and I kind of talked together on the phone, kind of going over some ideas and that turned in to the idea that um we shot. We actually went over to Prague to shoot part of the video but its cool, it’s a little different than stuff we&#39;ve done in the past ."

This is an exact quote from Joe which I got off of the Summer Sanitarium After Party on Much Music. Prague is a European city so I&#39;m guessing that Numb is going to be the European single but I could be wrong.

[User Name]

It&#39;s spelt Prague.

[Mcnasty]

Thanks.

"Bring Me To Life" has no rap. Paul McCoy is not rapping. Paul McCoy is not a rapper. THAT IS NOT RAP.

You only say that because your a fan of both bands. But to someone who is just listening to that particular song, it seems like he&#39;s rapping.

Well, I thought he was.

I guess it would all depend on who it is. :wth:

[freo_111]

yeah i have heard loads of rumours about Numb being the new single B)

[Aaron]

I leave for what, 5 days, and check these forums nd what do i find out. The next single could possibly be "Numb".

Maybe they are just going to make a video for the fans in which they can veiw by accessing a site off LP.com which can only be accessed by inserting your CD. This track is clearly ment for the fans and if anything, i see it as they are despirate for a rise in sales.

Although, I wouldn&#39;t mind having "Numb" as a single.

Weird enough yet?

Yes Mike said Numb is already made and that it is the next single. HOW MANY TIMES DO I GOT TO SAY THAT, its not like I&#39;m going to make up stuff and I dont think Mike would make up all that stuff to thousands of people and the way the told the crowd it didnt seem like a lie, so I my self think Numb is going to be the next single but who knows and Newfy I dont think the video is going to be on the LP site and not on TV, they said its a single so it should be all over TV and the radio and how could the meteora CD access the video on the site when it came out before the vid was made :mellow:

[Cal]

according to push me away.com chester has confirmed numb is the new single

[Jawknee]

I always thought of Numb as a personal track for people who bought the album. But I think we can rake in some new fans and sales with this one. ^_^

[tkd_rap]

i dont know, another soft song release, people already who havent heard the cd say lp is pop, if they release a good hard balls kicking song like hit the floor or figure 9, they could shake that image, plus i like to see a vid dark, and i dont mean lighting. mike makes a good evil grin :mike:

[fearphobic]

OMG&#33;&#33;&#33; Numb??? ok i was least expectin it...but how can Numb be a single?? ok...i luv that song...itz one of the koolest on the album especially since it relates to me...but i think itz tooo personal to release as a single&#33;&#33;&#33; am i the only 1 who thinks this way??? (hey...i didn&#39;t read all the posts so don&#39;t blame me if i&#39;m repeating stuff)... :whistle: (w00t) :P

Yea i agree. They need to show people that they are a rock based band and dont just do rap and beats and stuff. Faint kinda gave them that idea but LP needs to make it clear with something like Hit the Floor. Numb is a pretty good song though

[LinkinTheory]

I think we just have to wait it out. But I say if Numb the single than more power to ya&#33; Or whatever.

[Jawknee]

Why do you guys care about Linkin Park&#39;s image to others? I frankly could give a rat&#39;s ass what other people think about LP anymore. I love them and I don&#39;t need to prove they&#39;re one of the greatest bands to anyone else.

I agree.

[Alacrity]

I dont care about their image. I love their music and thats that BUT in order to attain more fans they may just want to release something harder to reach more people. buts thats just my opinion

[tkd_rap]

well kick me for caring about my band, wanting them to be number 1, and getting more fans so they can go on and live forever. well, sorry my bad :lol: :angry: :( :whistle: :wth: :rasberry:

They already released a hard song which is Faint. Now they need to release a softer songer to attract the pop culture (Not saying that Linkin Park is Pop). And maybe for the fourth single it should be Don&#39;t Stay to attract One Step Closer kind of fans.

[Jawknee]

Why do you guys think Linkin Park has to follow this order you guys are creating? They don&#39;t have to release a "hard" song and then a "soft" one. I&#39;m sorry, do you work at Warner Bros.?

Yes, I do... *pulls out badge*

And yes, I DO say that they need to release a hard song and then a soft one :rolleyes:...

I also work with Road Runner records and I say Slipknot&#39;s next single will now be &#39;soft&#39; because their last single was &#39;hard&#39; :).
