What? My December is 2-3 years old and it isn't even on a cd. Singles and videos are only released from CD's and EP's. My December is a b-side off of Hybrid Theory, just like High Voltage Remix. Videos are released to create hype surrounding an album, not just because the think a non-album song is good enough for a video. It makes no sense.

Anyways, it's a very un-linkin park-ish song, and record companies tend to stay away from change because it might hurt the reputation of the band.

[frgt10_soldier]

I wouldnt think it would ruin the bands reputation becuase it is still linkin park....i belive that the fans would still appreciate linkin park....but i guess thats the world now a days...

[Anthony.]

Hey, special release as a Christmas song :D , that'd be cool :rolleyes: . Send me a camera and I'll make a video, we've got enough snow here in December we don't need to fake ;) .

But seriously my idea for a special christmas release still stands :D .

[Kæton]

Hahahahahahaha... Linkin Park presents Christmas carols.. Ahahaha...

I have to disagree with you. Music videos aren't made just for the fans. Music videos are made for the music business all around. You have to think of music videos as a visual version of what they'd play on the radio.

Now let's say you get into LP because of My December. So let's take a look at the things wrong with this situation.... First off, what would they caption as the album the song came from? One Step Closer U.K. Single? LPU 2.0 Album? Exactly--It's not a song off an album that was released to the public (meaning anyone and everyone). So let's say they leave it out. You go to the record store and you look at all the LP albums. But wait--Oh no! What's this? There is no "My December" on Hybrid Theory, Meteora or Reanimation (the remix doesn't count)! Sooooo... Let's say you download it. But what's this? Oh no, once again! The song is completely different from what the band actually plays! ...And you trash it all.

So in conclusion I have to disagree with you. Technically only fans hear B-side tracks meaning that it didn't go well with the album which means that... yes, they're not fitting for the album. Now if you've followed me this far you'd realize... In all greatness that My December has, it will never, and I repeat, NEVER become a video. Why? Reading this post over and over again will then hopefully make you realize my point :).

[Hana]

I must agree with Keaton.
But it will be nice to see a video for this great song!!!!

[Willstar]

Keaton
No, way. It'd be Linkin Park: Christmas Songs to Mosh By. :lol:

[Anthony.]

I knew this idea was stupid :rolleyes: . When I talk, I tell 50% stupidities and 50% intelligent things. And it's up to you to determine what's what :D .

[_PianoPaPercut_]

i like my december.. :)

[Neil]

Videos are also a way for the band to make what they think the song means visualised ;)

Are you tired of saying your favorite Christmas song was a wussy one? Well, now you don't have to. Now you can get together will all your friends and MOSH, yes MOSH, on Christmas, to Linkin Park's Christmas Carols to Mosh By. GET IT TODAY!

[Glenn]

I don't care that it's not on an official album and i don't think it matters.
What LP wants to visualize through there songs for video,s they can do so. Hell they might've put one for a song on the EP er somethin. Yeah that would be cool to release my december.

I was looking on grokster and i downloaded a video for my december and it was about a relationship between a man and a woman. It was stupid, it just showed them doing certain things and had nothing to do with LP but had the music behind it.

You might not care but you're not the public. You're a fan (I hope). The fans would love to see a video for every song, but that wouldn't be right. Like I mentioned. Videos are not only made for the fans, they're made for the p-u-b-l-i-c. Imagine if you see every song a band made on MTV or Fuse, or whatever. Wouldn't it get a little tiresome? I mean, what's the point of buying an album when it'd be on T.V.? Not only that... Like I said. Would you like it if you found this new band and the song they used for the video was a demo and you find out the rest of the album is nothing like it? Exactly--waste of money and effort. B-Sides are songs that usually only fans listen to. They're songs that go on their own and don't really follow an album.

[zinha]

I love 'My December' LP should be make a vid for this song in a ... december special single :P ^_^

[ReanimatedDJ]

they should that song is really melow and its tight, i heard that My December is a copy of one of Phil Collins songs is that true

[JJ]

Personally I think more people agree with MY opinion than YOURS :rolleyes:.

Singles are made for songs from an actual album so that they create awareness and help sell more copies. Singles are mainly for album sales. No sense making a video for a song which isn't even on a cd to promote.

Although I will give you a cookie if you can find one single out there now from any band which isn't on a cd.

Why yes, I'd love to.

Go look at the Billboard Modern Rock Singles charts. you've got Staind's 'So Far Away' from a cd called "14 Shades of Grey", Linkin Park's 'Faint' from a cd called "Meteora", Nickelback's 'Someday' from "The Long Road", Evanescence's 'Going Under' from an album called "Fallen", A Perfect Circle's 'Weak and Powerless' from an album called "Thirteenth Step". All of these songs, along with the other 15 songs on the charts are songs from albums. None of these songs aren't from albums. I'm not saying singles are only for songs. I'm saying they're only for songs off of albums, for if you release a single which isn't on a cd, what is there to promote? Singles are songs picked from cds to help the album sell more copies. Do you see what I'm trying to say. My December isn't on an album, there's nothing to promote.

I've gotten what everyone has been saying. Go back to the VERY FIRST DAY that the Billboard was created, and go on from then to now....then tell me.

I never said tell me in the past 15 weeks......

[Kæton]

Why does everyone keep bringing up the past?

Times changed. If back then there were unreleased songs promoting CDs, then so be it. But this is 2003, not 60's, 70's or 80's.

I was clearly stating that THIS day and age, people release singles to promote their album. There is no band who has released a single that was not on a CD. There have been singles with unreleased songs, but never the other way around.

I'm sure you get into majority of bands because you've heard singles. Imagine if you heard a song that they did that doesn't sound like their album? Mind you that I suggest you not add in the whole 'downloading' thing because of the RIAA situations (haha).

My December sounds nothing like any other LP song, so why would they make one to promote Meteora/Hybrid Theory? It sounds nothing like either of the albums.

[black poetry]

My December is on a CD AFAIK:

The "Hybrid Theory Tawain CD" I think it is (either Tawain or Japan).

Therefore, they could make a video for it.

If they made a video for it, then they would be promoting the OSC UK Single.

[Kæton]

Sure, the Asian versions of Hybrid Theory had the two extra tracks, but it's obvious that the song does not match. Not only that, why would you make a single promoting another single :huh:?

Also, if you have not noticed by now. That is an Asian version of Hybrid Theory--Not an American version. They [Warner Bros.] have to base a lot of the stuff made on the U.S. because the U.S. is the largest area they can make money.

Like I said--it'd be illogical to make a video for a single which supposedly can only be gotten in the UK unless imported.

People would be quite pissed to go into a record store one day and find out the CD they want has to be imported, just like how outside-U.S.ers have to get U.S. material imported--it's just the same. I'm sure they'd dislike the fact of having to import something like that over and over again, so they base it on songs that are featured on the album (actually chosen to be there). If Warner Bros. or LP thought the song matched, it would have made the final cut for the overall version--but it didn't, therefor you can conclude it became a b-side to the U.S. and was considered an extra.

1) I have better things to do with my time than find out whether singles 20 years ago were from albums.
2) This is 2003, who gives a crap about how it happened 20 years ago? That has nothing to do with anything. Although I'm sure singles were released to promote albums even back then.
3) I don't know why you can't just accept the fact that what you're saying is ignorant and that you're prolonging a losing battle.

[black poetry]

Ok, a new reason why they SHOULD'VE made a video for My December, it is found on "Reanimation", which is out in a lot of countries, that would be promoting their album. They've made videos for Pts.Of.Authry (sp?), In Th E nd (sp?), and FRGT/10

Well if you want to put it that way, then there has been a video for MY<DSMBR :rolleyes:.

Good luck finding it, though. And if you're going with that statement, then I guess you have to say they made a video for every Reanimation song--and yes, they really did. I guess seeing that they made a video for every song and it was only put in the public once or twice WITH all the other Reanimation videos, that's not really promoting the album on it's own. That's like what MTV does now with their "Leak" thing. Also, My December and MY<DSMBR are different and could strike people differently ;).

I think Linkin Park should take "My December" back into the studio, rerecord it, and put it on the next record and make it the second or third single. Just a thought... :phoenix:

Note: (I'm not meaning that Linkin Park should change "My December" in anyway, just rerecord it and make every instrument stand out and mix it and everything)
