    I believe you mean instrumentals. And if instrumentals aren't real songs, then Trent Reznor would like to have a word with you. :p

    Also, I pick Lockjaw.

    I know they are instrumentals I just didn't say that because ones like Jornada and Requiem have vocals

    Jornada will get the most votes here, but I'm going with CFTI.

    I voted for Session. But it seems like you're forgetting a lot of instrumental tracks, don't you?

    Or maybe you just count tracks which are on studio albums, but then, why lockjaw too?

    Jornada Del Muerto: The cryptic bounce, haunting vocals and the deteriorating synth in this interlude are just amazing. As well as the fact that the name of the piece has a ton of meaning behind it and the Japanese lyrics are very different and touching for the band.

    "(持ち上げて、解放して) (Mochiagete, tokihanashite) [Lift me up, let me go]"

    5/5

    The Requiem
    : It accumulates pieces from every song on A Thousand Suns to create a creative yet chilling atmosphere that captures the collective of the album in an aspiring build up that screeches to a mesmerizing but abrupt stop just after the inquisitive and pleading of one whom asks about what's left for human nature after a world has been brought to it's knees.

    "God bless us everyone, will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns?"

    5/5

    Fallout: The end of the "robotifaction" and the beginning of personification to the character in a previous song. The monotonous and pessimistic Robot Boy breaks out of his/her robot shell and ascends into an apocalyptic landscape that is The Catalyst. The slow progression of mechanical apathy into real human emotion in this song is superb and it's so haunting in its presence that I can't help but to actually delve into deep thought after every listen.

    "I'm swimming in the smoke of bridges I have burned so don't apologize, I'm losing what I don't deserve"

    5/5

    "The Requiem" is one of my all-time favorite Linkin Park songs.

    "Jornada del Muerto" is definitely my favorite on this list. Let's not devalue instrumentals or interludes, though. "Jornada" is better than a lot of Linkin Park songs, as are "Session" and "Cure for the Itch."

    If the Radiance and the Requiem were considered as one thing I would totally vote for that.

    Such a shame that I think that a lot of people tend to actually let the track delimiters define what the song is, despite that the music across them is continuous.

    Me either.

    "Lockjaw"'s really a side-project track rather than a Linkin Park instrumental, IMO

    "Jornada del Muerto" is God. Yes, God with a capital G.
