    Today, July 15, 2012, is the fourth anniversary of the single release of "Leave Out All the Rest", one of the band's most gorgeous ballads. "Leave Out All the Rest", personally is one of my favorite LP songs of all time, thanks to its beautiful message, humble lyrics, and, as said by Minus, "a monster chorus."

    Still love this song. One of my favorites from MTM. That remix is by far one of the best I've ever heard from this band. That mpc is too EPIC

    One of my favorite song, and I agree with Zane regarding that remix, it's awesome! And I also think that the video is one of their best, with the story and the band actually acting.

    Still love the song. I think I've learned to love it more over the years. It has aged very well and still sounds fresh. The lyrics are some of LP's best.

    Love it. A song that, if I think about it deeply, it can make me cry every time, so I just keep my mind in a shallow place when I play it, I enjoy it a lot.

    Agreed, it has some of the best lyrics from LP to date.

    Great song. I got to hear an acoustic version of this song live at the London Summit. This was such a special (and fucking surreal) moment for me and it definitely made me appreciate the song even more.

    I only filmed a little bit because my HD camera had died at this point so I was using my phone here:

    Agreed. This song is still one of Linkin Park's greatest songs. It's my favorite song from the pre-ATS era and it still sends shivers down my spine every time I hear it. I also love all the references to Sunshine in the music video. My absolute all-time favorite movie, because Danny Boyle is awesome.

    I also can't help noticing in the music video that compared to the size of the spaceship, that is an EXTREMELY low mass star they're flying by.

    Aaaaand insert the one guy to ruin the happy mood :sweating:

    I wouldn't say I dislike the song, in fact every time I listen to it I can still jam along with the melody. I just feel like everything about Leave Out All The Rest has been done better in subsequent ballads from the band, and because of that I forget it exists over superior tunes from ATS and Living Things. Although I will say that the lyrics are a standout element to the song.

    And from what I remember, that remix is absolutely insane. That style should be incorporated into the band's more recent remixes.

    Amazing, amazing song. One of the best LP songs ever wrote, much like the rest of MTM. The lyrics are really emotional and you can actually FEEL the emotion in the song. Makes me cry sometimes. I want it played at my funeral. Fear is also amazing, as well as the M. Shinoda remix and live versions!

    Best song on MTM for me, Best Lyrics from LP from MTM and ATS combined in my opinion, or atleast one of the best.

    I wouldn't say it is the best song from MTM, but it's definitely up there. I think I want to make this song as my funeral song as well. It would fit perfectly. I think everyone wants to be remembered for the good things when they pass on, not the bad things. I think that's like a universal message. The song is really about death and regret. This is why I love LP's lyrics.
