What??!! What did Linkin Park go and make a song that sounded like a CCM song, for?
Okay, so it wasn't on purpose, and it has produced a rather soothing song, but something about it—the beat, maybe?—immediately makes me suspect it's a contemporary Christian song. Which it isn't. It also resembles U2's "With or Without You".
Chester Bennington's singing even brings memories of a myriad of CCM singers. Forgive me if I really don't like the sound of this song.
"And the sun will set for you" repeats a lot more than I like, though I get the point. The song is evidently saying good-bye to someone who's dying. "Sometimes good-bye's the only way."
Overall, it's an annoyingly average song from Linkin Park, to my ear.
Lyrics: 3/5
Music: 3/5
Vocal(s): 3/5
Overall: 5/10
