Yup. You're right.

Although I would have liked In Pieces for a single, Given Up is pretty cool. I'm liking the sound of a live video. Should be interesting!

Agreed, and I thought Valentine's Day would have made an intresting single/video.

I do like Given Up but I really don't think it is single material. Well lets just wait and see.

That website IS NOT confirmed to be Chester's website, and should NOT be trusted, I don't care what anybody else thinks. If it was official, they would have mentioned it on one of the official websites by now.

lol, well its been completly reliable in the past, why would anyone fake that? and mike shinoda's site was never confirmed with the offical website (although he did post a thread, but Chester has never been on the forums).

Im not 100% sure on it ither, but enough to convince me + if the website is found out to be lying it would get screwed over.

the "cbennington" claims to be official but it's run by a girl which i don't remember her name. Supposedly she keeps in touch with Chester n stuff... but that's not enough to make a site official.

Anyways, LP could sew her for that site.

Regarding the video.... a live video, what's going on with Mista Hahn?

that website isnt to be trusted
i agree with Aphelion

it hasnt been confirmed AT ALL by the official LP website or myspace there is no OFFICIAL video or anything claiming to be his website .

besides a live video for given up would be really lame
if anything BIO shoulda been live but not given up

I have to agree with this. I don't know about the site. And yep BIO would have been a better video had they done a live one then. Given Up not sure about a live one for that.

I'll be frickin heated if they do a live vid. It's my favorite song off the album...I don't want concert footage. I want a storyline...I want Chester to break shit lol. Like maybe turn into the incredible hulk or something.

Given Up is a very "dynamic" song, i always thought that since the first day i listened to it. However, i was expecting something better. I wanted Given Up to be a single because I wanted to see what Hahn came up with.

she asked chester to post this message
Hey, this is Chester and I am confirming that this is the official CB
website. I met with Jen during PR because she seems to know what I'm
doing before I do.....ha ha.....asked her if we could make cbonline my
official site and if she would like to run it. This is the beginning
of our work togther we hope you enjoy it as much as you have in the
past. Please feel free to make any suggestions on how we can improve
this site for everyone, and give a round of applause to Jen for
running great fan sites like this.................Yours
Truly, Chaz

but as long as i don't see his face, i won't believe it :P

Live video=extreme.
EXTREMELY LAME!
What is wrong with Mr.Hahn?Out of ideas?
Bleed it out was such a dissapointing vid.Don't make the same mistake twice!Please!Please...Please...A live video definitely won't do this brilliant song any justice.Don't wreck a nearly perfect song just by doing a live vid...Please...

I think that something with an actual storyline wiuld be better than live footage. But it is true LP are on tour at the moment, and with the pressure of release dates...

This gotta be fake...anyway how much singles does LP make per album ? (I guess 4)...and Chester has mentioned somewhere that Little Things Give You Away will be a single,cuz it's an epic song...hmm. I don't know what to think...I'll wait only for official news and that's what everybody should do instead of creating wrong illusions.

And if that Live Video thing is true...we had "bleed it out" somehow and it wasn't that good...another one ?

And at tha site the media section doesn't work...the pictures section is password protected at Fotki. I just doesn't have the official guts..I say fake as hell,but anyway i'm not sure...

Live video will ruin the song...don't do it. I hope that is fake. I would love to see some flying ninjas :P

I mean Given Up is one of my fav songs on the album. It has energy so don't screw it please. It was cool if they made a nice video full of effects very similar to somewhere i belong, one step closer or in the end.

I don't believe it right now. They've already done the whole live footage thing for Points of Authority, and the guys are too creative to do the same video twice.

01-26-2008, 12:52 PM

On chester's site/blog he tells us all how the next video (most defo the next single then) for Given Up will be live!

http://www.cbennington.com/

"We are starting to shoot our new video for Given Up and I think it's going to turn out really good. The band has decided to go with a live video and I think it's perfect for the song. We always do really big expensive videos and it's nice to take a break from that."

:D :D that's really awesome
Could seem a bit with "Points of authority" video
I really like this one
A live video is a great idea
Though I'd like more if it was a "normal" video
Can't wait

It could be due to the fact that all there videos looked fairly expensive. Isn't the Crawling video like the 25th most expensive music video made or something. SOD looked pritty expensive, BIO slightly and nither of them where amazing.

I would have liked to have seen something from Mr. Hahn but to be honest with you non of LPs videos have ever completly wowed me (although Faint did a bit and that was one of the only ones not directed by mr.hahn).

i don't know, the live video could come out pritty decent, don't rule it out alltogether, lol I will look for cameras on Monday :D.

heyosnow

01-26-2008, 06:10 PM

they are "timeless", so they will do one points of authority pt 2
bleed it out must be better if was a live video

tpbarbosa

01-26-2008, 06:29 PM

was "almost" a live video (if u know what I mean)

heyosnow

01-26-2008, 07:06 PM

given up video, could be like their vmas performance
with one "crowd" by fans from lpu, good light, not showing their faces, almost one faint pt2

seeee! told you all so. :P

btw: I saw loads of cameras during Given Up yesterday, although I think Chester screwed up just before the long scream, sung the wrong verse or something, not sure. I was to busy to try and get my face on camera, to busy trying to breath/stay alive to enjoy anything lol.

i guess im happy about given up as a single. i was just hoping for no more sorrow.

well either way, we will get to see chester do his scream during the middle of the song. Im surprised he has not started to choke after that. He is truly amazing

02-01-2008, 03:39 AM

If it is the single (and that would be quite awesome) I hope it isn't a live video.
I agree with a poster above in seeing what Mr Hahn is able to do with the video.

Whatever. As long as I hear it on the radio and tv, its all good. Love that song.

MusicalMorphine

02-01-2008, 11:40 AM

It will be a live video because at the show they told us that they will be filming for it and that we wern't allowed to look in the camera lol. The guy was like "Look at chester, not the camera" Gladly. :p

02-01-2008, 01:48 PM

Yeah I remeber that lol I think given up is the perfect song to be live and to be the next single

02-01-2008, 03:46 PM

woah, someone told me given up would be the next single & before i read this i just knew itd be a live vid. XD it makes sense, itll look good with that song & meh i dunno, just seems right. :p

There's also Wikipedia. It also says that Given Up will be the next single. Idk if LP will change this, but I pretty much rely on Wikipedia for info, and so far, it has not let me down. I'll give you the link.

You kidding?? Dude, Mike announced at the 1/28 show that they were filming live footage for Given Up, which is to be their next single. Plus, cbennington.com has been confirmed as Chester's official site, and it said Given Up's the new single. Official enough for me.
Yeah I know...I forgot about Mike's announoncement (dumb).So given up is the next single OFFICIALLY.Please don't post anymore links and stuff.

Btw I really read that before about Mike announcing it.I just forgot it.That guy that posted above me confused me lol..I hope the video will be cool.

Yep, I also heard it with my own ears as it was announced at the O2 gig on the 28th Jan. The guy filming on stage with the camera was also a giveaway.

02-04-2008, 11:38 AM

Well i'm glad they did given up for awhile I had this strange feeling it would be valentines day... which wouldn't have been that bad but like alot people have said it's not single material and also it's more mixed up this way... First mtm single was What I've Done (rock) Bleed It Out (rap-rock) Shadow Of The Day (soft balad) and now Given Up (Hard Rock) :D I was thinking it should of been Given Up or NMS... it's just a lil dissapointing cuz if it's given up then it would be censored and I don't like videos that change the song... oh well not that bad...
