Hm. This will be odd since I believe this is the first time Linkin Park has released a soundtrack-only single. Curious to see if it will do as well as others or if radio will swallow it whole.

Song will be released on Monday. If this isn't leaked early, any chance this won't debut number 1?
(You all know I've been waiting for this!)

Well if you're talking about alternative radio, I'd say Green Day will probably be at its peak # of spins that week. My guess is, especially given it's a soundtrack single, that it will struggle to get to #1, but if it's substantially stronger than the new Green Day, may have a shot at the top.

After MtM, I don't think a soundtrack single is gonna debut at number one. I do think it has a decent shot to get there eventually, but I wouldn't hold my breath for anything more than top 10.
And it's not this Monday that it's being released, it's the 18th.

Somewhere I Belong and What I've Done were both released on a Monday and I believe both hit number 1 that week. However, I think I remember that one of them was leaked early and therefore it didn't debut number 1. Can someone with a chart database help on this?
As for Green Day holding on, I never thought their song was anything special; I have higher hopes for Linkin Park.

Wow. Green Day, Linkin Park, 311 and Incubus all on the radio at once.
I feel happy. :)

"Somewhere I Belong" debuted at #4 and spent a week at #2, even, before climbing to #1. "What I've Done" debuted at #1.

I'm sure no matter what it sounds like it will definitely hit the Top 10, but Top 5? I'm not really sure. Being from a soundtrack and in between albums may push it down slightly.

Awesome news. I wasn't expecting something new from Linkin Park at all! Though it's only a single from a soundtrack, I hope they will stick with a more Alternative Rock sound à la Minutes To Midnight.

This is so freakin cool, I was totally not expecting to hear anything new from them for a good year yet. Very nice surprise. They were my #1 favorite band for several years, and they're still up there.

Meteora > Hybrid Theory > Minutes To Midnight > Reanimation Agreed, although HT and MTM are neck and neck for me, even though I know most people think HT is so superior to it. To be completely honest I know there's no CD I've ever owned that I played more than Meteora. It was released when I was 13, and I literally played it all the time up until I was about 16. It will probably always be the album that I most associate with my teen years, which makes it pretty impossible for them to ever beat it for me.

Hybrid Theory > Minutes to Midnight >>>>>>>>>>>> Meteora
I have to question the sanity of anyone who ranks Hybrid Theory 2 as their favorite Linkin Park album. I was so disappointed at the complete lack of growth after 3 years when I played the album all the way through the first time.

I have to go MTM, HT then Meteora way down that list. I can't say that one song from Meteora even goes to my recurrent iPod list, lol. Just never clicked with me at all. But the other two I liked a lot.
I have a feeling though that this will pretty much be a throwaway song in the catalogue of LP. Kinda like how I felt about Disturbed song from the first Transformers movie. Hope they prove me wrong.

I was so disappointed at the complete lack of growth after 3 years when I played the album all the way through the first time. Because Meteora is the ultimate evolution of the HT sound. HT was like the warm up, and Meteora is the main setlist. The nu metal sound will never be perfected more so than it was on Meteora, imo. Now if they had tried to use the same sound on MTM, it wouldn't have worked, because Meteora left virtually no room for growth in that sound. Whereas on HT there was plenty of room for growth in that genre.

I was so disappointed at the complete lack of growth after 3 years when I played the album all the way through the first time. Since atunes already touched on this, I'll just sum it up. Hybrid Theory was full of filler, Meteora was solid all the way through and it warranted several listens. As opposed to HT, in which I could listen to tracks here and there but not often the entire album. Why can't anyone just disagree with you? Either they're wrong or you "question their sanity."
