Talk:Shadow of the Day

God... I loved that video. There's a few errors though. In the directors cut, it shows chester with his bag, he drops the bag, and then it cuts to the shots of the TV's In his room. There are also schematics as well as materials to make a bomb, so the explosion was him. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.157.5.209 (talk) 19:22, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Power Ballad genre

Should we consider this song a Power Ballad song? Well, if not this song, then perhaps in between or the little things give you away. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.244.30.200 (talk) 12:38, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The same song

I don't know what song it is or how it goes but it sounds exactly like this song. All I can remeber is that it was either released like beginnning this year. I want to know what song that is. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.230.66.185 (talk) 13:06, 13 November 2007 (UTC) It might of been Starlight by Muse. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Steve2497 (talk • contribs) 20:07, 4 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Not Notable

This song article is not notable and should be deleted along with most of the other articles about non-singles on Minutes To Midnight. Tim Y 00:12, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The song IS a confirmed single, why should it be deleted? Rashempashem 06:25, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This wasn't a confirmed single when I made that last message. Tim Y (talk) 02:10, 13 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

XM

For some reason, this song is recieving heavy airplay on XM radio, but Bleed it Out hasn't been played at all (to my knowledge). Anyone think this is significant? Impostor404 18:12, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

To be blunt, no. Maybe the XM DJs just prefer SotD over BIO. Hello 21 12 21:17, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Pop Rock

Shouldn't this song also be classified as pop rock considering there's nothing but special effect sounds and electronica for the first verse and first chorus? Plus there's no guitar til the bridge. I think this song should also be classified as pop rock. What do you guys think? 99.224.130.20 00:44, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This song isn't really pop rock. It's more of a slower, softer sound than older Linkin Park songs, but I don't think it's any more pop than Bleed It Out or other harder songs. Tim Y (talk) 02:02, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

well i dont think it should be alternative rock either. could we maybe take it out and leave the synth rock? lpfan4eva1990 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.224.130.20 (talk) 22:00, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Experimental Rock

Linkin Park has alot of Experimental Rock in the album this song is in. THis song is Experiemntal/Alternative/Rock. It may so be Pop Rock also. SO it is Eperiemntal Rock and maybe Pop rock, but is still Alternative Rock.

are you kidding me? theres nothing "experimental" about this album. NONE whatsoever.--SilverOrion (talk) 04:33, 11 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request Update

Yesterday was 8 October, so the page should be updated. 008'/,treme 13:36, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Then you update it instead of being lazy and telling other people to do it. Tim Y (talk) 20:19, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Other members

It says that the other band members were NOT in the video, can someone confirm this, cos i was watching the video on youtube and i saw a couple of rioters that looked like Brad and Rob, anyone got the video in a better resolution —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.31.65.41 (talk) 17:15, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What is means is that there were no other members performing the song. Example: Mike, Dave were not playing guitars/bass.

Charts

Someone vandalized them, cause SOTD isn't #1 on Modern Rock Tracks, and neither #2 on Polish Singles... someone change them back. And I suggest locking up this article... —Preceding unsigned comment added by RafaeldKsonic (talk • contribs) 22:13, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

the song is now 13 on UWC not 20 you need to update it —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.101.240.7 (talk) 16:57, 28 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

New UK release date - 12th Novemeber

October the 8th passed ages ago without a UK release date - i suppose that date was just specualation but the 12th of November date is confirmed now (check the single release date on HMV: link). Plus, whereas before the song was never added to UK radio stations' playlists, it has now.

Trivia concerning alternate video

Source plz. I'd like to see this alternate ending. Hello 21 12 20:21, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! i check this update and i found this ...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N4uOSymEU90 the quality is poor but for sure is another ending and chester die... =(

Lyrics

The lyrics section is not valid nor true, I don't think the section is necessary, the lyrics are based on someone close to you moving on or passing away (just as chester said), nothing to do with suicide. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sizedude (talk • contribs) 19:57, 9 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It could involve suicide of someone close to you, but not you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.204.91.236 (talk) 01:25, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Trivia concerning video

I think I hear the Wilhelm scream in the video. Can anyone confirm it, and if so, is it of enough note to add to the article? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.16.13.116 (talk) 18:25, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Remixes

Are there any reliable sources for the remixes of this song. I've heard the Blake Jarrell remix, which was featured on the A State of Trance weekly show by Armin van Buuren. That info seems to be notable, but I can't find any non-blog or YouTube references. --seav (talk) 15:40, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dare I say... "Rock"?

Well, lets think here for a minute. First of all, we often compare this song to With or Without You, which is classified as Rock. Honestly, there isn't anything Alternative about the sound of this song. It's just straight up Rock music. I know it's weird to think LP making a Rock song, but if one makes an honest judgement, that's what we have here.. a straight up Rock song without an alternative sound.
