In The End

"In the End" is a song by American rock band Linkin Park, from their debut album Hybrid Theory (2000). The song was released on November 21, 2001 as the fourth and final single from Hybrid Theory. The song was written by the band and produced by Don Gilmore. The concept of "In the End" is about one person's failure, although the song can also symbolize broken trust in friendships and relationships. "In the End" is considered to be one of Linkin Park's most recognizable and signature songs.

"In the End" received positive reviews from music critics, with most reviewers complimenting the song's signature piano riff, as well as noting rapper Mike Shinoda's vocal prominence in the song. "In the End" also achieved mainstream popularity, and was a commercial success upon release. The song reached the top ten of numerous worldwide music charts and reached #2 on the Billboard Hot 100, the band's highest peak on the chart, as well as their first song that peaked within the Top 40. It also reached number one on the Z100 Top 100 songs of 2002 countdown. This song also ranked at #121 in Blender magazine's The 500 Greatest Songs Since You Were Born. The song is Billboard's second most played rock song of the decade. It was also remixed on Reanimation as "Enth E Nd". The music video of the song, directed by Nathan Cox and the band's turntablist Joe Hahn, featured the band in a fantasy setting.

"In the End" was very well received by contemporary rock music critics. Canoe.ca's Mike Ross referred to the song by stating: "It's too bad, really. In the vast tar pits of the rap metal genre, a few good bands emerge - yet still may be branded as 'just another rap metal band'." VH1 ranked it number 84 on its list of the 100 Greatest Songs of the '00s. The song was also ranked number 2 by Loudwire on its list of 'Top 21st century Hard Rock songs'.

The single CD was released as a "Part 1" single and a "Part 2" single. They differed in tracks and cover color: the "Part 1" cover is yellow and the "Part 2" cover is red. The "Part 1" cover is shown on the right. A DVD version of "In the End" was also released which includes an audio version of "In the End", "Crawling" music video and four 30 seconds interviews.

On March 27, 2002 the single was released in Japan as a 7-track CD called In the End: Live & Rare. It contains live tracks of "Papercut", "Points of Authority" and "A Place for My Head"End', "Step Up" (originally appeared on Hybrid Theory EP), "My December" and "High Voltage".

第一次听到是在02年的时候。那时候我哥他们喜欢玩cs。然后喜欢听这首歌。后来我偶然的机会点开我哥下载的mv，看mv听到这首歌，感觉整个人被震撼到了，如同发现了新大陆。从此爱上了他们。听过了几乎全部他们的歌曲。 虽然别人认为这是吵杂，这是噪音，但是在我看来，这是生命的宣泄。这是自由的呐喊。

走好…真的走好啊……哇有点想哭了

能写出一首首充满希望的歌，他的内心又何尝没有过希望，只是黑暗过于强大，在自我拉扯中希望最终被黑暗吞没……而活着的我们，每天不也总在希望与黑暗之间挣扎？

一年了，上帝你听就听吧。。。但你一定要照顾好他，未来我要到天堂看到一个完整的老查，否则我跟你没完！！！[流泪][流泪][流泪]

告诉一些不是很熟悉LP的人们一个秘密。in the end的前身就是LP在1999年发布的专辑《Hybrid Thory Demo》的序曲Untitled。in the end保留了副歌和伴奏，不过RAP歌词是改了的。

认为是噪音的人脑子可能不太正常

哇塞，这首歌我听的比较晚啊，这首歌都比我大[亲亲][亲亲][亲亲][亲亲][亲亲]
