No heavy metal. No soft rock. Only pure rock music that gets you pumped up, and never leaves your memory.
Nothing to say. This song helps you when you are broken.
I defy anyone not to use their hairbrush as a microphone and belt this one out in their bedroom.
The best hard rock song I've ever heard. Chester's roaring voice drove me insane when I heard it for the first time. The best part of this song is its chorus. One of the best songs created by Linkin Park.
This song deserves to be in the first position. Chester's amazing vocals are unparalleled, and when you add Linkin Park's awesome sound to that, it gives me goosebumps.
It won the Grammy for Best Hard Rock Performance, and Linkin Park is one of the greatest rock bands of the 2000s. So, Crawling should at least be a bit higher, like at #2.
This is a contender for the greatest song of all time, let alone the 21st century! What's it doing at No. 2?!
Finally, it has the number one spot it deserves. This is amazing.
Definitely #1. Everything about this song is phenomenal. It has one of the greatest solos of all time.
This song is amazing. It has good lyrics, good meaning, a good solo, and a good riff. So, this song is one of the best hard rock songs ever. Everyone, please listen to Avenged Sevenfold, and then you will know how good the band is. Avenged Sevenfold is one of the best rock and heavy metal bands of all time.
Great song, great video, great band. What's not to love?
One of those rare songs. Amazing all around!
This band is awesome, and so are their songs. Time of Dying is an exceptionally awesome song. It will always remind me of death, but this song makes me feel and live more than I could ever imagine.
I love this and Animal I've Become. They're my second favorite rock band after Guns N' Roses. Them and Velvet Revolver!
It's truly a classic. If you love hard rock, you will love this song. It's been recommended to me by many friends and fellow hard rock lovers. People who play the guitar also say that it's not a trashy song but is, in fact, quite unique and challenging to play.
A really badass song. It makes me realize that I am strong enough to conquer all the crap going on in my life right now.
Black Ice (released 12 years ago, in 2008) is one of the greatest hard rock albums of the last 20 years. Maybe 25. Probably 30.
I like Holiday and Jesus of Suburbia.
