It's the lyrics and vocal delivery that doesn't do it for me. The synths remind me of Numb, and it could sit on LT with songs like IMR and IBG very easily Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/16204-papercuts-singles-collection-2000-2023-manufacturing-errors/page/3/#findComment-326691 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPLStaff Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 QWERTY has to be on MTM20. Live version, studio version, etc. Unmastered version if they want. Whatever the heck they want to release with it, put it all on there. QWERTY live rehearsal 2007. Etc. lol Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/16204-papercuts-singles-collection-2000-2023-manufacturing-errors/page/3/#findComment-326692 Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 100% power chords in UIG, not even debatable https://www.linkinparkguitar.com/uploads/1/4/6/6/146660116/07_-_until_its_gone.txt The difference is there's a riff going on top that wouldn't be characteristic of meteora, but that's only in the intro/outro too And I feel like the UIG lyrics are criminally underrated given the band's explanation that it's about their kids growing up, which does actually foreshadow OML-style writing a little bit, but in a good way. Agreed that it's better than the "anti-something" generic lyrics on a lot of THP Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/16204-papercuts-singles-collection-2000-2023-manufacturing-errors/page/3/#findComment-326698 Share on other sites More sharing options...
lpliveusername Posted April 18 Author Share Posted April 18 So the LPLive community consensus is that lyrics about kids = good and everything else = bad. Got it. What does it have to do with Warner royally fucking up another Linkin Park release?

APFMH has a great message. LP lyrics were perfect, they were delivered in the perfect moment, perfect generation. without those lyrics we wouldnt be talking about the band right now.

While we're in the topic of lyrics about family, let's take some time to appreciate this beautiful song by blink-182: The point is not that, to me the point is that LP wrote really good lyrics in their career (even Mike as a solo artist did that on stuff like OA or Promises I can’t keep), but the OML hate even on the lyrics really bothers me, especially if the “role model” for lyrics is HT where you have some great stuff but even some songs where the lyrical content is as generic as the worst OML track. I hate when there’s this generalization in concepts.

millytripleseven Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 I mean, possibly a lot of hate for "the lyrics" is actually more towards how the lyrics are sung, vocal delivery, vocal dynamics, aggression or lack thereof etc. I'm sure if HT lyrics were sung over OML instrumentals I wouldn't like them, and vice-versa if OML lyrics were delivered in a different way under different instrumentals, the feelings would've been different.

martinez Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 I finally ended comparing the songs versions from Papercuts CD with original album versions and single versions. Here are the results: 01.Crawling (03:29) - album version 02.Faint (02:42) - album version 03.Numb/Encore [Explicit] (03:26) - album version, but: the 2004 is louder, the volume of this one was a bit decreased - additionally it has +1 second of silence at the end - 2024 quality, maybe a small differences in mastering/EQ 04.Papercut (03:04) - album version, despite not having 1 second of silence at the start like the original version from the 2000 CD has - very small portion of the end was cut and added to beginning of BTH to create transition 05.Breaking The Habit (03:14) - contains small transition from Papercut - album version, it missing 2 seconds with transition to FTI at the end, because it was fade out 06.In The End (03:35) - album version - -1 second of silence at the end 07.Bleed It Out [Explicit] (02:44) - album version 08.Somewhere I Belong (03:34) - album version 09.Waiting For The End (03:51) - album version, with fade out at the end just before the blackout transition - 2012 master with different effects on vocals and guitar loop at the beginning (check the updated post here) 10.Castle Of Glass (03:24) - album version with just almost 1 second of silence cut at the end 11.One More Light (04:11) - album version, the last 3 seconds of it were cut and added to BID to create transition 12.Burn It Down (03:49) - album version, almost 1 second a the end was cut from it - contains small transition from OML 13.What I’ve Done (03:25) - album version - it has an issue with intro fade in, the same like WID in some digital versions of MTM 14.QWERTY (03:21) - it's 2008 version, which means no transition from Annoncement Service Public and extra 2 seconds of silence at the end - on the Papercuts CD the 2 seconds of silence at the end were cut - quality upgrade 15.One Step Closer (02:35) - album version 16.New Divide (04:29) - the same as 2009 version, 2 seconds of silence at the end were cut - 2024 quality, maybe a small differences in mastering/EQ 17.Leave Out All the Rest (03:20) - can't really say if it's single version or edited album version, I guess it's edited album version - it contains 1 second of silence more at the end comparing to the single version 18.Lost (03:16) - album version, not 2002 mix, 2 seconds less of silence at the end - 1 second of ending of it was cut and added to Numb to create transition 19.Numb (03:06) - album version - it contains small transition from Lost Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/16204-papercuts-singles-collection-2000-2023-manufacturing-errors/page/3/#findComment-326819 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got my 2 x LP during RSD yesterday, so going to try and sit with it today and see what’s up. I did notice a cassette rip floating around, too, but it’s at the wrong speed and still sounds rough even when corrected for.

leftshoe18 Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Weird that they took the time to do some transitions here and there but didn't use the single versions as the bases, so we still have a couple moments where album transitions were just edited around instead.

Don't get your hopes high There seems to be bigger issues at play here, most notably that the masters for Waiting for the End and Iridescent got swapped out in 2012 and the wrong versions are literally everywhere.
