I mean of course I understand Warner (or the band) not wanting any song to leak, cause they could have profit out of it in the future (or for sentimental value for the band). But shit happens, pretending that it never leaked and trying so hard to erase its existance doesnt really help. I mean its 1 song out of thousands of demos that the band has made all these years. Its not like songs are being leaked this way often. Most of unheard demos we've found have been "discovered" rather than leaked. I understand that it might have sentimental value for the band if Chester was involved in it (seems to be contriversial if Chester does those backing vocals), but if it doesnt its just 1 song, it be better if Warner and LP promoted the song instead of trying to bury it. Even posting about it on social media or release it in the best quality for free would be very nice. Its free advertisment anyway I dont think its such a huge deal after all for a band like LP with thousands of demos.

There really aint that much info available about the song.

From the Linkinpedia page about the song:

 

 

I am confused. Did the song leak way earlier but only to the public a couple of days ago?

I dont believe so, i think the first time it was heard of was 2 days before it got leaked when a guy posted a snippet of the song in his soundcloud

Where I can listen to that song?

all the links are been taken down very fast.

Nice, keep us updated on your projects

Does LinkinPedia "Submit Corrections" still works? (http://linkinpedia.com/index.php?title=Submissions)

I hear Chester in the back for a small part too. Not 100% sure, but I think its him.

I really dont get why people started doubting its really our boys. Its very rare that we get a "fake" leak anyways. Plus there is no really no reason to believe its fake, everything sounds like em.

Happy that facts got gathered fast to prove its real for those who doubt it. Maybe we get a post from the band about it too, they do it sometimes with leaks/discoveries, who knows.

Thank you for the support! i  will work in another LP stuff to clean... i already did some.

Id love to hear Much To Easy with removed noise. I really love that people work on my discoveries to improve them, it inspires me
Also would really like She Couldnt, its a personal favourite

So there is a guy in Soundcloud that claims to have the song. I suppose he is selling it or something, there is a snippet. "What Are You Worth" is a confirmed title of an OML demo and its probably this song. I'm just saying people should look into this, however for some reason the quality isn't great. The same person also claims to have MTM and ATS instrumentals. Someone started already this topic in Reddit so i thought I should let people here know this thing exists.

Nice! Good job

He performed it in China and in Vienna and probably more times that I don't know about. I guess the Vienna video on YouTube might be the best sounding of it. I wish he did it once pro-shot.

The demo verse was done 4 times off the top of my head. New York, Hong Kong, Vienna, and Silver Spring as part of Lift Off.

Oh yeah it makes sense, didnt think of the Sorry For Now/Lift Off version, you guys are right.

What is the highest quality available for this demo verse? Like minimal crowd noise and clear sound? Can someone help me out?

Considering its only been performed once in June 20, 2018 I doubt there is a good quality version of it, i mean there are a few videos on youtube none of witch has good quality. Im sure if Mike performs it some more times, higher quality videos will appear. Then some people will "remix" the demo verse with the original song which will provide an even better outcome since they will remove the noise and everything. Its been done before for lots of LP songs by certain people on Youtube so im sure it will happen again if they get their hands in a better quality audio of the verse. But for now your best shot are some youtube videos of that one show which to be honest arent of great quality.

You are right and wrong at the same time.

The thing is, some of these indeed sounds a lot like they were INTENDED to be Linkin Park demos.

However we all know that a huge amount of the very early demos of any song is just some productions of Mike.

So yes they could have been intended for LP, Mike played the demos to the rest of the guys, they didn't like em, Mike used for VMA Score 2005.

But even if they were originally intended for LP I'm sure the demos are 100% Mike and they didn't even make it to been made in a proper demo, have some vocals recorded or something.

This doesnt really work for me. I change it but it still only does "Any of my search term words".

EDIT: this is prabobly a fake.

All the "clues" strongly point to that direction, its just been out for so long that I thought it's worth mentioning since there are literally no info about the track.

Mostly to finally ease my mind, I mean im curious about this since the song first came out, but I'm 99% certain its fake.

The picture of Mike on video chat with Kai is photoshopped from this Instagram live video (it's literally just a mirror-flipped version of the video thumbnail):

Kai's as big of a troll as I've ever seen. I wouldn't be surprised if this isn't the only fake feature he's used to promote himself.

Damn, I was so sure that I'd seen Mike like that before but I was uncertain.
I mean this clears it up a lot, Im 99% certain that its fake. I'll look a little bit more into it though, if any updates Ill post here.
Doing "fake" feats for a little clout is so pathetic and sad, Im sorry for the guy really.
Thanks anyway, you know that I love some Linkin Park digging like u do.

A couple of tweets about Mike:

Found this but couldn't really find the source:

https://www.londoninstereo.com/kai-whiston-in-five/

I was aware of the tweets and the reddit post (asked for source but never got a reply).

However it seems like the reddit account is actually Kai's, I'm pretty confident about that.

Which makes all the sources, of saying this is official, actually being Kai.
Except the article which just mentions it but its according to Kai's claims once again.
I'm not sure if Kai is trustworthy, I mean he is not an established artist or anything.
Plus if Mike made a song with him to help him as an upcoming artist why wouldn't he post about it?
I'm really sceptical about if this is legit. Some research needs to be done here.

Anyone has ANY info on this track? any info would be helpful
Ik its been out long but ive been forgetting to ask and was hoping some info would come out but nothing.

As far as my research goes it hasnt either been confirmed nor rejected that this is an official feat.

Im pretty sure if it is indeed an official feat, Mike hasnt contributed any clean vocals, some instruments possibly.

How do we start searching for it? Obviously it was available to find through like Google or something it would have been found by now. The company who produced the show probably have it and cut it down for the episode, naturally. Other than that, I'm not sure how it would be found. The band themselves probably sent the company who produced the song themselves since it has to hail from 1998 (unless it was from January/February of 1999 since Chester joined in March of 1999). So the only people I see having the track or obviously the band themselves and whatever company produced the show.

We are aware, we are taking the “company produced the show” approach but in a much more massive way. If you are interested PM to talk about you joining the team.

The version of Rhinestone featured in The Crow TV show sounded so good based off of the clip that we have. It was pretty high quality, it wasn't like the cassette version (obviously). Almost sounded like it had the same quality as ''Fiends'' which of course features Mark Wakefield very clearly. I wish we could somehow get it. I can join the hunt and try to search but I don't think I'll be of much help with it since I don't have money to give or anything. Would love to hear it though. Also I agree about Fiends being an epic song. I honestly don't listen to the other two Rapology songs but Fiends is really cool.

You really dont need any money to join the search xD all you need to give is some free time  Yeah this version is a higher quality version, everything must had been re-recorded for that version, its post-xero tape so they had equipment and everything. I love Fiends too its a one of a kind song. If you are interested and have some time to spare for this project let me know

if you would explain to me how does this work, I think I could help you! count me in

The main idea for the Rhinestone project is to contact people that worked in the series and had access to the song. There is already a list of names and contact info. The goal is to contact those people get any info we can and also expand the list. The team also works in other LP realted stuff from time to time and is pretty open if you have any other ideas or other things to look for.
