This last year really was massive for LP fans. We have been so blessed and nobody saw that only a year after lost we'd continue getting new LP music. I don't care what Era they throw at us, or in this case, all at once with the greatest hits, as long as we have more new LP music for years to come.

I want to clarify why i don't like Alits. It's a great track instrumentally, the thing that made me hate it was Chester's vocals... and the lack of melody and even mixing in his voice. It sounds like Chester was just yelling at the mic rather than singing with aggression. The melody used is a bit too static or underwhelming, not sure how to describe it. It feels like the instrumental and even Mike's rap part and singing are all great moments paired with something so lack luster, like a missed opportunity by Chester just like Drawbar was with Tom, you know to really shine their best on such a track. So, really i blame Chester's parts or whoever wrote them (mike prob, or somebody enlighten me here). If Chaz had sung something more melodically catchy while still keeping that aggression, we all know and love, this would hae been my favorite song on the album easily. I guess i was just dissapointed overall. If someone else's ears picks up the complete opposite, then I envy you lol. Wish i could hear it the same but i don't.

For me, it came out when I was a junior in high school and at that time, metal was my favorite genre of music so THP really satisfied my cravings for heavy music and for LP to return to some familiar territory. It’s got some incredible moments on it. I only skip over War, and A line in the sand, those songs are boring.

I’m wondering if track 14 is indeed a THP b side because there isn’t a track from that album anywhere else on the list. That would be a neat way to fill that void for those fans who aren’t happy with the fact there’s no THP on the album. I also think at least one single deserved a slot.

It only took 2 listens to fall in love with it. It's actually giving me slight ''What Are You Worth'' Vibes, especially in the instrumental, but with Chester on vocals instead. It has the really big wall of sound approach that WAYW also has. I hate that they cut both of those songs because OML could have used some louder Anthem like tracks to add variety to the overall pop sound.

I have no clue why they cut healing foot. It's now one of my most favorite LP songs because it's somewhat reminiscent of in the end in the rap verses with how they mixed Mike's voice while his flow is so addictive and catchy, but then Chesters vocal melody and lyrics in the chorus sound so Meteora-esque and massive. That entire song also sounds so heavy while still remaining melodic and fragile to some degree, which is what they wanted to capture back then. Just the rob drum video we had for years was so repayable and stuck with us hardcore fans for so long, so when the full song released, it was like finally discovering a long-lost secret.

Interesting...i was only guessing, but that's good to know. I can tell I am not the only one who agrees Andy made some questionable mixing decisions on Lost. Because i'm also listening from my home studio speakers and also headphones and the main thing that stuck out to me is that muddy boomy 808 beneath the bass guitar in the chorus, where those frequencies def clash in a not so clean way. Plus, Chester's vocals sometimes sounding a bit buried, but the guitars never bothered me, actually that's why it sounds like Meteora so it never stuck out as too loud to me personally. I grew up with Meteora as well, so we def understand what a 2000's LP era mix sounds like, but in my opinion, this one could have been better by Andy. Maybe he mixed this one last and as a engineer myself, I understand at some point ears get tired and fatigued, but if there's a deadline, we have to keep going. In the new mix, that 808 is still there but it's cleaned up and tucked in with low volume so it doesn't mess with the other low-end frequencies so we can tell it was addressed by Manny.

I agree, i mean it's not terrible, but i believe he only got to a point in the mix and didn't finish it. That's what it sounds like because the rest of Meteora sounds amazing. It's like they decided to cut the track mid mix down because they started to really hear the album come together sonically and at this point they needed to cut some tracks.

He pushed as far as he could go, go easy on him.

I've always wondered this! I was never sure if we ever heard all the 1999-2000's era Hybrid Theory tracks.

🤣🤣🤣

I make my very first Already Over joke and I guess it was the final trigger for you LMAO 😂 Nice to have you back.

Already over (Already Over Version) Length: 0:01

It’s probably just sitting there… waiting to be released like 👁️👄👁️

THIS!! And Mike even mentioned how much Chester loved that song. I remember Mike saying this in either one of his live YouTube sessions or somewhere. I also remember the title ''Painted Me Wrong'' on a sticky note during OML sessions, so I wonder how many finished OML songs didn't make the cut aside from ''Friendly Fire''. I bet it's going to be this song, that's my guess! And probabaly as a single like new divide as someone mentioned previously.

It was fun, @SerioDrew Thanks for inviting me to work on it. The album is incredible.

Im very humbled to be #14 on this list... like this is already a win for me! Congrats to every one else!!!

I'm going to guess the track title is "Painted Me Wrong". Jan. 27th

Thank You!

1. The X-Ecutioners feat. LP is basically the same thing as the longer title but shorter. It really doesn't matter. 2. Thanks for the corrections I corrected what I could.

Thanks so much for that JZE! And damn it... many of the links to the song on the web say it both ways. Fixed. Thanks for that!

Tbh It's just for the title. Never really thought about it. I changed it though for the sake of an honest title so thanks to the both of you for pointing that out! And thanks for the compliment Justin!

I personally loved every second of this cover. I love the sound of your voice, I think it's very interesting and unique and I enjoy the chorus a lot. Mixing is great. Your accent doesn't bother me one bit. Very Solid cover.
