QWERTY - Linkin Park Bass FC (RB3 Custom) HD Gameplay (Xbox 360)
3My Thoughts On The Song/Chart: A once rarity among the LP fanbase but was finally re-released to the public via streaming via the 2024 compilation album "Papercuts" This song was written during the recording of 2007's "Minutes To Midnight" and is among one of the band's heaviest songs to date.
Despite the song being re-released quite recently as of the recording of this video, this custom is quite old, and a little crusty especially on the Guitar role hence why i chose to do Bass. There doesn't appear to have proper lipsync on this custom either which sadly a lot of LP customs are quite rushed or unfinished even today.
Song Facts:
"QWERTY" is a Linkin Park song debuted on the band's four show trip to Japan in 2006 as a break from the studio when writing Minutes To Midnight.
"QWERTY" is a song recorded in 2006 during the Minutes To Midnight sessions and released on December 5, 2006 as part of the LP Underground 6.0 CD. According to the Songs From The Underground CD credits, Linkin Park recorded the song at both the Korn Studio in summer 2006 and Laurel Canyon Studio with Rick Rubin afterward. The band shifted from pre-production at the Korn Studio to Laurel Canyon sometime just after the Japan 2006 shows in August.
The song is commonly mislabeled as "Behind Your Lies", which is an unofficial fan title given to the song - it has never been referenced by that name by Linkin Park.
No proper music video was ever released for "QWERTY", but an official visualizer was created by Dimitri Thouzery and released on April 12, 2024 at 9pm PT to promote Linkin Park's greatest hits compilation Papercuts and celebrate the song being publicly released on digital streaming for the first time.
The premiere was followed by an YouTube Premium Afterparty titled "QWERTY - BEHIND THE SONG" that features footage directed by and edited by the band's longtime videographer Mark Fiore.
In a December 2006 interview with AOL, Rob said he couldn't wait to perform "QWERTY" live again after debuting it in Japan in 2006. He said, "It's probably the heaviest song we've ever written. And usually those songs tend to be the most fun to play in front of an audience.
