It had its first radio play on April 1, 2007, and was digitally released on April 2, 2007. The CD Single will be released on April 30, 2007.Joe (Hahn) came up to Mike and me and asked us to take the whole idea of Minutes to Midnight and apply that to how the band has changed. So, in a way, it's us saying goodbye to how we used to be...The lyrics in the first verse are 'In this farewell, there's no blood, there's no alibi,' and right away, you'll notice that the band sounds different: The drums are much more raw, the guitars are more raw and the vocals aren't tripled. It's just us out there ... and that's how Rick wanted it.—Chester Bennington, March 2007The single and video appeared in the iTunes Store shortly after midnight EST on April 2, 2007.[3] It became available the day after on iTunes in the UK and Australia. On April 2nd, the song was featured streaming on the front page of their official website, with the video being added to the site shortly thereafter. This song differs from most of Linkin Park's previously released songs in that it features almost no lead vocals from vocalist Mike Shinoda, save for a brief refrain at the end and contributing harmonies throughout. This fact runs in harmony with the fact that the band has changed much of their sound with the new album. This song in particular is not as harsh as in Chester's vocals, compared to their other work on previous albums. "What I've Done" is reportedly the last song that was written for Minutes to Midnight.DJ Joe Hahn of the band directed the video for the single, which was shot in the California desert.[5] The video premiered on April 2, 2007 on MTV and Fuse. It premiered on MTV-Asia, MTV-Germany, and Canada's MuchMusic on April 3, 2007. It features the band performing in the desert, while reflecting on a variety of social issues including stem cell research, pollution, global warming, racism, Nazism, famine, wars, deforestation, drug addiction, destruction and other crimes committed by humanity. The video is available for public viewing via the band's YouTube Account.The video clip was featured on MTV's Battle of the Videos against videos by Evanescence and Lil' Mama.The song made big debuts on the US charts during the chart week of 04-21-07. The song debuted in the top 10 of the US Hot 100, at #7. It is by far the band's highest debut to date on the chart (this title was previously held by Somewhere I Belong which opened at #47), earning "Hot Shot" debut of the week, and already becoming the second highest position for a Linkin Park single to date on the Hot 100. It is also only the eleventh song since 2000 to debut at #7 or higher on the Hot 100, and only the third song to do so by an artist not from American Idol. [1] The song was partly fueled by digital sales, debuting at #4 on the digital chart. In addition the song impressively became only the third song ever to open at #1 on the Modern Rock chart, also becoming the band's seventh number one on the chart.CODE<a href="http://rapidshare.com/files/24067880/01-Linkin_Park_-_What_I_ve_Don1e.mp3" target="_blank">http://rapidshare.com/files/24067880/01-Linkin_Park_-_What_I_ve_Don1e.mp3</a><a href="http://www.megaupload.com/?d=EGJNKN05" target="_blank">http://www.megaupload.com/?d=EGJNKN05</a></blockquote>
