"Given Up" is a song by American rock band Linkin Park. The song was released as the fourth single from their third studio album, Minutes to Midnight. It was released on February 17, 2008 in the UK as a digital download. The song was not as much of a success as what was expected in the US, although it did manage to chart high on the Alternative Songs music chart. Chester Bennington's ability to hold a note (a fry-screamed D5-B4) for 17 seconds (2:27-2:44) is considered the highlight of the song.
