“Castle of Glass” by Linkin Park

"Castle of Glass" was written for Living Things, Linkin Park's fifth album, in 2012, and it picked up a second job as a promotional single for Medal of Honor: Warfighter, the Danger Close Games release from that year, just as "The Catalyst" had served the band's earlier Medal of Honor tie-in.

Mike Shinoda is all over it. He co-produced it with Rick Rubin, shares the vocals and the lyrics with Chester Bennington, and is credited with strings and horn, while the music is credited to the whole band. Manny Marroquin mixed it, with Delbert Bowers and Chris Galland assisting. As a single it followed "Lost in the Echo" and was followed by "Powerless", and a Shinoda remix later turned up on the remix album Recharged and in the game Need for Speed Rivals.
