It was released as the first single from their third studio album ''Minutes to Midnight'' (2007). The song is composed in the key of G minor and is set in 4/4 time. The song was released as a radio single on April 1, 2007, as a digital download on April 2, and as a CD single on April 30. The live version of "What I've Done" from ''Road to Revolution: Live at Milton Keynes'' was nominated for ''Best Hard Rock Performance'' at the 52nd Grammy Awards, but did not win.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Nominees And Winners | GRAMMY.com )〕 It also serves as the main theme of the 2007 science fiction film ''Transformers'' and also appears on ''Transformers: The Album'' (2007). Being certified three times platinum by the RIAA, it is the band's most commercially successful song, though not necessarily most well-known. "What I've Done" was featured in the video game ''Guitar Hero World Tour''. In January 2011, it was released in a Linkin Park DLC pack for ''Rock Band 3'', along with a PRO mode update, which allows use of real instruments such as guitar, keyboards and electronic drumkits. The song is also a b-side to the UK single of "Iridescent". An instrumental version of the song is currently used by Sky as background music for their interactive services. ==Composition== Chester Bennington described the track in a March 2007 interview with MTV: The single and video appeared in the iTunes Store shortly after midnight EST on April 2, 2007. It became available the day after on iTunes in the UK and Australia. On April 2, the song was featured streaming on the front page of their official website, with the video being added to the site shortly thereafter. The song starts out with a short 3-second guitar part and then a piano motif, before adding a hip hop-inspired drum line, and then introducing a raw-sounding guitar riff. When the song is played live at Linkin Park's concerts, Mike Shinoda plays the piano intro and the guitar after that. This song differs from most of Linkin Park's songs from previous albums in that it features almost no lead vocals from vocalist Mike Shinoda, with the exception of a brief "na na na" refrain at the end. "What I've Done" was the last song written for ''Minutes to Midnight''.〔(LP Times ) reports on "What I've Done".〕 The song also has a downbeat exactly once every second, consistent throughout its entirety. Mike Shinoda created a remix of the song, which is called "What I've Done (Distorted Remix)", which is included as a b-side to "Bleed It Out". The remix was then included in the international tour edition of ''Minutes to Midnight'', as well as a track in the Linkin Park Underground-exclusive CD ''Underground X: Demos''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Home : Linkin Park )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「What I've Done」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
