"I'll Be Gone" is a song by American

KROQ on December 5, 2012.[1]

Composition

"I'll Be Gone" has been said to leave the listener with dampened spirits due to the depressive feel of the track.

On November 14, 2013, Linkin Park released an old demo of "I'll Be Gone", titled "Primo (I'll Be Gone - Longform 2010 Demo)", on their official Tumblr page as part of a promotion for their collection of songs for their fan club, the

LP Underground XIII
album.

Recharged
.

Schoolboy remix

"I'll Be Gone (Schoolboy remix)" is another remix of the original song and is the twelfth track of Recharged. The track features a collaboration of singing and rapping. Bennington's vocals from the original track, minus the bridge, are still there, only with a verse from Pusha T and a brand new verse from Mike Shinoda (with his Fort Minor experience again) after the first bass drop. There is inclusion of rapped verses from Pusha T and Shinoda.

The song was uploaded on YouTube by the band on their official channel on the day of release with the streaming of it on Tumblr.[7]

The Hype Machine gave the remix the peak position for the most popular music at Twitter: "Hot tracks on twitter in 3 days." This was tweeted by Shinoda on October 23, 2013.[8]

Reception

Loudwire says that the group shines on "I'll Be Gone" and says it shows "a duality in the lyrics that could be applied both to a personal relationship or our own imprint on the world we leave after we’ve left this mortal coil." and asks, "With lyrics like 'Let the sun fade out and another one rise, I’ll be gone,' are Linkin Park getting their darkest before the next day dawns?"[9]
