Mike Shinoda (top), Skylar Grey (middle) and Jonah Matranga (bottom) were the vocalists of "Where'd You Go".

"Where'd You Go" was written and produced by Mike Shinoda. "Where'd You Go" is an alternative hip hop song that features a piano-based hook, [1] as well as a choir singing background vocals throughout the song. [2] According to the digital music sheet published at musicnotes.com, the song is written in the key of E major, [3] is it built of the chord progression E- B- C♯m- A, is set in time signature of common time with a tempo of 90 beats per minute and is set in simple time. [4] Brook and Matranga's vocal ranges span from the low note of B 3 to the high note of B4. [4]

Shinoda wrote the song from the perspective of a person whose lover is always traveling. [5] [6] In an interview with MTV, Shinoda stated why he chose to write from that point of view, saying "A lot of people do songs about being on the road, and I wanted to do this song about the opposite perspective: the people who are at home, your family, your friends, your loved ones who are at home." [7] Shinoda also said that he wrote the song for his wife, Anna. [7] When consulting executive producer and rapper Jay-Z and Linkin Park guitarist and Machine Shop A&R Brad Delson on which songs should be included in The Rising Tied, "Where'd You Go" is one of two songs that he requested not to remove from the album, since the song drives his wife to tears every time she listens to it. [5]

Holly Brook (who was signed to Shinoda's record label Machine Shop Recordings) and Jonah Matranga were featured artists of the song. [8] Shinoda requested Brook to sing the chorus, since Shinoda had already written the entire song. Brook recorded the song for half an hour. [7] Shinoda praised her vocals, calling her voice as "unbelievable." [5] Shinoda affirmed the Brook's musical style "really rooted in the songwriting...You don't need all the frills and the production. You can put her on a $50 mic in a room and she sounds just like the record because the talent is really there. A lot of artists rely on tricks to make their stuff sound a certain way, but we all appreciate the rawness of what she does." [7]

Shinoda stated that "Where'd You Go" was a possible single candidate at the time of the album's release. [5] The song was released as the fourth and final single from The Rising Tied on April 14, 2006, as a digital download. [9]

"Where'd You Go" received generally positive reviews from music critics. Bill Lamb of About.com commended the song's simplicity, saying that it will "draw pop and hip hop fans together with its universal emotional appeal." [1] Spence D. of IGN noted that "Where'd You Go" is "the only genuine lament on [The Rising Tied]." [10] A reviewer for Mote described the song as having "good production, a good (if a little overused) hook, and a guy with good and strangely familiar flow," buying The Rising Tied after listening to the song. [11] Jo Timbuong of The Star compared "Where'd You Go" with Eminem's "When I'm Gone", except for a "more melancholic feel" through Brook's vocals. [12] Alec Luhn of The Badger Herald compared Brook's vocals to British female singer Dido from the Eminem song "Stan".

Background and synopsis

The music video for "Where'd You Go" was directed by Philip Andelman. [26] It features interviews with three different families: a little boy, who has divorced parents and has to undertake numerous chores; the wife of a baseball player Jason Bulger caring for their children; and the parents of a soldier in Iraq. Shinoda is seen rapping in the aforementioned families' homes, Matranga sings the chorus from a car, and Brook sings from a dining room. The scenes where the three vocalists sing also shifts to shots of the families' belongings, homes and neighborhoods. At the end of the video, a brief note by Shinoda states:

"Where'd You Go" was filmed in the homes of three families who share the same sense of loneliness as this song. Thank you for sharing your homes and stories with us.

The video achieved popularity on MTV, and reached No. 1 on Total Request Live . [6]

MTV contest

In June through July 2006, Shinoda, in association with MTV's Overdrive hosted a contest where US residents of 18 years or older could recreate a new version of the song's music video. The winner of the contest would win a sketch painting by Shinoda that was included in the album's art. [27] [28] On July 31, 2006, the winner was announced. The winning video was directed by David Ly, a graduate film student at Art Center College of Design. [29]

Synopsis

The remake version of the video is about a person who loses touch with himself. Originally full of life, the protagonist becomes a robot working a monotonous office job. One morning, he wakes up from a dream of a beautiful girl dressed in white on the beach. He leaves for work, and his buried alter egos, dressed in white shirts, black slacks, assorted ties and each holding either red or white roses, emerge mysteriously. At work, his boss gives him a stack of paperwork, which he does mechanically. Meanwhile, at home, the alter egos are in a circle around his coffee table, throw the roses in the center, and leave. Back at work, he prepares to go home, but is then given another stack of documents. His frustrations boil over, and he throws his tie at his boss. He runs home not knowing what he is running for, and at the moment that he walks in the door, the last of the alter egos exits. He finds a white box that replaced his coffee table and is intrigued. He unwraps the red and white ribbons and opens the box to find himself on the beach with the same girl in his dream and the roses on the water. [29]

[34]
