"What I've Done" is the lead single from Linkin Park's upcoming third album Minutes to Midnight. It is scheduled for radio/digital release on April 2, 2007 and CD Single release on April 30, 2007.

In an interview with MTV, Chester Bennington said that the song would be different from previous Linkin Park songs, stating, "The drums are much more raw, the guitars are more raw and the vocals aren't tripled. It's just us out there ... and that's how Rick wanted it." Bennington also revealed the first line of the song, "In this farewell, there is no blood, there is no alibi".

Verizon Wireless has a clip of "What I've Done" on their ringtones page. Linkin Park's official website has a preview of the song's intro on the site's countdown page for Minutes to Midnight. This small intro preview is also heard on Linkin Park's Official MySpace page.

The single cover was leaked from the Warner Music Germany page on Linkin Park.
Yet another clip of the song was found on another ringtone website.

Music video

DJ Joe Hahn of the band directed the video for the single, which was shot in the California desert. The video is expected to be released on April 2nd.
