The limited edition booklet for ''Minutes To Midnight'' provided some insight into the song's creation. "''While the band was recording at the Laurel studio, Rick suggested that Brad try adding ebow to “[[The Little Things Give You Away]].” The ebow is a hand-held device that vibrates guitar strings by generating an electric pulse.

Originally titled “Ebow Idea,” “No More Sorrow” was loosely constructed that same night, though the band went back and cut the song live on their last day at Laurel.''" Chester Bennington cited "No More Sorrow" as an example of the depth that could be found on ''Minutes To Midnight'', and Rob Bourdon called it the heaviest song on the album.<ref>[http://smg.photobucket.com/user/JJ79/media/Untitled-3-1.jpg.html Kerrang!], April 2007</ref>

In the [[Making of Minutes To Midnight]] DVD, there is a scene near the end that shows Linkin Park finishing the album at NRG, the studio in North Hollywood, CA where a majority of their music was recorded. Mike and Chester explain that the inside joke with the band was that someone would say the album was finally completed by announcing "...and we're done!" before then having someone record another part. The DVD shows Mike explaining that after Chester had left the studio for the day, Mike noticed that just one word was not doubled on a vocal take and that he couldn't just copy it over on the computer from another take. He had to call Chester to come back to the studio to record the one word, which ended up being the very end of "No More Sorrow." Chester joked that he wouldn't believe the album was fully completed until he could buy it in a store. This was the last part of the album recorded by the band before the strings were recorded, until they decided to write "]]What I've Done]]".
The April 2007 issue of a French magazine published a track by track of ''Minutes To Midnight'' on which Chester said (loosely translated from English to French and back to English), ''"The guitar part is very powerful. There is a sample of my authorship in the texture of the song. In our studio, the ventilation system once broke down, I decided to take a flashlight and look inside the pipe. The flashlight clung to the edges of the hole in the pipe, like the blows of swords. Mike wanted to sample this sound in the song."''<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20070526181938/http://lprussia.com/index.php?page=dedication&id=articles&this_id=m2mtracklist-fr LPRussia.com ~ Первый о Linkin Park ~ wap.LPRussia.com], April 22, 2007</ref>


In a Facebook chat in 2013, Bourdon stated that "No More Sorrow" is his second favorite song to play live, behind "[[Somewhere I Belong]]".<ref>[https://www.facebook.com/plugins/comment_embed.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FlinkinPark%2Fposts%2F10152092878461788%3Fcomment_id%3D10152092879291788%26reply_comment_id%3D10152092894096788&include_parent=false Facebook], December 2013</ref>

"No More Sorrow" was a major part of the ''Minutes To Midnight'' touring cycle setlists. Both this song and "Given Up" were performed under their working titles during band rehearsals in March 2007, "No More Sorrow" being performed as "Ebow". It was the first song to get its live debut from the album, it being the first new song in the setlist at the first show in the cycle at [http://lplive.net/shows/db/2007/20070428 Berlin, Germany] ("Given Up" and "What I've Done" were also debuted live at that show, but came after "No More Sorrow"). For much of the promotional touring in Europe, "No More Sorrow" was featured near the beginning of the set. Starting at the show in [http://lplive.net/shows/db/2007/20070602 Rock im Park], Brad began to perform an extended guitar intro tease to the song at various shows. When the band began rotating setlists on Projekt Revolution 2007, "No More Sorrow" was featured early in the set with a short intro in Set A and Set C, and opened the show with a longer version of the intro in Set B. The band created new setlists in the winter of 2008, with "No More Sorrow" being featured as the opener of Set R with its long intro, early in the set with its long intro in Set S, and with a short intro transitioning out of "[[Faint]]" in Set T. Near the end of the ''Minutes To Midnight'' North American Tour, the song was dropped from a few setlists due to Chester being sick. The song did return by the end of the tour, however. The band introduced more new setlists on the second ''Minutes To Midnight'' European Tour that year, with the song being featured early on in Set X with its long intro, early in Set Y with its short intro transitioning out of "Faint", and opening the show in Set Z. On Projekt Revolution, the song's position stayed the same but featured the Street Drum Corps on the song during performances of Set Z. The song was performed early in the set with its long intro throughout 2009.

The song did not make it into any setlists on the ''[[Living Things]]'' touring cycle, but returned briefly during ''[[The Hunting Party]]'' touring cycle, where its guitar intro was featured in the extended intro for "[[Until It's Gone]]" on the European Festival tour in 2014. The intro was dropped on subsequent tours, meaning "No More Sorrow" did not make any other appearances on the tour. The song was rehearsed for the Carnivores Tour, but did not make it into the setlists.

"No More Sorrow" is the eighth track off of Linkin Park's third studio album, Minutes To Midnight.

Background

The limited edition booklet for Minutes To Midnight provided some insight into the song's creation. "While the band was recording at the Laurel studio, Rick suggested that Brad try adding ebow to “The Little Things Give You Away.” The ebow is a hand-held device that vibrates guitar strings by generating an electric pulse. Although Brad ultimately decided not to add ebow to “The Little Things,” his experimentation produced the introductory sound around which “No More Sorrow” was built. Originally titled “Ebow Idea,” “No More Sorrow” was loosely constructed that same night, though the band went back and cut the song live on their last day at Laurel." Chester Bennington cited "No More Sorrow" as an example of the depth that could be found on Minutes To Midnight, and Rob Bourdon called it the heaviest song on the album.[1][2]

The April 2007 issue of a French magazine published a track by track of Minutes To Midnight on which Chester said (loosely translated from English to French and back to English), "The guitar part is very powerful. There is a sample of my authorship in the texture of the song. In our studio, the ventilation system once broke down, I decided to take a flashlight and look inside the pipe. The flashlight clung to the edges of the hole in the pipe, like the blows of swords. Mike wanted to sample this sound in the song."[3]

In the Making of Minutes To Midnight DVD, there is a scene near the end that shows Linkin Park finishing the album at NRG, the studio in North Hollywood, CA where a majority of their music was recorded. Mike and Chester explain that the inside joke with the band was that someone would say the album was finally completed by announcing "...and we're done!" before then having someone record another part. The DVD shows Mike explaining that after Chester had left the studio for the day, Mike noticed that just one word was not doubled on a vocal take and that he couldn't just copy it over on the computer from another take. He had to call Chester to come back to the studio to record the one word, which ended up being the very end of "No More Sorrow." Chester joked that he wouldn't believe the album was fully completed until he could buy it in a store. This was the last part of the album recorded by the band before the strings were recorded, until they decided to write "What I've Done".[4]

For much of the promotional touring in Europe, "No More Sorrow" was featured near the beginning of the set. Starting at the show in Rock im Park, Brad began to perform an extended guitar intro tease to the song at various shows. When the band began rotating setlists on Projekt Revolution 2007, "No More Sorrow" was featured early in the set with a short intro in Set A and Set C, and opened the show with a longer version of the intro in Set B. The band created new setlists in the winter of 2008, with "No More Sorrow" being featured as the opener of Set R with its long intro, early in the set with its long intro in Set S, and with a short intro transitioning out of "Faint" in Set T. Near the end of the Minutes To Midnight North American Tour, the song was dropped from a few setlists due to Chester being sick. The song did return by the end of the tour, however. The band introduced more new setlists on the second Minutes To Midnight European Tour that year, with the song being featured early on in Set X with its long intro, early in Set Y with its short intro transitioning out of "Faint", and opening the show in Set Z. On Projekt Revolution, the song's position stayed the same but featured the Street Drum Corps on the song during performances of Set Z. The song was performed early in the set with its long intro throughout 2009.

The song was the only non-single from Minutes To Midnight to return to live sets during the A Thousand Suns touring cycle. The song was featured mid-set with its long intro throughout the entire cycle. Along with "One Step Closer", "Crawling", and "Given Up", the song was dropped at the band's performance at the MTV Europe Music Awards, but was featured in every other setlist of the cycle.

The song did not make it into any setlists on the Living Things touring cycle, but returned briefly during The Hunting Party touring cycle, where its guitar intro was featured in the extended intro for "Until It's Gone" on the European Festival tour in 2014. The intro was dropped on subsequent tours, meaning "No More Sorrow" did not make any other appearances on the tour. The song was rehearsed for the Carnivores Tour, but did not make it into the setlists.

In a Facebook chat in 2013, Bourdon stated that "No More Sorrow" is his second favorite song to play live, behind "Somewhere I Belong".[5]

Lyrics

Album Version

Are you lost / In your lies
Do you tell to yourself I don't realize
Your crusade's a disguise
Replaced freedom with fear / You trade money for lives
I'm aware of what you've done

No / no more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes
Your / Time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced

I see pain / I see need
I see liars and thieves abuse power with greed
I had hope / I believed
But I'm beginning to think that I've been decieved
You will pay for what you've done

No / No more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes
Your / Time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced

Thieves and hypocrites
Thieves and hypocrites
Thieves and hypocrites

No / No more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes
Your / Time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced

No more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes
Your / Time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced
Your time has come to be replaced
Your time has come to be erased
