"And One" was one of three songs co-produced and mixed by Mudrock and Mike Shinoda for the ''[[Hybrid Theory EP]]''. The song was written by Mike Shinoda, Joe Hahn, Brad Delson, Chester Bennington, and Rob Bourdon. Kyle Christener is credited for bass on the original EP but his name was removed from subsequent issues. This happened because his bass tracks weren't used in the EP.<ref name="HybridOrigins">[https://lplive.net/interviews/hybridorigins/ Hybrid Origins: A Look Back At The Early Days - Linkin Park Live], June 2021</ref>

After the original release of the EP, Linkin Park continued working on "And One" for inclusion on their debut studio album, ''[[Hybrid Theory]]'', but it didn't make it to the final tracklist. The song appeared on two demo CDs, the ''[[Hybrid Theory 8-Track Demo]]'' from January 2000 and ''[[Linkin Park - Demos From 02-2000]]'' from February 2000. However, neither CD contains the version of the song that Linkin Park performed live (for more information, see "Live" below.) While "[[Carousel]]" and "[[Part Of Me]]" both went through changes on their studio versions, there is no evidence to date that Linkin Park ever recorded the "live version" of "And One" in studio.

The song was recorded in the studio sessions for the debut album. In Jeff Blue's book ''"One Step Closer: From Xero to #1: Becoming Linkin Park"'', he explained that recording for ''[[Hybrid Theory]]'' began on March 7, 2000 at NRG Studios. Rob's drum tracking began on March 14 and he tracked drums for "And One" that day.<ref>Blue, Jeff (2020). ''[[One Step Closer: From Xero to #1: Becoming Linkin Park]]''. Permuted Press.

Being one of the band's oldest song, it is likely that the band performed this song during the time in which they were Hybrid Theory. During a Reddit AMA with Mike in August of 2014, he claimed: ''"We played those songs [from the ''Hybrid Theory EP''] a ton when the band name was "Hybrid Theory," and once we had a whole album to play, those kinda just went away."'' "And One" is on the earliest known setlists, being performed mid-set throughout 2000.

"And One" was one of three songs co-produced and mixed by Mudrock and Mike Shinoda for the Hybrid Theory EP. The song was written by Mike Shinoda, Joe Hahn, Brad Delson, Chester Bennington, and Rob Bourdon. Kyle Christener is credited for bass on the original EP but his name was removed from subsequent issues. This happened because his bass tracks weren't used in the EP.[1]

Background

When performing the song live in 2000 and 2001, Linkin Park would mention that "And One" was the very first song they wrote with Chester.[2] Phoenix said that "And One" was a basketball reference - it was the working title of the track and it stuck. Joe replied that it was a shoe brand (spelled "AND1"), implying that was the origin of the song's title, as well as a basketball league.[3] During an interview to LPLive, Rob McDermott, the band's first manager, read the tracklist of an early Hybrid Theory EP which consisted of "Esaul", "Cure For Mr. Hahn's Itch", "High Voltage", "By Myself", "Kids", "And One" and "And Two". He explained that "And Two" was "the outro of it."[4]

After the original release of the EP, Linkin Park continued working on "And One" for inclusion on their debut studio album, Hybrid Theory, but it didn't make it to the final tracklist. The song appeared on two demo CDs, the Hybrid Theory 8-Track Demo from January 2000 and Linkin Park - Demos From 02-2000 from February 2000. However, neither CD contains the version of the song that Linkin Park performed live (for more information, see "Live" below.) While "Carousel" and "Part Of Me" both went through changes on their studio versions, there is no evidence to date that Linkin Park ever recorded the "live version" of "And One" in studio.

The song was recorded in the studio sessions for the debut album. In Jeff Blue's book "One Step Closer: From Xero to #1: Becoming Linkin Park", he explained that recording for Hybrid Theory began on March 7, 2000 at NRG Studios. Rob's drum tracking began on March 14 and he tracked drums for "And One" that day.[5]

Meme

On March 24, 2020, Linkin Park (Mike, Dave, and Joe) reacted to the (previously unreleased) San Diego 2001 show stream on YouTube.[6] When the performance of "And One" happened, all three band members did not know the name of the song and spent the next few minutes guessing at what it could be. Due to Dave asking, "Is this Carousel?", the phrase instantly became a sensational meme for Linkin Park fans. Due to this, on April 20, 2020 when the individual songs were being uploaded to YouTube, Linkin Park promoted the "And One" video on social media by saying, "Is This Carousel?
