Limp Bizkit _ Take a Look Around

Famously featured on the Mission: Impossible 2 soundtrack, this song is built around a heavy metal reimagining of Lalo Schifrin’s classic “Mission: Impossible” theme. The lyrics are cynical, urging the listener to look at the “fakes” and the “hate” in the world around them.

The track is masterfully paced, utilizing a quiet-loud dynamic that explodes during the chorus. It was a massive international success, proving that the band could successfully bridge the gap between Hollywood blockbusters and underground metal aggression.
