The music video, which features footage of the band performing at various places and rehearsing,[7][8] was edited and directed by Mark Fiore.[8] It was released several hours before Chester Bennington was confirmed dead.[9]

The music video reached over 10.1 million views on YouTube in one day, making it one of the most viewed online video in the first 24 hours.[10] The official video uploaded to Linkin Park's YouTube channel on July 20, 2017 was shorter than the previously released audio-only video and the video released to other sites such as Vevo;[11] it was later fixed to play the full song, with the last shot being of Bennington in a vehicle looking out at a window.

As of November 2021, the song has 140 million views on YouTube.


Critical reception


The song received mixed reviews from critics. Ian Gittins of The Guardian called it "a sleek Justin Bieber-style pop-R&B nugget".[5] Allison Stewart of The Washington Post stated, "the electro-poppy 'Talking to Myself' sounds like the work of a '90s boy band".[3] In a negative review, Anita Bhagwandas of NME commented that the song "is full of unsophisticated hooks and forgettable melodies".[12] Jon Pareles of The New York Times described it as "a pounding plaint about loneliness, alienation and 'all the walls that you keep building.'"[13]
