Already Over Sessions - Los Angeles, Oct. 11, 2023
In making "Already Over," I wrote and played all the instruments myself. But to play it live, I loved the idea of playing with a range of talented musicians who were all “locals.”
This is the first and only time we all played together.

In the beginning, it was just Linkin Park... and then in the middle an evolution of sound and rhythm... and at the end of it all, it was collaboration and community. LP has turned into something that transcends just music. It is LOVE for music. Thanks for letting us be a part of that Mike.

Linkin park with Mateus shredding over the top… we don’t deserve such a blessing

[@DarkeniusStorm]

I'm so grateful for Mike for keeping Linkin Park legacy alive.

[@miguelherrera7391]

BROO?? He’s getting so good at singing man!!

[@Luke4207]

Always was

[@Chaotic_evil_duck]

Listen to no roads left and you'll see that he has been for a while

[@volpe_lightsong]

he’s been singing for decades but it’s the CONFIDENCE he has now 🙏

[@miguelherrera7391]

@@Chaotic_evil_duck I know he’s always been, but to see him experimenting with those growls and raspy vocals is something we’d never heard from him and I’m here for it

[@volpe_lightsong]

@@miguelherrera7391 which goes as proof that you can unlock something fresh, new, and powerful in yourself even as a seasoned professional. special moment. this entire (almost) comments section puts me in a better mood tbh 🤫

[@volpe_lightsong]

MORE OF THOSE GROWLS yes 🙌 Extremely proud of how far you’ve come with your vocals, Mike. This was outstanding, quite possibly better than the studio version.

[@migeujoao4937]

Oh yes❤❤❤❤

[@olgameier9056]

agree 💯

[@g.b.174]

Thank you for writing exactly how i was feeling! perfectly said!

Rest In ✌ Chester Bennington

[@E3ek1el0z]

Mike you seem to be one of the greatest musicians and human beings alive. Thank you for letting us participate.

[@reallynow00]

This is called giving back to the community. Most celebrities wouldn't care any less.

[@viralintent42]

YO THIS IS SICK. Bobby and Veda are amazing!

[@victorsarampoi9203]

You can feel the emotion when he played "Faint". As if Chester was there with him...🤟

[@fallonfaessen-nickien5379]

This makes my heart happy. Mike's voice is better than ever. To see him having a blast making his own music, and these collaborations is just awesome. And he's also keeping Linkin Park alive. Hope to see more like this, keep smiling, be proud, keep shining. Thank you is the least i can say 🖤🔥

[@Mrgnome2]

Bobby and Veda were awesome to hear singing live with you, been following them for a while so this was a pleasant surprise, their LP covers are always fantastic.

[@DanielDuctman]

can u tell me her social media?

[@Rusli1659LPSoldier]

that lead guitarist did a great job soloing on extended version of Faint. loved these harmonics. even though, that singer screams during bridge of faint was really REALLY good! i wish i could jam with this song.

[@shudson23]

That lead guitarist is one of the most biggest guitarist of this modern era💀 he has collab with bruno mars, jessie j and few others and even John Mayer is a fan of his work.😅

[@Rusli1659LPSoldier]

@@shudson23 John Mayer actually saw this guy with a cover of his song?

[@MrKeiyaku]

​@@Rusli1659LPSoldiercheck mateus asato

[@Trakasan]

At first I was like... "mh, nobody can replace Chester and the song feels not the same". After a second listening, I love the way Mike performs with news artistes and I love this version. Great vocal performance.

[@Enby_LP_FaN]

Literally same. It's so awesome that he's open to others jamming out and singing Chester's part with him

[@Rusli1659LPSoldier]

me too. it's awesome to see people pay tribute to cover Chester's parts.

[@JN095]

As a brazilian, I'm so proud to see Mateus playing guitar for Mike. 🇧🇷

[@deedee6978]

Bobby and Veda are gold!

[@jeffersonferreira9836]

Toda vez que um brasileiro aparece assim, ele está mostrando a nossa cara e tudo o que temos de melhor. Obrigado, Matheus Asato!

[@renanmoreira8974]

Fala, amigo. Sabe qual é a música que o Mateus tá tocando no final do vídeo?

Um orgulho nacional 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@evgesha05]

Майк Шинода - это целая музыкальная эпоха, целая музыкальная отрасль, музыкальная история. Ты гений, Майк, не устану это повторять. И как же я рада слышать, что помимо твоих новых творений , песни Линкин Парк также продолжают звучать в твоем исполнении.

[@volpe_lightsong]

Верно сказано 🙌

[@AnastasiaGer_russian_girl]

поддерживаю 💜

[@aleshaspb]

И не только в его. Колабы с другими артистами просто кайф! Такое ощущение, что LP вспыхнул как феникс.

[@ForesttLight]

The intro for “Faint” isso f@cking awesome

[@adamn5821]

Some great young musicians and vocalists. What a thrill that has to be for all of them to be playing and singing with the great Mike Shinoda. All of you sounded amazing. Well done ladies and gentlemen. 👍👏🤘

[@orangeblooming]

i started crying at faint's bridge, it was just so good

[@Carolmaldanerteacher]

Mike smiles with the eyes. That’s so nice to see how he loves it. The light in his eyes. ❤

[@nkft1]

BOBBY KILLED IT!!!!! WTFF SO GOOD

[@TheBeast-LPTV]

Omg is that bobbyamaru and his daughter? I love their covers yoo

[@ssmit07]

That was pure Linkin Park energy until the end. Very well done!

[@irfaanfarhat]

FAINT was soooooo goooood by this vocalist. One of the best performances of faint by a non Linkin Park Group!!!

[@f.a.c.guitar3734]

I'm so happy that you keep making music Mike! Linkin Park will be in billions hearts forever ❤

[@angelhoughton9012]

I love seeing you this way Mike still performing live introducing new musicians love you 🖤🖤

[@fr0m_th3_1ns1d3]

these people fucking killed it! would love to see you play with more artists

[@tracyvis5668]

OMG! Bobby and Veda!!! Love them! Mike, you continue to amaze us with your tremendous talent and on top of that you’re such a cool guy!

[@joaocspcosta]

The guy doing Chester voice, Bobby Amaru, not too bad, not too bad at all, and the already over, rock has rock can be, top notch.

[@mahshidnikbin8085]

They just did justice to Faint. Amazing voices, thank you all. And damn, I give everything I have to hear Already Over live.

[@ilgamsultanov9319]

LP fans! this short letter is for all of you: we all still heartbroken and Chester will be forever in our hearts and missed forever. and we all miss the whole Linkin Park. we truly miss all of you! let's show love to all the guys, they all are part of us We miss Mike, we miss Brad, we miss Joe, we miss Rob, we miss Dave, we miss Chester! we miss all of you!

[@JediShoalinVigilante]

We don’t have to miss any of them if we continue to listen to LP songs. Also they are going to keep releasing unreleased stuff. The only change really is that they can’t tour. But other than that and Chester gone there’s not a change.

[@DavidAStubbs]

Thanks man.

[@olgameier9056]

LP Fam ❤ miss they all

[@deancrowder1032]

LOVE THIS GROUP also that father and daughter are also amazing. I follow them! Good people!

[@4thpeverell142]

... Mike can growl now? MIKE CAN GROWL NOW?

[@GabrielMcDowell]

TOUR WHEN?😮‍💨🙏

[@alexngerman]

with one single song? seriously?))

[@swordfish25]

Really cool to see Bobby and his daughter in this. I've seen him sing live with Saliva really awesome show! Super talented!

[@Sergio_LP]

"Bobby Amaru & Veda" - every rocker dad would dream of such a duet with his daughter, "Mateus Asato" - oh, what would happen if LP had a brilliant guitarist, "Morgan F. Kennedy" - sweet, modest, talented bun :), "Nalu The Piano Man" is a talented musician, without a doubt, "mynameisnotdrew" is a positive, eccentric curly-haired guy with a bass guitar, "Nate Mueller" is just a kick drum with wild energy! And they are all gorgeous!

[@AndreasLabrinidis]

So glad to see Bobby and Veda with Mike it was amazing!!!

[@lee.is.here1]

music is amazing in the way that it connects everyone in the same wavelength. you can see the harmony of that in each artist involved in this video. They kept bringing in their own colors. Its like watching a painting become vibrant in more definition of colors. I am happy that I see this today while I am still around.

[@ANDREYALVES]

DO NADA, Mateus Asato tá em todas bicho! O cara é monstro 🔥🔥

[@CapMyAssElmo]

The clapping at the end made me think there was a Given up coming lol, glad to see everyone making music, its what this world needs mike, please never stop.

[@ShahwarSadaf]

HolyyyShtttttt!! Was that Mateus Asato with Mike Shinoda? 😮

[@brunocruzcredooficial]

Nossa a participação de Matheus Asato foi ótima. ele é um puta guitarrista aqui da terra tupiniquim. Muito bom.

[@Laurasanbrunone]

faint is truly beautiful

[@KeithDaviesMusic]

Holy Sh!t.. Everyone here was brilliant. So awesome!

[@robert21122]

Bobby and his daughter nailed it along with the band as well

[@Joker-pz6nr]

Mike Shinoda is the heart and soul to LP band, LP fans, and most of all the music world. What a legend. All of the songs that have been created by Mike Shinoda has and always will be masterpieces. Let's come on strong for 2024. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@huntarasgray]

Out of all three episodes so far this is the best one in my opinion

[@KFMANTIS]

MATHEUS ASATO??? AH NÃO, AGORA VOU TER QUE COMENTAR EM PT-BR.... Sensacional demais, cara!!! Continue postando, pois esse trabalho aí está simplesmente INCRÍVEL!!! 6:17 - Que solo INACREDITÁVEL!!!! AMAZING!!!!

[@KFMANTIS]

@@leandromenezes760 Ele fez o que eu sempre quis ver no LP, SOLO DE GUITARRAAAAA... Simplesmente fantástico. Nosso Orgulho hehehe

[@Teeheehee093]

He has what it takes to be the main singer for LP now They need to ge back together

[@DaP84]

Sure, he could probably make it work. But I'd still really miss Chester's huge dynamics

[@draxforpresident6685]

The vocals are superb, Mike. I understand, now, what you do means with the vocals part.. i'm happy for you. This Episode is great.

[@pike7365]

Bobby and Veda give me goosebumps❤. That Session was amazingSo many good talents and Mike's voice was sooooo dope🔥🔥🔥

[@meicowiedemeier3961]

Mike, I thought I would never say this, but ever since I discovered Bobby and his covers I knew it could happen. No one can ever replace Chester, but Bobby is the only one I could think of who could do Chester justice. Millions of fans out there are waiting for this one farewell tour in honor of Chester. Please make it happen! ❤️🙏🏼

[@christiangorbalan]

FAINT FUE BRUTAL, TODOS ESTUVIERON GENIAL, GRACIAS MIKE😢

[@mikeockler7121]

Mike started clapping at the end and I thought GIVEN UP?!?! But it was not to be haha...honored the MAN beautifully guys, thanks for brightening my day

[@davidhameliii2259]

Goosebumps during the Chester screams in the bridge..if Shinoda could do 1 more tour, with a good supporting artist, they could sell out stadiums.

[@CiofinhoHD]

MIke's vocals have evolved so much WOW

[@Shan_noda]

Mike, it’s so awesome to see how much your vocal confidence has grown over the recent years! You sound great!!❤👏🏻

[@Helenvictory]

This would be the perfect new Linkin Park vocal line up! 🙏 ❤❤❤❤❤

[@b.s.w8295]

I’m just now realizing that mikes been having auditions for a new singer for a lot longer than we think

[@mateusmarques890]

Matheus Asato is one of the best guitarists for me, what an honor he is Brazilian.

[@RexArcum]

YOU THE GRIT IT MIKES VOICE IS UNREAL

[@justinpatrick7899]

Fantastic. Absolutely loved this. Everyone crushed it and it was cool to see Bobby & Veda in there. Please, please release the LP covers on streaming. Both BIO & Faint are so damn good.

[@Hawkcap]

Awesome. Really sounded awesome, specially the guitar solo and Bobby's growling. Veda was also a nice background voice though hearing her only performing as background makes me curious and wanting hear her singing voice in the front. But it was great, even feel like it was slightly better than episode one :p

[@EugeniiDealive]

Майк, твои работы замечательны!, Твоя музыка, группа, организация, всё твоё наследие - всё замечательно!!!!🎉

[@linkinboss2]

That was really good!! I hope if we get another session sometime you reprise Over Again/Papercut from the Post-traumatic tour, that was a killer mashup and it definitively should be recorded in a studio setting!

[@ACrazySpider]

I love this series, its so cool to see the different talents and styles of play and how they all bring their own flavor to the songs. I hope you keep doing this its fantastic.

[@markalfonso3241]

I could literally hear Chester's voice in that outro. He did a pretty good job.

[@flassi]

Bobbys voice is so good and strong, not sure why in this video it was littlebit "quiet"... awesome to see that you have found each other.

[@deinemutter7472]

Omg I’ve never heard him sing like that before! I’m so glad he’s still singing and improving!!

[@mehdihlousse36]

Mike, you're doing a great job, please continue to let us hear your magic, you absolutely have to do a tour, and why not a new album! Faint's adaptation was spectacular! The LP spirit must never die!

[@Camaclism]

I've been listening to LP since they first released hybrid theory when I was 10, they're my favorite band, I've seen them live a handful of times and they always sounded exactly like they did on the CDs live. I love all the different collabs they've done with other popular bands/singers and the way they respect Chester is awesome. Mike has gotten so much better at singing over the years. It's always nice to see their bangers being sung by other bands and singers, specially when they sound like this🤘✌️

[@vivishohe4546]

Ohh man.. the vocalist are top professional singers The vibes all of u kill it lit 🔥 lead guitarist The riff and the slide vibration Was fucking amazing, u nail it

[@staseybro]

Майк не перестает радовать! Как всегда в топе в сердечке ❤

[@jackwardsback]

Awesome vocals on the Faint, Bobby Amaru & Veda really nailed it!

[@igor_misic]

Ok, I get hooked on these episodes. Shout out to Charles (the bassist) for promoting this :)

[@ariftaban3612]

That's the spirit🔥. Mike's always doing something creative. His love of music or whatever is definitely his passion. The people he's working with on this project are just as successful. May your smiles always be so beautiful.
