That 17 second scream is (in my opinion) the ultimate example of how talented Chester was.

[@nyannaaung2544]

Pure emotion and energy in that scream. Gives me goosebumps everytime.

[@marcbarantes7342]

[@hfestag]

It wasn't the scream that shows his talent. It was being able to do that then turn around and sing the softest notes you would think angel would sing.

[@nero8041]

fry scream doesn't take much air

[@hfestag]

@@nero8041 but it strains your vocal cords and switching from a low note from the scream to the higher notes of the singing takes talent. Have you ever tried to scream that long then turn around and sing soft notes right after? It takes major talent.

I remember when Chester passed, some people said “wow that was unexpected, nobody saw this coming”. Honestly, how blind can you be 🫠 It’s literally right there in the lyrics. He shouted it to millions of people. If he can’t be heard, how do normal folks get heard?

[@trafmuc]

yeah my mom and I have been well aware of his pain, it definitely took me growing up to fully realize and understand these older works.

As someone who had an episode of reactive depression after a friend's suicide, I understand what Chester was getting at. Sadly, many people with depression are good at keeping it to themselves. Even when they speak out, as Chester did, others often don't know what to do and how they can help. Also, people rarely think the depressed person will kill himself or herself. It's the whole that only happens to other people thing. Thank you, Chester. You screamed for me when I couldn't and helped me feel less alone. You are missed.

Looking back on Chesters death this song really stands out. Growing up listening to this thinking it was just hardcore. No, it was how he felt up until the end. This is how depression feels. His long scream in this song is possible partially because it’s him letting it out what he can’t express. Powerful stuff man. Rip legend.

All these songs were written as cry for help

[@DrummerJim107]

Also, even though it's not easy to do, any skilled vocalist will be capable of holding a note or tone up to at least 20 seconds in one breath.

A song so deep, this song tells the story of a person who is constantly depressed. (Of course you know what depression is) In the lyrics of this song, the writer (Chester Bennington) tries to explain that he has to struggle with himself, and fight himself because of the depression he is experiencing. Because he was so tired and hopeless of it all that he wanted to give up.

It's funny, Mike Shinoda is listed for writing this one and the scream was Chester's spontaneous addition because he didn't know the length of which to hold it. It wasn't just Chester with depression and you don't have to be suffering with it at that point or so unmistakably to write about it...
