LINKIN PARK "CRAWLING" REACTION | Asia and BJ

[@dimitardimitrov3698]

"Sings like angel,screaming like devil..." R.I.P. Chester

[@mimiloveee9]

LITERALLY 😭

[@cristiannavarro3764]

Rip Chester

[@mimiloveee9]

EVERY WORD TO EVERY one his songs hurts my soul for him now 😭💔😭💔😭

[@GaParanormal]

Its hard for me to listen most times.....iv been a fan from day one...cried likeca baby wen he died

[@steveparker8065]

Great song and reaction. It really gives insight into Chester's torment, such a shame to lose a gifted artist of such talent.

[@mimiloveee9]

Literally...every lyric hurts my soul for him since his suicide yo 💔😭💔

[@therealcarter1353]

Chester had THAT VOICE that nobody else will ever have 💯💯💯

[@janiemarsh6670]

Fact!!

[@s.a.cmajor5822]

at least not in our lifetime

[@briancoox2412]

maybe chris cornell but thats it i think

[@JamesDombroski-uw1po]

Chino from deftones could scream and sing

[@mimiloveee9]

His lyrics & voice are so powerful yo...such a special soul...breaks my heart 💔

[@tricatel2015]

"One step closer" will always be me favourite LP song to me.

[@wanderlustaesthete4117]

That’s when I first heard them hell yeah 🤘🏽

[@antoineburks2770]

"Lost in the echo" for me

[@Rcurran13]

"His voice...man his voice". Yeah...Chester does that. What a legend, RIP.

[@mikaeljacobsson1437]

I think its important to see the difference between "feeling down" and having "clinical depression". Some stuff cannot just be shaken off. Those inner demons are really complicated.

[@ankh-ef-en-khonsu3274]

yea, this is an important distinction that needs to be made. clinical depression is entirely different and not something you can shrug off. most people don't experience clinical depression. it lasts years and cripples you to the point of suicide if not treated.

[@robertpetre9378]

Clinical depression is not about being afraid of dying it’s about being afraid of living another day I’ve been there it’s horrible

[@angelabordack]

Exactly. Major Depressive Disorder is hell on earth. I feel where Chester is coming from. I am treatment resistant and have been dealing with MDD for over 20 years. It’s a job just to get out of bed every morning. That “demon” is always in your head.

[@jleif7736]

I somewhat disagree, the same things that can get you through feeling down could as well work with clinical depression. It's all up to you whether or not you have the free will. This is coming from a heroin addict, so I had a PhD in utter misery. Make no mistake it's the hardest thing any one can probably do. But nothing is impossible. Btw i've been sober for 5 years now, I'm not currently using.

[@angelabordack]

@@jleif7736 That’s amazing! I’m so happy you cut those ties. That’s a hard drug to stop. I congratulate you for that accomplishment!! I wish you the very best and your sobriety is beautiful! 😊

[@Uriel77200]

RIP Chester. Felt your pain brother. Thank you for impacting my life w your art.

[@shamrockzk]

Thanks to God I got to see Linkin Park live before he died. Front row right in front of Chester it was amazing. Miss you Chester!!!!! You will always be loved! Great reaction guys.

[@dana_brooke_27]

This song is heartbreaking. He's singing from his soul. It's his reality. This is what childhood abuse does to you. I hope he's at peace now.

[@mokane86]

🥲

[@tlb139]

my personal favorite from this band. great reaction guys!!!!

[@shawnsford7071]

Powerful song with a ton of meaning. 20yrs ago I'd listen to this over and over again when i was going through my relationship and addiction problems.

[@samzclix3753]

This song is said to have a special meaning to Chester especially, since its lyrical content is based on his own life experiences. And due to such, he reportedly got emotional when he was called upon to perform “Crawling” live. While listening to Linkin Park’s “Crawling”, it becomes obvious that the narrator is dealing with a serious situation. The lyrics read as if he is inflicted with some sort of internal dilemma. And this dilemma ultimately results in “too much pressure”, ‘confusion’, ‘insecurity’ and other unfavorable conditions. But what exactly serves as the source of these issues is open to the interpretation. This song manifests that nasty feeling that something is crawling under your skin. Much of the lyric delivered by Chester Bennington deals with the side effects of taking methamphetamines - a drug he used throughout his teens. The anxiety, hallucinations and a feeling of things crawling under his skin. The song, though, can apply to anyone feeling uncomfortable and helpless. In the video, the girl (played by Katelyn Rosaasen) is physically abused by her father. At the beginning, we can see all her bruises. Many of the lyrics demonstrate how hard it is to break the cycle of abuse ("These wounds, they will not heal" and "It's haunting, how I can't seem to find myself again, my walls are closing in"), and how self-confidence is crushed. The blue crystal background closes in on her at the beginning of the first chorus - this shows an emotional shell that she has built around her. The thick make-up is like a mask, trying to hide what's going on inside. The septum ring is designed to link with Chester's lip ring. When the girl walks away from her boyfriend, it's because she's too scared to get close to people. This is also true for the high school bathroom scene. When Chester sings, "Against my will I stand beside my own reflection," he and Katelyn are looking at each other. She looks like she wants to get out of the shell she's in. She also sees painful memories from her past in the crystal. When the second chorus starts, the crystal begins to break and chunks of it are flying about - this is her shell falling down. It represents her father's departure, as does her smiling at the end with the roses in the vase. She's not wearing the thick make-up because she doesn't feel like she needs the protection of a mask - she's got nothing to hide from.

[@heresheis2063]

This is a well written assumption of the song which is one of my faves from LP. You wouldn't happen to be a psychology major, are you?

[@joshuasimber8588]

It's actually about drug addiction and depression. Chester said it himself

[@neolithiumproduction]

Honestly, for me, its about my medical anxiety and the struggle to have control over myself instead of the fear being in control.

[@Tica..77]

THX’s another classic by LP! Excellent choice & fire reaction & amaz insights for 1st X listeners.. they were spot on! ♥️ Yawl

[@stephennisbet9365]

Loving the linkin park reactions .. they were a big part of my teen life & the one thing I regret is never being able to see them live! The death of Chester was devastating worldwide & I know yous now know that listening to them now .. keep up the grind I love linkin park & watching people finding out about them 👏🙌🏻❤️

[@meboy76]

so glad you guys did some linkin park this is such great song love it great band and there voice amazing Miss Chester and them

[@marchamill8530]

LPs songs help so many. Chesters voice was one of a kind. 🔥

[@ariananicoleleon8309]

First of all- y’all always have great reactions and understanding of the songs you hear from LP. :) To be honest everytime I hear this and I hear him sing “confusing what is real” at the end I hear it like …. After everything he went through, his trauma, addiction, sexual abuse… like it can eat at you and tear you apart and darken your world through haunting memories even though it is the past. & even though there is new light and your free from it - it’s just there under your skin apart of you just waiting to remind you at any given moment what happened in your past to give you ptsd. I deal with this on a daily basis after been with my ex of four years, (sexual assault & physical& emotional abuse) and Lord I should be having the best days sometimes but it’s just there lingering… I knew what this song meant as a teenager but as an adult? I resonate so much more with the lyrics. Rip Chester

[@hthuseby]

Catching up on a lot of your videos. So glad you guys are talking about the meaning of these songs. At times in our life I think we all can relate to a point. Chester definitely had demons he was fighting greater than most. Hard to believe it was already 4 yrs ago he left us. Appreciate you guys!

[@pavelgeiba]

song which got me into LP, when I was 10. Listened only crawling on repeat. Later, I decided to check out another songs. Swapped to In the end and was blown away. That was a point where I started my fan journey.

[@rontaemurray1628]

Rest in heaven Chester linkin park my all time favorite band they songs were so so deep they helped me battle through my depression for years

[@swcoder]

I always loved their songs, at some level we all relate. But once you realize he committed suicide, it brings a whole new meaning to all their songs.

[@george3710]

Saw them on tour in Cincy, he’s incredible, u think, he can’t sound better live right..? YES HE CAN, Chester had incredible talent unlike anything I’ve seen, his intensity, emotions, & message are all FELT…some say talented ppl often struggle w/ toughest demons, if I’m not mistaken any1 feel free to correct me, Chester suffered from mental illness/issues & this song, I felt told us some of what he experienced/went through…Asia I thought ur perspective was interesting/unique, bc that interpretation was my 1st time hearing some1 put it in that way…u guys are great always giving different perspectives!! Tear up when listening/watching his last performance “One More Light”, u have to see that performance, WARNING it’s emotional..it’s as if he knew this was the last performance, & knowing it was his last time on stage, its difficult to express the feelings…he took his own life later that same year…Sorry for the downer comment but I thought u guys seemed touched by his music like many of us & just wanted to give u a bit of background…

[@jazzytaz7064]

RIP Chester 🙏 ❤

[@elizabethstrzyzowska6022]

Brings me to tears everytime.

[@mil2k11]

Chester with the most legendary hair!

[@AndrewSmith-db6ib]

Absolutely love the song and your reaction. Asia got hooked so quick and you could tell! You guys kill the reaction game, keep it up. BJ has a mind like no other

[@rolandmendozain]

Love this song , was gonna buy tickets when he was still RIP chester after work hearing that tragic news how much i love linkin just tore me apart after 2 years got my willpower no way never stop listening to linkin park , subbed

[@lacyInmon1978]

I have been a Linkin Park fan since 2000 and their music helped me through some really hard times. I will be eternally grateful to them for saving me when I had no one else.

[@michaelmartin9128]

😢 RIP Chester. We Love and Miss You. 💗✝

[@RickyMogen]

One of my favourite songs by them, my all time favourite song is With You by them

[@DarkAngel1985Mike]

One of my favorite bands, I heard them first when they were still going by the name of Xero on The Crow:Stairway to Heaven tv series and then I saw the video for One Step Closer on MTVX and the Hybrid Theory album helped me through some dark times of depression and anxiety in my early high school years when I had two suicide attempts in my freshman year

[@TravisAbrell]

The first time I heard this song played on acoustic guitar shook me.😢

[@ebenwrogemann2512]

Linkin park is the best band ever. Aspecially the first 2 albums

[@areacode911]

She battled depression which was his reflection. RIP in peace Chester. Depression makes you feel trapped.

[@neolithiumproduction]

For this song...its a perfect word by word of how it feels to struggle and deal with Anxiety. You are controlled by the fear. It distorts reality around you, making things scary when they really shouldn't be. You no longer have any confidence in yourself. And you feel like you can't find who you used to be, before the anxiety started to take over. Its under the skin, so most don't see the struggle you are dealing with, as you try to regain control and find yourself.

[@mpfiveO]

Still think you guys should check out the rearranged & much slower Live version of this song, from the “One More Light” show. It was recorded just before he passed, and with Chester singing it while in the crowd, surrounded by fans, it’s as if he knew he was saying goodbye. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZuxXoF9qLeab8k

[@Jd-im4my]

R.I.P. Chester❤❤

[@3rdjrh]

Listening to this song is like the equivalent to watching an episode of black mirror

[@TheSwede9]

LP meant so much to me growing up so it's so dope to see my favorite reaction channel going through them. It still gets me every time I listen to their older songs (Hybrid Theory/Meteora) and how shocked I was when he was gone. Then you realize it was all in the lyrics the whole way and not just "moody" lyrics that were so common in alt. rock back then. That probably sounds stupid, but most of all wanted to comment that I always appreciate ya'll, great reaction and breakdown as always so there's that!

[@jeffdavis1611]

Asia, I highly doubt that you've ever had to worry about somebody thinking that you're not a gorgeous woman or not good enough!!

[@dwaynelambkin5144]

I think you might be surprised what women "worry about"….. As complimentary to the eyes as Asia is... I am willing to bet she has thought she isn't " a gorgeous woman or not good enough" at some point... Perhaps no longer... Because I am going to assume BJ and their chemistry has built confidence allowing her to see her self value and beauty... But to this day I have never met a woman that hasn't doubted either their physical appearance or their self worth let alone both... Hence why in my opinion it's always important for us as men to show women how important they are... How beautiful they are... And how worthy they are...!!!! And when push comes to shove... If it wasn't for women our worth would be worthless... As it takes the existence of women for us to even exist...!!!

[@catladygoddess]

Linkin Park is a great group and Chester Bennington (RIP) cut through with that voice and the lyrics are so deep. Great reaction. Unfortunately he lost his own struggle with mental illness but I’m sure he saved many who can relate to the words. ❤️‍🩹

[@stevecn70]

I think when you know Chester took his life, these lyrics are most so relevant. When someone screams out, you should listen. No matter how hard it is, that is what we want.

[@MoralesYannie-xg3hr]

Fun fact: this is the hardest song as per chester, when he was ask if what is the song he hated the most, he replied that he doesnt hate any of there song but Crawling is the hardest song for him to sing.

[@jameshenryk]

Crawling and in the end where what made me love Linkin Park's music

[@miz.beehaven5570]

Please do STAIND,..something to remind you...plz..plz... 🙏 But find the live version. His voice 8n his live performances are IMO the best. He is the voice that always sinks to my soul. Plus that song..is very deep. Some said he wrote it for Chester!

[@kellyhouse4263]

Oh how I miss his voice❤ R.I.P. Chester

[@ChrisKim1562]

#Rip Chester...

[@nobhill1991]

the first time I heard this was around 2000 but it spoke to me because it sounded like my anxiety!!!

[@mikaelliedes3493]

These LP songs have begun to make more sense to me lately..

[@kinotransam]

Yall gotta check out Chester's last known song released call "Cross Off". It was a feature by Mark Morton. It was released after his death, and the video just has a mic stand is the scenes with the band.

[@sinner8714]

Sometimes no matter how hard you try, theres some things you just cant get past. You have days where it doesn't control your every waking moment then theres days you just cant escape it

[@AlrightokayAO]

Damn Asia. I've listened to LP for 20 years and I have never actually thought about your take on thiis song. How this is about not being good enough kind of thing.

[@IndiaMusicRadioNews]

It's all about mental health Chester was letting everyone know with his lyric

[@Jay-Moneyshot]

Yeah linkin park goes deep, a lot of great songs

[@jamminjeeper5854]

They've many deep songs.

[@magsxoa4519]

All of LPs music hits hard... I mean hard... Damn.. He was so talented.. the group had it going but Chester's problems were much deeper that he couldn't overcome. Had much more to give but he couldn't do it anymore, I guess.. only he would know. Side note: you should do reactions on the songs that they collabed with Jay-Z

[@vicegripp]

#RIP Chester .... if anyone is going through tough times, reach out & lean on someone that loves you. If you have no one, reach out to strangers & I promise one will be there for you. You are ALWAYS enough & you matter. #StayStrong #SuicideAwareness

[@itspickleric138]

Definitely recommend the live version of this

[@tapashe9239]

100% facts, going through a lot of what Asia was talking about around 4:30. I don't feel I deserve the person I am with.

[@anitaireland2731]

A friend of mine was obsessed with Chester and thought he was the only one who understood her and when he took his life she couldn't handle it and 4 days later she took her life . She left behind a 4 year old daughter .

[@marvinc323]

I'm a little late but I hope you react to one of his last concerts and sings acapella with the crowd. So emotional

[@SprigganTheEmperor]

you should definitely listen Crawling One More Light Live performance it is 100x better

[@flarica64]

Another Linkin Park song that three generations sing along to. We just love Linkin Park.

[@pricelessalmaz]

"Linkin Park - Crawling (One More Light Live)"!

[@evabyrum3327]

Linkin Park is very versatile. Chester is the Scream God!!! Listen to One More Lignt, Given Up then listen to their cover on Rolling In The Deep. Every song by them is amazing!! Amazing group and my number one!!

[@Ms.JessiJ88]

Rip Chester. But his life is a rabbit hole y'all should trip out on. Great reaction!! LP got me thru Jr high in 1999 early 2000s

[@sarahsays4917]

I look forward to the day major depressive disorder is regarded as the longtermC medical illness/disability it is. RIP Chester, may you finally be resting easy baby

[@nedmustafa3047]

You should react to My December by Linkin Park, apparently there's a message within that song crying out for help.

[@korrinmichealson5344]

Great album! I recommend Pushing me Away.

[@scottmatzeder9162]

RIP Chester...we miss ya brother!

[@ronmaldia6664]

Ya'll should do the live version!! When its just Chester and Mike on piano and slowed down the fell is so different!! 🔥

[@drunkrockerreaction2377]

Shout out to the people that are dropping bones 🤘🤘🤘 thank you for turning them on to the hits

[@maces213z5]

“Heavy” by linking park is definitely a heart breaker

[@certs743]

This song really resonated with me back in high school and in many ways I feel I am kind of back in that headspace. It never really goes away. I never could watch the video though. The imagery was always a hard pass for me.

[@swedishchef3592]

Personally I think the song represents on different perspectives definitely abuse (pick a type) perspective and also definitely addiction perspective, Chester suffered from both of these issues

[@albamartinez4987]

Chester was sexually abused for a period of time as a child by someone the family knew from which he never really recovered. As far as I know, this song is about how it feels to survive abuse (of any kind). It's why it's so potent and the imagery shows a young lady clearly in an abusive relationship from which she manages to escape.

[@leytonandrei]

Amazing. I love LP.

[@alphar1058]

You guys should check out Skillet - Not Gonna Die! They have 2 singers 1 guy and 1 girl and their voices compliment eachother so well and the girl singer is also the drummer. It's amazing I think you guys would like it. Anyways another great reaction loved it!!!!

[@helenaj9436]

I am here for Linkin Park 🙏 ❤️ *some songs from my teen years, whew, I was never a fan so Ima play them on Silent when the Bama game starts. I gotta give y'all that view 🥰

[@michaelsavard8974]

Chesters version of rollin in the deep🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@vanessahunt586]

Any Linkin park reactions would be awesome 🤘🤘 chester had an unique voice & could sing anything.react to given up or lying from you & the piano version of this,& you'll see what I mean 🤘🎶🎸🤘🎶🎸🤘🎶🎸lotsa 💖💖💖 from 🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿

[@UnGranSaurio]

As a bipolar, the confusing what is real part is so Real, you start doubting yourself until that point.. RIP Chester

[@z_fight_flight9775]

Should listen to the live version! I think it was one of his last performances.

[@R8drdave]

Didn’t realize how depressed he was. I guess after his death and actually listening to the words it makes more sense.

[@evematice6104]

Please react to Breaking the Habit, Castle of Glass, The Catalyst, Faint-Rock am Ring-2007 live. RIP Chester. Miss you.

[@SBguitarcovers]

Linkin Park - Somewhere I Belong
