Pausing the video during the scream is a sin by the way😂 great review though.

[@omarp1989]

Taboo 😩

[@Cheese-Vegito]

Yeup....It's a Crime😂😂

[@spandan1601]

RIP chester, sang like an angel - screamed like a demon.

[@abcdefoxtrot]

Depressive song in an aggressive way. Highly recommended to see "Linkin Park - QWERTY (Summer Sonic Tokyo 2006)

[@THEDavidHeretic]

Already in the que, added your name to the requesters.

[@suicidenotept.666]

I second this

[@ilyas_elouchihi]

Yes, this song is a must

[@JJ-jw3yc]

I just search KZbin for people reacting to this song. TWe all know the scream is incredible but it's the fact he sustains it for 17 seconds and then immediately goes into clean singing again without any hesitation and hits those higher notes. Also if you watch it again before Chester screams Mike looks over at him with a little smile and it's my favourite thing. He's like "this is my friend about to do the thing he does better than almost anyone in the world and I can't wait." And I just love that.

[@Aaron_Berry]

The one thing I like about you is that you focus on EVERYBODY in Linkin Park. Most people are like "Chester this, Chester that", but you focus on everybody, which I like. And yeah, most of Linkin Parks BIGGEST hits were from 2000-2003. This song came out in 2007, which would explain why you never heard it. DEFINITELY react to more Linkin Park, that should be an interesting watch/reaction. I'm warning you though, their latest and LAST album One More Light which came out in 2016 and/or 2017 is pure pop music. Also, if you somehow don't know, Chester committed suicide in 2016.

[@GowSpeedrunsAndMemes]

he died in 2017 tho :/

[@rcsskier]

Chester's scream was so long they had to go to commercial in the middle of it!

[@madelen9279]

Chester’s voice is something so special! I would loooove a reaction to QWERTY live and A place for my head live 🙏🏼 They really go all out on those. QWERTY: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oGPak4iHg81pd9E A place for my head: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpStnnhqmJpjgZo

[@spandan1601]

Yes, qwerty live in summersonic is a gem.

[@THEDavidHeretic]

QWERTY is already in the que, I was able to add your name to the requesters. I don't see A Place For My Head in the que, so that would have to be a fresh request. You can suggest songs on here, and if your suggestion happens to already be in the que, I am more than happy to add your name to the requesters of that song.

[@loadshedding2532]

Bro you paused in between the scream

[@thesefooscartoon]

Noooo! Paused at the wrong time long scream lol

[@dijionrose5296]

Thank you.. loved the scream fyi held it for like 16 secs.. he knew how to scream he did talk about the control of the scream he knew what to do not to hurt his throat an stuff..thanks again glad you liked

[@bobbydelamar606]

RIP Chester Bennington 🌹🌹 So glad I was privileged to hear him live.

[@thesnorman5666]

I’m so surprised you didn’t react more to him holding that 17 second scream. That was awesome

[@jasonkart1651]

So glad more people are requesting linkin park. I put in a request for hunger strike a few months ago where Chris sings Eddie's part and Chester is singing Chris's part. RIP to two legends. The lyrics to this song and how Chester sings them thinking about what happened gives me chills every time I hear it. Great job to whoever requested it and as always a great review by DH!

[@subservient8]

There was a fucking reason. some hated him.. there was a reason most loved him. There was also a reason all of us bought the albums and and turned one depressed visionary into a cultural icon who headlined concerts and sold MORE FUCKING albums than any one else in the 2000s. We are still questioning if chester is "good"..... After all this time... He had to kill himself to prove what even his own peers knew... Chester's vision of what music should be is where I still want to be now.

[@igortokarski9517]

That's my FAVOURITE LINKIN PARK'S SONG, and it's even on MY FAVORITE ALBUM from them. The whole CD was released on the day of my 7th birthday (on May 15th 2007). So, by 2 days I will be 21 years old, and this album will be 14 years old (at the same time) I love it because of the AMAZING Chester's 17-second scream

[@StoneShards]

The front man makes the band! A great front man can float a mediocre group of instrumentalists, or elevate a great group of instrumentalists to an iconic synergy, giving the band "identity", personality, an instantly identifiable character.

[@TrayXCooper]

Listen to the song "The Messenger" by them It is absolutely beautiful And also their song "One More Light" it was one of his last songs he released and wrote before he took his life and you really can hear the pain he felt. Those songs I mentioned are MUCH lighter but they are worth a listen. Those songs are light and soft but brings a tear to your eye and you need to hear it

[@user-ul1wc4lx2h]

linkin park qwetry please next

[@paco_granados]

That is a good song from their album Minutes to Midnight... The last album I bought from them... And yes.. That bridge is fantastic... N use reaction David... See you in the next one!

[@TheGamingRepublic]

I would recommend listening to linkin park “no more sorrow”, “one step closer”, or “in the end” all at rock am ring 2007.

[@bennim5199]

Nice reaction. Greets from germany ;-)

[@bobwalrave1877]

Didn't know about this song before, know of the band oc. David, i have to see more of your video's because you seem to be a very generous reviewer. I would like see some of your lower scores, haha. Would give this song something between a 6.5-7.0 myself. Its an uninteresting song for me that is lifted up by the chorus and the bridge. Liked the emotion of Chester, and the band seemed to enjoy themselves as well. Production wasnt super, but decent enough.

[@todddole4855]

Great review man.

[@__RYN__]

7:40 This and Faint by far my favorite of the "newer" Linkin Park song just had an aggressive tone. RIP Chester

[@terrahawk1977]

Saw them live well worth it 👌

[@mrlarry1183]

Same. Absolutely incredible!

[@TrayXCooper]

You should go back and listen to the studio version of this song when you can. Not on camera, just in your own time. The studio version is well the studio version so its the best version haha

[@coopsnz1]

Linkin park - stay

[@rodimakdesi74]

it is the wierdest thing that you had not listend to so many bands and songs ,where have you been all these years

[@THEDavidHeretic]

Stuck in prog rock up until a couple years ago.....I have a lot of catching up to do.

[@rodimakdesi74]

all respect to you man, your are such a rare intelligence musician, can you please react to Myrath a progressive metal band from Tunisia here is the best two songs for them belliever kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZ-ppY2QpZyZY8U i want to die kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zpy9f5ePj5JqisU

[@user-oq8rf5bb5j]

As a disabled vet I feel this , everyday....

[@TrayXCooper]

I'm impressed you can always guess the chotds being played. I've been a musician and guitarist for 10 years and I still have a fucking hard time figuring what chords are being played just by hearing it lol. I usually need to look up chords and tabs if I want to learn a song cuz I am trash at recognizing what chords are what just be listening to a song lol. I can guess some but I couldn't get most of them or all of them haha

[@THEDavidHeretic]

I've been told by a lot of musicians I've worked with that I have perfect pitch....honestly though, I think I can always be better and more accurate.

[@TrayXCooper]

@@THEDavidHeretic its impressive. I struggle sometimes with it. But I wish I could have that skill but yet I am only 23 years old so lol

[@THEDavidHeretic]

@@TrayXCooper You have plenty of time. Just work on it consistently and you will achieve your goal, I have no doubt of that.

[@TrayXCooper]

@@THEDavidHeretic thanks for the encouragement! Means alot!

[@kaydenandrade3138]

Only 8.3?! I honestly think that deserves 9.4 at least in my opinion

[@murka197]

Please react to Linkin park - Qwerty(Tokyo 2006) - the hardest song LP, rebellion, bleed it out[sabotage], guilty all the same

[@redsnorlax1945]

Lp is the perfect example of sometimes slower is heavier

[@Owenator26]

What's with the pig noises whenever you wanna rewind on things that's funny as hell lol

[@heresheis2063]

Love your reactions and critiques As an LP fan and a music fan in general I respect your opinion. Please react to more LP songs such as Qwerty Live in summer sonic tokyo, a place for my head, with you texas live, breaking the habit, no more sorrow, the little things give you away milton Keynes

[@wbans002]

I love it

[@Vipppala]

check nemophilas cover of this, would also be a new band you haven't checked out yet ( i think) ?

[@hardcorechristopher9174]

This was great how is everyone doing today?

[@kevinriley1249]

I think meotara to me is better then hybrid theory but thats just me. I had the pleasure of meeting linkin park in concert in 2001 when they were on the ozzfeat tour they were some of the nicest individuals I've ever meet. We were first me and my girlfriend to meet them and we asked chester for a picture he said the record label told them not to but his exact words fuck them lets take a picture and 20 years later that moment had stuck with me its a shame he is gone the world lost a true talent and kind person he will be missed.

[@user-from-Arkaim]

Yes, man, this is the hardest thing from Linkin Park, because Mr. Khan was silent. I like the classic Linkin Park, which combined new metal and hip hop into musical harmony, but this thing stands alone. For my generation, the band from Texas has become a cult, and it will always be in my heart, this voice of Chester has become a cultural phenomenon of the early 21st century.

[@whatiwasgoingtosay]

You missed out on some of their best work, man. Definitely check out A Thousand Suns and The Hunting Party.

[@KenoLotoGuru]

Пел как ангел ,кричал как дьявол ,Честер тебя очень не хватает 😢

[@mojojojo88]

You NEVER pause during the scream. 😮

[@pedrohenriquecoelhoferreir6972]

Man, you GOT TO react to A Line in the Sand by them. It is one of the most heavy and aggressive songs they have ever written. Sure you"ll enjoy it. Here's the link to the official audio: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJyno4mCbbmmq9k

Loved ur review but pausing video during the scream is punishable by 25 to life in supermax

[@OGGOAT23]

Can you react to TAD - Boiler Room?

[@bethany763]

Please do the better reactions for this song: Clarkston Which is my personal favorite or Milton Keyes which is the most popular I guess. Both are great.

Отличное видео, но хотелось бы еще увидеть реакцию на linkin park Runaway

Неожиданный русский коммент

[@FedorMachida]

Nice commenting on the music, but let's also comment on the lyrics as well, imo The lyrics are very important for Linkin Park songs.

[@kevinchristiancastillo2017]

Sir please Reacts to Linkin Park-Qwerty live 2006..it is heavier

[@coopsnz1]

Blindspott - stay ) new Zealand alternative metal

[@aracelypadilla4658]

I still have my AOL email address, it's not extinct, YET, Lol

[@imzarth]

Linkin Park has as way more heavy album than anything on their first 2 records It's called The Hunting Party. You should listen to Rebellion by them, it's from that album, super heavy

[@igortokarski9517]

(cough) ALSO Guilty All The Same, and A Line In The Sand (both have the similar chords on the choruses)

[@metalmike6668]

I only like their heavy shit. check out qwerty live, war, keys to the kingdom, hit the floor, by myself live in texas, reading my eyes live lpu2006

[@420kid7]

i believe its live from texas,one of his best ever live screams....rip chester

[@garysimonson1135]

8.5 for a Linkin Park song?

[@GeoffreyEatWorld]

The bridge? Really? Chesters scream tho...

[@bethany763]

I appreciate your reactive score… this isn’t their best performance of this song. Chester is no match for anyone, yes I said it, anyone as far as vocalist go in the rock/metal genre. As far as a vocalist holding their note/scream the best, Chester is unmatchable. If you consider growling in comparison then no. If you consider pure raw talent singing and screaming being able to go back and forth Chester is the best in the rock genre.

[@officialdifusorYT]

Not the best live from them
