I cried when Mike broke that bittersweet smile as he hears Chester's voice 💔

[@athousandsuns3222]

Elvis got this tears in his eyes Mike and Anna had these smile. Great Moment.

[@MyDawn2011]

Sweet isnt it?

[@rizaacosta8172]

💔😭

[@Nr.1Mimir]

Gosh that moment when Chester began to talk just broke my heart. Mike is stronger than I could ever be. We are with you Mikey. And l his voice is so calm I like that.

[@UlrikeLP]

Hearing Chesters Voice is so 💔

[@LinkinParkConnoisseur]

I was not ready to hear Chester's voice just now. made me cry.

Mike is the most precious man on the planet. He’s just extraordinary.

[@PauloConstantino167]

LOL

[@ladysarah3000]

this interviewer is SO respectful and genuine. I love that he lets mike talk, he doesn't interrupt. The questions were not prying, they were honest and great.

[@Ariel_thenotsolittlemermaid]

From the interviews I've seen, it seems that the people who knew Mike before, or knew Chester, are generally more respectful. Idk if it's because they talk to Mike even when it's not recorded and asked all the difficult questions in these interviews, if they've already got an idea of what it's like from having met Chester themselves (even if it was just a couple of times), knowing his boundaries and how to respect him, or something completely else... but it's just like that. This is a radio show in LA, which is where the band is from, so naturally the band members have come by and did interviews there multiple times. They know Mike, and you can see it in the interview.

[@emierehema5593]

"Is it about us" how cute! What a great interview Elvis, Mike is so humble and he is so amazing 💖💖

[@anamargarida5967]

The part when he talks about Anna is just so genuine and cute! They really love each other! 🖤🖤Btw, already bought the album and I can't stop listening to it! It's so awesome!

[@mgee3933]

Hi are you single

[@anamargarida5967]

hunter snow I really don't know what that has to do with anything...

[@mgee3933]

Anna Sampaio it has nothing to do with the video, it has something to do with you being SO BEAUTIFUL. 😊

[@anamargarida5967]

Well, thanks but I'm not single... Sorry to disappoint you...

[@Ariel_Alcazar.34]

Stupid conversation! 😒😄

[@pagla_basu]

Mike's face when Chester's clip was being played was so pure.

[@taratehrani8019]

Am i the only one who crying to chester s voice

[@jennydavis6534]

Mike is such a genuine human being. He is so humble and he is one of the most talented entertainers I have ever seen in my life. I'm very proud of him

[@sintija7511]

Chester's voice💔💔💔😭😭😭

[@guillermovaccarezza7105]

They are so next door guys despite having been one of the most important band the past 20 years. Their humility is only paired by their creative genius

[@zoyai4294]

Mike is gorgeous! Last year he looked so depressed what I worried what he may finish his musical career. That woud be sad because he is very talented.

[@natschaefer1044]

He's always creating stuff, and it's his way of processing grief as well, so I can't see his career ending anytime soon

[@zoyai4294]

I'm glad if you are right. His song "Place to start" made me worry for his musical future.

[@evalynn1863]

Thank you for clarifying on twitter that you made sure Mike was okay with hearing a clip of Chester talking before playing it. Would be awesome if you could add an annotation stating that at that point in the video, or even write it in the description. Just so people know. We're a very defensive lot and tend to overreact when we think one of our own has been hurt or threatened. Great interview though! I adore when Mike talks about how incredible Anna is or about interactions with his kids.

[@greenpea957]

Evalynn I think many fans don't like that part because Mike had such a hard time listening to Chester's voice during OML live album listening party he need to leave early. Since they asked him beforehand for this segment and he seems ok with it, I guess it was ok.

[@evalynn1863]

I wholeheartedly understand why people got upset. I am one of the people who got upset because I know how much it hurts me when I hear Chester's voice when I wasn't planning to, and to think someone would do that to Mike and not give him an opportunity to agree to it is infuriating. That's why I think it's a really good idea to defuse the situation and tell people up front that they asked and Mike agreed. Would make a lot of people less defensive and angry :)

[@MuffinstoMangos]

Agreed. I just watched this (late to the party again!) An when they played his interview I was like omgosh! I was about in tears for Mike. He did look like it bothered a tad but I think it was because he hadnt heard that particular interview. But Im glad they ok'd it with him first. It shows that he is moving along in grief process being willing at this point to hear him talking. But I do think some of the other members of LP are having a harder time even now. But the part about Anna. How sweet is he! Rt! I bet he is a wonderful partner an Dad. Goodluck Mikey!

[@Ariel_thenotsolittlemermaid]

Well, I'm glad that you clarified that, because I was worried

[@eliasgarcia6576]

Sucks that Mike doesn't get enough recognition on videos, But I'm glad that Crossing The Line is on an ESPN commercial.

[@Ariel_Alcazar.34]

Elias Garcia they play crossing a line on ESPN commercials?

[@eliasgarcia6576]

Yes, but only one of them, unfortunately, he still hasn't had his break.

[@hunterotails2015]

Mike makes incredible music and this album is amazing... I just hate that it had to be made, considering the circumstances.

[@Tess1061]

16:40 -- My heart melted when he said his kids figured it out. MI CORAZON! That must've been such a precious moment for Mike and Anna. Precious Shinoda babies!

[@MyDawn2011]

I loved mike's smile hearing chesters voice.So heartwarming...never forgotten ❤❤

[@M00NIMA]

No words. 💔💔💔💔💔

[@annechristinefenner7152]

He has such a pure heart❤️

[@marcellaperez2175]

I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU MIKE💖 BEST WISHES MIKE💖

[@carolgoacher1075]

Mike you are an Amazing Guy and Post Traumatic is YOUR journey so thank you for sharing ...... Its Brilliant. Thank you for just being...you and Anna is your soulmate for sure 😍❤

[@naimaboukhiar5664]

How could someone be so perfect

[@Thursday_The_12th]

There will never be another Chester Bennington ever again and no one can take his place.

[@theholyoneflagbearer6980]

God Mike is such a humble man he’s so delicate with his words and so raw with his emotions he’s the main reason I wanted to pick up a guitar

[@mariannetfinches]

It's so good to hear him talk about doing LP songs live again & not feeling sad. Grief can swallow you whole, & even when you know intellectually that the feeling (or at least its intensity) is temporary, it's hard to believe that in the moment. I like a description I've heard of the loss staying the same size, but your life grows around it. So the loss becomes a much smaller part of your story. It rings true for me.

[@devinproctor89]

I bought the album pre ordered and got it in the mail 2 days ago! I love it! Keep your head up Mike amazing Music! I wanted a physical copy of this album so bad! Now I have it thank God!

[@ahmadjamalmughal47]

08:35. That's exactly what I thought when I listened Chester's interview in this show.

[@danewb360]

6:18 they plays chesters voice and you can just see the look on his face :(

[@linkincode]

Mike we all love you so much

[@francescocomunale8195]

Must feel so heartbreaking for mike to hear chesters voice...

[@angelusa73]

When I hear his name I think of someone kind and caring, a complete artist in every sense of the word. mostly a good and caring and fun and loyal friend. Very lucky who knows him personally :)

[@aliciabokor9879]

Mike is a amazing guy with a great heart , Chester was equally amazing his voice made me smile , but then tears he was so sweet and just thoughtful.

[@M00NIMA]

In tears ..

[@UlrikeLP]

Thanks for the upload ❤️❤️

[@stevencross6189]

love the new album. keep making music Mike. love when you spit them bars

[@jesusbustos1355]

You can clearly see Mike really misses Chester from the look on his face at the end of hearing his voice

[@carmenkurdapya4425]

Thank you for this thoughtful most sensitive interview... Mike's narratives are so humanizing for its honesty...

[@rayszek9416]

That's crazy, I just watched Chester's interview on here the day this released.

[@moonshelter3448]

Wow... that was a bit... like... insane! And how beautiful was Mike's reaction... he really was Chester's knight... also I like the fact that his wife helped him with mental health it's great.

[@tessyoung419]

I am speechless with admiration. 💖⭐💖

[@GorcStew]

I don't wanna be overtly analytical... but he turns away to hide his reaction when he hears Chester's voice. It really looked like he was gonna crack there for a minute :'(

[@zoyai4294]

Interviewer desperately fall in love.

[@BecsWorld]

His voice...I miss that voice so much. I would give absolutely anything to hear it again in real time.

[@kristiv83]

Lovely interview all, around! 🤩 #muhmuhmuhmikeshinoda 💜🎶😎🎶💜

[@hobbiesandpassions9137]

1you know those rockstars that cheat on their wives and so on and Mike is so opposite, he is a great musician, family person and friend!

[@dsabbas1]

He is in his 40s but he looks like he is 30? How the hell?

[@chelseaperez2169]

6:17 😔😔😭😭🖤🖤

[@bloojkl4520]

Mike is so nice to not react badly at them when they played Chester’s clip. It was kinda risky.

[@Ariel_thenotsolittlemermaid]

They asked him before the interview if he was ok with it. They wouldn't have done it if he didn't agree.

[@NikkiBrown75official]

6:17 awww...

[@NikkiBrown75official]

16:48 awwwwwwww

[@oceanstaiga5928]

The fact that they made him listen to his voice tho…. :(

[@Ariel_thenotsolittlemermaid]

Someone else commented here that they asked Mike beforehand if he was ok with it and he agreed. Apparently they just didn't mention it here.

[@HokageAlex]

Just annoying that Mike doesnt like relive that moment kinda pisses me off that they forced him to listen to Chester when he is trying to move on passed that

[@Ariel_thenotsolittlemermaid]

They asked him if he was fine with it before the interview

[@cjj963]

I can’t believe they just put Chester’s voice on so abruptly like that. So insensitive!

[@hayleymichelle7480]

Christina V they pre okd that w mike. Chill

[@Ariel_thenotsolittlemermaid]

They made sure he was ok with it beforehand
