The most profound comment I’ve seen in a VERY long time.

[@selfishstockton6123]

Corny

[@KadurOrdo]

Yet true

[@susanconstable2113]

I was already crying then I saw your comment now I’m bawling. I can’t ever listen to this song without crying. I’m 55 so these guys came out pretty late in my life like my children and nephew set me onto to them. My youngest struggles with mental health issues and tried to end himself. Linkin park is something that he had to relate to and keep himself going. He took losing Chester very hard.

[@hoopwizardws]

I cry every single time. Chester remains the only celebrity death that absolutely ruined me. May he Rest in Peace. Thanks for this reaction BP.

[@W4ll_fl0w3r]

Chester and Robin Williams are two I find ive felt even more these last couple years... 🙏🕊🙏

[@Emiliosnanar]

This is the first time I've listened to this since he died 😔

[@DaP84]

Chester, DIO and David Bowie for me

[@JulitaPio]

I feel you❤

[@kuroimushi9421]

I cried throu all the reaction...it made me think about my late dad...it's 10 years already, but it still hurts like a hell 😭

[@Nyx-MAKO]

The “I do” at the jimmy Kimmel live joint goes through your whole body. It’s such a beautiful tribute to his best friend Chris Cornell ❤️

[@alysiadietz9327]

I have never been able to make it through that entire performance without the tears coming. Live on Kimmel is highly recommended.. with tissues handy.

[@stephaniewade2973]

I cry every damn time!

[@mjsplicer78]

It's brutal on the feels parts of the body. The live performance by Mike Shinoda in like 2019 I think is the same way, I don't know that he gets through it without the crowd support

[@Scotschie]

I've seen a variety of this song, and I'm reduced to rubble every time, I still haven't seen that one, it might just undo me.

[@Athelia1990]

His scream in that live version breaks me everytime.

[@Dreveryn]

One specific Linkin Park performance I think you should react to is "In The End" at Chester Bennington's tribute concert. After he passed, they did a tribute concert "Linkin Park & Friends Celebrate Life in Honor of Chester Bennington" where they invited different band's vocalists to sing Chester's part for each song. Towards the end of the show, they performed "In the End" where they left an empty mic at the front of the stage, and the audience sang Chester's part. It's normal for the crowd to sing that song, but in that show you really see how much he meant to us.

[@BrandonWestfall]

Sum 41 performing Faint with Mike is pretty dope as well.

[@supersasukemaniac]

I remember for "somewhere I Belong" they had this Japanese band (One OK Rock) come in and do the song,and the singer broke everyone's heart when he said "I wish Chester was standing next to me."

[@marenrausch80]

that one and NUMB, same show... always gets me

[@Samjane2609]

I remember watching that show and being an absolute mess the whole time. 😔💔

[@taagolarts3787]

Was at that concert. We (the audience) were all looking at the stage, looking at each other, smiling at the connectedness we felt to one another, tears streaming down everyone's faces as we collectively felt that grief together. It was incredibly cathartic. Most powerful concert experience I've ever had, and probably ever will. Much love to all my LP family

[@Morder1990]

Its almost 7 years .... RIP legend Chester :(

[@franciscoaraujo8295]

7 years, and still hurts💔

[@theresaneeds4514]

OMG, I cry every time I hear this song because of the performance they did on Kimmel for Chris Cornell the day after his death, and then two months later, Chester was gone.

[@Laurael626]

I agree. This is a hard one to listen too. The Kimmel performance is even harder. BP you definitely need to watch it whether you do a reaction to it or not.

[@kimnapier8387]

This breaks 💔 me because I feel him and his beautiful heart 💕!! I'm sorry he is not with us anymore. He went through too much. Rip Chester

[@nathanclarke2777]

This was written by Mike for a friend of thiers who died of breast cancer at the label. When they did this song for Chris's death it became Chesters song! And after Chester died it became his song period!

[@Jester-86]

Nearly all their songs were written by Mike but most people think Chester did. Mike never gets enough credit.

[@nathanclarke2777]

@@Jester-86 True! After his death everyone was saying Chester Wrote this one and it tells you he was goiong to kill himself but that is just not true!

[@manyfacedgod1982]

Ugh. I never knew that fact. I found this song flipping through KZbin songs at night coping while my wife went through breast cancer treatment. She made it, and it’s been 3 years…but this song still hits me.

"In the kitchen one more chair than you need." That's a potent line everyone has relatives who reach an old age and pass away eventually. Through time, we lose people and slowly we see less and less of our older relatives due to them passing leaving more and more empty spaces around the table.

[@ThePositive0ne1]

I recently lost my great-grandmother this year and her death is one of the one things that had the biggest impact in my life. Not seeing her at Thanksgiving dinners anymore will be one of the hardest things I will along with family have to deal with. In her times of hurt whether it be physical, emotional, or mentally she always had a smile on her face and would try her hardest to make others happy and for that I couldn't be more grateful.

[@vanguardgaming1779]

I lost my grandfather a few weeks before my 23rd birthday in 2022, it’s ok to break, you try so hard not to break and be seen as weak by the others around you, but sometimes it’s ok to let go, it’s easier than building it all up

Don't fight your tears...i cry every time...😢 Ive been listening to them since hybrid theory. His death was tragic and he was a huge part of my life.

[@oakland-as-diehard6717]

His tribute to Chris Cornell, his buddy. With this song live is even more gut wrenching. Worth a revisit for that and the live scream he gives. RIP to 2 of the GOATS

[@Matjo7588dk]

This song gets much more powerful, when you watch LP and Chester sing this as it got the meaning it did for Chester. He performed it shortly after one of his best friends died, Chris Cornell. And you can hear and see the pain. And you really get to understand how hard it hit Chester, and what Chris meant to him, when you learn that the day Chester took his own life, was Chris Cornells birthday. It was not a random day to Chester. Linkin Park - One More Light Live (Chris Cornell Tribute)

[@Realjondon38]

Man I cry like a baby every time I watch this and hear the song. I don’t know how anyone can not cry

[@timisthename]

He sings this live it gives it so much more emotion it’s crazy

[@ancatdal]

Chester did seem like a genuine sweetheart. I don't mean to put him on a pedestal, of course he had his flaws and bad days ... but it seems he had such a good heart. His friend Ryan has called him "one of the only 'true and pure' souls on Earth". His bandmate Mike Shinoda said Chester's biggest flaw was that he cared to much; too much and too deeply. Mike's wife Anna said of Chester: "You thought with your heart. Passion guided every step (...) A heart that big couldn't help but to love so fiercely, hurt so fiercely. You were love and magic and joy." Everyone who knew him seems to mention how he was a funny goofball, generous and sweet, and so, so passionate. As sweet as he was to others, as hard it seems he could be on himself. He spoke of having 'another Chester' inside that wanted to take him down, about having these patterns of thinking where he'd convince himself that others hated him and were right to do so. His self-esteem seems to have been so deeply fracture by the trauma and abuse he went through as a child, and sadly he never got to heal that part of himself before he was lost to that self-hatred. It's such a huge tragedy and loss. The best I think we can do for him now is to honour his memory by healing ourselves and supporting each other, #makechesterproud. It's what he'd want for us ❤

[@WizardPandora]

The Sweetest smile and funniest laugh hide the deepest pain

[@ancatdal]

@@WizardPandora Sometimes humor, laughter and smiles can be used to hide the pain. But at other times, both can exist authentically. Chester spoke about how he often felt fine when he was with people, when he was busy and distracted and "outside his own head"; but that there was something in there that wanted to "take him down". I think Chester was plagued with poor self-esteem, having this inner voice that would always tear him down and make him question his own worth AND that he was a silly, excitable goofball that was often authentically happy. That doesn't exclude that there were times when he would try to hide behind his humour, of course. I just don't think it was all an act to hide his pain, from others or from himself. I think he had both in him.

[@christina9841]

I can't listen to this without tearing up....

[@davidcantu4166]

I had just received the news that my five year old grandson had passed away and was on my way to my son's house and this song came on. I didn't even know I had it on my Playlist. I had to pull over because I was crying too much. Now every time I hear it I think of my grandson. Thank you Linkin Park. RIP Chester

[@ThePositive0ne1]

I am so incredibly sorry for your and your son's loss. I have absolutely no clue who you are, but your story has brought me to tears. I am so thankful you pulled over and let it out. It's really the best thing for us as humans to do because keeping emotions bottled up and not focusing on them causes the emotions about the certain thing makes you even more sad. I know your grandson is in heaven and looking down upon you.

[@W4ll_fl0w3r]

Not even noon yet and you gots me here bawling like a baby 🙏🕊🙏 #LLCB may he stay forever loved and never forgotten 💚

[@nathanclarke2777]

He will always be loved and never forgotten!

[@WoWRefugee]

Linkin Park hits me hard. I've suffered from depression my entire life. I served in the Army and after some shit in Afghanistan, and most especially Iraq, where I was injured and our unit lost a few troopers, my depression only worsned and I started suffering from 'self-delete' issues. I'm still hanging in there 21 years after Iraq, it's more a struggle some days more than others.... but as I said, Linkin kin Park just hits me harder than most. Music has so much power to touch our souls, I honestly in my worst moments turn to music to get me through. Keep up doing what you do, musicians like you help and save more people than you may ever know.

[@Blacklighting1]

Thank You for keeping yourself here on this side of the beat. I saw a video of David Draiman of Disturbed talking about the fight and the intensity of depression and how it is just like any other disease like cancer. I lost a good friend of mine to this disease. I lost friends to the war even though I didn't serve. I will never know that kind of life. But, a lesson that my father, who did served when I was younger told me " The best thing that you can do is to keep fighting to live your life the best you can." It wasn't until I had a seizure and almost died that it hit me. My life really does mean something.

[@Körv_spad]

hello! how are you now at the moment? just felt like checking in😁

[@FaridHawami]

I don't think I'll ever get over losing Chester. The dude screamed his soul out for all of us who couldn’t, but no one really listened. I’m one of the ones still shining because of people like him. I miss him so damn much 😔🥺

[@davidmackeown9318]

In my opinion one of the greatest emotional songs of all time. Always hits me hard. Rip. Chester. Gone but never forgotten.

This is an emotional song. The light goes out, the star is gone.. makes me tear up knowing that we all lose loved ones, family, friends, and forever goodbye. And the space is empty. I miss the ones I've lost. Noting each day is closer to the end for someone, even myself

[@lindamiller4748]

Chris Cornell was his breaking point. Poor Mike to deal with the loss of Chester and Chris.

Omg can't stop crying. Every time this song breaks my heart

[@MUTTSANBGS]

This song still makes me tear up 😪 Chester was a compassionate, genuine and humble human being and is still greatly missed by us LP fans. He loved his fans just as much as we all love him and your observation BP is spot on of him, he was a beautiful soul inside and out. Thank you for your reaction and much love from the UK x

[@TheStickyBerry]

I had the honor to meet Chester and had back stage passes where i got to meet the whole band. At the time i was going through some pretty bad depression and had certain dark thoughts i was considering. Chester some how knew when he looked at me and gave me the biggest hug that felt like it went on forever. he told me that everything will be ok and that i need to learn how valuable i am and don't ever believe that I'm not. i am so happy for that experience that i will never forget, i know have a wife and a daughter who mean the entire world to me and i can never express how thankful i am to the entire Linkin Park band for their music who helped me continue my life and help shape who i am today. they were one of my biggest inspirations growing up and they will forever be apart of my life

[@scissorthief5119]

If it weren't for LP and Bright Eyes I wouldn't be here anymore. LP was my first favorite band, they awakened me from being a kid who hears music to a man who LISTENS to music. If they hadn't set the blueprint for how to get your feelings out in music for me, I would have been gone like 15 years ago. RIP Chester.

[@shogunsam1731]

You’re killin me with this… I’m a huge fan. I cried when he died… I’m hearing this song for the first time… I’m crying again… he was a truly special.

[@TananJess]

The biggest part isn't even knowing personally but what he stood for to be so broken and eternally tormented and hurting within still gave his all for the happiness of others, genuine souls.

This song hits me hard on April 12th 8:00 until April 13th 4:00pm I went through a 32 hour long neurosurgery. I found out later that of all the complications they had mid surgery ! Should have had a stroke and been left in a permanent coma. Somehow someway the the blood clot dissipated and toward the end of surgery they were reversing the anesthesia , that when I died ! It took them several minutes to get me back. In this state , I somehow was able to speak with friends of mine who had passed way several years before I went through this surgery. I told them , well guys I guess I’ll be joint you shortly! It felt I spoke with them hours and then my eyes open up , and I’m hearing people in the operating room yelling my name. Saying oh my god we got him , can’t believe we got him back. It’s hard to believe how much of this life changing event I can remember .

We have cared for foster children and adults that have been abused and mentally ill. Often they hide their pain by acting fine but deep down they are so much in pain. It breaks my heart seeing what he went through. Trauma and abuse is bad and it hits to your core. Thanks for sharing.

[@ginalynnt09]

I don't understand why showing emotions from things that move you is a bad thing. Mike always said this song was meant to be an uplifting song. But once chester passed away, it kind of became about him. I can't count how many times I've seen this video and cry every single time. Nothing wrong with showing some emotions!

[@quillingmama]

I have the feeling he knew he was saying goodbye to all. Wish... that isn't possible hope we can begin to see it coming more because he did this. If nothing else maybe the song will get others to reach out

[@SR-71BlackbirdA2]

I suffer from depression, and I'm being correctly treated after YEARS, and this song describes perfectly what it is. And also it's a message: take care of your friends and LISTEN to them, before it's too late. Personal experience.

[@teresaunderwood2632]

Thank you for sharing that. I have suffered my entire life and few believe it.

In the really black moments, knowing that SOMEONE would care is enough to stay your hand. He knew how important that feeling could be, and wanted to put it into the world for anyone who needed it. This song has actually saved lives.

[@stephaniewade2973]

BP you nailed it my guy, this song was written by Mike for a woman that was somehow on the team that dying of breast cancer. Then they performed it on Jimmy Kimmel in memory of Chris Cornell (it was heart wrenching) and Chester was barely able to get through the performance. Chester was gone just a short time later and they released they made this video after his passing so it was made in memory. From what I have heard, the concert footage shown is one of his final shows.

It really helps that he shows us he can relate to us and that we matter. I wish I could of seen LP live but never got the chance. I hope Chester is up in heaven and can see how much he still matters and he is loved. Have you reacted to Leave Out all the Rest or Sharp Edges.

Ok, been waiting for this reaction. He”s talking about Chris Cornell, they were very close like brothers and very very sad. On Chris Cornell “s birthday the following year he took his own life, the same way Chris did!! He”s talking about Depression and mental health just because you can’t see it, doesn’t mean it isn’t there. Very very sad and emotional and very much missed, both of them!!

[@SelvesteSand]

The song isn't about Chris Cornell, and it wasn't Chester who wrote it. Mike wrote it to a friend of his who died, like Mike wrote most of their songs, and it was recorded well before Chris died. But they did famously dedicate a performance of it to Chris. They were scheduled to play two of their new singles at a live TV show, IIRC it was Heavy and either Battle Symphony, which was intended to be later single, or maybe Invisible or Talking to Myself... And then either on the day of the show or the day before, Chris died. And after they had played Heavy or whatever it was they played first according to plan, they were talking backstage and decided they needed to play One More Light on their second appearance, paying tribute to Chris rather than promoting the album. Mind you that at that point, OML was not supposed to be a single. Only after Chester's death did it suddenly get a lot of attention, with fans connecting to it over his loss, and then the plans for the last few singles from the album were scrapped and OML chosen instead, as a tribute to Chester.

[@Cluvsangels]

@@SelvesteSand Ok, thank you for correcting me. I, thought it was what I had said, but thank you for letting me know the real reason for the song. I, really appreciate that info.

[@katnapper1]

I don't care whether you do a reaction video to it or not, but you owe it to yourself to watch the Jimmy Kimmel performance tribute of this song for his good friend Chris Cornell right after Chris' death. I't an emotional journey that Chester takes throughout that song, yet he was brave enough to perform it in front of that many fans for his friend and put it all out there. How he was able to keep it together as well as he did is amazing. His screaming plea at the end is absolutelty haunting especially now knowing that Chester was soon to follow. Mental health and support for thse struggling doesn't get the light that it should. "Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it isn't there." RIP Chester, your light was brilliant and burned out too soon.

Then i was blessed to see Linkin Park live during the Metallica Summer Sanitarium Tour and it was one of the greatest moments in my life. They were and still an amazing band who has touch so many people and when Chester Died it was felt near and far. I miss their music i miss feeling that moment i know they will never be able to replace him but would love to see them again one day.

This is a tough one…😢 Such a cry for help. And the band’s live performance of this song on Jimmy Kimmel is so beautifully sad.
