The thing about Chester was, it wasn't just his technical ability that was on display. His voice had a very unique personality. Whether he was belting out a scream, or whispering. He had this underlying fragile, almost angealic tone. He had a vunerability to him that could touch you right to your core. There are other amazing singers, ones that have even better ability than Chester even. But I can't think of any other singer that had that vunerable quality, but could make it sound strong.

[@BehindTheBeatReactions]

so true!

[@CristalO88]

Love this comment

[@clairwu1909]

Sing stories about vulnerability with strong voice. Chester's voice perfectly fit the meaning of LP soldier. Also like LP's diverse music genres, he displays multiple possibilities of singing. LP always try to do the different. It is terrific and I really enjoy and appreciate all the changes!

[@ZetsubouZolo]

this is exactly it and also why I prefer nu-metal screamers over deathcore, speedcore whatever stuff, the nu-metal screams are so unique and full of the singers personality which make them "brutal" due to the emotional honesty while bands like lorna shore and stuff just go for pure tehcnique and all sound the same, just trying one up each other who can make more bizarre sounds in a track but that's not brutal to me that's just funny. Chester put his heart in his screams and still sounding like himself

[@xlReap64]

And that's what I crave, for myself, wish I had a voice as beautiful and powerful as his was, you are so missed Chester🕊💙

[@kirstiefossitt2582]

Linkin Park wrote this song 3 days before leaving for Japan, a quick festival tour they did in the middle of writing for their 3rd album. The lyrics were finished on the flight over to Japan! This is only the second time it was played live (the first being the night before in Osaka). I was in Japan to see them play three times and this song was amazing, the energy was so good and by the third show I was singing along! Such amazing memories for me!

[@BogdanDarkValetGorbatyuk]

Я вырос на песнях Linkin park, когда я был подростком мне подарили диск meteora, много слушал изучал, в итоге стал самоучкой вокалистом.

[@jaygeoc]

QWERTY was performed before What I've Done was released. The vast majority of the fanbase was coming from the sound of their Hybrid Theory and Meteora albums. So they were used to songs like QWERTY by that point.

[@WesleyAPEX]

I never liked their sad meek pop music. Everything after MTM sucked and most of MTM sucked basically everything except Given Up and No More Sorrow.

[@mariamorra7863]

Chester bennington is the best vocalist of all time. So versatile, so powerful. No one like him.

[@sadiekincaid5310]

When this concert happened What I've done wasn't out yet. I don't know if What I've Done was even written yet. They were actually still recording the Minutes to Midnight album. Minutes to Midnight didn't come out till 2007. Mike and Chester actually wrote this song's lyrics on the plane to Japan where this concert was. Their big songs at that point were Faint, In the End, Numb, One Step Closer, Points of Authority, Breaking the Habit, Somewhere I Belong, and Papercut. When this concert happened they only had 2 Studio albums out with one remix album. They also had the album Collision Course out that they did with Jay Z. This song wasn't on the Minutes to Midnight album. It was only released on a special album that is only released in their fan club LP Underground.

[@BehindTheBeatReactions]

dope thanks!

[@DemonLordRaiden]

Was just coming to give this context and saw you did it way more in-depth, good shit.

[@sadiekincaid5310]

​@@BehindTheBeatReactionsMike had just done his Fort Minor album the Rising Tide when this concert happened. He did 2 concerts that day. 1 with Fort Minor and 1 with Linkin Park. Chester actually performed with Mike on the song Where did you go since the female performer wasn't able to make it for the concert in Japan.

[@Zen.Aku4]

About Mike "scream" on the chorus, there are few live from 2007 we can actually here him better and he nailed the gang vocal.

[@BehindTheBeatReactions]

def gonna check it out! love detailed backing vocals!

[@shikarifox4337]

Hope Mike's been working on harsher vocals since he does have a fairly nice hmm, semi-scream in one of the Already Over performances.

[@wobblysauce]

He is just enjoying himself, learning the new song.

[@OrdinaryCritic]

Mike was interacting with the crowd, he could be screaming, but it would be more of a call to the audience to rock in unison.

[@BehindTheBeatReactions]

Totally!

[@jakeepping9268]

Mike shinoda is linkin park, he writes music lyrics plays the guitar piano and drums, plus a producer, he had another rap group Fort Minor, solo album and a new rock track called Already Over, he started as a rapper but also sings

[@BehindTheBeatReactions]

Correct!

[@chrisstyles4630]

Errr he wasn't the only one to write the lyrics they ALL WROTE the lyrics

[@fnordcj3024]

7:00 Mike is doing quiet, soft vocals throughout many parts of Chester’s.

[@tpraccoon4860]

If you listen very very closely, mike it actually in the background of the screams. He’s actually doing something. It was gives Chester’s screams that melodic sound, cuz mike is the back ground giving it support

[@BehindTheBeatReactions]

Yeah!!

[@TheEclecticBeard]

This late in their career? Minutes to Midnight was the 3rd album before doing a complete change in sound for the proceeding album and the song QWERTY was released on an LPUnderground cd between Meteora and Minutes to Midnight and was included if I'm not mistaken on the Deluxe and international releases of Minutes to Midnight. There's songs from Living Party and The Hunting Party released after this that have some very heavy songs and are very under rated in their discography.

[@sadiekincaid5310]

One of their songs that doesn't sound like a Linkin Park song is My December. It is a soft song that Mike Shinoda wrote on their tour bus on the way to Nashville Tennessee to record it for a rock Christmas cd with quite a few different artists. It is perfect to listen to when getting ready for bed. If you want some really heavy Linkin Park songs listen to the Hunting Party album. It is a heavy rock album that did because that is they all wanted to hear at that time. Linkin Park is their own genre of music because they don't fit into any one genre of music. Another good band to listen to is Dead By Sunrise. It is a rock band that has a connection to Linkin Park. I won't say what the connection is to keep it a surprise. Here is 4 of my favorite songs from Dead by Sunrise and they are Let Down, Crawl Back In, Walking in Circles, and Condemned. They only released 1 album as a band.

[@BehindTheBeatReactions]

dope we will check em out! Thanks for watching!

[@agustinmalo6051]

Bro love every recommendation and you guys gotta do crawl back in from dead by sunrise, you’ll enjoy that for sure 🔥

[@mayplay_2468_2]

I love LP and Dead by Sunrise.

[@EBReacts]

This song was originally on a LPU (Linkin Park Underground) cd. It was between Meteora and Minutes to Midnight. This wasn't that far into their career. Tbh it's pretty early into their career and on like the 3rd fan record for their LPU members cause even after Minutes to Midnight they had 4 more commercially successful records.

[@prestondeters5093]

To go from harsh to extremely clean so easily is incredible.

[@hishamsheriff9936]

I definitely recommend you check out The Catalyst and Blackout. Both are from their 2010 album A Thousand Suns, which was their most experimental album. Both feature Mike and Chester singing, while The Catalyst also has a good amount of gang vocals. They were both performed at Madison Square Garden in 2010, and both just show how wide Chester's vocal range was. I doubt you'll get many others recommending Blackout, as it is quite a deep cut, but I do think you guys would be interested in it as it's one of the first songs they did without any guitars whatsoever. Chester also does a bit of a sing-rap too

[@BehindTheBeatReactions]

We will check it out! Thanks!

[@fabibienchen]

I‘ll watch all linkin park reactions. But… do the live version of each song. They were a blast live! Nothing comes to linkin park live energy 🤗

[@BehindTheBeatReactions]

So true!

[@MeloMP4]

This song was a demo they made and decided to play at this festival last minute. It was available along with the live version from Tokyo and a few other songs on a LP Underground CD from 2006 right before MTM dropped. So we were all used to Meteora LP during this, imagine 12 year old me when this dropped. My mind was blown. LP 1999 - forever.

[@milestoad325]

QWERTY is from ''Linkin Park Underground 6'' album. Great video

[@BehindTheBeatReactions]

Thanks!

[@WoblerCz]

Our hearts still broken💔

[@cjacobo122]

As a Linkin Park Fan , you guys are wrong, the song was never in a Studio Album . It just a Demo song

[@Xx3cesar]

Now it’s a studio song 😉

[@tssb7]

You guys are a great watch. Like the person above said Faint rock Am ring 2007 is amazing for another heavy song. I’d also Highly recommend listening to “The little things give you away” - live Oeiras Alive 2007. It’s one of their soft songs but his singing is amazing and in my opinion one of their top 3 songs. ✌🏼

[@BehindTheBeatReactions]

you bet! Thanks!

[@pratyushvaibhav8718]

If you guys listen to their discography, Mike puts his vocals (toned down, distorted, or just to add accent and tone). Like Throughout the verse of New Divide Mike is singing along in the background. But in songs like Given Up, Mike won't sing along but add accents in the end of every line (eg 'AND NO ONE CARES' in the second verse). He is doing the same thing here. Screaming Lies and Rice can sound similar, but Mike just saying the word Lies adds that clarity to that word in live setting.

[@BehindTheBeatReactions]

That's dope. Thanks!

[@fe_svn]

This song was first played by Linkin Park way back in the Meteora/Hybrid Theory era.

[@markc266]

You can hear Mike backing up Chester clearly on every “LIES”

[@AlrightokayAO]

Mike is doing back-up vocals lol. If that is the fault in this then I think we are in good hands boys.

[@rogergomez4653]

Angel and demon at the same time, heaven and hell, insane!

they did write that song in 12 hours flight in japan.

[@BehindTheBeatReactions]

Wow dope!

[@SupremoSaber]

Thanks for that! I love your reactions!

[@Rodeo-iz7cg]

I remember hearing this song and was blown away and it was released BEFORE minutes to midnight. Then minutes to midnight came out and I loved that album but was kind of disappointed they didn’t go the heavy route like they did in QWERTY.

[@BehindTheBeatReactions]

Yeah gimme the HEAVY!

[@ruialex314]

How did I never hear this? Wow thank you for this video

[@Erixdiego]

I love how Mike was motivating the crowd. In Linkin Park they were fans of each other as artists and friends, sometimes they used to highlight Chester Bennington, sometimes Mike Shinoda, sometimes Mr. Hahn, even Dave Farrell or Brad Delson. It was so cool.

[@BehindTheBeatReactions]

Absolutely! The camaraderie and support among the members of Linkin Park was truly inspiring. It's amazing to see how they uplifted each other and created such powerful music together.

[@cjreneau19]

Our generations Freddy Mercury is Brendon Urie. Chester is something else. RIP to the GOAT.

[@milad3072]

I see Linkin Park, I click and like in no time. RIP Chester🤍✌

[@chrisoakleyfx]

This song was later released as Behind Your Lies, it appeared on an LP Underground record and I think maybe on the deluxe version of Minutes to Midnight as a bonus track. Awesome song, i think it was fair to not put it on the album as it aounds quite different, but by itaelf its such a cool song! That switch up from screaming to hitting those high notes back and forth, only Chester 🥲 love the drums on this track too!

[@BehindTheBeatReactions]

So amazing! Thanks for watching

[@mrpumperknuckles1631]

I have the deluxe version and this didn’t make the cut… black birds beat this into the album…I think they done the version that was promoted for the album but never made it…

[@gomi350z]

[@malexander4094]

Chester and his Grey Daze band mates were set to revisit and release music to honor the 20th Anniversary of their intial material. The music is absolutely phenomenal.. Chester left us with so many beautiful and powerful song's, from Grey Daze, Linkin Park, and Dead By Sunrise....

[@PenneySounds]

This is a low effort track they threw together to have something new to play for a show since their third album wasn't done yet. Far from their best work. But it is the first pure rock song they released, and their first rock-focused album followed right after.

[@ianadams-holecek2640]

I really like their old stuff, but some of the remakes they did of old songs with Chester's vocals are good too.
