      @@cashprinter5000 That may be so, but Chester was the vocalist for 20 years or more, so when people think of Linkin Park, they think of him as the frontman. Whomever they get to replace him, no matter how talented they may be, will always be compared to him. Case in point: look and William Duvall and Layne Staley in Alice in Chains. People have talked about a greater variety in the themes in the songs (although that could be because the core of the band is in their mid-50s and has experienced more stuff as opposed to when they 1st started) and how the harmony between the two vocalists that AIC is so well known for is still there, but Duvall cannot match Staley's charisma and vocal power.

    My guy. I literally felt this on a spiritual level. Chills, goosebumps, hair on the back of my neck standing up, teary eyed, the whole 9. That doesn't happen very often, but this one did it. You took the one song that perfectly exemplifies my teenage years, and fused it with the song that has come to define my 30's. As fun as your other your covers are, this one is, without question, your greatest masterpiece.

      go out of your way to see that person.
