For gods sake thank you for saying it how it is.. some people need to know the reality he fucking hung him self. People wanna pussify it and say “he passed away” no someone might not know and be suicidal and learn how his life ended and decide they wanna reach out for help
The closer and closer his death approached, he became closer to the fans, it's like he knew he was kinda nearing the end, I could be wrong, but I know that his last few concerts he stood right with the crowd and let them sing too
I got their first album in 2001 when I was in the high school, and Chester was inspired me to became a vocalist in my band with my old friends. Chester accompanied my long happy journey since I was a teenager, in college, until I got a good job, and in 2016 I got married. Everything was really really good for me. But then in 2017 Chester gone, it really made me sad. In 2018, I lost my job and my wife. In 2019, I lost my older sister because of breast cancer. In 2020, I lost my sister in law due to complications. She passed away just few hours after I cooked dinner for her. In 2021, I lost my dad when I was in the other city. I even don't have chance to say goodbye. And in 2022, I lost my another sister in law, just two days after we have some fun conversations. I just feel it keep getting worse. But I will never stop hoping that everything will be okay, for me and for everyone around me. God bless you for those who read my comment.
I still have a hard time listening to Chester and Chris Cornell without getting emotional . Thanks a lot for this reaction and hope you 2 have a great day .
I performed this version of the song my senior year for my chorus senior solo as a tribute to him and also as kind of a way of saying goodbye to my past and moving on with my life. Its still the best performance I’ve ever done, and I still watch the video sometimes. Chester meant a lot to me and helped me through the darkest times along with a few other artists. I still miss him
It takes a lot of courage to sing a song like this. I've done it once on whim and it surprisingly went well. I've been singing it for years alone in the car and stuff but singing it in front of people is very powerful. My favorite song I've ever done as well. And the message it sends Is so powerful.
As a man who has dealt with my own mental battles including panic attacks, anxiety and depression, I still cant begin to wrap my head around what level of pain one must feel to get to the point that you will end your own life. I lost everything from battling the addictions that tend to come with mental illness in so many. My career, my family, my home, all gone. Even became homeless for a short time. Had some pretty dark times along the way but never pictured ending my life, even when I felt totally alone in the world. These two men are both successful and loved by their family, friends and millions of fans. I wish I didn't, but I feel an anger towards them for hurting so many people. My sadness lies only with their families or anyone else that have been scarred and will never forget the day we heard they killed themselves. They have taken their music, which used to give such joy and an escape for so many, and now tainted it so it will always a sad aura around it.
@John Mobely, I say this with the utmost respect & I somewhat understand what your trying to say, then again I don't understand at all? I get being sad that we'll spend the rest of our lives without another beautiful lyric from these guys. However, the pain he must have been feeling to hang himself🥺 It's not only at that moment, it's the pain from battling depression for a long fucking time that does you in I believe...I think he was just tired & plus I think Cornell was his best friend and I think all this was the catalyst. To compare your pain & someone else's, it's unrealistic & egotistical. Plus, if you've really did from relentless depression, It simply doesn't work like that. Manson said it best in the The Reflecting God..."This is not your experience"! RIP CHESTER, GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN.
@@angelaforshee4443 I certainly don't think my ego was involved in any way. But it is unrealistic to try and compare their pain with my own. Everyone has their own story for sure. I went to a high school where suicide became an in thing in a way. Lost 5 fellow classmates to it in three years. Have also had it strike my family and a couple close friends who both lost their children to it. Having seen all of this and the lifetime of pain it has left their loved ones experiencing, it is something that just infuriates me when it happens. Thank you for your thoughtful reply Mary.
@@goincoastal28 part of the problem for Chester was that he was sexually abused from the age of 7 to the age of 13 by a family friend who was also being sexually abused as well. Then he was also bullied in school which took its toll on him to the point that he turned to drugs and alcohol to numb the pain. By 17 years old he was doing hard core drugs just so he doesn't have to deal with everything. Then Chris Cornell took his life and that was really hard on Chester because Chris was his friend/ mentor. They both dealt with addiction at some point in their lifes and having both been sexually abused as children.
As much as I love Linkin Park, I thought many of his songs were about someone troubled, and now I believe it was him just trying to deal with mental health 😭
Chester will also be a legend, And his positivity through everything he did made him my #1 hero in life. And I have tried to follow in his footsteps as best as I can to be the nice guy that he was
As sad as it is,it's also awesome 👍👍 how fans could get so close to him & how much energy/ emotion he sings with.I never had a chance to see lp,but I often listen to them, just because the music is amazing & chester had one of the best voices, just amazing 💖💖💖 #ripchester #oneofakind
Still miss him you can hear the pain in his voice 😢 it’s like he’s asking for help, I’ve lost two friends through suicide God Rest anybody who has died through suicide 💙
I take offence. I'm 42 (born '79) and am no where near middle aged yet! lol Brilliant version, I've never heard. I'm totally crying right now. Thanks guys
RIP Chester. He conveyed his true emotions through his art. I can relate, between depression and alcoholism, it can be a lethal combination. I'm blessed to still be standing upright.
This was very short before his passing, it's like he took the time to say goodbye to his fans, because originally this track, or at least this version of it, wasn't on their setlist for that concert!
That was a wonderful reaction this version always make me tear up. Have you heard about Chester’s first band name Grey Daze they just released a remaster album named Amends. Chester’s vocals are the same from 20 years ago but instrumentals are reworked for a modern feel.
Thats so ture in the beginning he was angry had something to prove , no pun but in the end he achieved all he wanted had it all , and still empty where do you go when your at that point , he was tired and just lost hope , so incredibly sad .
@@kevinabraham9260 A Place for My Head started out as Esaul when the band started out, but the "you tried to take the best of me" bridge was not written until the final version for Hybrid Theory. This could have been written by either Chester or Mike. And Mike has credited Chester for several lyrics like Crawling for example.
@@jariemonah again let me clarify I absolutely love Chester and linkin park, but what you just commented is another way of saying…. Mike wrote the majority of the lyrics. Didn’t say Chester wrote none…but he didn’t become more involved in writing lyrics until the first couple albums had already dropped
@@kevinabraham9260 But you're also immediately discrediting the theory that Chester brought any lyrical ideas to a simple bridge where he continuously yells out 10 words.
Shane Pinske they were talking about a concert they went to where Linkin Park was touring with Limp Bizkit and several other groups back when Hybrid Theory first came out. The collab with Jay Z came out in 2004 after their second album had already come out.

This is from the last tour. He killed himself really soon after. So the sadness you're sensing is genuine.
yea that Concert was his last Goodbye... still cant believe it, its very sad

Was going to say im sure this was part of his final performances
@@australiandahlia6460 yeah it was a 2017 concert I think, still so sad about it
@@ethanharrisonn same :,(
@@australiandahlia6460 it was july 6 2017. exactly 2 weeks later he was in heaven. no one expected
More then ironic chesters good friend Chris Cornell took his life the year before and then chester takes his life 20th July Chris Cornell's birthday.

Chester is and will live forever in my heart.

He was SA as a child and as a result he developed severe depression afterwards, and he struggled with this for years and years
Mike shinoda was the main songwriter for linkin park
We miss and love you Chester ❤️ fly high and rest easy 🎤🤘🏽 #ForYouChester

Look at rhe love the crowd gave Chester.
I take offence. I'm 42 (born '79) and am no where near middle aged yet! lol Brilliant version, I've never heard. I'm totally crying right now. Thanks guys
Thank you! Linkin Park is my favorite band. RIP Chester. Miss you. Gone almost 3 years. Seems like yesterday 😭
Heart 💕 of an Angel...
Love this rendition but it hurts to watch knowing what he was going through. 😢 Chokes me up every time!
Chester and Chris were (are) best friends! So sad to lose these amazing people!

Thanks for reacting to this. I’m a big LP fan, but never saw that live version of this song broken down like that. It was so beautiful.
RIP Legend!Amazing song
When you listen to most of the words of linkin Park songs, you realise the meaning of some of them. So sad man. Can't believe he's gone. RIP ❤🤘
Yeah but Mike wrote the majority of Linkin Parks songs
@@kevinabraham9260 indeed. Can't say Chester didn't sing them well.
I have never heard this version, I'm getting choked up too.
I miss Chester.. he was so loved..
he saved millions but millions couldn't save him💔
im a simple man, I see linkin park and I will like and sub.
Tearing up as soon as it starts 😢
Seeing his later performances like this, it's like yeah he knew, he already knew where he was heading.
This version makes you listen to the lyrics even more deeply
Maybe so but fun fact, Mike did the majority of the writing
BREAKS MY FCKIN HEART YO 💔😭💔😭💔😭 his suicide will never be ok yo......

IM VERRY SAD for Chester died
Hey guys just got off a 12 night shift and found your channel. If you haven't seen it yet, you should try the video for Breaking The Habit
Russia loves Chester. Rest in peace.
After hearing about his childhood, alot of the songs took on a different meaning. They are kind of hard to listen to sometimes
The "You tried to take the best of me. Go away." from A Place For My Head sounds like it's definitely for the guy who sexually abused him for 7 years.
