@@KalligLegacy All I can say.. Just wait till they back to the game.. With the recognition that Emily has now? Dead Sara will be BiG if not a Massive band..
I might be a little bit younger than the typical Linkin Park fan with my 25 yrs of age, but I've been a diehard fan for 14 years now. I've listened to LP every single day ever since, and they are the only group I’ve never gotten bored of. I never had the chance to see them live, and that was one of the worst things possible for me. Then they announced a tour date for Hamburg, my hometown, but I wasn’t able to get a ticket during the presale. On the day of the show, a friend of mine called me and told me there was someone who had a ticket left for me. Two hours before the show, I got it. I wasn't ready for what that night had in store for me. It was a blast, the best night of my life, and a dream came true. I'm so grateful I was able to experience that energy there.
When you wait for that 17 second scream on Given up but then hearing the 12 seconds scream on the Heavy is the crown, I think this should end the hate. No one is replacing Chester cuz no one can, that's why she didnt even try that scream on given up, but she did at least a 12 seconds scream on her own song. She is trying to make us and chester proud. Well done
At least 15 if we talking about record.., I’m sure she can do 17 and Chester could did 18.5 or more but it doesn’t matter. 😂 it’s not about competition with Chester or comparing him it’s about future and I like it❤
Brad put out a statement somewhere talking about how he was not able to deal with the loud environment of live shows anymore and that large crowds made him uncomfortable. So he is doing creative stuff with the show, setlist, light show, basically all things production. He also does studio stuff and of course music videos.
Given Up - this was her least impressive instance of this song. The LA and NY shows were better for this song specifically. Maybe she was saving it for Heavy is the Crown.
I was at this concert. I sat in the third row under the roof and you couldn't hear Emily at times because the audience was singing so loudly. It was just great. The chants with Linkin Park and Emily were so beautiful. I've never been to a concert with such energy. ❤❤❤ When the band came in, the whole audience stood up
@@Roguenjosh It was the best concert I've ever been to and have been to a few rock concerts and festivals. But it wasn't just the band that delivered, but also 200% of the audience
After hearing Heavy is the Crown, I am even more excited for the new album! I feel like when the new album comes out, all the naysayers will be forgotten.
People need to remember, that she had to learn, memorize and perfect years worth music in an extremely short period of time. And she has done it amazingly. Remember she started out as a 14 year old fan like the rest of us. She said that Chester was one of her Idols and is the reason she sings like she does.
When the Hamburg and London crowd were chanting Emily's name hopefully gives her the impression that the fanbase like her and it's just a vocal minority of haters.
I will never understand people who are saying there's no emotions in her singing.. I still can't hold my tears during slower songs, there's everything. And regard to her voice cracks, I have to agree with you. I totally love it.. that scream at the end of Waiting For The End is one of my favorite moments.
I really want to shoutout Colin, he's an absolutely incredible drummer. Never missing a beat and being perfectly in time for 2h straight is insane. I'm sure he could be on the level of a Chris Turner if he tried.
@@MinglingwithAI Rob was an amazing drummer, my favorite member and he's the reason i got into drumming. But to say he was at Chris Turner level is insane.
@@MinglingwithAI absolutely agree. Didnt wanna sound like a prick. We all love rob and he'll be missed in Linkin Park. Damn this band has always meant so much to me since i was introduced to them in 2001
Well, technically it's hurting her voice. You can hear her "real" voice underneath the fry scream, which is a hard thing to pull off healthily. If she's losing breath support for just a second, it's all going to fall apart and she's going to damage her voice. I'm not saying she can't scream, I'm just worried she'll hurt her voice in the long run using the technique she's using. When I heard Heavy is the crown for the first time my jaw literally dropped to the floor.
@@ChasingxRaindropsi don’t know how old she is but there is place for improvement, look at oli Sykes from BMTH who when from one of the worst scream vocalist (technically, always loved his vocal) to someone who has a pretty much perfect scream
@@artzaphy7148 she turned 38 this year. I don't know how long she has been doing this style of vocals (Maybe she has done some in Dead Sara). She definitely sounds awesome. Hope she can keep that up. I'm really excited for the new stuff
@@gabrieleichembergue1075 depending on how much you blend fry sensation with your real voice, it can damage your vocal folds if you don't do it correctly. Normally, fry screams have less "voice" in them because you push air up through your vocal folds. The best example I can give you is Chester himself. In his screams his real voice was much less present. I'm not comparing Chester to her, just the technique. They're completely different and their anatomy is completely different.
I am so happy.They sound so good.Emily is a superstar.The new song is amazing.I can't wait for the new album.Linkin park is backkk❤.Also amazing reaction.Loving your videos so far.
After seeing them live in LA, Lost in the Echo really stood out to me as one of my favorite songs in her voice. It was just a refreshing change up to the song and breathed new life into the song.
@@Roguenjosh Her clean vocals are just so good, live she sounds amazing. Her screams don’t translate as well through video as they do in person, but they’re pretty darn solid. The more she develops her screams, she’s only going to get better. We even get a glimpse of it in the new song of what she’s capable of. I can’t wait to see what the future holds.
I was at their show in 2010 in LInz, Austria and Crawling and In the End were "crowd" songs. There was about 10k people in that hall it was one of the best feeling I experienced in my life.
i was there and let me tell you that it was incredible. The crowd was so loud and so up for it. it was hard to hear emily and mike at times. Best concert I've ever been to hands down.
Waiting for the End must really mean a lot to her, she gets emotional each time she sings it. In London she really cried quite a bit when singing this song.
One of the cool things about this tour is that it is thematic, almost like a concept tour: it's about something breaking and then being rebuilt. Kintsugi, the name of one of the transitions, is the japanese art of fixing broken ceramic by using precious metals - the idea is not to hide the imperfection, but highlight it in a way that makes it _more_ .
I was there. In two days 1700km in car. But was worthed! And that was perfect! And that screaming Emily, Emily, Emily from crowd. Oh got! And new song? For League of Legends? Thats is actually dream come true...
The audience was so loud during "In the End" that I couldn't hear Emily anymore, but I was also singing my soul out! What an amazing show this was, and I was part of it! 😍
Fun fact Mr. Hahn had a gopro strapped to his chest the entire concert. He posted small snippets of it on his IG stories which looked so cool tbh. I would love to see the entire concert from this pov. I really hope they release the footage.
You need to watch her doing Given Up in LA Kia Forum! That was AWESOME! Chester himself could often not do the 17sek scream live, so i am completely impressed by her in the LA show! And here we get her scream in Heavy is the crown! YES!!
"I feel in a weird way like at peace with how right it feels" So well said. But at the same time I'm lost for words how happy and nostalgic and yet moving forward it feels.
It’s so amazing to have a band take almost a decade off and come back with a new singer and not miss a beat. Two new songs and they are both so good. This new album is going to be hot. Lava hot.
I was waiting for your inevitable reaction to one of their live shows. Honestly the only thing racing through my mind when listening to this new LP perform is "The world is healing and I want to cry tears of joy". God Emily sounds great; Even though I did not expect LP to return and for another singer to attempt to honour chester's legacy, i'm glad she is the one to do it When I was really young (like 10 to 11) LP came to Singapore to perform during the F1 season. My dad was a huge Linkin Park fan so he brought us to see the show, and the one thing I regret about it all was not appreciating it as much as I should have at the time. It was around the period when New Divide was one of their newest releases and that was one of the only highlights I remember because I was so young. Looking back, it was the only time LP came to my country and I wish I was old enough to actually remember that entire show. The brightside was that that concert made me a bigger fan of LP than I already was and LP became the definitive artist that I listened to on repeat during my formative years.
Never going to forget that moment when they played a brand new song. It was most perfect getting introduced to it live. For that reason alone heavy is the crown will always be one of my favorite LP songs
Brad's reason for not touring anymore, from what I've read, is just that he's been more introverted and isn't as comfortable in large, loud crowds as he used to be. Not much more than that. He still wanted to be in the band, so they just got a touring guitarist so Brad can keep doing all the non-crowd work. Linkin Park being compared to the Wiggles is not something I ever thought I'd hear 😂 After her nerves got the better of her in Waiting for the End during the first reunion show, hearing her absolutely *nail* one of my favorite LP songs now... it brings so much joy to my heart 💗 She may not have done the 17 second scream on Given Up, but she did an almost 11 second scream for Heavy is the Crown, so... yeah 🤘 I've always preferred the Reanimation remix of My December to the original; the original just never hooked me for some reason. But this version... Emily and Mike's acoustic ballad version... is absolutely stunning. Between this and her Lost ballad, I need them to include at least one ballad on every album from From Zero onwards, please and thanks. Her voice is *so beautiful* with the softer ballads 💗 I agree: Heavy Is The Crown is already better, in my opinion, than Emptiness Machine. I also agree about that rising tone in the chorus; there's something about it, after the relatively monotone lines before it, that just *hit.* I want to say "hits beautifully", but I've already called her voice beautiful, so I need a thesaurus 😂
@@Roguenjosh Yes, from what i read, brad wasn't always comfortable in loud spaces, which is also the reason he always was wearing the big Headphones on Stage...
@@dekode1857 The conflicts brad had with it aren't well documented but are there. He was always the least talkative of the band, and the few times you see him in an interview situation even its obvious he's not hugely into it. But on stage, even when you know why the big headphones, etc, you can see the joy and happiness in the moment, in the art, in the revelry. Its unfortunate its become to hard for him cause Im sure some part of him would love those bursts of the good emotions back, but it also makes total sense. And its so cool this whole thing where he's still involved. Cause it means that he can, likely, if he ever has those moments and is on location where there will be a show, at least step on stage and play with his friends for a song or two if he wants. Which is something I could see happening now and again, but good for Brad for taking stock of himself and being honest and open, and awesome of the rest of the guys to figure out a work around where he can still stay a key player in his own way, but avoid that live stage stuff if its that sort of struggle for him.
Can´t wait to see them live in São Paulo (Brazil) nov. 15. Tickets sold out in 20 min and I GOT IT! FINALLY get to see my #1 band live, been decades of trying to live this moment! So excited.
This was filmed just a few seats to my left. In the End was the craziest thing ever - the crowd was SOOO loud and sang everything so perfectly. Craziest thing I've seen in a long time
That version of My December is amazing. I could not be happier with everything. It just feels right and warms my heart. I will be here for every live reaction to full shows you do of LP. Thank you man it's great experiencing with you.
1:05:09 the highlight of the show. That version of Lost is breathtaking. Sometimes we forget than an alternate take on the song can bring all the emotions out in a positive way. I am so happy that they decided to do it in piano form. Because when you analyze Lost and its lyrics, its a heavy song.
Loved watching your reactions and emotions Josh - I'm 1000% in too! I can't stop smiling and never thought we'd get to experience the rush of LP again. Emily is SUCH a good fit, bringing her own style and vibe - she's killing it out there, and My December has me in pieces every time - we so need it as a release. The joy and energy of the band, especially the huge smile of Mike performing again is so heartwarming. Beyond grateful for this gift. "This is what you asked fooooooooooooooor!!! 👑🔥🖤
I remember the day that Chester died. I had just weeks earlier gotten together with my girlfriend and she told me she had volunteered at a festival here in Norway just to see them live the year before. I sadly never got to see Chester live, but if LP comes to Norway again. I'll be there.
Maaan... Im not gonna lie.. I watched this Live from Hamburg before like... 3 or 4 times.. And I was vibing to all the songs, and i was soooo happy.. But I really wanted to see your reaction the the whole set. But this time... Idk why this happend.. Some of the songs.. Literally just... idk if I can say this like that but destroys me emotionally... Like when i heard Waiting for the end I just realized that... They back... They back after 7 long years after the tragic death of Chester and now they playing songs AGAIN in front of what... 20? maybe 40k ppl on this Arena? I literally realized that and I started cryin like never before.. Seein how happy there are, The crowd, and How the crowd accpeted Emily... Same with songs like My December, Friendly Fire, LOST man.. I couldn't watch without cryin.. Like I had to stop the video few times to take a small break to watch that to the end.. But it was worth it.. Im soooo sooo fuckin happy that they back, that they started new chapter, I am sooooo Happy that Emily is now a Permament part of LP and the rest of the LP Family.. Sooo happy about that.. I hope im gonna be able to go to their concert next year if the back to the UK.. God... Im soooo Happy.
I've watch all the live shows from this tour and it it just keeps improving. Emily is such a good fit and Mike's on fire! LP is creating the magic again!!!
Yeah I don’t think that song is her strongest. Something about the vocals in that song messes with her. She does amazing on everything else though and she is getting better at The Catalyst compared to her live stream performance where her voice completely went out on her. There are so many factors that can mess with your voice as a vocalist. It’s why I always say if I ever perform in a band, I’m playing an instrument like drums or guitar. The voice is a fragile instrument that needs a lot of care when performing.
yeah i enjoy listening to her but the crack at the beginning sounded like it might have hurt, hope she takes care of her voice as i want her to continue being part of the band. probably she will not have this problem when they start doing the new songs and less of the older ones.
Yeah! I was waiting the past few days for your reaction. I love your video’s❤ I have never been able to go to a concert of LP with chester but from the start a huge fan! I’m from the Netherlands and I got tickets on saturday on ticketswap and with a lot of luck. I cried my eyes out for an hour!! So me and my Brother drove to Hamburg. When the show started we both had tears in our eyes again! I could imagine how it would be. But this was SICK!! Emily her voice is even better in real life. We looked at each other lot of times like holy shit! You could feel the love, emotion from everyone and embracing emily. LP is back 🧡 beyond happy. I never leave comments anywhere but I had to. Sorry for my spelling* I did my best haha
1:33:33 Like Mike said in the first stream. Chester is still in the band, he lives inside our hearts. I know he didn't say it like that but when an entire arena gets this loud you can't deny it.
I went to the September 16th show in Brooklyn, NYC and it was AMAZING!!!! Sold out Barclays Center all standing and singing along for 2 hours. It was magical. P.s. I lost my hearing after the show for a good 3 hours, lmfao!
She did a longer scream in her NYC performance of Faint with the line "I won't be ignored", it felt like such a statement that yes, Emily won't be ignored. So when she didn't do the long scream in Hamburg, at first I was low-key disappointed but still satisfied.... That is until, Heavy is the Crown played and holy shiiiii.
Nice thank you for sharing, and Josh previous video I watched I was dissapointed when you said OMG she can't sing, She's nailing every song propably she was stress the first show witch it happens we are humans. subscribed
I absolute love and enjoy you reactions to Linkin Park shows, cant get enough of this new but already familiar sound, and I love your reactions and aven the happy tears =)
Dude. I was at London last night. I'm typing this message at the 12:17 mark where you say "if they don't come to Adelaide I'll have to travel". I'm going to say this using one word. "Travel". I first saw LP back in September 2001 at London Arena and seeing them last night was like seeing them for the first time all over again. Incredible.
Every time she performs Waiting for the End.. you can see how much it means to her. So stoked to see them next time they come around my area. Everyone just seems happy to be back
i was there! it was just mindblowing.. Emily is awesome!! LP is back.. it feels unreal.. can´t wait for next year.. and the album.. getting 40 years old... they just made this year unforgetable..
You asked for it! I am 41.. I’ve been a drummer in various bands of various genres.. Metal/Hard Rock/ Alternative have been my favourites! Was never a Linkin Park fan till NOW!! Like WTF was I thinking?? I think Emily Armstrong is amazing! I have been down a rabbit hole for the last two weeks and it’s been incredible! Seeing numerous reactions to the Emptiness Machine that are so genuine and emotional really tugged on the heart strings! I don’t really know where the hate is coming from! Anyways keep up the great work! 🤘✌️
Enjoy all the LP content coming from ya mate. Like you, I am super hyped about the return of LP and their continued evolution. I can not wait for the album and for the tour when they get down here to Aus.
I LOVE Emily's voice... Wow... she can carry the old songs and the ones written for her are even better for her style. I HOPE this is a new era and start. And seeing the joy on Mike's face when they are live is ABSOLUTELY saying a TON!
I got the pleasure to watch them live in NYC, lemme tell you her vibes and singing is powerful, she can deffinately nail everything, I think that she is being reserved but also getting comfortable! Loved the reactions, binge watching them all!
One clip after one of the shows. She looks so stoked about how well the show went. She was like. I don’t know about you but I am not going to sleep tonight. She you can tell she was in her element. Lying from you is one of my Favourite songs by them. And she killed it. She gives me the chills in a good way. I can believe they found her. She is a queen. They are back.
I've only seen Linkin Park once and it was for the LA show of their new tour! The setlist was pretty much the same except for Keys to the Kingdom instead of Heavy is the Crown. Cant wait for their real 2025 Tour which should include more songs from their new album.
I wonder if the claps sounded in time for the people clapping, but because of the sound traveling and the speed of sound, it sounded off for people far away from each other. That was the kind of stuff we had to be careful about in marching band because our band was so big
I'm watching this reaction all the way from South Africa and it feels like I was there. Awesome concert and Emily is just nailing it. Also, can we all just give some love to Colin who is just smashing it. So hyped for the new line up
I've listened to the first stream, the NY show and this show. She is improving so much from show to show! She is really finding her space and it's awesome to hear! Also let's not forget these are recordings from phones and the performance sounds great still!
I love Chester, but Emily? She`s something else, too! From what I heard till now, both the new songs and the live performances of the old LP songs, I`m just blown away. Didn`t think there was a singer out there that could catch the Chester-energy and still bring something new to the band. I was wrong: The new songs are classic Linkin Park and I love them!
Hey, Roguenjosh you should definitely keep reacting to live shows on where they performing for 2024/2025. I been a linkin park fan since 2004 and I’m happy their are back and Emily is a great edition to the band and they will do good later on and hopefully with new albums being released too and your reaction is awesome.
You were caught with your pants down for My December like we all were. I saw the livestream for the first concert and had the same reaction, what a beautiful performance, I couldn't believe what I was watching, it got me choked up
For all the talk on Emily etc Who,in my opinion is getting better and better. I just want to give a massive nod to whoever designed the stage and lighting. The whole production is fucking incredible
I think the best way to say what Brad is going to be still doing for Linkin Park, still a main member from behind the scenes, recording and stuff but not Touring
I was in Hamburg. First time Linkin Park live and it was absolutely fantastic. Everyone was singing and dancing from the first second and i can't wait to see them again. Hopefully they come back with more dates for Germany and Europe in 2025. Emily is absolutely awesome.
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who hears all the add libs in my head from the live in Texas DVD literally played that thing on repeat I still have it too❤❤❤
Oh wow, that’s awesome! If you’re going to watch and react to full Linkin Park concerts too, I’m ready to stay on this channel basically forever 😂 It’s so nice to share the emotions of their music with someone! It’s so much better than watching the recording alone 🫶 Waiting for your reacting to new song video. That was awesome and I'm sure it become new hit! Emily: ❤❤
1:04:30 Düsseldorf 2008 Dortmund 2010 - First row Shaking hands with Chester and Mike during In the End and catching Joe Hahns Towel, still got that one framed and not washed on my wall lmao Cologne 2014 - Bought VIP, met the Band, got my Limited Edition Meteora Record signed Oberhausen 2014 - Met the Band again thanks to the LPU Hamburg 2024 - Well yeah.

Lying from you is one of my Favourite songs by them. And she killed it. She gives me the chills in a good way. I can believe they found her. She is a queen. They are back. I never got to see them when Chester was around. I need to pay close attention if they come to Canada. He voice make me so happy.
I was going to tell you to watch this concert! Absolutely gutted i couldn't attend, i was flying on holidays the same day and nothing i could do about it :( But this concert is soooo good. The way they support Emily. Best concert by far for now. We Germans know how to celebrate a good band ;)
Emily gets better and better with the old Linkin Park songs in each performance. At first, her voice would break several times, but I suppose it's just a matter of time before she feels fully comfortable with the songs. I really like her as the new vocalist; she has an amazing voice. ❤
Ever since the new era of LP was dropped i get choked up. Linkin Park is my favorite band of all time as well. I can finally say i might get to see them live even if its not Chester. This new era is so awesome. I am all in and doubling down on LP 2.0. Chester is rocking hardcore with the new LP
Anyone who says she can’t sing or scream is tone death. She’s crushing it now and you can see how much more comfortable she’s getting. I hope to see them live bc the performances and crowd reactions have been awesome! 🤘🏼

So sick!
I think a lot of us felt a lot better during that first show when we could see Mike come out smiling. I knew then that it would be amazing.
It was just amazing! and the way management treat fans, amazing! definitely worth the two flights to get there :)
The concert was amazing :) Lucky that i got tickets ^^
Me too🎉
Emily was such a great choice. She sounds incredible
Loving it more and more

The KIA Forum version was pretty close to Chester’s “Given Up” performance.

I had a seat too but never sat down after the show began. The audience had such a great energy, it was beautiful.
After hearing Heavy is the Crown, I am even more excited for the new album! I feel like when the new album comes out, all the naysayers will be forgotten.
They'll still be there, but eventually they'll move on to something else to be angry about and take their noise elsewhere

I am so happy.They sound so good.Emily is a superstar.The new song is amazing.I can't wait for the new album.Linkin park is backkk❤.Also amazing reaction.Loving your videos so far.
Hey thank you so much!
The balance you strike from enjoying and commenting is perfect for me. Love it!
After seeing them live in LA, Lost in the Echo really stood out to me as one of my favorite songs in her voice. It was just a refreshing change up to the song and breathed new life into the song.
Loved how it sounded here!
@@Roguenjosh Her clean vocals are just so good, live she sounds amazing. Her screams don’t translate as well through video as they do in person, but they’re pretty darn solid. The more she develops her screams, she’s only going to get better. We even get a glimpse of it in the new song of what she’s capable of. I can’t wait to see what the future holds.
I was there! And I Loved My december, the fact she startet tearing Up aswell. The whole Stadium cried
I absolutely love your enthusiasm for the new lineup. Thank you for your genuine reactions 💜🤘🏻
Ditto that.
Yes!
I honestly think that give "in the end" to the crowd is amazing
Imagine being there, 17 thousand people singing in unison
I was at their show in 2010 in LInz, Austria and Crawling and In the End were "crowd" songs. There was about 10k people in that hall it was one of the best feeling I experienced in my life.
i was there and let me tell you that it was incredible. The crowd was so loud and so up for it. it was hard to hear emily and mike at times. Best concert I've ever been to hands down.
Waiting for the End must really mean a lot to her, she gets emotional each time she sings it. In London she really cried quite a bit when singing this song.
One of the cool things about this tour is that it is thematic, almost like a concept tour: it's about something breaking and then being rebuilt. Kintsugi, the name of one of the transitions, is the japanese art of fixing broken ceramic by using precious metals - the idea is not to hide the imperfection, but highlight it in a way that makes it _more_ .
Love this insight and take, tx!
It was really cool and emotional show ❤
P.S. thanks for choosing my video for reaction! 🙌🏻
Thank you for your video... you did amazing job. It was an amazing show and I am happy i could see it
I was there. In two days 1700km in car. But was worthed! And that was perfect! And that screaming Emily, Emily, Emily from crowd. Oh got! And new song? For League of Legends? Thats is actually dream come true...
She’s a beast also she does insane on her songs heavy is the crown is an absolute banger loved that they threw a long scream in there
The audience was so loud during "In the End" that I couldn't hear Emily anymore, but I was also singing my soul out! What an amazing show this was, and I was part of it! 😍
Fun fact Mr. Hahn had a gopro strapped to his chest the entire concert. He posted small snippets of it on his IG stories which looked so cool tbh. I would love to see the entire concert from this pov. I really hope they release the footage.
You need to watch her doing Given Up in LA Kia Forum! That was AWESOME! Chester himself could often not do the 17sek scream live, so i am completely impressed by her in the LA show! And here we get her scream in Heavy is the crown! YES!!
The New York concert was even better. She cracked in GU but she delivered an 11sec in HITC at the end of a two hour concert. She is amazing!
Ignorant question here: what's GU and HITC? Sorry.
@@xenbuff „Given Up“ and „Heavy is the crown“
"I feel in a weird way like at peace with how right it feels"
So well said. But at the same time I'm lost for words how happy and nostalgic and yet moving forward it feels.
It’s so amazing to have a band take almost a decade off and come back with a new singer and not miss a beat. Two new songs and they are both so good. This new album is going to be hot. Lava hot.
I was waiting for your inevitable reaction to one of their live shows. Honestly the only thing racing through my mind when listening to this new LP perform is "The world is healing and I want to cry tears of joy". God Emily sounds great; Even though I did not expect LP to return and for another singer to attempt to honour chester's legacy, i'm glad she is the one to do it
When I was really young (like 10 to 11) LP came to Singapore to perform during the F1 season. My dad was a huge Linkin Park fan so he brought us to see the show, and the one thing I regret about it all was not appreciating it as much as I should have at the time. It was around the period when New Divide was one of their newest releases and that was one of the only highlights I remember because I was so young. Looking back, it was the only time LP came to my country and I wish I was old enough to actually remember that entire show. The brightside was that that concert made me a bigger fan of LP than I already was and LP became the definitive artist that I listened to on repeat during my formative years.
Never going to forget that moment when they played a brand new song. It was most perfect getting introduced to it live. For that reason alone heavy is the crown will always be one of my favorite LP songs
Brad's reason for not touring anymore, from what I've read, is just that he's been more introverted and isn't as comfortable in large, loud crowds as he used to be. Not much more than that. He still wanted to be in the band, so they just got a touring guitarist so Brad can keep doing all the non-crowd work.
Linkin Park being compared to the Wiggles is not something I ever thought I'd hear 😂
After her nerves got the better of her in Waiting for the End during the first reunion show, hearing her absolutely *nail* one of my favorite LP songs now... it brings so much joy to my heart 💗
She may not have done the 17 second scream on Given Up, but she did an almost 11 second scream for Heavy is the Crown, so... yeah 🤘
I've always preferred the Reanimation remix of My December to the original; the original just never hooked me for some reason. But this version... Emily and Mike's acoustic ballad version... is absolutely stunning. Between this and her Lost ballad, I need them to include at least one ballad on every album from From Zero onwards, please and thanks. Her voice is *so beautiful* with the softer ballads 💗
I agree: Heavy Is The Crown is already better, in my opinion, than Emptiness Machine. I also agree about that rising tone in the chorus; there's something about it, after the relatively monotone lines before it, that just *hit.* I want to say "hits beautifully", but I've already called her voice beautiful, so I need a thesaurus 😂
Loved all of this! Thank you
@@Roguenjosh Yes, from what i read, brad wasn't always comfortable in loud spaces, which is also the reason he always was wearing the big Headphones on Stage...
@@dekode1857 The conflicts brad had with it aren't well documented but are there. He was always the least talkative of the band, and the few times you see him in an interview situation even its obvious he's not hugely into it. But on stage, even when you know why the big headphones, etc, you can see the joy and happiness in the moment, in the art, in the revelry. Its unfortunate its become to hard for him cause Im sure some part of him would love those bursts of the good emotions back, but it also makes total sense. And its so cool this whole thing where he's still involved. Cause it means that he can, likely, if he ever has those moments and is on location where there will be a show, at least step on stage and play with his friends for a song or two if he wants. Which is something I could see happening now and again, but good for Brad for taking stock of himself and being honest and open, and awesome of the rest of the guys to figure out a work around where he can still stay a key player in his own way, but avoid that live stage stuff if its that sort of struggle for him.
Can´t wait to see them live in São Paulo (Brazil) nov. 15. Tickets sold out in 20 min and I GOT IT! FINALLY get to see my #1 band live, been decades of trying to live this moment! So excited.
I'm relieved to know i'm not the only one who thought Leave Out All The Rest is such a great lullaby!
Haters are gonna be running on fumes at this point 😂 this song fucking SLAMS
This was filmed just a few seats to my left. In the End was the craziest thing ever - the crowd was SOOO loud and sang everything so perfectly. Craziest thing I've seen in a long time
That version of My December is amazing. I could not be happier with everything. It just feels right and warms my heart. I will be here for every live reaction to full shows you do of LP. Thank you man it's great experiencing with you.
I forgot how many times he said “this is my favorite song” and I completely got you, LP is back!!
1:05:09 the highlight of the show. That version of Lost is breathtaking. Sometimes we forget than an alternate take on the song can bring all the emotions out in a positive way. I am so happy that they decided to do it in piano form. Because when you analyze Lost and its lyrics, its a heavy song.
funny that is had 300.000 views
there were 15.000 tickets and over 300.000 were in the online waiting queue that didn´t get a ticket.
Loved watching your reactions and emotions Josh - I'm 1000% in too! I can't stop smiling and never thought we'd get to experience the rush of LP again. Emily is SUCH a good fit, bringing her own style and vibe - she's killing it out there, and My December has me in pieces every time - we so need it as a release.
The joy and energy of the band, especially the huge smile of Mike performing again is so heartwarming. Beyond grateful for this gift.
"This is what you asked fooooooooooooooor!!! 👑🔥🖤
Most of the time the crowd was so loud and energetic I couldn’t hear Emily singing live. That was such a powerful evening
"This may or may not be a new song!"
😂 ah thank you!
Love your Reaction! You so 🤗❤! Emily is great! Love and peace from the witchplace in harzmountain germany
I remember the day that Chester died. I had just weeks earlier gotten together with my girlfriend and she told me she had volunteered at a festival here in Norway just to see them live the year before. I sadly never got to see Chester live, but if LP comes to Norway again. I'll be there.
Maaan... Im not gonna lie.. I watched this Live from Hamburg before like... 3 or 4 times.. And I was vibing to all the songs, and i was soooo happy.. But I really wanted to see your reaction the the whole set. But this time... Idk why this happend.. Some of the songs.. Literally just... idk if I can say this like that but destroys me emotionally... Like when i heard Waiting for the end I just realized that... They back... They back after 7 long years after the tragic death of Chester and now they playing songs AGAIN in front of what... 20? maybe 40k ppl on this Arena? I literally realized that and I started cryin like never before.. Seein how happy there are, The crowd, and How the crowd accpeted Emily... Same with songs like My December, Friendly Fire, LOST man.. I couldn't watch without cryin.. Like I had to stop the video few times to take a small break to watch that to the end.. But it was worth it.. Im soooo sooo fuckin happy that they back, that they started new chapter, I am sooooo Happy that Emily is now a Permament part of LP and the rest of the LP Family.. Sooo happy about that.. I hope im gonna be able to go to their concert next year if the back to the UK.. God... Im soooo Happy.
I've watch all the live shows from this tour and it it just keeps improving. Emily is such a good fit and Mike's on fire! LP is creating the magic again!!!
I have goosebumps rewatching this...I was there live. I now slowly realize how incredibly lucky I was. Goosebumps. All over!
May I ask how much you paid for a ticket?
"Leave out all the rest" really did it for me. I couldn't hold it in anymore. I just burst remembering how Chester spoke to me thru that song itself.
i’ve always noticed she struggles a little bit through the beginning of The Catalyst other then that she always kills it!
Yeah I don’t think that song is her strongest. Something about the vocals in that song messes with her. She does amazing on everything else though and she is getting better at The Catalyst compared to her live stream performance where her voice completely went out on her.
There are so many factors that can mess with your voice as a vocalist. It’s why I always say if I ever perform in a band, I’m playing an instrument like drums or guitar. The voice is a fragile instrument that needs a lot of care when performing.
The only thing she still struggle with is the high note in WFTE
yeah i enjoy listening to her but the crack at the beginning sounded like it might have hurt, hope she takes care of her voice as i want her to continue being part of the band. probably she will not have this problem when they start doing the new songs and less of the older ones.
Yeah! I was waiting the past few days for your reaction. I love your video’s❤ I have never been able to go to a concert of LP with chester but from the start a huge fan! I’m from the Netherlands and I got tickets on saturday on ticketswap and with a lot of luck. I cried my eyes out for an hour!! So me and my Brother drove to Hamburg. When the show started we both had tears in our eyes again! I could imagine how it would be. But this was SICK!! Emily her voice is even better in real life. We looked at each other lot of times like holy shit! You could feel the love, emotion from everyone and embracing emily. LP is back 🧡 beyond happy. I never leave comments anywhere but I had to. Sorry for my spelling* I did my best haha
1:33:33 Like Mike said in the first stream. Chester is still in the band, he lives inside our hearts.
I know he didn't say it like that but when an entire arena gets this loud you can't deny it.
your word "pressure is gone", totally agreed 100%
honestly this was the best reaction i have seen so far.
I love that the new songs so could easily of been meterora era LP
They are bangers. I miss the earlier slightly heavier days of LP
I think they come back 😉
But don't forget, the boys gettin older 😅
I went to the September 16th show in Brooklyn, NYC and it was AMAZING!!!! Sold out Barclays Center all standing and singing along for 2 hours. It was magical.
P.s. I lost my hearing after the show for a good 3 hours, lmfao!
She did a longer scream in her NYC performance of Faint with the line "I won't be ignored", it felt like such a statement that yes, Emily won't be ignored. So when she didn't do the long scream in Hamburg, at first I was low-key disappointed but still satisfied.... That is until, Heavy is the Crown played and holy shiiiii.
Nice thank you for sharing, and Josh previous video I watched I was dissapointed when you said OMG she can't sing, She's nailing every song propably she was stress the first show witch it happens we are humans. subscribed
I absolute love and enjoy you reactions to Linkin Park shows, cant get enough of this new but already familiar sound, and I love your reactions and aven the happy tears =)
Dude. I was at London last night. I'm typing this message at the 12:17 mark where you say "if they don't come to Adelaide I'll have to travel". I'm going to say this using one word. "Travel". I first saw LP back in September 2001 at London Arena and seeing them last night was like seeing them for the first time all over again. Incredible.
Every time she performs Waiting for the End.. you can see how much it means to her. So stoked to see them next time they come around my area. Everyone just seems happy to be back
I was there the crowd was so loud it was insane! We chanted Emily-Emily twice and each time she became a bit like overwhelmed it was beautiful!
i was there! it was just mindblowing.. Emily is awesome!! LP is back.. it feels unreal.. can´t wait for next year.. and the album.. getting 40 years old... they just made this year unforgetable..
I actually sat here tonight and watched the whole thing, enjoyed your commentary too! I liked and subscribed as you asked...
You asked for it! I am 41.. I’ve been a drummer in various bands of various genres.. Metal/Hard Rock/ Alternative have been my favourites! Was never a Linkin Park fan till NOW!! Like WTF was I thinking?? I think Emily Armstrong is amazing! I have been down a rabbit hole for the last two weeks and it’s been incredible! Seeing numerous reactions to the Emptiness Machine that are so genuine and emotional really tugged on the heart strings! I don’t really know where the hate is coming from! Anyways keep up the great work! 🤘✌️
Enjoy all the LP content coming from ya mate. Like you, I am super hyped about the return of LP and their continued evolution. I can not wait for the album and for the tour when they get down here to Aus.
I LOVE Emily's voice... Wow... she can carry the old songs and the ones written for her are even better for her style. I HOPE this is a new era and start. And seeing the joy on Mike's face when they are live is ABSOLUTELY saying a TON!
I got the pleasure to watch them live in NYC, lemme tell you her vibes and singing is powerful, she can deffinately nail everything, I think that she is being reserved but also getting comfortable! Loved the reactions, binge watching them all!
One clip after one of the shows. She looks so stoked about how well the show went. She was like. I don’t know about you but I am not going to sleep tonight. She you can tell she was in her element. Lying from you is one of my Favourite songs by them. And she killed it. She gives me the chills in a good way. I can believe they found her. She is a queen. They are back.
I've only seen Linkin Park once and it was for the LA show of their new tour! The setlist was pretty much the same except for Keys to the Kingdom instead of Heavy is the Crown. Cant wait for their real 2025 Tour which should include more songs from their new album.
I wonder if the claps sounded in time for the people clapping, but because of the sound traveling and the speed of sound, it sounded off for people far away from each other. That was the kind of stuff we had to be careful about in marching band because our band was so big
I'm watching this reaction all the way from South Africa and it feels like I was there. Awesome concert and Emily is just nailing it. Also, can we all just give some love to Colin who is just smashing it. So hyped for the new line up
Absolutely great to see them enyoing being on stage again. And especially Mike freaking out knowing such great musicians in his back
Apparently they wanted to do "Keys to the Kingdom", but switched in "Heavy is the Crown" on the fly. So it was not planned beforehand.
I loved every moment of the concert again. Emily was amazing.. I hope they come to Hungary again!!!
I've listened to the first stream, the NY show and this show. She is improving so much from show to show! She is really finding her space and it's awesome to hear! Also let's not forget these are recordings from phones and the performance sounds great still!
I love Chester, but Emily? She`s something else, too! From what I heard till now, both the new songs and the live performances of the old LP songs, I`m just blown away. Didn`t think there was a singer out there that could catch the Chester-energy and still bring something new to the band. I was wrong: The new songs are classic Linkin Park and I love them!
Hey, Roguenjosh you should definitely keep reacting to live shows on where they performing for 2024/2025. I been a linkin park fan since 2004 and I’m happy their are back and Emily is a great edition to the band and they will do good later on and hopefully with new albums being released too and your reaction is awesome.
You were caught with your pants down for My December like we all were. I saw the livestream for the first concert and had the same reaction, what a beautiful performance, I couldn't believe what I was watching, it got me choked up
Not even a month in and The Emptiness Machine is already a concert anthem, they were so smart to make their new songs so goddamn catchy.
I was at the Brooklyn show and they were awesome and Emily killed it and they showed her alot of love. Can't wait to see them again.
For all the talk on Emily etc
Who,in my opinion is getting better and better.
I just want to give a massive nod to whoever designed the stage and lighting. The whole production is fucking incredible
here in Brazil, it’s going to be just like you mentioned, with the crowd right in front... it's going to be insane! I'll be up front :)
Greets from Nuremberg. I like your reacts. LP had so much Fans in Germany. Emilia is wonderfull.
You have to watch the London show now! Incredible performance and an incredible crowd
***I LOVED what LP was ... and I LOVE what they are now***
I think the best way to say what Brad is going to be still doing for Linkin Park, still a main member from behind the scenes, recording and stuff but not Touring
Love to watch your reactions!!! Emily is great. New divide and lost in the echo fit her voice so well!!
I was in Hamburg. First time Linkin Park live and it was absolutely fantastic. Everyone was singing and dancing from the first second and i can't wait to see them again. Hopefully they come back with more dates for Germany and Europe in 2025. Emily is absolutely awesome.
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who hears all the add libs in my head from the live in Texas DVD literally played that thing on repeat I still have it too❤❤❤
Every. Time.
Oh wow, that’s awesome! If you’re going to watch and react to full Linkin Park concerts too, I’m ready to stay on this channel basically forever 😂
It’s so nice to share the emotions of their music with someone! It’s so much better than watching the recording alone 🫶
Waiting for your reacting to new song video. That was awesome and I'm sure it become new hit! Emily: ❤❤
1:04:30
Düsseldorf 2008
Dortmund 2010 - First row Shaking hands with Chester and Mike during In the End and catching Joe Hahns Towel, still got that one framed and not washed on my wall lmao
Cologne 2014 - Bought VIP, met the Band, got my Limited Edition Meteora Record signed
Oberhausen 2014 - Met the Band again thanks to the LPU
Hamburg 2024 - Well yeah.
One clip after one of the shows. She looks so stoked about how well the show went. She was like. I don’t know about you but I am not going to sleep tonight. She you can tell she was in her element. Lying from you is one of my Favourite songs by them. And she killed it. She gives me the chills in a good way. I can believe they found her. She is a queen. They are back. I never got to see them when Chester was around. I need to pay close attention if they come to Canada. He voice make me so happy.
I was going to tell you to watch this concert! Absolutely gutted i couldn't attend, i was flying on holidays the same day and nothing i could do about it :(
But this concert is soooo good. The way they support Emily. Best concert by far for now. We Germans know how to celebrate a good band ;)
Emily gets better and better with the old Linkin Park songs in each performance. At first, her voice would break several times, but I suppose it's just a matter of time before she feels fully comfortable with the songs. I really like her as the new vocalist; she has an amazing voice. ❤
I bought tix for Chicago August '25. I can't wait... Will live vicariously on UA-cam in the meanwhile...
Mike's rapping is aggressive on the new song, like earlier LP. And Emily CRUSHED it.
Ever since the new era of LP was dropped i get choked up. Linkin Park is my favorite band of all time as well. I can finally say i might get to see them live even if its not Chester. This new era is so awesome. I am all in and doubling down on LP 2.0. Chester is rocking hardcore with the new LP
Saw the show in London. Experience of a lifetime!
Anyone who says she can’t sing or scream is tone death. She’s crushing it now and you can see how much more comfortable she’s getting. I hope to see them live bc the performances and crowd reactions have been awesome! 🤘🏼
