I’ll never understand how LP fans can hear a song like this, and then respond to the new LP lineup by accusing Mike of cash grabbing, or anything other than spreading love.
“I made a sock puppet video because it took me months to feel like I deserved to have fun. So I celebrated it, and I have no regrets. I wanted to make you guys smile. You deserve to smile. You deserve to have fun. You deserve to live.” -Mike Shinoda 6.8.18 The light heartedness of the video takes away the edge of the grief and pain in the lyrics. Linkin Park fans will be forever grateful for Mike Shinoda sharing his grief and journey out of the darkness ❤️ We are so proud of you Mike.
Nothing but love and the upmost of respect for Mike! While the world still mourns, you have found the strength to move forward. Keep your head up brother.
This music is somewhat similar to this one ua-cam.com/video/giMagylDFWg/v-deo.html Guess it's the puppet talent and catchy characters there too, cool lol
I think Mike has enough talent for about 50 artists. He's as good if not better than Chester in his own way. So much respect for mike and the guys. I'm so glad they kept moving forward with music. We are all that much better off for it 💯❤❤❤❤❤
I've been making a comment after every song, after listening to each of them 10 times, .. is that weird? I'm 50 and every song for me is...been there have the t-shirt. I love every single songs of his. I never knew him outside of Lp. I'm blown away by his talent.
mostly because he was placing himself in a position where he could express his art through his songwriting and visual art, choosing to group with those that could best convey the emotion and message in his songs.
Mike. I just want to say you are such a big inspiration to me. When Chester passed away I felt like the ground started crumbling from underneath me. I still find it hard te cope with that loss. I can only imagine what you must've felt like. But somehow, someway you manage to turn it around and keep creative, and keep making music. And that is just, fucking powerfull man. I think I speak for all the fans when I say that your music has helped us cope. You have been a bright beacon of light this past year, for everyone around you, and everyone around the world who was hurting with you. And I just wanted to say how fucking gratefull I am for that. Everyone would've had sympathy with you and the other guys, should you have retreated for a year, or two years or even longer, without reaching out. I mean you lost your bandmate, your vocalist, your best fucking friend. But no, you opened yourself up to us. And you took us in, and helped us process the grief. And that is not just proof that you are a great musician, but also a great man. You didn't leave us in the dark. So we will never leave you in the dark, or the other guys for that matter. Thank you.
I'm also still crying over his passing, just like the suicide of two good friends of mine, but this is Keeping me up. Thanks Lp, thanks Mike, thanks Fanbase. Keep your heads up 💚
True words brother! LP alone got me through a dark childhood alone and now Mike is keeping me on this great path. My 6 year old loves every song. we sing one more light together it's her favourite.
I couldn't decide whether to smile or cry: the video itself is entertaining (it's Mike Shinoda, duh), but the lyrics are an expression of pain for who (Chester) and what (a best friend, a talented bandmember, and all-around kind compassionate person) has been lost, and an expression of heartbreak for the memories that haunt us when someone tragically passes on... And Mike Shinoda: we all miss Chester... You, Brad, Joe, Phoenix, & Rob have our love and support.
This song is not at all about Chester... Mike has said multiple times, he just challenged himself to write a song about ghosts that doesn't say he believes in them but also doesn't say he doesn't believe in them. The song is not meant to be serious or sad, and has nothing to do with Chester's passing. But, I guess he was right... "even when it's not about you, all of a sudden it's about you"
This is Shinoda, without ties and strings and binds holding him back. This creativity, born from ashes that used to be... This is what live for and one of things that makes this man great. I can see his soul that he puts into what he does. Even something as simple as a sock puppet (love ya Boris) is this magnificent.
Linklight check this ground breaking video @ university of California in singing feild nominated lp an life time achievement award ua-cam.com/video/TvJfwxP5jn8/v-deo.html
That's not even close to be "the most sensitive song on the album"... just a fun thing Mike did. He made the music video so silly to show people that it's not meant to be taken seriously (as he had said multiple times)
DRdalaYANG not only making music, also drawing. he's pretty good at everything, singing, rapping, making instrumental music, drawing.. is there anything he can't do? so clever
This song has a vibe that makes me wanna sing along all day. Your editions are unique, you deserve more fame than you got already, you're absolutely great Mike
I feel so good for you who are making your own path through the dark! I hope Dave, Brad, Joe and Rob are alright too, they deserve it ❤ Thank you for having shared your thoughts and turned them into music for us.❤ I hope that Chester's ghost come to you and say "Well f****** done, Mike!".
I did. This song is great, I definitely feel as if it's a song that smiles on my low points of life. So as I smile, I know that my low points of life made me who I am today, but tonight is for my ghost.
They are not deep though? Mike has said multiple times, this song is just a fun thing he did, he challenged himself to write a song about ghosts that doesn't say he believes in them but also doesn't say he doesn't believe it them... People are just over analyzing it, trying to find something deep.
"If you can't have fun doing this, you doing the wrong" Always remember that. You dont have to feel guilty about being happy. No one should. And I guess he wouldn't want that for you and everyone else. He is with you Mike. In dreams and memory and he lives there forever. Much love and support from Germany.
Today marks 7 years gone , thanks to all LP fans it still feels like we're connected to you and the band . May you have eternal peace that you couldnt find in life
This has to be one of the Top 5 songs of 2018. Mike is so underrated. Can't believe that they play shitty pop & rap music on the radio instead of art like this
I agree they need to play more music like this, but I feel pop and rap is just as good. It depends on the song. I do think it sucks they repeat so many of the songs when they could just play new music.
I’ve been looking for this song for 3 years!! I just knew it was called ghost and the melody. It used to always come on after I would put a LP song on while playing W.o.w. I was 10 when I first heard this song.
Mike Shinoda! My toddler boy is obsessed with this video/song.. he is like mom I want to watch the sock song, why the sock is singing? Why the sock has no teeth, why this and that.. to finish... he already asked me to get him a sock like in the video... thanks MiKe!!!
With every new song, my need to buy this album gets stronger. And it was big enough since the first 3 songs. You really poured your heart and soul into these songs Mike. For that I am grateful, as hearing another human being doing so helped me deal with my own grief and pain. I just hope it helped you deal with your inner demons as well. You are not alone Mike.
Mike, I genuinely hope you read these. You deserve all the praise. You are a next level singer/songwriter. Your music has always been way ahead of the curve. Just look at "Lost", it's a 20 year old song, and it feels just ad fresh now as probably the day you recorded it. Hats off to you sir
I'm a new fan - I'm 49 and I'm ashamed to say that I'd got so stuck in my own ways and 'my' music that I refused to listen to anything else. I started listening to a young artist called Jake Munro and became a part of the community he built up, which is a very strong and supportive community and has a great many Linkin Park fans. Many of these fans I am - to be fair - old enough to be the mother of, and they talked about LP and suggested that I gave them a try. So I did. And MAN! Were they RIGHT! I haven't loved a band this much in 30 years! I really didn't think that because of my age, I would integrate into the LP community on the various social media platforms, but they welcomed me with open arms, suggested tracks to watch out for, told me about the history of the band, how it came about, and about each member and explained what each member brought to the group technically. They could have told me to google it, but they didn't - they talked to me and brought Mike (and Anna, of course). I listened to LP's lyrics and they described so many of my own feelings. I started watching Mike's Twitch streams about a month ago and am enjoying them so much and I realised what an incredibly talented man he is. I watch him mix these tracks and how he does it, I have no idea. I don't understand what he's doing - really I don't because I work in the NHS and understand medical things and drugs but have the musical abilities of a rhinoceros. But here's the thing. I have been in three abusive relationships and as a result of the abuse and damage done, not only can I not have children - which tears me apart - but have severe depression. I take a cocktail of pills every day and have seen counsellors, psychiatrists, etc, etc, to 'help'. I've been busily buying LP's back catalogue - yes, I can download it, but I love having the physical CDs in my (very large) collection - and I bought Post Traumatic. That album has helped me more in nine months than many years of counselling ever has done. I can't say why. I really don't know. But the lyrics that Mike has written have touched me in a way that I can't explain, and the progression of the album just....helps. So thank you Mike - and your beautiful Lady, Anna - and the LP community for everything you've all done. You've all helped me so much. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. And I do love the socks... xxx
This song is totally different from the previous songs in the album and Mike, you look much better, much refreshed after everything. I just broke the replay button!!!!
Mike is at a point of no f's given where he just says, screw it, I'm making a video with sock puppets and it's damned good. Such a creative release. I'm impressed by this childish approach.
I heard in that interview with Devo Brown that you literally made those sock puppets with your wife in your kitchen. I can't even find the words to express how is that (awesome? cheeky? right? and like a 1000 other things?), and how weird it is that it feels all natural somehow. I feel like we describe what you have as talent only for the lack of a better word. That cannot express the sheer amount of emotions your stuff evokes, at least for me. It shouldn't be possible to CONNECT this much. Thank you. Thank you so much.
This made me smile. I’m so excited for #PostTraumatic. Please don’t feel guilty for having fun. Thank you for continuing to make awesome art. We are here for you. ❤️
First time I heard this I almost cried. Mostly because it hit home with the loss of my grandma. This had Chester all over it and you guys have been such a big inspiration throughout the majority of my life. Your music gives me hope. It inspires me not to give up. I had to find this out for myself but I hope that through your grief you find happiness because it is everything. He would want you to be happy.
Dude ! This man is makin me like the genre lol BTW Mike, you should not be gulty at all to have fun today. You NEED to have fun and be happy. Just pray for your passed brother everyday, talk to him with smile when you go on his graveyard, because he's lookin at you and he wants YOU to smile. Smile Mike, like you used too.
Raise your hand if even after these years, you still come here all the time to get a big smile❤ I'm forever grateful we had Mike for things like this when we needed it the most.
On repeat! Babe. You did so well! Don’t feel guilty for having fun. Don’t feel guilty for having feelings. You don’t have to be sad all the day. You don’t have to be anything anyone EXPECT you to be. You can smile. You can have fun. You are going through some things, Others need to get that in their heads. You’re allowed to feel normal. You’re allowed to LIVE. The way you go through life is how YOU choose to. Don’t listen to what others have to say. You’re doing such great things. We’re healing with you. We’re laughing with you. We’re having fun with you! You’re such a star. You’re the greatest rapper/singer. I love you so much! You make Chester so proud. He’s smiling right now!! He’s jamming out too. Have a beautiful day you beautiful soul. Btw Mrs oatmeal and Boris will be missed. I like the little muppet at the end of the video! Lol. You’re too funny. You make me laugh and smile. I’m so proud of you.
So well said! Couldn't agree more. He's doing great things, Chester would be so proud. Can't wait for this album to come out, there isn't a bad song on it x
PrincessRiners yeah, they'd be ok if the one puppet didn't have 2 6's for eyes and one for a nose. Sick of satanic symbolism in every fucking music video. It's sad really i loved mike
+Asphyxiate14 Mike made fun of these comments saying that Boris has 666 on his face on twitter. Link: twitter.com/mikeshinoda/status/1005661803433480192?s=21
The song makes me feel so sad but, then the sock puppets make me laugh. It feels like he's trying to make us feel connected to humanity in terms of the sad moments like you can't ignore them, you can't just take yourself out of those moments and forget them but, don't worry there are good moments too that will make you smile so, don't give up.
This entire album is legendary, right now my favorite album ever. It is deep and it's like Mike is taking his fans on a musical journey. My daughter is 4 and knows the entire song, loves the puppet socks XD.

"I've had enough hard days, so i don't want to feel guilty when i wake up and feel like having fun" Right there with you Mike.

I feel you on that...
I’ll never understand how LP fans can hear a song like this, and then respond to the new LP lineup by accusing Mike of cash grabbing, or anything other than spreading love.

Love ya Mike
I wish I could like this statement 1000 times. God living is hard sometimes...
Thank you so much for this.
Helped me get through July 2017
It was full of death and sadness.
You really helped with Post Traumatic.
❤
Nothing but love and the upmost of respect for Mike! While the world still mourns, you have found the strength to move forward. Keep your head up brother.
Of course the socks gonna be mad talented, they're Shinoda's after all.
YESS!!!
This music is somewhat similar to this one

I never knew him outside of Lp. I'm blown away by his talent.
Just picturing Mike below the screen with these socks on his hands is cracking me up.
Jack Pepper same! 😂😂😅
Jack Pepper I really want the BTS footage
Jack Pepper I'd pay good money to watch him make video just for that!
Produces, creates the music, the art is a masterpiece.. the truest form of an artist.
SouL Animation and he makes video clip using socks! So brilliant
It sounds nice, but it sounds like everything else...
HE IS THE BEST! ❤️😍
#MikeShinoda
#Posttraumatic
I remember watching you during my weeb days.
mike is art
Never did I think sock puppets would be so cool
the muppet show?
Why does the sock puppet have 666 on it?
Elijah Solomon maybe his eyes?
I know right ? :)
I think so, but they really did it, what a cool sock puppets
Mike is the only person who could make a good music video with socks.
YESSIR!!! 😎😎😎
So.. other people make videos while barefoot
@@wtc5198 they could be wearing shoes with no socks.
True
Love you Mike!
I really want a version that’s zoomed out a little so you can see Mike sitting below with his arms straight up making the puppets.
We totally need behind the scenes video of this
@@nestacz1447 so true!
I don't understand why mike is so underrated 😥 He is a gem.. ♥️
mostly because he was placing himself in a position where he could express his art through his songwriting and visual art, choosing to group with those that could best convey the emotion and message in his songs.
@@brunsy1990 well said🙌🏻
He made Linkin Park 💙
i love every single lyrics of Mike Shinoda album.....your so good Sir......keep up the good work.....
all heartfelt❤❤❤
For such an upbeat tune, the lyrics are extremely deep
Yeah, quite chilling and dark as well
Thats art for ya
Its shinoda way usually
I like it, remind us life is for fun with all bitter parts
Preach
Agreed
No socks were hurt in the making of this video.
Thank you. :)
😂
I hope Mike sees this and understands that everything he is doing currently is like a breath of fresh air into my life.
Mike-Talent at work-Shinoda
i feel like you, exact word!

You shouldn't feel guilty about having fun. Enjoy the moments which bring joy to your heart. Love your honesty and artistry Mike.
Well said. For me it's easier said than done...
This is like a really deep song but I was smiling through the whole vid.

This album keeps getting better and better .
Ashwin Pandey I know, right?? :D
Just watch till u hear the whole thing lol
Sounds like at the 10 sec mark it’s going to go into the song Somewhere I Belong
This man never ceases to amaze. So happy hes still sharing his talents with us
almost whole album on repeat for 2 years and still didn't get bored. I'm happy that lp is back but I hope that Mike won't give up on solo projects.
This is Shinoda, without ties and strings and binds holding him back. This creativity, born from ashes that used to be... This is what live for and one of things that makes this man great. I can see his soul that he puts into what he does. Even something as simple as a sock puppet (love ya Boris) is this magnificent.
Fusio Bro No, you right. I just feel like Shinoda's talents were over looked sometimes. No disrespect for Linkin Park
really love this one mike, when you sing it just feels right, keep going, we're right behind you :)
Couldn't have said it better myself!
Linklight check this ground breaking video @ university of California in singing feild nominated lp an life time achievement award ua-cam.com/video/TvJfwxP5jn8/v-deo.html
it is so right. i can't get enough of it 😁
Wow didn't know you listened to Mike. Nice to know we like the same type of music
Saw him in concert last night and when he sang this song people had socks on their hands 😂 It was an awesome performance from start to finish!
To
Does he sell the sock puppets at his show? I’m going next month and would like to pick up a pair instead of buying online.
Dwight Lives Matter no, I didn’t see them for sale at the show I was at. Not sure if he’s started selling them since then or not though.
I'm sure people just made them.
THAT SOUNDS SO AMAZING OHMYGOD
My top 3 favorite songs:
1. Ghosts
2. Promises I can't keep
3. Can't Hear You Now
Just unbelievable.
brooding top 1
Can't hear you now goes hard man. Specially that second verse🔥🔥
Mine so far is world’s on fire
Dead on I'd add over again to the list
Crossing A Line ?
when even his socks have talent
Drexyll Durden You mean two eyes and one nose . Because it's the way he draws and the nose is a "c"
😎❤️
I miss Chester so much, he touched Mike in such Way that he is just writing gold lyrics, every song is full of masterpiece in harmony.
Jamez agreed
And i think. Chester. Touched all our LP family hearts
We are with you, Mike... all of us. We love you and thank you for Post Traumatic. I'm more excited for Post Traumatic than the World Cup! Hahaha
JoseFe- Gamer Same tho even though I like fútbol slightly more than football
Comedy relief for the most sensitive song off the record... well played.
What are you smoking
@@nicholasberry8456 he's probably smoking that weed.
That's not even close to be "the most sensitive song on the album"... just a fun thing Mike did. He made the music video so silly to show people that it's not meant to be taken seriously (as he had said multiple times)
Over Again is the most sensitive song from the album and maybe Watching As I Fall too.
Yesss
Never stop making music Mike, you are extremely talented in it.
DRdalaYANG i agree
I Agree. He's good taste music.
DRdalaYANG not only making music, also drawing. he's pretty good at everything, singing, rapping, making instrumental music, drawing.. is there anything he can't do? so clever

I feel so good for you who are making your own path through the dark!

Thank you for having shared your thoughts and turned them into music for us.❤
I hope that Chester's ghost come to you and say "Well f****** done, Mike!".

I'll never look at my socks the same again :P
Aditya I know right😂😂😂😂but it is so awesome though.
Aditya i wish to 😂
Way ahead of you there but its not bc of this video
You can find something for fun everywhere, if you only want :)
Adi 🤣😂
Anyone else smile through this entire video?
no but i felt to cry
I did. This song is great, I definitely feel as if it's a song that smiles on my low points of life. So as I smile, I know that my low points of life made me who I am today, but tonight is for my ghost.
This comment should have wayyyy more likes
Cant say I did....just being honest
No i was fixed on the illuminati symbolism in the vid and the painting at the very beginning when he is moaning about something on his wall.....creepy
Everybody's so distracted by the socks that everyone forgets how deep this lyrics are....
Yes, true
Vennligst, speak for yourself.
Literally almost every comment are about the lyrics...
Lol I mean I'm crying sooooo
They are not deep though? Mike has said multiple times, this song is just a fun thing he did, he challenged himself to write a song about ghosts that doesn't say he believes in them but also doesn't say he doesn't believe it them...
People are just over analyzing it, trying to find something deep.
"If you can't have fun doing this, you doing the wrong"
Always remember that.
You dont have to feel guilty about being happy. No one should.
And I guess he wouldn't want that for you and everyone else.
He is with you Mike. In dreams and memory and he lives there forever.
Much love and support from Germany.

Exactly, no one should feel guilty about being happy. In fact, I don't feel guilty for killing that one guy and being happy about it

This has to be one of the Top 5 songs of 2018. Mike is so underrated. Can't believe that they play shitty pop & rap music on the radio instead of art like this
The ChosenCrib they need to play more of Mike's songs on the radio, from Post Traumatic I mean.
I AGREE!
I agree they need to play more music like this, but I feel pop and rap is just as good. It depends on the song. I do think it sucks they repeat so many of the songs when they could just play new music.

I need this album.

For that I am grateful, as hearing another human being doing so helped me deal with my own grief and pain. I just hope it helped you deal with your inner demons as well. You are not alone Mike.
Mike, I genuinely hope you read these.
You deserve all the praise.
You are a next level singer/songwriter.
Your music has always been way ahead of the curve.
Just look at "Lost", it's a 20 year old song, and it feels just ad fresh now as probably the day you recorded it.
Hats off to you sir
I think I broke the replay button! Keep making amazing music Mike!
Same :))))))
leave some replays for the rest of us bro!!
I got sock ad before the video. Well played Boris, well played.
Its awesome How Mike Shinoda can turn a puppet show in a masterpiece

I really didn't think that because of my age, I would integrate into the LP community on the various social media platforms, but they welcomed me with open arms, suggested tracks to watch out for, told me about the history of the band, how it came about, and about each member and explained what each member brought to the group technically. They could have told me to google it, but they didn't - they talked to me and brought Mike (and Anna, of course). I listened to LP's lyrics and they described so many of my own feelings.
I started watching Mike's Twitch streams about a month ago and am enjoying them so much and I realised what an incredibly talented man he is. I watch him mix these tracks and how he does it, I have no idea. I don't understand what he's doing - really I don't because I work in the NHS and understand medical things and drugs but have the musical abilities of a rhinoceros. But here's the thing. I have been in three abusive relationships and as a result of the abuse and damage done, not only can I not have children - which tears me apart - but have severe depression. I take a cocktail of pills every day and have seen counsellors, psychiatrists, etc, etc, to 'help'. I've been busily buying LP's back catalogue - yes, I can download it, but I love having the physical CDs in my (very large) collection - and I bought Post Traumatic. That album has helped me more in nine months than many years of counselling ever has done. I can't say why. I really don't know. But the lyrics that Mike has written have touched me in a way that I can't explain, and the progression of the album just....helps. So thank you Mike - and your beautiful Lady, Anna - and the LP community for everything you've all done. You've all helped me so much. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
And I do love the socks... xxx
I love your beautiful words. Take care! Wish you all the best!
This song is totally different from the previous songs in the album and Mike, you look much better, much refreshed after everything. I just broke the replay button!!!!
Leo Frederick Agree! That What I Thought! ☺
Drexyll Durden No! It's Not! Actually, You Only Seeing The Puppet Eyes Looks Like 66, Only Double 6, Not Triple 6! You Are Imagine!
Great song mike!!!
Y’all, we must have done something right to deserve Mike Shinoda. And Boris and Miss Oatmeal.
Conclusion: The socks of a talented soul is talented too!
Um... SOUL? Or SOLE?
Mike is at a point of no f's given where he just says, screw it, I'm making a video with sock puppets and it's damned good. Such a creative release. I'm impressed by this childish approach.
Yay, new music! Thanks Mike, you're awesome!
I need to get new socks because mine clearly don’t sing like this.
Average Steve Really? Mine do this daily. They're just normal Gildan brand socks.
You just won the internet with this comment!
😂😂😂
Average Steve 😄😄😄😄
Average Steve i was dri king soda and i almost choke on it when i read ur coment because i wanted to laugh so hard 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I heard in that interview with Devo Brown that you literally made those sock puppets with your wife in your kitchen.
I can't even find the words to express how is that (awesome? cheeky? right? and like a 1000 other things?), and how weird it is that it feels all natural somehow. I feel like we describe what you have as talent only for the lack of a better word. That cannot express the sheer amount of emotions your stuff evokes, at least for me. It shouldn't be possible to CONNECT this much. Thank you. Thank you so much.
Exactly. 👍
This is exactly how I feel. I always connected to Linkin Park, but Mike's solo stuff is a whole other level of connecting for me
I swear, every song from Post Traumatic is going to be a hit! 7 days to go!
Suzy Lu
I'm one of your subscribers, Suzy! Can't wait for the full release! SO stoked!
Suzy Lu we got one week left, comes out june 15th, today's the 8th
7days
😍 love yu Suzy lu 😝
Don’t understand the hate. Creativity isn’t a crime.
What hate? I'm honestly curious, you don't hear much criticism about him in Europe. You don't hear enough about him at all, sadly.
Eva Moor yes
it's a love crime like premature eJack or planB...
You're the best Mike!
*I nod my head when they say I'm wrong.* That puppet movement 😂
Always gets me 😂
We need a "behind the scenes" video for this.
Magda Fachada and bloopers
BORIS
This made me smile. I’m so excited for #PostTraumatic. Please don’t feel guilty for having fun. Thank you for continuing to make awesome art. We are here for you. ❤️
Also cute socks!!!
First time I heard this I almost cried. Mostly because it hit home with the loss of my grandma. This had Chester all over it and you guys have been such a big inspiration throughout the majority of my life. Your music gives me hope. It inspires me not to give up. I had to find this out for myself but I hope that through your grief you find happiness because it is everything. He would want you to be happy.
1. By far, the best song from PT.
2. Who said you need millions to make cool music video? All you need is a talking sock.
Takumi Fujiwara and cute gohst effects
Agree❤️
Most artists you wont like every song they make, but Mike Shinoda is a different story. Never change Mike.
Jacob Knight Mike is the best 😍
Even if u dont like it a 1st it grows on u
This album deserves a "GRAMMY" 🔥
Sania Zafar exactly what i was thinking.
Too good for the Grammys.
Yeah. A 2019 GRAMMY. It's probably too late by now, to even win a GRAMMY anyway.
They won't give it to him. They don't like music people put effort and emotion into. They only like shit music that was made in a day
Sania Zafar Grammy didn’t even honour Chester’s passing that day 😞😞
I lost my dad in late 2019 and I remember him with this song. I miss him every day. Thank you :)
man mike's shocks are hella talented
I know my sock's never sing like that
Shocks... Nice slip! ;)
@@ernestvaldez8631 lol
I wish my socks were meaningful
@@213riteshvig2 don't worry, they are. :)
Now this is the mike shinoda that I know
At the end of the video I realised that I am sitting like a little kid, watching a puppet show, giggling all the time... :D
“when I wake up and I feel I good I shouldn’t feel guilty about having fun, you know.”
these words hit me really hard.
This is probably the most adorable music video I’ve ever seen.
Dude ! This man is makin me like the genre lol
BTW Mike, you should not be gulty at all to have fun today. You NEED to have fun and be happy. Just pray for your passed brother everyday, talk to him with smile when you go on his graveyard, because he's lookin at you and he wants YOU to smile.
Smile Mike, like you used too.
Zoster X what would this genre be defined as?
Simon Hamann trap alternative rap rock edm
Setsu Desu How is this EDM?
Pilot K9 trap alternative rap rock pop*
Simon Hamann
alternative rap and pop rock ??
Спасибо за новый трек Майк! Поднял настроение на целый день!
Mr. Cat, не ожидал, что из русских ютуберов его кто-то слушает.
Кирилл Пруцаков это точно
Он-же тебя не поймёт. :(
*This is Russian laughed*
РАШШШААААААА! Думала, что клип ростоманским будет, а тут чёт даже поплакать захотелось...
Raise your hand if even after these years, you still come here all the time to get a big smile❤
I'm forever grateful we had Mike for things like this when we needed it the most.
Love you mike miss you chester.
Never stop making music mike. Never.
Keep making music Mike. Never stop. You'll always have us.
If you miss Linkin Park , this music Is perfect for you. It gives me the Real Linkin Park Beat Vibe
Red Bloxxer IKR, THE SAME THING I STATED ON MY COMMENT!!!

On repeat! Babe. You did so well! Don’t feel guilty for having fun. Don’t feel guilty for having feelings. You don’t have to be sad all the day. You don’t have to be anything anyone EXPECT you to be. You can smile. You can have fun. You are going through some things, Others need to get that in their heads. You’re allowed to feel normal. You’re allowed to LIVE. The way you go through life is how YOU choose to. Don’t listen to what others have to say. You’re doing such great things. We’re healing with you. We’re laughing with you. We’re having fun with you! You’re such a star. You’re the greatest rapper/singer. I love you so much! You make Chester so proud. He’s smiling right now!! He’s jamming out too. Have a beautiful day you beautiful soul.
Btw Mrs oatmeal and Boris will be missed. I like the little muppet at the end of the video! Lol. You’re too funny. You make me laugh and smile. I’m so proud of you.
Melissa C agreed never feel guilty awesome stuff
So well said! Couldn't agree more. He's doing great things, Chester would be so proud. Can't wait for this album to come out, there isn't a bad song on it x
why am i so attached to these singing sock puppets LOL.
PrincessRiners yeah, they'd be ok if the one puppet didn't have 2 6's for eyes and one for a nose. Sick of satanic symbolism in every fucking music video. It's sad really i loved mike
Asphyxiate14 Seriously?
Stop hatin' on my homie, Boris. He can't help that he has numbers for facial features.
Asphyxiate14 I honestly can’t tell if this is sarcastic or not,
Asphyxiate14 oh , fu*k it's just the way he draws , not illuminati 😒👎👎
+Asphyxiate14 Mike made fun of these comments saying that Boris has 666 on his face on twitter.

Mr Socko retired from wrestling and started his new music carreer, good for you mrsocko
Kovu Lion Isn’t that Boris?
I hear he goes by Boris now
lmao he looks good all cleaned up 😁
I remember Mr. Socko!!! 😀😀😀😁😁😁
The song makes me feel so sad but, then the sock puppets make me laugh. It feels like he's trying to make us feel connected to humanity in terms of the sad moments like you can't ignore them, you can't just take yourself out of those moments and forget them but, don't worry there are good moments too that will make you smile so, don't give up.
Keep dropping fire Mike!
Thanks Mike for make my night much better now. Nice song!
On repeat❤
this is a fkign masterpiece!
This entire album is legendary, right now my favorite album ever. It is deep and it's like Mike is taking his fans on a musical journey. My daughter is 4 and knows the entire song, loves the puppet socks XD.
Chester would be so damn proud if he could hear this!
Daniel Beutler... He can and He does.. I'm sure of it
Doug Gerber me too. So sure he is looking at us and thinks: "God, they're strong."
You from Germany?
B Snowroad oh man.... I just ugly cried at your comment. Right in the feels
I know this wasn't about depression but that opening line speaks volumes to me
Ohh Shiiiiiit! So adorable! 😍😍😍
Thanks for this. This is awesome mike! Keep it up!
We proud of you!
Mikes message in the beginning is beyond what I need to wake up to everyday
