linkin park crawling reaction alex hefner first hearing chester bennington lp
I know I'm not the only one out here that feels this way but Linkin Park is the band that showed me that its ok to not be ok
Feel the same! Love from Argentina
Truth. Made me feel welcome listening to their music
And when you sing those lyrics they mean something... Just great lyrics and a great song from a flawed but super talented young man.
You aren't alone in that brother. Linkin Park helped out out so much growing up and still does!
This album literally saved my life.
Remember what Mike Shinoda said about Chester passing away: "We're trying to remind ourselves that the demons who took you away from us were always part of the deal. After all, it was the way you sang about those demons that made everyone fall in love with you in the first place." That's it, we loved Chester also because his pain and grief he had inside himself... That's what an artist is. Bye Chester.
So true
True but we loved him for the demons because many of us have the same demons , he was a major inspiration in my life so that I knew as a young person it was ok that I wasn’t ok.....his death hurt very much for me and people like me .
Breaking the habit the most touching LP song, i felt myself I cried for a moment
🤘🏻CHESTER🤘🏻
IN THE END IT WAS CHESTER THE MAN WHO CREATED THE UNIVERSE OF LINKIN PARK CHESTER WAS A PHENOMENAL SINGER AND DID PHENOMENAL SONGS THAT WILL NEVER DIE,
NO ONE ELSE CAN REPLACE CHESTER'S VOICE AND TONES THAT HE SANG IN HIS HEART FOR HIS FAMILY AND IN HIS SONG'S FOR HIS FAN'S TO REMEMBER HIM.
CHESTER & LINKIN PARK WILL NEVER LEAVE MY HEART ♥ WHAT ELSE IS IMPORTANT LINKIN PARK IS RATED IN MY TOP 5 BEST BAND'S SO THANK YOU CHESTER FOR YOUR MUSIC UNIVERSE.
R. I. P.
🤘🏻CHESTER🤘🏻
Sounds Illuminati-ish to me
Hey just in case u don't know, CRAWLING won Grammy in 2002 for Hard Rock
Снял с языка.
@@986KuroYuki English please.
It was for best Hard Rock live performance
SexiMexi he just wrote smtg like “i was going to say the same thing”
Good to know
React to crawling acoustic piano, last Chester concert. He is saying goodbye
i was at a concert in belgium at the time in 2017
3 weeks later he was gone and i wouldn,t wan,t to belive it
Yeah, I've been recommending it for quite a while
I was at that last gig and it breaks me every time I think about it or hear it
His fans loved him so much in that live video. So freaking sad.
You should really listen to the live shows of 2017... he does a very emotional version.. its heartbreaking 💔
You know about the whole "cry for help" thing, most of us knew. We all knew Chester had demons inside him, it's what made his voice so special. Everday he was fighting battles, knowing that giving in only once would be the end. And he finally did in the end. But in all honesty, I don't see his death as him losing the battle. I see him winning this battle countless times before.
you are a true fan my dude, I'm glad hearing you said that
😢😢😢😢
Chester never killed himself, Illuminati did it, and it Was Clintons and Podesta, Evil people are everywhere but we just don't see them, also they killed chris aswell, Pray to God for these things happening..
.....this may sound like a bad take. But in a weird way, it feels like Chester found peace. I mean, it is true he fought a battle and won many times but those demons never left.
There are times where I wonder what peace really is when living is such a difficult task cause of so many horrors on the mind.
What is peace then? It's just something to ponder about.
Beautiful man
As a LP fan since hybrid theory dropped after Chester passed I've said the same thing about his lyrics. Its so crazy how sometimes someone's cries for help are so obvious you missed it.
It is sad when the fans find out and fully realize the cry for help but after Chester had passed Mike said the whole band knew about his demons. The music was basically Chester's release; to not lose those battles inside him. The songs hit so much harder emotionally now that it's all in the open
Giving up is the worst for that reason. He screams about ending his life.
But mike was the one that wrote most of the lyrics!
He wasn't crying for help, he had his depression under control. He was killed.
yeah im pretty sure of this aswell, everyone is credited for the lyrics, but I saw an interview somewhere where they say that Mike is the one that writes most of the lyrics for all their songs
Chester Benington....The Greatest Vocalist of Our Generation!
Chester put his heart and soul in to every lyric he ever wrote
I believe Mike did the bulk of the lyric writing.
@@awkwarddoggo05yeah he also did at melody. Almost everything
Chester didn't write as much as many peolpe think but I'm sure he added this thought and such to some songs, reagradless he allways conncets to the songs he sings and that alone is powerful.
@@awkwarddoggo05Chester wrote this whole song lyric-wise
"you know, put someone that you really care about in a position that Chester was in, and it become so real" That's soo true, everyone should see it in that way
Probably one of my favorite songs lyrically by them
Not necessarily. Everybody always misses the bruises on her arm at the beginning. She is in an abusive relationship, bruised and crying filling the sink. By the end, she got out. I always took the makeup in the water going down the drain as all the tears she cried and, since there are no more, the sink empties. Just my two cents.
That what I thinks to. I was in a abusive relationship and this is what it feels like.
@@Cakan So sorry to hear that. I'm with a girl now that was in two. How that happens is beyond me, but I just try to make it better for her daily.
@@Cakan listen to rear view mirror by pearl jam
What about the needle? And the blood in the sink? ❄ breaking ? Reference to walls closing in? Feeling insecure?
I would say the song is about being in an abusive relationship or having been molested or even raped.
This far in and so emotionally deep.
Crawling: hold my beer
The line "To find myself again / My walls are closing in" will always be special for me in this life, that was the moment Chester reached out into the crowd and shook my hand in a concert
I will say it too: react to the one more light live version... You will cry
amazing performance, i second this
He did has that one on his channel. He reacted with his mom.
@@micheler6592 no he didn't. I meant the live version of Crawling performed on the one more light live album.
that song is so beautiful. It really touches my heart.
Agree with this. That version brings a tears to my eyes pretty much every time I listen to it or watch video.
"Against my will I stand beside my own reflection" I always thought this line meant he was forced to face himself and look at himself when he didn't want to
Man, it is sad to realize now that Chester was sending us so many messages through his songs (either with Linkin Park or Dead by Sunrise) which were clearly cry for help, but yeah, we were too late to be with him as he was and still is with us in many situations. I'm sorry for this comment if it is so sad :/
Chester was very aware and open about his mental issues, he wasn't relying on people looking for little cries for help. he saw mental health professionals for 18 years consistently to take care of himself and had great support systems in friends and family
@@gandheezy6163 Im glad you're setting those LP newbs straight.
@@gandheezy6163
That and his breaking point was losing Chris.
Hybrid Theory is a description of depression.
"Is your fear even real? Is it rational?"
My fear is of dolls moving by them selves. Is that rational? Probably not, but if it ever happens it'll be rational then and you can bet your ass that id be out of that room SO fast 😂
My man, you must react to “Leave out all the rest” by Linkin Park, it is pretty much a letter from Chester telling what to do in case he dies, deep one!
about the lyrics, theres a reason why we who were teens then and listened to them say he saved us (not my case luckly) or he took us through our teen years (because this music does that). we all felt this to more or less degree, and he/they helped us feel better and keep going with life.
and thisis why we love him and are sad, he who helped us all, is gone
You should see Crawling with both Chester and Chris Cornell singing, is so good but yet so sad
Agreed, i made that suggestion on an older LP video he did not long ago
He really should see it
I literally just put up the link for this for him in my first comment, I really want him to see and react to it so help me out and hit like on my comment with the link please and thank you
There's more to that....
This album came out just in time for certain emotions to begin making their way in my life and as a comfort during those times of feeling exceptionally low. This is absolutely one of my favorite songs and one that I had on repeat so often. This whole album was great, one of the first where I didn’t skip a track
LINKIN PARK "LEAVE OUT ALL THE REST"
The cries for help definitely aren't something you noticed only in retrospect. When Chester passed it wasn't "No way not Chester" it was "Oh Chester no". A lot of fans saw the pain and understood the pain and understood that when he took his life it was after years of fighting a war we all related to.
Are you seriously just hearing CRAWLING for the first time...😲😲😲
not everyone grew up with linkin park
Nope.. 6:04
6:04
the song that literally saved me and introduced me to the greatest band ever.
Right? I don't even remember which song of theirs I heard first. But I would listen to meteora on repeat to keep from hurting myself
One of the best song from LP .
Oh Alex, that isn't makeup falling from her eyes... She retreats inside herself when the shadow walks in behind her, she won't let her boyfriend touch her, her arms are covered in bruises, she feels distant from everyone else and herself, she cries when she's alone.
If you know what all of this means then I am so fucking sorry, I know it hurts but please take care of yourself first ❤ I've never met you, I'll never know your name and you won't know mine but I want you to know.
I love you.
That crawling in your skin feeling bevause you feel dirty, and you want to escape, but you can't leave your own body. That's how I always took the song too. Thankfully I'm 31 now and happy and healthy. But this music helped save my life, literally at some moments, so I will always listen to it and live it
This album came out when i was in high school....this song in particular brings back so many memories of me and my gf at the time......a beautiful song that has held up 20 years later....this is when I knew Linkin Park was legit....so many good bands from that time Incubus Orgy POD Deftones...ahhhhh i miss those times
RIP Chester, we love you
Missed dearly
The tragedy is that there are crowds of young people who know exactly what he was singing about. And the lyrics verbalize their own thoughts and fears. Fortunately those song probably saved some lives.
There is something about this song that made me feel everything. This song captured how I felt growing up.
I think we all were aware that his lyrics have always been cries for help. It's not something that came to the fans in retrospect, after the fact. We knew he was crying for it, but there was nothing the fans could do about it, sadly :/
Reanimation album next. You'd be the only reaction channel to do it, too.
Yes!! Reanimation would be awesome!! 🤘🏻
My second favorite album, after hybrid theory. Meteors is third, then the rest went downhill, although I respect the exploration of other genres and subgenres. Hybrid theory set the bar for them, and they never met it again.
Kyur 4 th itch
YES!
Reanimation was perfect. My favorite part, though, was how they flipped the energies of two songs from Hybrid Theory, making In The End weirdly upbeat, and dropping Forgotten into this slow, gritty place that fits it so perfectly.
Almost all songs have some sort of cry for help theme when listening to it now. Wait till you hear "Leave out all the rest"
Chester said this was the most difficult song they had to sing ,and the most literal he ever wrote .
Please react to Crawling live (feat Chris Cornell)
When Chester sings this with just Mike playing piano or keyboards, the lyrics really hit hard.😢
Crawling is my favorite LP song. Against my will I stand beside my own reflection. When it comes down to it we always have to face ourselves. No matter what we do.
This is hands down my favourite Linkin Park song. The lyrics speak to me on so many levels, as for years I have been battling depression, anxiety and self-harm. When I heard this song, I knew someone finally got what I was feeling, that he was feeling it too and I wasn't alone in the world feeling the way I did. Breaks my heart that we couldn't save him, he was an amazing, gifted young man who gave us so much. RIP Chester, and thank you for all the lives you saved by reaching out to those who battled internal demons and showing us we weren't alone.
There's something special about watching someone react to this album for the first time. Even more understanding their lyrical content. This reaction made me emotional. im glad you understand why I have this album tatted on me. Why this is my all time favorite band of all time. Thanks for this, Alex.
Lyrically this cuts to the core. This man had felt this way forever. For years. The amount of fight he had in him... to last for his family and friends and all of us. That’s a strength I could only dream of having.
At the time this came out i was in middle school, depression and suicide were not things people talked about. This was considered angst. Looking back now it is absolutely obvious. RIP Chester and hope all the help in the world for the people that need it.
When I listened to this as a teen I knew it was a cry for help. All his music is. It always has been. That's why I was so drawn to it. Bevause it actually captured exactly what I felt back when I was suicidal and struggling with abuse and all kinds of shit.
Longtime fans have always heard those cries. We also know that we couldn't do anything more than be loyal fans.
And now as an adult, it's still true. You're the only person who can fight your demons. Other people can support you, but they can't do the fighting. Chester fought for years. Long enough to give us tons of good music.
Sho I like to think that he never really lost that battle. Suite, his own particular demons may have taken over him, but through this music, he assumed so so so many people like myself to fight their own demons, and that's his legacy.
When I'm say that music from some of these bands you react to, linkin park and evanescence in particular, saved my life, I mean that literally because the 3 more minutes that it took to listen to that song was 3 more minutes I didn't actually go through with it that time. (Wore out a lot of repeat buttons).
We'r always knew it was a very for help. He might have lost his battle, but he helped millions of us fight and win ours
Crawling is is probably to 5 LP songs for me and might be my favorite on Hybrid Theory
Dammnn!I am hearing to this song after so so many years. Yet I haven't forgotten the lyrics and I was singing along with the track.
Just tells me how much I loved LP back then. :D
Memories man... I remember while back in high school (class of 2002!) buying Hybrid Theory at Target because it was cheap and absolutely fell in love with the entire CD. Target used to have a bunch of music from "up and coming artists", they would usually flop but several got big. About a month later I heard their first single "One Step Closer" on the radio and thought "wow, these guys are on the radio now, good, they deserve it!". Hybrid Theory was the first CD I ever bought that I absolutely loved every song from start to finish. If you listen to their entire discography it's incredibly hard to not hear Chester's cry for help throughout it all and it breaks my heart hearing it now. Especially since back then I was in the same boat. Thanks for the great video and reaction.
You should really react to the entire “The hunting Party” album. It’s their 6th one, and could be considered as a return to form. If you consider their evolution form album to album: this one legitimately feels like a prequel to hybrid theory. And the last song “A line in the sand” is arguably their best they ever did. An epic 6+ minutes that close a fucking hardcore album by using EVERY styles they ever played with in the past.
Exactly, The Hunting Party is their best album after Hybrid Theory and Meteora. Period.
I was kind of partial to a thousand sun's and yet I play hunting party alot more lol.
I gave that album a listen because of all the hype about it being a return to form and back to their roots etc. Which was all bullshit. Sounds nothing like old LP. The only prequel to Hybrid Theory is the Hybrid Theory EP and the only prequel to that is Xero.
Mark the graves is arguably better than a line in the sand.
@@PiousMoltar true it's not really like those first 2, but it's still a damn good (and underrated) album imo. A lot of great tracks on it.
Don't forget to check out "Heavy." Also from Linkin Park.
Check out the live "acoustic" version of this song from their 2017 concerts. It's more of a sad acceptance tone than the anger. It's sad, but beautiful.
The tone and mood is spot on. The song is literally what you think it is. If you haven't actually been there, you don't actually know the position they are in. Very hard to explain and there will be no understanding until/if you get there.
Yeah, the lyrics of this song are perfect to me as someone with Generalized Anxiety. The fear does seem to take control and confuse what is real. The endless discomfort and the lack of confidence, all the while you just want to find yourself again. The way you used to be before the anxiety.
React to this song, from One More Light Live
Something to always keep in mind - most LP songs are written mostly by Mike Shinoda, including Chester's lyrics. Mike has said he was sometimes inspired by Chester's past and wrote lyrics he thought Chester would relate to. But sometimes he was writing from his own perspective.
This album has been in my car since it came out, it's just like a "go to" album for road trips.
Check out "heavy" - by Linkin Park, that one really got me.
Also if you want another awesome music video with the woman in from this video, check out - Offspring - Want you Bad.
Chester's hair was absolutely kick-ass. Best scream-singer we might hear for a long time. RIP man - Respect.
The beautiful thing about LP songs is, the lyrics are so versatile everyone can interpret them in their own ways according to their experiences. I related the lyrics for me feeling insecure in school, not being able to fit in anywhere, I tried to be someone I wasn't just to fit in with a 'squad'. that really backfired and I was left all alone. So I learned to be myself and I found real friends in the end. I see other people relating the lyrics to their own experiences and that's so fucking beautiful man! Stay strong and keep pushing yall!
This was the first LP song for me. Finally in the video he was able to get rid of the "darkness" but the reality manifested years later. Love LP 4ever
This is one of my favorites. There are so many amazing songs by Linkin Park. I love listening to them because he literally connected with people through his pain, and that's incredible, not all people are willing to bare their soul for the world the way he did.
This band got me through some very very dark times in my life. Im shocked im even here in 2020. Thanks chester. Rip 🙏
Please listen to "Waiting for the End" by Linkin Park. very amazing song, also "Leave out all the Rest", best song of them for me.
Personal interpretation: I think the song is about the sexual abuse Chester suffered as a child, at the hands of a family friend.
"Crawling in my skin. These wounds, they will not heal"
He repeatedly feels his abuser's touch, Crawling in his skin, and the wounds of the abuse are always there, unable to heal.
"Fear is how I fall, confusing what is real."
He still has a crippling fear of his abuser, which causes him to break down and "fall". The "confusing what is real" part, allot of abuser's tell their victims that the abuse is an expression of love. I feel like this is one of the biggest factors of the psychological trauma that victims of this type of abuse suffer.
The girl in the video 100% represents Chester. It is very subtlety implying (imo) that this girl is experiencing abuse of some kind. Just look at how she acts when the man comes in to touch her. She is frozen in fear.
"Against my will I stand beside my own reflection"
He says as he looks at a mirror and the girl is looking back. Again, personal interpretation, but the amount of symbolism is insane.
As someone who has suffered depression for 20yrs on and off...these songs saved me. They spoke to me, reflected my own internal struggles. There are many LP songs that did this for me, but this and meteora helped me in my teens and early 20s. Still now i can totally relate and feel cathartic...feel the release of knowing i am not all alone, that many of us have a mixed up brain in a messed up world.
Listen when Chris Cornell sings live... Speaking of Chris Cornell say hello to heaven,, Chester Bennington Chris Cornell hunger strike...
"Imminence" made a nice cover of "Crawling" in memoriam of Chester!
Thank you for recognizing us! Linkin Park's song always gave me strength to pull out from a very dark place everyday. 😊 I hope everyone suffering from mental illness find this band and your channel support it. Thank you man😊
How does his voice still give me the goosies! This band was perfection and he put everything in to the music.
It’s not just in retrospect. We all felt it with him.
I think as a collective, we thought that he was exercising his demons through music because that’s what we were doing with him.
We knew instantly that he felt the same trauma that too many of us struggle with daily. He gave voice to his pain and we gave voice to ours through his. Then he carried on with his journey. You can feel the mood shift and growth from album to album. We thought he beat it and now we are left to wonder if he thought he had done all he needed to on earth or if he just had a really bad night where he couldn’t get out of that sinking hole before it buried him alive.
I am 54 yrs old and been to 100+ live shows and Linkin Park was by far the most fun show start to finish I have ever been to.
Listen to the live 2017 version of Crawling. It different but even more emotional
I remember being 10 years old & hearing this song...it was from that point on I heavily relied on LP to get me through day to day life. Ill never be the same.
I remember listening to this song everyday in my way to school (without knowing the real meaning of the lyrics (and just knowing a little bit of English), just loving it so much)... and I was living exactly the feeling of the lyrics, I was being bullied and everyday going to school was awful because I didn't want to arrive there... and now that I listen to the lyrics, knowing English a lot better than before and spotting the real deep emotions expressed on the lyrics... I'm crying...
that's the saddest part of all of this. Chester reached so many with his music, people who needed help, who related to the turmoil in the music. But not once, never once did any of us recognize that his music reached us because he was crying for help, too. we all got so wrapped up in our own problems we didn't help the one person who needed us more than we needed him.
We're sorry, Chester, we miss you T.T
Congrats on 500K!!
Yo should react to Crawling of the One More Light Live, he sang it before he died
You won't be able to hold your tears when you hear the acoustic version of this song which Chester sang live!! It is painfully beautiful. 😣
They look like they're in a PS2, and the vibe reminds me of PS2 too.
Thnx so much Alex 4 this!!!
thanks dude , it's so nice to see someone hearing really to Linkin Park , so much shit have been said about them , and there you come and make people see the deep meaning of each song , not especially for Linkin Park but for each song you share with us , you're listening whith your mind and heart wide open , not everyone can do this .
That is why I love this song so much. I also have depression and anxiety. This lyrics are telling me that you are not alone with those thoughts. Sad that Chester took his own life because of his depression. R.I.P Chester.
This band, Linkin Park, was one of those bands that I listened to when i was at rock bottom. And this song was my anthem, my cry for help when no one heard me. I felt like Linkin Park understood me in every way possible. and for that I am forever grateful. This band saved my life, needless to say it was devastating when the world realized Chester had passed on. I know I broke down and cried. I am so glad you made a reaction to this song. and as a PSA, If you know someone who is going through a really rough time and they are at rock bottom, listen to them and help them out. you might have just saved a life.
I'll never forget the first time I heard this song. Chester's range was phenomenal and the lyrics were so powerful. The year before I discovered SOAD when Toxicity released and Serj has that same soothing singing then yelling/screaming. Chester blew me away and I was a LP fan for life ever since.
A lot of people don't realize how influential this band really was, how it created its own genre in AMVs (literally tons of Anime videos with millions of views), how they were ahead of their time by collabing with an Animation Studio (Gonzo) to make an anime-inspired music video, how they proved their talents by Collabing with one of the greatest rappers Jay-Z, and it's not even touching how crazy talented each member was in their own right.
If you really do enjoy their music, please check out Hybrid Theory EP.
Hybrid Theory was their initial band name but changed it for LP due to not wanting to sound related to another band Hybrid.
I can never listen to Linkin Park the same way again since Chester passing, every song just takes on a whole other meaning.
Linkin Park has been one of my favorite artists since 2001. When I was a kid, I loved singing along with these songs just out of preteen--and then teen--angst. It wasn't until many years later, as I struggled with depression and anxiety, that I fully began to understand the lyrics. "Against my will I stand beside my own reflection".... "This lack of self-control I fear is never-ending, controlling, I can't seem to find myself again."... these are words that I fully empathize with now, for better or worse. I wish I didn't, but hey, at least the music I've loved throughout my life turned out to be relevant to that life after all.
I have always gone back to this song when I am not feeling ok with myself. It helps me to remember it is ok to not be ok.
Such a loss of talent. 😔
Hybrid Theory was exactly what kept me grounded during my darkest times.... Chester, I'm sure, saved millions like me but no one could save him.
This Is my favorite reactions UA-cam channel because i love how you see between lines on the lyrics, finding deep stuff. And how you feel the music, how It moves you in so many levels. Respect Bro. You ARE the Best
React to crawling live! It’s heartbreaking
Thanks so much for doing this album. I have loved it since it came out. Memories come flooding back every time I hear it. Great way to spend my birthday
I know someone who struggles with depression (& trauma & other shit...), who said "I can't fix the hole, but I can grow myself around it" (I hope the translation is understood). Means they can't undo the trauma, but can do things they love and improve, so the 'hole' will be relatively smaller.
Thanks Alex for share Linkin Park.
Thanks Linkin Park and Chester 💔💔💔❤️❤️❤️
You have to see this one when he performed it with Chris Cornell. Gives you chills especially considering how it all ended up.
I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again.... “leave out all the rest” will hit you in the feels. Hard. Real hard.
Man .. you are getting me melancólic with this LP álbum..
One of my favorites ❤
Listening to Linkin Park now is so chilling, knowing what Chester would eventually. Just about all of their songs are laced with cries. What makes it even more haunting is listening to Battle Symphony from One More Light and how upbeat and positive it is, it made what happened to Chester that much harder to believe
Crawling has always been my favorite Linkin Park song. And yeah, after Chester's passing, I think we all realized how much of that pain was actually present in his lyrics. He was a genius, so talented...
One more light live is great. You'll get emotional
Another song that tears at my heart
