Therapist Cries While Reacting to Friendly Fire - Linkin Park
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 лют 2024
- Therapist uses the lyrics from Linkin Park's newest release "Friendly Fire" (off of their upcoming album Linkin Park album, Papercuts) to discuss how in conflict we often cause unintentional harm when we forget what we are fighting for. The song is a call to remember our ultimate goal which is connection and use that goal to direct the way that we show up in conflict. Part of the power of this song and the message is the use of Chester Bennington's vocals.

How many times someone has sat in their car alone and listening to linking Park, trying to control emotions and rewind your mind, letting out rage? You can't bring actions or people back, there's a future. Yet his voice stroke the right notes in your soul
I am that someone, and I’ve been going through something with someone that this song almost seems to have been written about. I lost an incredible friend to friendly fire for reasons I still can’t understand three years later. It’s the worst kind of pain but this song is a comfort
@NickTasy bro! Be strong. You got this, you can prevail and honor their existence by keeping it in your memories. You got this shit! Don't let one bad day ruin your week or mo th. We all carry deep scars. You are not alone man. We all have those days, trust me. Do what makes you happy to clear your mind, more bullshitnwill.come your way. But even taking 4-6 hours to yourself or dk what makes you happy can change your mentality. Take my word for it, I've lost over dozen friends to war or shit on the street. Make time for yourself and don't get caught up in self destructive cycle. Been there. As I said, you are not alone
Chesters voice had and always will find the right notes to my soul. There is a reason as to why this band is so special.
@chazhartwayne6493 you know it. No matter what nationality, music is international language and we all feel the same. Personally I can't listen to the whole song. I have to stop half way and go smoke a cigarette or I'm gonna cry and I am a grown ass man
Amen, combo that with Mike Shinoda’s “Post Tramautic”, then this song comes out 😢
Such a great song, along with the unreleased ones from Meteora 20.😊
A voice of a generation. Truly missed.
I saw them 2 weeks before he died ...
Amazing band one of the best.
Friendly Fire was first mentioned by LP member Mike Shinoda on his Twitch stream in 2020, and he told us it would be "years" until we heard the song. Well here we are!
It has been years after all. 4 years now
4 years
Chester was 1 of a kind. I miss him.
Chester is The King! ua-cam.com/video/-Rlw2QzAgEA/v-deo.htmlsi=CKF70x6E2DsNsBNH&t=5
we all miss him
I remember the day he died more vividly than most of my memories. I didn’t cry. Not immoderately. I was just utterly shook to my core! I couldn’t move, I froze and just could not fathom that he (of all people) was gone…..
it was like Kobe’s death utterly heartbreaking, but more personal to me
luckily I had plans with friends that day that got me out and about. But, it was impossible to get him off my mind that day. I just couldn’t believe he was gone 😢
For just a moment it felt like Chester was back seeing him in this video. RIP Chester. You will always be a legend in the music industry
I personally think the "what are we fighting for?" has dual meaning in this song - first as "fighting for what reason?" (like, why are we fighting? we love each other) and also "fighting for what cause?" (like, what is our purpose together? remember we love each other and have a common goal). But that is just my take on it after about 20 listens. No matter what, SO powerful and relatable, just like all of their songs. Thanks for sharing your reaction!
I WAS very lucky to have been able to experience Chester live in concert definitely one of the best days of my life
"one more light" is what really got me as it was the first release after his death and the lyrics are so powerful, losing chris cornell who was one of chesters close friends then to lose chester 2 months later was really tough.
They released One More Light before Chester died. He sang it live on Jimmy Kimmel in honor of his friend Chris Cornell who had recently passed.
@@TheBladen yeah true but i am pretty sure the video came out after he died though but either way the song is still powerful and moving
This right here 👆 . Chester took his life on the one more light album tour.
@@Freekyeight the music video did come out after he died. I remember seeing it release :(
Never does LP fail to make me cry. Chester is the best lyricist IMO. I intensely miss him 😭😭😭
He is the best at singing lyrics but never wrote them he rarely wrote linkin park songs
Thanks for everything Chester... I miss you a lot 😭😭😭😭
We need a Linkin Park biopic film called “In The End”
lol no. stop cash grabbing people's death.
Teenage me used to love listening to Linkin Park with my friends, never really got deep down into the lyrics. Now, 40 year old me, mourning the loss of my little girl, feel some of Chesters lyrics so hard. LP music is beautiful, emotional, so powerful.
I'm so, so sorry for your loss 💔
I love that his voice means so much to so many for so many different reasons. I hope you're doing well and I'm so sorry for your loss.
😢 I'm so sorry for your loss
Sorry for your loss...
Sorry to hear this. But you're right. Some of'em are so damn brutal that hurts to hear and to visualize all the pain and struggles he went through!
Linkin Park has been a source of comfort for years. Throughout my middle to late teens, I felt very lonely, looking for some sense of belonging. And then I heard “Somewhere I Belong”, and the song made me realise, “Someone feels exactly the same way as I do.”. It happened again many years later. December 2019-January 2020 was a dark time in my life. For various reasons, I honestly didn’t want to be alive anymore. Thankfully I spoke to a doctor and told her everything that was going on in my life and in my head. I don’t think I’ve ever sobbed so hard in my life. But I remember especially on the way home, randomly shuffling through the songs coming through my headphones, and “Breaking The Habit” came on. And the lyrics hit me like a punch to the heart. “I hurt much more than anytime before. I have no options left again.” And again, that moment of realisation. “Someone feels exactly the same way as I do. I’m not alone.” So Linkin Park will always be the most special band in my heart. I’m in a much better spot in my head these days, but I encourage anyone who’s struggling to reach out and talk to someone. If you get the chance, please ask for help.
Wisdom beyond his years. RIP Chester.🤍❤
We are all fighting to have Chester back! We all miss him so much and spoke to our hearts! Forever in our hearts Chester!
If you ever had a chance to see him live, you know he was magic. If you ever got to meet him and hug him, your life was changed mine was changed.
Seeing this video killed me the fist bump broke my heart between him and Mike
It’s funny how LINKIN PARK always seems to have, the right song at the right time for me as I’m going through exactly what this song is talking about. I guess that’s Chester being an angel! So many of us got through so much because of them!
I wish I could talk to my therapist about how he's affected me, how his death still hurts, but she doesn't even know who he is. I hide how much I cry about him. This song has me balling my eyes out.
Talk about it
tell her to do a deep dive. or recommend this video to her.
Damn, you are a great therapist. Love your passion and how well you can take the lyrics of a song and relate them to issues we all deal with in life.
i love the perspective of this reaction. thank you. We miss you chester
This boy lost his innocence at 7, he never got his life back after, but…. He gave so many youngsters a voice of the pain, and isolation that socially different young and older people feel. RIP Chester, never another xxxxx
I cried in the middle of the train station watching this..when reality hit that he isn't here anymore.
Chester is a legend his music is awlays extremely powerful and will always be remembered i still love him amd i still think he is one of the best vocalists out there
And I feel so blessed to have communicated with Mike Shinoda I’ve actually spoke with him
The sound of his pain in his voice ..... there had never been a voice like chesters , if you grew up in 2000s you will understand.... i miss your voice ! It will always keep me going
Chester for me was best singer thanks for all Rest in piece Chester
Linkin park helps me drown out the noise in my head. No matter which of their song, it never fails.
All my stress and anxiety and headaches just fade away when I hear their songs. This was no exception.
i cried so hard again... i miss chester so much and even if the meaning of their songs for them are different for me, they just seem to resonate so well. I'm thankful we get to hear him one last time, but it wasn't worth the cost....
This song brought me to tears the first time I heard it😢 Now hearing it again, I don’t know what to think
My response to the beginning of this video was exactly the same as yours!! What a wonderful, moving song and video! ♥️
Chester was an amazing singer and is greatly missed.
💔💔💔
Man, I miss Chester. I grew up listening to Linkin Park. Hybrid Theory was my first album as a kid that I ever bought myself. His voice and journey will always be in my mind.
I used to be a huge fan of LP but Chester's death pushed me away. I've been struggling with a severe depression for a few years and to listen do their songs can put me in a very dark place because the lyrics are so true and raw and i really miss him. It makes me cry every time. Anyway i'll just try to keep the good memories from the first time i listened to them in school when life was good.
Thank you for this video!
You dont understand how happy i am you decided to watch this today... found it at school and cried. beautiful song and video
I've done therapy 3 time since ei was 15 and it gave me lots of insight on myself and the world. At age 9 I lost my grandfather and LP came into my life with Papercut, ever since then I had 2 Idols, my grandfather and Chester. Fast forward almost 32 and still living life after my idols are gone. In that to take in for myself this insight from you shared my perspective and gave me another enjoyable experience to see people still feel this music like I do. LP4L
Absolutely love this song Chester and every LP song. It really hits home
Just wow. When Chester past I decided to just drop Linkin Park because I wanted to remember the band when they were whole and didn't want to face that he was really gone. His lyrics touched so many hearts, stopped my brother and sister from suicide and keeping their heads up when life was tough. The title of the song alone is what drew me to click on this video as well as your good explanation of the meaning of it.
Honestly this is one of the few songs that literally speaks to what I am going through with my best friend, I didn't feel understood by him or accepted when I began my personal "inner work" taking off that mask we all wear around people we aren't close with. I didn't feel accepted because he wouldn't take his mask off so I pushed him away for almost 4 months and he came to me to talk about his own revelation about himself and he began to take off the mask and all of the pain, lack of acceptance I felt towards him was gone in an instant, and it felt so much better that I didn't pressure him to change and that he did it for himself. It was funny because during the few times I would see him because he'd come to workout with my roommate I couldn't help but shake this need to want to hug him or let him know in some way that we're still friends and I care but i refrained, I didn't know if i would regret it or not and at the moment I guess I do but don't. This song just speaks volumes and I will def give papercuts a listen after hearing this. R.I.P Chester.
This touched my soul 😢 RIP Chester. I hope I don't get to meet you for many years to come xx
This message is 2 months late but I wanted to sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart & soul. I had been going through a very, very dark time in my life (almost an entire year, actually) and I seriously contemplated suicide. And yes, I am a diehard Linkin Park fan, even had the fortunate pleasure to see them in concert nearly a dozen times. Linkin Park's music has always been there for me and many of their words, sung by the angelic Chester Bennington, has always resonated with me. With all that being said, the way you broke down this song, in great detail I might add, spoke directly to my struggles and for the lack of a better term, you truly touched my heart & snapped me out of that dark mental prison I was in. So, again, you saved my life with this video. This is not a joke. Since I first watched your video, my life has been enlightened and I truly love & appreciate what I have. Again, thank you for your incredible words, guidance & wisdom. I just wanted to let you know that you saved a life here. Like Chester & the rest of Linkin Park, you will always have a place in my heart. Thank you.
Great video, I enjoyed this commentary.
As a fan of Linkin park since Hybrid Theory and how this song hit me and seeing it have the same effect on you shows how you really understand
Chester could literally sing how I feel. He was such a gift to this world. 😭
When you listen to linkin park. There is a song that everyone can relate to. Lost and Iridescent are ones for me. This is another beautiful song.
RIP Chester. Thanks for your lyrics and music as it helps. Shame you didnt get the help you wanted. 😢
I'm a noob to your channel and I just commented on the Crawling song you did. I love Chester and his music. I remember watching him audition for the band and people that were there to audition also just got up and left when they could hear him auditioning. Beautiful Voice
Thanks to my parents who insisted that I study English, so that today I can find your channel and be able to understand these valuable tips and messages that you transmit by analyzing such profound music. I cried when I realized that I have fought so many times in vain with loved ones without really realizing why I was fighting for.
Thank you for sharing and being here.
I love LP so much. One of my favorite bands of all time and so many resonate with me. This one makes me think of my failed marriage and all of the “friendly fire” that led to the downfall of what we were originally fighting for. Such a powerful song.
So lovely reaction
Forever a legend in our hearts
what a reaction ... i'm still crying after a day it released
daaaamN
Iove your react & explain❤
You broke down this song perfectly!
Thanks for sharing your take on the song, to me this has a deeper meaning that myth be just the connection I feel with his music, But I think he is not talking to someone else, I believe he is talking to him self, let me explain.
There is times where you just sit alone and there is two parts of you, one that has completely forgotten what is it that makes you wake up every morning and that feeling of your own self being your worst enemy, sometimes you just want to say what Chester is signing in this song, stop hurting your self and realize you are gone to far and there is no going back, because there is darkness ahead and darkness behind, so your mind and soul are both taking friendly fire, because you have to fight against your self and there is a promise that you will no longer be your enemy when it's all over.
please more Linkin park, Chester is the best vocalist and writer I've ever seen !
i had to leave the room when i first listened to this because i was full on sobbing 😢 its so powerful
When I heard the song for the first time, I thought to myself "that was a reference to himself"!
Like having a heart to heart conversation with a childhood best friend.
I miss him so much!
i love your when you react to songs
I hope you will go through some of Linkin Park's songs. I am a huge fan and would love your take on one of the biggest bands. After all Chester lost his fight against depression.
Shhhh it’s okay I felt it too I miss him too but he would be proud of us for holding on his memories
He was so awsome😢
I truly miss Chester
I also cried
Heard the song would be released
Cried
Saw that the song was released
Cried
Heard it
Cried
Watched the premiere
Cried
Saw
Chester
Cried even more
Saw him smile
Cried even more
This song is lot easier to listen to without the music video. It’s on my daily playlist, but the MV breaks me every time. I still had to look away from most of the it. ( miss you Chester) ✌🏻
I just started watching you. Damn are you on target about relationships. Nice to know what Im feeling is valid
Great job
Saw Linkin park in concert 99 was amazing
If there is one positive point to take from Chester's suicide, then it is that I would never ever think of doing it myself, no matter what, because the pain that this action is causing to relatives is just too much. His death hit me so hard! So, if you love your family and friends, you don't want to do this to them!
Gone way too soon. His vocal talent is legendary
The message of the song is very good
Chester 🥺🕊️🕊️🙏🏿🙏🏿
Now you know how we feel, loss of him and shit his voice got us through
I miss you lot a CB ❤
Couple best friends. The closest person that we live battle
Love we battle 😢
Miss chester ❤❤😢😢😢😢🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹
+1 sub , tks for sharing your perspective maam .
4:47-6:40 Lost a very close friend for reasons I can’t understand, because of actions she chose to make that evidently hurt me. And when I tried to talk to her about things she only ever just pushed away. I never lost sight of what I was fighting for, but I think she did, and it hurts more than I can describe because I have never loved someone so much before. The collapse of our friendly was just a case of friendly fire for reasons I’ll never understand…
From bmao: @NickTasy Hey, I'm so sorry to hear that you are going through this. Losing someone who you loved so much is beyond heart wrenching. It makes you feel like everything you ever shared was flushed away, and you're left with the hole of that person in your heart. I really empathize with what you are going through. I went through a really emotionally taxing breakup with my girlfriend when, despite loving each other very much, we realized we would not work long-term. Everything was left on a positive note, but then as we separated she began to take actions that really hurt me. No matter how much I tried to fight for our friendship, she pulled away and continued to hurt me.
I'm so sorry that this is what you are going through, because being hurt by someone whom you so deeply loved is absolutely devastating. Something that really helped me cope is the phrase, "hurt people hurt people". Those who are struggling often find so much trouble dealing with their own emotions, and while trying to sort out their own struggles, they hurt those around them who really care for them. This doesn't make their actions okay, but it helps to frame why they do what they do. I'm so sorry that you've had to experience this, but I know that within everything, there is a reason. Even in the hardest, most poignant struggles, there is a reason for what we go through. While you may feel betrayed and heartbroken, I do want you to know that you are so truly loved and I really appreciate you taking the time to open up as you did here. You are loved and I wish nothing but the best for you as you move through this trying time.

It would always be better to avoid them
And not to risk to be right
Because being right is not always the answer"

Check out one more light by linkin park before Chester died rest in peace you love it so powerful n beautiful makes me cry everytime i hear it please react too this you are not alone
💛
I would love to hear your take on "Family" : Bad Flower. That was the last song that hit straight through the heart and made me cry
would love your take on "Lost"
Can't change the moment , when we went to far..... to far... do you guys get it,,, Chester went to far.... can't change the moment... i dont know if its my F&?*/ mind kinda depressed,,,suicidal sometimes,,, but it touched me that way... thinking,, calling writing to someone when its getting to dark.... i have to do it... but stilll... a beautiful song !!
Going through so much. Lost my family because of my actions and this song literally came out at the worst time.
From ThriceTheThird: @Michael-qc9jm I'm sorry that you are going through these things right now. I hope you can find some relief to what you're going through in time. Feel free to share more if you ever want. <3
From Micro: @Michael-qc9jm I’m sorry that you are going through these things right now. I hope you can find some relief to what you’re going through in time. Feel free to share more if you ever want. <3
Hey friend, thank you so much for reaching out here and sharing about this loss that you've been experiencing in your life. It must be really painful to feel like having lost your entire family, to be away and isolated from them. I'm really sorry that you are going through this, friend. It is so hard to be in the position of feeling like you would have ruined something that is important to you. That your actions could have been the cause of losing people you love and not sharing life together anymore. I imagine how suffocating this must feel, as if you wake up every day and feel this heaviness on you that keeps pressuring your heart over and over. It's hard to focus on your daily life and commitments when there is this type of wound that keeps hurting so very much.
For what it's worth, I personally experienced losing my family, besides my sister, after different losses and a need to separate myself from some people. It was hard to feel like this distance needed to happen because we couldn't find a common ground to communicate peacefully and love each other. Of course I imagine that it is different in your situation but I wanted to extend my affection for you here in what must feel like a profound sense of loneliness. Feeling uprooted from your family is a type of pain that words are not enough to describe.
This song is definitely a strong reminder of the conflicts we may have with people we love, and how hurtful that can be. It is such a powerful music that can easily bring tears to your eyes and make you recess all the guilt, pain and regrets that you could have felt in your relationships... It certainly did for me, and I hope that somehow this music can bring relief in just allowing you to feel emotions that may havebeen buried within. We don't want to be in war with the people we love, we don't want to feel like we have to stay away from them, we don't want to feel like we have been hurting them. We just want to love them fully, share good moments together, share what life has the most beautiful to offer.
I imagine that the feelings of guilt and shame must be very present and overwhelming in your life right now. But I hope you can keep in your mind that no matter what happened, you're not a bad person, and you are not worthless either. We sometimes make mistakes that feel are not forgivable once we are in the midst of the consequences that they created. But I do hope that you will manage to find peace and healing from the situation, eventually that the battles between your family and you could find some resolution that would be positive for all of you.
You deserve so much to feel like you can breathe again without feeling any heaviness while doing so. If you ever need to share more or to connect with people who will support you through this painful season, please don't hesitate to reach out again order Sure more, or even to join our community on our anonymous forum, the support wall, at forum.heartsupport.com.
You matter friend.
@@HeartSupport that is definitely what I needed to hear! Thank you so much..
Good reaction, Taylor. I miss you, and HeartSupport. I have been doing my own thing, I still think about you all, and prayed for you all. Linkin Park has been one of my favorite bands since middle school 2007. I was sad when Chester Bennington took his own life. I forgave him for that. LP’s In The End, was certified Diamond, and I’m proud of them. I never seen them live in concert. What I appreciate LP, is they tell truths in their lyrics. All Truth, is God’s Truth. I grew up in a Mexican-American household, my family, and me, didn’t know how to express our emotions in a healthy way. A couple of family members of both my father’s and my mother’s side verbally and emotionally abused me. They didn’t cuss at me, but they used shame tactics against me. They’re manipulative, lying, and impulsive. I develop anger issues, depressed, cynical, exploded on others who don’t deserve it, I imploded, became vengeful, and I regret my poor decisions. I’m no better than the ones who hurt me. The thing about Mexican-American culture, it holds Christian beliefs. The churches I gone to when I was a boy and adolescent didn’t helped me of what I gone through, but God did. It took me a long time to figure out. It is not just LP He put into my life, also Christian bands who were influenced by LP such as RED, Skillet, Thousand Foot Krutch, Manafest, War of Ages, Relent, and more. Not just for me to enjoy music, I can give The Holy Spirit the honor and glory, and pray for forgiveness. Asking God to forgive me, forgive others, forgive myself, and others forgive me. The ones who hurt the most, are the ones we forgive the most. We all got to extend forgiveness, grace, mercy, compassion, and repentance. There will be more conflicts, mistakes, and we all have to be held accountable, and take responsibility for our actions. The Lord is the only One I trust, and He’ll make all things right. I hope you all are safe. Thank you for the video. Jesus loves you all. I love you all too. 🙏🏾✝️☦️🕊️🐦⬛🐑🦁🖤🩶🤍🤟🏾🇺🇸🇲🇽🇮🇱🤘🏾✡️🕎🎶🎼🎵🎤🎧🎸💿😢💎🪽👑🐱🐶⛪️
We are all human and "what are we fighting for "
when we come under fire, we then turn our fire inward on ourself instead of at other people, increasing the damage
please react to more Linkin Park... Crawling been my favorite song in my youth
Those who know is life even know what he is fighting for. Save children from the devil. I hope i will meet you in another life Chester.
Sorry for my bad english .
Kiss from france
Words of wisdom just pause and hear this song
Its unfortunate that the level of effort it takes for two people to make something is something most people will avoid just because its so easy to find something easy to get through a night or a week.
It would be interesting to have some analyses on the personification of feelings done by the band Twenty One Pilots. The album "Blurryface", for example, creates an incredible universe of concepts about anxiety, insecurity, depression, among other feelings. I think it would be valid to at least analyze some of the hits.
such a nice song
you should really react to the live version in texas of the song "a place for my Head" by Linkin Park
To me, Crawling will always be, lyrically, and instrumentally, their best song (once you learn the back story behind the lyrics)
I know I am just 1 in a sea of many that uses music as therapy, as an escape from the mental hoops or the celebration of whatever..... depending on if I'm in a mania (which is an extremely uncomfortable thing for me) or a pit or I'm stabilized in any given situation, because after 15+ years Bipolar, Anxiety, and PTSD still throws me some whopper wrenches.
I've always used music to help get me through many things, so my husband (thankfully, because it sucks a lot at times) doesn't understand why I connect with some of the songs that I do. Their song Talking To Myself could be his theme song when he's trying to figure out what he can do to try to help me. 💚🧡💜💛💙
For me, the fight over the little things, the fight over the dishes, etc it is being with someone and still feeling alone
Still feeling the weight of the load I thought I’d have help carrying
Feeling tired and that I needed to just set this down and pass it off but so much of it I can’t, and I just need you to take this one thing and it hurts when you don’t because it is one more thing I’m carrying what it already all feels so heavy, or feeling loss of control over your life (with mess, w it h things being misplaced), grief and loss (when stupid things break). It is about so much more than the dish, or the broken thing.
Ever since I came across this UA-cam channel on my Google feed I found myself listening to this song daily because it really hits deep. What are we fighting for? That's what I needed to be asking myself. Thank you @heartsupport
Another artist that is incredibly talented and emotional and is no longer with us that you should check out is Keaton Pierce with Too Close to Touch, my favorite song is Nerve Endings
R.I.P Chester you will live on forever through your music
❤love it…and love your reaction.
I would like to sugeste a band…but you have to see the story behind there songs…
I’m talking about twenty one pilots.
Cheers
Keep up with the good work.
You need to check out their song Given Up. Powerfull lyrics!
I really believed i‘m over it.. not that it dosen‘t hurt anymore, it still hurts so much. But i truly believed, it won‘t get any harder now.. but holy shit i was nowhere near ready to see the real Chaz in a new video again…
I wanna live in a alternate univers, where he is still around..
