At the end, Chester says about Chris Cornell, “He’s got the most beautiful voice.” No truer words ever spoken. To have lost those 2 artists in such a short span of time left a void in many a man’s soul, including mine. I come back to these videos to reacquaint myself with the spirit that poured out of these men. Their legacy lives on forever. Peace
mashton trash1998 Surreal.......all I can say is it's sad and wish some how they could have talked to someone before making a final decision....I miss them both....audioslave, alice in chains , and nirvana were my intro to rock....when I heard those lyrics and the voices there was no denying that.....my heart goes out to their families and friends....😢
Note the way how Chris points to himself when he says "These wounds, they will not heal." as though he knew that depression isn't something that just goes away with time. The world seems darker without these two great musicians.
The way the timbres of their voices blend together on the harmonies is (chef’s kiss). Chester’s naturally high, nasally (in a good way) voice and Chris’s full-chested baritone compliment each other so well. And the way Chris casually strolls across the stage singing the 2nd verse making it look so easy. What a legend.
You're right, it's really hard. Suicide is a horrible thing and it's certainly not ''what they do''. I can't believe they both hanged themselves. Horrible stuff for them, their loved ones, the music industry and the entire world. RIP
they both had depression, it's nothing horible for them. im a filmmaker(so an artist as well) and i have depression since i was 15. i understand them perfectly
When Chris comes out and surprises Chester....Chester is walking over to greet him....Chester’s back to the camera....yet you can still see the ear to ear smile on his face. True friendship. Gives me chills.
I saw Chris live 3 times with Soundgarden (for the reunion tour) and 2 times solo and also Chester live with LP maybe 2 or 3 month before his death, just one fucking year away from Cornell's one :-(. 2 of my favourite singers and Artists. 2 great voices that went away but are still there with us everyday. Keep safe and rocking friend and if you have time come check the new song I posted with R&O, would love your views on it : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kXsua5jVNtQ.html
This is why live music is soo amazing, you can tell Chester and the band had no idea Chris was coming out, Chester was singing the next part of the song and the sound engineer shut his mic off as Chris came out singing, such a cool moment! Love these guys and their music!
So funny I never noticed that! I had to watch it over again and see, you are exactly right. Wish I could have seen these guys playing together, though I do feel blessed to have gotten to see both a couple of times..
Duuude I’ve thought the same afta a couple watches but thanks so much for the assurance! This is truly golden, don’t get any better than these two right here 🖤❤️🔥
If you watch, it looks like I think Mike walks over as of to make sure Chris is coming out because he randomly walked over there to that area where Chris was.
They both struggled with similar demons. I'm sure it gave each of them strength when they saw each other pushing through each day and trying to stay positive. I'm sure it impacted Chester tremendously when Chris gave into his overwhelming depression. I hope all people start taking depression and mental illness more seriously and talk openly about it. I'm not sure that Chris Cornell was on the kinds of meds that would help him effectively and therapy. They were both amazing people and artists and will always be greatly missed.
@@Ariel_thenotsolittlemermaid Those three bands are very different from one another. They actually stand as three of the most distinct sounds of the era. There where many more bands that sounded more alike. For what it's worth, the first time I heard Linkin Park on the radio I thought "Oh, another one of those..!" But I later came to appreciate their music. They did their own thing.
@@user-oy7gz5bf2h these bands don't all sound the same, it's true- but they definitely have shared elements. The kinds of guitar riffs, the vocal styles and the rhythm centric approach are all shared there- and none of these things are in LP's music. People (including you) probably thought LP was nu metal because of the scratching and raps- but that's not enough to make it nu metal. They're alt rock.
@@Ariel_thenotsolittlemermaid To me, Linkin Park will always stand as a good example of the genre and of the era. Not that they lacked personality, but they did use many of what made NuMetal what it was. Heavy music with distorted guitars, rap sections, angst centric lyrics. I could argue the other bands you named aren't the best examples of the time either. (not trying to start a fight here, I just enjoy a good discussion) Deftones have said in various interviews that they didn't really feel part of the movement. They where doing their thing before the term arose and have since changed a lot from what I would consider NuMetal. But in the end, it doesn't even matter.
Wow. Chester's a great vocalist. But Chris Cornell walks on stage and takes Chester's highest high note and looks like he's strolling in the park. Then he does harmonies on the chorus that the band probably never could have conceived. And all the while he looks like a Jedi master. The world will miss you, Chris.
Every now and again, I have to come and watch this. These two brilliant musicians now gone. Breaks my heart, and I never want to forget the pain of losing them, ever.
Gabriel M. The ONLY argument Chris Cornell and Chester Bennington could have ever had was claiming the other one had the best voice in rock and roll.. And they'd never be wrong.
Well here it is November 15, 2023, and here I am again listening to Chester & Chris. The world was robbed, when we lost these two very talented, very kind & caring men. I miss them as much today as I did in 2017. RIP Chester & Chris, your voices were amazing, your songs spoke to my depression❤️🥰💔🕊️🕊️
I'm not an ultra religious person but when you mentioned heaven I had to look that up and pasted this here." According to the theology of the Catholic Church, death by suicide is considered a grave matter, one of the elements required for mortal sin. ... Suicide is contrary to love for the living God. 2325 Suicide is seriously contrary to justice, hope, and charity. It is forbidden by the fifth commandment"
Your voice was my voice, your rage was my rage, your sensibility my sensibility, you were my music crush and i grow up with you. I feel connected to you but i don't know u, and that's a miracle. Only beautiful souls do this. I'm heartbroken. You embodied emotions and your music saved lives. I know. So spread your wings now. I'll miss you and Chris.
The way Chris does the jump... 'I've felt this way before, so INSECUUUUURE'. I mean, he's just walking, it's like he doesn't even realize he's going to jump five notes in less a second.
Depression is real. No matter who you are. The beautiful, amazing talent of these artists is gone forever. Their families and friends will carry this pain forever. Think about those that no one knows are suffering. Please get help.
Not Always P C there is no help... you can reach out to talk about what's bothering you.. but in the end it's up to you.. if you're gonna try to get through it... they chose to end their lives... selfish but it was their choice.
They may be gone, but they're talent lives forever. Not just on the record, but in the hearts and minds of everyone they touched. It's up to us now not to let their contributions fade
It's not depression. It's the deep state. They were exposing powerful criminals and their horrible acts against children. They were making a documentary together about it. They had plans.
I saw Chris live 3 times with Soundgarden (for the reunion tour) and 2 times solo and also Chester live with LP maybe 2 or 3 month before his death, just one fucking year away from Cornell's one :-(. 2 of my favourite singers and Artists. 2 great voices that went away but are still there with us everyday.

"He's got the fuckin' most beautiful voice in rock and roll, man" Something I've always loved about Linkin Park, specially Chester, is their humbleness. What a wonderful and solemn thing to say.
Not sure what either of these two men were going through, but when you hear this song it just gives you chills. Two amazingly talented people with everything and yet they were still fighting Demons. Life can be crazy. Miss them both
I grew up on Linkin park. I still remember being too broke to purchase their hybrid theory cd when I was in 6th grade, so I borrowed it from a friend and recorded the whole thing on tape. (People can attest to this) I would walk with my portable tape player to recess everyday and just indulge in their music. Later on, mom and pops bought me reanimation and meteora for my birthday. I was the happiest kid alive. Hearing about Chester today really broke me down. May he rest easy.
CAPS UNO dude i was like you. I recorded the LP song (Numb) using a blank cassete tapes from my local radio stations in Bali (when i was in 5th grade) and I repeated that song over and over again. such a good childhood i've ever felt.
Fact: Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred into other forms. The energy from Chester and Chris' voices are still travelling somewhere on this Earth.
Until now, I'd been avoiding Chester Bennington videos since the news of his death. It's just too much to take in. This was beautiful. Two amazing people are gone but not forgotten.
Life is blowing by. 2030 will be here in no time and we will all be reading this wondering where the time went just like we do now with 2010. Enjoy the ride. It end before you know it.
Watching them is my main inspiration to not give up against my depression, I know they lost the fight, but the pain their deaths caused me showed my how much I can hurt if I fall apart. May them rest in peace.
MeytalHead Exactly. Which is why it hurt so bad. Dude always made it feel like like everything was gonna be OK. Like he always had it under control. Even though it wasn't. Even though he didn't. It's as brutal to lose him because of that
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely adore the way Chris and Chester were harmonizing in Crawling, but can we take a moment to appreciate how well the first verse of Hands Held High fits in with the opening of Krwlng?! Sounds so good!! love it when LP blend their own songs together and it just... works.
Battle cancer and won so far. I play this all the time and I so miss these guys. 2 bestfriends. So tragic deaths. I will always keep them both in my heart ❤
Omg, what next?? After Chris passed i watched this video like 100 times cause it was so awesome and you could feel how them 2 guys respected and loved each other. Now both gone! And on Chris's birthday! 😢😢😢 Well they are together again at least! RIP Chris and Chester!!!💜💛💚💙
Lindsey Labans Ohhh God! Undespicable voices of God given and now taken away talents! Love them both, admire them both, weep for them both - RIP Cornell and Chester! Will miss you to death! Soooo broken and depressed! Damn it! It takes me from heartbroken to disbelieving and after a while of crying I realize that will never hear him again alive! Feel so apathetic!
It's oddly comforting that both Chester and Corey Taylor remarked on their appreciation of Chris Cornell's voice. I too find Chris's voice very soothing and easy to listen to. You can put him on your computer and be assured that the next 5 hours will be excellant!
....Except that this was posted in 2008, almost 9 years before their deaths. Also, we all die... and I'm sure there was no death pact in place for almost a decade between the two of them. I mourn their loss just the same, but you're reading into that interaction a bit too much. He was clearly surprised by him and obviously had a sincere excitement to see a dear friend and fellow artist, least of all singing his part.
I meant that Chris doesn't seem aware of how directly his words relate to his own situation and appreciating that energy around my two favorite vocalists ever is too much to put into words. I saw this performance live at my first concert, before I knew who Chris Cornell even was. We arrived late and missed him headlining the show, a regret since I never saw him again.
I totally agree with u on that. Heavenly voices. Two of the most talented musicians that ever lived.. amazing listening to them sing together... It gave me goose bumps and tears in my eyes the first time I saw this video after they both passed. I would have given a kidney to see them both together lol
This video is so heartbreaking to watch knowing, we won't ever get to hear these two guys ever sing again.The 2 best singers ever we all miss you so much 😭
Mis dos ídolos, los mejores amigos...juntos en un escenario...Cosas así son las que me motivan a seguir, no sólo mis sueños, sino a seguir creyendo en mí. J*der, llevaba años sin llorar :') Gracias Chris y Chester, su música no sólo los ayudó a ser conocidos, sino también...entendidos. Descansen en paz😢
June 14th, 2022. I'm watching this for the (hell-knows-what)th time and I'm crying a river. May they rest peacefully now, singing together in eternity. Chris and Chester: you will always be missed. 🥺❤️
All I can see is the real friendship they have. I love how Chester smiles while seeing Chris. I guess living in this world without your favorite person is really hard. I just feel that Chris is one of the best reasons why Chester is still living despite his misery, but when that person dies, it's like there's no point to continue life at all. It's sad that their demons consumed them. Such great artists who left us great music. I wish that people who are experiencing agony will find peace and heal themselves thru Chester's creations. Life is beautiful. Music is beautiful. And learning how artists create these masterpieces would really hit us hard and understand them deeper. I can't put into words how sad I am about Chester's passing. Most people around me wouldnt understand me. Theyd say that they are just a band. But, they saved me. They accompanied me. They healed me. They spoke the words I can't even think of. It feels like a really close friend had died. We will miss you..
nicely put! I feel the same, no one understands how you could be sad about someone you didnt personally know. But Linkin Park were part of me growing up as a teenager and I just feel so fucking sad that Chester is gone. He seemed to have such a pure soul and crazy musical and lyrical talent.. It's just heartbreaking..
Yellow Pikachu Tbh I can relate to Chester n my best friend shot him self in front of me n it took all I had & den some to not wanna do the same but if it wasn't for linkin park I would have followed suit to my best friend
chateucaddy it's still a.conscience within me that won't go away, with each complexity it's intensifying- but for different reasons that for me have become insurmountable. I'm only still alive because I can't die.
Breaks my heart to see 2 of the most beautiful rock icons singing so amazingly together, when we all know they are both gone. At least videos like this will live on, so we will never forget their just how groundbreaking and brilliant they both were 😭😭😇😇🤩🤩❤️❤️🛍❤️🔥💯💯
It brought tears to my eyes I've lived that lifestyle for 30 years and I just turned 40 in may as well as the mental illness aspect Chris does have one of the most amazing voices in rock and Chester was a great songwriter as well RIP
It's this good mainly because it was not filmed on a cellphone. DV tape video cameras with optical zoom was still common in 2008 before the iPhone hit the mainstream.
@Ned Kelly suicided. They didn't commit suicide. They were about to expose child sex trafficking. The powers that SHOULDN'T be are child molesters, pedophiles. Sick disgusting monsters are what they are.
4 years. 20.7.17. Still heartbroken. Still missed. Extraordinary, beautiful souls. Love to you. Always. Chester Bennington, 💜🌹✝️ Chris Cornell birthday July 20, 1964
I must have watched this a thousand times now. Chris singing that last harmony with Chester is beautiful, and the way they hug at the end. I love everything about that.
