Vocal Coach reacts to Linkin Park - Lost [Official Music Video] 

I am a 68-year old grandmother, yet Linkin Park has been my favorite band for 20 years. Every time I hear Chester I want to cradle him in my arms. Like so many, we miss him.

Tears come unbidden hearing the pain he carried 😢

I’ve often said that Chester was the voice of those who felt they didn’t have one, and his words were the words that couldn’t be spoken. I always listen to them when I have a lot of pent up emotion, like I’m channeling my emotion to that “voice of the voiceless” as a way of releasing it without having my own outburst. Hearing this song after he passed really resonates that much more, hearing those words and his vocal delivery of them hits harder knowing how real those words were to him.

I swear I cry every time I hear his voice. I was a diehard Linkin Park fan when I was younger. I still kept up with them but I didn’t listen as avidly as I did when I was younger. The day Chester died I felt like I’d lost a best friend that I didn’t know was struggling. It’s sad that that had to happen for me to revisit their music but it’s like a sharp knife knowing that my children will never get to enjoy them performing like I have. Love all of you that read this. If you need help or someone to talk to I’ll be here. Stay safe everybody!

Almost every reaction to this song starts to talk over or skip past the moment in the song that gets to me, the "But I'm tired" is so emotional. Sadly was skipped over again here 😢

I have heard this over a hundred times and it ALWAYS damn near pulls a tear out

I think everyone can agree, whether you like Linkin Park or not, that their music always have an emotional impact. You can hear the pain and desperation. The line "but I'm tired" with Chester's voice being like a cry just really crush me. I feel it to my very core.

Hearing Chester sing always brings mixed emotions for me. Linkin Park was supposed to be coming to Boston, and I was planning to go see them...unfortunately we lost Chester not long before that. It would have been my first concert ever, as I had been saving my first concert experience for Linkin Park. Whether it was Hybrid Theory, Meteora, Minutes to Midnight, I enjoyed all of it. I also enjoyed Chesters work with Grey Daze and Dead by Sunrise. Same goes for Mike Shinoda with Fort Minor, and what he has produced under his own name. Chester felt like he was speaking to us. He helped many of us through tough times Thank you Chester, we miss you.

I didn't know this was an unreleased song. I recently started listening to it just thinking I somehow never heard it

This song gets to me, almost feeling like a 'note' being left years before the tragic event. 'I will never be...alright', and "I'm tired" sticking out for me. Beautiful song, so sad at the same time.

I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve listened to this song. I still get goosebumps 🫶

God man, I miss that legend!!

The bridge gets me everytime. The layering is amazing on top of the vocal fry gives me chills everytime

Chester has always popped up in my life when I needed something to get me by numb pretty much got me through middle school then when one light happened it was a year after my dad's suicide and now that I am more lost than ever this comes out it brought a wave of emotion like hearing someone's voice again

This song (as so many of their songs) is so painful to listen to. Chester told the world in the biggest boldest letters the pain he lived with, and it still ended so tragically, tears my heart to pieces 💔

Meeting the band and spending time with Chester is a core memory for me and everytime I hear this song, for some reason it takes me back to that moment.

So long as Chris Cornell and Chester Bennington's documentary "Silent Children" never comes out. I will never believe Chester took his own life.

I just hope is pain is finally gone, and he is free, where ever he is right now. And we fans? Yeah we just here lost in those memories. Miss Chaz every day. It won‘t get less painful to listen to them. But its nice that they released all this tracks now. He maybe be gone, but since he is music now, he never will be forgotten.

had a buddy commit suicide a few months ago. this song has helped me through alot of it. cried watching this video, chester was the realest of us all. rip chester...rip raymond.

just makes me miss him more. Like a friend you lost touch with and never got to reconnect with.

When I heard this. I thought. Awesome, a new LP song with Chester.. So cool. But when the moment came and he started to sing, it just hit so differently than I expected. I can listen to there old music just fine. But for some reason a new song with him just hit so differently than I thought. His voice just made me shiver right away, I did not expect it to hit in that way.. And the fact it was so unexpected make it so much more. And the moment he sings. " I am tired " there is a break in his voice, its like its pulled out. its just. Amazing song. and I can't put words on it, but what ever I am feeling, I really did not think I would feel listening to this song when I heard it the first time. An other things after hearing it many times now. When the " I tried to keep this pain inside, but I will never be alright " Looking back there are many of the things he sung where people say, well he was telling us. But those lines are not like that, it was more a. He feared this, and it turned out to be true. Suffering from chronical mental illness is something you fight your entire life, and the best you can do is fight so it does not effect others. But you know inside you will never get to be alright. All the things others live for, is something you can never have, and there is not anything you can do about it. When you live it, that thought is the most heavy thing you carry. No matter what, your life will always be that, I will never be alright. Nothing can change it, no amount of love, wealth, power. I can have everything I ever desired, and I will still not be alright. Linkin Park always meant a lot to me, I was a teenager when they made it big. And they made so many amazing songs. And the influence they had on music is almost unrivaled, so many modern bands was and is influences by LP.. I do have an emotional favorite song though. I have "some" tattoos, and I have designed them myself, with the old Norse way of being used to tell my own story with them. So I do not have things from songs, or poems, or pictures whatever. Other than one thing. LP have a song called " This is my December " Not one of there most known, but I listened to it a lot. And I have in my tattoo the " This is my December " as a ode to LP. the only connection I have to any lyrics or band, so it means something. It also made sense because I am born in December, so it still tells that story. plus other connections to December. But for that reason I would say that is the most important LP song for me, can't say if its my favorite.

I love listening to music. You have a wonderful mix of music. Thanks for introducing me to lots of new music. ❤🎶

Chester singing about depression and despair for 20 years... and everyone was so surprised when he killed himself. It's really tragic, he was literally TELLING us how he felt and what was going to happen.

I’m so LOST in my tears from hearing this again and again 😭

I saw Linkin Park at the USF Sundome in 2004. It was a great show! The setup was unique. The security barrier was formed in a triangle. The audience couldn't crowd directly in front of the stage. Instead, two mosh pits formed, one to stage left, one to stage right. It made for a calmer show.;)

Btw if you pause, you should rewind a bit when you start again. You messed up the whole emotional impact of 2:40 because of that.

We all cried listening this the first time😢

Yesss finally u react to this master piece. Muchas gracias desde Colombia!

I had already thought the animation had gotten his gestures down so well; now I know how. And though his lyrics were always touching on pain, I agree that with him having passed, his words hit harder than ever.

Wow! You realy translate my feels abou this song! Thanks, God blass you! A fan from Brazil!

Now,when I hear any of their songs,I feel sad ,because he was crying out for help all this time,and no one paid attention to it,all they wanted was the next hit single,but couldn't care less about his mental health,I include myself in this critique,but I have loved them from their first album! R.I.P Chester,may you find the peace you were searching for.🙏🙏🙏

Can’t help but feel sad. A wonderful soul, gone too soon. This song is that. But it’s also a gift: we get to hear Chester one more time and remember how he never failed to move us. ❤

This is because I love LP. It looks like Chester is singing to me. It really touchs my soul. 🖤🥺

Linkin Park is my favorite band alongside Evanescence ❤ I Love Lost so much, thanks for doing this one!

Love this song. Miss you Chester.😢

During their heyday I was not tuned into most contemporary music. I had heard of Linkin Park but had never heard any of their recordings until now. First I listened to the music first sans video (but of course with Beth's observations), then watched the video, and only then read about the song, the band, and the backstory. The song, lyrics, and delivery stand up well on their own. The video adds another layer of depth to the experience. Knowing the backstory furthers colors one's perception. A somewhat analagous situation: I bought and listened to Bowie's Blackstar before I watched the companion videos and before his death just 2 or days thereafter. The videos and a review of the lyrics in the light of his unexpected and premature passing made the songs all the more impactful. In both cases one can only wonder what more each have done in the years ahead. Let's be thankful that their music will live on.

It’s so damn sad, and strange really, how the writing was there on the wall all the time. It’s only after the fact, looking back on the catalog, where you go “Oh damn. Yeah. I see now.” I’m really surprised you didn’t really lose it while watching this, Beth. Such a voice to lose so freaking early!

To me, the magic of this song is when Chester starts screaming on top of Mike's voice, like he is there, holding your hand, and encouraging you to be brave, and not to feel alone in pain.

Interesante video una buena propuesta musical bien Beth 👏👏🍀🍀

700k EIP CHESTER YOU ARE IN ARE HEARTS TELL WE PASS

you have a beautiful perspective.. I was going to comment again but... Yeah this is still beautiful.

Hearing Chester again is the comfort blanket that we, Xennials needed. The animation is footage from Live in Texas. #HisLegacy #MakeChesterProud "One who saved millions, but millions couldn't save him." We love you, Chester. We miss you. Sidebar - Look out for more gems being released from the 2003 Meteora album.

Every time i listen to linkin park i shed a damn tear, i remember as a kid growing up listening to all their albums because my uncle would buy the albums and we would listen to it in his car, in the moment i was too young to understand the lyrics but now that i grew up it hits 💔 especially when i realize his music was a cry out for help 😢 RIP chester a fucking beautiful soul he put his own fans before himself. He knew if he couldn't save himself he would at least try to save others.

Increíble!!!! ❤️

"but im tired" hit so hard from him

"I will never be Alright" ... in context is... kinda devastating 😢

Had the albums on cd. They were my favourites. To think this was not released the whole time we listened to meteora.

You missed that note. The magical note with pronounciation

Yay!!!

Rest in peace man. God damn we miss you

It made me sad but gave me hope. Yeah, sounds like Linkin Park

Hi, Beth! great, detailed reaction as always! One suggestion if i may: go back 5-10 seconds after you pause. using the arrow keys is the easiest way. I only say this, because I feel you missed the full impact of some of the more poignant moments like when Chester said "I'm tired..." Just a suggestion!

#ripchester my hero

Great job as always, Beth!!!

Beth you have to check out Brock Lindow from 36 Crazyfists. One of the most unique, intriguing heavy vocalists ever. Crazy vowel mods and strangest vibrato. You'll never hear anything like him. End of August or Bloodwork would be a good place to start

🎉🎉🎉

If we only knew then what we know now. 😢

It took so long for u to react

I’d like to see your take on Periphery Atropos, as it’s a similar AI concept video.

You NEED to react to Linkin Park QWERTY live from Tokyo

😢❤

The worst part for me, is how early his pain manifested😢

❤.

Great video! I have some feedback that I think would help with the videos. I think it would be awesome if you rewinded like 5 seconds everytime you paused. It can help gaining the fluidity of the song back after a sudden pause.

Waiting for this reaction they have another song fighting myself you need do a reaction to

When i heard about this release, i avoided it because when he left us it was a day before my birthday. It also took me a long time to listen to them again. It was hard but it's a beautiful song nonetheless

This song was supposed to be on the Meteora album but they found it to be too similar to numb so they shelved it.

It seems to me or Lost on the video is accelerated somewhere by 5-10%?

😢

How come everytime I listen to this song, it happens to be raining... :(

You LOST the most paintful part of this song "but i'm tried" when stopped at 2:40 ...

Imogen Heap - Hide And Seek

My god why does everyone miss the "but, I'm tired" part. Stop pausing during vocals!!

please listen to this

Next please react "IKAN DALAM KOLAM" BY arlida putri feat dike sabrina ❤❤❤

If you haven’t already you should listen to Ren, even if you don’t do a reaction you should listen to him, I recommend Hi Ren and Chalk Outlines…

You need to do linkin park "fighting myself" now!!!!

Paused at 02:40 and didn't go back to it?!

Honestly, Chester did amazing job. I could really feel his pain and sadness. He really absorbed me into his world with his voice. Truly incredible experience.❤

I don’t want to be that guy but this wasn’t recorded anywhere near 20 years ago..

Please reaction Easy on me - Adele (cover One ok rock)

pls react to crimson glory red shark :D

Wow talk about a crap place to pause the song; right on the most heartbreaking intonation for "But I'm tired"

React: Leonardo Gonçalves -Sublime 🇧🇷

Chester didn't write the lyrics. Mike Shinoda is the lyricist.

Please listen to Fighting Myself by linkin park. It's another unreleased meteora song

Please react LP....Faint

do : Nude by radiohead

❤Please have a look at this performance "Linkin Park - Pushing Me Away [Piano Version] Legendado" I'm sure that you'll be amazed.

Aw, man. She skipped the one part I really wanted to hear her take on. "But I'm tired."

I do enjoy your insights into vocal music, both the technical and emotional aspects of it. I don't know if you will, but I'd really like to hear your take on The Wellermen singing Misty Mountain (from The Hobbit movie trilogy): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-f1Vkh1Iy5IA.html

Listen band look Desireless - Voyage Voyage

Please reaction DIMAS SENOPATI VIDEOS ( WIND OF CHANGE COVER )

CHESTER the best singer ever!!!!!

But I'm tired...

When I listen to ballads like this I can't help but compare them with the ballads of the '50s-'60s-'70s and find today's ballads sadly lacking in melody. In the past the lyrics expressed the sadness and pain but the beautiful melodies offered healing and redemption. "Jealous Guy" by John Lennon is a perfect example. The melody gives you a safe place to experience the pain and deal with it. That is the hallmark of most of the greatest ballads of the past.

Please react HOME - RE:UNION(indonesian band)

Kleenex time.

I can’t understand why the pausing all the time? It’s not about you!
