    I never cried at the loss of a popular figure. But the death of Chester did hit me in a way because of how much Linkin Park I listened to back in the days.
    What did make me full on ugly cry was the memorial concert Linkin Park gave in the Hollywood Bowl. They did this song completely without vocals...

    Dude, I almost couldn't get through this video. Like you, I've heard this song many times, but this is the first time I've seen the video and paid close attention to the lyrics. My middle daughter was an amazingly talented artist, like the young lady in the video. She battled and eating disorder and depression, and life became too much for her and she killed herself during her first year in college. Knowing that Chester took his own life as well, watching this video brought back a lot of my grief too the surface. To any of you considering taking the route that she and Chester took, please, please, get help. The pain you leave behind is absorbed by those who love and care about you and they are forced to carry it the rest of their lives.

    Believe it or not... This is the first time I have listened to this song since Chester's death. I could never bring myself to listening to it, it is a song that hits you so hard. For some In the End is that song. For me it is Numb. To know this beautiful, incredible man is gone still fucks me up. The fact his beautiful cleans and insane screams, highs and all his vocal talent will not be on another album 😔 Numb is so hard to listen, so thankful to this band. This is the anthem of depression. The words just hit true for all of us. I didn't know how to describe how I felt to anyone and I bet everyone else felt the same. Fuck that hurt to listen to. Again Alex thank you for taking us on a journey! I hope you have a dope ass day. Please take us through Hybrid Theory soon ❤ RIP Chester. All my love to his family and band of brothers ❤

    I think nobody ever really has pointed out this before, but Briana Evigan (the girl in the videoclip) running towards the church in the end where the band's gear is set is meant to symbolize the fans recurring to their music to vent. I believe we've all been like Briana at some point, finding comfort and reassurance in LP's music because they knew from the heart how we felt. Words just cannot describe how Somewhere I Belong and Numb (and pretty much all of Meteora) have made an impact in my life. Godspeed Chester, you never left our hearts.

    The meaning of the Song + Video:
    The video is about a young student, played by Briana Evigan, who is socially excluded and struggles with inner problems. She is introverted and spends her time drawing pictures, which is a reference to the song Breaking the Habit, originally called Drawing. At school she is teased and laughed at by teachers and students. When she falls, nobody helps her up and when she sits down with other girls, they get up and leave. On her left arm the word "Numb" (engl. "emotionless") is cut into her skin. In her room she throws her drawing against the wall out of anger and desperation and finally runs into that cathedral where the band was playing as if she had heard the band, but they have disappeared without a trace.

    • @ds90seph
      @ds90seph Před 4 lety +29

      This is a very literal reading of things, which kind of defeats the purpose of the general message in my opinion. The whole reason LP has such universal appeal is that their lyrics and their message is so relatable to a wide audience. I know that music videos may seem like they're the only representation of a song's meaning, but (as is the case with all music) you can (and should) separate the 2 as works of art on their own. The song was written separately and far earlier than the video was filmed, let alone conceptualized. It's merely a representation. Also, "numb" is an English word to begin with, so I'm not sure why you included that there with a synonym. No hate, I'm just cautious when it comes to this kind of reading. As an artist and a writer, I dislike it when people try to boil down the art I create to a single meaning, feeling or message. Sometimes broad and vague generalities are purposeful, because they allow for the reader/listener to craft their own narrative. It's the same with music.

    This song always reminds me of the toxic relationship I was in 15 years ago, around when I got my first Linkin Park album, "Live in Texas." She had a dream version of me that I always failed to be, due to my ADD( it was years later I found there were treatments for that) and depression( was apparently diagnosed when I was a teenager but no one told me.) I was conflicted by my love for her and my anger for her unrealistic expectations for me. It took me a while, and an eye opening experience with her, to finally be free of being bound to that relationship, and even more years for her to break free from her part of it, I think. The relationship was a hell we made, but I wish her the best.
    On a side note, "P5hng Me A*wy" the remix version of "Pushing Me Away", also reminds me of my relationship with her, and is an awesome song ( either version)

    So many memories with this song and Meteora. I am part of the crowd that likes Meteora more than Hybrid Theory. Both are excellent but I don’t know, Meteora just grabs me more I guess. Linkin Park was one of my first bands and a big gateway band for me too. Looking forward to him doing Hybrid Theory. Chester’s voice just can’t be touched.

    This Song hits me hard... I feel like there's no song that I identify with more. Always felt like my family wanted me to be someone else and meet their expectations without caring what I want, and after many years of battling depression and feeling this numbness, I wonder if these exact feelings were a big part of what happened with Chester.

Linkin Park has obviously been one of the 20th century’s greatest bands out there with diamond albums from the first 2 albums: Hybrid Theory and Meteora are all universal acclaimed albums overall. So with it In The End and Numb have become 2 of their most popular songs in their music to this day. Literally.

    Also something I didn't notice for a long time was about the girl. If you look carefully on her left arm you will see scars, and as someone who struggles with self harm this music video explains a lot more of the emotions with this issue. You try reaching out, try getting help, and a lot of people reject you and act disappointed in what you have become. Remember what Alex says "Don't let anyone throw shade at you"

    Alex, this is my first album that I ever owned in general. Besides that, from a young age this album has spoken to me. Later through the years I've learned to listen to lyrics and was able to connect to this band even further. I may not have depression but Linkin Park has made me somewhat of who I am. I learned that people have it worse than I do. When I listen to the lyrics, it tells me that I could be dealing with way more problems than I currently face. When I'm happy, I listen to the beat, when I'm down the words speak to me.
    I do request one song: Over Again by Mike Shinoda. It's a song that he dropped after Chester's death.
