Linkin Park singer, 41 years of age, father of 6 has committed suicide.
In the End, Numb and What I've done are three of faves and are on my phone.
Sad.
He sang Linkin Park's new song "One More Light "on Jimmy Kimmel Live recently, dedicating it to Chris Cornell of Audioslave who died recently as well.

The lyrics are profound...
Should've stayed, were there signs, I ignored?
Can I help you, not to hurt, anymore?
We saw brilliance, when the world, was asleep
There are things that we can have, but can't keep

If they say
Who cares if one more light goes out?
In a sky of a million stars
It flickers, flickers
Who cares when someone's time runs out?
If a moment is all we are
We're quicker, quicker
Who cares if one more light goes out?
Well I do

RIP Chester, gone too soon.

I was devastated when I woke up this morning and read/heard the news. Linkin Park were one of my favourite bands growing up having listened to them during such impressionable years.

Really loved Chester's artistry. Meteora and Hybrid Theory (and even Minutes to Midnight) are fantasic albums.

On Chris Cornell's birthday too, they were very close friends. Very sad times, RIP Chester.

one of the best voices out there. RIP Chester

The Carpool Karaoke video has been released with the blessing of his family... features comedian Ken Jeong.
He was happy... is a happy and real video of him... no signs of the demons he was fighting. Such a waste. So sad.
