  Sterling and I have had some cool conversations lately, but the one we have during this song tops them all! &nbsp;Wanna work with Sterling on your own vocals? Join his free course here: <a href="http://sterlingrjackson.com/free-course">http://sterlingrjackson.com/free-course</a>

  Chris, honestly as someone who loves LINKIN PARK and has loved them his entire life it is so genuinely great to hear how fondly you speak of Chester but as someone who has welcomed the new era in their heart for this band in the sea of so many negative comments out there hearing you give very fair and honest assessment of Emily and her technique and putting her next to Chester instead of below like so many people keep doing is just so refreshing. I love these videos. Keep up the great work.

  What i love is that Emily hardly ever sings the line &quot;what ive done&quot; she knows thats a fan favorite and lets them take that one. Chesters voice is so recognisable it was hard to even imagine anyone doing it but Emily really has stepped up. I feel like she almost lets Chester shine in every gig with certain lines she doesnt sing because they are so iconic. I love both so much and both are great in their own ways.

  Mike Shinoda must be living a great karmic life to find two such incredible singers. Each one seems like a once in a lifetime find and the chemistry of the band is just amazing.

  I love how soft and clean Chester’s voice sounds in this song, but there’s something about this last verse Emily sings that just gets me. It gives me chills. While Chester ends the song sounding like he’s transcending, Emily sounds like she’s right on the edge of an abyss: relief vs. despair.

  As a lifelong LP fan, Emily&apos;s voice is close enough to Chester&apos;s to make the songs still feel familiar and like Linkin Park, but far enough away to not feel like a cheap imitation.

  Chester is a masterful screamer and Emily’s belting is sublime. Both are great in their own ways.

  I absolutely love that Emily gave my favorite band a second lease on life. On the new songs she sounds amazing, but on the old songs, it&apos;s hard to put into words. I don&apos;t want to say they are bad, they just weren&apos;t written with her vocal capability&apos;s in mind. Anyways, the past is the past, i&apos;m sure there are many more awesome songs coming in the future with Emily. And for the old stuff, i will always have my cd/ vinyl/dvd collection and youtube &nbsp;to reminisce the divine voice that Chester had and the influence he/Linkin Park had on my early adulthood.

  The switch from aggressive to clean vocals from Chester is impressive. I love Emily&apos;s Chorus more.

  Fantastic analysis Chris and Sterling. &nbsp;You both brought out so much from these performances that I had not thought of. &nbsp; I’ve listened this song before but it feels like I just heard it for the first time. Thank you both 🙏🥰

  So glad you guys finally did something together, i hope to see more collab stuff from you guys, both of you have some of the best no nonsense takes on vocals, sterling in particular really hammered home on a couple of his vids that letting the mic do the heavy lifting will save your voice over the course of a set and over time in general. And chris, you always do an amazing &nbsp;job of showing the full trajectory of how to get certain sounds and really making it feel approachable, Tysm to both of you. And please please keep doing more content together, the good teachers need to stick together❤️
