Breaking the Habit Music Video??!!

Call me ignorant, but why does Chester jump off the building?? What is the whole music video about?? I've watched it about 10 times, and I still don't understand. Plz help!

 

I always thought it was about self-injury as well. It makes a lot of sense, and then it makes me wonder if Mike or anyone in the band ever did that when they were younger. It comes up in a lot of songs as well..Carousel, Part Of Me, etc..

 

It does make you wonder..
But anyway, I knew it was about suicide, but WHY does he do it? Who are the other people in the video?

 

i read somewhere... this probably isnt true, but i heard that chester, when he was really young, did drugs, so maybe thats where it comes from?

 

Heh, well, Mike wrote the song, so I would assume it would have been him that tried to commit suicide...

 

TF are you talking about?? Lyrics aren't only from personal experience. Get real.

 

TF?? [/b][/quote]

 

God, sor-ry--read carefully: "I would ASSUME".

 

Don't double post.

The song is about a friend of Mike who committed suicide. I'm 90% sure.

 

Sorry, but thanks. It makes sense now.

 

i see it as break any habit

 

Linkin Park are so emo.

 

The songs about breaking a habit.

 

WOW.

THANKS FOR THAT INSIGHT, CHUCK.

BACK TO YOU IN THE STUDIO, TOM.

 

Here's Brian with the weather.

 

most likely LP is referring to suicide, hurting yourself, etc. But the general message is to break the habit of something you're doing which may be unhealthy. The other people in the video, like the girl, the druggie, and the couple, are just characters who have a difficult problem in their life and need to break that habit, hence the title of the song, "Breaking the Habit." Linkin Park once said in an interview that these extra characters were inspired by the fans they've met who mentioned how their lives were disappointing before they discovered LP music and how Linkin Park has helped them override these obstacles.

 

WOW.

THANKS FOR THAT INSIGHT, CHUCK.

BACK TO YOU IN THE STUDIO, TOM.
