I will never forget the way Jay-Z looked at Chester after screaming on One Step Closer in this video. It was as if he knew he would never hear someone sing like that again in his lifetime.
Haha not seen that performance of the song before. Man, Linkin Park, and in particular Chester's roars and screams, always sound better live. Awesome of Jay Z to do that tribute at the Live Lounge. Much better than the crumby footage we got of his tribute at his performance a month or so back. I always have my doubts about Radio 1 paying enough attention to things like this, but they've surprised me this time.
Really emotional performance. Jay kills it like always. And when Chester's part came on....damn. Made me have to relisten to Collision Course again.
Saw Jay Z play this from the 3rd row and dedicate it to Chester at ACL this weekend, I cried like crazy hearing the whole crowd cheer when he said to sing it loud enough for Chester to hear.
