Chester Bennington’s Carpool Karaoke Episode Has Been Released, And It Shows The Face Of Depression

ADVERTISEMENT

One of the ways to heal your soul after losing a beloved person is by remembering the fun times you both had. Almost 3 months after singer Chester Bennington committed suicide, his band Linkin Park has shared his full episode of Carpool Karaoke. Taped July 14 (less than a week before Chester’s tragic death), it backs up his wife’s statement that depression has no face.

In the episode, Bennington was smiling, laughing, talking about his children, and even dancing with actor Ken Joeng as they drove around with Linkin Park’s band members Mike Shinoda and Joe Hahn. In between the conversations, everyone sang Outkast’s Hey Ya, Red Hot Chili Pepper’s Under The Bridge, and Linkin Park’s own hits, Numb, In The End, and Talking To Myself.

The 23-minute show begins after this message is shown on the screen: “With the blessing of Chester’s family and his bandmates, we share this episode, and dedicate it to the memory of Chester.”

    I wish his family all the bravery and strength in the world. Please remember Chester not just for his death, but mostly for his legacy, for many moments that has changed and helped million people, including me. Despite his ending, this son/husband/father/friend of yours was incredible.
