RE: Open Mic Week 43 - "Crawling" by Linkin Park acoustic cover
Beautiful! What's happened in the past few months in the music world is so sad... First Chris Cornell, then Chester, and now they're thinking they were both murdered... Anyway it sounds great! Good luck this week!
I knew Chris and cried my eyes out when I heard what happened.
I can imagine... Even I cried. And now that they think it was murder... 😡 I just can't believe it...
I know it's crazy and extremely sad. I normally try to steer clear of the celebrity death bandwagon but this one ripped out a part of my 6th grade soul. Such a huge part of my early junior high was spent soaking in their music.
This death has really put into perspective how young so many people are compared to me in my world. Lol. I've been realizing just how much younger my local music colleagues are through the relating of Linkin Park to what age y'all were when you were first exposed to them. grandmalife lmao
Hahaha context is everything when it comes to aging. In my mind I still feel like I'm 23 or so until I do the math and like, oh shit, I was WAYY off. It seems like once the major milestones are reached (drivers license, "adulthood", legal for booze) I just kinda stopped counting...
When I moved to Springfield a few years ago, I just didn't ask people how old they were anymore...I don't know why. For a long time, I made sure I knew how old everyone was (no idea why), but now I don't really care...I mean if you're a friend, you're a friend...but hearing how people's first CDs were Linkin Park and stuff like that...yeah, I feel old.
Definitely not my first CD haha. My first CD I recall was Big Willie Style lmfao. Classic!
Bwahaha! Grandma life... Hilarious... But I do know the feeling though because that's how Chris Cornell was for me. Soundgarden and Alice In Chains albums we're going in my head phones constantly as a young kid...
ya i really can't believe Cornell is gone. so many artists have been dropping off, it's a little weird or maybe it's just ive reached that age where the people i grew up with decide to go. there's really suspicion of murder for conell?
Yeah... Supposedly they we're about to expose a huge pedophile ring in the entertainment biz or something...
