She does that all the time with other songs and it's quite frankly annoying because you want to hear the song in FULL performance. Do you think they will mix with studio version on top of it? How would they have a studio version of Waiting for the End with Emily? Some of these crowds, specifically and literally Brazil, are so loud it is crazy. Whatever they release will be good - with the first live release for the new lineup they won't put anything out that is subpar. Quote
RogueSoul Posted June 14 Author Posted June 14 Personally I think it's smarter to release more tracks that Emily doesn't already sing on in the studio versions right now than to have more live versions of FZ songs - and this is coming from the #1 Stained fan lol. Would like to have versions of the tracks on streaming with Emily as well - especially WFTE with that original intro. Sure, a lot of the music became more refined over the years as they performed them more but it'll be nice to have this little time capsule of the start of the era. Plenty of live releases will come down the line I'm sure with newer songs, so I'll take new releases of older music w/ Emily while we still can get them. Don't want them to rerecord old songs but I see no issues with live versions! Quote

I like Emily and the new shows but I have to agree. My issue is not that she is letting the crowd sing, Chester did that as well, but when Chester did it, it made sense. He let the crowd sing specific punchlines ("just like before", "beneath my skin") that everyone knows. Emily is letting the crowd sing in random parts of the songs and also parts which are harder to sing for her. I think it is obvious that she is dodging some parts whereas with Chester you would be like "how tf does he do that". Like the bridge of numb, or the prechorus of Crawling. This leads to the crowd (which has a lot of casuals nowadays) either not knowing the part or not being able to sing it, especially with the higher pitches. Quote

I'd like to give her the benefit of the doubt and remind myself that she is singing songs that weren't made for her voice but rather for an icon and legend in Chester fucking Bennington. she may not hit every song like him but the fact that she's been able to handle most of it in a 2 hour set, we'll be fine.

LeonardoMF93 Posted June 15 Posted June 15 Obviously, Emily doesn't sing some parts of some songs because she can't reach the right note. But that's not really a problem. The older songs were not written for her, and she performs most of them very very very well. In fact, this technique of letting the crowd sing certain parts of a song isn't even noticed by most people in the audience. Only those of us who follow every show (which is probably about 0.1% of the audience) notice it. We forget that these shows are planned for a single night, not to be followed from show to show like we do. That's why the fact that she skips some parts is barely noticed by the vast majority of the audience. They go to that one show, enjoy it, and then move on without following the rest of the tour.

Pretty sure that someone in the fan base can replace the audio of the Multishow video with the new Unshatter Soundtrack and that would be the best version of the show. I dont think that they Will release the full.show and for sure they are going to create a music video for Unshatter. Wish the film had another title Linkin Park LET YOU FADE Film. That song its pretty fucking emotional and sounds like Meteora its the best FZ song, Unshatter its not a bad song but its just a decent song it doesn't even sounds like a real song the quality of it its similar to a demo. "Unshatter" is a great song, one of the best songs on From Zero. "Let You Fade" is also good. On 6/13/2026 at 2:03 AM, RYG4R said: Double Disc for the soundtrack, please. Night 1 and 2 setlist please. I hope they include Friendly Fire, My December, LOATR, BTH and all the rare songs that is nowhere to be found on 2025/2026 tour. I’d really like it if all 30 different songs from both nights were included on the live soundtrack. I’m not that big a fan of "Friendly Fire"; "My December" is much better after all, it’s a classic Linkin Park track from way back. 16 hours ago, RogueSoul said: Personally I think it's smarter to release more tracks that Emily doesn't already sing on in the studio versions right now than to have more live versions of FZ songs - and this is coming from the #1 Stained fan lol.

The live version of the song is quite good - Emily's vocals are strong, she hits the high notes well, and the rhythm guitar packs a massive punch. They have really dialed that one in well in the live show. Quote

MMM Posted June 17 Posted June 17 I like how she does it with BID. I always thought it was a mediocre live song but this jumping and giving the voice to the fans in the chorus makes a lot of fun. Quote

This is like saying that Oppenheimer fails to understand atoms. She is a world class performer. I don't think she needs to take classes from you on how to do her job better Quote
