M: Many of you have asked about an old demo that is floating around. The song is called “She Couldn’t.” We recorded it in 1999 during the making of Hybrid Theory, but it never made an album and was never released by us. For legal reasons, that's all I can say about the song, but I hope this clears things up!

Maybe Chester liked the song and want it to be in a future album.

 

also lyrics part of Chester somehow match the feel of Dead By Sunrise :

 

I've seen her smiling

The sunlight is shining on her now

She couldn't stay here

She knows you won't let her down

 

You know she couldn't stay here with you

You know she had to go

Even though she couldn't stay here with you

You know you're not alone

***

I see her shining

The sunlight's crying for her now

She wouldn't stay here

She knows you won't let her down

Now looking at the tracklist of the album what title can match the song ?

 

03. Too Late ?

Uhh...no. This is just a really dumb idea, honestly. She Couldn't was a collaborative effort by Hybrid Theory as a band, Dead By Sunrise is Chester's solo project. Putting She Couldn't on a Dead By Sunrise album makes about as much sense as putting In the End on a Dead By Sunrise album.

 

The "legal reasons" that they can't talk about it are due to sample clearance issues.

Yeah, a very weird idea indeed. It wouldn't make any sense at all. I agree that the lyrics and song structure aren't very typical of an LP song from that era, but the idea that Chester would take an old Hybrid Theory demo from 1999 and put it on the DBS album is just ludicrous... lol. I don't really see how Too Late would be a fitting title for She Couldn't anyway... So far, all of the title's from Dead By Sunrise are extremely straight forward.
