Linkin Park’s Heartbreak: Why ‘One More Light’ Remains Unsung on Tour
The raw emotion tied to “One More Light,” the title track from Linkin Park’s final album with Chester Bennington, has led the band to remove it from their current tour’s setlist. The song, a poignant tribute to loss and remembrance, carries too much weight for the band to perform live following Bennington’s passing.
“One More Light”: A Tribute Too Heavy to Bear

A Difficult Decision, Respectfully Understood by Fans
While fans might yearn to hear the song live, the band’s decision resonates with many who understand the depth of their loss. It serves as a reminder of the profound impact Chester Bennington had on the music world and the enduring love and respect he continues to receive.
