During their show recently at MetLife Stadium, Coldplay’s Chris Martin performed a moving cover Linkin Park’s ‘Crawling’ on piano. Though he stumbled and restarted in the song, he noted he knew the performance would end on Youtube and he wanted to do it “respectfully”. He did just that on the second take, showing off the late great Chester Bennington’s lyrics about his struggles with mental health and how touching those words were from someone who has now passed on.
