This version of the song helped me realize that my feelings are valid. From the instrumentals to vocals, it's done so well and adequately enough for me to think yeah my feelings are real and I'm not the only one who feels them
I believe this version shows a side of being just out frustrated with how much depression weighs us down, The original was showing more of the sad side of it. I like that this version shows a whole different level of constantly being trapped in the dark place where your mind can't escape. Both are very emotionally driven in different ways and help cope with depression in many ways.
The original hits you hard, so does this. But for different reasons. The original is sad. It's someone giving up. It portrays the sadness. This one shows the anger of depression. It's someone angry at the fact that they can't let go. They're angry at themselves for being depressed. The original is a cry for help. This is a demand for help. Both are amazing though
The original really mirroring what's the singer situation and I felt really sad the first time heard it. I'm shocked that in the end depression got him. Rest in peace Chester. His spirit and his legacy still here among us
You fucking guys did a good job with this song. Plain and simple. It doesn’t take away from the pain Chester was feeling in his emotions. I honestly feel like he would approve of this cover. Keep up the great work
@@coreyjohnston1629 He would appreciate how this version expresses the anger that many feel on top of depression. The anger he couldn't express because he reached the final point of it.
I seriously feel this so deep. I know there are so many people that say the original shows the sadness that Chester was feeling but I really identify more with the anger and frustration and desperation I feel in this version. I freaking love this so much.
I identified with both at one point. But the anger one was first for me. It's weird because it felt like the 5 stages of grief. Denial, anger, bargaining, "depression" will say sadness, and acceptance. To me being frustrated shows a fighting attitude, fighting to cling on to what little threads of life you still have. Anger, screaming, and pain all prove your still alive. The silent cold feeling is an acceptance the pulls you under, slowly giving up as you feel no one is coming to save you. That final moment is the hardest because you're desperately in the need of help. Fortunately for me, someone extended their hand out, someone who understood and pulled me out of the ocean of deep despair. I love both of these styles more so now that I have experience both emotions deeply.
It's been years now, I still think about Chester from time to time. I remember Linkin Park as a new band and liking them from the start, so much great music over the years. He was so great at filling his music with emotion...to think he carried so much sadness and pain inside. He wasn't just singing it, it was his life. Trauma kills slowly
Rest in peace Chester, The greatest Singer of all time. The guy who had saved my life, The guy who is still helping me to battle depression. Whenever I had felt depressed, lonely, neglected, sad, hopeless, guilty, I used to lie over my bed and then I started playing Chester's song and within the touch of his voice, I used to feel hopeful and happy. His songs had not only showed me how to break habits, how to resist myself from drug abuse or drinking alcohol, But His songs showed me the way of light. How to overcome, How to achieve anything, How to feel happy. Yeh. I could not make friends at my school or coachings. Every one used to make fun of me. Within these 10 years I had lost many of my beloved people. 3 years ago, I lost my beloved cousin whom I used to recall as my sister. 4 Years ago, I lost Both of my Grandfathers. Not to mention, My favorite TV celebrities. But Chester's voice and his tremendous meaningful lyrics used to act like magical remedies for those scarces. I will never know myself until I do this on my own And I will never feel anything else, until my wounds are healed I will never be anything 'til I break away from me I will break away, I'll find myself today" This song used to fill the gap of my loneliness and whenever I used listen to this song, I would find my cheek wet. Chester was like a member of my family. I had a plan to meet him one day. But that day had converted to a fairy tale. I lost him forever. Perhaps, From Outside everyone is thinking that I am happy and ok. But from inside, I am virtually empty now. Perhaps, No one will be able occupy his place, No one will be able to make comparision between themselves and Him. And while writting this post, I was crying like that 7 years old Saiful. 😭💔Why Chester Why? You could live for us. Millions of people like me loves you. Your life was priceless to us. You gave me the light You touched my life, Your legacy will be immortalized. Rip Chester. See You Again.
I feel you too. These guys pretty much nailed the cover. I'd literally given up on everyone who tried to make a rock version and sucked to the core. This is probably my favorite rock cover of Heavy of all time now.
I miss Chester so much. He left us so soon. 😢 We love you so much Chester.💗 You meant a lot to people like me. Even now his songs saves me from my demons and gives me courage. His songs always made me feel like I wasn't the only one going through things like this in my life. His songs saved me in so many ways. He was a true angel. 😭
Now I get why Chester didn't want it to be Rock. The more I listen to the original the more the song feels sad. That sad melody was how it was sung in his head until his death. Don't get me wrong, this Rock version is great as well, but I think the original is so much better right now when you know Chester was feeling then. He wasn't feeling any energy, but instead felt no energy because of all the things he was going through. For all those reasons, I think i prefer the original as well.

Linkin Park is hugely responsible for me making it through a extreme period of my life when everything sucked and you guys carry his legacy on and it makes me so freaking happy 🖤🥀

[Outro: Rain Paris & Fame on Fire] Why is everything so heavy? Why is everything so heavy? Why is everything so heavy? Why is everything so heavy?
I'll be honest. I was one of those that asked why LP made a new album in a more pop-style. But after listening to the music, I could feel his pain. I listened to One More Light the night before his death was announced, and when I read online that he had died I understood. These songs are his last words, to us, to keep holding on. Even if there is hurt, and pain, and all these problems dragging us down, just hold on. I know I'm trying to, even though my demons are fighting me. I'll fight back. And you'll fight back your demons too..
I will say this, as someone who has complained about missing Linkin Park after Hybrid Theory and Meteora, I respect the band for giving me the music that they did that I enjoyed and loved, I respect the fact that they want to experiment with new sounds. I only wish they would give us one or two songs on each album that throw back to the original sound they brought to the table with those first two albums. Many other bands break up, or take a permanent hiatus the difference is I feel most bands have others out there that bring a similar sound to the table. Other bands that keep the fire lit for the genera and sub-genera they represent, and sound they provide to their fan-base. Those help to fill the gap when this happens. The problem is there is literally no one else that has the same sound as Linkin Park did in the early days, NO ONE, they left me and others that feel like this with a musical void in our souls that is screaming for new lyrics delivered in that familiar and beloved style while calling out to current world events, feelings, sociopolitical issues, etc... So I'm holding out hope for one or two songs on this next album that may give me that. Hold out hope with me... Until then this cover is amazing. Regardless of my dislike for the originals sound and tempo, Chester and the boys can write some good lyrics still. Thank you Fame On Fire for taking the time to deliver this awesome rendition of a lyrically complex and wonderful song. Please when the album releases pick a few more songs and rock them out for us, we will be waiting eagerly.
Part of them taking a chance on new sounds is to express different things. They got more fans. Who even took it upon themselves to look into their older albums. Linkin park is a band that even new and old fans go out and buy old albums for and new. They are a band that survived change. As time goes on and changes so do those around us. From ashes to new is a amazing band to look up indeed! Found them on accident. Amazing. I will always love linkin park. But t here are reasons Chester had one more light the way he did......
I don't have any nu metal to tell you about. But if you like this, you _might_ like Chelsea Grin and Suicide Silence. I said might because it is death metal.
Not sure how I am just now finding this song but so glad I did. It has so much feelings and is a great one to listen to at this point in my life with my current struggles.... Why Does everything in life have to be so heavy? 😢
I have probably listened to this song a thousand times... it finally gave me the courage to talk about my problems and the weight that I feel I can’t get out from under.... thank you. This cover is amazing and the original is wicked too.... RIP Chester.
Been listening to Linkin Park for 17 years, and after Chester passed away last week, i realized i need to find a new favorite band and i think i just found one :D all of your covers are really great
I love FOF but all y'all that are saying this should be the original don't understand music. Chester wanted you to feel it, not hear it. That's why there weren't heavy instruments. Great cover with that being said.
Came to youtube to watch Amy Lee and Lzzy Hale cover this .. And thought "I wish Rain Paris would cover this song!" And then i found this!! 😍🙌🤘 Love her voice!
I found this song last year after my sister passed away it reminded me of her and helped me realize that she wouldn’t want me crying over her she would want me to be happy and live my life for her thank you for this cover it truly did help me I. The darkest place of my life R.I.P Chasity I love you big sis
Holy shit! I always excitedly look forward to your next covers. You always do a perfect job.. but guys.. this is amazing! This is so much better than the original! I love it and.. I'm shaking and smiling like an idiot.. You know what? First I thought that my favourite cover is Rise, then it was Black beatles, and then Side to side and Shape of you.. but now THIS is my favourite! Bryan your voice is fucking awesome! But the best - and that's why I love your covers - is that you can revive rock music from a weak song, like Adele - Hello. I hated this song, but when I found your cover I fell in love with it, and I fell in love with Fame On Fire! Guys, please never stop doing what you do. Fame On Fire's every member is a little miracle! Yours songs make the world a better place. Thank you so much for making me happy, love you guys! Many many kisses
Why people always comparing other cover songs to LP? Because they still looking what they want to hear from LP? I don't care if they change their genre. Be thankful instead of hating their new music genre. And be thankful because they still making music. Now Chester is died. Do you think they will release another music? Rest In Peace Chester Bennington :
Miss Princesse Se serait le top serieux, enfin une fille qui ecoute du rock, sa change de tout ses cliches qui sont que seuls les motard avec des barbes ecoutent du rock x)
This shows the other side of depression. The pissed off angry side. And an amazing cover. You haters need to accept LP songs are going to be remade whether us the real liking park fans like it or not
omg yall did a great job my mom loves linkin park and she said no one can do a cover of heavy and make it sound good but then she heard your cover and she cried she loved it so much!!
I wish this was the original but at the same time, this version and our last nights version are both good and prays and hopes for Linkin Park for his familys and friends and all his fans
I like this version and the original. Sadness has 2 faces: depression and rage. If you can't honestly see that, then you probably haven't felt what it's like to lose a love one (granted, I did watch this one after Back To You but that's besides the point). Now my only concern about it was, the duet, couldn't exactly hear the girl's voice through the singer but it was nice to have a soft tone in the song. 😇
i personally think both are equally awesome. I love the hardness and screaming of this cover but i still love the soft, makes you want to cry feeling of the original. Congrats to FOF and to LP for making great version all in there own
For those saying that this is how the song should've originally been done, no. This song was intended to embody the feeling of being so utterly defeated that you barely had the energy to even sing. It wasn't meant to be another angry or frustrated song about the world around us. It was meant to be about the inner demons that are inside our heads, the things others can't see, and the feeling that even though you know things aren't a total mess, you can't help feeling like the weight of the world is on your shoulders and that you aren't strong enough to keep standing. So, no. This was a great cover, but Heavy was perfect the way it was. You could feel how sorrowful and lonely it was, like Chester was exhausted and ready to throw in the towel, and he did.
@@rowenchaos Wrong. Don't ever fucking blame other people(when someone commits suicide)for having a harmless opinion. Chester was just tired and done with life, and it's nobody's fault. You poor excuse for a human being.
I actually like both versions equally. Because people who feel like leaving this world just don't have a sense of hopelessness. Some of them are also frustrated and angry.
@@jjmiles7173 Exactly. I lean more towards the frustrated and angry side of the depression spectrum. I feel my depression robbing me of energy and joy when inside I'm tearing at the walls trying everything I can to just break through the surface, get a breath, and get stuff done. To paraphrase a quote I love "He had the will, but not the power."
Honestly I feel like people need to back off Linkin Park. I have been a fan of them ever since I can remember, yea I do miss the old Linkin Park where they were alternative rock but look at who is listening to music these days. There are so many people who follow pop more than anything and some bands could be trying to adjust (not to say this is exactly what they are doing). Other bands are trying new things and switch it up. I feel like we need to give Linkin Park some credit because "Heavy" is not a bad song at all I just think people are stuck in the old rock days for them. I get and understand they are an alternative rock band but the music industry is hard to stay in for as long as they have and sometimes readjustments are needed to stay in it. This is all just my opinion if you disagree that is perfectly okay, everyone is entitled for their own opinion. I think Fame On Fire did a really good cover as they have with all their others but I do think Linkin Park needs more credit then people are giving them.
I really appreciate the way you have given this song a little bit more of the older Linkin Park style. I love all of the different kinds of music they played. The kind of song they played earlier with the harder sound and the softer ones with the deeper text in the end. But you combined both of the music types. Very nice job you did there.
All the fake fans saying why couldn't linkin park make new songs like this and didn't appreciate the amazing work chesteter did with a meaning behind every lyric and now you all come back saying you understand now because of his death
I don't like my mind right now Stacking up problems that are so unnecessary Wish that I could slow things down I wanna let go but there's comfort in the panic And I drive myself crazy Thinking everything's about me Yeah, I drive myself crazy 'Cause I can't escape the gravity I'm holding on Why is everything so heavy? Holding on So much more than I can carry I keep dragging around what's bringing me down If I just let go, I'd be set free Holding on Why is everything so heavy? You say that I'm paranoid But I'm pretty sure the world is out to get me It's not like I make the choice To let my mind stay so fucking messy I know I'm not the center of the universe But you keep spinning 'round me just the same I know I'm not the center of the universe But you keep spinning…
God I love the contrast to the original. Both are fantastic. The original shows the sad side of dealing with mental illness. While this version shows the utter frustration of not being able to be “normal”. I love both of them so much.
She must've done something that pissed them off, because the title and description originally had her name in it. They then removed it and replaced the description with just the word "nope" for a while. Then they changed it to what it is now with no mention of her. I don't know what she did, but seems pretty immature.
This is a good cover, damn good really, but it completely changes the mood and emotion that Chester and LP wanted the song to show. This was defiant and angry, which again made for a bomb ass cover for sure, but that's not what Chester was feeling when Heavy was created. He wanted help and support and love, which a nu-metal version of the song wouldn't have conveyed. Yeah OML sounded different from the HT era Linkin Park, but it was still LP, fans didn't have to like or even listen to it, but to go out of their way to shit on it? We all see how that ended, damn guys.
If there's anyone to blame for Chester's death, it's the monster that raped him for years, not the people who hated OML. Chester himself acknowledged that he had a lot of support for his new album plus he still appreciated his old fans even if they didn't like the new album. Chris Cornell's death was a big part of his suicide too. As for the cover, to me it's symbolic, the nu metal instrumentation represents the heavy thoughts in your head and the singing/almost yelling is like trying to fight it or make sense of it; to each their own, but as someone with depression I feel like it describes depression in a unique but accurate way.
Logan Shuman good thoughts. I agree with you. With heavy guitars and intense vocals it also conveys a sense of anxiety in the music which someone under such pressure may feel
I am so sorry for the hate you received for this comment. I can only agree with you in your opinion. Sure, it wasn't Hybrid Theory or Meteora, heck it wasn't even Living Things, but it was still Linkin Park.
So many arguments here about which version is better, the sad original or the angry cover. Depression hits different people in different ways, some feel sadness, some feel frustration, some feel helplessness, some feel anger... so I think everyone with any form of depression, those who know someone who suffers from it, and those who understand the condition, can relate to either version. The meaning of the lyrics doesn't change, the message that they give is the same, it's just looking at the world through a different set of eyes and expressing a different set of emotions. Neither is "better" (they are both excellent renditions), they just strike different nerves in each of us. Respect for Chester for wearing his heart on his sleeve and finding an outlet for his emotions. Respect to Fame On Fire for giving us some awesome twists on songs we know and love. For another take on it, try my mashup th-cam.com/video/-4OVgtIwX3k/w-d-xo.html
I listened chesters og version...it makes so much sense...my hearts torn in two but this song upbeats the feeling of it and thank you for bringing light to this song i love it
Ed Sheeran - rock cover by Fame On Fire Iggy Azalea - rock cover by Fame On Fire Katy Perry - rock cover by Fame On Fire _Linkin Park_ - rock cover by Fame On Fire Related videos + this video. THAT REALLY SAYS A LOT.
Absolutely love you guys. Chester would be so proud. You grasped the song perfectly and exerted the anger it has. If theres ever a perfect cover song this is it. You guys have literally become one of my fav bands thanks to this i now listen to all your songs. Brilliant guys
Holy shit. This just gave me chills. I've loved Linkin Park forever, and this song was something I could relate to so much, you guys stepped it up even BETTER 😱

That final moment is the hardest because you're desperately in the need of help.

yah, me too, when i listened original Heavy and then I search "Heavy rock cover" and this song is the best of what I've heard
Zayn Alam phedora also did a very good job on this song

when a song hits deep & gives you chills..
i love the anger theme that goes with the stess with things like depression, anxiety etc, its so damn relatable!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I miss Chester so much. He left us so soon. 😢
We love you so much Chester.💗
You meant a lot to people like me.
Even now his songs saves me from my demons and gives me courage.
His songs always made me feel like I wasn't the only one going through things like this in my life. His songs saved me in so many ways. He was a true angel. 😭
2:09 gives me chills dude This is the most underrated band I've ever seen

I agree and very well said by the way.
Ibrahim Hussain Rasheed this is beautiful and I quite agree. I liked the softness of the original. I like the new L.P. sound myself
Ibrahim Hussain Rasheed it's true. The Way Chester sings it is the way it was meant to be. I hate this rock cover

And while writting this post, I was crying like that 7 years old Saiful. 😭💔Why Chester Why? You could live for us. Millions of people like me loves you.
Your life was priceless to us.
You gave me the light
You touched my life,
Your legacy will be immortalized.
Rip Chester.
See You Again.
Lewts do the same!
Both versions resonate deeply, capturing the struggle in unique ways. Can't wait for LEVELS!
Linkin Park is hugely responsible for me making it through a extreme period of my life when everything sucked and you guys carry his legacy on and it makes me so freaking happy 🖤🥀
Imagine: OLN and Fame On Fire do a song together. Or cover. Or tour. Or SOMETHING together!
Barca Ch let's tell them
Gave me chills, I think Chester would be so proud. ❤

[Verse 1: Bryan James]
I don’t like my mind right now
It's stacking up problems that are so unnecessary
Wish that I could slow things down
I wanna let go, but there’s comfort in the panic
[Pre-Chorus 1: Bryan James]
And I drive myself crazy
Thinking everything's about me
Yeah, I drive myself crazy
'Cause I can't escape the gravity
[Chorus: Fame on Fire & Rain Paris]
I'm holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
Holding on
It's so much more than I can carry
I keep dragging around what's bringing me down
If I just let go, I'd be set free
Holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
[Verse 2: Rain Paris]
You say that I'm paranoid
But I'm pretty sure, the world is out to get me
It's not like I make the choice
To let my mind stay so fucking messy
[Pre-Chorus 2: Rain Paris]
I know I'm not the center of the universe
But you keep spinning 'round me just the same
I know I'm not the center of the universe
But you keep spinning 'round me just the same
[Chorus: Fame on Fire]
I'm holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
Holding on
It's so much more than I can carry
I keep dragging around, what's bringing me down
If I just let go, I'd be set free
Holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
[Bridge: Bryan James]
I know I'm not the center of the universe
But you keep spinning 'round me just the same
I know I'm not the center of the universe
But you keep spinning 'round me just the same
And I drive myself crazy
Thinking everything's about me
[Chorus: Fame on Fire & Rain Paris]
I'm holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
Holding on
It's so much more than I can carry
I keep dragging around what's bringing me down
If I just let go, I'd be set free
I'm holding on
Why is everything so heavy?..
[Outro: Rain Paris & Fame on Fire]
Why is everything so heavy?
Why is everything so heavy?
Why is everything so heavy?
Why is everything so heavy?
Chester be smiling in heaven over the brilliance of your homage. It's beautiful. Thank yous so much from Arizona💞
Looooove
This is such a an unbelievably beautiful rendition of this song. Absolutely flawless
Her voice gives me chills and goosebumps everytime I hear this track. Rock on 🤘
Rain Paris is her name..... in case you've not found her yet
For real
Out of all the covers, this will no doubt be the best one! Well done lads!
I'll be honest. I was one of those that asked why LP made a new album in a more pop-style. But after listening to the music, I could feel his pain. I listened to One More Light the night before his death was announced, and when I read online that he had died I understood. These songs are his last words, to us, to keep holding on. Even if there is hurt, and pain, and all these problems dragging us down, just hold on.
I know I'm trying to, even though my demons are fighting me. I'll fight back.
And you'll fight back your demons too..
never stop
I will say this, as someone who has complained about missing Linkin Park after Hybrid Theory and Meteora, I respect the band for giving me the music that they did that I enjoyed and loved, I respect the fact that they want to experiment with new sounds.
I only wish they would give us one or two songs on each album that throw back to the original sound they brought to the table with those first two albums.
Many other bands break up, or take a permanent hiatus the difference is I feel most bands have others out there that bring a similar sound to the table. Other bands that keep the fire lit for the genera and sub-genera they represent, and sound they provide to their fan-base. Those help to fill the gap when this happens.
The problem is there is literally no one else that has the same sound as Linkin Park did in the early days, NO ONE, they left me and others that feel like this with a musical void in our souls that is screaming for new lyrics delivered in that familiar and beloved style while calling out to current world events, feelings, sociopolitical issues, etc...
So I'm holding out hope for one or two songs on this next album that may give me that.
Hold out hope with me...
Until then this cover is amazing.
Regardless of my dislike for the originals sound and tempo, Chester and the boys can write some good lyrics still.
Thank you Fame On Fire for taking the time to deliver this awesome rendition of a lyrically complex and wonderful song.
Please when the album releases pick a few more songs and rock them out for us, we will be waiting eagerly.
Well if you want more nu-metal sounding bands check out Darke Complex, fire from the gods, and BackWordz
Trae Shorter from ashes to new. you can thank me later.
there wont be no more new albums
Part of them taking a chance on new sounds is to express different things. They got more fans. Who even took it upon themselves to look into their older albums. Linkin park is a band that even new and old fans go out and buy old albums for and new. They are a band that survived change. As time goes on and changes so do those around us.
From ashes to new is a amazing band to look up indeed! Found them on accident. Amazing.
I will always love linkin park. But t here are reasons Chester had one more light the way he did......
I don't have any nu metal to tell you about. But if you like this, you _might_ like Chelsea Grin and Suicide Silence. I said might because it is death metal.
Not sure how I am just now finding this song but so glad I did. It has so much feelings and is a great one to listen to at this point in my life with my current struggles.... Why Does everything in life have to be so heavy? 😢
I have probably listened to this song a thousand times... it finally gave me the courage to talk about my problems and the weight that I feel I can’t get out from under.... thank you. This cover is amazing and the original is wicked too.... RIP Chester.
Been listening to Linkin Park for 17 years, and after Chester passed away last week, i realized i need to find a new favorite band and i think i just found one :D all of your covers are really great
seriously...its a whole another level. not everyone can cover linkin park so potentially. i just love it and i cant stop listening this version
Its so good i didnt even know it was a linkin park cover
I love FOF but all y'all that are saying this should be the original don't understand music. Chester wanted you to feel it, not hear it. That's why there weren't heavy instruments. Great cover with that being said.
This version carrys the same message as the original, just showing you another side of the same story
My dear man, that is exactly why these people made a rock cover....you see, thats what they 'feel' .
Idk why I got chills watching this her voice is so pure and I'm glad you have your own twist instead of trying to be an exact copy great job
holy hell her voice gave me goosebumps
got this playing as a tab in the background during class and wasn't expecting that beauty
The scream at 2:09 is exactly what I want! Thanks! It's awesome!
That's the only thing I hate about this cover
Chun Yu Wan I think it doesn't fit in this song :/
I think if it is "heavy", heavy all the way :/
But don't worry, there are plenty covers out there!
This cover is still awesome!
Chun Yu Wan I'm glad this song is actually heavy. the original was kind a disappointment
Chun Yu Wan I know, I think I listened to 5-6 covers and remixes and this one is my 2nd favorite :) 1st one is Zwier.z remix :)
i can´t believe that has been 3 years... i love this song every day
Came to youtube to watch Amy Lee and Lzzy Hale cover this .. And thought "I wish Rain Paris would cover this song!" And then i found this!! 😍🙌🤘 Love her voice!
Amy Lee would be a buzz
Nice to see rain in the video looking back now RIP Chester great job fame on fire
I found this song last year after my sister passed away it reminded me of her and helped me realize that she wouldn’t want me crying over her she would want me to be happy and live my life for her thank you for this cover it truly did help me I. The darkest place of my life R.I.P Chasity I love you big sis
Holy shit!
I always excitedly look forward to your next covers. You always do a perfect job.. but guys.. this is amazing! This is so much better than the original! I love it and.. I'm shaking and smiling like an idiot.. You know what? First I thought that my favourite cover is Rise, then it was Black beatles, and then Side to side and Shape of you.. but now THIS is my favourite! Bryan your voice is fucking awesome! But the best - and that's why I love your covers - is that you can revive rock music from a weak song, like Adele - Hello. I hated this song, but when I found your cover I fell in love with it, and I fell in love with Fame On Fire! Guys, please never stop doing what you do. Fame On Fire's every member is a little miracle! Yours songs make the world a better place. Thank you so much for making me happy, love you guys!
Many many kisses
2:07 caught me off guard 😂 his singing is awesome!
RIP Chester. I love the softer original Linkin Park version but I still needed to hear this song this way 🤘 thanks Fame On Fire
I need more music fame on fire you guys are so alsome. Amazing voice the lead singer has got
he's got such an amazing voice. Between that and really capturing that pain they nailed this cover !!
Hell yea! Can we take a sec and appreciate Rain's performance!? Well, the whole damn song should be appreciated
Why people always comparing other cover songs to LP? Because they still looking what they want to hear from LP? I don't care if they change their genre. Be thankful instead of hating their new music genre. And be thankful because they still making music. Now Chester is died. Do you think they will release another music? Rest In Peace Chester Bennington :
I love covers!! Especially when my heart is so fucking cold....
These guys are just great all the way around.
Beautifully done! Job well done @FameOnFire. One of my favorite L.P. songs!
Trop bien^^ j'adore trop c'est top
Akako Kagami Enfin un francais xD
J'adore leurs covers elles sont vraiment top et comme je les aurai imagines x)
Ash World Des français 🙌🙌🙌
Miss Princesse Ah bah en voila une maintenant xD
Faut trop que les fr se manifeste xD
Ash World oui comme ça peut-être qu'ils viendront un jour en France 😍😍
Miss Princesse Se serait le top serieux, enfin une fille qui ecoute du rock, sa change de tout ses cliches qui sont que seuls les motard avec des barbes ecoutent du rock x)
This is a fucking best cover of LP song ever😍😍 i love it😍 your voice (scream) is fantastic💜
I love how he Screams and Sings at basically the same time
please come to DFW texas!!!!!!!
Amazing Rock cover! I love seeing Rain Paris on a song like this. Her voice is perfect!! RIP Chester
This shows the other side of depression. The pissed off angry side. And an amazing cover. You haters need to accept LP songs are going to be remade whether us the real liking park fans like it or not
This cover is better than other covers 😍
FoF tends to do that
omg yall did a great job my mom loves linkin park and she said no one can do a cover of heavy and make it sound good but then she heard your cover and she cried she loved it so much!!
amazing rendition.....this is AS good as anything I've heard...for me,...THE BEST!!!!!!!
You can rock in FIRE everything, I REALLY LOVE THIS!!!
I wish this was the original but at the same time, this version and our last nights version are both good and prays and hopes for Linkin Park for his familys and friends and all his fans
I like this version and the original. Sadness has 2 faces: depression and rage. If you can't honestly see that, then you probably haven't felt what it's like to lose a love one (granted, I did watch this one after Back To You but that's besides the point).
Now my only concern about it was, the duet, couldn't exactly hear the girl's voice through the singer but it was nice to have a soft tone in the song. 😇
Are you and Our Last Night competing ? Lol
Nick Czarnick Covers xD
Haha no we love what they do, just had this is the works before they dropped theirs : )
Nick Czarnick Covers Now I want a compilation between OLN and FOF thanks lol. :D
Nick Czarnick Covers if they are, OLN has the popular vote. lol
Tanner Grab They don't just win by popular vote, they win the vote based on the better music.
Awesome band. Awesome voices y’all got, holy toledo. Takes my breath away
i personally think both are equally awesome. I love the hardness and screaming of this cover but i still love the soft, makes you want to cry feeling of the original. Congrats to FOF and to LP for making great version all in there own
Maybe the screaming at 2:09 was a little too much but w/e this version still rocks! Loved it :D
For those saying that this is how the song should've originally been done, no. This song was intended to embody the feeling of being so utterly defeated that you barely had the energy to even sing. It wasn't meant to be another angry or frustrated song about the world around us. It was meant to be about the inner demons that are inside our heads, the things others can't see, and the feeling that even though you know things aren't a total mess, you can't help feeling like the weight of the world is on your shoulders and that you aren't strong enough to keep standing. So, no. This was a great cover, but Heavy was perfect the way it was. You could feel how sorrowful and lonely it was, like Chester was exhausted and ready to throw in the towel, and he did.
Those who were/are saying that are part of the reason why Chester is gone.
Yes EXACTLY
@@rowenchaos Wrong. Don't ever fucking blame other people(when someone commits suicide)for having a harmless opinion. Chester was just tired and done with life, and it's nobody's fault.
You poor excuse for a human being.
I actually like both versions equally.
Because people who feel like leaving this world just don't have a sense of hopelessness. Some of them are also frustrated and angry.
@@jjmiles7173 Exactly. I lean more towards the frustrated and angry side of the depression spectrum. I feel my depression robbing me of energy and joy when inside I'm tearing at the walls trying everything I can to just break through the surface, get a breath, and get stuff done. To paraphrase a quote I love "He had the will, but not the power."
Honestly I feel like people need to back off Linkin Park. I have been a fan of them ever since I can remember, yea I do miss the old Linkin Park where they were alternative rock but look at who is listening to music these days. There are so many people who follow pop more than anything and some bands could be trying to adjust (not to say this is exactly what they are doing). Other bands are trying new things and switch it up. I feel like we need to give Linkin Park some credit because "Heavy" is not a bad song at all I just think people are stuck in the old rock days for them. I get and understand they are an alternative rock band but the music industry is hard to stay in for as long as they have and sometimes readjustments are needed to stay in it. This is all just my opinion if you disagree that is perfectly okay, everyone is entitled for their own opinion. I think Fame On Fire did a really good cover as they have with all their others but I do think Linkin Park needs more credit then people are giving them.
So energetic cover!!! I fckng love it!!!
Nice job FOF!
#ripchesterbe
#heavy
I really appreciate the way you have given this song a little bit more of the older Linkin Park style.
I love all of the different kinds of music they played.
The kind of song they played earlier with the harder sound and the softer ones with the deeper text in the end.
But you combined both of the music types.
Very nice job you did there.
Chesteeeeer 😍😭
All the fake fans saying why couldn't linkin park make new songs like this and didn't appreciate the amazing work chesteter did with a meaning behind every lyric and now you all come back saying you understand now because of his death
I wouldn't call them Fake fans in this case. I'd say, you know; You don't know what you've got "Until It's Gone".
shaqalu gameing true
Like chester said in his song...you don't know what you've got until its gone...R.I.P Chester
shaqalu gameing
Not me. The original is still shit to me.
So, because I'm not a fan of the new, more pop-like album, I'm a fake fan?
I don't like my mind right now
Stacking up problems that are so unnecessary
Wish that I could slow things down
I wanna let go but there's comfort in the panic
And I drive myself crazy
Thinking everything's about me
Yeah, I drive myself crazy
'Cause I can't escape the gravity
I'm holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
Holding on
So much more than I can carry
I keep dragging around what's bringing me down
If I just let go, I'd be set free
Holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
You say that I'm paranoid
But I'm pretty sure the world is out to get me
It's not like I make the choice
To let my mind stay so fucking messy
I know I'm not the center of the universe
But you keep spinning 'round me just the same
I know I'm not the center of the universe
But you keep spinning…
I'm so in love with his voice! Damn!
God I love the contrast to the original. Both are fantastic.
The original shows the sad side of dealing with mental illness.
While this version shows the utter frustration of not being able to be “normal”.
I love both of them so much.
Why is everything so beautiful :}
Who is she? Her name isnt mentioned anywhere? :/
Name's Rain Paris.
She must've done something that pissed them off, because the title and description originally had her name in it. They then removed it and replaced the description with just the word "nope" for a while. Then they changed it to what it is now with no mention of her. I don't know what she did, but seems pretty immature.
RIP CHESTER
Yes rip chester
LP was and always will be my #1 favorite band but these guys have solidified a strong strong strong 2nd.
Beat music/cover ever. So underrated. Love you guys.
Headphone+Full volume feel the music
That's how i am listening it rn
My headphones are really fucking loud so it is too loud even at minimum
This is a good cover, damn good really, but it completely changes the mood and emotion that Chester and LP wanted the song to show. This was defiant and angry, which again made for a bomb ass cover for sure, but that's not what Chester was feeling when Heavy was created. He wanted help and support and love, which a nu-metal version of the song wouldn't have conveyed. Yeah OML sounded different from the HT era Linkin Park, but it was still LP, fans didn't have to like or even listen to it, but to go out of their way to shit on it? We all see how that ended, damn guys.
That’s why it’s a cover...
You don't think people going through shit are angry that they got to that point? Hmm...okay then.
If there's anyone to blame for Chester's death, it's the monster that raped him for years, not the people who hated OML. Chester himself acknowledged that he had a lot of support for his new album plus he still appreciated his old fans even if they didn't like the new album. Chris Cornell's death was a big part of his suicide too.
As for the cover, to me it's symbolic, the nu metal instrumentation represents the heavy thoughts in your head and the singing/almost yelling is like trying to fight it or make sense of it; to each their own, but as someone with depression I feel like it describes depression in a unique but accurate way.
Logan Shuman good thoughts. I agree with you. With heavy guitars and intense vocals it also conveys a sense of anxiety in the music which someone under such pressure may feel
I am so sorry for the hate you received for this comment. I can only agree with you in your opinion. Sure, it wasn't Hybrid Theory or Meteora, heck it wasn't even Living Things, but it was still Linkin Park.
One of the best covers!!
So many arguments here about which version is better, the sad original or the angry cover.
Depression hits different people in different ways, some feel sadness, some feel frustration, some feel helplessness, some feel anger... so I think everyone with any form of depression, those who know someone who suffers from it, and those who understand the condition, can relate to either version.
The meaning of the lyrics doesn't change, the message that they give is the same, it's just looking at the world through a different set of eyes and expressing a different set of emotions. Neither is "better" (they are both excellent renditions), they just strike different nerves in each of us.
Respect for Chester for wearing his heart on his sleeve and finding an outlet for his emotions.
Respect to Fame On Fire for giving us some awesome twists on songs we know and love.

REST IN PEACE CHESTER!😭❤

Any one here after chesters passing 💔💔💔💔💔
Clutch Tactics GamingTM I am and just sucks

@DJ DJ sorry you feel that way LMFAO
Clutch Tactics Gaming wow, trying to get attention
your music gives me goosebumps
I listened chesters og version...it makes so much sense...my hearts torn in two but this song upbeats the feeling of it and thank you for bringing light to this song i love it
RIP chester We are so sad
#thailand
I can'y say that this one is better then LP. Chester know better where to put the rock in the song. Because this song isn't mean to be rock song.
princessky totalk Chester does know everything, in fact, that's why so many people are jumping ship......oh wait.
Do battle symphony please
That would be interesting, though I do like the original.
Exactly i'm not exactly a fan of these 2 singles but hopefully i'll like some songs of the album
Jamil Hneini old comment, I know, but Phrenia did a cover of Battle Symphony and it's really good.
Stunning! Fame on Fire is simply THE BEST!
Yall done and amazing job 😢😢😢 Chester would be proud. why the heck am I crying now💚💚💚🙌
🤘😝
Why did they change the title and description
Ed Sheeran - rock cover by Fame On Fire
Iggy Azalea - rock cover by Fame On Fire
Katy Perry - rock cover by Fame On Fire
_Linkin Park_ - rock cover by Fame On Fire
Related videos + this video. THAT REALLY SAYS A LOT.
Absolutely love you guys. Chester would be so proud. You grasped the song perfectly and exerted the anger it has. If theres ever a perfect cover song this is it. You guys have literally become one of my fav bands thanks to this i now listen to all your songs. Brilliant guys
i think i become your fan.. esp the drum playing.. i like your drumming style
chester bennington has died, i can`t believe it
where is the love button?
R.I.P CHESTER, WE ALL REMEMBER YOU :(
Holy shit. This just gave me chills. I've loved Linkin Park forever, and this song was something I could relate to so much, you guys stepped it up even BETTER 😱
This gives me chills.
Suddenly this song is so much more real now with the news of Chesters suicide...
