I think the officer at the beginning brought the news of the boy's Father's death in combat just as the girl received the same information about her father at the end of the video. Love this song, causes chills, especially the message at the end of the video. The song was also used for the game "Medal of Honor".
That's was exactly like a military death notification visit in the beginning. They go to the home. Usually 2 officers together and one is a chaplain. During the 2 World Wars there were too many to do it that way but they usually do if they can.
I believe both soldiers in uniform are informing each child of the death of their fathers on the battle field. Note that they kneel to get face to face but keep a respectful distance. The girl cries at the news, as does the boy though his reaction is told in more detail.
That was a Navy Seal bringing the terrible news that the father had been killed in action. At the end the boy grows up and now he a seal and has the responsibility of telling families their loved one has been killed.
The boy at the beginning learns of his father's death from the officer. The boy, after idolising his father grows up and joins the seals and gets to become an officer. As an officer he has to go and knock on the door and break the same bad news to the girl at the end. It's a circle of loss.
The father was killed, man if the beginning was there to deliver the news. The 2 men behind the mother were members of the Seal team as the father. Brothers in Arms stick together, family
Exceptional song, and lyrics. To me this song can have many interpretations but for me It focused on the military, soldiers looked up to to be strong and invincible, while bringing to attention so creatively by the lyrics that basically all of us are only a Crack in the glass of such a fragile life... barely seen if at all within this fortress, the castle, that this Crack depending on our life and how and what we are dealt and deal with things can completely shatter and bring down the strong structure which is our strength, the fortress THE CASTLE. Fantastic reaction, Hap! To a hearthwrenching song!
That point where the kid puts on his father's cap, the line in the background, is "hardly anything else, I need to be". Shows how he didnt have to be anything else but follow his father's footsteps.
Hi, Thanks for the reaction. Of course I know it is Linkin Park ( Predictive text issues). As far as I am aware The boy at the beginning is the son of a Navy Seal. The Officer is informing the family of the fathers death. The boy has to deal with the loss of his father and then like so many military families, grows up to follow his father/parent into the military. The end has come full circle as he is now the officer that has to break the bad news to the next generation.
The story was about the officer informing the boy his father had died in the war so now the boy going through his father's things and the boy grows up to be a soldier and no that was not his daughter that was just a child he was informing that her one of her father or mother passed away
Wow! Never saw this. Loved it! I think I saw it differently. When the boy put on the hat, it looked like he grew up and did as his father. Because it was the same man as the boy became, when he put on the hat that had to deliver the same bad news to another child. Probably wrong....but that what videos and music are supposed to do....give different perspectives 😊 ✌️ ☮️
Haunting visuals and lyrics as usual, from Linkin Park!💕🌹 Respectful and lovely ewacion Hap. Would love to hear a reaction for "In The End". Oh the legacy of Chester Benningtion's voice. He is on the list of great ones, especially gone too soon. Peace J ✌ ☮ 💕
Great visuals to a fantastic song and as already mentioned in the comments from others I also think that the officer brings bad news to the children😔. But I have to admit that the video for me personally was occasionally a bit to much to capture as I was so busy with understanding and finding out how the lyrics does fit to this video🤔. But that’s just me as I’m still struggling with the language🤦🏻♀️. I think I have to go back and rewatch it😉. This aside, of course it is a very haunting theme to true tales and a fantastic sound🎸🎵. Thanks for the reaction HAP😊🙋🏻♀️
Growing up as an army child i knew immediately what it ment if someone in uniform showed up at the door. You always fear that moment with all your heart whenever your loved one goes across sea’s to fight. Im glad i never had this happen to me but i always feared for that day whenever my dad got deployed. Its the most terrifying thing ever for a military family
Seems to me the boy's father was killed in action. The officer at the beginning delivered the news to him. The kid grew up. Had a daughter and followed in his dad's footsteps by becoming a soldier. He too was killed in action and the officer was delivering the news to her at the end.
Hi, actually I think it was purposeful when the boy put on his father's cap and changed into a man, it lingers enough for you to see his face. He is the officer, in the end, delivering the terrible news, to a family.
I love that Linkin Park are asked to contribute a song to a video game that glorifies war, and they make a folk song and a video about the reality of war.
No matter the reason, no matter how some governments may try to justify it, at the end of the day war is hell. And it's not only the soldiers fighting the war that suffer. That's the reality of war.
#in this music video from Linkin Park castle of glass- the video his dad was a Marines that died & the commander has to break the new to his wife that he dead action but his son answered the door.... Capici
I'm very late to the party on this one so will likely never get the votes, but if you're interested in checking this out on your own, Tom Waits' war song "Hell Broke Luce" has very interesting and creative visuals. It's brutal, but very much worth it. Be warned, it's not anywhere close to "pretty" vocally as either Sound of Silence or Castle of Glass.
Chester was godfather to Chris son, and, his depression among other things seemed to really get him down. I think he had a very bad up bringing. Anyway, when he committed suicide, (Chris), Chester couldn’t handle it mentally and on Chris Cornell birthday (2 months later) 2017, he took his life the same way Chris took his.
How very very sad, 😢, we never seem to know what goes on with the artists we luv did them struggling to get famous, was it too much, among other things? We will never know, however, being a nurse and just a person who cares deeply for everyone, if more people would just be so kind and try and j us
Sorry, but, I just have a lot to say. 😢Chris Cornell has a great voice also and before either of them really got famous they had written and toured together and it didn’t stop their!
Hello servant of God .... how are you .... I'm ashamed I was bothering you I wanted to say if you want to understand the truth of being human in the world ... please praise haj mehdi Rasouli In the name of tasbeeh al zahra and hamed zamani in the name of the moon on the spear, react with English subtitles ..... In the shelter of God Almighty, be successful and proud in life exams. Forgive me if I made a mistake.

I think also the effect of drawing full circle; the man who comes to the girl at the end is the boy at the beginning grown up.
@@trenae77 history repeating itself.

It's a vid about coming full circle. The opening scene is a Navy Seal delivering the news of his father's death in combat.

@Deni Kennedy, for me it was hard to capture and bring the lyrics and the visuals together, but your thoughts hit it exactly👍😊. Thank you 🙏 🙋🏻♀️
@@VUM.M oh, thank you so much VUM, that's what I got from the song. I'm glad we thought the same. 🙂 🙏
Exceptional song
