    The band added a Chester chorus to Fort Minors "Kenji" and started doing it on the ATS tour. Seems like a good fit to me.

    Discuss.

    Hmm...on the surface, it seems like a fit. But I'm not so sure.

    Mike has gone out of his way to erase that A Thousand Suns has concrete ties to war. He wants people to define the music and lyrics for themselves. So adding a song he released five years ago away from Linkin Park to the ATS tour that is most definitely about something specific would sort of ruin the concept. Just my opinion.

    Although I must say, it would definitely be cool.

    Yeah, with this whole North Korea thing, it would sort of fit with current events. But that's why they have The Catalyst. Maybe we'll see HHH accapella again over the Crawling intro. That's always been badass.

    But that would be cool if they did do it. But I'm not sure what the chorus would sound like.

    I tried so hard
    and got so far
    but in the end
    I got placed in an internment camp

    I had to fall
    to lose it all
    and in the end
    it was justified by the US government as the Japanese had actually provoked war by bombing Pearl Harboooooor

    That song is personal to Mike, I don't think he'd mess around with it.

    This will never happen. As Agent O pointed out, and it's quite obvious, this is a song extremely personal to Mike, also, changing it up to have a chorus in it would really destroy the flow of the song altogether.

    Is there somebody named Chester in Fort Minor? I looked it up but couldn't find anything.

    You think you're a lot funnier than you actually are. You remind me a lot of the little freshman kids back in high school, trying to fit in with all the upperclassman, posing their little asses off to the point it became embarrassing even for people watching.

    Just a heads up.

    My apologies. I was just trying to give the most generic answer that people respond with anytime someone mentions an LP member with Fort Minor, other than Mike.

    And it seems you get offended way too easily. Not everyone is out to get you. I'll start using more smilies in my posts so people can understand my tone.

    It's not that I'm offended, it's that almost every reply I've seen you make is some attempt at a joke that is just isn't funny. At all. And it comes off as lame, like you saw somebody else doing it, noticed people seemed to like them, and then tried doing it yourself without being anywhere as clever thinking it would work just as well.

    I am in total agreement with Agent O. The song has its own vibe and personal message with Mike's rapping. It's dark, it's sorrowful, it's harsh facts. There is no way you could add a chorus to this song every 16 bars and not have it go from being an honest recollection of facts to a singy-song song. It would sound generic.
