32 CRAWLING

Linkin Park

The second single to be released from the band’s Hybrid Theory album, Crawling won Linkin Park a Grammy in 2002 in the Best Hard Rock Performance category. Talking to Spin about the song in 2009, frontman Chester Bennington said the song “is about feeling like I had no control over myself in terms of drugs and alcohol. That feeling, being able to write about it, sing about it, that song, those words, sold millions of records, I won a Grammy, I made a lot of money.” Played live, Crawling featured guest appearances from the likes of Chris Cornell and Fred Durst.
