The song that Linkin Park stopped playing after Chester Bennington's death.

Linkin Park has revealed the one song the band will no longer play live following the death of Chester Bennington.

In an interview with The Guardian , vocalist Mike Shinoda confirmed that the track "One More Light," the title track from the 2017 album, the last one with Chester Bennington before his suicide, will remain off the setlist.

“[It was originally written] for a woman from the record label we worked with who passed away. Then, after Chester passed away, the world decided it was about him. And so it’s too sad to play,” Mike revealed.

The lead singer continued: “I think we all wanted the show to have a really good vibe. I want you to leave with the feeling that this was a wonderful, special, and fun night.”

The band returns to Brazil in November, exactly one year after their last visit to the country, with the From Zero World Tour 2025 .

The band will be performing in stadiums in the cities of São Paulo, Brasília, and Curitiba – tickets for some sections are still available for purchase on the Ticketmaster .
