"\"One Step Closer\" is a song by Linkin Park Lead singer Chester Bennington wrote this to express the anger he felt growing up. He didn't fit in well and got beat up a lot. Bennington wanted kids who hate themselves at times to know that he went through the same thing. He did not intend it as an excuse for self-pity or anger. This song was made after the band had frustrations making \"Runaway,\" another song on the album. (thanks, William - Indiana, IN) Hybrid Theory was the original name of the band. They used it as the name of the album, which was the best-selling album of 2001. Linkin Park performed this on the 2001 MTV Video Music awards with turntable group The X-ecutioners. A version featuring Staind lead singer Aaron Lewis appears on the album Family Values Tour 2001. On their 2002 album Reanimation, this was remixed by The Humble Brothers with vocals by Korn lead singer Jonathan Davis. The title was changed to \"1Stp Klosr.\" After 15-year-old Charles Andrew Williams killed 2 people and wounded 13 in a shooting spree at his school in Santee, California, the NBC show Dateline interviewed one of his friends, who claimed that Linkin Park's music inspired Williams to kill. This song was cited as one that encouraged Williams, with the lyrics, \"Everything you say takes me one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break.\" The vocals to \"One Step Closer\" were recorded in Mike Shinoda's flat one night while an angry neighbor hammered on the wall. He couldn't hear the actual music, just Chester Bennington screaming into the microphone. Mike Shinoda in Kerrang! magazine January 26, 2008: \"This was written in my apartment. The music came together quickly but the lyrics took a few tries. I wrote 'Shut Up' as a rough example for Chester to scream and we kept that lyric. I remember thinking that was a great calling-card song. It said, 'Hello, we are going to crush you.'\""@en . "Hybrid Theory"@en . . "no"@en . . "2000"^^ . . . .
