legendary Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 Seems to be BJ's voice on the new song released for Shinoda yesterday. Starts in 1:36: "you know"...
Meliciraptor Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 Oh wow, thanks for sharing! I've been listening to the EP and I felt like I knew the voice but didn't recognize him
Billie Hoe Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 It does sound like him It's so nice that he called, I never saw any connection between Green Day and Linkin Park to be honest, except for the fact that they were two of my favorite bands. It's just a nice gesture that he thought of giving his condolences personally instead of just social media, considering (at least I think so) that they didn't really interact otherwise. I really like that song too.
WorryRock02 Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 if i'm not wrong, just after the tragedy, billie joe had written on his instagram that he had met Chester a couples of times

The Great Saiyaman Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 Man, that hits hard. Great song. Really show how great Billie is and I felt really connected to Mike in a way. I'm still not over Chester's death. Just miss that guy so much.

AmyxLongview Posted January 27, 2018 Posted January 27, 2018 The "y'know" should have been a dead giveaway that it's him

Billie Joes Eyelids Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 If it is him, he has Mike S’s phone # and doesn’t say “this is Billie Joe” unless it was edited out. Which would mean they’re fairly close, which surprises me since he said he only met Chester twice.
Red Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 I have no idea how I didn't notice this when I heard the song, but yeah, I am about 99% sure that's him, the other 1% being that its a VERY good impersonator. Regardless, as mentioned previously the "y'know" and the "uhhhh"s are really in his unique style so it's implied that its him, that being said though, these messages were not jokes and the incident was very serious, so I don't know why someone would want to imply or impersonate Billie Joe. TLDR: Yes, it's him.

I really like that song too. Interesting piece of overlap- their tour manager Mike Amato was also a tour manager for LP a few years ago. Mike is an outstanding person (someone we'd all feel privileged to call a friend and would do anything for) and I've truly been heartbroken for him about this.

jengd Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 Thought it sounded like Billie at first listen, then not so much on second. Now listened on better headphones and I think it could be him. @WhiteTim is right, just because Billie said at the time of Chester's death that he didn't know him well, doesn't mean he wouldn't phone with his condolences, they are label mates after all and you only get a snipped of the conversation so who knows what he said first. Also, I don't see any question of it being an impersonator, not aware anyone bar us is saying it is Billie?

That would explain the connection a little better and how he would have his contact info even if they weren’t close friends.
