Earlier this week we asked you tweet us, using the hashtag #ChesterLyrics, a picture of you holding your favourite Chester Bennington lyrics up on a card, together with an explanation as to why the lyrics are so important to you. 

There's a been a massive response so far, which is a testament to how many lives Chester enriched.

We've put a few responses in the gallery above. Keep 'em coming, folks, and we'll do another gallery early next week week or something.

Pick up a commemorative issue of our magazine this week; 26p from each issue sold in the UK and online through Newsstand.co.uk goes straight to the One More Light fund, established in Chester’s memory by Music For Relief, the charity he co-founded.

The issue contains a 12 pages dedicated to Chester and the concert that happened last weekend, including an exclusive tribute by Mike Shinoda, interviews with many of the guest stars at Friday’s event, and a full write-up featuring exclusive pictures from the show.
