I listen to all sorts of rock/metal and I usually hate female singers but Amy is the only exception she is a great singer/songwriter and Revolver magazines hottest woman in rock
that's some real talent--lyrics, singing, actual playing of instruments--real performances, not like the stupid bumpin, booty, blingin crap that's so embarrassing nowadays. even gaga, who has some talent, resorts to her retarded schtick to get people to pay attention. there's no real brains, nor heart, nor courage, nor soul any more.

@altjff15 Yes well u r entitled 2 your opinion....but i and many others would disagree...I would say its like 'commercilaised American Goth'....a bit like the Twilight crappy movies....I prefer Near Dark and The Lost Boys
singing as hard as she does it's amazing she has any voice at all. most people can't sing as well as her under perfect conditions never mind singing everyday at the top of her lungs battling her own voice to keep it even while jumping all over the place
lol why does everyone treat Amy Lee like some kind of godess she wrights bad lyrics and sings calm the fuck down people its the band that makes the music not bad lyrics.
@ThatFatPlumber Everyone has their own opinions on things, just cause yours is different from a lot of others doesnt give you the right to dump shit all over their opinions.
hey i have uploaded a few videos of myself singing this song (some live versions and one studio version), please watch them and let me know what you think :)
@erutseda every band who loves playing live hates to play like in a studio.why the hell would you go to a concert to hear the exact version like on cd??
They are a great studio band..however I have seen many poor performances. You people defend them because you like them..but be honest .their musicain ship as a unit is awefull.the dont pay attention or vibe with eachother at all! Each member is in their own world it seems...the are frequently out of tune and their dynamics change constantly! Is almost like they are a "Hired" band that is there to back her up yet dont practice enough together. Truth us they are way more successfull than all of us
quit talking out of your ass. You'd sound so much better talking out of your mouth.
if they are way more successful than all of us, (like you said) then you said before that must be wrong. Otherwise, (like you are trying to say) they suck.
if they were so "out of tune" then how come the whole crowd was cheering for them so much, eh? If they saw they were doing so bad (as you say) then they would be booing, right?
@sixfoursoul1 then you must of seen soem rare performences and the notes amy has to hit are hard and she got a voice problem.she forces her voice on every concert.if i'm correct she explains it once at rock am ring if i'm not wrong.
I can't stand it when people compare the vocalist to the album.
Do you realize how difficult it is to run around and sing, while doing so in front of a crowd of people? It's scary as hell, and totally energy draining.
If I didn't love the thrill of sharing music with others, I wouldnt never set foot onstage again.
@stolenfaeriechild Just because she sang the closest to the album?? I wouldn't like to hear the album in a concert, I want to see the imperfections too... And she is great always :)
With her dancing, I agree, but see her singing Lithium acoustic at AoL sessions, THATS the best live performance ever! It's better than the version from the album
After ben left, the guitar solo from going under seems to be different. Im surpried Ben let amy still sing My Immortal since he mostly wrote it. Whatever happended to this band? The last i heard is there supposed to have an album out at the end of this year.
they let amy sing my immortal because its under the name of evanescence, it was his choice to leave. and they both said that they both changed it so it was equal credit, aparently
well ben's new band we are the fallen perform songs like going under and bring me to life even though amy wrote a good amount of those or a lot of those. There's going to be a new album out next year. 2010
really i wasnt aware of thats but ur 100% right just looked it up apparently he left at the begining of the 03 tour because of creative differences lol w/e that is idk (mayb he was upset cus everyone knows evanescence could be called the amy lee show , however on a funnier note he went on to record for lindsay lohan an avril lavigne lol )
i dont really think that she messed up on accident..i think that since its a pretty long song--and they only have so much time to do the grammys--she might have meant to do it.
i know.. but if other people said something then they could read that ... i just thought i'd kill two birds with one stone.. if you get what that means...
ok toa ll your evenescence fans out there! this band was nothing new it was only something new in the usa! in europe has since years a rock rothic band with a woman at the fron and evenescene are not the best when you compre with other band who makes the same music then would evenescensce go under and the music isnt something new its the tipcal commercial music that in this time was modern in usa
50 Cent is a talentless hack. Sure, he may have sold many records that year, but it's been downhill since then. When you invest in a video game that attempts (and fails) to make you look badass, you know you're desperate for money and attention.
hey to the genius that thinks this is from when they first started out, this is about 2 years after they got their record deal and about 4 or 5 years after they formed as a band, this is after Ben Moody left the band.
This is def not their best live performance, but thats cuz this video is old, it was just when they started out! but now, ami's voice is just incredible live!
i agree. The open door is INCREDIBLE, and i love it, and i love amy's voice ALWAYS, lithium esp., but it isn't the same as fallen. Fallen was something on its own. But Evanescence is just plain incredible :D
