The real Amy Lee was discovered by Joe Elliott of Def Leppard in '83 at age 15. The singer takes her stagename for the songwriter who named the band & for Amy Lynn Carter, daughter of Pres. Jimmy Carter. Kurt Cobain was on tour with DL in '83. His friend Kathleen Hanna named her band Amy Carter. Singers mother's name for Sara Lee Bakery & father for John Mutt Lange who produced Pyromania. I know the real story, not the scripted version or what Hollywood wants you to believe.
@XXxtreehuggerx The lead singer and face of Evanescence who uses my name as her stagename claims to have been born in 1981. I was 15 in 1983 and wrote the songs for Evanescence and named what I thought would be my future band in '83. But, due to a falling out with Joe Elliott of Def Leppard and Mutt Lange would not let this happen.
@XXxtreehuggerx I'm not a bro. What do you not understand? One of the first songs I wrote for Evanescence as a teen is Sweet Sacrifice after Joe Elliott of Def Leppard & I had been working on Pour Some Sugar On Me. I came up with the line "Step inside, WALK THIS WAY" using Walk This Way from Aerosmith's Toys In The Attic album. On the same album is Sweet Emotion hence the idea to write Sweet Sacrifice with Toys in the Attic being a euphemism for insanity inspiring "we're all a little insane"
@Boddahism I didn't say the lyrics for Sweet Sacrifice. The song is Pour Some Sugar On Me. This was the first song I co-wrote with Joe Elliott of Def Leppard in 1983. Sweet Sacrifice followed and was inspired by writing Pour Some Sugar On Me.
@drums22gdrkelly I agree. I do love the new stuff a lot but I miss how they we're dark, and like you said haunting, now their a bit heavier. Oh well, Amy's matured and so has the music. Hey, atleast we can still listen to the old stuff :D
@WittleKittyCat I probably won't D: I don't have much money anyways, so I'd rather buy something that I like. I have concert tickets too, and I don't know if I should go now D:

Part of the chorus sounds similar to Lithium. Not that it's a bad thing....

I'm not sure I like the new Evanescence, its more generic, not haunting. But, its my opinion. Every song sounds the same to me D:
