  • Just at the beginning is where she sounds like Amy. But once you get to the chorus, that's where it doesn't sound like her.

  • haha she sounds nothing like amy lee. Probably isn't a self centered bitch like amy lee either. Which would be a good thing.

  • Also look at bands like Elysion! If that was case you'd critise them for being like Evanesence. This genre has existed for a while and yes Evanesence may have brought it to height but other bands have the right to play in that style 2. Stop being so immature one minded and listen to a genre we all obviously love. Even though Amy Lee is amazing!

  • I don't get why everyone is comparing them to Evanescence. There are tons of bands like this! Evanescence and we are fallen both are awsome :)

  • I think that We Are The Fallen and Evanescence should feature each other.

    :I

  • it's CoOoOoOoL

  • i admit i like this song :P

    but the beginning sounds like the song bleed by evanescence...

    but who cares, right? it still sounds amazing i wished the label didn't drop them

    just love the lyrics just wished all three (amy, ben, and david hodges) were all there they write amazing songs together

  • amy lost out, after a good run and these people have pulled together and have made for some outstanding music!!!!!!!!!! shit happens !

  • You can listen and read the lyrics of this song on my account. :D

  • ''We cannot try to be who we are''

  • Best!

  • Love it!

  • In reality We Are The Fallen ARE Evanescence, but without AMY, this is reason why the sound is like Fallen! Carly isb't AMY, they're different, the music style and all!

  • This song didnt get very big did it?

  • @awesomechick2618 maybe cause it wasn't in any big movies :/

  • great song! she has a beautiful voice

  • Evreyone shut up and stop your bitching and litsen to the damn music kay

  • I used to really like Carly when she was on American Idol. And as much as I hated it when she got voted off, I'm glad she did. I'm so much happier that she has this successful band instead of becoming some solo artist from shit Idol. This suits her so much better. I don't think she's like Amy Lee at all nor is she trying to copy Amy. Both are unique in their own ways and if there's a similarity between the two, so what? There are TONS of bands out there that are similar to one another.

  • I think Carly sounds much more like Anette Olzon than Amy Lee :)

  • @Nutarei not really. lol anette sounds like an 80's hair band chick singer. :)

  • love it ....more :)

  • \m/...

  • There's only /one/ Amy Lee, and Ben Moody just hates that he made the wrong choice and /left/ her. She is so perfect with her voice, and Ben is trying to dictate that by making Carly sound like Amy. I strongly dislike him for many reasons, but I mainly dislike him for this: Evanescence was originally We Are the Fallen, and when Ben left, he took the original name and dragged more people into it--including this female. He lacks creativity, and originality.

  • It's not Carly trying to copy Amy, it's Ben Moody.

  • This doesn't sound anything like Evanescence. I don't know why people are comparing them to it. If anything, they kind of sound like a mixture between Nightwish and Within Temptation with a little bit of Lacuna Coil. Which are all awesome bands!!! I love Within Temptation, Lacuna Coil, Nightwish, Evanescence, and We Are The Fallen. They are all different and unique in there own ways.

  • \:d/

  • this remains me of my mom a lot :/

  • thumbs up if u think tht this band could be the LESS EMO evanescence

  • @IPheonix666 lol have you heard their album? less emo my ass, ahaha

  • my chills have chills

  • no carly doesn't sound like amy that much. think it's the genre that's making this band sounding so much like their old band. but why give a crap? it sounds amazing to me

  • The only think that I say is that if Amy Lee was singing this song I think it would be 1000 better. HEH that's my opinion

  • @DimaKats2 I think everyone would like to see original evanesence back together again. But I have no complaints against carly.

  • Anybody else figure out yet that Ben wrote this song about Amy? And that the reason that this sounds like Evanescence is that Ben was behind at least half of Evanescence's sound? This music is Ben being Ben, not some chick trying to copy off of Amy Lee

  • Comment removed

  • Beautiful song..has meaning..^^

    I also think that she doesn't sound like Amy..she is absolutely different..at some way the only similarity with Evanescence is that they have the same kind of songs..that's all..

  • Why the fuck some guys hate on this ?

    You should better be happy that this is similar to evanescence than hate on this cause it's similar... do you never tried to find a band similar to one of your favorite band ?

  • Most of the members of We Are the Fallen are ex-Evanescence members and the ex-members were founders of the Genre of music Evanescence made so yes there is going to be striking resemblances in music and besides almost any song has similar rhythms to an older song. No song is 100% original that's just music fact so all songs are related rhythmically in a sense if you break it down into individual notes and rhythms.

  • Good music ;3

  • awsome song

    

  • People say this is the way Evanescence was supposed to sound instead of The Open Door.

    Let me ask you a question: Evanescence started out as a great goth-like hardrock band.....would you rather have an Evanescence album with lyrics the band and fans can actually relate to or do you prefer them making Paramore-like songs with no deeper meaning at all?

    Okay, TOD wasn't the best album, and the next album won't be the same as Origin or Fallen, but it sure as hell won't be like this piece of shit

  • HATERS GON HATE

  • haha everyones retarded. stop bitching at people for saying she sounds like amy lee. we all get it. no one clicked on this song to have a fight threw the comments, just listen to the damn song.

  • This band deserves to be ripped apart,suppose Kieth Richards decided to quit the Stones Then hired Ron Woods and Charlie Watts to form a new band calling themselves"Satisfaction" then hired Steven Tyler to sing old Stones songs plus wrote similar music,..it wouldn't be acceptable, either is this.The Fallen asked for what they got, due to moody's lack of imagination.

  • FALLEN IS THE BEST DISC ON EVANES...AMY ARE DEATH

  • i don't give a fuck what people are saying its just a fucking band and who are you to judge them amy lee left she isn't coming back carly isn't leaving anytime now so shut the fuck up listen to the god damn song and if its still a rip off THEN WHY THE FLYING FUCK ARE YOU LISTENING TO IT

  • Who cares is this band sounds like Evanescence? Just enjoy the damn song.

  • Can't everyone stop fighting and listen to the song? It doesn't matter at all. If you don't like the band then don't listen to them. Simple as that. Grow up and stop behaving like two year olds.

  • STOP COMPARING HER TO AMY YOU STUPID FUCKTARDS.

    im a big fan of evanescence but i dont think that Carly is trying to imitate Amy.

    Its not her fault that her voice is similar to Amy.

    her voice is just similar and its unique..

    so just enjoy the music and stop being so lifeless.

  • @Myimm0rtaL18 I agree with you they may sound similar but they are two different woman who just wants to make music the best music they can put out.Just do what they love right. Music is music anyone can do it the way they want to do it.Again I'm with you stop comparing the two shut the fuck up and enjoy the music and if you don't like either one don't listen to it.Personally I love both.

  • @Myimm0rtaL18 It is not only the voice but the hair, the clothes... The fact that there are 3 ex-members of Evanescence in the band is not helping neither... Nevertheless, I must say that the songs are quite good ! :)

  • @Myimm0rtaL18 amen

  • @Myimm0rtaL18 her voice is similar to amy?????? when she was on idol her voice NEEEVER reminded me of amy, NEVER

  • @Myimm0rtaL18 look at her old videos, her natural voice is different.. (her real voice) shes just tryin to be amy.... she has most of her band... still not as talented... she should just b herself... u can tell shes trying to sound like her...

  • Its amazing to think this singer was from American Idol (I think a third or 4th runner up)

  • as much as you people say it isn't, it sounds exactly like Amy lee.

  • I don't see how there could be a problem with this band being similar to Evanescence, they are called "We Are The Fallen" because of Evanescence's debut album, and because three of the members are former Evanescence members who feel as if they've been shafted by Amy Lee. Whose fault is was does not matter, they helped create the sound of Evanescence so they have as much right to perform music that way as Evanescence does. How can you rip off what you helped create?

  • the comparisons are old, tiring, boring, and now silly. Carly has had this voice for as long as I can remember. You might as well say she is a "brunette wannabe." While everyone else bitches, plays General Hospital, and pretends they work for Rolling Stone, I will enjoy the fact that I now have two bands who create the kind of music I really enjoy

  • I regard Evanesence and We Are The Fallen as everybody else everyone has a unique sound in some way so just shut up and enjoy the song or go on to another song and shut up.

  • Hey here is a new idea

    THEY AREN"T EVANESCENSE

    so don't compare them to each other. problem solved

  • @darthsasuke554 damn straight, totally different project. people are too ignorant to understand that.

  • I really like this band, i really like the influence of the guitar player whose name i can't recall right now, but since he left evanescense the band change in a way which i didn't relally like that much, this was the sound they had with him and this is the sound of this new band. I'll follow this band it is great. And yeah Amy lee is cool too i just dont like how they make things now xD

  • @aknightofgod ben moody and john le comp i think

  • Evanescence!!!

  • I'm nobody to compare two artists, but I gotta say i love them all.

    Almost every video has an argument nowadays, same old same old.

  • Wow, she sounds like amy lee somewhat. I like them both. Whatever happened to amy lee anyways?

  • @xPINKxRIBBONxSCARSx

    she replaced the evanescence members who moved to WATF (four of the original five, i believe) and is now working on a new album that was set to come out fall/winter 2010 but got pushed. =] she didn't like, die or anything, even though we haven't heard news in forever.

  • @xPINKxRIBBONxSCARSx amy lee still around sadly for her. the label evanescence is on got issues and delays their next album

  • @nyboss2k7 oh, u mean the album thats never coming out? lol just like blink 182's new supposed album lol. don't worry its just another GT5 and will eventually get here.

  • I don't hate Carly shes an amazing singer and really pretty. Stop bashing on her. If any of you had an opportunity that she has gotten, wouldn't you take it. Just because Amy kicked someone out, or they just quit and made a new bad doesn't mean they are a copy, and if you hate this, you might as well hate evanescence. So what if she did a cover for Evanescence, some other people have and that doesn't make them a copy. But don't tell me if you had an opportunity like Carly you wouldn't take it.

  • why cant you people just enjoy a great song.. i dont give a crap who left , who was fired, and who screwed the pooch this girl has an amazing voice and the song freaking rocks

  • oh my fucking god shut up about amy lee she fucking left ok get over it ok and stop comparing them to evanescence god there just a band get over it its not like she is trying to become the next amy lee CAUSE WE ALL KNOW SHE CAN'T DO THAT but really stop comparing her to amy lee and evanescence sheesh

  • @beanybop100 I think you're confused,.... Amy Lee didn't leave anything. She is the Leader and Frontperson for Evanescence.

    Moody left Lacompt was Fired and Grey Quit before he was fired. They formed this other lil geeky band to ripp off Evanescence,..and Hired a game show loser with her head up Moodys ass.

  • i would like this band if i cood stop comparing the lead singer to amy lee

    but i cant so.......

  • Evanescence is Wonderful, the only other rock band that can compete is Lacuna Coil

  • this band r frikin posers! betcha they cldnt frikin com up wit they're own style of nutin so they copied the best band.thats not ryte!

  • this is an awesome song<3

  • this band wouldve been better if the ex-evanescence stayed out then there wouldnt be as much war, lik ei think they knew this.. its all and rivaly im pro-evanescence cause shes my idol , and i want to do this profession myself and this is my main music genre , new bands need to have new members the act they replaced the leader singer and the band name doesnt make it less copying god...

  • with ben moody watf in the future may be better than evanescence.

  • And everybody's got to breathe somehow

  • I think Evanescence is a much better band, HOWEVER, I don't hate on We Are the Fallen. This is a very good song, and there's no denying that it's very similar to some of the songs from Evanescence's first album; it's the same formula, and I think that's why I like it so much! But as I said, I will always be a die hard Evanescence fan. I don't believe Carly is trying to be Amy Lee. I really don't. As someone said, this was her dream. Of course she took up the opportunity. Anyway. Love this song!

  • @PianoGirl091 I completely agree with you :) I am a fan of both bands and I feel that this is a nice band to listen to while waiting for new Evanescence material

  • @PianoGirl091 Well sure since the guy that wrote half of Evanescence's music is in this band. Personally i liked Even's original album more because of his influence to the lyrics and music. I have ended up liking these guys more!

  • @PianoGirl091 shut the fuck up

  • @lxreaper ...No.

  • @PianoGirl091 i didn't read your entire comment..just found it pointless to do so. it's annoying when people tend to compare bands. and i truly don't know why you and other people compare this one to Evanescence. so, out of annoying i simply told you to stfu. but your comment was from 4 months ago so yeah..sorry about that

  • @PianoGirl091 i think amy lee..and the lead singer..sound alike!

  • Both Amy Lee and Carly Smithson are great vocalists, and I love both bands equally. Ben Moody co-wrote a lot of the songs for Evanescence, and I assume he's doing the same with We Are The Fallen, so it's only natural for them to sound similar. I, however, have heard Smithson perform old Evanescence songs and I just don't think they're a good fit for her voice. The songs that she is doing now, the ones that are her own - are perfect.

  • no way Evanescence is good betar

  • STOP BASHING ON CARLY

  • I am so sick of addressing this god damn issue. Look Amy Lee of evanescence is her own band. Carly Smithsion is in We are the fallen. Yea they may be similar in ways. The same look the same style, but there voices may be the same. Amy lee even said it herself we are to different bands. Yea Ben Moody left but its in the past. I love both bands. But I have been a Evanescence fan since i was like lil so. Yea stop it guys get oever it dammit its fuckin stupid

  • lmao i spent some time lookin for this song on YT.. my only mistake was that i was looking for a song from evanescense xD

  • nearly EVERY comment is about evanescence! STFU ALREADY! i love this song, and carly's dress is gorgeous in this picture xD

  • wow i wasnt paying attention and thought this was evanescence........ Carly isa great singer........... but I prefer Lee, I grew up with her and Evanescence........ but yea very similar sound............

  • Comment removed

  • @highlinesandskyrises Ummm Hello. No one kicked Lee out of anything. Amy is the front person to the group EVANESCENCE, Moody quit,Lee fired LeCompt so Grey quit before Lee could fire him.

    So you're kind of an uninformed idiot.

  • @Illuminati10101 Thank you

  • ummm, tienen una semejanza con evanescence, pero no por eso se les kita merito a esta banda, son buenosss,,,y la voz es perfectaa,

  • Cool!

    

  • Vampire Diaries :}

  • I First Heard This On A Trailer For The Vampire Diaries And I Was Like Wow! I Love This Song! :) xx♡

  • @xTeamxxSalvatorex Me too! That's how I first came to discover this band, actually.

  • vocals aside, i really prefer We Are The Fallen's musics rather than Evanescence's. i remember i bought ev's 1st album hoping that the album would sound like their first single "bring me to life" and i was disappointed. its really just musical preference, so ev fans dont get mad or anything, but i think WATF's sound is what i've been hoping evanescence to sound like in the first place, so if u give me WATF's musics with amy lee's vocals, then its PERFECT.

  • @narutopspgeek Ont the topic of WATF's sound with Amy's vocals.... I agree!!

    Especially since I heard that Ev is going in a synth pop direction with their newest album.. I really hope people are wrong.. You, my friend, have got the right idea. I wish to congratulate you on your great mind!

  • i think it's so sad that they broke up. it seems that moody and amy had some "creative differences" as she says, which i can understand is hard to deal with ,but i miss ev, but i can still understand why moody left, it's hard to work with people that disagree with you all the time (not emotionally, creativity and music like)

  • wow... the attempt to try and sound like EV is disgusting... Amy Lee's voice is one of a kind and you can't remake what EV has done.. nice try Mr. Moody! EV Rules... this band.. not so much

  • XD my cousin was just like oommmggg plz dont listen to that stupid evanescence they are so stupid and whatever and i was like how could you not like them they are the best band everrr XD XD she just doesent understand good music

    POP IS TALENTLESS ROCK MAY NOT BE POPULAR BUT AT LEAST THERES TALENT IN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    i just wanted to say that XDDD

  • Carly Smithson or whatever her name is is OKAYY but Amy Lee is unbeatable she her voice is so beautiful <3

  • wow, her voice is AMAZING. it almost just lulled me to sleep, and I physically can't take naps. Damn insomnia lol.

  • can't keep a talented writer down, go Ben!

  • Yes she sounds like Amy, don't delude yourselves. Is this bad? Hell no. The band picked her up after watching her cover of Bring me to life, so its only par for the course. WATF is Ben Moody's slap to Amy for kicking him out, which I didn't like to begin with, but he knows what sounds good. So while Eva is still doing ballads like its a christmas special, WATF sounds like old Eva which is stellar, and wanted.

  • SUCKKKKKS!

  • @ShaeBug123 Why can't everyone be like you?

    It's getting rather tiring hearing people constantly comparing Carly to Amy.

    They ARE different people with different voices.

  • I saw them Live with HIM. She really can sing really good.

  • POSERS!!!! There is ONE Amy Lee and ONE Evanescence!!!

  • she has an awesome voice. I wish i could hit notes like that

  • wth is with all the 'replacing' nonsense..

    lol jeez

    shut up about amy , this is WE ARE THE FALLEN.

  • fuck haters, this girl really can fuckin sing, if you don't like it then dont even bother to listen to them... if you think this girl is trying to sound like Amy, FUCK YOU!

  • this girl sounds good but Amy Lee's amazing voice can never be compared or beaten. Her voice is just too perfect

  • Rip off of Evanescence, with a bit of sound/hook stealing from Lacuna Coil. She is definitely NOT Amy or Cristina, for that matter.

  • Holy crap, why can't everyone just enjoy both bands!!?? Have you ever thought that the bands MIGHT JUST sound the same, considering WATF is made up of the same freaking people as Ev was?? Quit bashing WATF....if you don't like it, don't listen!

  • @scarlettrose2010 honestly I think its the band members that people have a problem with

  • hmm....this has to be the only song that I like form them...

  • si que se parece si, pero como dice Moody, este es su estilo!

    me alegro tener mas buena musica que escuchar!

    Adelante WATF! mucha suerte

    y lo dice una gran fan de Amy !

  • she is trying to sound like amy, I love this song but I feel is sung by someone who wanna be amy lee

  • Don't know what happened between Amy Lee and the band, but John LeCompt is fucking awesome, and Carly sings like and Angel!!

  • Actually, their style of music has some differences from Evanescence's style :) it is not the same. Think what you're saying. They are doing great, but I don't reckon that We Are The Fallen will be as big as Evanescence :) Just let them do their job and stop this childish argues.

  • @HaTe616 YER DUMB. EVERYONE KNOWS THIS BAND SOUNDS LIKE THE EARLY EVANESCENCE SO JUST STOP LYING. YER DUMB. HOW ABOUT "YOU" THINK "WHAT YOU'RE SAYING". STOP THIS CHILDISH COMMENTS. ALRIGHT LET GOD SHOW YOU THE WAY.

  • I wish Amy Lee sang that.

  • What I don't like about the band is Carly. I hate her voice and I hate the way sh tries to copy Amy without being the least bit ashamed.

  • Said it once but ... They're a great band with a distinctive sound and style separate from what came before. There may be similarities but that is to be expected as any well crafted musician will attain a certain individual style over time. It's everyone’s right to voice their own opinion but do you not think your efforts would be better spent bigging up your personal favourites on their own pages rather than putting your efforts into trying to diminish musicians who deserve to be here!!!

  • we are the fallen=evanescence but i love both bands

  • @shadowbodypk totally agree :D

  • Comment removed

  • check out high council - bury them alive

  • This album is EPIC fail and further demonstrates how when band members try to break away from the main draw of a band (Amy Lee) they more often than not fail.

    The WATF album barely sold over 20,000 copies, not only is that not Gold,..it`s not even Brass or Tin,...maybe TINFOIL. Tin Foil=`s 20,000 copies sold lol.

    Clearly the label they were under will not be supporting another money losing endeavor from WATF.

  • please read and post anywhere you think itll reach more evanescence fans/ watf haters - a personal message concerning the ev vs watf topic:

    evboard.com/a-message-from-ben­-moody-40377.html

  • where can i download this??

  • Her voice is preety good though there is no term of comparison between Amy Lee's voice and her voice...

    But still, this song it's nice. ;D

  • the song is awesome but the lead singer's voice isn't the most adequate one for this kind of song.

    and they're not copying Evanescence. they were a part of Evanescence hence the similarity. (Too bad they've left :/ but Amy Lee is amazing and Evanescence's still living and being awesome ^^)

    lol imagine Amy Lee singing this song instead of the other singer.. it sounds cool

  • so, the first thing the former members of Evanescense do is form a new band with a new lead singer, and they still sound exactly like Evanescence. They proved to everyone they're able to change sounds!

  • why did they REPLACE AMY!?!

  • @crazyanimelovers2 the dont replace amy, they was members of evanescence,

  • @crazyanimelovers2 BECAUSE THEY'RE IDIOTS

  • Well I have listened to some more songs of this band. And I must say it is now my third favourite band. (Right behind Within Temptation and Rammstein.)

  • this girl is good, but nothing can replace amy, theres something about her that is so angelic and soothing.

  • Comment removed

  • Carly is Amy Lee 2.0

  • @pseudovan there wil never be any1 as good as amy lee so get over it !!!!

    !!!!!

  • See I feel like at the beginning if they had made it just like the chorus they wouldn't need to deal with being compared to Evanescence. I do love this song though

  • Amy lee??? OMG YOU RELEASED A NEW SONG....OH WAIT =/

  • no way, ben and amy should be togethere :P

  • All of you say she sounds like Amy... I feel like they're similar but kinda different, Amy's is softer but more powerfull here's is kina pitchy...A nice pitchy. I mean...I'm not dissing anyone, but if you hate them you should not post hate messages I find them very stupid... I mean...I like both, but I prefer Amy but fighting won't get us anywhere and this IS just music. Thank you for your time .

  • @Stopons carlys voice is amazing..and shes not trying to copy amy lee. she doesn't have to cause she's the shit

  • @sogone019 CARLY SHITSON SOUNDS LIKE A FUCKING MAN AND SHE'S OBVIOUSLY TRYING TO PUT A MOTHERFUCKING GOTHIC ROCKER DARK IMAGE. SHE HAS TO DO THAT BECAUSE SHE IS *SHIT* AND WITHOUT BEN MOODY SHE'S NOTHING!
