  • Pretty nice, didn't know Evanescense had done this till now. Would have been better though if they'd really let the choir come through more at the latter parts of the song. Still cool though.

  • Wow. This is amazing. I love mozart..Evanescence is alright but damn, this is really ambitious of them. it turned out ok. I'm sure Mozart would just be glad his music is still being heard by younger people. lol

  • eres español? ^^ no hablo bien español, lo siento. me encanta mucho esta musica mientras me gusta también mozart ^^

  • toller zusammenschnitt und geiles lied!!

  • get over the fact that a rock band covered the song :S. big deal, its bringing classic music to a new generation, and i bet you people are in your senior years anyway.

  • I do like Symphonic and Gothic Metal, and both genres mix Classical with Metal, and Emilie Autumn, she mixed Classical and Electronica, but the fact that mainly bothers people about this song is that this version KILLED Lacrimosa

  • ¬¬

  • So glad Mozart's not alive to hear this crap.

  • Verga le dieron en toda la madre !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • no hables como aborigen ¬¬

    SUCIOO

  • Horrible... Lo más horrible que he escuchado en toda mi vida.

    Sehr sehr schlect...

    Mozart se ha de estar revolcando en su tumba...

  • dios... el vivo ejemplo de como mutilar una pieza de arte puro...

    encerio akabo d escuchar lo peor de estos tipos... si deporsi el follow away form me con KoRn se escucha askeroso... dios... Mozart perdonalos solo son idiotas que quieren dinero D:

  • Hermoso!!!

  • amo esta canción

  • they have just screwed up mozart's master piece

  • hahhah and the goths, emos and such will be like OMFG WTF DID U JUST SAY?!?! hahaha, prolly they think mozart stole it from them xD

  • lol i like both versions, Mozart was a genuine master at music. however evanescences remake as it were of this is good aswell, tho jus to clairify Mozart didnt write the whole of Lacrimosa :)

  • Desde mi punto de vista, Mozart esta muuuuuuuuuuuy fuera del alcance de Evanescence, no siento que sea un buen trabajo, si me gusta Evanescence pero no esto les quedo mal muy mal.

  • emmos???

  • this is a lack of respect i think they should get baned i hete this girl,what a f@c& was she thinking

  • people , just shut up and listen , its a cover , get over it - u can cop abuse for doing anything these days!! :@

  • Бред собачий.

  • I think we have to appreciate this song for what it is... I love mozart, and more specificly the "lacrimosa" but I think this song is not too bad...

  • The band is not capable to adapt mozarts requiem. Its really bad.

  • boo... im sorry. i like evanescence but i feel sorry for mozart. the music is nice and all... but i really don't think she should have rocked this classical...

    leave it latin at least.

  • I adroe this song, i think it's very well done.

    Yes it is a cover but people do covers all the time, what's so wrong with this one?

    They've used the song and made it popular in todays culture.

    I say very well done to them and i think mozart would be proud.

  • the lyrics mean the same thing, they just changed the words to make it more modern

  • Please rethink the original translated lyrics. Evanescences lyrics have nothing to do with the original song.

    Mournful that day,

    on which will rise from ashes

    guilty man to be judged

    Lord, have mercy on him

    Gentle Lord Jesus

    Grant them eternal rest. Amen

  • Like I said... "the lyrics mean the same thing, they just changed the words to make it more modern"

  • What is it with you people? Yes, Mozart's requiem is amazing just like the rest of his creations. I like some of Evanescence's songs including this one, and yes, I've heard and loved lacrimosa before I heard this cover. It's a COVER, they don't attempt to make it as good as the original thing. Apparently the lacrimosa lyrics and music fit whatever concept they have behind this song, no need to become so violent like some of the posts below. It's music - open your mind or don't bother with it.

  • completamente de acuerdo contigo

    chuckfrusciante20 tienes toda la razon xD

  • God some people just read what they want to read.

    1. I love Mozart's music

    2. I dont like this song because it can't compare at all to Mozart's requiem

    3. Do you need it more specific?

  • !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • poor mozart, if he knew he'd turn around in his grave, as we say here. i dont mind when people make "cover" versions of classical music, but in this case im really angry at her she dared to tough mozarts lacrimosa, i think this sounds awful.i hat no problem with evanescence what so ever, but now i've seen this i'll shoot amy lee in the head for desacrating "lacrimosa"

  • I guess I would have loved this song if I hadn't hear Mozart's requiem first... I love Evanescence, I love Amy Lee... but I kinda hate this song...

  • How can you say you hate Mozart when he is basically the forefather of music?

    How dare you! If you can't enjoy classical music, which is REAL music, then just don't listen to any at all.

    That's all I have to say.

    ~This song isn't original enough. They ruined one of Mozart's best masterpieces...Ever.

  • God some people just read what they want to read.

    1. I love Mozart's music

    2. I dont like this song because it can't compare at all to Mozart's requiem

    3. Classical music is the best music

    4. Amy lee is the best but she ruined this composition

    Do you need it more specific?

    Thats all i have to say

  • i think it's great that she took mozarts lacrimosa and made a rocksong out of it.

  • Lack of creativity.

  • amazing

  • I would have been fine with that song, except she dubbed the greatest song of all time. Nothing against her beautiful voice, it just takes away from what Lacrimosa was about. The song was not meant to be remade or finished. I really wish she just left Mozart's final piece out of it.

  • This song is something i can'tt describe

    Ilove Amy Lee shes amazingg.

  • i think what she did to this peice is fantasic some people just dont understant the beauty of music.....

  • better than the liveperformance on youtube, but it still sucks. alas ;)

  • i am a huge fan of classical music, i know evanescence okay too.

    i dont might what they did with the instrumentals here.

    what bothers me about ths song is what this cover is about.

    whinging about love, depression blah.

    mozarts lacrimosa was about weeping or opression,real issues over death.

    i have mixed feelings about this cover. It pisses me off they used a masterpiece like mozarts to portray some fucking typical whingy goth/emo song (not like all goth is whingey, but emo is)

  • namby pamby?thats not even a phrase shitbag.

    also life isnt always great we all get that but my commnt has nothin to do with your life so stfu, what i dont see the relivance 2 fuckin love&attention seekin lyf of emos,to a classical song composd by one of the greatest artists evr to exist about death?

    this is just another case of emogoths takin on somethn they THINK is dark&a perfect way 2 produce there"life is dark" message. what they dont understnd is the REAL message behnd the original.

  • *Coolcat sings * " OMG, I must be emo!"

    Take Mozart, pick a score, change the lyrics, cover it, play some metal over it, and what do you have? COMPLETE MUSICAL RAPE. Thank you.

  • 100% agreed!

  • as if you're providing much insight. now you're trying to categorize me as a conformist. I am a classical musician and I really despise people who steal works from previous artists. I hold Eric Carmen in just as much contempt on that matter (with All by Myself).

    A cover is in fact interpreting a piece, i agree with that. But they attribute the song to its original artist, not to themselves. In this case, Eva is not interpreting it but in fact rewriting it and attributing it to herself.

  • your really stupid.

    eva is not one person and her name is amy lee. Before you decide to go badmouthing a band or artist you might want to get the name right.

  • lol

    isnt much of a band though is it?

    i mean the whole concept around evanesence is her really (amy lee).

    none of the other orignal members are still there and im not saying its bad but it does revolve around her look and her lifestyle.

    and 'paolohudson' did get the name right "eva" being the abbrieviation of evanescene. and lets say this cover was a whole band creation it would still be entirely correct if he did say "evanescene" (even though amy lee runs the show)

  • sometimes it's not about stealing the other artists work but to pay a tribute; therion covered bands like ACCEPT, METALLICA, MANOWAR, LOUDNESS and efing ABBA for god's sake, take Garage inc by metallica for example, they are just paying tribute to bands they feel identified with, most metal artists are inspired by classic artists, are you saying that whoever covered a Beatle's song is a thief? (listen to TOOL's version of Led Zappelin's "no quearter") Evanesence is just doing what rappers do

  • you are right, a lot of people don't really know Mozart's work, they don't know Lacrimosa is an incomplete melody, however, my dad is an orchestra conductor and my mom plays viola, (i am good at halo2) so i do know a lil' bit a bout classical music, and yes, a lot of people has covered Mozart, Beethoven and Wagner, but we are talking about Therion and yngwie malmsteen not this disgrace

  • what's that supposed to mean "grow up"? what is it, you're 10 years above me make you superior and all knowing?

    since when is it right to steal someone's work in order to further your own career? It remains unoriginal and obtrusive. I don't give a damn how many other versions have been made! just because its original conception was a success doesn't mean it demands alternate versions.

    and who cares if some ppl didn't know it was mozart, doesn't change a damn thing. where's your B.Mus. genius?

  • How dare you! you piece of shit nightwish wannabe lame attemp of a band to taint such a master piece like lacrimosa?? i hope you get stomach cancer

  • berck !!!! garbage !!!

    putain mais mozart doit se retrouné dans sa tombe quelle igratte celle la !

  • For those of you who do not know. Even though the main theme of this song was obviously taken from Mozart's Requiem, Mozart was asked to write this song by another composer, who asked Mozart to write the piece secretly so that he could compose the piece and claim it as his own. Which he did, after Mozart died before Mozart himself could finish the entire Requiem. However, after Mozart died, and before the composer, who's name i can not recall, one of Mozart's top students finished the Requiem.

  • Count Walsegg.

  • garbage .. and this is an insult to the great Mozart and the goth culture with this little girl feeling dark..

  • i love evanescence

  • I have a lost a lot of respect for Evanescence for the simple fact that she intruded on a very personal ground for Mozart. I mean, he wrote this piece looking straight into the face of Death; this is his final goodbye. For her to use this is like pissing on his grave. Very unoriginal.

  • auto to kommati to akougame sto autokinhto, otan gurnagame...de mporw na se ksexasw!

  • i love it! i love the lyrics and i don't know what you guys mean by bad lyrics and bad voice why listen to evanescence if you just gonna diss her singing and the lyrics? i like the lyrics and amy lee has great tone and breath control.

  • pinche mugrero de mierda

  • the lyrics do not exacly suit, but anyway they sound as amazing as ever ^^

    looooove her voice

  • WTF, this lyrics sucks, is better in Latin, damn rockstars, they think that they can do all, but they just f*ck music up. Has anyone tell her that her voice dosen't fit with this grat master piece? damn crap I'm about to cry for this kind of crap.

  • I like that they tried to make the song a good overlay, but with Amy Lee's mediocre voice, and the bad lyrics, it's really not that great.

    Even Jade from Sweetbox's version was better than this (and I don't even like rap).

  • i agree with velotrol1 and frankiec3e. Its just a song. There is nothing wrong with it. its just different. Some people like this kinda thing, some don't. I personally like it. So patale4 i don't think they dystroyed it. They just showed (as velotrol1 said) a different exspression of art.

  • richtig geiles video

  • How yan you destroy such a glorious composition by mixin' in some dumbass booring beats and some very bad bad vocals that's a shame. Evanescence showed us their disgusting ignorance.

  • How is sampling something destroying it? Lacrimosa exists without Evanescence...they merely laid some beats and vocals over it because they felt it added to their existence.

  • *added to their expression.

  • FRANKIEC3E You are God damn right brother,all those haters n' critics wannabes out there please if U don't like it don't listen 2 it,any expression of art is valid n' should be respected everyone has it's own way of understanding,feeling n' expressing yourself this is a classic n' in 100 years when we won't be here no more people will still be making versions of it n' you out there what you gonna do raise from your grave to criticise?

    PLEASE people be more open mind!!!

  • every1 needs 2 get ova it--- its a fcukin song.. if u dont like it dont listen 2 it-- end of that... nd every fckin song is redone or copied nd modified so ppl need 2 drop the attitude that it's only this band-- you all sound retarded... ppl like the songs they like 4 a reason.. nd lyke i sed u dont lyke it turn it off.. end of that..

  • I stopped listening the moment i heard the word "baby". They took the music which is considered to be one of the most perfect pieces of music ever written, and RUINED it. Music of that king should not be touched.

  • +1

    completly agree.

  • i definetly do as well +10:-)

  • OMG!!! IMHO, she ruined Mozart's music. Although Mozart would probably be happy with this, cause his work is being appreciated, he wouldn't like it. You see, when he did Lacrimosa, he mentioned to say something, express certain feelings. In her version, she just took the meaning of the song out of it and put something else. She's just using Lacrimosa' shell. =\

  • i agree.I took a minute to look at the lyrics and I have to say this girl is a wannabe in all aspects. She cant even write a decent song.

  • Now hold on a second! I don't think it's fair to say this is a bad song just because not all of it is hers. I think that, as good as the original is, there's nothing wrong with this version. I mean, it's not as if classical's going to get popular on its own, is it?

  • her lyrics suck.

  • I've no problem usually with people using other peoples songs as samples. But the problem here is that as a song the goodness so to speak is 99.9999% from the genius of mozart. When I saw this I thought maybe evanescence had written her own Lacrimosa, maybe even her own entire requiem. It's an interesting idea its just that evanescence(who I have a lot of time for incidentally) has comparatively no talent when put next to mozart, vulgar little shit though he was. Just my opinion.

  • I almost agreed with you....until the vulgar little shit part. Amadeus wasn't a real rendition of his life, you know. He had his quirks, but it was never shown in public. Anyways, I dont mind that Evanescence used this song. It's obviously in appreciation to the greatest composer of all time. My issue is with the milk commercial that totally desecrated Beethoven's 9th. Anyways, Mozart owned. lol

  • Point taken, good film though. And I agree with you that there's no problem really with her sampling the piece. But how can I put this. On a sliding scale of comparative genius this is like me taking Stairway to Heaven, cutting it in half, swapping the two halves around and claiming it as my own original work. If you catch my drift. I do bow to your superior knowledge of Mozart though. Peace and McLove XD

  • Original is always original....

  • it's a beautiful song.

  • i can not believe this, why? the same voice of god ruined with this fake gothic, and her voice can not compare with the genius of the song,

  • I like this one better than the Sweetbox one. Ive heard it 5x in a row already.

  • AAHHHH.... I wonder what mozart would think of this... i know..... if he were still alive he would want probably want to take his own life.

  • No I think he would appeciate because his work is being appreciated. It already means a lot that Amy Lee and the band members had the intention to use Lacrimosa and been inspired by it. You don't have to think that it's fucked. No way..!! It's her own vision but what really matters is that she loves doing it because it is fucking Lacrimosa and believe me it means a lot to Amy Lee for sure and she probably had the goosebumps writing this song and respects its origin.

  • agreed =)

  • el video no me gusto mucho no es muy original

  • i agree it's shitty. Almost totally off the original lacrimosa. Sweetbox's is much better :D

    SO MUCH BETTER.

  • I Love this song (B3b5 I N712)

  • BEST SONG EVER!!!

  • BEST SONG EVER!!!

  • I advice everyone to listen Sweetbox's Lacrimosa ,I think Sweetbox' is better much more !

  • Terrible! Das Meisterwerk verstümmelt.

  • wtf? make your own music, don't ruin a masterpiece

  • Whoa!!! It's the masterpiece that makes this piece work. You really can't mess up Mozart.

  • sweetbox's lacrimosa is much better..

  • luvin it

  • very shitty

  • no kagar  a lo grandes compositores de la historia por favor!!
