Few people seem to talk about the guitar solo yet it is the most viewed part of the song. It was a perfect combination of creepy and sad. But most of all, it invokes a feeling like you're longing for someone.
I can relate to this song. I lost my boyfriend 8 years ago and I still mourn for him. It was a devistating, tragic death. I will always love you Damien. R.I.P !989-2003.

This song... this is what true love is. It goes on forever, brings us to break our morals sometimes, and gives us the strength to do anything. Love is beautiful, but true love is blindingly amazing.
I interpreted the song as something else completely! Their loved one has died, and they've gone insane to the point that they think they can hear person's voice and see them in the darkness, and all those around them talk about how they've totally lost it. Eventually, they also die (or kill themself, which I imagine what happens during the musical interlude) but feel content in doing so because they believe they'll join their loved one in death...
Such elegance Evanescence put towards their music. They're songs about love is true, everlasting, so much devotion.. it's all just so memorizing and beautiful. Finally a band that lets out real emotion. I love Evanescence, always.
This entire song culminates to a solo which is oddly hard to hear, but makes you really dial in. It's a giant buildup to what, on paper, is quite melodic and tame, but the effect it has turns out to be incredibly gut wrenching. It takes you on a journey through the deafening screams of a wallowing soul, and while it plays all the notes you want to hear at the end in order to resolve, it still doesn't FEEL resolved. And the way it sounds like he's about to go off onto a whole other part, but plays a couple notes and is immediately cut off by Amy's voice again is just... It's an underrated song but moreso even those who do appreciate it seem to pay no mind to the fact that the whole song gravitates around this mass of a solo. And you can't just skip back to the beginning and listen to the solo again to try and re-live the power; it only works if you listen to the whole song leading up to it. Forever and always my favorite Evanescence song, tied with Your Star and Snow White Queen.
It's because of commentators like you that we get to notice and appreciate the nuances of masterpieces such as this one which you've described so beautifully. The part where you talked about the instrumental being cut off my Amy's voice.. Never noticed it ❤️ love the song even more Thank you.
This song is the perfect picture of the delusional madness that one-sided love brings. To me, it isn't about loving someone who has passed away, it is about the unrelenting feelings towards someone who will never reciprocate that love. They are the source of your madness, the obsession of your entire existence... At least, that's how I feel.
Honestly, I agree. The instrumental, particularly, makes it sound like it's from the point of view of an obsessed person. The fact that the beginning of it is used in Snow White Queen further cements my belief.
The awesome thing about Amy Lee's music is that it's more focused on emotion than the actual story. Even the songs that are written about a particular person or situation are so emotionally resonant that people can relate to those emotions through their own experiences.
Valeria Castañeda It was many and many a year ago, In a kingdom by the sea, That a maiden there lived whom you may know By the name of Annabel Lee; And this maiden she lived with no other thought Than to love and be loved by me. I was a child and she was a child, In this kingdom by the sea, But we loved with a love that was more than love- I and my Annabel Lee- With a love that the wingèd seraphs of Heaven Coveted her and me. And this was the reason that, long ago, In this kingdom by the sea, A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling My beautiful Annabel Lee; So that her highborn kinsmen came And bore her away from me, To shut her up in a sepulchre In this kingdom by the sea. The angels, not half so happy in Heaven, Went envying her and me- Yes!-that was the reason (as all men know, In this kingdom by the sea) That the wind came out of the cloud by night, Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee. But our love it was stronger by far than the love Of those who were older than we- Of many far wiser than we- And neither the angels in Heaven above Nor the demons down under the sea Can ever dissever my soul from the soul Of the beautiful Annabel Lee; For the moon never beams, without bringing me dreams Of the beautiful Annabel Lee; And the stars never rise, but I feel the bright eyes Of the beautiful Annabel Lee; And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side Of my darling-my darling-my life and my bride, In her sepulchre there by the sea- In her tomb by the sounding sea.
This song makes me have to hold back tears, (something very few songs have acheived), the combination of heartbreaking lyrics and powerful sorrow in her voice is truly amazing...
My boyfriend died early this morning and I'm struggling, but I know "even in death, our love will go on." But, Nathan, I miss you like crazy. I'll never forget you and I love you.
I don't even cry to non still my favorite song I do anything but cry endless people say I sound like a boy while singing Amy Lee then I feel something and brought down I remember when a little girl on the bus did that but I grew up and improved and I can careless about trash even if a good handful of it is on every corner ever block but I'm different and proud to be different with a name like Analisa and talent like mine the ability to astral project and lucid dream go time travel out this harsh reality a cool personality my birthday being august 1st the fallen album released in 2003 when I was born I love me
This song reminds me of my grandparents and their love. My grandfather passed away 2 years ago and I believe he still watches over her . When I hear this I imagine my grandma singing this to him.
This reminds me of years ago when I was about 6 or 7 and I would play Free Realms. and just listen to Evanescence while I play. And this song got stuck in my head.
My grandma just passed away, and my grandpa's still living. But they were married 62 years...and this song reminds me of their love. It was truly inspirational.
Gente essa música é linda... Sempre escorrem lágrimas em meus olhos qnd ouço ela!! Evanescence consegue superar qualquer banda de rock, Amy Lee com essa voz de anjo me mata tbm, n sério! Amo de coração.
@LuthienofOssiriand THANK YOU!!!! A comment that finally says that ther is NO WAY that it could be about Bonnie!!!!!!! True Evanescence fans would know that she doesn't sing songs about Bonnie live because she ends up crying!
such a sad but still amazing song... it reminds me of my uncle... we used to do everything together, he taught me how to swim,how to ride a bike... we would talk on the phone every day... until 8 months ago... but even in death, we're still together, nothing can keep us apart! 'cause people die, but real love is forever... we're always together! i love you uncle...

Yes, when In real love, we can do everything but when one surrender easy, just show he don't love. For real lovers only

Well said! 100% on point
This is what is called an universal music, that can fit in any context you asociate it, so all the feelings are valid 😌👌💖
Good comment
Oh, this is amazing. That screeching sound that opens up the song is sick. This = one of their best songs.
I love the music in the regular version but love the power in Amy's voice for the acoustic
A little late, but I agree. Both versions are good, but Amy's voice had more power in the new one.
But this song is the originall. So dark and goth
Hey, you're pretty
This song reminds me of Edgar Allan Poe's poem Annabel Lee
Valeria Castañeda
It was many and many a year ago
in a kingdom by the sea
That's all I remember
Valeria Castañeda my favorite poem by him
Valeria Castañeda
It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.
I was a child and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea,
But we loved with a love that was more than love-
I and my Annabel Lee-
With a love that the wingèd seraphs of Heaven
Coveted her and me.
And this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lee;
So that her highborn kinsmen came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre
In this kingdom by the sea.
The angels, not half so happy in Heaven,
Went envying her and me-
Yes!-that was the reason (as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of the cloud by night,
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.
But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we-
Of many far wiser than we-
And neither the angels in Heaven above
Nor the demons down under the sea
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
For the moon never beams, without bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And the stars never rise, but I feel the bright eyes
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling-my darling-my life and my bride,
In her sepulchre there by the sea-
In her tomb by the sounding sea.
great song ...sad and creepy
anyone here in 2020? love this song!!!

Amy lee is one of the most beautiful girls on earth.
Women*
She ain't no girl
Agree
Especially when she's singing.
I'm deeply in love with her
This version > new version
Sure
Just came on RUclips for this exact reason 😂😂 new version just don’t hit the same
This
This version instrumental >>>>>
2016 version Amy's vocals >>>>>>
OMFG SO TRUE. I mean, they have the same lyrics and yet this one has so much more power.
This song was used in Red Lake school shooter Jeff Weise's Newgrounds video "Clown." Under the name Regret.
It will always remind me of my grandma, when she passed away, I couldn't get this song outta my mind. :'(
RIP !
This song makes me have to hold back tears, (something very few songs have acheived), the combination of heartbreaking lyrics and powerful sorrow in her voice is truly amazing...
Been with my baby for over 6 years now and I know if anything were to happen to us we'd always find our way back together! We're inseperable. 🖤
"I will stay forever here with you, my love..." :(
I will stAy forever here with you

Sonhei cantando essa musica e me deu uma nostalgia maravilhosa, acordei e estou aqui ouvindo e cantando.

This literally breathes life into me
My boyfriend died early this morning and I'm struggling, but I know "even in death, our love will go on." But, Nathan, I miss you like crazy. I'll never forget you and I love you.
The pain, the memories never disappear... But, life goes on... and on... and on.... until it stopa.
This song is absolutely brilliant.. I love the way she sounds sweetly and apathetically insane..
This song is just so dark and twisted...I don't know if I should feel a bit disturbed if I chuckle to myself listening to it.

Don' t ever leave my side, not even for a second, STAY WITH ME ALWAYS💕💕💕

The Crow reference at the end I just realized that after hearing this song for years :0
It's from the film "The Crow" check it out, it's amazing. It's what the girl in it says in her voiceover
I can't stop replaying !

"Like You" is another song Amy Lee wrote in dedication to her sister. Her sister died when she was only 3 years old. Amazing video btw :)
