I think Mozart would be thrilled to hear this! Isn't it the greatest compliment if your music lasts through the centuries and is beloved by young people as well as old? Purists need to relax; it is a wonderful thing if someone loves your music enough to wish to incorporate it in his or her own creations.
i love how amy changed a classical song into something we all can listen to since nt everyone will actually sitt and listen to classical anymore but i love this version
The best thing I can say about this is that perhaps there will be a handful of people who will go and listen to the actual Requiem and realize what great music actually sounds like.
So like Amy Lee likes Mozart.... So I listened to it he had a soing called Lacrimose instead.... The back music the same. Its beautiful. Sort of eerie...
Kathryn Fiala I was beginning to think that most of Evanescence's rock music was based on Mozart music when I watch the movie The Voice From The Stone and I heard Amy Lee's solo song Speak To Me at the end of the movie I could be wrong but that's in my opinion and that's what I think I don't know for sure I'm trying my best to explain it how I want and I think the other youtubers have different opinions on this video I think and I can understand that some of their opinions may be the same as mine maybe that's just my next opinion I could be wrong about that and yes songs from Evanescence can be eerie like Haunted Tourniquet My Immortal Bring Me To Life Lacrymosa which is the song I just got done listening to here now Going Under and their new song Imperfection
since it is based on something written in the 1200s I'm guessing that either something has been lost in translation, or language has quite simply been changed a lot-yes, possibly even our latin
I HATE how allot people claim that she “RUINED” the original by ‘Mozart. I say “NO she DIDN’T!” and it’s like you can’t go and listen to the other version here on ‘RUclips’
i just read the lyrics, the FULL ones and i just wanted to ask... is it "lacrymosa, dies illa"? because i have learnt some latin at school and the full phrase means "teary, that day". the noun "dies" is in the 5th conjugation, whose all nouns are feminine, but this is the one thats masculine :P so it should normally be "lacrymosus, dies ille". Sorry for the brainwash ^^" i just couldnt keep myself !
@ToddLovett09 cud have made a better example though, like kesha, cause lady gaga ain't all pop garbage -- she takes root from 80's pop, putting traces of them in her music, and also citing it as her main influence. but otherwise, i agree with u, totally.
@UKpatriot90 Well that's up for debate (and a very large debate divinding Christian communities worldwide). I personally believe that his name being "Jehovah" (asJehovah's witnesses support it) is simply a misconception. "Jehovah" is the Hebrew translation of "I am" or "the one who is". He only gave this title (not name) to Moses because at the time, they were not ready to receive his "mysterious name of wonders", which was later revealed as "Jesus".
@MuseDuCafe First of all, bad performance? In an enclosed setting with the ability to edit and redo any part of a song, the performance is as good as possible. Second of all, Amy Lee is, for all you non-musicians out there, is as highly trained as a singer can be, and she has a tone quality that not a single singer can match. "Angelic" is the term most often used to describe it. Her notes are pure and without a waver, and her lungs are powerful enough to blow off a roof. Listen to her dynami
On the internet there are no rules wheter you have to speak a language because something was made in america if I buy an American t.v. does that mean I have to speak english each time im around it ?
Personally - singing love song to music, which was intended to express sadness, sorrow, grief over lost people (no matter how sad this love was) is just wrong. Not to mention, that love is often understood as the feeling you get when you are deeply attracted by someone's physical appearance. People say they love a lot. They usually don't know what they are talking about. Doesn't matter if her love was true - as long as he (guessing?) didn't die, this should've had different melody.
@nupinoop296 Well, technically "God" is NOT his name...lol. It's a noun, a title...His name would be (in this particular case only), "Jesus", and as you see, they didn't have a problem writing it down...
@courtney29100 That's a stupid thing to say. People like Mozart paved the way for bands like Evanescence in the future. Without the composers of the past music would be very different now.
Mozart was a fun loving musical radical in his time. on top of which he died young. I doubt he would be at all upset if he heard this song. The old people who are too conservative on the matter of music are the reason for the death of classical music. you should welcome the constant revival of classical music by each generation for it is the only way these divine pieces will survive. it's mearly evolution not destruction.
Its easy to blame someone else - u will be guilt free. You do nothing wrong - u are the man. Head out of arse. lol Change ur life NOW- u and only u can do it!!!! Everyone has their own issues and need to get as well as give. We all need to mend! Susie Q, I apologize to you for anything I have ever done. If you give me the opportunity, I would like to apologize in person and set the record straight on facrt and fiction. Reality is, I am responsibility for my own life and u are not to blame!! xo
Ok relajense, la ola esta chida, no ahy ke mentir. Ademas Mozart era muy moderno y le gustaba modernisar las canciones mas antiguas, asi ke no salgan con estas payasadas de ke si el estubiera aki se moriria de nuevo, porke no es cierto. Le daria mucho gusto ke sus canciones ahun vivan pormedio de nosotros los jovenes. Ademas, kien son ustedes para decir eso? si ustedes se ponene a tocarla ni a la primera le sale. Asi ke trankilos a ke reconocer ke se escucha bien. pa la otra ya saben...
Forty and more years of being a professional in classical music and working extensively with singers has me the opposite of 'ignorant.' you silly. That breathy thing is a pop music trick, to sound 'innocent' or 'adolescent' and to me, aesthetically, it is just rotten cheesy: the pop audiences eat it up though, and this, despite the cribbing of Mozart to frame this tune, is 100% pop music, about which I guess you know an astonishing amount about.
Lacrimosa and Dies Irae are two separate parts of the same epic poem. I have no idea why "Dies illa", the second part of the first line of "Dies Irae" is here. The Lacrimosa is a completely different part and the two together make no sense. I was hoping for an actual *cover* of Mozart's Lacrimosa, not a shoddy remix. But, whatever, it's not what the little emo kids who listen to Evanescence now want anyway.
Getting desperate are we using a masterpiece just make a new song all I heard was Mozart's requiem and someone singing in the background with some guitar
All i am saying is you cant tell someone wich language they can or cant speak and that it doesn't make sense what you say about its american so speak english
@mesich22 So severely doubt it. This is a terrible idea, cheap, not talknig about bad performance, but a shallow rip of a deep bit of music rendered pop-cheap with that adolescent breathy bad singing so many tweens think is,like 'really emotional. Fucking dreadful, really. Now, if they'd made up their own everything.

Why was this song not one their most popular songs? It's great in so may ways.
Thank you!!! Evanescance 👍👋🤘Love you!❤Amy lee💋💋💋

Purists need to relax; it is a wonderful thing if someone loves your music enough to wish to incorporate it in his or her own creations.
The last part where she sings, 'I don't want to hold you back now, love.' starting around 3:10 still gives me the chills.
i love how amy changed a classical song into something we all can listen to since nt everyone will actually sitt and listen to classical anymore but i love this version
I like what you're saying. Couldn't agree more. Hats off to you!
I love it. Unfortunetly There isn't video music of this song. I hope it will be ;)
The best thing I can say about this is that perhaps there will be a handful of people who will go and listen to the actual Requiem and realize what great music actually sounds like.
I like this a lot better than the original!!! It's freakin' awesome!
I love it!
You are EPIC!
Ahh..... wonderful!
Lacrymosa comes from the Latin word lacrimo, which means cry (or more specifically, I cry). A fitting title if I say so, myself.
Epic fail for cutting the end off, even if it was only about ten seconds. still, one of the greatest songs ever written
Opening. Sheba
evTom14 do you know this is Mozart music? Check it out!
wolfgang amadeus requiem
bellissima questa canzone..
Amazing! :)
This is a great song
Mozart was a Genius when he composed this, I wish I could add this to my Myspace profile
amazing song
j ' adore cette musique
Awesome
So like Amy Lee likes Mozart.... So I listened to it he had a soing called Lacrimose instead.... The back music the same. Its beautiful. Sort of eerie...
Kathryn Fiala Amy is a trained Opera Singer.
Kathryn Fiala not sang in English on Mozart’s version
Kathryn Fiala I was beginning to think that most of Evanescence's rock music was based on Mozart music when I watch the movie The Voice From The Stone and I heard Amy Lee's solo song Speak To Me at the end of the movie I could be wrong but that's in my opinion and that's what I think I don't know for sure I'm trying my best to explain it how I want and I think the other youtubers have different opinions on this video I think and I can understand that some of their opinions may be the same as mine maybe that's just my next opinion I could be wrong about that and yes songs from Evanescence can be eerie like Haunted Tourniquet My Immortal Bring Me To Life Lacrymosa which is the song I just got done listening to here now Going Under and their new song Imperfection
I'm surprised they're not on any of the Twilight movie soundtracks, they're certainly emo-enough!
me encanta evanescence su voz de la chava esta muy padre
love this song. my life
since it is based on something written in the 1200s I'm guessing that either something has been lost in translation, or language has quite simply been changed a lot-yes, possibly even our latin
I agree with you D:
@Toxin08 if I were a musician I would be honored if someone used my work in such a magnificent song. Amy Lee is a genious
Well the original piece is great! But I find this one great two =D And you know mozarts piece is still his. She just used it a bit chill =)
@ToddLovett09 you´re so right
i love the pict
where you get it?
sorz i'm just going to scrape and say this songs epic! sorz continue your debate it's interesting! ^-^ "evanescence live on" *said in quiet voice* lol
I HATE how allot people claim that she “RUINED” the original by ‘Mozart. I say “NO she DIDN’T!” and it’s like you can’t go and listen to the other version here on ‘RUclips’
i just read the lyrics, the FULL ones and i just wanted to ask...

i'm totally agree with Toxin08
@steffyluvsmusic Hmm...Where does it say that?

@AntiqueAngel44
well she did, besides.. you don't go and mess up a great masterpiece.
ah me encanta el Requiem de Mozart y lo que ha hecho Evanescence no está nada mal :D
If you hate this beautiful rendition so much then why the FrUk are you here?
luv it!!
@UKpatriot90 Well that's up for debate (and a very large debate divinding Christian communities worldwide).

beautiful. The only group that can truly succeed in messing with mozart. lol
wow this reminds me of a soundtrack from fate stay night
Its easy to blame your problems on someone else.the amount u need - they need mending themselves,just like yiu do.
Wtf is with the stopping every five seconds! God Damn!
@AntiqueAngel44
should be, mozart's music and other famous composers' music shouldn't be abominated by this person
On the internet there are no rules wheter you have to speak a language because something was made in america
if I buy an American t.v. does that mean I have to speak english each time im around it ?
Lady Comstock approved

Since she doesn't hold a candle near to Bjork or Jessye Norman, I could not be less interested.
@ToddLovett09 i 100% agree!
😍😍😍
@nupinoop296 Well, technically "God" is NOT his name...lol. It's a noun, a title...His name would be (in this particular case only), "Jesus", and as you see, they didn't have a problem writing it down...
@turbotimmy67899 the songs based of Mozart's "Lacrimosa"
mozart lived before copyright protection;not that he minded people hearing his music.
@courtney29100 That's a stupid thing to say. People like Mozart paved the way for bands like Evanescence in the future. Without the composers of the past music would be very different now.
@theodoroscristou No he wasn't; I think you mean Beethoven :-)

❤
So go on another page if you don't like it! (?)
no, but the people who learn it can get things wrong, allowing for flaws
@steffyluvsmusic Why did you sensor God?
what is explain
@Missleanneiscool actually I'm pretty sure it's non existent by now.
mmmmmmm yes, maybe
and wtf latin cant change itself
i even discussed it with my latin teacher. She is puzzled too.
You cut off the awesome ending!!!
@steffyluvsmusic Ah, I see.
yeah, it doesn't follow the Mozart much at all. They just kind of based a formula rock tune on his opening riff.
Mozart would turn in his grave if he heard this.
Its easy to blame someone else - u will be guilt free. You do nothing wrong - u are the man. Head out of arse. lol Change ur life NOW- u and only u can do it!!!!

+Sheldon Bailey The Passion of The English Language...
mozart's version is far more full of passion than this one. You can hear that easily in just the first few chords.
mozart is a genius.
It wasn't ment for you to read so no complain it was for who understands spanish and obviously you dont so Zipped
lol, no worries
...agreed, damn, this is just...wrong, not that i don't like evanescence, but mozzart's version is 1000 better
If you don't like it, why are you listening to it? :P
Requiem
hmm, I don't know what to say.
Not everyone lives in america >_>
"It is not Pop, Its Metal" Pop / Jazz / classical -- (small 'c' = all eras of classical). Metal IS POP MUSIC, Doh!
Ok relajense, la ola esta chida, no ahy ke mentir. Ademas Mozart era muy moderno y le gustaba modernisar las canciones mas antiguas, asi ke no salgan con estas payasadas de ke si el estubiera aki se moriria de nuevo, porke no es cierto.

Asi ke trankilos a ke reconocer ke se escucha bien. pa la otra ya saben...
@Whitelight1970 love being ripped off and in a much less deeply meaningful pop commercial setting. Oh, yes, just I'm sure what the man wanted.
Poor Mozart!...
.... What if they're not living in America ?
Why the hell is there a religious debate going on here?
... so ?

seems like you're the one who is adopted
I think its cool that they did that. So who cares

Que decepcion. Quiero llorar pobre mozart. Mataron a su requiem.
internet is not a country
@mesich22 So severely doubt it. This is a terrible idea, cheap, not talknig about bad performance, but a shallow rip of a deep bit of music rendered pop-cheap with that adolescent breathy bad singing so many tweens think is,like 'really emotional.

How to turn a beautiful song into a piece of crap...
...this way, obviously.
no,
just no.
take out the guitar, the unnecessary drums and just use the original percussion used in the original song. ._.
