    Amy's younger sister passed away, when she was 6 years old. Amy said it affected her deeply. I think that's why, most of the early songs, have this haunting, feeling of emptiness, loss. But also this raw feeling, this force. Even if they aren't all about her...

      I always interpreted this song as loving someone woth drug addiction that finally passed away. But alternatively my heart wants it to be about vampires and the theme of the Underworld series.

    @neolithiumproduction 9 месяцев назад +123

    Yes, I love how you picked up on how she never touches the solid ground at any point in the video. Meanwhile, the guy is in black and always grounded, clearly struggling to write a song while seemingly dealing with a deeper sadness. Its definitely a song that brings to mind the lingering pain after losing someone you love to death. And I always say, never apologize for emotions. Songs like this clearly are written to draw out that emotion, and by crying...you prove the writer's and singer's efforts were successful.

    I lost my girlfriend of over a year due to suicide. We would talk every night around the same time every night. She had severe depression, and she told me that I was one of the only things that made her feel something. I remember there would be nights where I would hold her as she would break down from all the stress in her life. From the back seat of my car, to my couch. There would be times I would tell her yell and let out some of her stress because it was eating her up. She never could.
    Every night, I can't help but feel her gone. I stare at my last text messages from her. The last messages I ever got from her. I go through everything she ever gave me, from thank you cards, to birthday cards, to drawings she made for fun. I lose it everytime it plays "These wounds don't seem to heal. This pain is just too real"
    "There's just too much that time cannot erase"
    Rest In Peace.

      Call Me When You’re Sober was a wild one. I enjoyed a handful of Seether songs but the one that got me in to them was Broken featuring Amy Lee. Finding out that Call Me When Your Sober was written about Shaun Morgan and they’d been dating for years and he’d spiralled so far was shocking. It was kind of cool hearing that he supposedly checked in to rehab the day Call Me When You’re Sober came out.

    That whole album man... classic, epic. I still listen to it. Amy Lee's writing is amazing. When I was younger, this was just an amazing song I listen to. After my mom passed away from cancer in 2015, this is one of the songs that brings me comfort whenever the feeling of great loss visits me sometimes. I'm glad you and your wife are in a better space now and she's doing good. More power to you both!

    The lyrics were written by the guitar player. It's about the pain he experienced after losing a close loved one. He actually quit the band right after making this video.
    Also, Amy is supposed to be a spirit in the video. Notice how she's never touching the ground at all throughout the video.

      I've been an Evanescence super fan for 20 years, my absolute all time favourite band, yet I didn't know about the ghost thing... huh. I guess while I really really like My Immortal, I've never been as crazy about it as most other fans. I do however know from the bts that the dress is actually pastel pink, and that video is shot in the gothic part of Barcelona, and one day I'll go walk on that fountain!

    This is one of my favorite songs. And the fact you nailed it at the first watch with how she is always in white and when sitting in some shots the tree branches create a shape like wings is what made me feel she was the ghost. And her wrists wrapped in cloth makes me think it was a suicide on her part. Powerful and so beautiful song

  • @captsparrowslady
    @captsparrowslady 9 месяцев назад +4

    This is honestly one of my favorite songs. It is so hauntingly beautiful. Amy Lee's voice is just so ethereal and other worldly... And the fact that she can do these light whispery songs and still have such power and command with her tone and the strength of her voice... and then just belt it out when those guitars come in... She is amazing. There are very few albums that I love start to finish... even my all time favorite bands, I have some songs I don't like as much... I can honestly say that I love every single song on their album Fallen.

    Please please please keep doing more, this is just the first album that celebrates 20 years this year, she grows so much both her voice and the themes of her songs! (also p.s. fun fact the dress she wears is actually pink, but since it's in black and white everyone always thought it was white, I gasped audibly when I saw bts pics of the video!) (Amy actually has some songs about her younger sister who passed away at age 4, when she was 6, of unknown reasons, and it's something that always stayed with her a lot to the point that she doesn't perform live the songs that are specifically about her because she would get too emotional. It'd be cool if you looked up her story too, plenty of interesting trivia)(ok, not gonna say sorry about that, but can I say I'm glad all is fine with your wife? Cause I am. Love ya)

Tragically she drown when she was very young. It's very sad and again, very haunting. Definitely worth a listen. She never sings it during concerts. Understandably.

    This song is so relatable to many for many different reasons. Loss of a loved one by death or just the death of a relationship. When she sings, "But though you're still with me, I've been alone all the long" implies a relationship where one person is still holding on while the other is half way out the door.

    This song really touches the soul, no other way to put it. Back in the days it was the song they released when a band member (the one walking around in the video, in black) left the band because they had an argument about how to continue the project. It was written by the same band member, I believe, to deal with some grief and they chose to release it as a single and with a music video as a goodbye gift, honouring his song and feelings that way.

    When this song came out, I was stuck making hour long commutes to a job that kept my kid in Insulin. During the commute, I was refining a novel series (approximately 10 books). I plan to one day start releasing it, now that life has given me the time (in the worst possible way). From the first moment I heard this song, I knew THIS was the song that played during the final scenes of the final book. It encapsulated EVERYTHING about that moment and the journey to there. It makes the moment even more impactful because it evokes events in the audience member's own life, creating a bond that enhancing the emotions. I have finally had time this last year to outline the story that I have been developing for over 30 years. After a 300+ page outline, this song is still perfect both in lyrics and performers. A cover would be unacceptable.
    It is sad that this song has disappeared from the mainstream consciousness, but maybe I can eventually bring it back.
