  • It's been a while since I've heard the angelic voice of Amy Lee, and I've always wanted to go back to Evanescence - and today's the day! This super power of hers to tear off my armor and make me feel sensational emotions is uncanny, and I can't wait to go under her spell again!
    Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Evanescence performing "Going Under" for the first time.

      The song is by the band Seether. She was dating the lead singer (Shaun Morgan Welgemoed). They then had a messy break up. "Fake It" is the song he wrote about her, and "Call me when you're Sober" is the song she wrote about him :)

    Amy Lee is an absolute LEGEND of the 2000's. You couldn't go anywhere without hearing her voice. It's so unique and piercing and haunting that you can't confuse her with anyone else. I used to think that her vocals were highly studio altered until I had the opportunity to meet her during a concert in Indianapolis while she was warming up. I can vouch that absolutely that is EXACTLY what she sounds like live. There is no strain or wobble in her voice AT ALL. She can easily shatter glass - did it as a party trick during the meet & greet on her first go. Crazy talented.

    • @luziel3071

Most people seem to have forgotten this one. But it will always be one of the best performances by Amy. Watched it many times. And still feel the same way.

    I listened to a ton of Evanescence in college. They got paired with Lincoln Park a lot in my dorm in 2002 (we had a weird section 🤣). I haven't listened to Evanescence in a while, but I always remembered Amy Lee's voice. It's such a magical, golden voice. It was my gateway drug to symphonic metal, so to speak.
    Also, she's doing that piano herself. Multi-talented.
    One funny thing I took from this: I must have listened to this song 50 times and I always thought the line in the pre-chorus was "I...dive again" and not "I'm...dying again". Which made sense in my brain because "dive" goes with "going under" and the imagery of diving into water in the video. Crazy that I've had this line wrong in my head for over 20 years!

    Back in 2003 when Evanescence was touring for "The Fallen" album, the Charlotte, NC date had to be rescheduled due to Amy falling ill. At the makeup show, she said she got really sick from doing the underwater scenes for the "Going Under" video. The band did a KILLER cover of "Zero" by the Smashing Pumpkins and Amy sat on the edge of the stage while playing a keyboard to have the whole crowd embarrass her bandmate by singing happy birthday to him. Her voice was just as good in person as it was on the album.
    Also, the video has a lot of extra crowd sounds in it that are not present in the album version. The guitar solo was heavily drowned out by them. I recall guitarist Ben Moody's tone was harshly criticized at the time due to him using what were considered low quality Line6 amps. Considering "The Fallen" was the sixth best selling album of the 21st century, I think the band made out just fine.

      ​@@RyanEglitisEverything that made Fallen and Evanescence successful was because of Amy. Even My Immortal, "Ben's Song" was bound for the scrapheap before Amy pulled it out, changed some lyrics, and wrote the bridge for it. Ben needed to leave because if he stayed Evanescence wouldn't exist. He went on to write songs like Because of You by Kelly Clarkson. Ben leaving was the best possible thing for the band.

    • @RyanEglitis
      @RyanEglitis 22 дня назад +7

      @@notyoaveragesouthernmama5734 Amy definitely had the voice and a lot of the artistic flair. Ben reined that in and focused it towards what would be popular (along with their first record company). Yes, writing for pop stars kind of proves that point - it's in the name POP(ular). The results speak for themselves - Fallen and Origin are amazing throughout, the subsequent ones are merely good (with great singing).
      I also know he had to leave because of toxic interpersonal stuff, but barring that (not possible, I know), I think they were better musically with him.
      Saying all that, it's clear he needed a ton of the things Amy brought to the table, because while good, We Are the Fallen is in the opposite boat as Evanesence. They have the hooks, but can't quite deliver on the flair and singing chops of a truly top tier band.

    Amy Lee is one of the best vocalists in the world, regardless of musical genre. And how good it is to listen to Evanescence. It takes me back to the 2000s where there was System of a Down, Linkin Park at its best, Limp Bizkit, Korn, Deftones and the whole explosion of Nu Metal that I love so much. By the way, I would love to see your analysis of a song called "What It Is" by Jonathan Davis, lead singer of Korn. It's a strong lyric with a powerful message. It would be incredible.

    I have this particular obsession with Evanescence; more so with Amy Lee herself and it started in 2003 when they were featured in the abysmal Ben Affleck led movie of Daredevil. In that instance of the film when I heard "Bring Me to Life" for the very first time, I was IMMEDIATELY transported to a safe space in my world of just her mesmerizing vocals and I. There, I continue to live within the foundations of what her sound fills my life with in the comfort, the healing, and the absolute enchantment of her pitches and hypnotizing range of voice. I attribute such a passion and obsession to a highlight in my life where I nearly lost my life as a vehicle I traveled in fell 45ft off a cliff and left me hospitalized for 3 months. Laying there, paralyzed, speechless, and comatose for a good duration of three months and broken still, I was provided her music and chilling vocals by family who recognized my admiration for her and to say Evanescence saved my life is no understatement. Laying there absolutely broken bodily with a swollen brain, as the primary impact and injury was sustained mentally with lacerations and trauma to the brain itself, vegetative and a composure likened to a corpse itself the one memory that I was fortunate to retain was the lyrics and emotions that her music touched in my heart that I mouthed the words to (before my ability of speech had returned to me) to each and every one of her tracks; both mainstream and unreleased (such as "Missing" look it up if you have the time). I apologize for the long-winded rant of an obsessed fan, but Amy Lee is on a whole plane to herself in my life when that first moment I heard her vocals I was boarded on the years-long infatuation train of everything Amy Lynn Lee, and will forever regard her as the saint to bring healing to my world.

      No. All it was is a fracturing of rock and metal into distinct niches that would dominate for a couple of years then fall off for the next fad. Grunge was just boring, and later with bands like evanescence you could at least start to get back some of what made rock and metal so good to begin with. I've lived with rock and metal through the seventies, eighties, nineties up through today. And the nineties were just blah.

    Many performers (musical and otherwise) talk about getting "in the zone." When you see a guitarist who seems like they're in a trance, when you see a dancer who seems like they're completely lost, and both of them are always pulling off an absolutely killer performance, that's it. Amy Lee routinely acts and sounds like she's there.
    That's correctly known as a "flow state." Hungarian research Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi is best-known for researching this, in-depth.
    Other people seek this state as well. As a developer (programmer), I can get into a flow state while working on code (frequently requires some fast / loud music, a certain amount of caffeine and avoiding certain technologies) and ...geez, where did the day go? But man ... I got SO MUCH done today.

And c) I'm pretty sure the whole crowd, and the band, and everyone else, understood that the crowd wasn't legitimately booing them, like "GET OFF THE STAGE!!!" It was a lighthearted compliment, with basically 40,000 people telling Amy that she is so beautiful and talented that we ALL wanted to be the one to marry her.
      Just a thought, friend: you'll find "hate" anywhere you WANT to find it, and if you want to read hate into everything you see, then you'll think there's a lot of hate where there's not. Or at the very least you'll miss the hate that's actually there because you're too distracted by the hate you want to see. Either way, you shouldn't throw around words like misogynist just because.
