Evanescence

[Psycho69]

Who else here absolutely loves this group and Amy's god damn beautiful voice? lol.

I never gave them a chance at first, and honestly, Bring Me To Life always annoyed the hell out of me. But, after awhile I downloaded their album after hearing Going Under and became an Evanescence Junkie.

Like Linkin Park, some of their greatest music, is located elsewhere, other then their debut album, "Fallen". But, although Amy Lee hated My Immortal, the label insisted it be placed on record, and I can't say I blame them.

A few other stand out tracks, I'd have to say are "You", and "Anywhere", which I'd like to see on their next album or added as bonus tracks.

I find it weird, that they'd allow everyone to be led to the impression that just Amy Lee writes the lyrics, it's obviously been known now that the members help also, but Ben Moody was a big part in the writing department. He was responsible for the entire creation of the words to "My Immortal" and sadly, part of the work on Avril Lavigne's newest album "Under The Skin".

Anyways.. What do you think of Evanescence and what song is your favourite? etc etc....



....HOT!

[FunkyD..Licious]

I think their GREAT
Love the music!!

[SneakySnufflez]

I love Evanescence
Favourite song has to be Away From Me
Love the chorus

Yup, I remember making a thread in misc about them a couple of years ago. Mike then became my "Evanescence guru". I'd just watched the premier of Dare Devil and came online straight away to get the songs..

Like every band though, their second album will have a lot to live up to

I love Evanescence, normally I dont listen to female singers much but I really love Amy's voice. Bring Me To Life is not that good but other tracks are much better

[proof109]

Absoulutely horrid. I hated my immortal and I've heard alot of their CD because a friend of mine is a fan. I can't stand them.

Wow, what is it that you find annoying or dislike?

[proof109]

^
Really I just kinda find them annoying. I mean, they know how to play their instruments, but I just don't like the sound, and I don't really like the signers voice.

I too dislike Evanescence (gah, they can't even spell!) very much. My brother is really big on them and refuses to believe that World Wrestling Entertainment put them on the map.

That lead off single, Bring Me To Life I think, was used in February 2003 for a WWE PPV theme song; they didn't appear on MTV or anywhere else until a month or two later. The same time as T.A.T.U if I remember correctly.

As far as their musical talent, they're just okay. She's got an Okay voice, but they're just another MTV band to me.

[CrazyAndProude]

amy lee is my idol she has very good lyrics.....I can sing like her so I am always singing her songs.

[Psycho69]

Just an okay voice? *shrug* I guess it's all opinion.

what do you mean, they can't even spell though? lol.

[KINGB19]

I like that they can have some hard songs and really come up with some spirtual singing that doesn't sound forced at all.

[Lil'Angel]

I like Eveanescence very much. My favorite song would be My Immortal since I couldn't stop listening that song. So no bad words for Evanescence from me

[CrazyAndProude]

my favorite song is imaginary and hello but it makes me cry every time I hear it.

[Le Diable Blanc]

Just an okay voice? *shrug* I guess it's all opinion.

what do you mean, they can't even spell though? lol.

Hm, well. Everytime I want to spell their name, I want to put "essence", as it's really spelt. Little did I know "Evanescence" actually meant something, lol.

But yeah, I don't like her voice. I'm very inept to that type of music. Singing wise, I prefer someone like Christina Aguilera, who can actually hit a note compared to the other bobble-heads on MTV.
