    Amy was 6 and her sister Bonnie was 3 when passed away. So that's why school is involved. She never recorded a video or played live because it's too hard for her."Like you " is also about her late sister. And sometimes i think "Even in death" is too about her tho no one said it officially. I also read somewhere that a unknow seizure and a bath were involved. I don't know if that's true but everytime amy is singing about feeling lost, missing someone and longing there's water around her in her videos. It's a pattern

    This album is maybe one of the most nostalgic albums for me in so many ways.
    I always assumed this song was about someone who lost a loved one and became psychotic to the point they never accepted the death as a reality and lives with believing they're not actually gone. A kind of depersonalization or derealization of the death never happening. Kind of the opposite of walking corpse syndrome; an undefined mental illness related to a complicated grief where the stage of acceptance never came to be.
    After reading that it's about her little sister passing away while they were both young, the words were brought to life for me.
    From a musical aspect you have that main piano background phrase and the most popular notes are the low B, the Fsharp, the high D.. so those first three notes makes Bminor. But the high D resolves down to a Csharp. Those three notes would make it a Bsus2 or a Fsharp sus4 in a different position. Either way those notes give you a Bsus on top of a Bminor...so potentially a Bmin add 2 that creates so much tension.
    But keep going you have the middle pitched A. That gives us a DMaj7, B7, so on so on. Really the phrase is Bmin. Bsus2 or Fsharpsus4, resolving to the Fsharpminor. For the most part Bmin to Fsharpmin.
    Then you have some hope dealing with the AMaj+2 just to go back to that dark Bmin F#min Bmin.
    At the end I think it's about never fully accepting death but having internal condolences from the fact they life on via your experiences with them.
    Having a chello solo as the bridge to this song is fitting, almost perfectly fitting. They could have gone for a high register of a violin and that could have worked as well.
    This song is the musical representation of when someone asks "how's it going" and you out on a fake smile and say "fine" because that's how that formality exists in our current society even though deep down you can't stop thinking about an early death of a loved one and contemplating the entire concept of life and death in a general sense.
    The ending B minor chord is the nail in the coffin of the idea that death sorrow and loss is simply a part of our lives.

    My Immortal was written by co founder Ben Moody and was adapted from a short story written about his grandfather that passed away.
    The song is basically about a loved one that passes away but you can't seem to shake off their presence.
    Amy is depicted as an Angel or spirit singing about the living persons pain. This is apparently is why she never psychically touches the ground.
    Some people say she killed herself which is why she has bandages on her wrists. That's not the case. Those are ribbons not bandages, she also has them wrapped around her feet and ankles as well.
    The original album version did not have the band section at the end. Amy added the bridge and band section later and offered it as a free download for those that bought the album.

So sad, and now I can tell to be prepared for “Like You”. Going to send me on another emotional ride?

    As far as I know the only official Evanescence music videos are:
    - Bring Me To Life
    - My Immortal
    - Going Under
    - Everybody's Fool
    - Call Me When You're Sober
    - Lithium
    - Sweet Sacrifice
    - Good Enough
    - What You Want
    - My Heart Is Broken
    - Lost In Paradise
    - Hi-Lo
    - Imperfections
    - The Chain
    - Wasted On You
    - The Game Is Over
    - Use My Voice
    So the other videos would be either Live Performances, Fan Made music videos, or Lyric Videos I believe. Hope this helps for future reactions.

    The demo of "Hello" sounds darker/sadder and Amy's voice more emotional/younger.
    They added in that demo a vocal pad (2nd verse) + guitar (last chorus) and the piano chords in the 2nd verse are like in the first verse.
    There are also background vocals which are only hearable if you know where they are placed in the demo.
    The final version has a violin while they used strings in the demo. I prefer the demo. Would love to know what you think about this demo.

    There’s no music video to this song… During Fallen era they only released videos for Bring me to life, Going Under, My immortal and Everybody’s fool… the album itself is more kind of a compilation of old (and good) songs… the only song they actually wrote exclusively for Fallen was Going Under… all the other songs have at least 2 or 3 different demo versions… some of them like “Imaginary” have different lyrics to some parts or COMPLETELEY different instrumentals such as Bring me to life and Whisper and Imaginary too lmao

    Growing up in the 2000’s ppl would say that every rock band with a female vocalist sounded like Evanescence… all of them… but the truth is that NONE OF THEM sounded like Evanescence, specially the lyrics… Amy has a very particular way of conveying her message and exposing her feelings in a song…
