      Maybe he isn’t having fun doing metal things anymore? He’s having fun doing Brazilian things.
      Nik isn’t a youngster anymore, and he’s been enchanted by the freedom that is America, and likely the warmth of both a woman and Florida.
      It was nice knowing him and seeing fun metal things while it lasted. He will be doing fun pop things soon enough.

  • @ImaWreckU
    @ImaWreckU 16 днів тому +14

    Heard the song on spotify the other day and was waiting for the video. I'm honestly surprised Violet wasn't reached for vocals since she has Amy Lee's exact voice but Lindsay still does a wonderful and unique/original take on the vocals without striving to *be* Amy Lee.

    • @ItsSauIGoodman
      @ItsSauIGoodman 16 днів тому +2

      I think the point of the video was to BE Amy Lee as much as possible, not to showcase your own originality. Not saying she has a bad voice because she doesn't, but it's far from Amy Lee, especially melody-wise.

  • @vanquished1809

    Nice video. It’s unfortunate that you didn’t include more complicated guitar riffs, cause evanescence is definitely much more than power chords in terms of guitars. Just check out Ben Moody’s guitar work on Fallen, it’s incredible

    Absolutely beautiful track, perfect choice for a vocalist. However, hard to hear the vocals and I feel like, especially with the chorus, there needs to be a harmony added in with the melody. Not saying it doesn't sound like evanescence, but if there was more harmony, I wouldn't be able to tell that this wasn't an evanescence track. :)
