  • Did this song define a genre? A year? A decade in music, perhaps? Bring Me To Life by Evanescence is one of those era defining songs that proliferated our hearts, souls and radio stations. What is it about this song? Why is it good? Is it all down to Amy Lee? Allow me to relive this song once more, 20 years later (yes this makes many of us feel old now), but this time listening a bit more carefully to hear what's really going. Did YOU like this song at the time? Is it impossible to hate it? Tell me.

    As I remember, the record company insisted on the rapping - it wasn't something Amy & the band wanted - it was forced on them. I believe that Amy has performed the song without the rap part.

    I've always respected the hell out of Amy Lee's voice and musicianship - she's pretty skilled. Great look for you, Mr. Hawkins.

    Absolutely loving hearing you talk about these early 2000 bangers lately. They were the soundtrack to mine and many other people's awakening as rock fans.

    Evanescence - Fallen and Avril Lavigne - Let Go. These were two albums I was listening to a lot whilst going through a bad patch. Soon afterwards The Darkness came along with PTL. It was actually a good period for many bands thinking back on it.
