I'm 32. I live with this chronic pain, fibromyalgia since I was 24. Its so relatable to this song, whatever or whoever this song is written for, I don't care, it relate me so much with this pain.
Im almost a 30 year old woman, i remembered when her album came out in 2004, i fucking cried when My Immortal came on. That song, even many many years later can still stop me in my tracks and bawl.
@@fibromanmusc4369 been living with that for a long time too my friend. So many people doubt your pain when you are so young. Don't let those people drag you down. But you can overcome with proper mindset. Not every day, but most if you try and have faith
I remember when they had their breakthrough there were so many bands where the "vocalists" were just random people screaming into the mic, then boom Bring me to life came out and I was like oh God FINALLY a real vocalist. There she was singing with such a hauntingly beautiful voice and you could feel the emotion in the songs, her love for her craft and her professionalism. I think every single one of us were and still are completely blown away by her.
My Immortal is one of the biggest vocal flexes. With all of the emotion behind the lyrics, it just brings it out even more. It’s not often a voice can fully captivate you, but she does it perfectly.
I’ve been an Evanescence fan since 2003, have been to 10 of their concerts, 9 front row & met Amy & the band at a meet & greet in 2012 (I won a contest). Aside from being a vocal powerhouse she’s the most down to earth, humble person. She’s used to praise but still acted almost embarrassed but honored when I told her what her music meant to me. I respectfully asked if I could put my arm around her shoulder for a picture & she smiled, grabbed my hand & pulled it around her waist. She’s so tiny my hand was on her stomach, lol. She’s a great artist & all around person. 👍🏻
Faezeh _ds Haha. It’s still been a few years since I’ve seen them live though. I missed the tour they did with the full orchestra but have seen it online & it looks like it was amazing. I’m lucky, because the few performers I’ve met (Amy Lee, Shirley Manson (of Garbage) & Gwen Stefani (when she toured with No Doubt in 2009/10 I believe) they were all great. I’ve heard of people meeting their idols & it going badly so I’m glad that’s never happened to me!
Gigi L Ha. Not really. With Amy, I paid an annual $30 to join the official Evanescence fan club (doesn’t exist anymore/it’s free) & my husband entered me into a meet & greet contest as a surprise when he saw they were having a meet & greet drawing in every city. They even let my friend come with me (even though she didn’t win she was just going to the concert with me). With Gwen/No Doubt I did the same thing, paid to join a fan club, paid extra for pit seats & got their 8 hours early! With Shirley Manson/Garbage we got there 10 hours early (not kidding) so we could be in the front row. Shirley, if she’s feeling up to it will often stay after the show (this was a smaller show in a bar/club) & walk around talking to fans. I mean, I know these women aren’t “Madonna” famous but I adore them, they have lots of fans & they’re millionaires. But they still manage to stay humble. Shirley even felt bad about having to cancel the original show date in Houston (because apparently Houston is one of Garbages top selling cities, they have a lot of fans in Texas), so at the rescheduled show she brought out a binder full of ALL her songs lyrics & took requests from the audience for over an hour longer than the original show. She would sing whatever songs fans asked for & it was great. Because with her long career & *many* songs she’d sometimes forget the words & just ad lib. Lol 😅 It was awesome. 🤘🏻
When Amy went "wow" to her band, you have to remember, she was 21 (or 22 at that time) and they were in their first year of breaking through. She got emotional that the fans gave such a response to their music, which is very personal to her and she fought so hard for to become what it is. This is the exact footage that introduced me to the band, and I never let go of them.
The song was popular when my mom lost her battle with cancer. Most days I was at the hospital with her watching her dissolve into this person that weighed 85 pounds. It was very hard losing her. I would put this CD in and sing and cry to this song while driving. It made it easier to cope with the loss I was experiencing. It made me feel like I wasn't alone in experiencing such a huge loss. Although I don't play this song much anymore, it still has a certain comfort for me.
Mee too! Evanescence and Linkin Park were my fave band when I was 16years old! I’ve seen Linkin Park on Rock Werchter 2017, weeks before Chester died.. now I’m gonna cry 😞😭. .
In my opinion, Amy Lee has the most amazingly powerful voice in the world. It's not manufactured, it's pure and natural. That voice comes from the depths of her soul and speaks to the world. I fell in love with her voice when I first heard _Bring Me To Life_ and that hasn't changed. Everything she's done since has been equally amazing. Thanks for this video. Between your words and the comments, I know I am not alone in being moved deeply by Amy Lee's vocals. Thanks again!
This song reaches to the bottom of your soul and will not let go. It is real. It stirs the senses with it's melancholy beauty, while gently ripping your heart out by their roots. It's haunting message of love is universal and it is eternal. May we all find a love so inspiring and deep... but a love I wish we all could keep! Love.
@@C.Church not even remotely. Lady Gaga is amazing and has killer vocals but her voice doesn't have the same classical/rock(the way she holds/cuts notes) quality as Amy's does. Amy was classically trained, Gaga was trained by the same person who trained Christina Aguilera which is why her voice always has a pop like quality.
@@littlemissnerd3761 And I say the opposite. The original singer sounds all up in her throat, it gives me phantom strained vocal chords listening to it.
I saw evanescence live when I was a teenager and it is still the single most powerful moment In my life. It was 80% amy and the piano. It was haunting. I'm sure everyone felt like I did which was like I was the only person in that whole arena. The videos online of her live are trash. It's her. Her presence her spirit. That make her voice/presence amazing
Her beautifully haunting voice gives you the sense of a devastating shock. That point in a severe heartbreak were you realize you whole world is just gone. And you don't know what to do or say next. It's like a deathly calm your whole body is numb. Than she delivers that last verse and all the emotions just crash. Yeah.... she's a top notch singer definitely on my permanent playlist.
@@wallihaley5194 to some people heartbreak is a world ending thing it's like your insides die and all that's left is an empty shell and you're just moving in slow motion while the world is passing you at top speed some people are broken and can't be fixed thank you
@@metalmanny666 absolutley! I remember the first time I heard them in my 8th grade science class because they were on the a playlist my teacher played while we worked amongst ourselves. I asked one of my classmates if they knew the group and the song and they replied "evanescence" to which I asked "who"? Because I honestly had no idea what was coming out of their mouth. I finally had asked them if they could spell it and they hesitated for a moment and then thought about it for a while and finally passed me a note that would open my eyes and send me on an awakening.
The thing with her voice is that if you've listened and enjoyed it once it becomes unforgettable. Even if you spend some time without listening or even thinking about them, the moment you start hearing one of their songs, especially one as iconic as "My Immortal", it's like no time has past at all. At least for me 😍
She is one of the few singers that you hear them and it's like, "Oh come on, at least give everyone else a chance." Her voice and the emotion it carries is ridiculous it's so good.
In the early 2000's when she lived in Little Rock, AR she would come into a little bar called Jaunita's on some random weeknight and play. In such an intimate environment, it really was a religious experience.
@@ashleygallaher7837 Great bar and live music. Got a great story of a couple of roadies and me saving a soon-to-be-bride after she was savagely beaten by the future best man after they went out drinking. The night before the wedding. He caught an agg-assault charge on her, assault charge on me, drunken disorderly and possession. Fun times.
@@MusicMoviesTheaterHockeyOhMy I don't usually want to get involved in situations I know nothing about, but this was clearly different. There was no way any of us were going to ignore. He took a swing at me just as sheriffs showed up and got bounced off the asphalt for it.
I remember when they played Night Life for NYE like 99 or 2000. Hated that place lol. Juanita's was the shit though (before they moved to the River Market).
To me, Amy Lee is much like Freddie. Often imitated, but never duplicated. Her voice is this beautifully haunting siren that draws you in. It's very distinct. It touches your soul. So so talented.
I have loved Evanescence since their debut. This is such a huge song, I am always so impressed at Amy Lee's piano playing and how the boys stay quiet until that one part. It becomes so powerful. The piano is actually a percussion instrument (the hammers hit strings) amazing song driven by percussion.
The piano is without a doubt a string instrument because it's sounds are generated from the vibration of the strings. However, it is unique in that it's played like a percussion instrument, which makes it incredibly difficult (nearly impossible for the normal person) to play it and sing at the same time.
Amy Lee has the Voice of a ANGEL. She can perform her songs live as well as she can in the studio. Thanks Rebecca for reviewing so many great vocalist. Oh and Rebecca you are awesome and a great vocalist and vocal coach. Keep up the GREAT work. Cheers from the USA \m/\m/...
I got to see her live this past summer and brought my teenagers. My daughter said she had full body chills for the whole concert. It was a religious experience.
Its his opinion, you can keep your opinions to yourself, I dont think amy is the best either maybe barely in top5. She has really unique sound tho, always loved her and evanescence overall. But yeah, you cant fight about whos the best in your opinion lol.
@@jokedyy764 Offcourse, but selecting your favorite singer isn't a sum of all kind of skills but about personal preferences. I can see and hear Floor has a lot of skills that exceeds Amy's. Nevertheless Amy has some unique features that makes me like Amy more.
Amy Lee has one of those voices that fills every aspect of the room and your soul. She has monster vocals. Beautiful voice! Loved seeing Evanescence live, especially back in the day when they were very popular.
When this was released as a single, i read an interview and the guitarist (who i think left the band shortly after) said there's a recording somewhere of him singing it because he wrote it when he was 15!
This vocal coach is so positive about singing, complimenting all the good aspects instead of overshredding and over technical ctitique that I am actually now interested in her channel and a fan. I just simped out for this chick she's great. I don't even watch vocal coaches.
Don’t pigeon hole her, though. She is so much more and I’m sure you know that. What she did on this song was hit the perfect vocal tone to express the emotion she wanted to get across. Although she is very haunting in Broken, which is meant to illicit similar emotions.
Amy Lee has one of the most beautiful voices that I have ever heard...and I am 62 years old. She is in an elite class of vocalist. I have to go back over 40 years to Karen Carpenter to find someone who had such a special voice, where everything she sang made you feel like she was singing your own life.
When this song was new my Dad was fighting cancer. The lyrics remind me of what my Mom was going through at the time and then the aftermath of his passing for the next five years. It was incredibly hard to watch her go through all of that. While at the same time dealing with my own grief. Still, it's a beautiful song, her writing, her amazing voice, as you said her emotional connection to the song itself. Makes me tear up every damn time. And I'm from the last of the generation where guys weren't supposed to show emotion, tear up, certainly not cry. Took me decades to get over that shit. I'm sorry, I just feel like I can talk to you Rebecca. Thank you for this lovely reaction. Thank you for being you beautiful lady.
Get emotional when you need to Rebecca... we are human. Emotion comes from our Soul. The Soul is the mentality of the Heart. The Soul : the Will; the Emotions and your Conscience. She sings so incredibly and amazingly beautiful! Truly layered emotional feelings!
I saw them in my hometown in Australia for the same tour, and I distinctly remember the same massive cheer mid song after Amy finished the first chorus
I had the privilege of seeing Amy Lee & Evanescence in person in Chicago many years ago. I still remember how amazing it was. I actually didn't listen to my CDs of Evanescence for months afterward, because Amy Lee's voice was simply so extraordinary in person, the CD couldn't capture her performance and was a letdown in comparison. I wanted to hold the memory of how beautiful the concert was as long as possible, without the CD recording interfering with that. May sound strange, but it's the only live performance that I ever felt was so far above recorded versions.
Lovely reaction, Rebecca. Amy Lee is probably one of my most favourite vocalists who I’ll never see live. She just has a wonderful voice and style. Thanks for this.
@@tammimarie timing mostly. I'm in Australia and tours are pretty far apart as it is but juggling work with single parenting makes things difficult as well. I don't like relying on UA-cam but it's the next best thing 🤘
@@zenleto Single parenting is a pain in the arse when making plans, my wife died last year and raising a kid on your own is harder than people realise.
In 2006 I had the pleasure to seeing her live, she sat there behind the piano about five metres away from me. Never ever heard someone sing like her, these emotions are incredibly touching. Awesome woman :)
Amy Lee is one of the greatest vocalists to walk the planet. Her voice gives me chills and I am not afraid to admit it. I am a vocalist and I have a deep appreciation for great emotional vocals.
This was a song played at my sisters (she’s not biologically my sister, but I’ve known her 20 years and she’s pretty much my older sister) kids funeral a few years ago. This song will ALWAYS and forever give me chills. The emotion behind it, her voice perfectly capturing that emotion too. This song will be one of my all time favourites ❤️
Amy Lee. Is bar none, one of the best female vocalists of all time. In my opinion. No other woman who sings her style of music makes my hair stand up on end like that. Absolutely amazing 👌❤️❣️
Don't be ashamed of your goosebumps and tears - I weep like a baby every time I hear this song - even knowing it for so many years and hitting it zilions of times :)
Wow. Dang I'm glad you did this song Miss Rebecca. That woman... What an absolute angel! She has an amazing voice and she's clearly beautiful, as beside the point as that may be. Amy Lee is really something special. By the way, you needn't ever apologize for feeling the music. I don't trust musicians that can stand stock still and look bored when there's good music in the area. I certainly wouldn't trust a vocal teacher that could. I come here to see you being you, ma'am. You're extremely good at it. Keep up the good work.
I’m so happy your doing this song. I Love Evanescence ((My Immortal )). My Daughter passed away March 2022. Her father Hung Himself in September 2020. Then Her 9 year marriage was strained after. The week before She passed away Her & her Husband filled for divorce & she found out her Beat Friend from the age of 7 was cheating on her husband. This is one of of mine & my Daughters Very Favorite Songs & we absolutely Love Evanescence. Love watching your work!! It’s truly remarkable how one song 🎧 that you love for years & years means something special and the next day has a completely different & more powerful meaning. Kylee I Love You Forever ♾ My Beautiful Daughter ❤️ 🦋 😢 🦚🌻
This song has helped to cope with the passing of my mother even though this song came out about 4-5 years after she passed. I was 16 when she died. Even though I still cry everytime I hear this song.
You're absolutely spot-on right about the purpose of singing- how it's all about connection. I believe singing is connecting with one's self, when writing and singing lyrics and melodies...and it's about connecting with one's band and how singers have to have a connection to every beat and note in a symbiosis of effort and collaboration...and how singing can connect one to his/her audience and the reactions and emotions they express. Whenever I sing, I have such a strong longing to be able to have a band and connect with them, as well as connecting with an audience. It's a passionate love affair like no other. I miss the times when I used to perform, the great love I connected with and felt from others, and I remember it was the most confident I've been in my whole life. I've watched so many of your videos, and I absolutely love how passionately you speak about both the music and singing techniques and training. Thank you for all your efforts to create such magic.
Thank you Rebecca for the Kermit impression. Really needed that laugh after such an emotional video. Also I LOVE the glasses think we might be twinsies there.

Evanescence is amazing, they helped me through some tough times in high school and beyond. The way she connects with her fans and the emotion she has while singing is amazing. I will always be a fan.

He caught an agg-assault charge on her, assault charge on me, drunken disorderly and possession. Fun times.
@@End3r_Wiggin Thanks for being a stand up guy. I hope everyone would intervene or help out but you never know anymore
@@MusicMoviesTheaterHockeyOhMy I don't usually want to get involved in situations I know nothing about, but this was clearly different. There was no way any of us were going to ignore. He took a swing at me just as sheriffs showed up and got bounced off the asphalt for it.
I remember when they played Night Life for NYE like 99 or 2000. Hated that place lol. Juanita's was the shit though (before they moved to the River Market).
Damn havent listened to this song in a while. Kinda brings me back to a completely different time in my life.
Its incredible how songs can transport you like that, isn't it?!? The memory is so weird and wonderful
To me, Amy Lee is much like Freddie. Often imitated, but never duplicated.
Her voice is this beautifully haunting siren that draws you in. It's very distinct. It touches your soul.
So so talented.
That's 100% true. I always know it's her
Good analogy
She’s one of the few vocalists that give me goosebumps as well. Especially this song.
I have loved Evanescence since their debut. This is such a huge song, I am always so impressed at Amy Lee's piano playing and how the boys stay quiet until that one part. It becomes so powerful. The piano is actually a percussion instrument (the hammers hit strings) amazing song driven by percussion.
I would have to disagree. A bass or a guitar are also played by hitting its strings. They're all strings instruments: guitar, bass and piano.
The piano is without a doubt a string instrument because it's sounds are generated from the vibration of the strings. However, it is unique in that it's played like a percussion instrument, which makes it incredibly difficult (nearly impossible for the normal person) to play it and sing at the same time.
Amy Lee has the Voice of a ANGEL. She can perform her songs live as well as she can in the studio. Thanks Rebecca for reviewing so many great vocalist. Oh and Rebecca you are awesome and a great vocalist and vocal coach. Keep up the GREAT work. Cheers from the USA \m/\m/...
and Enya too
"Oh, this song is everything isn't it?” 2:42
Yes.
I got to see her live this past summer and brought my teenagers. My daughter said she had full body chills for the whole concert. It was a religious experience.
This song has ALWAYS sent shivers down my spine every time I hear it 😭 Her voice is just so beautifully haunting!
Amy Lee is by far the best female vocalist. I ever heard
Are you guys deaf. He likes Amy's voice more than alll the ones you are mentioning. And I agree. Taste is personal.
Its his opinion, you can keep your opinions to yourself, I dont think amy is the best either maybe barely in top5. She has really unique sound tho, always loved her and evanescence overall. But yeah, you cant fight about whos the best in your opinion lol.
@@jokedyy764 Offcourse, but selecting your favorite singer isn't a sum of all kind of skills but about personal preferences. I can see and hear Floor has a lot of skills that exceeds Amy's. Nevertheless Amy has some unique features that makes me like Amy more.
Cyberdemon Mike Beyoncé 🤮
@Cyberdemon Mike Beyonce is overrated. I, personally dont like any of her music.
This song is pure magic. The band entry is pure exhilaration. You can feel a surge of power in your entire body. Makes you want to sing loud as well.
I can honestly say that Amy Lee will be remembered as one of the greatest voices in rock.. She is simply amazing.
Amy Lee has one of those voices that fills every aspect of the room and your soul. She has monster vocals. Beautiful voice! Loved seeing Evanescence live, especially back in the day when they were very popular.
When this was released as a single, i read an interview and the guitarist (who i think left the band shortly after) said there's a recording somewhere of him singing it because he wrote it when he was 15!
Amy Lee has been a vocal icon to me for years! Finally saw her live a few years ago and she's definitely AMAZING live 🥰😁❤️
Amy Lee's voice is so haunting. It grabs your soul
This song brings up so many early adolescence memories, it's craaaazy. I love it.
It's ok to cry hun, I'm a military veteran and Amy's voice brings tears to my eyes as well 🤗
This vocal coach is so positive about singing, complimenting all the good aspects instead of overshredding and over technical ctitique that I am actually now interested in her channel and a fan. I just simped out for this chick she's great. I don't even watch vocal coaches.
For real, no Simon Crowell here, and even with the positivity, she isn’t overboard like Paula Abdul was.
This video randomly appeared in my suggested, and reignited my love for Amy Lee's voice.
This song still makes me cry after all this time. This whole album is a masterpiece. I've also used the word " haunting " to describe her voice.
Don’t pigeon hole her, though. She is so much more and I’m sure you know that. What she did on this song was hit the perfect vocal tone to express the emotion she wanted to get across. Although she is very haunting in Broken, which is meant to illicit similar emotions.
Amy Lee has one of the most beautiful voices that I have ever heard...and I am 62 years old. She is in an elite class of vocalist. I have to go back over 40 years to Karen Carpenter to find someone who had such a special voice, where everything she sang made you feel like she was singing your own life.
when you get the goose bumps in the first 15 seconds of the song, you know the artists is doing everything right.
Her voice sounds like a thousand angels hearts breaking
Beautiful ballad, but to me, "Hello" is the most amazing ballad ever written by Ev, probably. With incredible darkness.
I'm agree with u
Yea Hello is a great track. I'm pretty sure Hello is about the death of Amy Lees younger sister
@@DOMSKYTRANCE it is! She has one song per album dedicated to her late sister
I absolutely LOVE "Hello"
One of my top 5 favorite songs of all time!!! She is Amazing
When this came out I was around 12 and it made me cry. I had no clue what the song was about, it was just the sheer emotion in Amy's voice.
You can't teach her voice! She's absolutely amazing!
When this song was new my Dad was fighting cancer. The lyrics remind me of what my Mom was going through at the time and then the aftermath of his passing for the next five years. It was incredibly hard to watch her go through all of that. While at the same time dealing with my own grief. Still, it's a beautiful song, her writing, her amazing voice, as you said her emotional connection to the song itself. Makes me tear up every damn time. And I'm from the last of the generation where guys weren't supposed to show emotion, tear up, certainly not cry. Took me decades to get over that shit. I'm sorry, I just feel like I can talk to you Rebecca. Thank you for this lovely reaction. Thank you for being you beautiful lady.
Lots of love
Jason Stinebaugh learned this on piano played for my dads funeral
Rebecca that cornflower blue is YOUR colour 🔥😊❤
Get emotional when you need to Rebecca... we are human. Emotion comes from our Soul. The Soul is the mentality of the Heart. The Soul : the Will; the Emotions and your Conscience. She sings so incredibly and amazingly beautiful! Truly layered emotional feelings!
I saw them in my hometown in Australia for the same tour, and I distinctly remember the same massive cheer mid song after Amy finished the first chorus
I could listen to Amy Lee sing anything and I'd still love it. She is one of the best pure vocalists I've ever heard.
I had the privilege of seeing Amy Lee & Evanescence in person in Chicago many years ago. I still remember how amazing it was. I actually didn't listen to my CDs of Evanescence for months afterward, because Amy Lee's voice was simply so extraordinary in person, the CD couldn't capture her performance and was a letdown in comparison. I wanted to hold the memory of how beautiful the concert was as long as possible, without the CD recording interfering with that. May sound strange, but it's the only live performance that I ever felt was so far above recorded versions.
Muse are the same too!
As a boy. Her voice is captivating. Insanity. I love every second of her singing
As a boy, I can confirm.
Amy Lee has a powerful, yet so delicate voice. Incredible!
You said you were in full goose bump mode. She does that to anyone who listens. She is a gift to our ears.
Lovely reaction, Rebecca. Amy Lee is probably one of my most favourite vocalists who I’ll never see live. She just has a wonderful voice and style. Thanks for this.
Aww why won’t you ever see her? I used to think that but then I saw her twice in the last two years. They are writing a new album now.
@@tammimarie timing mostly. I'm in Australia and tours are pretty far apart as it is but juggling work with single parenting makes things difficult as well. I don't like relying on UA-cam but it's the next best thing 🤘
@@zenleto Single parenting is a pain in the arse when making plans, my wife died last year and raising a kid on your own is harder than people realise.
Amy Lee is one of a very few singers that you can just feel from within
The only female singer I've found who can sing me to sleep at night and I can rock out to during the day. Her Synthesis album is absolute 🔥.
Amy has such a connection to the songs and her emotions translates to people who listen to her.
Fantastic reaction, your emotions were so compelling. I just love you, thank you for that one..
In 2006 I had the pleasure to seeing her live, she sat there behind the piano about five metres away from me. Never ever heard someone sing like her, these emotions are incredibly touching. Awesome woman :)
Amy Lee is one of the greatest vocalists to walk the planet. Her voice gives me chills and I am not afraid to admit it. I am a vocalist and I have a deep appreciation for great emotional vocals.
I have been a fan of her till I heard her live...thank God there are other really skilled singer and not fake like her...sorry
I was a junior in high school when this came out. This song got me through some dark times over the years.
This was a song played at my sisters (she’s not biologically my sister, but I’ve known her 20 years and she’s pretty much my older sister) kids funeral a few years ago.
This song will ALWAYS and forever give me chills. The emotion behind it, her voice perfectly capturing that emotion too.
This song will be one of my all time favourites ❤️
“A Goddess, a slayer, a queen”. Exactly
Amy Lee. Is bar none, one of the best female vocalists of all time. In my opinion. No other woman who sings her style of music makes my hair stand up on end like that. Absolutely amazing 👌❤️❣️
The lead singer from heart will certainly be up there too
Kenny Scicluna absolutely agree!!
Don't be ashamed of your goosebumps and tears - I weep like a baby every time I hear this song - even knowing it for so many years and hitting it zilions of times :)
Wow. Dang I'm glad you did this song Miss Rebecca. That woman... What an absolute angel! She has an amazing voice and she's clearly beautiful, as beside the point as that may be. Amy Lee is really something special.
By the way, you needn't ever apologize for feeling the music. I don't trust musicians that can stand stock still and look bored when there's good music in the area. I certainly wouldn't trust a vocal teacher that could. I come here to see you being you, ma'am. You're extremely good at it. Keep up the good work.
I’m so happy your doing this song. I Love Evanescence ((My Immortal )). My Daughter passed away March 2022. Her father Hung Himself in September 2020. Then Her 9 year marriage was strained after. The week before She passed away Her & her Husband filled for divorce & she found out her Beat Friend from the age of 7 was cheating on her husband. This is one of of mine & my Daughters Very Favorite Songs & we absolutely Love Evanescence. Love watching your work!! It’s truly remarkable how one song 🎧 that you love for years & years means something special and the next day has a completely different & more powerful meaning. Kylee I Love You Forever ♾ My Beautiful Daughter ❤️ 🦋 😢 🦚🌻
This song has helped to cope with the passing of my mother even though this song came out about 4-5 years after she passed. I was 16 when she died. Even though I still cry everytime I hear this song.
One of my all-time favorite songs. I have seen her live. It is one of the most emotional concerts I have ever been to. She is remarkable.
Amy lee was and still a breath of fresh air is the music industry.
You're absolutely spot-on right about the purpose of singing- how it's all about connection. I believe singing is connecting with one's self, when writing and singing lyrics and melodies...and it's about connecting with one's band and how singers have to have a connection to every beat and note in a symbiosis of effort and collaboration...and how singing can connect one to his/her audience and the reactions and emotions they express. Whenever I sing, I have such a strong longing to be able to have a band and connect with them, as well as connecting with an audience. It's a passionate love affair like no other. I miss the times when I used to perform, the great love I connected with and felt from others, and I remember it was the most confident I've been in my whole life. I've watched so many of your videos, and I absolutely love how passionately you speak about both the music and singing techniques and training. Thank you for all your efforts to create such magic.
Thank you for the great vid. I had a tear in the corner of my eye at the end of the vid. So much emotion in her voice, the feels!!
Only Rebecca can take an old song I've heard a thousand times and help me appreciate it like I've never heard it before. Thank you, milady.
That exactly what I felt right now! This is from an evanescence fan for 16 years!
Same
“That sounded Irish”. Priceless! Lllllllike!
drumonabumable 🤣🤣🤣 likeeeeee
Imagine if Amy and Tori would make an album and possibly a tour, each with their own piano and harmonizing their lyrics!
Thank you Rebecca for the Kermit impression. Really needed that laugh after such an emotional video. Also I LOVE the glasses think we might be twinsies there.
YES!!! TY! Finally Evanescence ❤️ you awesome btw, love your channel, educative and entertaining at the same time
Thanks for your support and comments 💖🌈

Thanks for reaction. Great singer. See "Lost in Paradise " sessions AMP rock.
Her voice is so powerful! I could wake up to her voice every single day!!
Her voice is so pure, so light, so feminine, yet so sad, its beautiful
She's just gotten better over the years ( in my opinion). This is a very old performance you should check out a live performance from their most recent tour. I love this band!!! Evanescence is amazing, they helped me through some tough times in high school and beyond. The way she connects with her fans and the emotion she has while singing is amazing. I will always be a fan. Thank you for listening to them. Great video!
Also, You should check out The Lone Bellow. I think you would like them.
I was thinking the same thing!
I used to cry listening to this when I had nothing and nobody
Gods always by you brother. Never feel that you are completely alone my friend. There is always someone with you.
Your comment just made me cry. 😭 God bless you, I hope you're doing better now. 🖤

her voice is like a siren , could crash me into the rocks at any time rock on sista
As a 65 year old who grew up with Page, Hendrix... When I first heard Amy sing I got goose bumps and the rest is history.
I could listen to her songs on repeat all day long! Simply amazing!
love her songs. and when the crowd sings, it has the xtra it needs
Saw her live and it was one of the greatest shows I have ever been to!! She is truly on another level!!
I loved watching the range of emotions that show on your face and body.
