Her name is Amy Lee, Best female vocalist in my opinion. The song is not actually about a breakup, its about the death of a loved one. The music video is an artwork... Notice in the video how her feet never touch the ground and she’s in all white with bandages all over her. She’s representing that she’s a spirit and the one who has died. The guy is left behind with all their memories and dressed looking like he just got back from a funeral.

Her little sister died at 3 years old. 1987. Then, her brother died in 2018 of Epilepsy. She's had a lot of tragedy in her life.

20 something years later and this song ( the drop at the end more specifically ) still gives me chills. If you noticed she’s like an Angel cause she never actually touches the ground in the video.

Not to be a Debbie Downer on your video but; Many years ago, my fiancé was suddenly stricken with leukemia. I stayed with her through it all. I was constantly in the hospital, refusing to leave her side. All the treatments, the endless nights trying to comfort her pain. Holding her hand through it all while wiping both of our tears away with the other. Sadly, she had to be put into an induced coma because she began to have seizures. Her final words, (which I didn't realize at the time) were "Wait for me, I'll be back." A few days later, she passed away. 💔 On that day, as I left the hospital, this was the very first song that came on the radio. I never heard it before, and I felt like she was sending me a message in the lyrics. I had to pull over and I lost it. To this day, every time I hear this, she comes back to me! Thank you for reacting this and bringing her love back into my day! God bless! 😇❤️

As a two year widower, every note of this song resonates in me, I just luv your reactions!!!

This song always gives me goosebumps. Amy's voice is on another level. Incredible

This song is one of the most beautiful songs ever written…I cannot listen to this song without crying…it’s penetrates every part of my being.

Her voice is so angelic and yet strong. She is top 5 of female singers to me. Gorgeous. So haunting and moving. Always brings me to tears.

This started out as a song from Ben about his grandfather, then Amy added her touch to it. Beautiful collaboration.

65 yo guy here and have been into music I would say since 1967 as a 9 yo and I think that this song is so Beautiful and they have other songs that I really like, Thanks for sharing.🥲

"Bring Me To Life is always the first song of theirs I'd recommend, It rocks. Amy Lee is a vocal Sorceress, just always AMAZING!! This is a soft, emotional one for them. Realize she is a ghost that can't leave because he won't let go. Notice she never can touch the ground.

A beautiful power ballad. Amy's voice is just glorious in this.

She has the most amazing voice, I've always thought that she is the one who has passed as she never touches the ground and is mourning this. Check out 'Bring me to Life' and 'Call me when you're sober'... amazing vocals

I've listened to this song a thousand times and it's always like the first, so emotional, passionate and makes me swell in tears. THAT... is art.

This is my go-to song when I start remembering people I've lost. It will help put your thoughts in order and get that pain out. This July 1st will be 5 years since I ost my mom, July 21st marks 25 years since I lost my dad. I play this on loop for most of the day.

One of the most beautiful songs ever written and performed. Amy Lee is legendary.

Amy Lee is a classically trained pianist. Also she is a trained opera singer which is why her voice is so powerful and stunning. She writes all her own lyrics and makes her own stage/video outfits.

Amy's voice is unique for me. I've heard lots of covers from their songs and still nothing can beat her

This is a awesome song this song was popular during my high school years

Here's a few more. "Call Me When You're Sober", "Going Under" and "What You Want"

Every time I see Evanses performing I cry I feel her so real I hope she have a nice life full of hopes ❤️😭

One of my favorite groups and this is one of my favorite songs ❤

Loss of a loved one.. are they around us? (note she's not there in body.. she never touches the ground.. ) He's alive.. walking the streets missing her. another clue are the burial rags she's wearing. She's singing, but he's the one thinking it.

I think she is a spirit, telling him that she will be with him and he with her.

She suffers from such depression ! That's why she wrote the song Lithium because she is on Lithium ! At least they're back out touring , Because they took a very long Hyattis due to her depression ! She was in a serious relationship with the lead guitarist in her band , the blonde guy in the video , they broke up many years ago , And I believe she took that very hard , I believe a lot of her pain comes out in her music ! Which is true for a lot of artists including Adele !

Amy Lee’s Voice is Hauntingly Angelic. Great Song Great Vocals Great Songwriting. The Album this is from is Absolutely Amazing. NeXT Evanescence song to react to is also from Album “Fallen”. The Song is “Bring Me To Life”. It’s more in line with the rest of the early 2000’s Scene. Great Reaction as Always

Her voice in this song and "hello" always bring up some tears....

A voz da Amy Lee é linda demais🎶🤘

For me it always felt like a mother singing to the spirit of her lost child. 💔

MY IMMORTAL FOREVER

My little sister and I made a pact when this song came out to sing it at the funeral of the one that passes first. I don’t know how to explain it but we kind of have a laugh practicing it together and we know for a fact that neither of us can sing well and whomever sings it will be fighting off laughter at how bad we sound. Not to demean how beautiful this song is but I think what we are doing is making memories to battle the intense grief the remaining sister will be fighting. This song will be the love song between us.

I think she's present in spirit form in the video: she's always in an elevated position looking down on everything with reflective lyrics

This song makes me think of my grandmothers and all my aunts that I’ve lost. A lot of loss for sure

They came out in the 90’s. I lived in Little Rock and I'd have a shot waiting for her.

AMY LEE AND BEN MOODY made the band and wrote the music , for some reason he left the band and it was tragic to her and the group. THIS SONG IS SO FUCKING POWERFUL, IT'S ACTUALLY HAUNTING AND STILL GIVES ME THE CHILL'S.I figure this is what ANGEL'S SOUND LIKE..

This is a great song. Thank you.

You have a real treat in store if this is the start of your Evanescence journey on this channel! There are many live performances where she also totally dominates! No one gets near Amy then or now in terms of raw talent

Amy is an angel in video. Never touches the ground

The symbolism in this video is so telling…I heard this from another reaction which I never thought of until watching it so many times…in the video, (cause the writing process she & he did when they were young teenagers may have different meaning to them), but in the video, she is always in white (symbolizing an angel), and he is dressed in black (symbolizing a death). Another form of symbolism is the fact she never touches the ground, she is always perched up high on a tree, fountain, or a rooftop which symbolizes she is a spirit/angel. It feels like she cannot move on to the afterlife because she’s still earthbound by their love…it’s all heartbreaking…this song kills me every time I hear it.

Bring Me to Life is another good one by them. I'm also going to recommend Mia Morris: What Made You Famous? I know she's not as well known, as some of the other artists you cover, but she's super talented and does it all herself.

Her duet with Seether singing “Broken” is amazing.

Amy passed away for this song she is the ghost singing about the relationship.

They became a band in 1999 and their 1st big hit that put them on the map came out right around 2001 /2002 !?

I don't know whether you will see this comment since this video is two months old. But I just want to comment on this video. For years I thought that she was singing about a loved one that had died if you listen to the words that's the way it comes across. In all actuality she is the one that's dead. The white Gauzy dress, the bandages around her wrists, the fact that she never touches the ground throughout the whole video. I literally was floored after about fifteen years of listening to this song and seeing this video that I never picked up on that.

This song hit's my heart. this song was playing on the stereo when we got the news that i have cancer. I sat on my husband's lap and we cried. We have been together 45 plus yrs. it is hard knowing that my time is running out. Love and blessing's to you both. From Memphis Tn.

Its like a fine wine.

Amy Lee is my favorite female vocalist My Evanescence recommendations: Good Enough My Heart Is Broken Far From Heaven Your Star Lacrymosa Lost In Paradise

one of the Most Beautiful LOVE SONGS!!!! ever written!!!!!

Love this song Love her what a voice beautiful ❤...

I'd consider her voice more like Opera than gospel. Great song and great reaction 💖🦋

She's a fellow Arkansan and one of THE best singers. Her dad used to work for my company at the height of Evanescence's career. Unfortunately I never got to meet Amy. This song still gives me chills - SO powerful and delicate at the same time.

In the video, Amy never touches the ground as if to portray she feels as if she was the one that had passed, yet remains for a while and misses those she knew and loved. Her attire seems to match this sentiment as well. I understand she had recently lost her sister.

I’ve heard this many times but I never actually listened to it. One of the things I really like about your channel is that we are on opposite journeys. I like many music genres but mostly listened to Rock music. The only hip hop or rap I listened to at all were a few of Eminem’s radio hits. I actually just heard my first Tupac song a couple day’s ago. Sorry for rambling 😅 I’m just trying to say it’s fun to see you checking out rock music while I’m learning to appreciate hip hop 😎🎸

So much beauty. Amy is in my top 5 female vocalists ever. Her and Evanescence have a deep library of amazing songs. YES, they do rock!!!

this song always gives me the "feels"

Amy in this video is a spirt / angel and you notice she never touches the ground

This is a song that will.mean many things to many people. For me it was my ex wife who had mental health issues and took her life. I did all I could for her, she left me with two daughters to raise, while.her memory still haunts me even though I remarried.

Great Reaction! I was introduced to Evanescence in the early 2000's when my kids were in high school (but still needed Mom to chauffeur them around!). My take on this song/video is that she is the one who ended the relationship by suicide (ie the strips of cloth on her wrists) but she is vocalizing what her ex is feeling. If you look closely there is a scene in the video where he has walked to the place where she is walking around the fountain, and they are both looking up but apparently can't see each other. The edge of the sleeve of his black jacket is just barely visible on the far side of the screen opposite where she is at the fountain. No matter how many times I hear this song the raw feeling of loss and pain always washes over me. I have enjoyed watching your reaction videos and I look forward to seeing more of them.

The song is definitely about loss and pain;however they did a twist in the video. She is the one that is dead. Notice the wrist bandages...slit her wrists. Her feet never touch the ground. The angelic, flowing clothing. The man at the piano and walking the streets staring at the sky is the one in pain.

This song for me sounds like when you in a relationship you're still in it and invested but the other person isn't and has mental mentally checked out of the relationship but won't end it with you (( You used to captivate me by your resonating light Now, I'm bound by the life you left behind Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real There's just too much that time cannot erase When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears And I held your hand through all of these years And you still have all of me I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone But though you're still with me, I've been alone, I'm alone it's like the girl knows it's over her partner's checked out but she can't get out and move on and just end it because of the love , memories and the feelings she still has for him

Haunting

She is definitely #1 on my list of top vocalist of all time I just seen her at Rockville recently and she crushed it

Her beauty had me in a trance

Great reaction you should definitely do evanescence going under with the video her voice is outstanding

Impressive work. Well done.

the whole video been recorded in Palermo Sicily in old storic downtown

Such a pretty and strong voice

My take on this video is she is the one that passed away and is struggling because she can't ease her partners pain. If you notice she never touches the ground in any of the scenes. He is the one walking around lost and she can't help ease his pain any longer.

You need to have a Haley-Gasm like all the other reactors. React to the great Haley Reinhart with postmodern jukebox covering"Creep". 115 million views, 58 week's top of billboard jazz chart and considered one of the top 10 singing performances of all time. Haley is not just any singer, she is a master vocal technician who blow your mind using every vocal expression effortlessly and tastefully. Haley is considered the best all around female vocalist today (not singer, anyone can say) but no one could do with a leader with her vocals😢

Amy lee has one of the clearest piercing voices. Bring me to Life video is a must.

My Gawwadd that voice

I love this song, I can see it as her singing and narrating what this guy is going through after losing someone or they both lost someone and there is a connection between them. I also had an interpretation that he lost her, like she is dead and her voice is the soundtrack oh his memories and thoughts. She is walking on a waterfall thing, she is laying on a plank, laying on a roof, in a tree, on a car, she doesn't touch the ground and has wraps around her wrists so maybe she committed suicide and is an angel or a spirit lingering around and his thoughts of her won't leave him alone and he walks around distraught and depressed and feels her everywhere but she is not there and she is around from beyond the grave and is watching him but he can't see her. So many thoughts, I don't know, music is the theatre of the mind, it can be whatever you experience it as.

This is most likely in the comments already, but notice how she never touched the ground. She is the ghost that can't let go

Thanks for the reaction. This is one of Evanescence's best songs, it hit hard then and it still hits hard now. Please react to their next album - The Open Door. It's their other heavy hitting album. Maybe start with "Lithium". Peace.

that is what was called a power ballad

this is from theyr debut FALLEN, and currently they do 20th anniversary tour (for debut record Fallen) at moment =) so go gigs ppl if it comes near of u

A haunting song of the pain of losing a loved one sung by one of the greatest female vocalists of any time A complete masterpiecee With a video to match

In this music video, amy has passed away. Hence why she never touches the ground, and nobody can see her ie the kids playing ball while she's walking around the fountain and she has no reflection in the water 😊

So something I think you would appreciate. There is a famous "Jumper's photo of a woman who landed on top of a car that looks much like her in that part that if it wasn't planned it is REALLY creepy. If you're interested I'll look it up and share..

Subbed!

What a place to take the 1st pause

Always loved this song! Morissette Amon also sang this in her bedroom🔥🔥🔥

Great reaction! Amy Lee has a beautiful voice and this is a beautiful song! I was listening to talk radio when Evanescense was popular so I had never heard of them until a couple of years ago. You should react to their Bring Me to Life. The original and Amy performing with the Wagakki Band are both fantastic.

Good reaction ....

An interesting take on this song i heard from another reaction... who is really dead... her or those she is mourning... if you look hard enough Amy never touches the ground in the whole video. She is always standing or laying or sitting on something away from the solid ground.... it's as though the video is saying her own spirit has been killed by the constant loss.... just thought i would share

Amy Lee is so beautiful and talented. This song was real.

My favorite is "Going Under" great song!

This song was written about her sister that died of a drug overdose

seen Amy Lee live. looked around and there were tears everywhere! everyone knew what the song was about!

"broken" is a collab but she owns it .

Evans science still going strinv. Have been selling out arenas all over the Workd. Have recently been touring with bands like Muse, Open and Within Temptation. One of the best live bands in the world.

All rock bands have 1 or 2 heart-felt ballads. "My Immortal" was/is a great one for Evanescence. I also like the song, " Love you to Death" by Kamelot. would like to see you to do a video reaction to it.

Heads up: she is dead. Her feet never touch the ground. And the bandages on her ankles and wrists. She is expressing the grief of her husband as she can no longer express any emotions on her own.

It reminds me of my uncle

The song was written by Ben Moody the pianist in the video. It's about one his family member's passing.

Wow ! First Time ? [ she knew the words early in the song ]

I grew up with this song I still love it to this day never get tired of it, always get emotional every time I hear it. Also this song came out in '90s (1999) not 2000s however you were right when you said they were popular in the 2000s.

First time ever seeing her,i remember thinking "is she the daughter of Bruce Lee?" I was younger,easily fooling myself into believing stuff haha. But her dad is a gentleman named John Lee. Funfact: Amy Lee and Lindsey Stirling has been songwriting partners for years. Also at 13 years old,Amy met 14 year old guitarist Ben Moody in 1994 at a summer camp, where she played piano and he acoustic guitar. Thoose 2 has also been songwriting partners for years,he even co-founded Evanescence with Amy in 1995. (He departed from the band in 2003,but to my knowledge thoose 2 are still on speaking terms,continuing theyr friendship) Speaking of songwriting partners,this happened more recently: Lindsey Stirling - Love Goes On and On ft. Amy Lee of Evanescence (Official Music Video) Its a STUNNING collab! My favourite Evanescence song you ask? Evanescence - Going Under. And a song of theyrs i feel like is under appreciated compared to theyr "biggest hits" : Evanescence - Call Me When You're Sober

I’m a new subscriber, just saw them in September at a festival. I want to make a suggestion for Shinedown they put out a concept album 💿 Planet 🌎 Zero about the pandemic 😷 and are mental health. The album went to no 1 on the rock charts, and they have the record for the most no 1s singles in rock. “DEAD ☠️ DON’T DIE” gives a matrix feel. Then a slower one it has been named the best rock song about being human. A SYMPTOM OF BEING HUMAN. You won’t be disappointed Brent Smith is one of the top rock singers of the last 20 years. Thanks💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Amy lee still kills it 2023
