The voice that could melt a diamond
The lyrics the voice the tune wow what a beautiful combination, if I could award this more than 5 stars I would. To be honest with you I fist heard of evanescence when I went to see Daredevil and this song was on the soundtrack, my good friend found a CD by an unknown group called Evansecence and while we were in our local CD shop he literaly thrust the album "fallen" under my nose and said "don't argue just buy it" next thing you know I am sitting at home listening to the song that I consider now to be one of my if not the all time favourite song. My personal favourite version is the original but opinions vary. Do yourselves a favour buy this I have the album and still buy the singles when they are released. Incidentally my father died a couple of years ago and this song helped me with my grief in a big way. Enjoy.


My Immortal Rocks!!
When I first heard this I had it playing in the back of my head and one of my close friends had gotten hurt and was crying a little - so I had the lyric "When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears" stuck in my head. My Immortal is close to my favorite Evanescence song (Immaginary is creeping closer). Now I can sing it all the way through on my own. Lovely song. I don't have this single, but I do have Fallen and I love each song. .


Immortal
It saved Evanescence from one-dimentionality. This song took me completely by surprise. This song is the most unabashedly poetic and heartfelt piece of music played on the radio in years. The magnificent orchestra arrangement heard on the album version, Amy Lee's hauntingly beautiful and mourning vocals (which are basically an F-U to everyone who says she can't sing), and the subtle, yet piercing, emotion in the song all prove how good Evanescence really is. Any doubts I had about them were obliterated upon hearing this song. By far the best song of 2004. If you don't have the album, buy this. It has the "Band Version" which is basically the radio edit, and the beautiful album version, which is even more gently haunting. In a year of countless, horrible songs played constantly on the radio, Evanescence released a song that was actually that, a "song". And a damn awesome one at that. Go Evanescence!!.


My Immortal (or) Unrequited Love

In case you didn't get it, My Immortal is a song
about unrequited love--I'm sure. The Canadian got the review right (23_FEB_04).


Beautiful song
Amy Lee's voice is superb here and it's a shame she's wasting her time singing rock songs when she's better suited for ballads. Considering I think their album is one of the most overrated ones of 2003, I'm surprised I actually love this song. Excellent song from an overrated band.
