I think it's because in the intro, the song structure moves into the relative major instead of droning on in the minor key. That, and since it's a harmonic minor (D# instead of D natural), there are a few chords in there that are usually OUT of key (ie: there's a C-Cm chord shift in the song, or at least it sounds like it. It could be C-B7, I can't tell. Too much going on in the song, and I think the D#/Eb is in the bass.) It doesn't stick to just one set of chords like so many of the songs on Fallen did (seriously: Em, G, C, D. That's pretty much all the chords in ANY song on that album. Just speaking objectively.)

Is it against the rules to give a chord progression of the song? (I can do it by ear.)

No. Not against the rules. Just a bit freakish. :P

Kinda like your avatar!

I love the song... sure it's a bit different from their previous music, but I can relate to it really well and not to mention this song is mostly in my vocal range. I love singing Evanescence's songs but sometimes Amy's voice is too high for me!

I can't wait to hear the rest of the album.

Wow really? So what's the chord progression? I would really like to play it on my acoustic guitar.

The song is great! Amy was totally right when she said that it will be something totally different.
And the line: You can't play the victim this time, is just awesome!

I agree with Dropper that it's a little bit busy in some places (it's so much more guitar than I'm used to with Ev!), but it's really growing on me. The lyrics are great (as with every Ev song, they really speak to me). Actually, they relate so well to a recent break-up...which is nice...I feel validated Most of all, I think her vocals are so much more mature...I'm dying to see the video, I'm sure it will be like nothing we've seen before!

Amazing. Amazing!

When we finally heard it, Charmed and I grabbed each other and jumped around the room like little children. Finally. After all this time...we've heard it.

It's amazing. That's the only word I can think of for it. Better than I suspected. The laugh at the end is perfect. God, I love this song.

So happy right now!!!
