I can't really see Amy singing this live, the song made me choke up just by listening. After I listened to this song, I just stopped playing the other tracks and the silence is really strange now.

i don't think this will be performed live. but if it is...the crowd had better respect it.

I don't know. I think she might perform it. She's expressed that she's moved on from her past (think Good Enough), so I think she might be ready to perform both Hello and this one.

Also, I just thought of this- she said that on every CD they've done she tried to put aside a song for her sister.

Fallen- Hello
TOD- Like You
Origin- Even In Death? (She's performed THAT one live....)

EID was about her sister? This I did not kow. i always thought it was more about loving someone as in a man kinda love. *shrugs*

This is an amazingly somber song. I think this is about the saddest Evanescence song I've heard. It's right up there with Hello and Even in Death, anyway. And Tourniquet, I suppose. (Nice observation by Draconian that EID could very well be dedicated to Amy's sister as well.) Makes me teary.

I love the beginning and how they managed to work in the guitars throughout, especially at the climax towards the end. I thought the guitar would be subtle throughout. I also like the humming she does before the "Halo..." bit. The climax portion I'm mixed on. I think her voice drops lower too quickly, and part of me thinks the "forevermore" bit is a little overdone vocally. But another part of me likes how it's just this keening cry type of thing that practically drowns out the rest of the instrumentals.

As much as I'd love to hear this live, I'm thinking it's going the road of "Hello" and might not be. As great as it would be to hear it performed, I think it'd be a big downer. But maybe she has moved on in some respect and would be able to perform the song.

From the first listen, I knew this song would be [by far] my favorite song on The Open Door.

Okay, so I haven't even heard the song yet... but those lyrics brought tears to my eyes and goosebumps that refuse to go away. Absolutely amazing.

Nah that's the necrophilia song!

This song is really touching. Well okay it made me cry a lot. It's just so sad the part where she says "I hate me for breathing without you," like she feels guilty for being the sister that lived.

rat_licker · 09-04-2006, 05:11 PM

This is the first new song I heard, and I think it's going to be my favourite.
The lyrics are... I can't explain it. It's sadder than Hello, and I think any other song I've ever heard. ::cries::

I don't know. It was just a guess. Because if she dedicates a song to her on every CD, then EID would probably be the one from Origin.
