    A friend had this play at his wifes funeral. They had found each other and were this perfect match. It was a such a joy to see them together. One night he went to bed while she was watching TV, he woke up and she wasn't in bed. He went in the living room and found her stone dead. It broke him, naturally. When this played at the funeral we all cried, and I can't hear it without thinking of them now.

      According to Songfacts: "The idea was to write a song that if I could play it to him, that it would make him feel better. Unfortunately, I never got a chance to play it for him. So it was written just before, like a couple of weeks prior to him dying."

    • @crawdaddy1234

      Probably because they weren’t part of the Grunge Era. They didn’t release their first album until several years after Soundgarden broke up (1997). They were more part of the Post-Grunge Era - basically “grunge with cleaner vocals and guitars.”

    • @Trepanation21
      @Trepanation21 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Seether is definitely not "in the conversation about top tier grunge" because they came after that era. They're very comfortably in the later end of the "post-grunge" genre, which was basically simultaneous to nu-metal. However bands like Bush, Live, Silverchair, of course Foo Fighters, Collective Soul, and Candlebox are probably the foundations of "post-grunge", with additional highlights from bands like Creed and early Nickleback (can't stand them, but Leader of Men is a great song, and the first Creed album is proper excellent). Anyway.

    Hey Elizabeth! The guitar effect played at (5:38) is known as a "Tremolo." It is a fun effect that rhythmically changes the volume of the guitar signal (not the pitch). You can mimic this effect, without having the proper effect, by moving the volume knob up and down at a rapid pace on an amp. Keep up the good work, I love your content!

    I remember hearin this live many years ago at an Evanescence concert in Vienna. Sether was the pre-show and this song was part of their set. So Amy came on stage, half prepared for her own show in sweatpants and with half her makeup to sit down with a piano and perform this with them...magical stuff 😍

      Agree. I heard and loved the Shaun only version so when the Amy Lee re-release happened it annoyed me. Mostly because I was kinda sick of her since Bring Me To Life was literally inescapble and had reached the point of being annoying. Now that I'm several years removed I can truly appreciate how amazing their harmonies sound, even if it cost the song its original rawness.

    Amy Lee is credited for the string arrangement. You definitely hear grunge influence in Shaun"s voice. They were kind of lumped in with the new metal genre but are also considered post grunge. Post Grunge is basically a style that had a lot of the elements of grunge but a much higher production quality and a more radio ready sound and subject matter

    This song was a big milestone in my life. I was an angsty, lonely 14-year-old when this song came out and was discovering hard rock and heavy metal (including Evanescence), and the way that those opening guitar chords hit me when I first saw this video is still indescribable. I remember spending a week at summer camp and listening to this song over and over on my store-brand MP3 player, relishing my solitude but also thinking about how distant and lonely I felt from my life during that week.
