This is the very song that I dedicated to my fiancée after she passed away from leukemia. Now every time I hear it, she's with me once more. Thank you both for doing this. God bless! 😇😥
Sorry for your loss, I know your pain I lost my husband 5 years ago and I play this song on our anniversary! I hope everybody has a great weekend and God bless everybody
My husband who I met in kindergarten died in 1998 at the age of 29 years old and we played the song I Will remember You by Sarah McLachlan at his funeral service. It took over 10 years to be able to listen to that song without breaking down. I'm sorry for your loss...
Bro, you acknowledging how much your Lady was there for you when you were struggling mentally and she was surprised you said that, that’s another level of gratitude, yes I shed a tear. A true man recognizes who’s his rock. Be blessed and healthy. You guys are amazing!
The first time I saw Evanescence in concert, Amy Lee performed this song alone, just her and the keyboard (“piano”) and a just a single spotlight shining on her. I stood there crying like a baby. 😭 ❤️
The song is based on a short story by former guitarist Ben Moody. Paraphrasing here: It’s about a spirit that stays with a loved one after death but not going away. Yet wishing it would leave.
Guys it's about her younger sister who passed away tragically really young. But this song can be taken in many different contexts, so it can definitely be a break up song, loss of a friend or friendship, loss of other family members. It's about grief. But she wrote this for her sister.
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.
I played this at my daughter's funeral. She passed from Fentanyl almost 6 years ago. I'm STILL trying to figure out (6 years later) how to live the rest of my life without her in it. I have 3 sons, and I adore them, but I want to be with my daughter so badly. Death no longer scares me because I KNOW we'll meet again. My faith is all I have left. I've given all of my pain over to my God. I have to....to maintain my sanity..😢💔
Hey God is good he is never going to give you more than you can take i never use fentanyl or heroin but i meet people with a bright future as your daughter and this evil drug just taken away but i hope God is healing your heart and now your guardian angel 😇 is taking care of you and your family peace 🕊️ blessings 🙏 love ❤️ God loves you
Please react to The carpenters - ticket to ride The carpenters - only yesterday The carpenters - top of the world The carpenters - Please Mr postman The carpenters - hurting each other The carpenters - sing The carpenters - yesterday once more The carpenters - close to you The carpenters - we've only just begun
The only thing better than Karen Carpenter's voice was her drumming! John Bonham called her the best drummer of all time (a title usually given to him)
Amy is supposed to be a ghost, that's why she's always above the ground throughout this video, it's beautiful and creative and captures the melancholy of the song, and the black and white enhances that vibe even more, i love it, kind of an underrated rock classic from Evanescence.
@@wanderlustaesthete4117 You are correct. The father of the man playing piano had died. He & Amy wrote the song together, but most of the words are his.
I always took it as she was a ghost after falling from the ledge in Bring Me To Life, she is even laying on a car's roof, like that is where she landed.
When she was young it was silly good. As she's aged she's gotten better. That's stupid for sure. Most rock singers don't get better as they age. They start losing bits and pieces of their voices. After 18+ years with he style you don't get better. You get worse over time. She didn't. As one Critic said, "It's unfair what Amy can do vocally. She actually getting better and better. It makes us mortals look bad. And does Amy ever age! To look like her and be that talented? Just not fair at all." Maybe her greatest gift is harmonizing with herself. Some times singing 2, 3 and 4 parts layered on top of each other. It's creates and amazing sound.
Her voice is the best im scared she belts too much tho after going to her concert it wasnt as great as i thought it would be the mics sounded aweful and the venue was hopefully the issue but she has a great voice i sang this song for a musical audition in high school after i sang a phantom of opera song .
This song always makes me cry. My Immortal, my late husband who battled, struggled with addiction, and finally lost his battle in 2018. Always in my heart. I hope that finally, your precious soul is at peace, Babe.
I lost my bf to suicide in May 2002. Everytime I hear this I cry even now. She portrays perfectly the haunting sorrow with her voice, the rage with the rock portion, the angst and inability to escape with her lyrics. I'm glad you reacted to this.
This song is simply glorious, her greatest, and that is saying a lot because all her songs are amazing. Going Under, Lithium, Call Me When You're Sober, Everybody's Fool...react to them all.
Great reaction guys. I’m pretty sure she’s singing about her little sister who passed away 😞 it is a very emotional song. 👋🏼🙌🏼👍🏼👏🏼💜🇨🇦 P.S. never apologize for getting emotional on your reaction channel.
Agreed, Getting a little emotional just means the song really hit home as it was intended. Many of us have had some mental stuff happen in our lives, the important thing is we came out on the other side a better, more understanding person more in touch with society and with respect for everyone. You should never feel you have to keep this stuff a secret, it doesn't make you less of a person.
In "My Immortal", Lee expresses her feelings through the line, "Though you're still with me / I've been alone all along." A writer for IGN said that "'My Immortal' is a song of pain and despair caused by the loss of a family member or very close friend and how it drove her [Lee] to the edge of insanity." her little sister died when they were younger
I got to see them play live last month... And she still sounds just as good as she did almost 20 years ago! Also if y'all didn't know she's also the one that plays the piano
This song means so much to me. Everytime I hear it I think about Alex, he passed away in 2010, he was an amazing man. I'm happy we had 7 amazing years together. He is my guardian angel now.
I'm so sorry for your loss. Your story got to me that I had to reply. I too know loss. It's so strange, bittersweet and yet so beautiful that in loss we feel a deep sadness and yet we also still feel a happiness and love that they still make us feel and their memories bring up the warm life that can never be matched more than the cold after. Continue on
I LOVE your reactions & analysis. She has the most enchanting ethereal voice ever. I get chills every single time and literally had chills throughout especially watching your reactions. ❤ 😇
There is a band called Seether that has a song featuring Amy Lee. It's called "Broken". The voice of their lead singer, Shaun Morgan, is a perfect pairing with Amy Lee. I know you like live videos, but in this case I recommend the official video so you don't miss any part of the song. Good news is, you don't have to wait for a Female Friday, since it is a duet with a male! Also, I know y'all really liked Halestorm when you reacted to them/her and I just found a duet they did with Amy Lee called "Break In'. I think you will like it.
Her voice and the lyrics kill me every time I listen to this song…I literally cry every time I hear this song. One of the MOST beautiful songs ever written, if not, the BEST!
I dedicated this song to my first love at the age of 15 and he passed away in a car accident during our Christmas break from high school. I love you always Santos! 💛 I'm so happy you guys reacted to this song cause it is definitely my favorite!
This was the song I chose for my husband's funeral & for the funeral of one of our daughter's. They died EXACTLY 2yrs apart TO THE DAY.. I'm literally balling my eyes out, but I always do when i hear this song or when I play it on the piano. Everybody, please keep your loved ones very close to you & tell them you love them bc you never ever know how long you've got left with them💕🙏💕🙏
Love this guys, if you like 'amy lee' then you really should listen to 'nightwish - love ghost score' for a future female friday, 'floor jansen' another amazing female vocalist keep up the good work guys much love
I'm 50 years old. Just discovered Amber and Rob. I know and love most of the songs you two discover and your reaction to these songs lifts me to tears of joy often. Love that you both appreciate good music so much, keep it up !
I'm going to be one of those downer guys. I have always loved Amy Lee's voice and this song in particular over the years. Back in January I lost my youngest daughter and now when I hear certain lines of the lyrics in this song I immediately tear up. It's a beautiful song done by a talented beautiful lady ♥
You need to listen to Floor Jansen of Nightwish. Check out Ghost Love Score live in Wacken 2013. Beautiful Awesome and will be good for both of you. Has a little of everything
One of my favourite songs. If you like this I bet you'll love 'Broken by Seether feat. Amy Lee'. Back in the day the frontman of Seether and Amy Lee had a relationship, a destructive on (she wrote 'call me when you're sober' for a reason). That song is a ballad too, and I can hardly choose which song I like the most, both are outstanding.
Amy Lee is fantastic. This song is my favorite- so emotional. Another band with a female vocalist is Nightwish. Their vocalist Floor Jansen is insanely good. She does everything from death growls to operatic soaring vocals. She sings in multiple languages and just about every genre. Put her on the list for female friday you wont regret it. A good starting point is "Ghost Love Score". If you like blues music check out Beth Hart "Am I the One" Live at Paradiso. OMG - what a performance!
Still waiting on Nightwish: Ghost Love Score. It can fall under the female Friday category easily or any other day. It’s a musical ride you will not want to get off of.
Amy wrote this (and a few other equally heartbreaking and beautiful songs - "Hello", "Like You", etc.) about her younger sister who died when they were both really young (Amy's sister was around 3 when she passed, Amy was about 5 or 6 and I think the oldest sibling). The grief is so deep in this song, and that deep sadness runs through a lot of Evanescence's lyrics. This is one of those songs that brings everyone to the verge of tears, whether they relate to the grief of a lost loved one, the grief of a lost love/relationship, or not. It's transcendant; up there with Sinéad O'Connor's "Nothing Compares 2 U" - another beautifully tragic song that was (to Sinead) about a lost family member and was about a lost relationship to the songwriter (Prince).
this song has always been soul piercing. in my past i lived exactly what this song says. driving one day alone and had this song on repeat and couldnt stop crying
TO Robert g,so sorry for the loss of your lovely girl,but she's an angel and Amy of evanescence;is got the voice of 1!and b happy u had her young man,God bless Alan in Scotland
Amy Lee is a great singer, But if you want to go next level check out Nightwish- Ghost Love Score video from Wacken 2013. I think Floor Jansen will blow your mind like she did mine.
There are so many ways that this song can be interpreted. For me personally... this song hit me hard after my daughter passed away. I held her hand throughout her life, wiped her tears.. and when she was diagnosed with cancer in December of 2017 - I spent the last 3 months of her life in and out of the hospital always by her side. She passed away on March 18, 2018. This song (in my opinion) really expresses the empty feeling you have inside after a traumatic loss. I know my daughter lives on inside me.. but what I wouldn't give to just hear her voice.. her laugh.. or to have one of her hugs. Rest well my sweet angel Rebecca 06/13/1986 - 03/18/2018 I will love you always
This and “Hello” were written for Amy’s sister who she tragically lost when they were kids. If you really want to complete the picture please react to “Hello” and you will understand what drives Amy. By the way, Amy is also a world class pianist
@@corbenikgaming7688 No, her sister died at the age of 3. It was an unidentified illness. Either way, this song was written by Ben Moody about the loss of his grandfather. The song that was written for her sister is Hello.
You should give Brandi Carlile a chance, not many people react to her but she’s amazing! Try “Party of One” ft Sam Smith their voices put together along with the piano and the strings it’s insanely beautiful.
Thanks man for you being so open about the time in your life when you felt low mentally. I'm fifty and I have suffered with depression,anxiety and low self confidence most of my adult life. Also your videos help to cheer me up in a nostalgic way when you react to the rock music I listened to during my eighties teenage years. You say that we, your viewers, are blessed. I KNOW that I am blessed everytime I view your reaction videos as they cheer me up when I'm feeling down. It's great that although you love each other as husband and wife you still have extra love for your viewers and care that we are cheered up when we view you.
If you think Amy Lee is impressive, you really should listen to Floor Jansen and Nightwish "Ghost Love Score" from the Wakken 2013 festival in Germany.
Love Amy Lee... but seriously you guys need to react to Nightwish ghost love score live a wacken... if Amy Lee is a ghostly Angel... Floor Jansen is a Valkyrian shield maiden... you must must react to this on a Female Friday!!!!!
I appreciate your frankness on mental health issues. I’ve been suffering with major depression for decades and yet to find any kind of relief but I’m still pushing.
Nightwish "Ghost Love Score" is incredible. And on female Friday this will give Rob a more rockin female Friday! Floor Jansen is the female lead. It is often debated who is the greatest female voice in rock...Floor Jansen or Amy Lee. My opinion Floor has the edge, but they are both great. And Nightwish is an incredible band. th-cam.com/video/JYjIlHWBAVo/w-d-xo.html
I would consider Floor to be Symphonic metal and Amy to be Pop Rock.. But the best heavy metal singer is Doro Pesch of Warlock....check out the song "All We Are"!!!
I'm sitting here in a ball of tears...struggling to find that light at the end of the tunnel, but watching you admit to your own issues with mental health makes me feel that I'm not completely alone. Thanks for that.
This gets to me. I know my friend. It may seem that way because of separation but we're not alone in feeling and hopefully somehow and someway we'll all share healing and happiness.
Jay, you are NOT alone. I have battled the pain for decades, but there is always love and light. Need to talk? Hit me up anytime. That’s what the Rob Squad is about, love for one another.
I have had mental health and emotional struggles in the past, as most people will confront at some point in their life. The part of this song that always makes me cry is the "I've been alone, I'm alone!" part. Even though I am now in a very happy place, that still touches me. When I was is that dark place, a friend told me that I was "wrapped in a cloak of love and support that I did not even know was there. Take comfort from its warmth, for one day the sun will shine again and you will forget you ever needed it." It's true, the only time I remember the cloak is when I tell other's of its existence. Many, many people support you without you even knowing about it. The sun will shine again. Be patient and love yourself.
Nobody does it quite like our Amy. She is absolutely amazing, beautiful, and uniquely talented as a singer/songwriter/performer. God bless her and thank you both for another wonderful reaction. Music of this calibre needs great reactions like yours.
She has one of the most beautiful voices I’ve ever heard… So Rare and So Talented… I can’t wait to hear what she does next… (not to mention she herself is Beautiful, nice to know the package matches the Soul)… I’m a Total Fan of Her… Her voice melts Souls…. XoXo
The two of you are why I so enjoy watching your reaction videos. It has always been apparent that you have a deep love for each other and you're very supportive of each other. It just shows in your interactions with each other. So it was cool to see the vulnerability expressed in this video. Authenticity. Love it...
Opinions man. I like Nightwish and Floor (and Tarja for that matter), but I still prefer Amy Lee. Nightwish is definitely a band I would like to see live rather than listen to on my various devices, I think I only have 3 of their songs on my playlists, the rest just seem better to watch the videos or attend if you can.
@wyomarine In the US it's almost like a religion to only like that which is from own soil, that's probably the main reason why most modern music sucks big time.
I've been listening to her song "My Heart Is Broken". Husband and I just found out that our babies heartbeat had stopped and it stopped growing. Please be thinking of us! Love you guys!
This was actually written by her band mate Ben Moody when ne was 17. He wrote it after losing his grandfather who had raised him. Ben is the guy in the video.
The most hauntingly beautiful voice I have ever heard. I recommend "Speak to Me," a song she did for a movie soundtrack. Absolutely powerful. Love you guys!
When this song came out, I had lost residential custody of my children. I lived in Virginia and my kids were in Kansas. My youngest was 5 years old and this became our song. When I was missing her I'd play this and she did too. One day on the phone she said, "Mom I can't listen to it because I cry when I hear it because I miss you." I was like, "It's okay baby, I don't want you to be sad and cry. Find a happier song to listen to." Now she's 25 and when we hear the song we both tear up and hold each other.
I'd like to make a suggestion for Female Fridays, Loreena McKennitt, she's a Canadian singer-songwriter, whose music is often described as Celtic-oriented, I find it ranges from folksy to medieval, and can be almost a time-machine. Check out her song "Dante's Prayer", it's from her 1997 album, 'Book of Secrets'. Her voice is really on display in this song, a vibrant soprano with a great range. Much of her music also features mainly acoustic strings, like violins, cellos, harps (Loreena plays the harp, among many instruments) & piano, and woodwinds like flutes & recorders, accordions, basically anything traditional and acoustic. Enjoy. -Mark
Do you want a new favorite female vocalist?? If you haven't already reacted to either her solo stuff, ou've got to check out one of the top tier female rock/metal vocalists, Floor Jansen. She's the current singer for the symphonic metal band Nightwish. Easily one of the best active singers in the world today
Female fronted groups.... In this moment The pretty reckless Nightwish....2013 wacken concert start with ghost love score but whole concert is the bomb
Amy is a great singer, but if you really want to be blown away check out some Nightwish if you have'nt yet. Their lead singer Floor Jansen is the best female lead in all of rocknroll....actually she is the best vocalist period. Start with ghost love score live from Waken open air 2013. I promice that you will be amazed
If you are enjoying Evanescence so much you should honestly check out Within Temptation, they are also a female fronted rock/metal band with such haunting voice and powerful lyrics. Would love to see what you guys think of them!
EVANESCENCE can truly draw out emotions. Hopefully soon you get to experience Floor Jansen of NIGHTWISH. I recommend starting with "Ghost Love Score" live at Wacken Open Air (2013)
we all love our Amy Lee, have you heard of "Nightwish"? and their vocalist Floor Jansen? give Ghost love score live at waken 2013 a try, I think you'll love it, Floor has her own stuff as well, dig your vids guys.

So sorry
I'm so sorry Robert, I hope you're okay now and that she is watching over you from Heaven ♥♥♥♥♥
I am happy for the love you shared with her and sorry for the loss of her. I hope her memory can bring some measure of comfort. HS
So sorry to hear that.
Sorry for your loss, I know your pain I lost my husband 5 years ago and I play this song on our anniversary! I hope everybody has a great weekend and God bless everybody
This song has so much meaning. My husband of 47 years passed away in September. He struggled with PTSD and depression. I was his caretaker.
I care for my husband, he has many cronic illinesses. Caregiving isnt the easiest job, its a labor of love. I can't imagine your loss.
That was me in 2003, and I'm so damn sorry, you don't deserve this. Here if you need me.
My husband who I met in kindergarten died in 1998 at the age of 29 years old and we played the song I Will remember You by Sarah McLachlan at his funeral service. It took over 10 years to be able to listen to that song without breaking down.

I’m crying now
There's a video of that....and I cried my eyes out!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘🎵🎼🎶🎸🎧🥁💜💜💜
Same. Seeing her do this solo live choked me up so badly! And watching the two of you react put me right back there.
Wish I’d been there too🥲
Amy's voice is just beautiful. She did this song for her sister, who passed away.
No this was for the guy who was playing the piano. It’s a break up song. But the song hello is about her sister

This is it!! Thanks for an awesome explanation!
this was for her sister who died some years before.
@GuiltFreeWhiteManI know we look and sound very alike. Lol
The loved one was her younger sister who passed away.
Maybe try Alannah Miles, Black Velvet. It is a slow bluesy song about Elvis Presley.
Sultry and sexy...so good.
It's a kind of funny, because Willie Nelson told her 'Never loose that country feeling' while this song was indeed bluesy :)
Great suggestion, and Black Velvet is such a great song.❤️
Please do this.
I used to love singing this song in the bar for karaoke. ❤️😁
Amy sang a duet on the song "Broken" by the band "Seether", which is also really good & worth a reaction.
YES!
YES!!! i was juat thinking they should react to that song!!
Love that song.
Yes!
Yep.. do it!!!
I played this at my daughter's funeral. She passed from Fentanyl almost 6 years ago. I'm STILL trying to figure out (6 years later) how to live the rest of my life without her in it.

I can't imagine, Heather. Best wishes to and all of yours.
Oh, I am so sorry you've had to go through, and live such raw pain... 🖤
I'm so sorry, much love, light, and blessings sent your way! 🙏💛🕯
May the Dear Lord bless you and take your pain from you. I can't imagine.....
This is a gorgeous song. For a female singer with perfect pitch…check out The Carpenters 👍👍
Karen Carpenter- BEAUTIFUL contralto voice! So clear, pure and RICH tones. Check out early live"Close to you" video where she sings AND drums!
They have to have Karen on female Friday. Her voice does to me what Amy Winehouse's does to Jay 🎶🎵

God analogy ….tortured angel …
A siren I like it too
Now do Lzzy Hale featuring Amy Lee - Break In - Two Powerful women's voices together for a beautiful song.
This, without question one of the best female duets ever
Beautiful song
Agreed. Beautiful duet.
Agreed. They should also hit Halestorm's "Familiar Taste Of Poison".
YES!!
This song always makes me cry. My Immortal, my late husband who battled, struggled with addiction, and finally lost his battle in 2018. Always in my heart. I hope that finally, your precious soul is at peace, Babe.
The song "Sober" is awesome. Amy Lee's voice in the song is outstanding!
Call Me When You're Sober it's called, but yes it's awesome!
@@ctyreman11 ^this
Call me when you're sober
For one of your Female Fridays, please do Nightwish Ghost Love Score live at Wacken….trust me… it is EPIC
I've been trying for months to get them to listen....
I lost my bf to suicide in May 2002. Everytime I hear this I cry even now. She portrays perfectly the haunting sorrow with her voice, the rage with the rock portion, the angst and inability to escape with her lyrics. I'm glad you reacted to this.
I’m so sorry… Amy’s voice has something so hauntingly beautiful
So sorry 😞
I absolutely adore Amy Lee
Not her lyrics. Ben Moody's lyrics.
Oh boy, Amber isn't gonna make it through this lol. Great choice you guys - peace and love!
This song is simply glorious, her greatest, and that is saying a lot because all her songs are amazing.
Going Under, Lithium, Call Me When You're Sober, Everybody's Fool...react to them all.
All of these!! but I love *call me when your sober* is her ultimate I am done!!!
Check out her Aftermath album.
My favorite is imaginary
Yesss! Love all of those so so much!
@@aimeerisch4059 great song as well 👌🏻
I’m 50 years old & this is one of the most poignant & beautiful songs I’ve ever heard.

True... Lee added her feels to the song that was written by Moody (guitarist), dedicated to his grandfather.
aww
The song about her sister is called Hello
You two really really need to listen to Ghost Love Score by Nightwish, Wakken 2013 with Flor Jensen singing.....IT WILL BLOW YOU AWAY!!!!
This song NEVER fails to bring me to tears - one of my all-time favorites. Exquisite!
You guys love Amy Lee, so you need to listen to her duet with Seether "Broken". You won't be disappointed
Yes!!! I came here to mention Call Me When You’re Sober, but Broken for sure!!! So incredible
Oh I love Broken!!!
That was on the Punisher soundtrack
Yes yes yes, I was thinking they should listen to the duet as well!
they were a couple too
In "My Immortal", Lee expresses her feelings through the line, "Though you're still with me / I've been alone all along." A writer for IGN said that "'My Immortal' is a song of pain and despair caused by the loss of a family member or very close friend and how it drove her [Lee] to the edge of insanity." her little sister died when they were younger
Thank you. My youngest son died in a car accident when he was only 24. This song still just amazes me, at least from this old man's viewpoint.....
@@guidosarducci I'm sorry for your loss
@@ASLLover666 Thank you..........
I got to see them play live last month... And she still sounds just as good as she did almost 20 years ago! Also if y'all didn't know she's also the one that plays the piano
this has brought many MALE reactors to tears, that's how powerful it is.
Well, they're humans, men don't cry?
@@n3493 they do, but some feel insecure about it. They feel like they have to hide their emotions.
This song means so much to me. Everytime I hear it I think about Alex, he passed away in 2010, he was an amazing man. I'm happy we had 7 amazing years together. He is my guardian angel now.
I'm so sorry for your loss. Your story got to me that I had to reply. I too know loss. It's so strange, bittersweet and yet so beautiful that in loss we feel a deep sadness and yet we also still feel a happiness and love that they still make us feel and their memories bring up the warm life that can never be matched more than the cold after. Continue on
Much love to you. My husband passed unexpectedly in December 2018 and I still feel off kilter 3 1/2 years later.
I LOVE your reactions & analysis. She has the most enchanting ethereal voice ever. I get chills every single time and literally had chills throughout especially watching your reactions. ❤ 😇
There is a band called Seether that has a song featuring Amy Lee. It's called "Broken". The voice of their lead singer, Shaun Morgan, is a perfect pairing with Amy Lee. I know you like live videos, but in this case I recommend the official video so you don't miss any part of the song. Good news is, you don't have to wait for a Female Friday, since it is a duet with a male! Also, I know y'all really liked Halestorm when you reacted to them/her and I just found a duet they did with Amy Lee called "Break In'. I think you will like it.
2nd this one Broken as a duet is amazing and if you thought the duet on bring me to life was something wait till you hear this one
second this! Seether is great! Well... Seether is pretty good but his song is great.
Yes!! React to Broken!!!
Broken is amazing! They so need to hear it!
Her voice and the lyrics kill me every time I listen to this song…I literally cry every time I hear this song. One of the MOST beautiful songs ever written, if not, the BEST!
I dedicated this song to my first love at the age of 15 and he passed away in a car accident during our Christmas break from high school. I love you always Santos! 💛 I'm so happy you guys reacted to this song cause it is definitely my favorite!
🙏💔🕯💛
This was the song I chose for my husband's funeral & for the funeral of one of our daughter's. They died EXACTLY 2yrs apart TO THE DAY.. I'm literally balling my eyes out, but I always do when i hear this song or when I play it on the piano. Everybody, please keep your loved ones very close to you & tell them you love them bc you never ever know how long you've got left with them💕🙏💕🙏
I am so sorry 😭
@@andreadeamon6419 ~Thank you so very much💕🙏
I am so sorry for your losses. I lost my husband and son(only child) 3 years apart so I know your heartache. Sending you tight hugs
I am so sorry and you are right.....hold your loved ones close! God bless and keep you 🙏
@@frandistabile4723 God bless you 🙏 so sorry for your loss 💜
Love this guys, if you like 'amy lee' then you really should listen to 'nightwish - love ghost score' for a future female friday, 'floor jansen' another amazing female vocalist keep up the good work guys much love
Yes this!!! Do the live version from Wakken Open Air Music Festival!!
Absolutely!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ghost love score live at Wacken
YES.
Nightwish "Ghost Love Score" Live at Wacken 2013 is AMAZING with Floor Jansen!!
I'm 50 years old. Just discovered Amber and Rob. I know and love most of the songs you two discover and your reaction to these songs lifts me to tears of joy often. Love that you both appreciate good music so much, keep it up !
I'm going to be one of those downer guys. I have always loved Amy Lee's voice and this song in particular over the years. Back in January I lost my youngest daughter and now when I hear certain lines of the lyrics in this song I immediately tear up. It's a beautiful song done by a talented beautiful lady ♥
You need to listen to Floor Jansen of Nightwish. Check out Ghost Love Score live in Wacken 2013. Beautiful Awesome and will be good for both of you. Has a little of everything
One of my favorite songs just a powerful voice, Ms. Amy Lee.
One of my favourite songs. If you like this I bet you'll love 'Broken by Seether feat. Amy Lee'. Back in the day the frontman of Seether and Amy Lee had a relationship, a destructive on (she wrote 'call me when you're sober' for a reason). That song is a ballad too, and I can hardly choose which song I like the most, both are outstanding.
Yes, please!
This 🙌🏻 definitely!!
YES!!👌👌👌👌
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Brandi Carlile “The Story”
Melissa Etheridge “I’m The Only One”
and Sinéad O’Connor’s version of Prince’s song “Nothing Compares 2 U”
It's NOT a falsetto, it's a soprano voice and an amazingly nice one too.
Amy Lee is fantastic. This song is my favorite- so emotional.
Another band with a female vocalist is Nightwish. Their vocalist Floor Jansen is insanely good. She does everything from death growls to operatic soaring vocals. She sings in multiple languages and just about every genre. Put her on the list for female friday you wont regret it. A good starting point is "Ghost Love Score".
If you like blues music check out Beth Hart "Am I the One" Live at Paradiso. OMG - what a performance!
Still waiting on Nightwish: Ghost Love Score. It can fall under the female Friday category easily or any other day. It’s a musical ride you will not want to get off of.
I've been suggesting this for a few weeks. I'm hoping they'll get to it soon
I agree they should do Ghost Love Score, it is kind of hard for Rob, and a beautiful voice
They got to react to that soon right... cannot wait to see Amber's reaction to Ghost love score... I know Jay will be blown away too!
I'm going to have to bring out the big guns #nightwisharmy.... engage....
Amy wrote this (and a few other equally heartbreaking and beautiful songs - "Hello", "Like You", etc.) about her younger sister who died when they were both really young (Amy's sister was around 3 when she passed, Amy was about 5 or 6 and I think the oldest sibling). The grief is so deep in this song, and that deep sadness runs through a lot of Evanescence's lyrics. This is one of those songs that brings everyone to the verge of tears, whether they relate to the grief of a lost loved one, the grief of a lost love/relationship, or not. It's transcendant; up there with Sinéad O'Connor's "Nothing Compares 2 U" - another beautifully tragic song that was (to Sinead) about a lost family member and was about a lost relationship to the songwriter (Prince).
"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"
That line gets me crying every time.
Not the lyrics though
Ohhh Amber girl! Close your eyes and sway all you want. I love sitting and listening to a stream just like that. Its soul cleansing and therapeutic!!
this song has always been soul piercing. in my past i lived exactly what this song says. driving one day alone and had this song on repeat and couldnt stop crying
If you love this. You need to check out Nightwish, ghost love score(live at Wacken 2013). You won't regret it.
Melissa etheridge, "I'm the only one'... If you like a growly voice she's got it down!
Yes please
THAT'S ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVS!!!! I'm 31yrs old & I learned that song wen i was like 6yrs old bcc my mom loved it lol
YESSSS
YES!!! She is a bad ass female rock singer.
Yes!! Such a great female to female love song! 💘
Only Amy Lee and Karen Carpenter kick me right in the soul when they sing. True feels
Evanescence - Going Under.
Nightwish…Floor Jansen….Ghost Love Score…just saying 🔥🔥🔥😎🤘
TO Robert g,so sorry for the loss of your lovely girl,but she's an angel and Amy of evanescence;is got the voice of 1!and b happy u had her young man,God bless Alan in Scotland
I was hoping you’d react to her again!!!! She’s absolutely amazing!!!! One of my singing idols for sure!!!
Amy Lee is a great singer, But if you want to go next level check out Nightwish- Ghost Love Score video from Wacken 2013. I think Floor Jansen will blow your mind like she did mine.
Might be my favourite of your videos. Coming back for it for the 3rd or 4th time and still getting shivers.
Love the song of course.
There are so many ways that this song can be interpreted. For me personally... this song hit me hard after my daughter passed away. I held her hand throughout her life, wiped her tears.. and when she was diagnosed with cancer in December of 2017 - I spent the last 3 months of her life in and out of the hospital always by her side. She passed away on March 18, 2018. This song (in my opinion) really expresses the empty feeling you have inside after a traumatic loss. I know my daughter lives on inside me.. but what I wouldn't give to just hear her voice.. her laugh.. or to have one of her hugs. Rest well my sweet angel Rebecca 06/13/1986 - 03/18/2018 I will love you always
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
One of the best female voices in rock today.
More by Evanescence to check out.
Call Me When Your Sober, Wasted On You, Use My Voice,Better Without You
Yes to all of these
yess!!!! these
Did you listen to "good enough"? I love it!!
Also October
Sweet sacrifice too
You two are awesome. You recognize the passion and integrity of a song like no other. I love your insight. God bless you both!
This and “Hello” were written for Amy’s sister who she tragically lost when they were kids. If you really want to complete the picture please react to “Hello” and you will understand what drives Amy. By the way, Amy is also a world class pianist
If I remember right I think I heard that her sister committed suicide but I could be wrong.
And "Like You", too, I think.
WRONG SONG! It was for Ben Moony, look it up.
Amy is just world class..
@@corbenikgaming7688 No, her sister died at the age of 3. It was an unidentified illness. Either way, this song was written by Ben Moody about the loss of his grandfather. The song that was written for her sister is Hello.
You should give Brandi Carlile a chance, not many people react to her but she’s amazing! Try “Party of One” ft Sam Smith their voices put together along with the piano and the strings it’s insanely beautiful.
Brandi Carlile. YES! She won a Grammy for her song The Joke
The Story by Brandi Carlile is another outstanding choice
@@Spiralsinto Yes! I love her, and I could literally count on on my hands the number of reactions on TH-cam, unfortunately. Missing out y’all!
Yes.
“The Joke”
“The Story”
YES Brandi Carlile: The Joke, and Josephine are two favorites out of many. What a voice and the harmony with the two brothers= Beautiful!
Thanks man for you being so open about the time in your life when you felt low mentally. I'm fifty and I have suffered with depression,anxiety and low self confidence most of my adult life. Also your videos help to cheer me up in a nostalgic way when you react to the rock music I listened to during my eighties teenage years. You say that we, your viewers, are blessed. I KNOW that I am blessed everytime I view your reaction videos as they cheer me up when I'm feeling down. It's great that although you love each other as husband and wife you still have extra love for your viewers and care that we are cheered up when we view you.
If you think Amy Lee is impressive, you really should listen to Floor Jansen and Nightwish "Ghost Love Score" from the Wakken 2013 festival in Germany.
Love Amy Lee... but seriously you guys need to react to Nightwish ghost love score live a wacken... if Amy Lee is a ghostly Angel... Floor Jansen is a Valkyrian shield maiden... you must must react to this on a Female Friday!!!!!
I appreciate your frankness on mental health issues. I’ve been suffering with major depression for decades and yet to find any kind of relief but I’m still pushing.
Nightwish "Ghost Love Score" is incredible. And on female Friday this will give Rob a more rockin female Friday! Floor Jansen is the female lead. It is often debated who is the greatest female voice in rock...Floor Jansen or Amy Lee. My opinion Floor has the edge, but they are both great. And Nightwish is an incredible band.
th-cam.com/video/JYjIlHWBAVo/w-d-xo.html
2nd that performance very much....just awesome
Really seconded! Please. If you guys love Amy Lee you're going to ADORE Floor!
@@elizabethlundin3112 Amy Lee was my favorite female vocalist until I first heard the Goddess that is Floor Jansen.
I would consider Floor to be Symphonic metal and Amy to be Pop Rock.. But the best heavy metal singer is Doro Pesch of Warlock....check out the song "All We Are"!!!
I respectfully disagree. Amy Lee is an absolute goddess. It is pretty close though so I can't fault your taste. :)
I'm sitting here in a ball of tears...struggling to find that light at the end of the tunnel, but watching you admit to your own issues with mental health makes me feel that I'm not completely alone. Thanks for that.
Hold on there, you're not alone in pain. Kilometers away, still I know what you feel.
This gets to me. I know my friend. It may seem that way because of separation but we're not alone in feeling and hopefully somehow and someway we'll all share healing and happiness.
Jay, you are NOT alone. I have battled the pain for decades, but there is always love and light. Need to talk? Hit me up anytime. That’s what the Rob Squad is about, love for one another.
I have had mental health and emotional struggles in the past, as most people will confront at some point in their life. The part of this song that always makes me cry is the "I've been alone, I'm alone!" part. Even though I am now in a very happy place, that still touches me. When I was is that dark place, a friend told me that I was "wrapped in a cloak of love and support that I did not even know was there. Take comfort from its warmth, for one day the sun will shine again and you will forget you ever needed it." It's true, the only time I remember the cloak is when I tell other's of its existence. Many, many people support you without you even knowing about it. The sun will shine again. Be patient and love yourself.
We all have issues 💔 The key is to hold on. One step at a time. We will see the light at the end of the tunnel ! Keep holding on!
Her singing this live with the audience takes it to another level. She's amazing x
Nobody does it quite like our Amy. She is absolutely amazing, beautiful, and uniquely talented as a singer/songwriter/performer. God bless her and thank you both for another wonderful reaction. Music of this calibre needs great reactions like yours.
She has one of the most beautiful voices I’ve ever heard… So Rare and So Talented… I can’t wait to hear what she does next… (not to mention she herself is Beautiful, nice to know the package matches the Soul)… I’m a Total Fan of Her… Her voice melts Souls…. XoXo
The two of you are why I so enjoy watching your reaction videos. It has always been apparent that you have a deep love for each other and you're very supportive of each other. It just shows in your interactions with each other. So it was cool to see the vulnerability expressed in this video. Authenticity. Love it...
The first song I've heard from Evanescence and I loved it ever since.
That song is a masterpiece. Simply "immortal"!
Now, guys, you should try "Going under" AND "LITHIUM".
Definently going under
AND "Good Enough!!"
I was fortunate to see amy and the band in concert,she rose from under the stage playing the piano,so cool,such a great vocalist
This song will make you tear up.
When you guys listen to Lithium by her you will hear pure raw emotion and power blended perfectly together ...
This. React to Lithium.
"there's just too much that time cannot erase".....wow
Amy Lee is nice, but she ain't no Floor Jansen.
Check out Nightwish, 'Ghost Love Score' live at Wacken.
Opinions man. I like Nightwish and Floor (and Tarja for that matter), but I still prefer Amy Lee. Nightwish is definitely a band I would like to see live rather than listen to on my various devices, I think I only have 3 of their songs on my playlists, the rest just seem better to watch the videos or attend if you can.
@wyomarine In the US it's almost like a religion to only like that which is from own soil, that's probably the main reason why most modern music sucks big time.
@@peet4921 us music industry has a checklist...... a narrow box, into which all metal bands should fit.....
If you like Amy Lee, you should check a band called Nightwish fronted by an awesome vocallist name Floor Jansen
Every time I hear Amy Lee sing she brings me to tears every time
I've been listening to her song "My Heart Is Broken". Husband and I just found out that our babies heartbeat had stopped and it stopped growing. Please be thinking of us! Love you guys!
❤️
I'm so sorry 😭 sending love your way
May God bless and protect you in this difficult time. 😪🙏
@RG prayers 🙏 ❤
My prayers are with you🙏🏼🙏🏼
I may be wrong, but I believe this is about and for Amy Lee’s sister who died at a young age. Her spirit is always with her and haunts her.
I've heard that too...hence 'My Immortal.'
This was actually written by her band mate Ben Moody when ne was 17. He wrote it after losing his grandfather who had raised him. Ben is the guy in the video.
I believe the song about her sister is called Hello
The most hauntingly beautiful voice I have ever heard. I recommend "Speak to Me," a song she did for a movie soundtrack. Absolutely powerful. Love you guys!
When this song came out, I had lost residential custody of my children. I lived in Virginia and my kids were in Kansas. My youngest was 5 years old and this became our song. When I was missing her I'd play this and she did too. One day on the phone she said, "Mom I can't listen to it because I cry when I hear it because I miss you." I was like, "It's okay baby, I don't want you to be sad and cry. Find a happier song to listen to." Now she's 25 and when we hear the song we both tear up and hold each other.
I'd like to make a suggestion for Female Fridays, Loreena McKennitt, she's a Canadian singer-songwriter, whose music is often described as Celtic-oriented, I find it ranges from folksy to medieval, and can be almost a time-machine. Check out her song "Dante's Prayer", it's from her 1997 album, 'Book of Secrets'. Her voice is really on display in this song, a vibrant soprano with a great range. Much of her music also features mainly acoustic strings, like violins, cellos, harps (Loreena plays the harp, among many instruments) & piano, and woodwinds like flutes & recorders, accordions, basically anything traditional and acoustic. Enjoy.
-Mark
I'm partial to The Highway Man myself.
The Lady of Shallott is also gorgeous. Anything by Loreena McKennitt is hauntingly beautiful.
Mummers dance is a great one as well.
I'm pretty sure Amy Lee is Opera trained so that's why she can hit all those crazy and haunting notes
Do you want a new favorite female vocalist?? If you haven't already reacted to either her solo stuff, ou've got to check out one of the top tier female rock/metal vocalists, Floor Jansen. She's the current singer for the symphonic metal band Nightwish. Easily one of the best active singers in the world today
Amy Lee is The Best, FJ sucks...
for female friday, may I suggest Nightwish, any song but live
The beautiful Amy Lee, hard to believe it's been so long since this song came out.
Female fronted groups....
In this moment
The pretty reckless
Nightwish....2013 wacken concert start with ghost love score but whole concert is the bomb
Amy is a great singer, but if you really want to be blown away check out some Nightwish if you have'nt yet. Their lead singer Floor Jansen is the best female lead in all of rocknroll....actually she is the best vocalist period. Start with ghost love score live from Waken open air 2013. I promice that you will be amazed
That song hits in the feels every time
If you are enjoying Evanescence so much you should honestly check out Within Temptation, they are also a female fronted rock/metal band with such haunting voice and powerful lyrics. Would love to see what you guys think of them!
Need to try Angels if they didn’t
EVANESCENCE can truly draw out emotions. Hopefully soon you get to experience Floor Jansen of NIGHTWISH. I recommend starting with "Ghost Love Score" live at Wacken Open Air (2013)
Possibly the most beautiful song of all time. Certainly in that discussion.
Nightwish. Floor Jansen. Ghost love score if you havent already heard it.
Wait until you hear Nightwish “Ghost Love Score” from Wakken Open outdoor festival. Female lead singer, Floor Jansen, will blow you away!!!
This song makes me bawl every time
we all love our Amy Lee, have you heard of "Nightwish"? and their vocalist Floor Jansen? give Ghost love score live at waken 2013 a try, I think you'll love it, Floor has her own stuff as well, dig your vids guys.
