usually when amy lee does a cover it's nothing short of excellent... but damn... =/

it's actually a sad time for me... such a beautiful voice, nice song, but she just couldn't pull it off....

what do you think? am i the only one that thinks it just sucks? (this of course means you know the original song she's singing)

i cant give it a thumbs up or down... as i dont really know her true potential, but i have heard korn do this song, and as far as that goes, korn takes the cake.

or should i say... cob? :stoned:

imho, she probably has more potential than any other female singer on the rock side of music (i.e. not on the rap/pop/r&b side) she even has more potential then alot of male rock singers... or male singers period.... her voice is just intoxicating... she has EXTREMELY critical control over her voice.... she's amazing, but this... just damn man i'm so disappointed...

ok, download heart shaped box, for comparison, technically that was live too... the only diffrence is one was done infront of a live audience and one in a radio station.

well she isn't kurt cobain either.... she did a damn good job on heart shaped box... she isn't chester bennington either, she did a damn good job on numb as well.... i'm not really here to argue, especially with you billion lol... i was just expecting like a total mind blowing (but diffrent) version of it... and i was greeted wtih that =/

That band always makes me laugh!

Amy Lee's voice reminds me of a 13 year-old girl singing in the shower.

thumbs down - boo!

Whether or not you like the music, you must recognize talent. If you can't do that, you must be hung up on the, "Yo mang I got dat muhsaydeez benz na'm sayn nukka".

I recognize the talent (in the band) which is why I DO like the music.
Vocalists of Amy Lee's caliber are a dime-a-dozen.
I would enjoy Evanescence much better if they were an instrumental band.

This is just my opinion - I guess I am kind of jaded on the subject of contemporary music

How come in the first post you said that you thought she sounded like a thirteen year old and it made you laugh but in the second you recognize her talent? :confused: I'm confused

It's simple:
I like the BAND (Drums, Bass, Guitars, Keyboards) but I don't care for the VOCALIST (Amy Lee)

Give me a dozen names, not including Amy's, that have her skills. Recent artists btw.

Sounds like a challenge! PayPal me a dime and I'll post the list.

Now calm down - as I said I am just stating MY opinion. If I were to provide you with such a list you would simply disagree with me (my opinion) and we could go in circles like that forever. This is a highly objective subject.
