[@irenerbustos]

She has one, but she thinks she isn't good at tech stuff.

[@miguelromero9189]

@@irenerbustos on the contrary, she s quite good at that. Actually, all of her songs start off just her and her pro tools. Sometimes I wish we could get “demo version” of their songs just to see the electronical landscape on which they re built upon. I think what she doesn’t control is social media and so on.

[@brandimunguia]

Amy’s humor is self deprecating. Meanwhile there are millions of us out here wishing we looked like her and had just an ounce of her talent.

[@youthisreadwrong2274]

I just imagined she cosplaying lady d and I gave my brain a huge handshake (?)

- "im cooler than i thought i was" there's that self-depricating she talked about.

[@claudiamaidana04]

haha yeah

[@AnnaLVajda]

That's why I can't take quizs like that. If you ask me how my friends describe me I would just think ask them I don't know what they think. Also I can't choose from a bunch of albums if I have not heard all of them. It's like cheating on a quiz.

She and Hayley live in the same city.

[@BlueSky-uh3vt]

Nop. Evanescence is dark. Paramore is happy rock\pop

[@saphiro007]

@@BlueSky-uh3vt did you watch the same video I did? Because Amy Lee did a fantastic cover of “The Only Exception”. Also, Amy is more than just “dark”, and one dimensional. There is a vastness to her music! For example, look up the song “Imperfection” by Evanescence.

[@rionka]

I just read on Reddit that in the open door era Paramore opened for Evanescence in France once 🧡🧡🧡 they definitely have some in common, including a part of their fanbase!

[@chelsiekolkman8631]

A collab would be so dang epic! That’s something I would like to see!

for real. I've never seen her up close before now but I knew exactly who she would've been even without the title. might also help that she was my only celebrity crush when I was a kid.

and of course Hayley would take the same exam and finds out she's an Evanescence lol

[@FlyingJustToFall]

Still looks like she hasn't passed 30 yet. STUNNING

[@calebandrelek2971]

Yeah she seems like one of those people who look like she is 30 up to 50 then all of a sudden look like 100+ But I guess it's better that then what some others look alike. Such as Britney Spears, Gaga, etc. They all look old as hell itself. Gaga looked cute then like shit in her 20s already like she is 60+.
