"We originally called the track 'Tuna Afternoon', because I made tuna noodle casserole that day. We still call the song 'Tuna Afternoon.' Sometimes it's hard to get past that working title."

I swear her voice reaches Deep into my chest, touches my heart. She is one of the greatest singers alive to me... And this is coming from a 41 year old Black guy from the Brick Bronx😎

[@Cal90208]

They’re still great 👍🏻

[@jeroenquartier7126]

The intensity of this song is enormous. It finds resonance not only on the surface, but also in the dephts, it gets the soul going.

[@rubyhuanosta1467]

The open door album is a freaking gem!

[@jollymukherjee8421]

Amy Lee is a goddess of rock.. All the melancholy, sadness, negativity, depression in her songs are very very relatable to the real world... Lol

[@patrickpersianni5314]

the tuna fish is singing in a tuna afternoon. quack. quack. quack.

[@ember-brandt]

Fuck. Knowing the words made that 10000x creepier, lol. I had this album when it first came out and never understood that part. I guess because it's so... innocent, yet warped and twisted?

[@jamesmusisca8442]

i'm glad they made this song like this a sad song but it rocks out the words and music just flow and it hits the mark it's kind of like she knows you

She said in a interview that in the Master CD this song is actually entitled as Tuna Afternoon

[@RuruFIN]

Amy's voice is just so wonderful. I love her.

[@Arak_Drakoniz]

In my opinion, this is their best song. 3:34 - 3:54 the best part of the song

[@RhizanthellaSlateri]

Okay, I'ma be honest, that opening scared me a lot growing up and listening to this album. Knowing what she's actually saying there now does not make it any less unsettling. XD

[@Slow1337ex]

reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally underrated

[@ashleykallabat4851]

I think this song will help me find someone, a long lost friend, perhaps... bless Evanescence

Did you find him /her?

Simply perfect!

[@jaylinnrivas1633]

I know this song is suppose to be sad, but I can't help laughing at the first part XD (that tuna fish is weird XD) I keep repeating it over and over

[@Scyclo]

I know this comment is 4 years old but she said in an interview that she was eating tuna when writing this song. Which is why the tuna afternoon thing is in the song. Kinda funny and weird at the same time but eh it's Amy Lee. Anything she does is like amazing

[@omnise]

"all the tuna fish are singing, in the tuna afternoon"

[@alexie101010]

Yeah. Usually the same person sings all the harmonies. Sometimes singers will have others sing lower or higher harmonies, but this song is only Amy. Love it. She's so talented.

[@klesee4737]

Thanks Luna dish bringing a cold afternoon. It's still cold. >:)

[@hollyb9193]

Check out Floor Jansen singing Ghost Love Score with Nightwish live in Wakken 2013 , vocals will blow you away

[@lydelle02]

her music knows no boundaries

[@Thebostyman2707]

Amy lee is the best , she is very spiritually aware . She talks about looking into the eyes of the world buneath you. I have seen what she's talking about. The unknown live among us. You'll become their sacrifice if you look into the eyes. What die that mean anyone know?

[@eileengalvin4201]

Maybe it means if you look into the eyes of a demon or your demons you'll become a slave to them. That they'll control you

[@menahealing]

It can also mean that looking in the eyes is connecting with their soul, so just don't look into the eyes of someone who is beneath you (someone who brought you pain, have hurt you). So if you look in their eyes you fall down with them, to the same old pain. Just move on and rise with the light of Heaven.

Best song from Open Door.

Look at the songs with Ben and see the diffirence. Amy is awesome but Ben was awesome too

[@youtubeisnotajob4103]

@@qLenHoodS Ben had some solid and a music style we r more accustomed to. I seamlessly fell in love with the falen album(my first ever album I heard and liked all song from) But Amy's music is more orchestral and she makes it such that she is the spotlight. It's like coffee, takes time to get used to, but when u do, it's beautiful and addictive.
