EVANESCENCE - BRING ME BACK TO LIFE | REACTION

[@Sarahlaguiri]

This was immensely popular just around the time my husband died in 2003. I felt lost and dead inside, and the song seemed to sum it up. Seventeen years later, all is well, and I'm no longer lost.

[@just_Janet]

I am so sorry Sarah, glad you aren't lost anymore...it takes so much time!

[@Sarahlaguiri]

@@just_Janet Thank you, Janet. It does indeed, but I've been very fortunate.

[@just_Janet]

@@Sarahlaguiri This makes my heart glad!

[@TNT-dp2jq]

Wow Sarah...my husband passed in May 2003 as well. This song resonated with me too.

[@Sarahlaguiri]

@@TNT-dp2jq I hope that you, too, have gone on to find happiness eventually. Yup, May 2003 exactly. Pancreatic cancer is a bastard.

[@itsme-un6bs]

best voice i EVER heard, male or female. Lithium, Anywhere, October...really any song.

[@gunsmoke6230]

And she’s stunningly beautiful!

[@usgator]

This was one of the songs I used to get me pumped before raids. After experiencing combat, I felt like there was a part inside of me that had never been acknowledge. “Wake me up”, wake up my fighter side. “Don’t let me die here.” It’s hard to describe but there’s a part inside that most people don’t know they have. A part inside me woke up. Normal life is boring compared to combat. If you want an affirmation of life, live through a firefight.

[@snax087]

"Call me when you're sober" and "Going Under" are two great tracks as well

[@EDMEMC]

Totally agree.

[@luvski1863]

Sweet sacrifice n lithium another good one n so on

[@bethannprather1462]

Agreed... The acoustic version of "sober" is friggin awesome

[@janethornton4306]

100 percent agree! I also love Haunted!

[@HoneySmacks653]

So is together again, my last breath, taking over me, Tournaquiet, all that I'm living for, going under, Lacrymosa, Everybody's fool, and Haunted

[@dionshare7103]

Yes. You've got to go down the rabbit hole with this band. So you can really appreciate that voice.

[@howardgriffith71]

Evanescence is an incredible band Amy Lee's from a different planet one of the best voices in rock and roll keep up the great video Jamal

Yep...me too

[@erich4647]

The crazy part was she was only like 22 when she did this song. Her voice seems much more mature.

[@thatsovanessa]

I know! When I was younger watching this as a 12 year old I thought she was like 40, she sounds and looks so mature

[@SoloRenegade]

Amy has said she felt she was 40 when she was about 20. old soul

[@kellyhazelett139]

That’s because she was trained as an opera singer. You will never hear a more beautiful voice

[@jamesreding6336]

The voice is what makes this song great

It was her dream. Makes me cry every time.

[@jamesnorthup7717]

Can't go wrong with Evanescence, every song is good

[@lgbass]

Outstanding! You gotta do "Broken" by Seether featuring Amy Lee. A must hear!

[@nukchuu1]

I SECOND THIS.. BROKEN IS A FKIN GREAT SONG! but Amy Lee sould sing the dictionary and make it sound great

[@Jihavoh777]

I remember sitting in the theater for Daredevil and this song came on.. I instantly got chills. It was what I was dying to hear for ages but no one quite pulled off until Evanescence...and then radio played the F out of it 💁🏻‍♂️🤣🤣

[@heathermorrison1674]

Just to help you rest easy, the idea that you have a heart attack in falling dreams is an urban legend. They are scary but won't kill you.

[@Amazonianmidwestern]

I do LOVE the reaction videos. She was 18 back then, too.

[@christineparmley2096]

Amy Lee. what a powerful and courageous woman. Had the opportunity to meet her and she is truly authentic, and the band as well. Thank you for this.

[@gloucesterdavid]

Bring Me To Life dropped a week or so before I left for Iraq in 2003, it helped get me through that first deployment and several more and has helped me with my adjustments back to some semblance of a normal life. Thank you for doing a reaction for it.

[@thistlegal2154]

THANK YOU for your service!

[@thistlegal2154]

THANK YOU not enough to say for all our vets have done, gone through,etc but it is said from my heart

[@Johnny82Utah]

Still get goosebumps 15 years later...

[@kathys6402]

Just a note, the male singer, Paul McCoy, was on loan from the band 12 Stones. You may want to take a listen to them as well, 12 Stones "Broken" official video is a good start for them.

[@angelika_munkastrap4634]

This was the song that introduced me to Evanescence, still just as much a fan. Every song was better than the one before it, Amy is such a story teller, you feel everything

[@Starrysong]

This was the first song I ever heard by Evanescence. It is one of my all-time favorite songs.

[@arleneirizarry8468]

This whole album is freaking awesome!!!😜😍🤟

[@CrystalPrelude]

I remember back in the early 2000s VH1 and MTV still played music videos late at night. I'd sit up some nights and watch and listen. This was one of those videos that I always hoped would come on. Good memories.

[@sharonannsharonann260]

What a haunting, powerful message and band. Love to watch you watch. Keep on Rockin. Peace.

[@jeffdains9063]

Seether's "Broken" feat. Amy Lee was unbelievable as well. A must listen.

[@EDMEMC]

Amazing song!!

What happened ? HE DROPPED HER !!! LIKE A BAD HABIT !!! She is amazing singer, lyricist !!! The band, you're righf. Rocks !!! Got to meet her and the band at a show here in Pittsburgh. Great people !! Great music. Thanks for your reaction and sympathy to my favorite. RUSH !!! and Neil Peart !!! Stay safe !!!

The male was the lead singer from the band 12 Stones and they were amazing as well! Lie To Me was one of My favorites by them. I suggest you give them a listen! Great music!

[@bawitback]

the whole Fallen album is worth listening to.

[@EDMEMC]

I remember vividly the first time I heard this song. It gave me the chills. I have probably listen to it on my iPod 200 times without exaggeration. They have an amazing collection. I agree you should react to the duet on Broken.

[@ChlooJamx3]

i loved this!! her name is Amy Lee and her voice is beautiful, check out Evanescence - Good Enough you can really appreciate her voice in it!

[@lauriem9319]

My favorite of theirs! ❤

[@brianwilson2194]

"The hell happened!" I about died. Man, I love your reactions. I can watch you do these all day.

[@kevincarrigan6348]

Jamel, if you dig this track, you should hear her w/ the Wagakki (traditional Japanese instruments) Band, & an orchestra (in Japan) doin this same track. Obviously a slightly different arrangement, But just as good in its own way, AWESOME !!! Dude you gotta get some knowledge about WGB !! Incredible !!!!!

[@Phantom_binovirex8974]

The daredevil soundtrack was pretty kick ass back in the day

[@Trish0871]

"Caught In The Rain" by Revis!

[@ldy2hzlft1111]

Omgosh..scrolling this morning and..i need to hear her beautiful voice

[@brettfincher3332]

She has a powerful and haunting voice. The lyrics are awesome that reach out to anyone who has struggled with anything that they were having serious doubts that they could accomplish. To feeling empty inside without the one you love and feeling empty in a way alot of people can relate to and feel haunted without them.

[@rosanajaquez3274]

I love her rendition of Mozart's Lacrymosa.

[@Goodborni]

Best female singer to exist... insanely underrated.. you should listen to her live sessions man.. her voice is insane she even worked with a Vocal trainer that worked with Prince and MJ and other big names. She is special

I saw them years ago in Little Rock, Arkansas before they got famous. I had a female friend that wold make me take her to their shows when they was in town.

[@stevenmathis5003]

You mention the song going along so well with her voice. Ben Moody is the brains behind a lot of the music. Great song writer. Sound was never quite the same after his exit. We Are the Fallen more evidence of his brilliance.

[@crazycutecatlady33]

This song was made for the movie Daredevil back in the early 2000's

[@neolithiumproduction]

I fell in love with Evanescence thanks to this song and music video. Saw it on tv and instantly fell in love. I have a weakness for dueling voices of a man and woman. Example, I love the song Nymphetamine by Cradle of Filth simply because of the beautiful female voice mixed in with the gruff male voice. ^^'

brother i just wanna say i love your reaction videos. you keep an open mind and thats whats important

You get my sub just for being authentic. Most reactors would have played it off like they never heard it before. Also I like that you do not stop the song 15 times and just a couple.

[@ooO0VicariouS0Ooo]

I've got good news: she's alive. It was fun to see your face watching the video, you were really inside! Just a detail: the title is "Bring me to life", not "bring me back to life" ;-)

[@robertshulenberger]

When it comes to Evanescence, may I suggest "Call me when you're sober," "Tourniquet," and "Lithium." The guy in this song singing with her is from the band 12 Stones; his name is Paul "Something" (I'm sorry, I've forgotten his last name..) Upon research, I found out his name is Paul McCoy from the band 12 Stones 1:55 I've heard that about dreams too though, that's weird.

[@vickieray]

Robert Shulenberger yes!! Call me when you’re sober!!

[@1bulletaway]

Little fun fact: The label originally wanted Chester from Linkin Park to do that part, but they couldn't make it happen. Paul jokingly said he'd do it, they called him a week later and put him on a flight to go record his part.

[@sara.d.hendersonmy3girls869]

All great tunes

[@browncoat13]

@@1bulletaway Amy originally didn't have a male part in the song. She had to write it in when the label forced her to add a male singer.

@@browncoat13 And they no longer use a male singer in concert, according to Amy.

[@TheeHuntMusic]

Yep. When it came out, it was their big smash hit. Pretty amazing vocals. Cool reaction

[@ThelemicMagick]

Quite an iconic pop song. A simple, but catchy three-chord ditty, floating on the nu-metal craze of that era. Combine that with easy lyrics that appeal to 'misunderstood' kids / teen angst and a hit record is born. That cringy 'rap' style breakdown still manages to put a big smile on my face. A fun, occasional listen. :)

[@f688xt6]

This entire album was good. Start to finish. A must have in a collection.

It’s One Of Those Rare Moments In Rock When Sounds Collide & 💥

Dude, serious fear of heights here, creeps me out, still love this song and video! Love and agree with all your reactions Jamel!!

[@brianpederson8661]

It's actually Evanescence + Paul McCoy of 12Stones as a guest on the other vocal part, and the members surrounding Amy have varied through the years, but this and My Immortal from the first album got into the Daredevil soundtrack, got the exposure, and introduced us to how magical the voice and music of Amy Lee could be.

[@jeffkubik5452]

The climbing up the side of the building the falling off the side of the building that was all the big dream she was dreaming that she woke up from a dream climb the side of the building and eventually fell off the side of the building. The lead singer's name is Amy Lee, she has an amazing voice. This was a good reaction to the video and I would love to hear you do some more Evanescence if you could possibly "my tourniquet" or "call me when You're sober"

[@montrelouisebohon-harris7023]

My Girl!! I've got a couple favorite rock and roll hardest to or females: Stevie Nicks, Pat Benatar, Ann Wilson, & Amy Lee!!! This woman is the bomb and is actually a classical pianist. Amy is like a modern-day Freddie Mercury because she's a classical pianist but rock and roll singer in a rock and roll band. Love her!! Her voice isn't as good as Freddie Mercury then she doesn't have the vibrato ( most do not & none that I can think of) and technique that he had but she still damn good. Stevie Nicks has an awesome chest vibrato that is unique to her and I've never heard anybody else do that before. Stevie Nicks is my number one and Amy Lee is my second favorite rock and roll female star.
