A friend had this play at his wifes funeral. They had found each other and were this perfect match. It was a such a joy to see them together. One night he went to bed while she was watching TV, he woke up and she wasn't in bed. He went in the living room and found her stone dead. It broke him, naturally. When this played at the funeral we all cried, and I can't hear it without thinking of them now.

Fun fact: Shaun Morgan is the reason Amy wrote the Evanescence song "Call Me When You're Sober." She was dating him at the time of this video and his drinking destroyed their relationship. It is said that when Shaun heard the song mentioned above that he checked into rehab that day.

According to Songfacts: "The idea was to write a song that if I could play it to him, that it would make him feel better. Unfortunately, I never got a chance to play it for him. So it was written just before, like a couple of weeks prior to him dying." I find that even more heartbreaking, if that's possible. Hearing his hopeful and supportive lyrics, knowing his brother never got to hear it

[@davidmccar]

I found this song after losing a family member. It’s a great song, but tugs at my heart every time I hear it.

[@NaturalChaos]

It's so easy to forget how good and impactful a song can be after you've heard it hundreds of times. That's one of the reason I love reaction videos, especially when you have people who actually know what they're talking about. It's the closest you can get to hearing a song again for the first time and get some good analysis at the same time.

Us Millennials are a strange group. We got to see the before AND after, of growing up in a rapidly evolving & violent world, & this song really encapsulates what was left of that “before” time. This was just before it all really started to change, music included. It’s so nostalgic. 💔

Im here for a Seether deep dive. Saw them supporting Staind about 15 years ago in Sheffield and have been hooked since. Such an incrddible band. The Gift would be an amazing reaction.

[@maxsiehier]

Hell yeah, Seether is often left out of the conversation about top tier grunge / rock bands, but they've been in my top 5 forever... Their acoustic recordings are phenomenal too!

[@crawdaddy2004]

Probably because they weren’t part of the Grunge Era. They didn’t release their first album until several years after Soundgarden broke up (1997). They were more part of the Post-Grunge Era - basically “grunge with cleaner vocals and guitars.”

[@Trepanation21]

Seether is definitely not "in the conversation about top tier grunge" because they came after that era. They're very comfortably in the later end of the "post-grunge" genre, which was basically simultaneous to nu-metal. However bands like Bush, Live, Silverchair, of course Foo Fighters, Collective Soul, and Candlebox are probably the foundations of "post-grunge", with additional highlights from bands like Creed and early Nickleback (can't stand them, but Leader of Men is a great song, and the first Creed album is proper excellent). Anyway.

I remember hearin this live many years ago at an Evanescence concert in Vienna. Sether was the pre-show and this song was part of their set. So Amy came on stage, half prepared for her own show in sweatpants and with half her makeup to sit down with a piano and perform this with them...magical stuff 😍

[@VoltWrangler]

The beauty of these duets is in the contrast between male and female voices. Amy's pure tones and Shaun's raspy voice are magic.

[@jsinmayes]

Amy Lee is credited for the string arrangement. You definitely hear grunge influence in Shaun"s voice. They were kind of lumped in with the new metal genre but are also considered post grunge. Post Grunge is basically a style that had a lot of the elements of grunge but a much higher production quality and a more radio ready sound and subject matter

[@peteperkins3859]

I had a gut feeling when I heard this song Amy did the arrangement. It just sounds like something she would do.

[@aarno22]

I love that you mentioned the emotional impact! This song invokes tears no matter what mood I'm in. It demands the tears be pulled out of me. I LOVE IT!

[@Beastt17]

22:16 to 22:19 in the video... that's it! That welling of emotion that we caught in Elizabeth's face, the tearing in her eyes, the half-cry, half-chuckle, the lump that is all but visible in her throat. THAT... is the greatest compliment a piece of music can receive. And yeah, I was at the same intensity of emotion at that very same place in the music.

[@liamevans9815]

"Broken" was originally written for Seether's debut album "Disclaimer" in 2002. In 2004, Shaun and Amy reworked it for this masterpiece.

[@marklnz]

I love the original too - it's cool to listen to both of them and note the differences

[@benschroeder4036]

Yeah, originally it was just a completely acoustic song. Then this version added the electric guitars and strings. I thought that Amy was the one who arranged the strings.

[@matthewcall3961]

I still prefer the original version. This one got so overplayed. It didn’t help that when I was working at Champs Sports at the time, it was on one of our videos, so I’d hear numerous times a day for about 6 weeks. Have a renewed appreciation for it, but I just like the original so much more.

[@AzkAdAsh]

The original has so much more desperation and a deeper melancholic tone due to being purely acoustic. I just can't stop listening.

[@Pjfaery]

I prefer the original too

[@LaxinPhilly]

Saw Seether play an all acoustic set at my college in Western PA, and it was right before they recorded their all acoustic album One Cold Night. The emotion of his live performance was unbelievable. You could've poured everyone into a paper cup we just melted like Elizabeth did. Highly underrated band.

[@Spannermek]

This is the reworked version, to include Amy Lee, which was released for the 2004 Punisher movie. The original was released in 2002. Morgan wrote the song about the breakup of his marriage and family, after his wife chose to remain in South Africa with their daughter rather than accompany him to live in the United States.

[@Ghyus01]

The thing that always stood out to me about this song is the dichotomy. Shaun is so raw, gritty and almost unrefined sounding. While Amy is so clean and beautiful and technical. Its like dark and light harmonizing. Its beautiful!

[@spurgeoncj42]

I LOVE that you let the beautiful parts play out, even if you rewind later.

[@IlliniDog01]

Agree. I heard and loved the Shaun only version so when the Amy Lee re-release happened it annoyed me. Mostly because I was kinda sick of her since Bring Me To Life was literally inescapble and had reached the point of being annoying. Now that I'm several years removed I can truly appreciate how amazing their harmonies sound, even if it cost the song its original rawness.

[@EJaramillo]

@@IlliniDog01I think it gives even more meaning and raw emotion to the song. Especially considering how their relationship has influenced their music.

[@eddieresendez9958]

Hey Elizabeth! The guitar effect played at (5:38) is known as a "Tremolo." It is a fun effect that rhythmically changes the volume of the guitar signal (not the pitch). You can mimic this effect, without having the proper effect, by moving the volume knob up and down at a rapid pace on an amp. Keep up the good work, I love your content!

Shaun's drawl and twang are pretty signature of Seether, and Amy's voice is both vulnerable and full at the same time. The harmonies are so pleasing to hear too. Just a solid song all around.

[@MrSheduur]

Absolute masterpiece song. Haven't heard it in a long time but it always amazes you instantly. Just beautiful. Voices are heavenly and the instrumental is so fitting too.

[@fardanx]

Whenever you see Elizabeth do this face 🥺 at the end of a song, cause she wanted it to go longer, you know it was a good song ❤

[@Uriel77200]

Been dying for you to do some Seether for years now

[@chrisparmarter8442]

Seether is CRIMINALLY underrated. One night in 2006 Shaun wasn't feeling well so he changed things up and put on an acoustic show, called One Cold Night. If you want some live songs by Seether that is a great place to start. So glad you (finally) got to one of my top 5 songs of all-time. Their cover of WHAM!'s "Careless Whisper" is too die for!

Korn ft. Amy Lee Freak on a Leash is AMAZING!! Well worth watching!!!

[@whiterabbit1824]

I was going to say that too! It’s awesome!!!

[@pharis45]

Yes, yes and YES!

[@Ghost-in-the-snow]

Definitely

[@muffalorancher]

Thissssssssssssss

[@MichelleLyn84]

Wowww nostalgia x 10

[@13_13k]

I knew Elizabeth would love Shaun's voice.

[@marccomstock5966]

OMG! I think Elizabeth showed us her "O" face at 16:50. Love your work and your analysis. Thank you for educating helping me hear music is a more enlightened way.

[@unholymunk]

I watched Seether in Durban many years ago when they were still called Saron Gas. It was an amazing show. Shaun was very humble and was amazed at the crowd reaction. It was a good show.

[@robinmarais7891]

I went to their final show at the Mercury in Cape Town before Saron Gas relocated to the United States. One of the best club gigs I've attended. It was such a wild atmosphere. I still prefer the 'Fragile' mixes to the ones on 'Disclaimer'.

[@habbyhome3054]

Saw them play as Saron Gas at Buccaneers in East London

I've been looking for this post! I think it should be pinned so more people see it. @TheCharismaticVoice

[@lover-of-fate]

This is one of my heart songs. The way they combine voice and music and emotion. Touched me deeply from the first time I heard it.

[@cyclopsboi]

seether is one of those bands that was in the background of like a decade of mainstream rock music, and their versatility is wild, also I am pretty sure this song was originally written without amy lee and she adds SO much to the song.

[@neilmajor8578]

it was originally written when they were called Saron Gas when they were still in South Africa.

[@nercksrule]

The destitution of the setting in the music video serves to amplify the message of the music.

[@TonezTone1989]

The last song I’m wasting on you by evanescence. It’s a simple piano arrangement with her vocals. It’s absolutely beautiful. And there is this trill towards the end. That is stunning. Along with experimenting with different vocal techniques. It’s beautiful.

[@KAAAARP]

seether has a lot of songs that are absolutely phenomenal and interesting to look at from a voice performance perspective. they also really stayed true to their sound over their long years of making music in my opinion.

[@brynthomas1500]

Today is me and my wife's 19th wedding anniversary, this was our first dance song at our reception, have not heard it for ages, perfect timing, many thanks.

[@trailzenmtb]

Congratulations, today is our 20th. Crazy how fast the years have gone by.

[@AaronKellar]

20 years here and it was our first dance song as well. Love it

[@protrudingranyt]

Tears of happiness on my face just from the nostalgia of this song, wanting you to listen to Seether and seeing the way you were gripped with emotion and let it play into the chorus. Seether Rocks! Love From South Africa!

[@andytheiss85]

your second Seether experience should be the song... rise above this

[@tysekimball3723]

I replied the same!!!!

[@leebaldwin7665]

The emotion in his voice whilst singing this is second only to the loss in his eyes.. a truly awesome song

[@devincrowl3891]

I love Amy Lee's voice and I love the way Elizabeth emotes when touched by music. Fcking teared me up. Yay!

[@xjustsomeguyx1554]

"Rise above this" is a must. Very powerful song. Very positive message too.

[@misatankosic1001]

Dire Straits - Brothers In Arms | REACTION..

[@HiFiListener]

Generally -Dire Straits. So much good music. 🎶

[@PHOENIXDARKFIRE5000]

Personally I prefer the walk of life by Dire Straits but it’s for more personal reason my very first proper girlfriend when I was a teenager that was our song that we first danced to. Around 35 years ago, I remember it like it was yesterday

[@C4L3D0N]

Live at money for montserat benefit show.

[@ViolentMessiah666]

Excellent choice 👍

[@davidadriance5159]

Or, Private Investigations, Love Over Gold, On Every Street, so many great choices.

[@Jubes83]

I saw them both live when seether was opening for evanescence. This song was HUGE at that time and I remember the crowd absolutely erupted when Amy came out towards the end of the set for this song. It was a great show.

[@emnope2087]

This being the first time you've heard Shaun Morgan blows my mind, but I can't be anything but happy because, giiiirl, welcome to it!! Seether will rip your heart out. 100000 recommendations to watch any of the One Cold Night sessions. He puts so much of himself into every performance.

[@taraduddy7687]

Judas Mind on Live on Sirius XM SLAPS! It's Seether's newest song. Thank you for finally doing Seether!

[@ParsoJr]

Incredible song, and how these 2 can harmonise is perfection ❤

[@kylestoddard2881]

Even 20 years later, that song gives me goosebumps! Amy Lee is epic!

[@DarkRulerHaDes666]

This song and video were incredibly popular. It was everywhere back in the day.
