Alright, this will sound SUPER cheesy so bare with me, but it's true and it's why I imagine the video a certain way...
When the album first came out, I was flying somewhere out of state and quickly downloaded it before leaving for the airport so the first time I heard the song was through earbuds on an airplane, at night, and we were above the clouds, so if you looked out the window, you could see clouds below us. It was gorgeous, and there was a bit of a storm going on outside too but not enough that it was scary. It matched the music perfectly, and I put it on repeat, because I couldn't get enough of it and it was so soothing and I fell asleep.
So now every time I hear the song, I think about flying above the clouds at night with a purplish/grayish stormy sky. I can't think of it any other way. (Until I see the video, because it probably won't be how I imagine it. LOL)

A while back I edited fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/469827_3764749523696_1425371649_33403981_354986460_o.jpg this image, my representation of "Lost in Paradise"
I suppose that somewhat represents my idea, her wandering through a paradise-like forest, very beautiful scenery. But she's alone, and lost. Maybe some rain, perhaps? Maybe an autumn-like Lithium thing. The scenery cuts between her wandering in the forest, her paradise, and her performing with the band in an acoustic setting, no audience, just playing.

I am still hoping for water and underwater mirrors. I'm not gonna lie, I always secretly hope the videos will be wet n' wild, hehehe. I don't care if they do it too much, I luff the watery scenes.

Ma turn ;D
My version would start with a camera sweeping over an ocean on a cloudy day with the rain falling. Then the view switches to the inside of a house full of personal belongings, photographs and evidence of a happy, settled life. Amy's sitting by a window playing a grand piano and looking out over the sea whilst the rain falls and she starts singing. She's playing but staring out of the window longingly. Once the first verse has finished and the instrumental starts she closes her eyes and the audience is transported into her daydream.
The walls of the house start to fade away and before long she's alone with her piano and surrounded by an endless ocean. The rain begins to change, sparkle and swirl around her as the sky turns to a starry night sky. As she sings the words :"lost in paradise" and the band comes in the sea erupts around her and the scene then switches between her playing piano amongst the waves and Terry, Tim, Will and Troy playing in a poorly lit, empty concert hall throughout the song.
As she sings "They won't let me go!" The sea moves upwards around her in a spiral then falls down upon her. "Till I have nothing left and all all I feel is this cruel wanting" in the final chorus it suddenly switches back to the band in the concert hall and Amy's with them this time, the whole space is illuminated in a blinding light and suddenly the floor and balcony is filled with thousands of screaming fans.
As the guitars fade out on the last chorus, the light slowly fades to black leaving only Amy and her piano illuminated. The light then begins to return around her and she finds herself alone in the room of the house where she started, staring out across the ocean, "paradise".
:L I may have got slightly carried away again.

I'm thinking of an ocean. And of course, there will be a piano in there somewhere... Maybe she'll wear a white dress. And the guys will be rocking out in a jungle near the beach. Exactly ! <3 This my dream LIP video.

i doubt we are getting a video. Amy said they were gonna film it during this break, so far nothing. Also considering ev will be finished this album cycle in like 2 months, there is no time to have it edited. as history would serve us, it takes about a month and half for their videos to be released after filming. so why release a promotional video for a tour that is almost over. I really hope im wrong but ya logically i dont think we will be getting another video for this album...

I was thinking about Amy with the ribbons in her hair sitting at the piano underwater in the middle of the deep dark lake playing while some torn pieces of veils are floating around her and little fluorescent fish and glowing octopi everywhere... Outside near the lake there is a big stage and Evanescence live show on it. And then the storm and rain at the band just like at that canceled show in US recently but no "run away!" here, just rocking in the raindrops with flying hair... then they'll finish the track and then everything slowly dissolves in water with those little glowing fish and octopi... I doubt very much that we will see the real video, but dreaming about it is beautiful... Alright, this will sound SUPER cheesy so bare with me, but it's true and it's why I imagine the video a certain way... When the album first came out, I was flying somewhere out of state and quickly downloaded it before leaving for the airport so the first time I heard the song was through earbuds on an airplane, at night, and we were above the clouds, so if you looked out the window, you could see clouds below us.

So now every time I hear the song, I think about flying above the clouds at night with a purplish/grayish stormy sky. I can't think of it any other way. (Until I see the video, because it probably won't be how I imagine it. LOL) Wow, this is magical. And so real.

I'm also starting to lose hope. We've been waiting for months since LiP was announced as the next single with a video and we still have nothing. I'll never see my magical forest, fireflies, butterflies and all the other weird things that appear in my head when I listen to the song :/

I could go for some falling, mirrors, water, while laying down and yelling and screaming at a camera 😝

I think they will-they're not on their break yet and let Amy have some time to be creative-if she doesn't Ev is probably gonna be less successful, they are now making promises they better not let us down, I hope Ev starts to pick up it feels like they are now dying just after they were so alive

I've also been thinking that we're probably not going to get a video... Amy herself isn't sure about what is a single and what isn't, and what will get a video. I never wanted LIP to be a single, but ever since they started talking about it getting a video the idea grew on me and it's such a waste if this great song doesn't get one.

Well Amy said were getting a video-and she knows how much everyone loves this song-the disappointment would be horrible if we don't get it
