+ OH, here's one more that i never seen in a bigger quality! (i don't know if it's real or manipulated)

[nz]

Can anyone please point me to where band members said the song they were most excited to play during this tour?

[BlackenTheDay]

This is really specific but does anyone know what that telegram-like beeping is called at the end of the Origin version of My Immortal?

It's the PERFECT white noise.

This is what's been written about it on EvReference :

At the end of the Fallen and the band versions a beeps code can be heard. This effect was used also at the end of Breathe No More and Give Unto Me. This code was believed to be a morse code, but it turned out to be a false information; this is what Ben Moody explained about it:

"It's actually a preset pattern on a keyboard synthesizer that we were using on that song. And if you sustain the note long enough, it trails off into this beeping that sounds a lot like Morse Code and we thought that it sounded really cool, so we left it. So it's there by accident, to be perfectly honest with you.[5]"

Thank you! I had a very vague memory that it was mentioned somewhere before but couldn't put my finger on it.

Not sure if I put this in the right place but the original artist has acknowledged Evanescence's live version. Shame Ev didn't record a studio version for it.

Today I was watching a YouTube video stating some Ev/Amy info, and there was a mention that Amy had come out and said that Call Me When You're Sober was about Shaun. This isn't the first time I've heard this, but I've never actually heard Amy use Shaun's name when asked about the song. I've only ever heard her say that the song could be applicable to a few different people in her life.

Does anyone know if there is an interview where Amy specifically name drops Shaun as the inspiration for the track? I've tried a few searches but haven't found anything that shows Amy noting that the song is directly about him.

There is an interview where she states that most of songs from TOD are inspired by the "turmoil" on her relationship with Shaun, but she doesn't mention his name. She is asked about him, but says "our relationship."

Thank you. That's actually the interview I was remembering the most on the topic. I feel like Shaun checking himself into rehab and talking about the song brought more attention that the song was about him than anything Amy ever said. Sometimes people talk about it like Amy was a huge bitch in the song's release but she seemed to always be extremely considerate when talking about where the song came from.

What a walk down memory lane watching that video. In some of the older interviews, especially around TOD, Amy seems so much shyer and reserved than she is now. I find it so inspiring seeing how far she's come in her confidence and believing in herself.
Also, when she talked about how she worked really hard on the second album and wanted to push herself and give her best, I teared up. TOD is my #1 of all time and that sort of solidifies why Amy has been a hero of mine through all of these years.

You're welcome!

I love how passionate she talks about creating TOD. In interviews from that era, I also feel she was shyer, reserved, and protective of her vision/art. I still think she is protective of her art/music, though she has been more open after the 2011 sessions for Ev3. The broken record was mostly her vision, and not many band members were involved at the time.

I remember when Amy was doing press before the release of Ev3, and she stated that Secret Door was originally the closing track on the standard edition, but then she woke up one day (maybe before the album went to pressing) and changed it to Swimming Home.

Does anyone remember the Italian Fansite Evanescencewebsite.org? I remember they had a huge gallery of pics and articles.

Of course, it was a legend. Evanescenceville still operates on Twitter.
Unfortunately the gallery was really HUGE and i remember that some photographer made them took a lot of photos down. (I don't know any details but it went downhill after that...)

The address is no longer available, it leads to some spam site.

[princeofpersia]

^ They've made their galleries available on their Facebook page. Not sure if it's all the photos that were on their website or not but there are quiet a lot of them there.

[arwenstar]

Thank you, Ill check out twitter and Facebook.  I also, on the Wayback Machine (Internet Archive), found the site still preserved though I can't tell if all the old content is still there.  Thanks again.
