I agree. Those people from WU have to be the most incompetent in the history of labels. When their biggest band just comes out with a new record after a long hiatus and they're supossed to do as much as they can for the band to get in the radar again, they do everything wrong. And then, when the tour and everything else is already dead and the band members are finally drinking some shots under a rock, these dumbasses decide to make yet another lyric video. Pfff...! They must be bored or something.
Anyway, i hope it helps Ev to get some airplay at least. The era ended, though, they don't have an album to promote anymore.

Yeah, I think it's way too late to even attempt a single. I think this is just a little something for the fans. Though I'd prefer to have a real music video for any song than this lyric video and the live "LIP" video. But it's still a nice thing of them to do for us. The weird thing to me though is that this appears to be more the label's doing rather than just the band's, seeing as how it was only posted to the official Facebook and Twitter. So now Wind-Up's actually concerned with making the fans happy? After the era is already over? My god, this label... I think they are just starting to realize something.. *meanwhile over at Wind-Up Records* "HEY. I'm starting to think Evanescence is a pretty popular band on our label. Seeing that they aren't making any new material anytime soon we should create a simple lyric video to keep the fans happy and possibly promote the album's sales cause they aint' giving us anything new to work with." OMG what if they release IYDM! ............... lol. It wouldn't even surprise me if Wind-Up doesn't even release it has been leaked yet. Not that I wouldn't purchase it on Itunes if it was released officially to support the band. But chya, as for the "single" debate, I am sure it's not going to be a commercial single..I wish it was.. but I am sure it's not. But nevertheless, I am happy to see something from EV. Hopefully this means more stuff and possibly maybe new stuff. AND GO THE CHANGE!!!!

Its just a lyrics video to grab our attention its just a futile attempt to stir up some interest in the effervesence camp LOL

If it is mostly Wind Up's idea (it does seem to be that way) then it could have something to do with it being their 15th anniversary. Wind Up got a pretty massive response from Evheads when they asked fans of bands on the label to share their favourite concert moments etc. recently so I think PJ may be right. It does seem like they've only just remembered that Evanescence is actually quite a popular band, haha!
Realistically I doubt much will come of it though, maybe a lyric video if we're lucky. Still, anything's possible! (:

For me, lyric videos are boring and they are so many lyric videos that you can find in YouTube! The Change and Made of Stone are promotional singles. Commercial singles? No. Wind Up wants to get money because the album/singles didn't sell as big as Fallen & The Open Door (and their singles). Wind Up is a headache to the band. They made the band sick and they made us sick. And speaking of Wind Up records giving a headache to the EvCommunity, there is a history why the label is still giving pain to us including the band.
2003: Mystary EP was released and that includes My Immortal (Mystary Ep version) on the said EP. Amy and Ben wants this version to be included on Fallen BUT Wind Up records interfered and they want the Origin version plus the strings to be included on the said album. Yeah, the Origin version made it to the album and that would make the Mystary EP version of MI as a demo to the Band version.
Back to 2013, oh God, the band is now on a hiatus and the label will release a commercial single if possible. It really confuses me and I have a lot of questions in my mind. ARGGHHH! I don't want to talk about it. No commercial singles for now. Just. . . NO.

I don't think there will be a new single, nor a music video. I think they're just doing it to keep us interested, but nothing more. A music video seems a little impossible. Aren't Will and Troy on tour?

I don't want to talk about it. No commercial singles for now. Just. . . NO. The Change was never a single. The Other Side was. Amy said she wished it would be able to be a single. The My Immortal information, we recently found out thanks to Ring, the Band Version was the version wanted to be as track 4. At least that is what the article suggests. But yes, Wind-Up has been screwing up since the beginning. Not only with MI Track 4/Band Version/Mystary Version/Origin Version/Origin Version + string = Fallen Version but with BMTL with the rap in it. And the speculated information about the band and fans wanting Imaginary to be the 4th single from Fallen but Wind-Up said the EF would be better. lostindarkparadise: I don't necessarily think they will make a music video per se. Will is on tour with Device but I think Device are now on a tour break until July. And Troy was just pictured at his father in laws Pentagon Retirement Ceremony, with his wife and son.

So tomorrow (June 6th) is when we're supposedly going to get more "details" about this lyric video, as they said on the Facebook page. Hmm.

They didn't say anything about it today? Haha I was kind of figuring that would happen before I went to work. They are probably just going to act like nothing happened and just ignore all questions about it

Typical Ev, we never get things on time. I'm sure we'll get it eventually, just not sure when...

I hope it's just delayed and that we'll get it soon, but I don't really think that we willAlthough they did say that we would only get the details on June 6th-not the lyric video. So if they forgot to give us the details-we shouldn't expect the video to come soon WU is probably the worst label ever

I guess that Evanescence has slipped further down their list of priorities (if thats possible - I thought they were at the bottom already!!)

So... All in favor of Evanescence going with a new label?
