Filthy or Gorgeous

I don't like this song but I really hope somehow it becomes a hit. Their releases are so messed up, the dates, NO promotion... Has Wind Up given up on this band? This era could've been much stronger, Lithium or Weight Of The World for the lead single. Lithium isn't as radio friendly as Call Me When You're Sober, but since it's the first single people would hear it anyway. And it's such a good song, what a WASTE! Fallen had the obvious best singles, but the singles on TOD don't do the album justice. Good Enough is no My Immortal, it's not strong enough to put the focus on Evanescence again after 2 flop singles. I love the intro of the song. It's better than most Top 40 c**p, but I hate this is the last single from this great album. :( You know what's totally ridiculous? Wind-Up contacted the evanescence.it forum and demanded they take off all the info and pics from the video. They sure as hell aren't totally dead, why are they focusing their attention on petty stuff like that instead of actually promoting them?

That definitely hurt. The video was out, people were probably requesting the song, but the song wasn't even added sent to the radio by Wind Up. It's such a waste. It's incredibly YET commercial. It doesn't have a chance now, Lithium is old and the hype is gone. In fact, less than 0.03 million people heard the song in the US this week. AWFUL.

I'm a fan of "Nevermind" as well. ;) Sales don't matter to me but I want one of my favorite bands to be successful cause they deserve it. I'm just saying, I don't see how TOD is much (if it all) heavier than Fallen. It's not that different. It's more advanced but not THAT different. If you're implying I'm a false fan then you're wrong. I'm a fan just like you if not bigger. I think that if you forget about Ben Moody and the rapping parts on Bring Me To Life and just listen to Fallen, your opinion of it won't be as bad. Most songs are very well written.

I agree, but the same Evanescence feeling is just there even when the songs are slightly different. You can tell it's the same people who did Fallen. It's not the huge change they made from Origin to Fallen. And no guys, they're doing well but yes, underperforming. Sales are lower nowadays but they're still not topping the charts like they used to. They actually stayed in the top 50 (or was it top 10?) with Fallen for over a year, I think. Hopefully "Sweet Sacrifice" will help.

It's one of the few songs on this album that actually remind me of one of those people AMy was supposedly inspired by - Bjork. It's a mixture of Bjork and Fallen Evanescence. With less vocal effects which I hate, it would have been great. More of that sound but with raw vocals for the next LP would be nice.

The Open Door is a grower. What songs do you like? Grimly, I don't like Ben although he is a great writer. Amy and Ben are a great combination when it comes to writing. The Open Door isn't very diferent fron Fallen except lyrically maybe... yet yu're making it seem like I'm comparing a Pink Floyd album to a Paris Hilton album. :lol: You'd probably like Going Under, Tourniquet, Hello (which is BRILLIANT lyrically, better than Like You), Taking Over me, etc. if they were on TOD. Most songs on this album are VERY Evanescence.

My CMWYS? That song sucks. Lithium is by far the best track. Vocally, lyrically, musically, how you get drawn into it after 3 seconds, I love it. It's much deeper than SWQ and people loved Lithium (even though it failed), so SWQ's problem is not the lyrics. It is better than CMWYS and Sweet Sacrifice lyrically, though. I'm also surprised you like it so much because you hate Fallen and it sounds like a Fallen track. I agree SWQ could have been a great song. I don't like when vocal effects are overused. The verses just drag. Actually it was my favorite song off the album when I first heard it. I haven't had the CD for 2-3 weeks and when I made that post I was totally bored by it. Now when I listen to it, I like it again. Just not single material.

She gained some weight but she looks very different nowadays regardless. 2003 Amy: http://azilosamambaias.weblogger.terra.com.br/img/amy-lee.jpg 2006 Amy: http://www.casafree.com/modules/xcgal/albums/userpics/27748/normal_aim-interview-amy-lee-poster.jpg

Where the hell is their best song ever by far, Everybody's Fool? I can't believe Whisper and Haunted which were not even released are performed. They should also perform BMTL. No one cares if it was a "Ben song" Amy, it made you big and you should stick to it. I'm not a huge fan of the song but you can't just ditch the song that made most of the fans, fans. That's like Britney Spears without "Baby One More Time." They should have done some songs from Origin too... like 2. That album did exist and it had some of their best songs. Still a great show, I'm sure. :D Just very disappointed about Everybody's Fool.

It is not a mindblowing success like Fallen either. It's not flopping but it's underperforming.

YES! YES! YES! It's honestly the best song they could've chosen.

ATILF is a better single choice than SWQ. Neither one is particulary good but ATILF is at least catchy. Snow White Queen just drags on and on and her voice is too edited and annoying. BUT "Good Enough" is the worst choice! :lol: I'm shocked it will be a single.

Dear God. YS, TOO, LY, Lacrymosa, CN, SS would all be better singles. The worst songs on the album are the singles save for Lithium. They used to know what the singles should be much better with Fallen.

You're taking what I said way too seriously. She definitely gained weight in my opinion. Didn't bash her for it. It's not just these pictures, it's the whole era.

Well, she gained weight. Please perform and promote your music instea.
