Because Evanescence is a perfect band, in my oppinion...

I love all their songs, Amy's voice is wonderful, she plays piano very well, and the lyrics can hold you on another world while you're listening to the songs!

I'm a fan of Evanescence because their songs kick ass and one of their first concerts in Cleveland, Ohio rocked. Plus the band members seem to be really cool, which is always a plus in my book. :)

Honestly, I could really care less about what the band looks like, pretty or ugly, or how their personalities are, mean or nice...as long as they make good music that's really ALL that counts. Plus they put on a kick-ass show live :)

Because I have great musical taste. When I first heard Eva through watching the video of BMTL, I just knew they were going to be something...even if I couldn't pronounce the name.

As a young girl, I was waiting for a role model to look up to and there were never any female rock singers. Then... enter in Amy Lee! and BOOM!! my whole life took an unexpected turn down the path to Evanescence!! :D Let just say it's been love ever since! :D They're my life and I can't imagine it without them! :D I love them because Amy's voice is amazing! and she's unique!! :D i could go on forever!

I became a fan when a close friend of mine introduced me to Evanescence's music because he thought I'd love the lyrics and possibly relate to them. And I did. Plus the music is just stunning, Evanescence is one of the only musical artists I could listen to over and over again without tiring of them.

Evanescence was the first, and possibily the only band that I've listened to that I absolutely, without fail, love every song.

Their albums are seriously the only albums I've ever completely listened to, and thought every single song was amazing.

Most of the time, you buy an album because the artist released a single or two from that album, and you like those songs, so you figure "hey, why not go buy the CD, i'll probably love it", then you buy it, listen to it, and find out that it wasn't worth the $15 because the only songs you like are the singles.

10-15-2006, 02:22 AM
Because Evanescence brought me to life..I was sleeping,seeing the life to pass away, and Ev made me wake up..

just an illusion

Do I need the reason? I just adore their music. Guess, it's enough. :)

10-15-2006, 08:29 AM
I think the things that we like came when they had to come. It's true, Evan's music is really, really good, but if Evanescence were becoming famous now, maybe i don't like its music.
However, i know Evans like me 'cause its music is really sad. I love sad music (but i aren't a sad person)! Also, Amy's style is great! Her clothes, her make-up, everything!

simply because they make good music and are good persons.......they're a 2nd family 4me and i love them!

Foxfire
10-15-2006, 09:31 AM
Because their music touched me in a way that I had never experienced before. Each album that they put out is a beautiful piece of art and very enchanting. I often find myself lost in the lyrics, very deep and emotional, exactly what I look for in music. And of course their live shows kick ass!!

Tash
10-15-2006, 09:36 AM
Their music has helped me through some of the worst times in my life and gave me hope. I love how their songs can have personal meanings and memories for me. Even on The Open Door there are some songs that I can relate to in some way. Their music is still helping me deal with issues I am facing.

I love Amy's voice because she sings with so much emotion and passion. I have also been inspired to play music again after an extremely long break from it. I hope that one day I will get to thank them all in person :)

I love Evanescence because of their music, no more. They're great guys, and everything, and it's good, but what matters the most to me is the music, they're great musicians and that's why I love them.

fearlesst15
10-15-2006, 10:09 AM
i feel like the answer to that question is just so obvious.


first and foremost it's the music. i love it. it's different, i relate to it, it can help me no matter what mood im in - happy, angry, sad, w/e

the band seems like they have fun together which helps their dynamic.

they put on a sick live show.

amy's voice is plain ole amazing and any other word with a positive connotation.


and that's about it i guess

Firefly
10-15-2006, 11:12 AM
Because no band has ever touched my life as much as Ev. I've been waiting for a band like this for a while. A mix of hard rock, metal, classical and a lead singer who can actually sing, whether male or female.

Tiffany
10-15-2006, 11:30 AM
Music is my life lol. Plus they're an amazing band that actually has talent lol. Plus they're from here so that's always a plus :)

Ashley
10-15-2006, 11:42 AM
I'm a fan because they make awesome music... Music that seems to never get old and that you can completly just rely on to listen to at any time... Also, Amy and they guys seem to be so chill.. I mean you dont see Amy in the Enquirer or anything like dropping a baby on its head or you know anything like that ; )... They dont really put themselves out there, they just let it all come to them, and thats ****in awesomee!!

Ginger Fish
10-15-2006, 11:52 AM
Because Amy Lee has amazing talent (writing and perfoming) like I have never seen before in my entire life. And she sings about life, and it's ups and downs, and who can't relate to that? Plus, she's got a voice like an angel. :)

ninjaaashiaro
10-15-2006, 12:03 PM
Because in my opinion its the best band on the planet...originality and diversity and gothicness=the ****

They have the best lyrics I've ever come across
The piano pieces are so unique and complicated, it's amazing that she's made them up
They actually create every aspect of their music themselves.
Amy never mimes at live performances or gigs.
Their sound is so unique
Their music always gets me through tough situations
I've never gotten bored of them
It's the only band that's created music I can truly relate to

Leanne
10-15-2006, 12:27 PM
Because I just feel so connected to them, like whenever someone mentions them or talks about them it's weird, like i have to be in it too with them. They are just everything I love in a band

-Kristen
10-15-2006, 12:27 PM
Love the music, simple as that.
I respect the members and ever since I heard "Bring Me To Life" on the radio 3 years ago I was hooked.

10-15-2006, 01:00 PM

10-15-2006, 02:44 PM
I like my rock music heavy, with lyrics I can hear properly and that make you think. Started out with Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin etc in the 70's, lost my way a bit when marriage, mortgage and kids came along, but woke up to it all again when Ev came along. Great music that ticks all my boxes!

Scarlett_Rayne
10-15-2006, 04:00 PM
Because the lyrics speak to me. It feels like I've had a lot of the same thoughts and feelings Amy had while writing the songs. I can relate parts of my life to almost every single one of them.

Evan
10-16-2006, 12:40 PM
Cuz Evanescence it's a perfect band
their lyrics
their sound
their members r so nice
They aren't like the other bands

I don't know I just know

I LOVE EVANESCENCE

Aside from just simply liking the songs and relating to their lyrics, I appreciate their dedication.

At the time you had Ben, Amy, and David...these were kids in their 20s if that, they worked really hard to hone their craft, and it has paid off ten-thousand fold. They were no "overnight sensation" even though the world says so...but the fact that they're close to my age and that they worked so long to at the end get a record deal AND be successful is amazing.

I can't say they're my life, but their music at the very least can heal when I'm not feeling so well.

Evanescence opened the door to female fronted metal for me, and I will always be very thankful for that, besides, Evanescence is a great band!

EternalWanderer
10-16-2006, 03:53 PM
I love all the songs, their lyrics are very touching/deep and very well written. The quality is very high and it's not that kind of band you listen to everyday and everyone loves, I think you got to understand it to like it, but that's just my view =) Amy's vocals are...WOOOOW beautiful, and all the instrumental components rock!
GO EVANESCENCE ^^

10-16-2006, 04:44 PM
I am an ev fan for many reasons. first reason in their music kicks ass. next is because it is empowering and helps me stand up for myself and to cope with hard situations. i can totally relate to amy and she has (without knowing) totally helped me out through alot of rough times in my life. for example....when i was in high school i was going nowhere. all through the school years actually. i was a loner who longed to fit in. i would do almost anything to get in with the "popular" crowd. i tried to dress like them and act like them for years. it never worked, and i was often alone when school was out. no plans on the weekend or evening. after graduation i started work and that occupied most of my time. after becoming a huge ev fan in 2003, amy helped me realize that it doesn't matter what people think of you, and life is what you make out of it. i wish i could relive my school days just so i can do it as myself and not someone trying to fit in. i wish i was stronger then. evanescence has helped me become who i am today. and i have more friends now then i could have ever asked for back then. thanks ev, especially amy, i owe it to you!

10-16-2006, 04:57 PM
Because their music calms me down and makes me forget things. Doesn't take more than that. Amy's voice fanscinates me

10-16-2006, 08:10 PM
I love the music!! The lyrics are amazing along w. the diverse sound that the band brings. The music they make is just a work of art and it's seriosuly WHOOAAA ---> HELL YEA material!! Also the band just seems soo chill. I feel like they dont look for fame, they just let it come to them... I think thats an amazing quality.. Tis why i am a fan : )

~*AutumnRain*~
10-17-2006, 05:30 AM
why am i an evanescence fan? hmm..
is it that their music is so real, lyrically and musically...
is it that they're not being something fake just to get people to like them? that they are 100% real?
that their lyrics are so honest, they come from their heart and that the lyrics are helpful for some people when they are in bad spots in their lives?
is it that they inspire me to write my own lyrics, which i do because it's the best form of therapy..
is it that they're changed my life? in 2003 when i became a huge fan, they made me realize i can be me and not to someone else to be liked? that now in 2006, my self confidence is soaring because of them?
or for their kick ass concerts?

which ever reason it is, they are my idol..i love them and their music...ROCK ON EVANESCENCE!!!!!

Beacuse when I listen to them I'm moved :p
I just need to hear that amazing sound once, at mourning, for me to feel that things are going well, even though while I'm having these thoughts I (often) cry

ibefallenangel
10-21-2006, 03:49 PM
Im a fan because the world hurts and EVANESCENCE sounds like they know what Im feeling. I can relate to these painfull expressions

Shari
10-21-2006, 03:57 PM
That's a tricky one, because it's all sooo magical.. ;p

But anyway, I'm a fan because I can relate to some of the lyrics, I love the sound, and they're REAL, something that can be hard to find. And, I don't know...but their music kind of suits my style. I guess I also joined the Ev fan community at a good age, so I kind of "grew" with the music :D

Daniel_P_16
10-21-2006, 04:10 PM
I am a fan because Amy's singing voice is the best I have ever heard, the music is always full of emotion, has a story to tell, teaches you a valuable lesson about life, and is addicting, and all the band members seem to be great people that always strive to put forth a good image by not doing drugs, alcohol, or using profanity in their music, which is drastically different than the way I envision all other rock bands to be.

Chromillusion
10-21-2006, 05:29 PM
To be honest...I have no clue why. I haven't lived a troubled life, so I can't relate to the lyrics. Maybe because its really dark subject matter, though not in the manner that I prefer. Anything that makes people cry (not me, because I'm a manly man) generally isnt my thing. I like the pissed off, violent, overuse of the F-word type of music. I don't even really like female vocalists...except for Amy of course.

In fact, as far as my musical preferences are concerned, I shouldn't even be a fan of Ev. But I am...and its just unexplainable. Thats music for ya.

TkAprtYrDmns
10-21-2006, 06:04 PM
I'm a fan because of the music. It's just the kind of music that sucks you in and won't let you go. I love that you can feel the emotion in the songs. Even through I can't relate to most of the stuff, because like the person above me said, I haven't had a troubled life.
It's just really good music and I enjoy listening to it.

LoveZombie
10-21-2006, 08:45 PM
i have many reasons
a) because Amy plays piano
b) because there is no evanescence song that i REALLY hate (so far)
c) because they have a unique history
d) because I have to obsess about something

Loneca
10-21-2006, 09:29 PM
I like Ev since the first time I heard them on MTV... I really love Linkin Park then and I found something even better, the lead singer was a woman and everything else was much cooler (the lyrics, the sound, everything).... since then I'm an absolute Ev fan.

WiseOldUnicorn
10-21-2006, 09:44 PM
The question isn't ''Why are you an Evanescence fan?'' Rather, the question is ''Why wouldn't you be an Evanescence fan?"

I agree completely. Obviously, the main reason I'm an Ev fan is because I like the music--I think that's the case for everyone. They combine basically every type or aspect of music that I love. The lyrics tend to be things I can relate to, and I have yet to hear an Ev song that I didn't like (which can't really be said of any other band). They're real, they don't sell out, and Amy is a fantastic role model. In a nutshell...I love everything about them. haha

Thais_Essence

10-22-2006, 02:31 PM
Because Amy Lee's voice is wonderful, the whole band is wonderful, I couldn't live without it....When you listen to Evanescence, it feels like you're in a whole different world with the music playing...

Armando_O
10-22-2006, 03:45 PM
i just love Evanescence...cuz..it's the MOST wonderful great awesome fantastic fabulous amazing band ever!

and cuz..i dunno...i think i feel indentified with the songs..like Lacrymosa and Weight of The World

ErgoProxy
10-22-2006, 05:46 PM
I am an Evanescence fan because their music has been able to connect with me in a way that no other band has been able to. I do not dedicate myself to any other band as much as I do to this one, :p. Sure, I love tons of other bands, but not a single one as much as Ev, that's for sure. I could go on and on, but that already explains why.

FAllen
10-22-2006, 06:44 PM
Beause thier music is Aweome that's why

10-22-2006, 06:52 PM
Why am I an Evanescence fan? I don't know where to start. Here I was this little 14-year-old (in 2003) that was into nothing but Christian music. I thought everything else sucked. Then came Bring Me To Life on TV. It was love at first listen. I have been obsessed ever since. I listen to Evanescence every day. If it wasn't for them I wouldn't be into a lot of the bands I am into today. I never get tired of them. They have changed me in alot of ways. I have went thru a lot since I was 14 and I have grown up with Evanescence. They helped me mature, thru pain, sadness, loss, anger, and a variety of other emotions. Slipknot did the same exact thing for me. So I am obsessed with Evanescence and Slipknot. I know as much as I could possibly know about the two of the bands. I have "converted" several people to Evanescence. Everyone I have allowed to borrow my Evanescence c.d. has fallen in love with them just as I had. And I do not download their albums. I respect them too much, so I buy their c.d.s no matter how much they cost. I bought The Open Door the first day it came out, so you could say I am obsessed, as I have said a thousand times already. lol

How could I not be? Evanescence is an awsome band, and I have posters and pictures all over my wall, in my locker at school, on my comp desktop at school I've listened to TOD so many times I think my CD player is broken, but yea there are many reasons why I'm a fan, since I have been listening to the band I have been more outgoing. I listen to the music just to keep my day going or to put a little happiness to it.

10-22-2006, 09:56 PM
I am an Evanescence fan for a ton of reasons. I can connect with their music. Their songs intrigue me and mean a lot to me. Although I like some songs more than others, I haven't found an Evanescence song yet that I haven't liked. They are extremely talented when it comes to writing their lyrics and their music. Also, the mix of classical that they put in some of their songs. I love the fact they use strings and piano along with the guitar. Amy's voice is beautiful and eventhough there are a ton of bands I like, Evanescence is at the top of the list. And let me tell you that I've never been so anxious for a new album to be released like i was for the open door. Up until Ev, no band was able to suck me into their music like they do. That, + much more is why I like Evanescence.

I'm a fan because there music is beautiful and can really speak to me. It's such a awsome band. And they really work hard at what they do. There lyrics can really inspire me and are just great!

Dark_raven
11-04-2006, 06:05 AM
I am a fan because i find myself captured in amy's voice, her power,passion and emotion can either rev me up or bring me to my knee's, hard to explain....something about it just takes a grip on me and wont let go.....it just sinks its claws in and i get dragged into the depths of it, or am i just "going under"

Before-The-Dawn
11-04-2006, 06:11 AM
I'm an Evanescence fan 'cause their music is the only music that is actually real and amazing also i'm a fan because I'm drawn into Amy's voice i've never liked anyone's voice as much as I do hers.

FrozenFears
11-04-2006, 06:13 AM
Because of Amy's awesome voice, her lyrics and magic melodies.;)

Kerny
11-04-2006, 06:50 AM
Plain and simple, there's nothing else like Evanescence out there, and Amy Lee has one of (if not the) best and most unique voice in rock.
You can hear a song and be like 'Hey that's Evanescence' wether you like them or not.
The band is just all around a refreshing tune in todays rock music.

Deni
11-04-2006, 09:29 AM
Because I love Ev. They're like number one band in the world. And i don't think anything would change it.
cuz these forums are great! .:)

On that that disappearance for me all. Without disappearance I cannot live but only half I exist. For last 4 years I do not remember day when I though 5 minutes did not listen to a song of evanescence. Amy possesses the strongest voice which to me when or it was possible to hear Songs written Amy are simply fantastic, the sense of the text not silly on the contrary is pair songs forced me completely will change Will change in the best party, much has enabled to understand. I am very grateful evanescence =) Last time not too is a lot of girls singing in styll rock, especially girls " the center of group =)

Just because Evans is the most originial and creative band I knew ever!!!
You know, instead of talking about 'humps' or 'someone stole my boyfriend', Evans talk about life, about usuall troubles we have, about pain...I think the creativity is the factor who make me like Evans the most ;)

I love their music (duh), the guitars, the piano, the strings, the choir and amy's oh so beautiful voice...
they are so down-to-earth and they care about their fans, you totally rule my world!!! for the last 3 years and a half there is no day that I didn't think about them, listen to them, watched them :)

they are sooo awesome! their sound is different than that of any other. amy has an amaizing voice that is so soothing. i've always preffered a woman's voice to a guy's. the band is so bombastic and crazy! the piano is awesome! the drums are cool! each song has its own little world that invites you in it. the lyrics are so clever and moving. i think its sooo amaizing that everything fits in so well. plus, it helps that the lead singer is really hott!

The first thing that attracted me to Evanescence was the lyrics - I related to them so much and it just drew me in. I also loved Amy's voice and I love rock and piano so it was all kinda perfect really. I love melodic rock bands, and I thought Amy's voice sounded beautiful with the heavy guitars behind it.

i love the bands music what i really like is that it has a mixture of rock and classical music and i love both of them. when i heard evanescence i noticed the types of music thats when i started getting into their music. plus the lyrics are great and amy's voice is very beautiful.

For me it’s because first of all Amy has a gorgeous voice and also because everything she sings about is something I can really relate to. It’s like they wrote my biography. Also I love chick fronted rock/metal bands.

InLoveWithMySorrow
12-17-2006, 06:07 PM
Well, as almost EVERYONE else has said...

Amy's voice is absolutely gorgeous and their music is just so wonderful!

The guys totally rock oout and sound fabulous doing so!

And I love that their songs aren't the sterotypical mushy love stuff... they're just very real and honest.

And they sound AMAZING live... almost as good as the CD (sometimes better!)

And they're so kind and appreciative of their fans, unlike so many celebrities.

What's not to love?

I first heared "Bring Me To Life" in the Daredevil movie when I rented it. I never knew who the band was who preformed it but I knew I liked them. I was too afraid to start liking it because back then rap seemed to be the only thing floating around.

Before then, I was clouded with crap rap, r&b, hip hop, pop and punk rock everywhere. I hated rap and rap related genres (not to mention I'm too fond of punk rock that much) so I didn't really listen to music that much till I ran into the band's music again. I was searching around on YouTube and found an AMV (anime music video) with the song called "Taking Me Over", I abosultley adored Amy's voice and the fact that there was a piano was a fresh change and it incited my attention. i discovered it was a band called "Evanescence" and was surprised to realise it was them who created "Bring Me to Life". I started delving into their history and other songs they created and after a few more weeks I knew this was going to be my favourite band. It was unique. i I was about the only one in my entire school who actually thought this band was amazing. Everyone else thought they were just emo **** (you can only imagine what I said back to them about rap). I felt a bit happy that I had found something that seperated me apart from the rest of the stereotypes at my school.

I love EV's songs because of course, Amy's voice is gorgeous and better than any other artist/band I've heared in ages. Most other artist suck live, but not them. They actually preform well. Their lyrics are true and actually mean more than most songs do. It has depth and meaning and dosen't drone on for five minutes about some "slutty hoe I did last night". I can always find a way to relate to their music even if it hasn't happened to me (example. Call Me When You're Sober). Their music helps me cope with problems in my own life (whether it be abuse, breakups, death or just some stupid things like failing a test.)

I now have all their current albums (Fallen, Anywhere but Home, TOD) except for Origin, which I don't even consider an album anyway. I can recite all the lyrics from memory and never get tired of listening to their songs.

I also love their personalities, they seem a happy for people who've written such sad/depressing songs. Amy is surprisingly modest about herself and still speaks nice about others, even if they've hurt her. (She's never once talked bad about Ben or anyone else, or at least as far as I know). She dosen't fit in with a stereotype and dosent' look like an overly makeuped slut (like most celebrities do, nowadays).

So, in short, I listen to them for many reasons and I can't wait to find out what great stuff they have comming for us in the next album!

EDIT: This band also actually started getting me interest in music in general. I know listen to a variety of genre's (except for rap, which I hate above all else).

Chaosmosis
12-17-2006, 06:50 PM
I see my love for EV as an extension of my love for classical music and well-crafted imagery through song. I love genuine emotive tales told through music, minor musical masterpieces, and the quiet story about those lost and alone who end up finding something of themselves, or others, to reach out to -- all of which both classical music and EV have in abundance. I love classical music for the storyline element and, at the same time, it's something that I've come to love in EV. They're more than just songs sung and performed by talents musicians -- they're stories weaved by minstrels that likes of which haven't been seen in modern music for many, many years. These are the types of aspects that first attracted me to the music of EV. Since then, their style has evolved, as has my love and interest in their evolution.

While they, and Amy in particular, still have/has the classical roots I've found myself enjoying since the beginning... they are so much more now. The imagery-through-song element is still there, and perhaps a little stronger now through The Open Door, and at the same time, it still evokes the same types of feelings and interest in me that I've not felt from anything other than classical music.

This band also actually started getting me interest in music in general. I know listen to a variety of genre's (except for rap, which I hate above all else).

I know, before them I wasn't so into music. Black Holes and Revelations, Eyes Open, and The Open Door were the very first albums (besides Anywhere But Home) that I really waited for.

I am a fan of Evanescence because I can relate to a lot of their songs.
To me, it's like:

I'm in love with someone that will never see me-Solitude
I'm in love with someone that finally have seen me-Good Enough
Why does it actually feels good to be sad?-Breathe No More
My family can't understand me, I need to run away-Exodus
It's pretty hard keep loving you, seems like we can't be here because of everybody else-Anywhere
No one would care if i dissapear-Missing
It's ok, I'm guilty if you wanna believe it But I know who screwed it up-Lacrymosa
I'd do anything for you, even get hurted instead of you-Give Unto Me
I miss to ignore some horrible things about this world-Field Of Innocence
I could pretend to be happy, but, is that what I really want?-Lithium
This person hurt me so hard, but I'm done with their harm-Going under
I love this guy and he means everything to me-October
What the hell have I done with my life, now I can see all my mistakes-Away From Me
You don't know how much I'd love that you stay with me, I can't get you off my mind-Surrender
What's wrong with you?? I wanna help you, but you don't let me-Where Will You Go
I won, you lost. What does it feels to be a piece of crap like you??-Sweet Sacrifice
To loving you is making me fall apart, but I can't help it-Taking Ove Me
This is really the last time that I give myself to you, I'm free-The Last Song I'm Wasting On You


They have really written the Soundtrack of my whole life, with one song for each situation.
That's all :o .

I dunno...I guess I'm an Ev fan because the music has everything I'm looking for from a band. The lyrics are dark and reflect some of my own feelings - I relate a lot to the music. The first time I heard bring me to life, shivers went down my spine. And as a pianist/singer myself who's been into rock and metal for years, they represent everything I would love to be as a musician (well, obviously not to sing like Amy, coz I think I'd have to have a couple of things removed to achieve the required effect...).

Plus, you can really tell Amy's (and the rest of the band's) passion for the music they make. Their heart and soul goes into the music and it comes across.

Well, tha'ts enough of me sounding like a pompous dick.....LOL

12-18-2006, 07:02 PM
Evanescence changed my whole life, and their lyrics mean alot to me, I don't know what else to say....My mom used to love Evanescence too, and that's what made me more excited about the band. When my mom passed away, I guess the only song that really described how I felt back then was My Immortal, until they released The Open Door, and until I heard Like You. I know this song is for Amy's sister, but it means alot to me, it kinda brought back some memories of my mom, like this song was about how I truly am feeling. Well ofcourse it's not the only reason, I am an Evanescence fan because this is the band that I've always dreamed of relating to, and this is the only unique band out there, no one can ever copy them, they are just special! Amy is special and her voice is so beautiful and unique as well, I've never heard any girl with the same voice as hers!

Hehe...that's why I am an Evanescence fan, and I'm just glad I am, and I forever will be! XD

SacredOne21
12-19-2006, 11:32 AM
I totally agree with you, EndlessPain. My mom passed away three years ago, and MI was really the first song that grabbed me and expressed how i felt too.

With EV i just believe they are genuine artists, not some fake, plastic band like sooo many others getting airtime right now. I love all of their songs, from the ep's, origin, fallen and especially TOD. All their lyrics are real and have true feeling and meaning behind them. The music itself is inspring and sometimes haunting. And Amy's voice! Need I say more? She is the absolute best vocalist i've ever heard...truly. I also love the fact that Amy and the guys all seem very genuine and really down to earth. After buying ABH, I fell in love with them even more. I love everything from their music to their videos to their interviews and interactions with each other and their fans. I also totally respect the fact that Amy doesn't use her beauty or sexuality to sell something, (and we all know how gorgeous she is) ;-) But, she relies on her real talent unlike some other fem artists who use their bodies to sell more albums or to gain more attention. I respect Amy because she is a strong, beautiful, intelligent and talented young woman, yet seems to retain an humbleness and genuine sincerity and kindness.

To sum it up, EV is just a unique and rare gem in this sometimes plastic world. And i believe they will be around for many, many years to come. They are true artists who have real staying power! In short: EV ROCKA MY SOCKA! ;)

12-19-2006, 02:39 PM
Because of this beautiful and emotional music, that is also dark and passionate
Because of Amy's amazingly beautiful, brilliant voice
Because of the lyrics that can really touch me and that really mean something. Also the emotional way she sings the lyrics makes me feel the words instead of only hearing them.

Although I may have been a little obsessed by everything about this band and especially Amy Lee, the reason behind being their fan is just mostly their music, everything about it.

Because I LOVE their songs, which is different from the songs of other bands. Their songs touch my soul like no other songs can do.
Include the piano in some of the musics and a female voice singing rock music are awesome (I also prefer female voice than male voice).
I love the contrast between Amy´s voice (which is more sweet and classical) and the sound of the songs (wich is very hard).
Talking about Amy´s voice, I have to say that, I LOVE her voice. OMG, her voice is like the voice of an angel, SO perfect and SO beautiful. I also respect her a lot as a musician and person, she´s so sweet and cares a lot about her fans, this is awesome
I also like very much the other guys, they are great musicians and great people.

Because I think they are all amazing artists. They are the band i look up too. Amy is incredible at Piano, which is my favorite instrument and I look up to her a lot and I practice hard to be able to play like that, and she has an amazing voice. I've had people tell me I sound a lot like her and though I don't totally agree with them because there is no way I'm that good it is one of the bests compliments I could ever receive. Their lyrics are just so deep and meaningful, not like other bands that tell a story that's just in black and white. In Evanescence songs they can mean something different to everybody and you can really feel the meaning and emotion in them. The members are fun, energetic people and I love how audience friendly and well, just plain friendly they are to everybody. I hate bands that are so stuck up and think that they're all that. I just LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT EVANESCENCE!!!

les317
12-20-2006, 01:15 PM
:D I have never - ever heard a voice that fitted my ears so perfectly. I can hear every syllable that flows from Amy's throat. Full of meaning, joy, pain, hurt, sadness, loneliness, hope, grief, longing, it's all there, and I am taken along with it. An emotional journey in each song from start to finish. What a ride!

The combination of classical and rock/metal/nu-goth - call it what you will - works so well together to form such beautiful music that several songs move me to tears. That voice makes me cry, makes me sigh. Makes me glad to be alive, makes me low.

Most importantly, it makes me FEEL.

Where can you find the praise enough for music like this?

little red riding hood__?
12-20-2006, 03:53 PM
Why am I? Why AREN'T I?

Well, reason number 1 is because they are just amazing. They are so honest and brilliantly original, and nothing is beyond them. You can't beat them.

Number 2 is what they've done for me: they saved me on countless occasions. Not wanting to sound mega goth or anything, but I was in a really bad place and the words to Everybodys Fool fitted SO well with what was happening to me. That song saved me.

Number 3 - well, they're just hilarious, aren't they? I'm always laughing at things they say in Kerrang! and on videos. WHAT legends. I can't believe how funny they are :]

People always ask me "Doesn't listening to Ev non stop make you really depressed?"

SODDING HELL, NO! It's my happy music most of the time :] I listen to it and smile because I'm thinking "God they're good." They never depress me. That's not what they're about.

LOVE THEM FOREVER xxx :]

I saw that too, haha. Didn't Amy say once she doesn't agree with Christina's "Sexpot" image, but thinks she has a good voice, and sometimes sings her songs to warm up before shows? I'm sure I read that somewhere. I must say I agree with her on that one. I just like some of her music. That song, "Beautiful," is, well, beautiful. Anywho, kinda off topic, but I just felt the need to make that comment.

Because they're original and inovative. They are something that has never been seen or heard before and it's so damn good. It makes me happy when I'm sad, calm when I'm furious, cool when I'm angry. And finally - most important thing - their music is what I call music. The sound is amazing and powerful. And Amy's voice and talent is a fairytale of it's own. Rock on!!! :)

Evanescence was my key to the world of the music. Beside that I made of Evanescence a religion, a reason for live.

In the hard moments of my life a found inspirations to go on in Amy, in Ben and in the lyrics.

Moreover, all the gothic stuff make fall in love from Evanescence. I love the chorus and the strings, beside the piano and the guitar solos.

I heard "My Immortal" and it reminded me a lot about how I felt when I lost my older sister. I hadn't heard any song before that realy connected me with those emotions. My sister had their CD and I first it was heavier than a lot of the stuff I listen to but it grew on me and I kept finding songs that helped me through dark situations.

Boy... I need a list for this one:
1.Kick ass shows (sorry never made live once only streaming video)
2.Goddess lead singer.
3.Awesome cool band members.
4.Very funny and real in interviews.
5.Kick ass music that i can't fall asleep without.
6.My Immortal in my opinion the best song I ever heard.

03-17-2007, 08:30 PM
Obviously because I like the music... I like that most of the songs have a different sound to them (I still get some of the songs on Fallen mixed up, though). The band members are seemingly real and down-to-earth (I say "seemingly" since I don't know them in person). They aren't without their flaws, thus making them human. They seem like silly, fun people (Anywhere But Home). Overall, a breath of fresh air the first time I heard them, and they opened the door for me to female vocalists in general.

The same here! There was a time I realised I was listening only to male vocalists, but now it's completely different.

In general, I love them because their music is so full of true emotions. I can't ever get bored of their songs. And, well, I won't deny it - Amy is a Goddess, really. <3

I'm a fan of Ev for a lot of different reasons...

First of all, the music is like nothing I've ever heard before. It's a combination of all kinds of genres of music and I absolutely love it! The lyrics are also amazing, and I can really relate to them. Last but not least, Amy is an excellent role model and it's my dream to meet her :]

My friend just asked me the other day why i love Evanescence so much. It was kinda hard to explain to her because she thinks there gothy **** music. I just can relate to alot of their music. Its different and has a beautifull sound. Amys vocals are haunting and beautifull and the instruments are freaking kick ass. The albums are amazing and their great people. Thats mostly why:)

LittleLotte1410
04-06-2007, 11:23 AM
This is why I love Evanescence.

1. Amy Lee always seems to find such an amazing melody that fits the song that she writes. If you tried putting the melodies with different words, it just wouldn't work out.

2. Everybody in that band is amazing at what they do.

3. I think what I appreciate most is Amy's way of transforming her emotions into words. Especially because she doesn't have to use crude language to get her message across. If she did, it would completely ruin them.

I could go on forever, but I'd better stop here before I really get going. Any thoughts?:up: :down:

She's a "True" artist which gets my respect. Damn, the whole band gets my respect at what they do.

They are talented musicians, which goes without saying, and I love the way they mix classical music sounds with hard rock. The feeling I get, it's like you are in a Victorian gothic movie or novel, and there is a grand opera house mixed with a rock stadium.

04-13-2007, 04:03 PM
Because their music is great ... I was sitting in the car and suddenly I heard my immortal ... fell in love :D but before that I saw bring me to life on telly, but I didn't know the name of the band , so then back in the car , after the song I heard the name of the band and i wrote it down and when I got back home I looked for the band on the internet ... bought their cd and couldn't stop listening, Amy has a great voice, the band rox :D

I listen to Ev , not just because it's captivating, but it somehow helps me with my emotions and I seem to relate to what is being said and it like helps me through things and organizes me and stuff. It's like it saves me from bad things. It's so hard for me to explain, but that's the best I could do.

AnywhereButHome
04-13-2007, 06:50 PM
I think Amy has an amazing voice, and the music is awesome. I like playing the loud, long, dramatic, epic songs like Whisper and Lacrymosa, but I also like the softer songs and the acoustic versions (My Immortal, October, All That I'm Living For acoustic). There is quite a difference in style from, say, Whisper to The Last Song I'm Wasting On You, but Ev manage to make it all sound great.

I tend to go through periods of listening to the different albums for a while. Sometimes I listen to Fallen/Anywhere But Home; it's dark and loud and has the metaphorical lyrics. Sometimes I listen to The Open Door, because it's louder and heavier. Sometimes (well most of the time :p) I listen to Origin - it makes me think "Wow, this is great!" every time. I like how it's quite relaxing (esp. songs like Anywhere) and it's a bit creepy (like Eternal and Origin (Song)). I tend to 'rediscover' each album every few days - by listening to it, it reminds me what I liked so much about it in the first place :D

I like how the lyrics are very powerful, yet they do not resort to swearing. I do listen to music with swearing in, but I have a big respect for Ev for writing fantastic lyrics without them.

Wow, I've rambled on quite a bit. Anyway, that's why I am a fan!

I'm an Evanescence fan because they have some of the best music ever to hit the face of the Earth in my own opinion.I love all of the songs except for the instrumentals(which bore the heck out of me) because they're good.The instrumentals are good too but I just think that they are too boring.And also because I'm obbssesed with the music.After I bought The Open Door I listened to it for a whole month and nothing else.Not even songs from different albums I was stuck completely on that one cd for over a month.

Ev, they are the most brilliant, honest, talented, Real, Heartful, loyal, amazing band I know of!!! My list can go on for ever! EVERY one of their songs, there is a little bit in each one I can relate to, and have been through! I love the fact, Ev actually loves, respects, and actually cares about ALL OF US, THEIR FANS!! Amy has always said, if it weren't for all of us, she wouldn't be where she is now! You don't hear that to often from an artist! To me Its All about the passion, THE MUSIC!! There is SO much more I can say, but thats good for now! YOU ROCK EV, AND THE ENTIRE CREW TOO, AND ARE ALWAYS #1!;) :) :p :D :cool: :§cool:

Because I heard (pathetically enough) My Immortal, and I started bawling and had to hear more of this amazing band that can revoke such emotional responses in people.

And then I just got hooked. The band is so amazingly emotional without standing stupid. How can you not love that?

I first heard BMTL and became interested in the band. Then I saw the video on MTV2 Rock and was hooked even more.

I almost didn't buy the album at first since I walked past it twice at Sam Goody's before finally saying what the hell and getting it. It was one of the only albums I ever listened to from start to finish first listen.

I've had some great memories with EV so I'll always be a fan no matter the line-up changes and other turmoil.

Denizen
10-10-2007, 04:22 AM
Well, it started when I heard Bring Me To Life. At first I didn't really like it, :| but then My Immortal came & at that moment, I became an Evanescence fanatic. :D
The reason why I like Evanescence is b-cuz' their songs are always carrying different messages, and their music is always unique, good to listen and very very emotional. Amy's voice blends well too and they always have the best songs in mind. :§cool:

Princess_Slayer
10-10-2007, 04:48 AM
I first heard Ev in 2002 when I got a hold of a copy of 'Origin'. The 1st song that pulled me in was 'Solitude'. There may be a few female fronted rock/metal bands out there but never have i heard a bands music where the messages in the songs are so true to life. They are drawn from experience and you feel an instant connection when you hear the lyrics.... Thats why I love Ev...

That and Amy is bloody hot!

ALiCe StRaNGe
10-10-2007, 05:08 AM

Ev has always shown thier full dedication to their music!
They also show, that when they have to face a tough challenge, they always keep thier heads held high, and they don't give up!!
Their music isn't just about anything, its actaully about real, honest, and very heartful things, that happen in real life, its very powerful, meaningful, alot of feelings, and emotions always come with it!!
I think most of all, they are just themselfs!!!
They don't let fame, and the industry ever effect them, they are always focused, and all about being real, and just being themselfs, and
always have an amazing sence of direction!!!
There is always alot more to say, but this is good for now!!;) :)

Eleonora
10-12-2007, 05:15 AM
There are toooo many answers!!!
First of all, there is AMY. She's more than just my favourite singer, or my icon...she's all my life...I live because of her...without her I would never have been this way. I love her more than everything and everyone!!!!!
On second thoughts, the music that Evanescence does is unique, no one has never done something even near to it. They're the best. In these songs I can hear the voice of my heart singing all that I feel inside. That's awesome, I can't describe it.
I love everything about Evanescence, in a way, they really make my life has sense...I need them everyday to survive ^^!
They changed my life completely, now I think that I really can FEEL everything I was made to feel. I just have to say "thank you"

Crimson Princess
10-12-2007, 07:02 PM
Why would anyone NOT love Evanescence?!?! (stupid qusestion... I know!) Exactly like before_the_dawn said, I could write a novel about why I love them, but that would take up the next three days of your life... so I'll just make it short and sweet.

Amy is just someome remarkable. She might not know it (although I'm sure she does), but she has made such an impact on young women (and young men of course) all around the world, and I'm one of them! You feel like you can relate to what she's saying in her songs, and sometimes you need to know that someone cares and you're not alone. And she's not one of those brainless stars that sells her body just to get publicity! And that makes me really proud of her!!!!!!! I just can't even describe it!

I'm not gonna say that she's made me who I am today, but her music did help me through some difficult times, and for that I am forever grateful. And I'm also not gonna say that I love her more than anyone or anything else in the world, because I don't... but I do love her with all my heart!!!!!

So... yeah. That would just be the INTRO to my novel if I ever did write one!

irene
10-28-2007, 01:56 PM
Just as -Fallen Angel- said, Amys music did help me through something difficult in my life. By then I didn't even knew it helped me, but now I know it did. I'm not depressed anymore.
I had problems with myself, feeling that I wasn't good enough. All the pressures what was on my shoulders pulled me down. Nobody knew, I didn't tell anyone. I bet my friends would die in shock if I told them about it now.
Thing is, when I heared the music of Evanescence I was captured. Evanescence opened a new door in my life, a door into a new and better world. The world of goths, if I could call it that. x) The world where emotions is something you could talk about, where you don't have to wear those special clothes to be accepted. I felt so released, I felt like I finally found myself. I didn't have to live after the book anymore. I could be the silly and uncool nerd I really am.
Thank you Amy, for bringing me back to life! Thank you, thank you so much! I will always be grateful.

Im a evanescence fan because i feel i can relate to their music, in life you go though some pretty tough **** and at times it gets harder then you think, you feel its just easier just to end all you have, stop the pain ur feeling, stop the aching that you get and just be forgotten, that’s how I use to feel, now I listen to evanescence I relies im not alone, whatever im going though someone else is going thought the exactly same thing and if not worse. No matter what someone is always going though a worse patch in life then you are, u look at ppl who die because they don’t have a choice, we do have a choice and we need to make the right ones, evanescence helps me get though so much hard times, listening to lyrics, finding a way out and not letting anyone hurt me again. Evanescence lyrics are strong and epic and it hard to understand but if you understand the lyrics, understand why the band wrote the lyrics then you can relate to it a lot. I spend so many night crying my self to sleep listening to the lyrics, most of the time I feel Amy is singing the songs to me, I feel she wrote the song for me because it’s the song I can relate to, everything she writes into songs, I feel I can relate and I have been where she as, and thanks to her lyrics im still here today, because she and the band as made me relies im not alone, ill never be alone because I have you lot here on the board who is always here to support, help and listen to people.

Evanescence is my life and evanescence have saved my life

and thats why i love evanescence and is a fan of this great music.

Tell everybody why do you considere yourself an evanescence fan?

I admire Amy Lee. She stands strong in the face of adversity and isn't afraid to admit when she's been hurt and how it makes her stronger. She's a woman with a lot of dignity and self respect which I admire, especially since there are a lot of other women out there in her industry more interested in taking their clothes off than making decent music. Amy Lee is definitely my role model.

And ofcourse, without doubt, Evanescence make fantastic music.

When I first heard of Evanescence and their songs "Bring me to life" and "My Immortal" on the radio I fell in love, and looked for more songs from them. And I was just like, "OMG! This is awesome!"
And since then I've been lost in Ev! Nothing could ever compare!
I must admit that I don't usually like to spend much money on actually buying CD's in these internet days... But I would spend the last dime I had on anything Ev related! Because they are worth it! :D

scriptique
11-04-2007, 09:15 PM
Because I can relate to every single song. That's why I love them. Their music is so powerful and beautiful. It's not ear-shattering and it definitely isn't noise.

Evanescence music is like a drug. It's in my system now that even when I'm not listening to it I still have it in my core.

See what I mean? ;)

And of course, Evanescence music lifts me up whenever I feel the darker shade of me rising. Whenever I feel down, let down, or broken.

THAT'S why I love Evanescence.

HauntedMina

Definitely because of their music. It's always spoken to me, and showed that I definitely wasn't the only one who was depressed or going through hard times. I didn't admire Amy at first, no. I admired the entire band for facing what crap they needed to, (except now, not...yeah)... but now...since everything is more positive and Amy has been opening up, I've been given hope..that maybe.. I won't be sick/hurting forever. If Amy can survive all of her emotion turmoil, then..maybe, so can I. Evanescence (and Within Temptation) have saved my life on numerous occasions. Moreso ToD as of late, but ;)

hmmm....basically because they rock! what other reason is there lol. The songs are amazing...I can relate to them. I still remember the first time I heard ev on the radio in 2003 and I just loved them...they were so different. And the band members are awesome:D

They write the songs that I wish I could write! They are everything I would want to listen to all at the same time! They are awesome! And I am so glad Amy Lee won that Songwriting award and is getting proper recognition since she is the best all time songwriter! It's amazing the music they write!
I love EVERY song of theirs and never tire of them! They are my heart and soul! THE BEST BAND EVER!!!!

And also I do relate to some of the songs but then even ones that I don't relate to at all will make me cry! I literally bawl my eyes out FOR her! I feel the pain and all the emotions in the music. Such powerful songwriting!

Ev is a great thing. Not much I can say, but I know that I appreciate the efforts of the band and I appreciate the great music they put out. I don't know why I'm an Ev fan, all I know is that I love the music to play. That's all I can say.

Because I love the band, the lyrics, the music, the name, how much effort they put in. At the end of the day it's because it's helped me so much through difficult times and circumstances.

And then, I should add to my first post that Evanescence is the band who showed me the right path to walk when I was younger. I needed to understand some things of the world and Amy's songs explained me everything. Like, "why do they do that? why they react this way?" she taught me everything. Other people's mind is not so hard to understand now as it used to be. It's been all easier since I know Evanescence. And then they've been my first band, they're my fav band till now and I can hear other bands, but they will always be the best for me and have a great special room in my heart.

Why not? :rolleyes:


Nah, seriously... I believe that there are a lot of reasons of why I consider myself an EvFan. Most importantly, I believe, would be because listening to their music has always been very helpful for me in getting over a lot of rough times in the past and throughout my life. It's like, they've been there for me when I needed them the most. I always find them there for me whenever I need them.

Evanescence FTW!!

I don't listen to Evanescence because I can apply it into my life. I typically keep entertainment and life seperate, just because there is so much corruption masked in entertainment, that it'd be too easy to be corrupted as well. Not that Evanescence is all that corrupted. ;)

However, I can't deny Evanescence has this grip on me that's so hauntingly pleasing. That's why I consider myself an Evanescence fan. :)
