| What was the first Ev song you ever heard? Where was you? And what did you think of it? For me, as for many others, it was Bring Me To Life. I first heard it on the radio (i think) or maybe it was when i watched Daredevil  Bloody Hell it's so long ago i can barely remember  My first reaction was  WOW! And is still my reaction because it is still an amazing song, not my favourite but not far from the top though. I fell in love with Amy's voice and with the music behind it, they reminded me of Linkin Park in a way. Which i thought was great  Not long after that i bought the album, which was rare for me back then because i would normally only buy album if i was sure i would like every single song. But i just knew i was going to love it, and i was right, it still remains the best album i have ever listened to. |

I didn't buy Fallen until I heard Going Under and My Immortal which I thought were awesome  |
Do you remember where you heard BMTL though? I'm sure it was played on the radio but i can't remember  |

| I think thats what was weird about it at first - I remember thinking the girl's got an amazing voice but then the chorus came in and it kind of ruined it. But I love it now!! She looks amazing in BMTL! When she is laying in bed at the start and finish anyway!  _________________ "I can't remember the time or place. Or what you were wearing. Its unclear about how we met.

| Well the first i ever "heard" was BMTL...you know...Daredevil! But the first one that I ever "listened" too was either FOI or MI and then, I was hooked! I was on You tube at the time and just stumbled on the songs by accident. |

| My answer is a very linear one. The first Ev song I ever heard was the first song on Fallen - 'Going Under.' I had heard some good things about a band called Evanescence, so I went down to our local public library (which is very close to my house) and did an author search for CDs under 'Evanescence.' Found one title: Fallen. I don't remember if it was checked in or if I had to put it on reserve, but I took it home and listened to it. About ten seconds into 'Going Under,' I knew this was a good band. Not long after that, I began doing 'sounds like' searches in various places and eventually found a band from Florida called Lucid Fly, which is probably my favorite band of all right now. Found many others as well over the years, all because of Evanescence. Anyway, that's my testimony.  |

Great story Lith Lucid Fly? I've heard of them, not really checked them out though. So you'd say they are like Evanescence then? |

Somewhat similar. Both bands have a distinctly American 'alternative' sound and share an intelligence with respect to all aspects of their compositions, especially the lyrics. With Lucid Fly the music and rhythms are more complex. As with any other comparison, there are both similarities and differences. For me, the biggest thing with any band is that their music has to have an earnestness about it that convinces me it comes from a real place, as opposed to being manufactured. And that's something I feel that Ev and Lucid Fly both share, especially in the vocal department. |

| I'd heard BMTL but didn't really think much of it because I was only little. I saw Call Me When You're Sober on a music video channel and I fell in love with it. A few days later my brother bought Fallen for me and I've loved them ever since |
