| WTF?? com'n girls! this IS NOT an Ev song, its a song of Amanda Somerville ( Epica, Aina, Avantasia, etc ) The same Amy said that she havent heard that song before this its the blog where Amanda says that song its from her - Quote :
- Hello everyone, especially this time to Evanescence fans~
I was searching the web for an interview I'd done a while ago and serendipity-stumbled upon these threads on an Evanescence forum:
http://www.evthreads.com/showthread.php?t=4630&highlight=angel+of+mine http://www.evthreads.com/showthread.php?t=7024
and this on You Tube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVbLOKRoAAY A lot of you know my song, "Angel of Mine," but I got quite a kick out of reading what others have written about it. Apparently there's been some sort of controversy with people thinking that the song was an early, unreleased demo sung by Amy Lee of Evanescence (I'm taking this as a compliment ). I guess it was on LimeWire and some other sites for people to download and listed without an author or as "Amy Lee" or "Evanescence" as the author/performer. There are a bunch of discussions about it, also on YouTube and Wikipedia. Amy Lee herself even commented on it, saying that she checked it out and, "Nope, I've never heard this before. It's not me!" Also, the lyrics that had been listed were sometimes quite different from what they actually are, which was cute. Anyway, I thought it was interesting & that I'd share!
Here's what I posted to the forum:
"Angel of Mine" was indeed written and sung by me and one that I recorded in December of 1998 in my parents' basement on a piece of crap 8-track as a demo! I believe this was probably quite some time before anyone had ever heard of Amy Lee or Evanescence. It was released on my first solo CD called, "in the Beginning, there was..." in 2000. I got a kick out your postings, though! I had NO idea there was such a controversy built up around the song.
If you're interested in the actual lyrics, here they are from my very own files:
You are everything I need to see Smile, and sunlight makes her way to me Love incarnate looking into me Breaths of moonlight washing over me Can I show you what you are for me?
Chorus: Angel of mine, can I thank you? You have saved me time and time again Angel, I must confess It's you that always gives me strength And I don't know where I'd be without you
After all these years, one thing is true The constant force within my heart is you You touch me and I feel I'm moving into you I treasure every day I spend with you All the things I am come down to you
:Chorus
Back in the arms of my angel Back to the peace that I so love Back in the arms of my angel, I can finally rest Feeling you again around me
Yes, it's schmaltzy, but I'll stand up & admit to being cheesy sometimes (and ESPECIALLY when I was an 18 year-old lovestruck girl, as I was when I wrote & recorded this)!
Thanks for the shout out and I'm happy that (most of ) you appreciate the song, anyway!!
Cheers & all the best! Amanda Amanda's Blog | |

| It may not be Amy, but it still is a pretty song. ;] I'd love it if Amy did a cover of it (even though it would probably almost sound the same XD) | |
