Has anyone heard any news on a video for this one? Or do you think they will go the live performance video route?

i think this is the best choice for a third single. it may not be the best song left on the album but imo it will be the best reciever all around. my personal favorite on their cd was already released. (going under)

No word on what it's supposed to look like though. They better not do a live performance thing. So many third singles I've loved have gotten that kind of video treatment.

I can't find the clip of the new recording of My Immortal on that website. Can someone send it to me or tell me where to find it? Thanks,

On "TRL Germany", Amy Lee stated that the "My Immortal" video was going to be like a Spanish movie from the '40s, and that it was shot in black and white.

Matt, you didn't list any stations with 1 spin. If that means all the spins you didn't list were one per station, then the stations are: Alternative: 21 CHR-Pop: 15 Hot Adult Contemporary: 4 Active Rock: 7 Rock: 2 Total: 49 In the top table the headings are wrong, the higher spins are this week.

I obviously couldn't list the stations with 1 spin because Mediabase won't show them. You know that. And not all stations not shown on the Mediabase totals only spinned it once. If a station played it 2 times last week and 5 this week, it wouldn't show up. My calculations are right.

Well, I heard the clip on All Access, and I gotta say that it's an excellent track... so, the version that they are releasing is the ballad version right? All Access only had half of the clip up...

The version they are releasing is a ballad, but towards the end on the "I'm alone" line, the band comes in and the song gets a rock twist thrown into it. It's so unusual for a song to give me chills, but this one does. I really hope this goes far on at least one format. I won't be picky about which one. It just needs to be heard.

The ballad version (that appears on Fallen) and the radio edit are basically the same for the first three minutes. Since AllAccess only put the first minute and a half of it up, you can't tell from that clip. But the radio edit is the version that is being released.

Am I blind or did they change this? I went here this weekend and was starting to download but since I was on a modem line I didn't want to spend an hour on it. Now I'm on a DSL line, but I don't see the link there anymore!

Nuts. Looks like that link was taken down. Hopefully whomever the Whined-up representative that demanded the link be taken down from that Italian fan site gets a couple flat tires on his way to work and gets canned.

Billboard review:
My Immortal EVANESCENCE Producer(s): Dave Fortman Writer(s): B. Moody, A. Lee Publisher(s): Zombies Ate My Publishing/ Dwight Frye, BMI Genre: POP Label/Catalog Number: Wind-up 13063 (CD track) Source: Billboard Magazine Originally Reviewed: November 01, 2003
Evanescence scored one of the biggest and best global hits of the year with "Bring Me to Life" and followed it with the like-minded "Going Under." Radio decided to hold on to the former instead of moving ahead, prompting label Wind-up to switch gears for the hastily released third single. Not a bad decision, given the new direction of "My Immortal," a moving, piano-driven masterpiece that showcases a daring, soft side of the goth-metal band. Lyrically, the song paints a vivid portrait of heartbreak, made all the more pointed by the pleading, pensive vocals of lead singer Amy Lee: "These wounds won't seem to heal/ I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone/And though you're still with me/I've been alone all along." It's impossible to listen without reacting on an emotional level. Two versions are available to radio: with or without strings. Breathtaking, potent stuff.
This kind of saddens me though.

Well, it's not rock. The only way it can be a rock song is because of the new version, which only has a rock ending. Heck, I'd say 'Fighter' is more of a rock song..... I take that back! No I don't!

Yeah, I had read that just a couple hours before you posted it here. I feel a lot better about the "band" version being a single now that I know that's how Evanescence imagined it to be from the start.

The thing that confuses me about Evanescence is I remember when the album originally came out, someone was complaining about two killer ballads being left out. Now, the band members are complaining about this ballad. Why did they record these in the first place though?
I have yet to hear the new version, but I can't see it beating the album version. I think of it similar to "heaven (candlelight)", which is clearly the superior version amongst the Bryan Adams song and various dj sammy songs.
Evanescence is coming to town in the next month. I might have to make an appearance.

I really like that video. It was a lot better than I was expecting and I think the black and white treatment fits it perfectly.

Well, they cancelled their dates for November and December so you're out of luck unfortunately thisbeautifulmess. I hate to show bias but I'm a huge Evanescence fan. This song has a whole lot of potential.
As good as Bring Me to Life? Possibly better. Infinitely better than Going Under. I don't know how well it's going to do in alternative stations, but it seems as if it's about to explode onto pop stations in the next couple of weeks.
