EVANESCENCE
INTERVIEW
Hello Amy and Ben! We're going to ask you questions about your band.
A and B: No problem!
How was your band born?
B: I don't remember exactly... Amy and I...
A: So, we were about 14 years old. I played the piano in a gymnasium and Ben heard me. He immediately wanted to create a band.
So did you accept?
A: I thought about it for a long time but finally, I accepted, of course!
At the beginning, you were not in good condition to create a band, right?
A: That's true, we didn't have much money...
B: But luckily, a small radio station broadcast our songs!
Why did call your band "Evanescence"?
B: because this word looked like Amy's voice.
Do you have a favourite singer or band?
B: Yes, I like Björk, Metallica and korn.
A: So do I.
Your album "Fallen" tops the charts, that's no wonder. What do you mean in this album?
A: It's our way to speak about love and despair.
B: In fact we mean "you're not alone when you feel under and you're sad".
Ok... Let's talk about your concert in France. It took place in Paris on 16th october 2003... Was it great?
A: Yes it was, we had a good time.The French are friendly people!
B: Two musicians John, a guitarist, and Rocky,a drummer came with us. That was great!
Thank you very much. We wish you a long and fantastic career!
B and A: Thanks. Good bye!Our choice
Our favourite song is "Bring me to life".
We have chosen this song because it is the most beautiful love song but the clip is very strange and frightens us.Meaning of the song
A woman lives without feeling anything but she believes in love. She hopes her lover helps her to "come back to life". The man tries but unfortunately, he fails so the desperate woman dies.
This song is a beautiful love song and the clip is very moving.Lyrics: BRING ME TO LIFE
How can you see into my eyes like open doors
Leading you down into my core
Where I've become so numb without a soul
My spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home
Chorus:
(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become
Now that I know what I'm without
you can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life
Chorus:
(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become
(Bring me to life)
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
(Bring me to life)
Frozen inside without your touch, without your love
Darling, only you are the life among the dead
All this time I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul, don't let me die here
There must be something more
Bring me to life.
Chorus:
(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become
(Bring me to life)
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
(Bring me to life)
