1. Sweet Sacrifice- The listener is captivated by the universe of Amy Lee (for?) the first seconds of the disc, at a time when the Neogothic goddess takes great breaths to better carry us away for an hour. Terry’s guitar part (intelligible) with the intense (high notes) so that the voice of Amy follows in the same completeness. The postulate is asked (for) the first period of time (section); the 2006 ____ of Evanescence is very heavy and the production a lot less cold than Fallen.

2. Call Me When You’re Sober- The (first?) excerpt of the album begins with a short, soulful piano intro (the favorite instrument of Amy on which she has composed the majority of the works) by a bombastic song and produces enough. (wtf?) One will equally notice the samples at the end of the first refrain. Amy: “This is DJ Lethal (House of Pain, Limp Bizkit), who is friends with Terry, who is in charge of the samples. He has done an enormous job on the programming, I am more than satisfied/happy with his contribution to the CD!” Most of Terry’s guitar and the rhythm arrangements of John LeCompt make it one of the heaviest songs of the album. The words of the chorus (You never call me when you’re sober/You only want it ‘cause it’s over) are not (probably?) foreign to the ex-relationship of the singer with Shaun Morgan of Seether.

3. The Weight of the World- The guitars disembark/dismiss for the intro when Amy’s voice ____ in murmurs (unintelligible) in alliance(?) with the (somethings) of Basalmo. The song becomes more and more synthetic while the guitar propels itself in an electro-acoustic accompaniment. A radically different title in the index of Evanescence.

(most of that was almost impossible to read. Sorry if it makes no sense)

4. Lithium- The enchanting (delightful) piano/voice duo of the first minutes of the piece immediately (tappelle- whatever that means in French, resemble maybe?) the ballad My Immortal of the preceding album. When the base, the guitar, and the drums enter (or return) into the song (seeming like the second version of My Immortal released (commercialized) as a single), the ambiance makes it more than solemn. The voice (is filled with) emotion and in this way makes ___ the listener into a sadness, reminding (one) gives off the compositions of Origin (the true first album of the group edited in 2000, read the first part of the story in last month’s ROCKMAG). The first light part of the album.

(again, I tried. Apparently it’s a light song and it sounds like My Immortal)

5. Cloud Nine- A plunge (I think that’s it…I keep getting different meanings, one including “dishwasher”) follows into a true BO (what does BO mean?) of dark movies, with the murmurs and vocals of Amy who we rock(?) during all the song in a very somber atmosphere. The samples of DJ Lethal marry(…?) perfectly a new time to the music.

6. Snow White Queen- The glaucous (wtf is a glaucous) has more rigor in the intro than the drums tend (seem) more and more to electronic at the wire of the piece. The refrain (You belong to me/My snow white queen) is very effective.

(not much, but it’s there. Yay!)

7. Lacrymosa-has an orchestra of 22 people conducted by Dave Campbell (who the band performed with at the 2004 Billboard Awards for My Immortal). Amy says that Dave Campbell is a huge source of inspiration for her and is very talented.

8. Like You- (DJ) Lethal is omnipresent, the guitar is insidious (I think…can barely make it out) and the murmuring voice is sad, then Terry makes himself more and more noticed, to better disappear like in a dream. A short title (I think it might mean song), slow and very rich.

9. Lose Control-has piano and loud guitars. Amy says in person that
Dave understands her very well like he his in her head.. etc.

10. The Only One-The intro here is remarquable with the guitar. The "something" of Terry Balsamo, the panio and the vocal of Amy seem like those in "missing" (on anywhere but home)
when the 7th riff guitar arrive they make a reference with
koRN, thoughless.

They say its the third gold piece of the album!!!!

11. Your Star-the piano is the principal instrument here. They put
in front the sound maturity of the band the riff and
the choral are coming back (dark) .. another epic!

12. All I'm living For-The guitar open here the song and then the piano with a
heave riff. They say there is a reference with the title
of the album in the chorus who already
carve in our memory after a small number of listenings.

indisputably the 4th (bomb?) of the album...

13. Good enough-there is a piano and the voice is really intimate and generator of emotion
part of the lyrics: Am I good enough for you to live..(dark) good enough to love me. Its a 8 minutes song

There is also a comparaison with the first album really hard damn...
