A childhood favourite of mine, the song which propelled Evanescence to fame! “Bring Me To Life” topped the charts around the world, bringing “Goth” music to the mainstream – good times and fond memories =D
I hope you enjoy the music notes below – I dedicate this to one particular fan, as a thanks for his kind words and offer of support =)
