It's Okay To Laugh At Me, I

The Way That I've Always Gone About Making Music, The Rule Of Thumb, Has Just Been To Make What I Love.

I Am Evanescence. I Am The Only Original Member. I Have Basically Hired The Band. Evanescence Has Become Me. It Is Mine And It's Exactly How I Want It To Be.

The First Real Concert, Other Than Going With My Dad To See Three Dog Night, Was Smashing Pumpkins And Garbage. I Was Fourteen Or Fifteen. I Liked Shirley Manson Because She Reminded Me Of Annie Lennox. They Both Have These Deep, Sexy, Powerful Alto Voices.

Christina Aguilera's 'stripped' Had A Lot Of Good Songs. It's My Range, So I Use It To Warm Up A Lot.

Don't Be Afraid Of The Shadows, It Only Means There's A Light Nearby.
