"Amy Lee.....I Love You"

I love Evanescence. And not just because I can actually SPELL Evanescence.I love their music.I love the goofy smiles Amy Lee gets when she's getting lots of attention.I love the way emotion bleeds out of her soaring or growling voice whether she's laying on her back on top of a metal building wearing lace somethings on My Immortal or swimming underwater with demons at a Detroit rock concert on "Going Under"(has to be Detroit, only place I can think of that has enough demons to fill a concert hall).I realize that by law you are supposed to be 19 or under to be a fan. Something about heavy metal riffs and young testosterone. I'm here to tell you that old guy testosterone works pretty well where Amy Lee is concerned, and I've been eating Heavy Metal Riffs for breakfast since I was 13.Yes they sometimes come across as pretentious, yes they are a bit to much goth or emo or whatever the hell it's called nowadays when you wear black eyeliner and act bummed out all the time except when you're band plays.Shit, I did all that. Isn't that what every 19 year old does? Ok .... I didn't wear black eyeliner. But I would have.....if it would have helped me get laid. Hell, I'd wear it today to that end....but I digress.Songs that rock, a voice so powerful that you feel it beneath your skin, a uniquely sexy young woman....things like this don't change the affect they have, regardless of the age of the person being affected. So I'm not going to feel embarrassed that I love Evanescence or for that matter Linkin Park , or Staind or Chevelle ...and on and on and on.I am not delusional. I know that Ms. Amy Lee and I will never hook up. There's that age thingy....she's 25....too old for me. I'm planning for no older than say, 21, with 1 to 2 year relationships, die alone and leave my millions to my kids.(note to self-----make millions)Technorati Profile
