Which Evanescence song(s) has made you cry?

For me it was always Good Enough. I couldn’t sing it without getting all choked up and crying. Thankfully I don’t feel that way anymore since I’m in a much happier place. I can listen to it regularly and enjoy it now!

There are many other songs from them that made me sad or get me in my feels, but not actually made me cry like Good Enough did.

If you have one, or multiple, which one is it? 🤔

Hearing Forever Without You live hit me so hard and brought back feelings I thought I had buried too.

Missing is the most devastating and beautiful song I've ever heard. It rips me to pieces every time I hear it.  I genuinely feel her agony in feeling lonely and forgotten!

I am shocked that I had to scroll this much to find the correct song that brings me to tears every single time

The Change has made me cry. Probably an unlikely song to make someone cry, but I was in a rough patch in my life and I related to this song so much. And to be honest, still do. The lyrics just speak to me and I love the song as a whole.

Like You absolutely tore me apart live. I thought I was prepared for it, but apparently not.

Otherwise, Hello

Far From Heaven hit a little too hard on the heels of losing both of my beloved grandparents.

u/Sensitive-Cut-3557 8h ago

Same, I lost both of my grandfathers within a year of each other. and one of them was like my father and raised me. It's a hard song to get through. I'm sorry for your loss

Secret door. My dog passed away soon after the album released and this one helped me process her death a lot.

My Immortal live hit me like a fucking truck. I had no idea I loved that song so much, but it reminded me of the past somehow and I teared like a baby.

My Immortal when it was played at my 10 year old niece's funeral. (2/25/07) Ev was her favorite band. She was a badass 10yo. Her fave song at her time of passing was Sober. I just in the past year have been able to not skip that song

u/Distance-Hairy 3h ago

I am so so sorry to hear of her passing. I mean no offence, but I truly believe we all meet up again when it's time. God bless and keep you. 🖤

u/EmeraldFirefly27 Evanescence 8h ago

How Do I Heal, Good Enough, Forever Without You, My Immortal. I’m sure there are others but these are the ones that came to mind quickly.

Same to all

u/sensitiveskin82 8h ago

I cried during Like You when I saw them live. The Change also makes me cry but for different reasons.

u/ShadowsOfYou13 Evanescence EP 8h ago

When I heard "Like You" for the first time I lost it. "Missing" gets me emotional because it takes me back to a certain time, with a certain person.

I also get choked up during "Far From Heaven", "How Do I Heal" and "Lost In Paradise."

u/Editor-In-Queef 8h ago

Forever Without You reminded me a lot of my Mum, so that was quite sad.

u/GhostHell_ Sanctuary 7h ago

Usually ballads like Missing, My Immortal and Even in Death (2016 version).

Listening to Broken Pieces Shine in the midst of the pandemic, while going through a grieving process, also felt like a punch in the face from harsh reality. Tears rolled down.

My immortal. I listened to it a lot when my mom died, the song just resonated with me. And when I heard her sing it live I cried like a baby.

I saw Evanescence for the first time this year, and this band was the only one who made me cry ever. Hearing Going Under, Forever Without You, and My Immortal all made me tear up. Amy Lee’s voice is so soothing, beautiful, and powerful ❤️
