is amy lee goth?

To be honest saying she's goth because of a stage personna is like assuming because Bruce Dickinson sings metal, he is uneducated. (Even though he's upper middle class, an Olympic class fencer and a BA Pilot.)

Exactly.

Look at Kevin Grevioux. He (an actor) has played nothing but thugs, hitmen, and bouncers his entire career. Of the 28 films he's acted in, he's played a guard of some kind (bodyguard and prison guard appear most frequently) in 15 of them.



In real life however, he's a pacifist, and has a Phd in Microbiology.

Just a quickie... am I the only one that doesn't find her attractive, it looks like her face was put in a clothes press its so flat.  

[ZhahiraRotting]

Depends on what you'd really call Gothic, though.

If people say you're goth, you're goth.
It's not like being black or white, male or female, ect.

It's a made up thing.

Then again if you say you aren't "goth", you're not.



Why would it matter?

I'm inclined to agree. Also, someone here also stated that they lost respect for Amy because she didn't recognize a lot of bands in the hall of fame she 'shaould have'. Just because someone has or has not previously heard of a band or does not like them does not give proper basis, in my opinion, to dislike/lose respect for a particular person or persons in general. Of course, that is just my input.

I think it was more, due to the fact she was unaware of the some of the key figures her stage persona follows. Lack of knowledge in what one is creating leads to claiming the old as new.

And thus history is often doomed to repeat itself.

5 years, and I'll be back in fashion.

Nah, Cousin Amy's alternative rocker of some sort I'd say. *shrug* Normal girl with wealthy relatives. And a good fashion sense.

I don't really care. But what I hate is the people that say Nightwish copied Evanescence. That really ticks me off.

WTF? Nightwish is no where near Evanescence.

I believe the opposite; I can't stand Evanescence.

Also haven't Nightwish been around longer then Evanescence... surely thats pretty key in the fact. Besides where as Nightwish is purely operatic Evanescence is more just female fronted alt./metal band more like Lacuna Coil (who again have been around longer then Evanescence).  

[xxxdeletemexxx]

I frankly don't care if she's goth or not.

She's gorgeous and I love her voice and her style.

Yup biggrin
I like Lacuna Coil and Nightwish (comfort music btw) tons more than Evanescence. Amy Lee's voice drives me up the wall.

ok I hope people don't get mad at me,
but I honestly think that she is NOT goth.
yes,
she is a very pretty lady.
and she wears nice make up.
that doesnt make her goth.

I agree. Don't get me wrong, I like Evanescence, it's just she's not goth.

I too agree.

Her not being a goth isn't meant as an insult, nor should be taken as one. It's simply a statement of truth.

Exactly. She just isn't goth.

Also Amy Lee's voice cracks and wavers everytime she tries to hoild a high note, she needs lessons if you ask me. Though i can see Evanescence slipping into the pop mainstream in a matter of time, going off the past few releases.

By the way... #In sleep I sang to you, our strange dueeeeeeeetttt, my power over you, grows stronger yeeeeetttt# Best version of that song ever. Though my favourite Nightwish song is Gatekeeper, I love big battle songs. :3  

[xslipknotmaniacx]

i think she's a bit gothic
