I'm Not Ashamed Of My

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.

I've Gotten To Where My Hair Is Like My Onstage Prop; I Need To Hide Behind It And Throw It Around - It's My Slo-mo Effect.

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

I Dream Crazy Vivid Dreams. Like, Entire Movies. And Sometimes I Write Songs About Them.

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.
