I removed the quote

"I thought it would be awesome for the opening scene, but they wanted something original," - singer Amy Lee about the Mozart cover.

because it was not properly sourced. It was cited as being from the Metal Edge interview, but the source was listed as [1] which is a fansite (?) but certainly a secondary reference. If someone has the article and would like to properly reference it, feel free to put the quote back in. I checked, and Metal Edge does not have online archives that I could find. I also rearranged the article to have better flow. --Patrick Berry 14:18, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Why have you deleted the trivia and other info? About the quote, the article on EvanescenceWebsite has pics than can support it. I'm reverting your edits. Armando.O^{talk • Ev} 00:14, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

I removed the 'Trivia' heading because what is listed there is not really 'trivia'. In addition, an article this short does not really need section headers. I also clarified alot of the wording which you have also reverted. To address the issue of the quote, you missed my point. You can't cite a secondary source, you have to be able to cite the original source. If it is supposed to be from metal edge, then the reference has to be from metal edge, not an evanescence fan site. In addition, the fact that Mozart's requiem appeared in a previous song needs a reference too. Don't get me wrong here, I am not trying to come in and jack up this page, I am simply trying to bring the article up to a higher standard. --Patrick Berry 02:35, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Ok. About the citation, EvanescenceWebsite is the most reliable fansite than exists. If you don't agree with this, it's ok. But as I've alredy said, the EvanescenceWebsite article have scans from the Metal Edge magazine. If you don't want to link the page, maybe you should want to link the images.Armando.O^{talk • Ev} 03:03, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Link to The Tudors Trailer

This link is to a Private video... The user who posted the link should change the video to public, or the link must be changed... --Gerard Armando (talk) 08:59, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Genre

OK, Evanescence play alt-rock in general but this song is symphonic, and the guitar riffs is a characteristic of metal. Therefore it is ought to be changed to symphonic metal.--Nazzzz (talk) 16:29, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Seriously, do you think this should be considered Metal??? And furthermore... Symphonic Metal??? Common, people!!! This is not Metal at all. 189.136.251.39 (talk) 06:09, 2 June 2008 (UTC) Antimatter

I've reverted back to Alt rock. It is simply the most basic genre description we have, in the light of complete lack of consensus. — Huntster (t • @ • c) 07:03, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

OK then, it's better than discussing a lot about it. --Nazzzz (talk) 17:38, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Well, discussion is always good, but discussing a topic ad nauseam serves no purpose :) — Huntster (t • @ • c) 18:34, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
