"Going Under" is a song by American rock band Evanescence. It was released on September 9, 2003, as the second single from their debut album Fallen. It was written by Amy Lee, David Hodges and Ben Moody, while production was handled by Dave Fortman. Initially planned to be the first single from Fallen, the release of the Daredevil soundtrack eclipsed the decision, resulting in the release of "Bring Me to Life".

The song contains rock and metal influences among others and its main instrumentation consists of drums and guitars built around Lee's soprano vocals. The song received mixed to positive reviews from music critics. While failing to chart on the Billboard Hot 100, "Going Under" peaked at number 5 on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart. It charted in the top forty in every country and it was certified Platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association.

The music video for the song was directed by Philipp Stölzl and it was filmed in May, 2003 in Germany. It shows Lee performing on a concert along with the band, while fans are turning into zombies. She designed the both dresses she wears in the video. It ranked at number 12 on the list of "The 15 Scariest Music Videos Ever" published by Billboard. Evanescence additionally added the song to the set-list on their Fallen and The Open Door Tour.

Background and release [link]

Ben Moody (pictured) co-wrote the song along with Amy Lee and David Hodges.[2][3]

"Going Under" was written by Amy Lee, David Hodges and Ben Moody, while production for the song was handled by Dave Fortman.[3] It was the last song written for Fallen although a demo version was recorded before the release of Fallen, and it featured a slightly different sound in the music and Lee's vocals. An acoustic version was recorded shortly after the release of Fallen, along with several other songs.[4] According to Amy Lee, "Going Under" is about recovering from an abusive relationship, which she has stated in a number of interviews. In an interview with MTV News, Lee further explained the meaning and the inspiration behind the song,

"The lyrics are about coming out of a bad relationship, and when you're at the end of your rope, when you're at the point where you realize something has to change, that you can't go on living in the situation that you're in. It's cool. It's a very strong song."[5]

The UK single of "Going Under" contains the album version of the song and a live version recorded at WNOR in Norfolk, Virginia.[4][6] An acoustic radio version of "Going Under" and an acoustic version of Nirvana's "Heart-Shaped Box," recorded at WXDX-FM in Pittsburgh are placed on the single as well. The fourth track is the music video for the song.[4] Tim Sendra of Allmusic wasn't satisfied with the cover of Nirvana saying that Lee's vocals are "overly dramatic side here and serve to make the song into a bad joke."[4]

Composition [link]

According to the sheet music published by Alfred Music Publishing on the website Musicnotes.com, "Going Under" is an rock, alternative metal, gothic rock, hard rock and chamber pop song set in common time and performed in slow and free tempo of 84 beats per minute.[7] It is written in the key of D major and Lee's vocal range for the song runs from the musical note of E3 to D5.[7] Containing some nu-metal influences,[8] the song features several guitars and drum machine as Lee sings the lines "fifty thousand tears I’ve cried".[9] A writer for The Boston Globe said that the song is a "a mix of Lee's ethereal soprano, piano interludes, and layers of serrated guitar crunch that conjure visions of Sarah McLachlan fronting Godsmack."[10]

Mikel Toombs of Seattle Post-Intelligencer found a Wagnerian arrangement and metal and classic rock influences in the song.[11] Joe D'Angelo from MTV News wrote that the "toothy riffs" of songs like "Going Under" and "Bring Me to Life" might suggest that "Nobody's Home" (2005) from Avril Lavigne's second studio album Under My Skin will sound like "an Evanescence song with Avril, not Amy Lee, on vocals."[12] It was also described as a "goth-meets pop" song by Michael D. Clark of The Houston Chronicle.[13] Tim Sendra of Allmusic said that the "tinkling pianos and hip-hop-inspired backing vocals, [are] making the song perfect for those who find the male histrionics of Limp Bizkit and their ilk too oppressive."[4] Vik Bansal of MusicOMH compared the song with Evanescence's previous single, "Bring Me to Life" saying that it contained "Amy Lee's temptress vocals, pseudo-electronic beats à la Linkin Park, understated but menacing metallic riffs in the background, and a ripping, radio-friendly rock chorus."[14]

Reception [link]

Tim Sendra of Allmusic called the song "one of the harder tracks" on Fallen.[4] Sendra also praised the acoustic version of the song placed on UK single saying that Lee's vocals are "free rein to soar."[4] Johnny Loftus of the same publication wrote that the song "surges nicely into its anthemic chorus, and when the guitars do show up (like on 'Everybody's Fool'), Lee matches their power easily."[15] While reviewing Evanescence's second studio album, The Open Door, Brendan Butler of Cinema Blend compared the song with "Sweet Sacrifice" (2007) calling it the most "radio-friendly" song.[16] Joe D'Angelo of MTV News wrote that the song "should be as omnipresent as 'Bring Me to Life".[17] Vik Bansal of MusicOMH praised the song stating that the band "have poured bits of metal and goth into the cauldron, and by using a smattering of pop, produced a mix that makes those two musical genres more palatable to the general public."[14] It was nominated for the Kerrang! Award for Best Single.

Although "Going Under" failed to chart on the Billboard Hot 100, it peaked at number 4 and 5 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles[18] and on the Alternative Songs chart respectively.[19] The song debuted at number 14 on the Australian Singles Chart on August 31, 2003 which later became the song's peak position on that chart.[20] It was certified Gold by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) in 2003.[1] In Italy, "Going Under" debuted at number 16 on October 16, 2003 and it later peaked at number 9 on January 1, 2004.[21] On the year-end chart in the same country, "Going Under" was placed at number 56.[22] In the United Kingdom, the song debuted at number 8 on October 4, 2011 which later became its peak position.[23] On November 8, the song charted at number 53 and it fell out of the chart the next week.[23]

Music video [link]

The accompanying music video for "Going Under" was filmed in Berlin, Germany, in May, 2003 and was directed by Philipp Stölzl, the same director of the video for "Bring Me to Life".[5] Lee designed both of the dresses she wears in the music video, and stitched the white dress used in the underwater scenes of the video, all while recovering from an illness in a hotel in Los Angeles, California which was the original filming location for the music video.[5] She described the white dress during an interview with MTV News, "It's white and has a lot of shreds. It reminds me of something someone who died would wear. It's a long dress, ripped up. Different shreds of different fabric, just flying around underwater."[5] The red corset that Lee designed was custom made by a designer, and cost US$2,500.[24] Lee further explained the fashion and her style in the video, "I wear lots of funky stuff onstage. I like to mix it up. I like to use two basic elements for my clothing: rock — you know, metal and chains and stuff — mixed with fairies and drama and Victorian clothing — fantasy. Honestly I just wear what I like. You know why? 'Cause I can. I'm a rock star."[5]

The video for the song starts with Lee in a room while preparing for a concert. Several blond women are shown behind her as she looks them in the mirror. Suddenly, as they start putting cosmetics on her face, their own faces start to change and their eyes are turning white. Meanwhile, guitarist Ben Moody is shown being overwhelmed by demonic looking reporters and photographers in a press conference. Those scenes are followed by Lee walking to the stage where the band starts performing the song. As Lee looks at the people in the crowd, they transform back and forth into demonic beings. However, she continues singing the song and during the bridge of the song, she dives into the crowd, which appears to act as water (representing the song's lyrics "going under, drowning in you"). Several shots show her under the water as glowing jellyfish are surrounding her. Moody surfs the crowd during his guitar solo, while from below he is seen floating in the water above Lee and the jellyfish. Lee surfaces at the end of Moody's solo and both are thrown back onto the stage by the crowd. At the end of the video, Lee looks again at the crowd but they don't look like demons anymore; instead, she shortly looks at Moody and he turns into a demon.[25]

The music video ranked at number 12 on the list of "The 15 Scariest Music Videos Ever" published by Billboard.[25] It was added that "Evanescence compares the trappings of fame to being haunted by ghouls in this clip for the band's 2003 single. Singer Amy Lee's makeup is applied by a gaggle of sinister old women, while the crowd at the band's show morphs into a ravenous pack of zombies. Lee eventually overcomes the visions -- only to find that guitarist Ben Moody is a demon as well."[25] According to Joe D'Angelo of MTV News, the shots of Lee drowning in the video, shows a "distressed and emotionally wrought heroine."[26]

Live performances and covers [link]

Evanescence performed the song during the 2003 American Music Awards. During the performance, Lee was dressed in a colorful poodle skirt, tank top and flower-shaped tattoos on her forehead and neck.[27] Evanescence performed the song during the 2003 Teen Choice Awards.[28] On the 2006 Jingle Ball, Evanescence performed "Going Under" and "Call Me When You're Sober". Before starting to sing the song Lee announced, "We're going to do something completely different from everyone else tonight — and rock as hard as we can." According to Kelefa Sanneh during the performance, she was "bending over and pumping her fist".[29] The band played the song live at their secret New York gig which took place on November 4, 2009.[30][31] On their concert at War Memorial Auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee, on August 17, 2011, Evanescence performed "Going Under" in promotion of their new third self-titled album, Evanescence.[32] They also performed the song during the 2011 Rock in Rio festival on October 2, 2011.[33] On October 15, 2011, Evanescence performed the song on Jimmy Kimmel Live!.[34] A live version of the song from Le Zénith, Paris is featured on their first live album, Anywhere but Home (2004).[35][15] American rock band We Are the Fallen, covered the song live in June, 2009 during a concert in Los Angeles.[36][37]

Dream of Life

Dream of Life is the fifth studio album by Patti Smith, released in June 1988 on Arista Records. It was her first album after the dissolution of The Patti Smith Group. Lead single "People Have the Power" received some album-oriented rock airplay at the time, and later was revived by Bruce Springsteen as a theme song for the 2004 Vote for Change concerts. Songs from this album were performed live for the first time in a show on December 29, 2006 in New York Bowery Ballroom. "Paths That Cross" is dedicated to the memory of Samuel J. Wagstaff. The cover photograph is by Robert Mapplethorpe.

The album was ranked number 49 on Sounds magazine list of the best albums of the year.

  • Rockers Hi-Fi

    Rockers Hi-Fi were an electronic dub/dance outfit formed in Birmingham, England in 1991 as Original Rockers. In 1994 they changed their name to Rockers Hi-Fi. Their music was quite popular across Europe as an extension and continuation of the dub music genre.

    Their first success came with a few tracks on the Beyond Records Ambient Dub series of compilations, and "Push Push" became a dancefloor hit at the beginning of the 90s.

    They released four studio albums and also mixed and compiled an album for Studio !K7's DJ-Kicks series.

    Their urban sound was created by Richard "DJ Dick" Whittingham who began his DJ career in Duran Duran's Rum Runner nightclub, he now hosts Leftfoot at the Medicine Bar, and Glyn "Bigga" Bush who continues to produce music as BiggaBush and Lightning Head on his own Lion Head label.

    Their song "What a Life!" was part of the soundtrack for the 1995 film The Basketball Diaries, and "Going Under (Love & Insanity Dub) (K&D Sessions)" featured in the 2000s film Traffic, as well as in the mid-season finale to the first season of the television series The O.C.

    Jaël

    Jaël, (aka Jaël Malli; born Rahel Krebs; 19 August 1979 in Bern, Switzerland), is a Swiss musician, singer, songwriter, actress, and model who from 1993 to 2013 was the front-woman and lead singer of the band Lunik. Jaël's spellbinding vocals, enchanting melodies, and emotional lyrics helped propel Lunik album sales to Gold for Weather (2003), Platinum for Preparing To Leave (2006), and Gold for Small Lights In The Dark (2010).

    She worked several times with Delerium, co-writing, and singing "After All" on their album Chimera, "Lost and Found" on their album Nuages du Monde, and "Light Your Light" on their 2012 album Music Box Opera. She is both internationally famous in the Trance music community as well as domestically famous from her work in Lunik. The origin of her pseudonym is that she had trouble pronouncing her real name correctly as a child.

    Jaël also featured on DJ Tatana's 2004 single "Always On My Mind", which had moderate chart success in Switzerland upon its release. She can also be heard in two tracks ("You Remain" and "Stop Crying") on Mich Gerber's 2004 album Tales Of The Wind and on the 2008 release Sehnsucht from Schiller on the track "Tired".

    Going Under

    by: Azoic

    Now i will tell you what i've done for you
    50 thousand tears i've cried
    Screaming deceiving and bleeding for you
    And you still won't hear me
    (i'm going under)
    Don't want your hand this time i'll save myself
    Maybe i'll wake up for once
    Not tormented daily defeated by you
    Just when i thought i'd reached the bottom
    I'm dying again
    I'm going under
    Drowning in you
    I'm falling forever
    I've got to break through
    I'm going under
    Blurring and stirring the truth and the lies
    So i don't know what's real and what's not
    Always confusing the thoughts in my head
    So i can't trust myself anymore
    I'm dying again
    I'm going under
    Drowning in you
    I'm falling forever
    I've got to break through
    So go on and scream
    Scream at me i'm so far away
    I won't be broken again
    I've got to breathe i can't keep going under
    I'm dying again
    I'm going under
    Drowning in you
    I'm falling forever
    I'm going under
    Going under
    I'm going under
