3.0 out of 5 stars Only get this if you are a huge fan of the band, April 28, 2003
By TJ (Towaco, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
Ok I AM a huge fan of Evanescence, and i still felt let down with this buy. "Bring Me to Life" is great, but don't be fooled by the Bliss Mix. All the Bliss Mix is, is "Bring Me To Life" without Paul McCoy's lines, that is it.

As for the other songs, while its great to get them, since they were cut from the album, they are not that good. The slow "Missing", however, is better than the fast, hard "Farther Away". The 3rd song cut from the album, "Breathe No More", is much better; sadly it is not on this single.

If you want to have Bing Me to Life without buying the album, or want to have the 2 extra songs, go for it. Other than that, be wary about buying this single.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't Get it except, RARELY, on eBay, September 24, 2004
By Gyakusetsu (Colorado, USA) - See all my reviews
I bought this album on ebay from australia. I fell in love with Bring me to life last summer (the reviewer below mine can kiss it if he thinks he's special). I have reciently become a devoted fan and have acquired EVERY track ever released by the band. I was even lucky enough to get an actual copy of the 2000 Big Wig release of Origin.

I love this single because it has 'Missing' and 'Farther Away' on it, 2 previously unreleased tracks. Sadly, since this particular version of the single was recalled for one that included a CD-ROM video, the general public has been deprived of 'Missing', unless you download a version loaded with nasty interruptions or an incomplete re-constructed version (as is found on the fake Origin from europe). This extremely beautiful song will forever captivate those lucky enough to hear it.

Farther Away is performed live as part of Evanescence's set. It's such an awesome song (the energy Amy sings it with is awe-inspiring), but I can see why wind-up would remove it from 'Fallen'. The song seems sort-of artificial and it doesn't flow with the rest of Fallen. It's better live because, when you sing along, people arround you are like 'what the heck? how do you know that song?!'

Any true Evanescence fan agrees that Paul McCoy Ruined Bring me to life. I'm not saying I totally hate it and everyone involved for it, but his part is so last-minute and manufactured, that it gives the ballad a completely different feel. The bliss mix now replaces the album version on all of my computer playlists.

The album version, though with it's faults, is what captivated me to love evanescence in the first place. The strong emotion Amy Lee put into all of her songs make them all true gems in this world.

4.0 out of 5 stars Toss-Up, December 7, 2003
Unfortunately, they replaced the "Missing" track with a video version of "Bring Me To Life". This makes it a lot harder to decide whether this CD is worth the money.

A good reason to get this CD is if you actually prefer the Bliss version of "Bring Me To Life" (with no Paul McCoy) over the album version that most of us are already used to. However, if you've grown accustomed to Paul's part in the song, then the Bliss version will sound like it has something missing (even though Evanescence had originally intended to record the song without Paul) and there's a good chance you won't like it. Honestly, I don't see much difference and I can't really decide which one I prefer. The body of the lyrics remain intact in both versions so none of the meaning of the song is lost. The little back-and-forth that Amy and Paul have right before the final chorus just reiterates what she's been saying all along, so lyrically they're relatively similar. I guess it's just a matter of taste.

Also on this CD is "Farther Away". It's a good, loud song but it's not one of their best. If you're a die-hard Evanescence fan and *need* to own all of their songs, then getting this CD might be just what you need. Otherwise, I'm not sure if this alone is worth the price of the CD.
