Obsessing Over Two Of My Favorite Bands

Evanescence and Skillet.
Their music is so intense.
It grabs me from the start, and moves me until the end.
The music in general is beautiful. The rock brings out the greatness of each song.
The lyrics are more than just words. Each word has emotion and meaning behind it.
And each verse connects to me.
Evanescence and Skillet are two bands that never fail to touch my heart.
Their music tells stories that can't be told any other way...
Stories I recognize... Because I've lived them.

Skillet is the best Christian band I have heard.
The best thing about them is that they aren't the classic Christian band.
If you listen to them, you can't tell that they are religious.
It's like normal everyday rock music, with amazing amounts of meaning.

I can connect to a lot of music, hense why I listen to it so much.

But Evanescence and Skillet are the two bands I can connect to most.

(And Three Days Grace, of course, but they deserve a separate post.)

I'm so glad I can sing Evanescence so well. Because her music is so beautiful and emotional. When I need to get my emotions out, I listen to Evanescence. It's the easiest to listen to, where I can get my feelings out by putting them into my singing. <3

Part of me wants to show that to people... But the other part of me is still SO self conscious.
The only person I have sang Evanescence to is Scout Ehr.
She could hear the emotion behind my voice.
She loved it.
But I'm scared she's the only one that would.
