“Lithium“ is a song by American rock band Evanescence, recorded for their second studio album, The Open Door. It was released in December 2006 as the album’s second single through the band’s record label Wind-up Records. An alternative version appears on the band’s fourth studio album, Synthesis (2017). “Lithium“ was written by the band’s lead singer Amy Lee and produced by music producer Dave Fortman. Initially written by Lee on the guitar when she was 16 years old, she later rearranged the song on piano and completed it with the band’s performance. The song is a midtempo power ballad which lyrically discusses the uncertainty in choosing between feelings of sorrow and happiness; Lee was inspired by the drug lithium salts and the feeling of numbness that induces. Upon its release, the song received generally positive reviews from music critics, many of whom praised Lee’s emotional vocal performance and the production. The single entered the top 40 in several countries worldwide, where it spent several weeks charting. A music video directed by Paul Fedor was released in November 2006, and it features Lee and the band performing the song in a dark snowy forest, where Lee eventually drowns in a lake of black water. The song was performed by the band as part of the set list on four of their five worldwide tours, namely The Open Door Tour (2006–07), the Evanescence Tour (2011–12), their fourth worldwide tour which took place in the period 2016–17 and the Synthesis Tour (2017–18). 🔴Так же уговариваю подписаться на мой канал 🔴Если вам понравилось, обязательно поддержите меня 👍 🔴For the development of the channel: @973526 🔴Мои треки: 🔴Я в VK: 🔴Instagram: ►ПРИЯТНОГО ПРОСМОТРА! #shorts #instrumental #evanescence
