She often describes writing her most famous track ‘Bring Me to Life’ just after meeting Josh for the first time and recalls how he was a complete, stranger to her when they first met (being introduced as a friend of a friend) but making her feel at ease and comfortable with him, despite the demons she was battling at the time. Hence, Amy felt like she was being brought to life by his presence, and that provided her with a song that ultimately propelled Evanescence into the limelight, partly due to it being featured on the soundtrack of the Marvel comics movie ‘Daredevil.’
