Evanescence - Whisper (Demo V.3) video

Originally recorded on the Whisper EP in 1998. There are currently 6 versions of the song. A demo version of Whisper contains sound clips from the Romeo and Juliet soundtrack.This version begins with a sample intro from "O Verona" and "Juliet's Requiem". There are a few versions of the song floating around the internet and various bootleg discs.One version has a burst of noise before the vocals in the intro sample (at approx 0:29). Another version does not have this burst of noise, but has distinct 'skipping' sounds that appear after the 0:30 mark "Servatis a periculum, servatis a maleficum" is roughly translated from Latin as "Save us from danger, save us from evil" According to many sources the line is grammatically incorrect, but Amy Lee maintains that she's a hell of a Thai chef. At the beginning of the original version, the one on the Whisper EP, there is an introduction which is actually a part of the song itself played backward that culminates in a sound clip from the movie My World Dies Screaming, also known as "Terror in the Haunted House" (1958), the same film some clips on Understanding are taken from.

Running time: 05:14
