Eternal- Evanescence

Piano arranged for guitar by Karine Kaprielova

This is a very beautiful instrumental song by Evanescence, its from their older stuff 
not from Fallen.

* I know it may be incomplete because its only the right hand piano transcription, but 
ill try to improve it later….

	I LOVE THIS SONG!!! Whenever I hear it I must listen to it, like 3 more times before doing anything else. I love how it's sort of techno mixed with rock and great piano. The rain thing gets to me sometimes, but the piano piece is awesome. The part at the end is really soothing, and a great ending, though I think they could have added vocals on that part.

No Picture Jeremy Average	#2 by Jeremy Rees at Nov 22, 1972 at 6:25 PM EST
	Yes, this song continues after Away From Me. I love the rainning and piano sound...

No Picture Rockstar Professional	#3 by Rockstar at Feb 1, 1975 at 7:41 PM EST
	It's a song meaning website, not necessarily a lyric site. Even instrumental tracks have something behind them.

No Picture Allen Average	#4 by Allen Stone at May 1, 1980 at 2:17 PM EST
	"the begining sounds like the ending of away from me" it's the exact same notes.". - That's because the last track on Origin was originally supposed to be 'Away from me', Eternal, Listen To The Rain, and Demise all in one track- i think thats the order, let me just listen to it one more time... ... yeah, that's right. Seperate or together- the most beautiful instrumental piece I've ever heard. 1

No Picture Sir Dee of Day Lead Player	#5 by Sir Dee of Day at Nov 24, 1986 at 8:35 PM EST
	You are correct in that the beginning of 'Eternal' is the same as the ending of 'Away From Me'. If you listen to techno/electronica music (not that I'm by any means an expert) there are sometimes entire albums in which all the tracks are mixed to continually blend into each other. Gah, I can't remember the correct term...continual blend/mix or something like that. This is the effect being used to connect 'Away From Me' and 'Eternal'. Also, I did love it...amazing visuals of a gloomy, dark rose garden at night with a girl in a white dress, in the rain...

	"the begining sounds like the ending of away from me" it's the exact same notes. i can't believe this is actually considered a song on a lyric website.

	i love this song more than any other instrumental song EVER. this is perfect exactly the way it is. i will never get sick of any part of it. i wish i could share it with the world.

No Picture luke Wanna Be	#9 by luke chaffey at Sep 27, 2007 at 1:32 PM EST
	"the beginning sounds like the ending of away from me" yep it's the same...and also, the end of the song is the same as "Fields of Innocence", at a slower tempo

	im trying to learn how to play the middle section on piano...but the sheet music i got isnt the exact same as the original and im trying to fix it...im making progress.

	I really like Pookie's interpretation of the song

No Picture THIS GUY Wanna Be	#13 by THIS GUY at Sep 29, 2007 at 11:48 PM EST
	i listened to the song once again and i think i've kinda put together a meaning for it. i think it has a lot to do with becoming immortal, hence the name "eternal". the first part is somewhat lively and represents some sort of struggle to gain immortality, or maybe the excitement or wonder you might feel at first when you become immortal. then the second part after the rain kinda deals with "ok now i'm alone so now what do i do for the rest of the time?" and the end just fades out like the rest of eternity is just droning on and on and on... just a theory, but let me know what you all think.

	Yea i dint really lyk it. I luv Amy's voice 2 much 2 not be able 2 hear it.

	The outro of it, I think, is pretty annyoing though... It is the track Demise, that got cut out from the Origin printing.

No Picture xKGx Average	#16 by xKGx at Oct 1, 2007 at 8:17 AM EST
	Thats a very interesting insight into the song, I would have never seen it that way. Anyway, I personaly like how the guitar comes in right around 1.38sec. Thats my favorite part of the song.

	Such a cool track. They should have opened with it every concert.

	This song is amazingly beautiful. The middle reminds me of gentle rain.

No Picture Derrik Professional	#19 by Derrik at Oct 6, 2007 at 11:50 AM EST
	The paino bit at the beginning is amazing. I love pianos, I don't know why. The crash of thunder in the middle nearly gives me a heart attack everytime - you'd think I'd be used to it now that I know it's coming, but no! So yeah ... the sound of the rain is really soothing, but I don't like the end because it sounds really ... flat? I don't know if that's the right word for it, but it sounds very dark and almost lethargic. To me, anyway. Not sure if that's what everyone gets ... And this was used for 'Away From Me'? Now I've gotta go check :)
