And the sound quality is bad because we had to break into the studio to record it late at night when no one was around because we couldnt afford a real session. 1.

It was released on December 8, 2003 as the third single from their debut studio album Fallen.

The version placed on Origin was later included on their first studio album Fallen.

The single version of the song was called band version because of the additional band performing the bridge and final chorus of the song.

Ben Moody was inspired to write it by a previous story that happened to him.

Lyrically, it talks about a spirit staying with you after its death and haunting you until you actually wish that the spirit were gone because it wont leave you alone.

Moody later revealed that the song was written for his grandfather Bill Holcomb.

It topped the charts in Canada, Greece and Billboard s Adult Pop Songs.

The single was certified Gold status by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and Platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA).

The video shows Lee sitting and singing on various locations, but never touching the ground.

The video was nominated in the category for Best Rock Video at the 2004 MTV Video Music Awards.

In 2005 the band was nominated in the category for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals at the 47th Grammy Awards for My Immortal.

The song was performed by the band during their Fallen Tour and The Open Door Tour.

It was also performed live during some of their television appearances and award ceremonies such as the Billboard Music Awards.

Amy Lees vocals and the piano parts of the song were recorded in NRG Recording Studios, California.

My Immortal was mixed at Conway Recording Studios in North Hollywood while it was mastered by Ted Jensen at Sterling Sound in New York City.

The orchestral parts in the song were arranged by the composer Graeme Revell.

It was again re-recorded for the bands debut studio album, Fallen, and is featured on the EP called Mystary (2003), which is much similar to the band version.

However, Wind-up Records preferred the Origin version, 1 which was used instead with the addition of strings arranged by Graeme Revell.

Later, the song was re-recorded and released as a single in the second half of 2003, and is often referred to as the band version, because of the additional band performing the bridge and final chorus of the song.

The later pressings of Fallen contain the single version of My Immortal as a hidden track.

According to Amy Lee, the song was Ben Moodys song.

Moody said that the song talks about a spirit staying with you after its death and haunting you until you actually wish that the spirit were gone because it wont leave you alone.

He also stated in the Fallen booklet that he dedicated the song to his grandfather, Bill Holcomb.

Amy Lee expressed some dissatisfaction with the early version of it saying, Its not even a real piano.
