This article is about the physical items released with the single. For the song itself, see Bring Me To Life (Song).

The Bring Me To Life single was commercially released worldwide on April 22, 2003. Prior to that—in late 2002—the song was released along with My Immortal on the Daredevil Soundtrack and received radio airplay. The soundtrack release springboarded Evanescence's music into the public's eye for the first time on an international scale. Wind-up did a fantastic job promoting the single by saturating the market with albums, images and the music video. As evident by the sheer number of single releases, this was—and still remains—Evanescence's biggest single. Bring Me to Life has been certified Gold in many countries.

From a collector's standpoint, finding most releases isn't all too difficult. It is still possible to find the standard UK single brand new in stores almost 5 years after its release. It is considered by fans to be one of the best singles because it included 2 unreleased songs (Farther Away and Missing) along with a significantly different version of the title track. This single also saw the only release in a Cassette format for a non-Asian country.

The cover image is actually 3 photos combined, all by Frank Veronsky. The leftmost photo is the same as the back of Fallen, the center is Fallen's cover and the right image is the photo from the back page of Fallen's booklet. The black 'Daredevil' releases also feature a three-photo collage with Ben, Amy and David in the only promotional photo that the band released pre-fallen since Origin. The photo is uncredited.

Daredevil Japanese Radio Promo

Status: Out of Print

1. Bring Me To Life (3:58)

• This is a promotional 'Acetate' CD that was released in Japan to radio stations. The disc itself is a blue polycarbonate CD-R.
• It features an elaborate insert with a Japanese text biography that outlines how Ben and Amy met and their first recordings (notably mentioning Understanding and Origin).
• It also features track information as well as a short synopsis of the movie Daredevil featuring sections about the story, the cast and "The New Hero."

US promo disc. There was a Daredevil version (cat.no WUJC200352) produced before the release of Fallen and a blue version (cat.no WUJC200352R) reissued after the release of Fallen. Although they can be quite rare, they no longer fetch the $1000 price tag that they used to. The re-issue often doesn't sell for more than $100 anymore.

• Both are in a regular jewel case with a front picture insert and a tray insert containing the song information.
