General Information

Written by: A. Lee and T. Balsamo and T. McCord

"What You Want" is the first single to be released from Evanescence's self-titled Third Album. It features heavy riffs, strong vocals, and has a theme of freedom.

In an interview with MTVnews, Amy Lee said:

Vin1.jpg "It's about freedom — that's definitely a constant theme on the record — but, it's like Evanescence, and me, and my relationship with the music and the fans, and coming to that [realization] of 'This is what I'm supposed to do ... I want to do this, and when it says, 'Remember who you really are,' that's exactly everything you could assume it means. Vin2.jpg


A sample of "What You Want" was released on MTV's website on Monday July the 11th. [1] The single is expected to be released early August 2011.
