Sightings are extremely rare because only a few were printed as a "test printing" at Wind-up, and it was later decided that two versions of the "My Immortal" WUJC would be printed instead. Probably less than 10 copies exist.

The "My Immortal" CD single was released on December 8, 2003.[1] This was the first single release to not have a DVD single released in the UK.

Commercial releases

Australia/US/Europe CD single

Status: Out of Print
Label: Wind-up/Epic
Cat.no: 674528 2

All of the international (excluding The UK) promotional commercial singles feature the same track listing.

  1. "My Immortal" [Band version]
  2. "My Immortal" [Album version]
  3. "Haunted" [Live from Sessions@AOL]
  4. "My Immortal" [Live from Cologne, Germany]
  • The CD itself features a distorted silkscreen black My Immortal Logo with some white text on a yellow background. The cover artwork is a photo on what appears to be an old leather photo album with the 'Evanescence' logo. The back artwork is an antiqued yellow photo of a tree with the track listing on it.

UK CD one

Status: Out of Print
Label: Wind-up/Epic
Cat.no: 674542 5

  1. "My Immorta" [Band version]
  2. "My Immortal" [Live from Cologne, Germany]
  3. "Haunted" [Live from Sessions@AOL]
  4. "My Immortal" [Video]
  5. "My Immortal" [Video - Behind the scenes]
  • This single comes with a 9 picture gallery and interactive lyrics.
  • The CD cover has a close up shot of the artwork and doesn't have the antiqued leather-esque photo album border.
  • The CD itself is screened black with a darker orange logo.
  • This release was apparently released in fairly limited edition. After pressing stopped, it became more difficult to find and is sought after by collectors for it's different cover.

UK CD Two

Status: Out of Print
Label: Wind-up/Epic
Cat.no: 674542 2

  1. "My Immortal" [Band version (Guitars down)][1]
  2. "My Immortal" [Album version]

[1]This version is identical to the band version, however the guitar track in the song is muted by about half. This was rumored to be used on radio stations where a heavy guitar track would be inappropriate.

  • The CD itself is black with a orange logo on what looks like a translucent sticker.

Industry promotional releases

US radio singles

3 singles were produced for the United States radio scene. One containing the [Band Version (No Strings)] mix with a distinctively different cover, and the other containing the [Band Version (Guitars Down)] mix with the standard artwork. Both also contain the album version of the track. The last one has no special artwork on the CD itself although comes with 3 tracks (no other WUJC release has ever come with 3 tracks) rather than 2 tracks like the other "My Immortal" promos or 1 track only like all the other WUJC singles.

No strings version

Status: Out of Print
Label: Wind-up
Cat.no: WUJC20081-2

Black screened CD with orange and white artwork came in a standard jewel case containing an insert with only the My Immortal Logo on the front and full artwork on the back. Only a few hundred of these discs exist.

  2. "My Immortal" [Album version]

Guitars down version

Status: Out of Print
Label: Wind-up
Cat.no: WUJC20082-2

Disc came in a standard jewel case containing inserts with the standard commercial single artwork. Only a few hundred of these discs exist. Note the use of the 'e' logo in the tray.

3 track test pressing version

Status: Out of Print
Label: Wind-up
Cat.no: WUJC20090-2

CDR with black print came in a standard jewel case containing an insert with only the My Immortal Logo on the front and full artwork on the back. Sightings are extremely rare because only a few were printed as a "test printing" at Wind-up, and it was later decided that two versions of the "My Immortal" WUJC would be printed instead. Probably less than 10 copies exist.
