I don't want to sound like an ungrateful fan, but why do I suspect that the Hi-Lo video is going to be in the vein of the AMP Rock performance of LIP?
Which was beautiful don't get me wrong, but that is the vibe I get from the pics we got.

mydnyghtamethyst It won't be like that so much. More like Imperfection, but with some live clips from the London show used. When they were recording, they were literally just taking videos of random bits of the show and these were purely visual (they didn't have any pro-grade microphones attached). They had filters over the lenses and having seen the teaser images yesterday. I feel like we're getting something akin to the weird/arty bit of Imperfection. Edit: (so it'll be a music video as opposed to a recorded live performance).

If it’s anything like the Imperfection vid, which looks like an amateur film greenscreen interspersed with graphics, I will upturn some tables. Imperfection is, of all the Ev vids, the one I like the least. The beginning was good, and then it slid downhill when the music started. Jmho

I really liked the beginning of the video, it was telling an amazing story, which is why I wish they continued with that approach for the remainder of the music video. Of the two new-original releases on Synthesis (Hi-Lo and Imperfection), I preferred Hi-Lo. The lyrics, to me, were more relatable, and the instrumental sound is absolutely novel for Evanescence and just mind-blowing in general. The strength of lyrics is probably greater in Imperfection, but the way the emotions are conveyed is best in Hi-Lo.

I like it (: I kind of feel like a few people will be disappointed since it's very much 'Imperfection Part 2' in the way it's shot, but I guess going to a couple of the London dates it makes for good nostalgia viewing.
Edit: Fixed link. Ev had re-uploaded the video, I assume to solve the region issue they were having this morning - Rark

^So it was more a live performance music video after all. It's beautiful and I liked the atmosphere of video and images and visual effects that appeared on screen. As a live performance music video it was great... but yeah I kinda understand that it'd disappoint people who expected a story-telling music video. Something like BMTL or Lithium. Maybe a dark music video about the separation and break up between a couple and the memories they shared with each other.

princeofpersia They should have put you in charge of the script :') That sounds pretty good.

It's simple, but stunning. I expected something else but I really like it.

mrmellow Looks like they took it down for a bit, I think because a lot of people were struggling to play it due to Youtube restrictions. Let me know if it still doesn't work and I'll see if I can find out what's going on.

We can always rely on Ev to mess up technical stuff. I was there when it was at about 60 views this morning. It was full of good morning comments and felt nice. It's still cool to finally have a video though and it's a welcome distraction.
