Unraveling (song)

""Unraveling"" Released November 10, 2017 Length 1:40 Producers Amy Lee, Will Hunt Label BMG Chronology 'Synthesis' Bring Me to Life (Synthesis) Unraveling (Interlude) Imaginary

"Unraveling" is the eighth song on Evanescence's fourth studio album, Synthesis. It serves as a intro to "Imaginary."

Background

This was the first piece of music written for Synthesis and inspired by Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata. The song was explained in the tour program:

This is the first piece of music written specifically for Synthesis. It is inspired by the dream-like, upwards climbing in the middle section of the first movement of Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata.

On a track-by-track post on the band’s official Facebook page, Amy Lee said:

I saw this as the intro to ‘Imaginary.’ It was loosely inspired by a part of ‘Moonlight Sonata,’ I’m a Beethoven fan. It’s extremely expressive. That’s one of the first big, hard, classical pieces I wanted to learn how to play while studying classical piano. Everybody knows the hook of ‘Moonlight Sonata,’ but there’s a section with this beautiful, ascending piano part that has always been my favorite. And I think you can hear that.
