JUST IN: “AMY LEE: THE FORBIDDEN LULLABIES” — 12 Hidden Tracks She Recorded for Her Unborn Daughter Emerge After 18 Years Locked Away… Full Story Inside
In a revelation that has sent shockwaves through the music world, a long-lost collection of songs titled “Amy Lee: The Forbidden Lullabies” has finally surfaced 18 years after being written and recorded in secret. The ethereal and emotional project, composed by Evanescence frontwoman Amy Lee, was never intended for public ears. Originally created as a deeply personal gift for her unborn daughter, the album remained locked away in a private vault… until now.
The 12-track collection written during a quiet period between albums in the mid-2000s captures a side of Amy Lee fans have rarely seen: gentle, maternal, vulnerable, yet still unmistakably haunting. Far from the gothic rock anthems that defined her career, these songs blend lullaby melodies with piano ballads, soft string arrangements, and Lee’s unmistakable voice, stripped of theatrics, whispering promises and dreams to a child not yet born.
Sources close to Lee say the album was inspired by a period of deep reflection and longing, during a time when she wasn’t even certain she would ever have children. “These were songs I wrote to the daughter I could only imagine,” Lee reportedly said in a private journal entry found with the recordings. “They were too fragile, too sacred, to share—until now.”
The tracks were unearthed during a recent digital archive project by Amy’s team, who were stunned at the emotional power and musical depth of the forgotten collection. After speaking with Amy and gaining her blessing, the decision was made to release the songs exactly as they were—unpolished, unfiltered, and entirely untouched by modern production. According to those who’ve heard it, the album captures an artist at her most honest and raw.
Titles such as “Velvet Moon,” “The Name I Whispered,” and “If You Could Hear Me” are already stirring intense interest among fans and critics alike. The emotional centerpiece, reportedly a track called “Cradle of Light,” is said to feature a single take of Amy Lee singing while playing piano in the middle of the night her voice trembling, the sound of rain faintly heard through the window.
