"Call Me When You're Sober" is a song by American rock band Evanescence. The song was written by Amy Lee and Terry Balsamo and produced by Dave Fortman and it was included on their second studio album The Open Door. On July 30, 2006 several radio stations played the track before its official physical release as a CD single. Later, on August 15, the song was available for digital download and it was officially released as the first single from the album on September 25, 2006 through their record label Wind-up Records. Lee confirmed that the song was written about her ex-boyfriend Shaun Morgan, the lead singer of the band Seether.

The song received mixed to positive reviews from music critics who generally praised the instrumentation, the rock sound and Lee's vocals in the song which were described as "strong". "Call Me When You're Sober" peaked at number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100, number 4 on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart, and within the top 20 of several more charts internationally. The single was certified Gold by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) in 2006 and platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

The accompanying music video directed by Marc Webb and filmed in Hollywood, Los Angeles was based on the fairy tale Little Red Riding Hood. It portrays Lee and her ex-lover, played by the British actor Oliver Goodwill. Segments of the band performing the song and Lee singing with wolves are also shown during the video. "Call Me When You're Sober" was part of the set list during two of Evanescence's worldwide tours, The Open Door Tour (2006–07) and the Evanescence Tour (2011–12). It has been covered by American Idol contestant Gina Glocksen and used in the video game Rock Band.

Background and release

"The song is very personal.[...] It was very brave for me, the lyric writing, because I was just sick of hiding behind metaphors in all that I had been writing. So much of the record was about the turmoil I was going through, with choosing between happiness and comfort. In the end, I had to choose happiness and health for myself. I made the right decision."

-Amy Lee talking about "Call Me When You're Sober" with MTV News[1]

"Call Me When You're Sober" is written by Amy Lee and Terry Balsamo, and produced by Dave Fortman.[2] It was one of the last songs recorded for The Open Door. Lee's sisters, Carrie and Lori, perform backing vocals during the line "Make up your mind."[2] The song was recorded at Record Plant Studios and mixed at Ocean Way Studios, both in Los Angeles.[2] In an interview with MTV News, Lee said that the song was inspired by her ex-boyfriend Shaun Morgan, the lead singer of the band Seether. She added that it was also inspired by other things that happened in her life, "it was also about the people I was working with that were kind of holding me down and manipulating me and betraying me. I had to put my foot down and walk out the door."[1] Lee further explained the song:

"I think it's impossible to hide how obvious it is. The day that our single hit the airwaves, my ex-boyfriend said he was going into rehab and canceled their tour. I haven't ever said right out who it was about, but it's about the big relationship I was in, and the whole breakup, which was really long. The breaking up and the hard stuff in our relationship happened sort of after I was out of the spotlight for a while and writing. It wasn't in any way public. I was trying to be kind of discreet about it, and then he totally came out and said he was going to rehab. It was shocking to me. It kind of made for a more interesting story."[1]

During a 2011 interview with Spin Lee said, "It's mostly a chick anthem: 'You only want me when you're drunk. You only want me because I'm not there.' I definitely get a lot of girls who are like, 'That's my song. I assigned that ringtone to my ex-boyfriend.'"[3] The track was leaked onto radio on July 30, 2006, causing several radio stations to play the track early and without being released as a CD single.[4] It became available for digital download on September 4, and was officially announced and released as a single on September 25, 2006.[5] Rumors began to surface that Wind-up chose to release the track as a single themselves, which was stated as incorrect by Lee on Evboards.com: "Wind up didn't choose this single- I did, and I had to fight for it. I love this song. Also, they didn't change anything about it. This is the way we made it. We fought over the guitar part but eventually just got the mix right."[6]

Shaun Morgan's reaction

The same day when the song was released to the radio stations in the United States, Shaun Morgan was sent into rehab for treatment of "a combination of substances."[7] During an interview with MTV News, Morgan revealed that he wasn't thrilled by the song because it followed and it "haunted" him around. He further stated "People would say to me, 'Yeah, man, I know what you're going through,' and I was like, 'No, I don't think you do. 'Your ex-girlfriend didn't write a song about you, that millions of people have heard, saying you're a bad guy. As soon as that happens, buddy, come up and tell me you know what I'm going through.'"[7] Saying that he didn't want to "lower" himself to Lee's level, Morgan further explained his reaction towards the song: "There isn't necessarily a response as there's a lament. I was bummed out. I was really upset that she would say and do those things. In any relationship, I don't think it's right to say and do those things when people break up, and she obviously felt the need to go out there and make me sound like a complete a--hole. What can I do? I just refuse to lower myself to that level. But it was a painful thing and it got me down — people coming up to me on the street and referring to that song. But I didn't feel the need to write back and be mean."[7]

When asked about is there an inspiration between his relationship with Lee on Seether's song "Breakdown" from their album Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces, (2007) Morgan stated, "It isn't an aggressive song, and it isn't even an angry song – I would prefer to refer to it as a lament rather than an angry backlash. You couldn't tell that the song was about one person. It's probably more universal. I prefer to be a little more vague and respectful. There are some things I could have said and done too – there are always two sides to every story. And if anything, the song says, 'Fine. Go ahead and say those things.' But what's the point of telling my side? That's what the bloodthirsty want, and I don't care what the bloodthirsty want."[7] He explained people's expectations to find a song on the album influenced by Lee "These songs are turning out to be somewhat more introspective, which is weird – you'd assume I'd be more pissed off and have more things to say. I don't know how much I want to say and what I want to say. It's tough, because I know what the expectations are for this album and that people will be looking for that Amy Lee reference, and I am trying desperately not to have any. I just ended another truly, truly horrible relationship with somebody, so if there's anything about somebody on the record, it would be about her, not Amy."[7]

Composition

According to the sheet music published by Alfred Publishing on the website Musicnotes.com, "Call Me When You're Sober" is a rock, alternative metal, post-grunge, and gothic metal song written in the key of E minor.[8] It is set in common time and performed in a moderately fast tempo of 96 beats per minute. Lee's vocal range in the song spans from the musical note of G3 to Eb5.[8] Kelefa Sanneh of The New York Times said that "Call Me When You're Sober" uses different genres such as piano balladry, nu metal, symphonic rock and electropop.[9] It starts as a "piano ballad, swerves into hard rock, then builds to a grandiose pop-orchestral refrain, and later on a glorious, glimmering bridge."[10] During an interview with MTV News, Lee revealed the inspiration behind the song saying, "It's very obvious who it's about. I know that people would read between the lines and think it's about my ex-boyfriend Shaun Morgan [of Seether], but I wanted to be completely clear. I needed so bad to say exactly what I was feeling for so long. Music is therapy for me. It's my outlet for every negative thing I've ever been through. It lets me turn something bad into something beautiful."[11]

With no effort to hide her still-raw emotions, Lee accuses her lover, "Don't cry to me/ If you loved me/ You would be here with me/ Don't lie to me/ Just get your things/ I've made up your mind."[12] "Call Me When You're Sober" uses the lyrics "You never call me when you're sober/ You only want it cause it's over," which is directed towards her ex-boyfriend.[13] According to a writer from the website Contactmusic.com, she wrote the song to "vent her frustration" and a writer of The Daily Princetonian concluded that it was aimed towards her ex-boyfriend.[14][15] The Guardian's Caroline Sullivan concluded that the song was written for Evanescence's former guitarist, Ben Moody.[16] In the song, Lee further explains why the relationship won't work "or hoping that he'll crash and burn and finally learn a lesson."[17] She further sings the lines "Don't cry to me … If you loved me, you would be here with me / … How could I have burned paradise? How could I … you were never mine" during the bridge of the song.[18]

Reception

Critical reception

The song received generally positive reviews from contemporary critics. Bill Lamb of the website About.com gave the song four out of five stars stating, "It is great to hear rock power chords that radio will play".[19] He described the song: "There's a bit more zip in tempo than some of the past Evanescence favorites, but otherwise little has changed. Amy Lee's throaty voice soars over crunchy power chords that give way to quiet, contemplative moments."[19] In his review of The Open Door he put the song in the list of Top Tracks on The Open Door alongside "Sweet Sacrifice", "Your Star", "Good Enough" and "Lacrymosa".[20] R.J. Carter from the website The Trades said that "Call Me When You're Sober" has a perfect intro that shows Lee's vocal ability and added that the song is "the album's standout performance".[21] The Boston Globe called the song a "hard - charging opening salvo".[22] Brendan Butler from Cinema Blend called "Call Me When You're Sober" the "most-friendly radio song" along with "Sweet Sacrifice". He noted that those are the only two songs that "don't excruciatingly wane after a minute".[23] The New York Times' Kelefa Sanneh praised Lee's voice in the song, adding that she sounds terrific which "crashes through different styles while remaining diabolically hummable."[9] She added that the song is a classical Evanescence song, which according to her was a "bombastic, meticulously produced ([Ms.] Lee's vocals are doubled for the second stanza), unreasonably addictive".[10]

While reviewing The Open Door, Rob Sheffield of Rolling Stone called "Call Me When You're Sober" a "suit breakup song."[24] Later while reviewing their third self-titled studio album Evanescence (2011) Nick Catucci of the same publication noted that there was "nothing as saucy as the last album's hit, 'Call Me When You're Sober.'"[25] Simon Cosyn from The Sun said that the song is a great put-down and "It charts her [Lee's] personal break-up with Shaun Morgan... and his problems with booze."[26] The Courier-Mail's Jason Nahrung, noted that the song was remiscent to her work with Moody stating that it uses "heavy bass and drums, spotless and lavish production and Lee's unmistakable vocals."[27] A writer of Canada.com concluded that the band showed their power on the "biting single".[28] Allmusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine highlighted the song saying that it had structure, hooks and momentum.[29] Nicholas Fonseca of Entertainment Weekly called "Call Me When You're Sober" an "angry-goth anthem".[30] Ed Thompson of IGN put the song on his list "Definitely Download" adding that it was "familiar to anyone who has listened to the radio at any point in the past two months."[31]

In more negative reviews, Michael Endelman from Entertainment Weekly gave the song a C stating, "The sound of a woman scorned? Very mild, guessing from unmemorable kiss-off, 'Call Me When You're Sober.' Evanescence frontwoman Amy Lee's latest pop-metal melodrama never lives up to the great title, as the melody hovers in a holding pattern."[32] Alex Nunn from musicOMH showed incredulity that the "angelic-vocalled woman" who wrote "My Immortal" could "churn out such dross as Call Me When You're Sober" and added, "musically it's power chords and big riffs-ahoy, generic, mundane, boring stuff."[33] In another review, he said that "Call Me When You're Sober" hints that "Evanescence are a mere shadow of the band they used to be."[34] Jenni Cole of the same publication concluded that there was nothing to recommend on the song and added that it was a "disappointing return" for the band.[35]

Recognition

Bill Lamb of About.com put the song at number 3 on his list of "Top 10 Most Annoying Pop Songs of 2006" saying, "It was good to hear the voice of Amy Lee from Evanescence back on the radio this fall...for the first 3 or 4 times. After play 12 or 13 it all just sounds like unnecessary histrionics. Let's dig down deep for something new in the Evanescence repertoire."[36] However, he later put the song at number 72 on his list of Top 100 Pop Songs of 2006 adding that the song "sounds a bit too much like we've heard it before."[37] "Call Me When You're Sober" was placed at number 10 on VH1's list of "Top 40 of 2006".[38] The song was nominated in the category for Favorite Rock Song at the 33rd People's Choice Awards.[39]

Chart performance

For the week ending September 2, 2006, "Call Me When You're Sober" debuted at number 25 on the Billboard Hot 100[40] and at number 11 on the Hot Digital Songs chart.[41] It moved at number 10 the next week, which later became its peak position.[42][43] It became the band's third top ten single on the chart,[44] and it spent a total of seventeen weeks.[44][45] "Call Me When You're Sober" ranked at number 77 on the Hot 100 year-end chart, a lower position than that of the band's previous singles, "Bring Me to Life" and "My Immortal".[46] It was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on February 17, 2009, selling more than 1 million copies.[47]

"Call Me When You're Sober" debuted at number 32 on UK Singles Chart for the week ending September 30, 2006,[48] and the next week it moved at number 4 which later became its peak positions.[49] It spent a total of 8 weeks on the chart and it was last seen at number 69 on November 11, 2006.[50] On the year-end chart in the United Kingdom, the song was placed at number 139.[51] It ranked on number 5 on ARIA's list of most played songs in 2007.[52]

Music video

In the music video for "Call Me When You're Sober", Amy Lee is shown with wolves which refers to the fairy tale Little Red Riding Hood.

A music video directed by Marc Webb[53] and filmed in Hollywood, Los Angeles in July,[54] was released on August 7, 2006.[53] The video and Amy Lee's theme is based on the fairy tale Little Red Riding Hood. During an interview with MTV News, Lee described the music video saying, "the song is so literal, the lyrics and everything – I mean, obviously, just by the title – that we felt like the video would have the freedom to go in a less literal direction. So it's [a modern re-imagining of] Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf and sort of a more cool, superhero, rock and roll Little Red Riding Hood."[55] According to an interview behind the scenes of the video, the director wanted Lee to straddle her "ex-lover" in the video, but Lee, opposed to selling sex, refused. Lee jokingly said, "You can't blame a guy for trying."[56] Each of the wolves used in the video had personal trainers. Despite Lee's allergy to the wolves in the video she "pet them and [sang] to them".[55][57] She further explained the shooting with the wolves:

"These live wolves came in, and they each had trainers and it was really fun.[...] I thought it was really cool, but then when they came in, they were 150 pounds. So I was like, 'Wow, if I got on all fours, I'd be about the same size as this huge animal.' But it was me and the wolves in the room, and it was all cool. It was awesome. My allergies kicked in, but I powered through. And then we shot the scene at the vanity with the Big Bad Wolf coming over my shoulders and trying to seduce me."[55]

The video begins with Lee wearing a red satin cape, and singing while sitting on opposite ends of a dining table with her "lover", played by British actor Oliver Goodwill. Lee is then shown standing in front of a mirror while her "lover" comes behind her; he starts to massage her shoulders and prepares to kiss her, but Lee refuses, saying that he is "too late". This cuts to Lee and four back-up dancers descending a staircase, where upon reaching the bottom, first Lee then the dancers are lifted into the air. At the end of the song, Lee walks atop the length of the dining table, while chairs and tabletop items are flung aside as she passes. She reaches her "lover" at the end, places her finger on his lips, and sings "I've made up your mind". Shots of the band performing and of Lee sitting with wolves are interspersed amongst the other elements of the video. Initially planned to be filmed at the end of June, the music video was delayed after filming did not begin until the second week of July.[58] It premiered on MTV, MTV2, VH1 and Fuse TV in the United States; and on MuchOnDemand in Canada. It managed to peak at number 1 on MTV's Total Request Live (TRL).[59] Corey Moss of MTV News concluded that the video "was an abstract take on somewhat literal lyrics."[54] The music video for "Call Me When You're Sober" was nominated in the category for Best International Video by a Group at the 2007 MuchMusic Video Awards.[60] It was also nominated in the category for Best Video at the 2007 NRJ Music Awards.[61]

Live performances

The song was included on the set list of the band's The Open Door Tour.[62][63] According to Donnie Moorhouse of The Republican, the song receives a "full band treatment" during the performances.[64] While reviewing a concert by the band, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Jon M. Gilbertson said that the title "pushes away from rock's party mood".[65] However, he praised Lee's live performance of the song saying that she "projected so loudly and clearly that she seemed to be trying to reach well beyond the confines of the Eagles Ballroom, and she hit the notes throughout the set. No screaming or growling, in other words."[65] Chris Harris of Rolling Stone described the performance of the song as having "everyone in the place headbanging along with Lee, whose hair whipped in circles wildly as she belted out the chorus."[66]

During the Family Values Tour 2007, Evanescence performed "Call Me When You're Sober" on July 30, 2007 in Mansfield along with Korn. They had a 65-minute set during the show and Sarah Rodman of The Boston Globe praised their performance saying "'Call Me When You're Sober' was a seething highpoint, with Lee heaving and hurling her bitterness like so much china at a betrayer's head."[67] On the 2006 Jingle Ball, Evanescence performed "Going Under" and "Call Me When You're Sober". Before starting to sing the song, Lee announced: "We're going to do something completely different from everyone else tonight — and rock as hard as we can."[68] During the performance she was "bending over and pumping her fist" as stated by Kelefa Sanneh of The New York Times.[68] Later the band performed the song during the 2009 Maquinária Festival in São Paulo, Brazil.[66] In 2011, the band added the song to the set list of their third worldwide tour in support of their third self-titled studio album Evanescence (2011).[13][69] They also performed "Call Me When You're Sober" during the 2011 Rock in Rio festival on October 2, 2011.[70]

Covers and usage in media

Gina Glocksen, a contestant of the sixth season of the reality show American Idol performed the song live.[71] Talking about her cover of the song Lee said, "It's such a surreal thing watching other people perform your songs in the first place, but people that you don't even know on TV doing 'American Idol' and Paula Abdul commenting on it is just a whole other thing. It was pretty hilarious, just 'cause it's our song, but I don't think she did a bad job."[72] Jim Cantiello of MTV News praised Glocksen's performance saying that she "could kick Amy Lee's butt in a cage match".[73] A writer of Rolling Stone described the cover as "passable enough".[74] "Bring Me to Life", "Call Me When You're Sober" and "Weight of the World" were included in the game Rock Band.[75] D.J Nate, an American disc jockey made a remix of the song.[76]
