Covers and Usage in Media
Gina Glocksen, a contestant of the sixth season of the reality show American Idol performed the song live. 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." Jim Cantiello of MTV News praised Glocksen's performance saying that she "could kick Amy Lee's butt in a cage match". A writer of Rolling Stone described the cover as "passable enough". "Bring Me to Life", "Call Me When You're Sober" and "Weight of the World" were included in the game Rock Band. D.J Nate, an American disc jockey made a remix of the song.

“Here a pretty Baby lies
Sung asleep with Lullabies:
Pray be silent, and not stirre
Th’ easie earth that covers her.”
—Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
“Pythagoras, Locke, Socrates—but pages
Might be filled up, as vainly as before,
With the sad usage of all sorts of sages,
Who in his life-time, each was deemed a bore!
The loftiest minds outrun their tardy ages.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“One can describe a landscape in many different words and sentences, but one would not normally cut up a picture of a landscape and rearrange it in different patterns in order to describe it in different ways. Because a photograph is not composed of discrete units strung out in a linear row of meaningful pieces, we do not understand it by looking at one element after another in a set sequence. The photograph is understood in one act of seeing; it is perceived in a gestalt.”
