1) "So, there I was contemplating the easiest way to decode (as a non-keyer) the single-frequency pattern, reminiscent of Morse Code, hiding from time to time in the background noise of the Evanescence song My Immortal. (Yeah yeah, formally admitting that I listen to that stuff.) As an afterthought while thinking of the changes I’d need to make to my already-existing Matlab Fourier Slicer (R)(tm)(c) for semi-automated decoding, I Googled to see if maybe some equally obsessive sap had already done the work for me. Aww, le disappoint. When/if the GAS tank* refills, I might apply the slicer to looking for patterns in the noise of some industrial stuff. (Although in all reality, this easily exceeds the tank’s maximum capacity.) * the notional tank that buffers my Give-A-Shit reserve for a rainy day."

I have to drop an octave, which is hard to do mid-measure. Also, as an Amateur Radio operator, I can hear what sounds like Morse Code in the background, but I can't translate it. I only know half the alphabet. Haha! I hear it too! I thought I was nuts! You need to figure out what it says and let me know" Source and further information: http://forums.sky.fm/showthread.php?t=1821 3) "We had the chance to chat with Amy Lee, of Evanescence, after the May 20th, 2003 Milwaukee show. We only had a few burning questions for her, all about songs and music she had written. If you listen carefully, during “My Immortal” you can hear a series of clicks at about the middle of the song. "They are supposed to be there," she told us. "WE GET ASKED THAT ALL THE TIME. IT'S NOT A HIDDEN MESSAGE OR MORSE CODE. AND IT'S NOT SOME SUBLIMINAL MESSAGE."

"We get asked that all the time. It's not a hidden message or Morse Code. And it's not some subliminal message."" ">Its NOT morse code - its an effect ben found on the synthezer, >they liked it so they kept it - simple! Yeah, Ben says that on the FAQ on the official site."

"My Immortal" is simply stunning, evocatively sung supported by piano and light electronic undertones. Both Lee's and Moody's harmony vocals add a lovely texture. The mysterious morse code sequence in the background has drawn extensive discussion at the band's website."
