 * GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
 * Lede issues
 * I would change 'The song uses genres from alternative metal to gothic rock and post-grunge' to 'The song is influenced by genres such as alternative metal, gothic rock, and post-grunge', since you cannot use a genre.
 * I would adds links to Amadeus, D-minor, and E-minor in the lede
 * The phrase 'The song received mostly positive reviews from music critics who called it one of the best songs on The Open Door and praised the performance of the background choir' is confusing. Should be changed to 'The song was praised as one of the best songs on The Open Door by critics, who particularly complimented the backing choir'.
 * 'The title of the track, lacrymosa, means related to sadness' should have apostrophes before and after the phrase 'related to sadness'.
 * 'The title of the track, lacrymosa, means related to sadness' should have apostrophes before and after the phrase 'related to sadness'.


 * Prose issues
 * The phrase 'Lee was wearing purple tank, black skirt and black boots' needs an 'a' between 'wearing' and 'purple'.
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * Sourcing issues
 * The statement that 'The Millennium Choir performed the Lacrimosa sequence ("Lacrimosa dies illa Qua resurget ex favilla Judicandus homo reus. Huic ergo parce, Deus: Pie Jesu Domine, Dona eis requiem. Amen.") and backing vocals throughout the song' is unsourced.
 * The direct quote from Amy Lee at the end of the 'Background and editing' section is unsourced.
 * The bit that said 'Don Kaye of the website Blabbermouth.net said that while the song was an "interesting experiment"' is a direct quote mid-sentence, and needs a citation even though one is used later in the sentence.
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * Only real issue is there are two or three negative reviews, so 'positive to mixed' might be more appropriate in the reviews section.
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars, etc.:
 * 1) It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
 * a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
 * There are some issues with this article, particularly in regards to sourcing and prose. Its not enough to quick-fail this article (which is a solid article), so I'd like to see these fixed pretty quickly. If no changes are made in the next two days, I am failing this article.
