Amy Lee allegedly wrote “Call Me When You’re Sober” about the frontman of Seether, Shaun Morgan, her ex-boyfriend. Shaun Morgan responded by saying that the fellow South African musician had left herself open to criticism.
Shaun Morgan said in an interview, “What she didn’t factor into the equation of Amyland is I now have to deal with idiots on a regular basis that take her word as gospel. I have to now deal with morons like that. The other night, I walked out of a hotel in Toronto, and someone was blaring ‘Call Me When You’re Sober’ parked right in front of the hotel. They started playing it as I walked out of the hotel. I don’t know what they were trying to prove or what their motivation was. I know it certainly wouldn’t have been the case if she hadn’t gone and told everyone, you know what I mean? It’s like kicking someone when they’re down, but she’s good at that. Whatever.”
Shaun Morgan was the bigger man with his latest album and refrained from any direct response to Amy Lee. However, one song, “Breakdown” features the lyrics, “So break me down if it makes you feel right/ And hate me know if it keep you all right.”
