(power metal and epic metal can be told apart from others - but not from each other - by the lyrics, black metal, viking metal and goth metal can also be safely categorized by wordings).

That's a great point to bring up.

I think I can count the number of Evanescence songs I actually like on less than one hand. Not that there's a whole lot to pick from

I liked one Evanescence song and then...I didn't like it anymore. After hearing it for the billionth time on the radio, there's no more emotion, no more connectivity. It just becomes background noise, not white noise. White noise is supposedly good or something.

I can count the number of songs from them I like on one face. (that made no sense but the number is 0)

Can you count zero? hmmm

yes you can count zero, as unintuitive as it seems

Zero doesn't exist, how can you count it?

0, 1, 2, 3, etc.
no fingers, 1fgr, 2fgr, 3fgr, etc.

also, 0 exists, not to be confused with null.
