"Whisper" is a song by alternative rock band Evanescence featured on the Sound Asleep EP, Origin, their 2001-2002 demos, their debut Fallen and their live CD/DVD Anywhere But Home.

On the Origin album, the song "Origin" (a 35 second instrumental) is used as an intro for "Whisper".

The demo version of the song (usually referred to as "Whisper 2002") features an intro of its own, using the songs "Juliet's Requiem" and "O Verona" from the Romeo and Juliet film starring Claire Danes. This version is quite similar to the finished Fallen version.

The choir vocals at the end of the Fallen version were performed by the Millennium Choir. The Latin that they are singing is: "Servatis a periculum, servatis a maleficum". According to the Evanescence official website it means "Save us from danger, save us from evil," but when typed into an online translator, it reads: "Being saved a risk, being saved a wicked". "Servo nos ex periculosus , servo nos ex malum" would translate into "Save us from danger, save us from evil".
