I was never a huge fan of hers, but I was just watching her on Launch doing "Building a Mystery", and she was playing a pretty intricate, not entirely difficult, but intricate guiatr part, while singing. Just her, and an acoustic guitar, and she REALLY impressed me. Well, everyone who plays guitar and sings is awesome...well, not EVERYONE, but it's pretty difficult. Just wondering what everyone else thought of her... :D

yeah, i like her. she's one of those solo acts that has a real talent.

I like her. "Possession" and "Sweet Surrender" are my favorites. Her new song "Fallen" is pretty good too, but maybe not one of her best.

Her new song "Fallen" is pretty good too, but maybe not one of her best.

I've always liked her, even thought I've only just started to really get into her, but she never really took off down here in Australia so that was probably the reason for my slow take up of her music. I love her new single, its not her best, but its still her all the same. Trying to invest in her back catalogue but its expensive stuff!

There is another thread about her Here (http://www.evboard.com/viewtopic.php?t=8419&highlight=sarah+mclachlan), Something about a cd, iunno.

I like some of her songs! She sings very pretty

The music is wayyyyy too soft for me but she does have a nice voice

I really enjoyed her stuff when she first came out.
Shes a great artist

I like the Solace album. I think her voice is deep, and encompassing. but she could be a little more upbeat for my taste. her poetry is pretty good.

I was just listening to Surfacing last night. It was my first full interaction with her music and I thought it was excellent.

so excelelnt that you said "shut up" as if listening to Sarah was stupid.

I didn't say it was stupid. I said shut up because if I were listening to it in front of my friends, I'd probably get laughed at because they don't really listen to artists like her. I didn't say she was stupid either. I listen to all genres of music and I'm open to everything. As I said earlier I thought her album was excellent.

Please don't take the sarcastic comment that I had for that post seriously.

This is the same thing as the whole Atmosphere topic. I liked them too. C'mon gimme some credit.

oh yeah you are the same person that made that thread.

why does it matter what your friends think?? If they laugh at what you like, then what kind of friends are they?

I think her succesful career is over. I don't see her making more hit singles or albums in the future. Her new album got terrilble reviews and her new single is boring.

I think her succesful career is over. I don't see her making more hit singles or albums in the future. Her new album got terrilble reviews and her new single is boring.

and yet her new album has been in the top 10. Maybe you should stop listening to what other people say. if someone says Shoes sucks then I guess you wont be wearing any..

I loved her song "Angel'' it was my favourite when I was younger.
It's kinda like Delta Goodrem. I like her lyrics and piano playing but it's too soft for my ears. I could never really get into it for that reason.

I think that she's amazing. Her song "Angel" is one of my all-time favorited. I could cry everytime I hear it...

I've only heard one of her songs, that I know of, and that was Angel. Very beautiful. I liked it very much.

I love Sarah McLachlan. Surfacing was my first CD ever. I like "Building a Mystery," "Adia," and pretty much every song on the CD.

As far as her new CD goes, I don't think it's as good, but it's not bad. I picked out the singles right away, and so far I've been right. I love "World on Fire." It's so cool.

I'd love to go see her in concert some day, but I think I'd love to see Ev again more. I must prioritize.

i don't know much of her songs, but the ones i know are really great and her voice is amazing :)

i love Sarah she rocks and the song stupid's video rocks

Sarah Mclachlan is amazing. She's so talented and she's an amazing songwriter. She's a proud canadian artist and that's so awesome.

She is quite good. I have a version of "Possession" that's just her and a piano and I love it. I have her Surfacing album as well and enjoy it from time to time.

Ooh.. I love her. I have 3 of her albums.. I have Surfacing, Mirrorball, and Afterglow. I love the song Building A Mystery....

Ms M is a very competent guitarist for sure. She also plays piano pretty too. I've seen her 4 times, counting both Lilith Fairs. She writes straight from the heart and isn't afraid to bare her soul. Sorta like someone else we all know and love ;)

I don't think her career is over yet there, Kap. She is quite established now and her fans aren't exactly going away. If anything, she is getting more. (Glad ya liked the disc CFW my brother) She's not a chartbuster, but when did that mean anything anyways, eh?

Oh, and Unwanted? It's Delta that sounds like Sarah. Guess who came out first.:cool:

There are some remixes and alternative versions of her tunes available that are a little heavier (well, they're electro at least).

AndY

(my fave Sarah tune is Ice Cream)

Sarah McLachlan :D she has to be my absolute favorite and most influential artist of all time. Her voice is amazing and her compositions are beautiful and moving. shes amazing live and i wish i had been able to see her on the tour this year. i have to admit i have all of her albums. Surfacing is a great album and Afterglow is wonderful as well. a few of my favorites: Elsewhere, Song for a Winter's Night, Full of Grace, Answer, Train Wreck, and Into the Fire. it soo hard to choose!

she is defiently one of my fave artist!! I've been listening to her since I was 8 years old and have yet to see her in concert:(!

(my fave Sarah tune is Ice Cream)

I haven't heard that song in FOREVER! That's because my Mirrorball CD doesn't play. :mad: Any song involving ice cream and chocolate is my favorite.

I've had her cd ever since she came out with Angel. That song always makes me cry, especially when they play it at funerals.

I just saw her in concert Friday night, for the second time, on her Afterglow tour. She's just amazing. She played for over two hours. Her opening act, Butterfly Boucher, was really amazing live as well. *Smiles and giggles as she looks at her autographed cd insert* It was definitely worth the $75 tickets.

Yes I know, I'm double posting But....

Have any of you seen the video for 'World on Fire' ?

It's amazing.

If you're interested, here it is...
World on Fire (http://www.worldonfire.ca)

Oh, you need QuickTime to play it.

That video was awesome. The first time i've seen it for some reason. Thanks for posting the link.

i just saw the video for " world's on fire" and i loved it... it's one of her best videos so far... i love the ending...

peace...

I loooove her. One of the greatest acts of the 90's, in my opinion. Her voice is incredible. It's weird because it's not particularly powerful and the range isn't that large, but still, it's just wonderfull. Angel is one of the greatest songs I've ever heard.

I absolutely love Sarah McLachlan - "Prayer of Saint Francis" and "Full of Grace" especially...Her lyrics are just perfect :)

i like her alot. i think she has a really good voice. my fav song is fallen.

I really like some musics of her .. she have a very very very good voice , just love her voice .. my favorite music of sarah is Angel , BSO of Angel City

i really like her, i love "Full of grace", it's beautiful. you know, i think this post made me have a dream about her last night, cause i read it just before i went to bed then i had a dream that i met her lol, how weird?

Everyone be on the lookout for Sarah is adding a bunch of 2005 dates. WOOHOO! I'd love to see her again.

I like her voice but her songs are sad ;_; (like "I will Remember You" and "In the Arms of an Angel")

But the "World on Fire" video is pretty genius.

Sarah McLachlan is a wonderful singer, one of my favs, she has an amazing voice, deep lyrics and wonderful melodies, i <3 her :)

I have followed Sarah for a while now and have seen her 2 times in concert. She is wonderful but I do have to be in a certain mood to listen to her CDs....a quiet thoughtful place I guess. I listened to her more when I was in my Jewel/Sarah/Natalie Merchant phase.....still wonderful singers and songwriters..... bu I have been going for harder more rock music for the past year or so!

AmyBeth :)

talking about Jewel, i'm so sad when i see how she turned out, she was such a wonderful singer, and look now, her songs have no meaning and she's showing her boobs and arse to sell records, i don't get it, she doesn't need that!

i really like her. she kind of reminds me of amy i guess, in the sense that she is so unique and does her own thing, not to mention she is a very talented and beautiful woman. unfortunantly i have never bought any of her albums, but i think she rocks!

I LOVE the song Silence. It's Delerium featuring Sarah. It's from the Brokedown Palace soundtrack. She has a very beautiful voice. Maybe I'll listen to some more of her songs. :)

she's pretty cool! i dont have any of her cd's tho. I used to listen to her a long time ago.. i like her older songs! :)

I will re-live this thread :D

I have gotten some Sarah's albums lately (Mirrorball, Fumbling Towards Ecstacy, and Afterglow).

It's amazing the quality and warmth of her voice, besides the lyrics that have just blown me away.

My fave songs should be Fallen, Elsewhere, and Possession.

It's true that the music is kind of "too soft" for me, but that doesn't make me any less willing to listen to it.

I'd recommend anybody to buy her albums, oh yes :)

Ooh, I <3 Elsewhere! For about a month, that was basically the only song I listened to!

I love Sarah! I'm so pissed that I missed out on a chance to see her in concert. My sisters went without me. :(

The only album I own is "Afterglow", but that's because I just steal my sister's copies of the others. :p

I've always adored Sarah Mclachlan. She's been one of my idols since I was ten, maybe. She's such a talented person; my second favorite vocalist.

New tour dates here:

http://www.ticketmaster.com/artist/741472

Nothing in the midwest, probably because she was in WI in September and I didn't go...because I'm poor. But for those of you in Cali and Florida, you're in luck.

yeah, i dun really listen to her as much anymore, but ever since i heard Full of Grace on Buffy a few years ago, i started getting into her music lol she's cool :)

oh i love her - she's extremely talented and has a great voice, i also love her lyrics - and i'm just completely blown away by her cover of "gloomy sunday" - she did such an amazing job - that would actually be a pretty good cover for ev to do, it's definently a darker type of song and i think amy would do a great job with it too

Oh this is really cool. Sarah is coming to the Mohegan Sun. That is like 20 minutes from me. I will be there for sure.

Oh this is really cool. Sarah is coming to the Mohegan Sun. That is like 20 minutes from me. I will be there for sure.

Lucky. I'm waiting to see if she announces a Milwaukee or Chicago date. She did Milwaukee last tour so i'm not so sure i'll get to see her again. :(

I quite like her! My favourite song of hers is I Will Remember You, or something like that, I also love the song about the angels...and the song with the famine images in them, and the clip has words on the screen saying that so much money can buy all this stuff.

As I posted before in this thread I have seen Sarah before....but she is coming to the local arena here in Albany. For my Mom's birthday in December I got 2 tickets for my Mom and Me....my Mom loves Sarah and has never been to see her before! She is so excited! It will be fun to experience the concert with someone so jazzed about it all!

AmyBeth

If you can see her live DO IT....her band is great and the two guitarist in her group are great. My bad that I dont know who they are.....

^^ I hate you guys that can see her live

:D


I think I shall be happy just with listening to her albums =/

*wonders why she lives in the end of the world* lol

I almost go to see her. But i was taking a summer course and had a paper due that night, so i couldnt go. Still hate that i couldnt go.

Lucky. I'm waiting to see if she announces a Milwaukee or Chicago date. She did Milwaukee last tour so i'm not so sure i'll get to see her again. :(

Well I think she was right by me last tour too so I think your chances are good.

My sister just told me on the phone that she would go with me. I can't freaking wait.

Thanks for trying to keep my hopes alive. I'd LOVE to see her live again. It's only fair since we've waited like six years for this.

Sarah McLachlan will be featured on a re-recorded version of "Time After Time" with Cyndi Lauper.

That's really weird...don't know what to think about that, actually.

Bloom, her remix album was out today, I believe.

You can hear a small clip of the song here:
http://www.cyndilaupermusic.com/

I was listening to it earlier, it's not too bad but I'd like to hear the whole song before I make any decision on it.

I dont know if this has been discussed, but has anyone heard the "Poseesion" piano version at the end of Fumbling towward ecstacy? it's amazing, yet creepy.

Yesterday after the Thanksgiving meal a bunch of us were outside talking about various things.Music came up (much safer than politics or religion) and my brother's wife mentioned she had only discovered Sarah about two years ago. I thought that was kinda amusing. I mentioned a song by Sarah I had heard and she said she never heard of it. So in case you haven't either let me recommend "Song for a Winter's Night."

oh bugger. why id I not know there was a Sarah McLachlan thread. or I did and i just forgot about it. ahhaa
ahhh I only have Afterglow. but I loves it so. her music is just *sigh*

I dont know if this has been discussed, but has anyone heard the "Poseesion" piano version at the end of Fumbling towward ecstacy? it's amazing, yet creepy.

Oh yeah! I know the piano version! Actually I accidently heard it before I heard the regular version. I just fell in love with that song, in the piano version, it's so pure and gets to my heart, one of the saddest song i've ever heard.
As a fan of Sarah, I have all of her Cd's (not all are original, I admit :rolleyes: ), I mostly love "Surfacing", "Fumbling towards ecstacy" and "Afterglow", but I love many songs from other albums. She's a great musician, her voice is one of the greatest voices i've heard.
I wonder what Amy thinks of her... :p

I think Amy likes her as a singer because I saw her and Sarah standing in pictures together at the 2003 Grammy nomantions.My favourite songs by Sarah are probably Good Enough,Sweet Surrender and Possesion.

WOW that's awesome!!! Do you have this picture?? I wanna see!!!
And my favourite songs are Building a mystery, hold on, possession, when she loved her, Adia, Angel, Good enoguh, Wrold's on fire and the list goes on :D

Ah, my favorite songs from her are Fallen, Angel, and Building a Mystery (in that order). She's got a great voice. Kinda like Amy. They should collaborate... I know, it's already been mentioned but whatever. They're still both great!

I like Sarah McLachlan. One of the few people that my dad and I both like listening to. Our bonding music, I guess. :) My faves are Building a Mystery, Sweet Surrender, and Fallen. And I Will Remember You.

Oh I'd like to see those Amy and Sarah pictures!

My very favourite Sarah song is Elsewhere. I feel so connected to that song, it is just beautiful :)
Possession is a second favourite. And I like the studio version better than the piano live one.

Songs as Adia, I Will Remember You, Good Enough, I Love You, The Path of Thorns, Do What You Have to Do, Angel, Song for a Winter's Night, Full of Grace, are my other favourites :D

Song for a Winter's Night

I'm glad someone besides me remembers that song. It really is a good song.

^ That song's awesome.

My uncle recently bought me "Surfacing". It's my favourite album after Fumbling Towards Ecstasy. <3

Has anyone bought "Bloom"? I'm not too keen on the remixes, so I'd like to see if others liked it and I might buy it. :)

I'm not that into remixes either, but I listened to it at the store and it was actually very cool (imo). I keep on forgetting to buy it though.. XD

She's the only kind of mellow music I'll listen to (well, I guess Anna Nalick would qualify as mellow too.) She has a beautiful voice, and her lyrics are excellent. I like a lot of the piano driven songs. I'm currently hunting for the sheet music for "Angel" so I can learn how to play it.

I might wait til it's a little cheaper to buy, I'm fussy about the price I pay for CD's. :)

I'm currently hunting for the sheet music for "Angel" so I can learn how to play it.

I've been looking for it so I can play it on guitar. But, I'd need to learn to play a guitar first. ;)

bloom is better than alot of other remix albums i've heard. they remixed alot of old songs like ice, vox and fumbling towards ecstasy, and there's a really cool song called 'just like me'. i reckon it was worth my money :)

and i did a little digging, and i found the pictures of amy and sarah from the 2003 grammy nominations :)

I'm don't want to buy Bloom now because it has the horrible SonyBGM thing on it. I still want it, but I don't want Sony's crap on my computer.

Sarah and Amy! Geez, Amy is a shortarse.

I love Sarah McLachlan but I'm not really a fan of remix albums....Not sure whether to buy it or not...Though christmas is coming...lol.

Oh yeah, and could one of you kind citizens also explain to me exactly what this Sony/Bmg nasty is please...? Yes, I am a little slow. haha

So far as I know, unless there's a full-on list, Bloom isn't one of the 'infected' cds. We had a list of CDs to pull at work and that wasnt one of them...hmm.

As for the cd...not sure if I'm going to get it. Remix albums are a bit touchy here and there. Some are really good and some arent. I'll need to here more. But on a side note. I do recommend the Beck remix cd, Guerlito. was good.

wtf are you guys talking about?


And thanks for the picture, blacksilverblue :)

"BEWARE OF THIS CD - Sony and BMG have seen fit to include a BS copy protection program on the CD. When you install it into your PC, it will prompt you with a tiny warning and "licence" agreement. If you're like me, you won't read it and just click "yes". Unfortunately, this will then irreversibly install some crap on your hard drive that CANNOT be removed. Its suppose to "download license keys" and "allow you to play and copy the CD". Once the installer has run, there is no way to uninstall all the crap, however. The company, www.sunncomm.com that provides the copy protection software is completely useless in email dialogs about the software. For example, when I wrote them asking how to uninstall the software from my system, their response was, not instructions on how to actually remove it, but rather "our software is a small unobtrusive utility that will not harm your computer in anyway..." Huh? That's not what I asked...

Furthermore, this "copy protection" will not allow you to Rip your own MP3 versions of the tracks - you can Rip them, but they will be corrupted and not sound correct. Using Linux and a few additional other steps, there are ways to Rip your own MP3 version, but this is beyond most typical users."

Update 1: If you beg and pled with sunncomm.com, they will eventually email you a link to an ActiveX program that will uninstall all of the software installed as a part of this CD installation.

Update 2: You can actually Rip an MP3 from this CD using Windows, but it will result only in a relatively low quality tracks. Here are the steps: 1) Use the sunncomm.com program and "rip" a copy of the cd to your HARD DRIVE (tracks will be in a low quality 128bps WMV format unfortunately). 2) Use Windows Media player to burn a "standard CD" using the tracks from Step 1. Step 3) Use your favorite MP3 Ripping tool to Rip MP3s from the CD created in Step 2. The problem with this whole process is, however, that the quality of the final MP3's is pretty poor. The version I Ripped using Linux directly from the actual CD is of much better quality. Not sure what the quality of the complete album in MP3 directly off of Sarah's web site is. Hopefully, better than what you can get using the sunncomm.com round about method...

I'm soo bad at explaining, so this is quoted from an amazon reviewer's comment :)

i forgot to mention, that is annoying, but i still listen to my trusty old cd player, so i don't get many probs :)

Blacksilverblue, there's a link somewhere to the site from Sony with the removal instructions/removal program etc. I'll go looking for it.

And Bloom is on that list of CD's. There's some info posted about it on Sarah's website I believe, and I got an email from her fanclub about it.

I'm not sure if this is the right removal tool, but it's direct from the SonyBMG site:

Just heard the live version of Possession yesterday on the radio... forgot how much I liked that song until that moment. I think it's actually better than the original. Very haunting and beautiful. :)

I actually think most of her songs are better live than the studio versions. You have to listen to the live version of Fear to get the full impact of the song, and my god, her voice. It's brilliant.

I just loaded "Fumbling Towards Ecstasy" onto my iPod. Turns out my parents had it, so I stole it:D So far I really like Ice, Possession, and Fear.

I'm on a total Sarah M kick right now.

She has a beautiful voice. She's one of my dad's favorite singers, so I hear a lot of her. I love "Fallen" and "Adia"!

Possession is such an eerie song. Sarah wrote it about a stalker she had.

Absolutely love Sarah Mclachlan, she has an amazing voice. Favourite songs would have to be Angel, Fallen and Stupid :)

Possession is such an eerie song. Sarah wrote it about a stalker she had.

Really?????? I never would have guessed that in a million years. Was she writing it from the stalker's point of view? I only ask that because of the lines in the chorus "And I would be the one to hold you down/Kiss you so hard/I'll take your breath away." Those lines always just made me think it was about loving someone and not knowing what to do.

I'm really loving "Ice", it's incredibly ethereal. One of my favorites of hers, most def.

Really?????? I never would have guessed that in a million years. Was she writing it from the stalker's point of view?

Yup... till you know the background story it's difficult to guess what the song is about. But yes, it is about this stalker she had.
Anyway, I love that song.

Sarah McLachlan lends her vocals to DMC (from the legendary old-school rap group Run-DMC) track "Just Like Me" for DMC's solo album. The track samples Harry Chapin's chorus for his classic "Cats in the Cradle" and the song and video have to do with DMC finding out after 35 years that he was adopted. Nice video.

Apparently, the version that Sarah does is a different version from the one that's on his album because Will.i.am from the Black Eyed Peas does vocals on the same song.

I finally got "Solace"! :D I'm excited! I didn't think I'd like it that much, but I adore this album as much as I like her others. <3

That would sound interesting. :) I can't wait to hear the song!

I haven't posted in here before, but I should've.

I love Sarah. I've got a few of her albums and really love her music.

Right now I'm addicted to the Piano version of Posession. Does anyone know where I could find sheet music for it? I'd love to be able to play it.

I'm really loving "Ice", it's incredibly ethereal. One of my favorites of hers, most def.

"Ice" is amazing. It's one of my favourites by her. I love how on the Afterglow Live DVD Sarah said that it's probably one of her more depressing songs because it seems that it's her most depressing songs that I'm attracted to although I'm not depressed or sad.

Does anyone know if Sarah will be touring anytime soon? Or, quite possibly, writing any new material?

She's been working on a new album due out later this year. It will be called "Holiday".

Yeeeees. Thank you for that, Ana. Lets see, here . . . . Evanescence is coming out with a new record. Sarah McLachlan is. Seether is releasing an acoustic DVD/CD, John Mayer is releasing a new record, as well as Breaking Benjamin.

That news just put me on cloud nine. THANK-YOU AGAIN!

I've refallen in love with ANGEL. :( That song is just beautiful and her voice. Angelic.

I really, REALLY like Sarah McLachlan--she's one of my favorite artists. She's got a gorgeous voice and looks (especially considering her age, and she has a daughter!). I love her song "Building a Mystery" and the cover she did on "Gloomy Sunday." I also love her song "Angel" too. I got into her not TOO long ago, but definitely a while back--the reason was becasue I'd never heard of her before. *hides head in shame*my best friend is absolutely OBSESSED with her, hugely, enough that I would consider her one of Sarah's biggest fans. Period. So she got me into her, and frankly I think she's awesome. I went to one of her concerts and it was magnificent!!!!!!!!!!!! :D You know what I think would be absolutely great? I think it'd be more exquisite and to-die-for than anything else--if Amy did a duet with Sarah. Seriously, I think I would fall unconsious along with my friend!!!!:p And stay like that for quite a while!!!! LOL!!!!!

especially considering her age
She's only 38, that's not old. :rolleyes:

LOL!:p Now, if she were like fifty, and those looks and that voice, then I'd DEFINITELY be amazed! Not that I'm not already, lol. And have you seen some of her interviews??! Oh my gosh, they are soo dirty! I find it funny!!! (Again, my best friend is obsessed with her, so even if I didn't want to know ANYTHING about her, I'd still be stuck with her. Lmao.) :cool: However that's not a bad thing, right? :p I also think it'd be pretty cool if like Amy did one of her songs, and vice versa for Sarah. Hah, my friend was like (while me excitedly telling her about the songs on The Open Door), "OH MY GOD DID AMY DO A COVER OF SARAH??!!" And me being like, ".....No." That let her down a bit, but we thought it was cool how Sarah has a song of Amy's album, and Amy has a song of Sarah's song too! :D

I just recently really got into Sarah McLachlan. I know I'm a little late! Anyway, I just got her album "Afterglow" and I love it! I can't wait to hear her new stuff.:D

^Good! That's a great album. :)
While you wait for "Holiday", why don't you check out her old stuff as well? "Surfacing", "Fumbling Towards Ecstasy", "Solace" are awesome. Heck! All of her albums are. ;)

Heck, that woman is wonderful! If you can, try to get a hold of "Touch" her very first album. A while back I sensed they were quite scarce, but my Wal-mart has a good stack of them. She wasn't very popular back in the late eighties, but that doesn't change the fact that her music is fantastic. I'll also add that on "Touch", her voice sounds noticeably different from her latter albums. Kind of childlike. Not like the voice of the woman of wisdom we see today.

Anyway, "Surfacing" and "Afterglow" are my favorite of her albums, with "Building a Mystery" always being her best song, in my opinion.

Can't wait for "Holiday"!

I have to say, the changing of her style is so fascinating, it's so strange to listen to Fumbling Towards Ecstacy and then listen to Afterglow... both AMAZING albums, similar but so different at the same time.

Sarah is simply fantastic.

Her older albums (Fumbling Towards Ecstasy, Surfacing) have an extremely dark sound, in both lyrics and in music. At least in my opinion. I love her older stuff, but the transition to Afterglow is pretty interesting. A lot of the lyrics are still "dark", but much of the sound clashes with that, in a way. I like that, a lot. And I love artists who keep their founding qualities, but change and grow a little more with each album. That is Sarah.

Indeed it is. You just summed up everything I think about Sarah. The woman is fantastic.

Fumbling Towards Ecstacy is one of my favorite albums of all time. I can't get over how much I love it, and I hope I never do.

Surfacing is also amazing, as is Afterglow. I just wish she could release albums faster. Hee! But if it takes time to make greatness, I can accept that.

Her new cover of Joni Mitchell's "River" is brilliant... The new album is called "Wintersong" not "Holiday" ... it is a holiday album though :p ... x-mas.

Not even that late, from every site I've been too they've all said October 17, 2006.

I love sarah mclachlan she is very talented and very cool. i love surfacing, mirrorball, and afterglow she rocks!!. i also like that collaboration she did with dmc on just like me.

Oh, I thought "Holiday" was going to be an original album (ie. new songs), and that "Wintersong" was her Christmas' project? :confused:

CLICK HERE. YOU WON'T REGRET IT. (http://www.blackened-sky.net/)

If you're a Sarah fan, click that.... now. It's an acoustic ''Winter Song'' session, and it sounds amazing! You'll have to scroll down a few entries, though. But, all-in-all, it's rather easy to find.

That site has some nice Sarah's quotes...
"If you love large, you’ve got to hurt large. If you’ve got a lot of light, you’ve probably got an equal amount of darkness." -

About the acoustic... it's heavy!! *still d/ling*


Edit.: Beautiful! :)
