I genuinely feel like her beautiful voice works with all sorts of production.. I know fans resonate with different records but Siberia is super special..
I met her years ago, in Toronto she's such a nice person I was with an event promoter that knew her and she invited us up to her apartment i remember it so well, still to this day, probably because we were and still are video game and wow nerds just talked about wow. Its awesome to see her cover this song.
I have not seen Sarah in twenty years, as I was a gardener on her beautiful property. As soon as you entered her gates you were overwhelmed by a sense of peace and tranquility. I miss that.
It's genuinely a solidarity moment to know someone else went to 5-6 high schools. It means no connections, nobody knows you later on. That's what happened to me. I remember one friend, and 3 possible acquaintances. And I teacher, who I don't say made a difference in my bigger picture, it's that she was kind and liked me. A very lonely, trying so hard, know nothing. So, beautiful song by a beautiful lass.
We must be about the same age because yep, this throws me directly back into 9th grade and having a Sarah McLachlan songbook that I taught myself to fake on piano using the guitar chords.
Dude. I remember being 15 years old, didnt want to go to school and get bullied. Watching her music video in that one morning made me carry on through the day.
Lights puts almost as much heart and soul as Sarah into this decades old number, but I still prefer Sarah's rendition, especially since it it the original.
🤔 I’ve never heard of Lights before now, but don’t think THIS song was a good, or easy choice for her to attempt even though she did her best. I’m NOT implying she isn’t talented and believe she is, but SARAH ‘owns’ the original which has been around for years and is known by many people. For this reason my assumption is a lot who listen to Lights cover it are automatically, intentionally or not, going to ‘compare’ the two. I honestly don’t think anyone could do it the justice it deserves other than 🌟 Sarah herself, and imho it’s NOT fair to fault or degrade someone else bc their interpretation doesn’t come across as being equally well done!
The guitar was cringe-y. I like this song, and it has a forward, very present electric guitar in the original, but it's smooth and lays fittingly in the mix. This was way out in front, not in tune, and had about the tone you'd expect from a 90's Zoom 505 at a middle school talent show. It's a beautiful part when it's right, but the sound engineer would have been best to lay that back as far as he could get away with.
@@Kenpachi519 Not only that.... As an American and 37-year-old mom huge fan of Sarah McLachlan... I at first thought that her voice didn't sound that great but as I continued to listen it's not that it wasn't good it was that it was different from Sarah's and I believe she intended to make it her own because she knew she couldn't make it Sarah McLachlan because only Sarah can do that. So I think she was being respectful in being herself and not trying to outshine Sarah.. I think when people say that something is cringy they need to look deeper at it because I think it's really that they're cringing at their own thought system. You're telling yourself that something has to be the same exact way all the time and unfortunately that's not how evolution works so if you want to stay in the past and not grow then by all means cringe but if we want to evolve as a species we have to embrace the differences.

Jesus, what happened to Lights?! I haven't seen her in years (just listened to her music casually as it came out), and it was such a surreal moment to hear her voice come out of that skeleton with boobs 😂 aging like milk 😂
Ironically you must be death lol . Get your ears checked . I can hear her loud & clear . Great vocals . Very nice voice . Nothing wrong with the vocal mix lol 😮sydney australia 🦘 may be you have wax ? 12 nov 2024k
No combo like nostalgia and Lights, enough to make this grown man tear up😢
My goodness Sarah is still so beautiful, maybe more beautiful than ever?
Queen Lights crushing it as always

Lights! Haven't seen her in years. I'm so happy.

Lights cover album anyone? This was great. One of my favorites covering another one of my favorites.
Simply a beautiful performance. This song is childhood in 4.5 minutes.
Beautiful! ❤

I just spotted the bit toward the end where Sarah's singing along -- which I find super endearing. You know you're doing a cover right when... :)

Lovely!
Awesome 👍❤😊
actually gives me chills
Awesome
I love Sarah McLaughlin ❤🎶

YAY LIGHTS
Still have a crush on her
Wow , she took the song to another level …and that guitar , just Wow ❤
You could barely hear her. Guitar was way over the top. I think you should revisit the original if you think this is next level
@@thepeddle - Agreed. This was pretty bad, but that's just my opinion.
@@Aaron_RevisI don’t like to say anything 👎 negative about someone but imo this wasn’t a good song for Lights to sing.
Commendatore!!
❤...1!
Everyone dressed to the nines, then there's the drummer lol
Lmaoooo story of almost all rock bands that dress to the nines on live shows
Most common example would be Death Cab and Two Doors Cinema Club
LOL it's okay...as an amateur drummer, he's buried behind a drum set. No one will notice if he's not slinging drum solos 😂
grade nine slow-dance song of the year?

Ironically a bad vocal mix. Barely hear her. 😮
Dude on the Les Paul ... excellent work !!!
Jeez... this guitarist is the definition of overplaying. And he's way too high in the mix.
Great performance otherwise, though.
Most of that’s in the song but yeah it’s too loud and has too much high end on the guitar and chorus or something.
@@B-kn8yb Yeah, I think it's the volume that really bugged me. I think if it was lower in the mix it would have been fine.
@ well it’s not only that but more distant sounding in the original, blends into the background more. Good ear though for noticing that.

@@andrewcammer2535 100% Especially the Zoom 505 comment, hahaha! That's exactly what it sounds like.
As a guitar player, all I want to say is „turn down the f*cking guitar, it‘s ruining the mix“!
No offense to Sarah, but Lights is the greatest performer to ever come out of Canada.
Now that's funny.
Everyone is entitled to an opinion. In this case, you are wrong by great margins.
Can’t make out what she’s saying
Cringe fest. This was painful to watch. Wow! When you watch something like this, you realize how good and how truly amazing Sarah McLachlan really is.
Man shut up and show some respect for Lights. She is one of the most influential artists of Canada and yet you got no respect 🥱

Its actually not that great of a song. Just a bunch of words
She is way more talented than you so why judge 🥱
Ironic to win a songwriting award for a song title repeated over and over and over...

Yeah, we can all hear her but not as much as the guitar.
@VeritatisQ I'll have to check the guitar
