      *face palm* we weren’t the last ones. If you think that then you are a small minded fool. Look to the comment about other musicians and then add “Hana” and “Grimes” to that list. Hana is (I very much believe) the Millennial Sarah McLachlan.

      To a minor extent yes, she made some contributions to the lyrics and production. She certainly didn't do it all though .. not in the least, and definitely not by herself (regardless of the endless internet sources, that's not how the industry works) Saying this from direct experience (Arista/Sony) with her releases.

    She passed away 2 years ago and now I'm trying to start all over. This kind of music brings me back but also inspires me to begin living in earnest again. I know what's important now.
    There was so much inspiration back then. I miss that time.

      I think the technology and tech addiction has affected us socially, spiritually, energetically and likely in many other ways that we don’t fully understand yet. It feels like an entirely different planet than the one we grew up on. I miss those simpler times when kids weren’t shooting up schools and people pretty much behaved themselves. I feel bad for the kids today who grow up glued to smart phones and TikTok. Watch the trailer for Generation Zapped. This shit ain’t too good for us. We also need to restore the Smith Mundt Act because I think the propaganda has broken the brains of many Americans and deliberately sewed division. They’ve divided the people so the corrupt leaders could conquer the hell out of us and sell our country out from under us. Sorry for the lengthy ramble.

Such powerful lyrics sung by someone with such ethereal vocals. This is truly a powerhouse song because of the melody, lyrics and vocal. Definitely in my top three SM faves along with "Time" and "Possession."

    And led me from my home
    And sweet surrender
    Is all that I have to give

    Take me in, no question's asked
    You strip away the ugliness that surrounds me
    (Who are you?)
    Are you an angel?

    When I'm down here on my knees

    Is all that I have to give

    The touch of your hand
    I would be the one to fall
    I miss the little things
    I miss everything about you
    Doesn't mean much
    It doesn't mean anything at all
    The life I left behind me is a cold room
    (Who are you?)
    And sweet surrender
    Is all that I have to give

      I am the very first of the Millennial generation (went to high school with GenX), and I am very thankful for all these artists--male and female--from the 90s. They formed a large part of my growing up from jr. high through college. I miss these women these soulful singer song writing breaths of fresh air. Ethereal is the correct way to describe them. Sarah McLaughlan right up there.
      I think they perfectly encapsulated the beauty of youth, love, but also the experience and expectation of the future. That is a bit nostalgic, a bit anticipating, also anxious, but know we must experience what's to come. It captured a feeling of careful prescience.

      There are many that didn't live to see 2024 and I ask that You would touch & completely heal All the families of the people around us that are dealing with loss of loved ones, loss of employment, their homes and betrayal from family and friends.
      I ask El Shaddai that You would heal all broken relationships in all families and friendships and bring forgiveness and reconciliation for them all for 2024 in the mighty Name of Jesus Christ.
      Heavenly Father El Shaddai, I lift up Casondra Jent and all others that You know by name before You right now.
      Words have the power of life-changing encouragement and life-altering detrimental damage to us. Almighty GOD, Your Word tells us
      in the book of Proverbs 18:21 (Amplified Bible): "Death and Life Are in the Power of the Tongue, And those who Love it and Indulge it will Eat its Fruit and Bear the Consequences of their Words."
      Words and actions hurt us the most when they come from family, friends and even bosses and colleagues from our workplace on a daily basis. Words have the power to heal and harm.
      Heavenly Father El Shaddai I ask that You would remove ALL emotional and psychological trauma from Casondra Jent's mind, body and soul in Jesus Name.
      I ask that You El Shaddai give Casondra Jent strength and courage to forgive herself. Give her the courage to love herself and the knowledge of knowing that she is truly a great blessing and an amazing woman who has touched the lives of those around her.
      Holy Spirit, help Casondra Jent to see herself the way that You do: a precious soul that has everything it takes to be successful and the grace to handle every challenge in front of her in 2024 and beyond.
      Holy Spirit, send ministering Angels 😇 😇 to protect her from all harm and danger, both seen and unseen.
      Holy Spirit, remove all demonic spirits of doubt, rejection, depression, self-harm, anger, bitterness, unforgiveness, and suicide from Casondra Jent right now in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ.
      Almighty GOD, soak and saturate every part of Casondra Jent with Your unconditional Love, unconditional Grace, unconditional understanding, unconditional compassion, unconditional lovingkindness and unconditional Mercy.
      Almighty GOD, give Casondra Jent Your
      strength, wisdom and discernment to forgive All those inside her family circle ⭕, her circle ⭕ of friendships and workplace colleagues that hurt her immensely by their words and actions towards her in the past and present.
      Almighty GOD, heal Casondra Jent's mind, body and soul inside and out with the precious cleansing Blood of Jesus Christ.
      Almighty GOD, give Casondra Jent Your
      strength, wisdom and discernment to move forward. Draw her closer to Your unconditional love and mercy. Reveal to her just how much she's truly loved by You Almighty GOD in Jesus Name.
      Thank You Almighty GOD so much for what You're doing for her now and for the new chapter you're doing in Casondra Jent's life in 2024. And I thank You for what You're doing in the lives of those around us as it unfolds this year. In the mighty Name of Jesus Christ, I pray, Amen.
      Quick side note: El Shaddai means Almighty GOD in Hebrew). Just wanted to make sure that everyone knows that.

      NYC FoodPhoto Sarah said on VH1's storytellers that the song was influenced by the film ''Leaving Las Vegas and how these 2 pathetic people fell in love despite all of their flaws and all the ugly things that surround their lives (One an alcoholic, the other a prostitute). They were truly accepting of one another in spite of everything. One dies and that is why she says I miss everything about you.

    🎶it doesn't mean much
    it doesn't mean anything at all
    the life I've left behind me
    is a cold room
    I've crossed the last line
    from where I can't return
    where every step I took in faith
    betrayed me
    and led me from my home💔💔
    and sweet
    sweet surrender
    is all that I have to give
    you take me in
    no questions asked
    you strip away the ugliness
    that surrounds me
    are you an angel
    am I already that gone
    I only hope
    that I won't disappoint you
    when I'm down here
    on my knees
    and sweet
    sweet
    sweet surrender
    is all that I have to give
    sweet
    sweet
    sweet surrender
    is all that I have to give
    and I don't understand💔💔
    by the touch of your hand
    I would be the one to fall
    I miss the little things
    oh I miss everything
    About you 💔💔
    it doesn't mean much
    it doesn't mean anything at all
    the life I left behind me
    is a cold room💔💔
    sweet

    sweet surrender

      It doesn't mean anything at all without emotion, the song comes alive with This angels voice, and instruments are equal in their heartfeltness. Sarah.

    I was 18 years old, driving to work a shift at Blockbuster Music when this song hit the radio for the first time. The DJ, as well as most listeners tuning into Station 98.7 in So Cal at the time, was awe struck by the song. So much so he played it twice in a row. That was the first and last time I ever heard a radio station love a song so much to play it back to back.

      for pop music only the 70's even compare to the brilliance that was the 90's.

    I remember the first time I heard this song. Driving around Detroit on a cold winter's night - right from those stuttering distorted guitar chords and that voice. It doesn't mean much. I was hooked! Who was this lady? Of course, the rest is history and like a lot of the other commentators it does make me want to cry too. I miss everything about you. Wow.

    I haven't heard this in way too long. I always loved it. And now it just gave me goosebumps hearing it again. This is one of the greatest tracks ever. This one is going straight to my hall of fame list.

    This is one of the greatest produced songs I can remember. Her vocal is very high in the mix but sounds great. The toggle switch guitar intro is great.

      Agreed, this song is a masterpiece... The writing, her singing, the guitar toggling creates so much 'atmosphere' in the mix... The whole song is an awesome piece of work.

    Guitars that sound like screen door springs and a moving bass line that captivates! Ethereal vocals that stay with you. Phenomenal song that doesn't get old!
