- With over 30 years in the recording industry, Sarah McLachlan is a multi-platinum singer and songwriter best known for her intimate vocals and relatable lyrics. Canadian-born, McLachlan is a multiple Grammy and Juno Award winning artist who has sold over 40 million albums throughout her career and was recently inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame. McLachlan has also been awarded the Elizabeth Cady Stanton Visionary Award and is an Officer of the Order of Canada. In addition to her personal artistic efforts, in 1997 McLachlan founded the Lilith Fair tour, which showcased female musicians and brought more than 2 million people together over its three-year run. Lilith Fair raised over $7 million for local and national charities and helped launch the careers of numerous female performers. The festival was the most successful all-female music event and was the top-grossing touring festival during its run.
In 2002 McLachlan founded her non-profit organization, the Sarah McLachlan School of Music. The School of Music serves over 1,000 at-risk and underserved youth in Vancouver and Edmonton each year and provides, at no cost: • A high-quality music program staffed with talented mentors, youth facilitators & guest artists • A space for at-risk and underserved children and youth to develop the confidence they need to explore their strengths and overcome their challenges • An opportunity for students to develop strong relationships with their peers and instructors • A long-term commitment that nurtures trust, growth, and personal development The school is funded entirely through private donations and McLachlan covers 100% of the administrative costs through her Foundation, so that all funds raised go directly to the student's education. The scientific evidence of music's value is increasing every day, there is no doubt that music has a positive effect on every child's life.

Enough said ...😺
WELL SAID!!!!
Singers perform songs, true artist share brief glimpses of their soul, what a beautiful gift!
I feel like I've been dead musically after this song touched me, I was alive again. God what a gift you are Sarah... both your songs and your singing. LOVE!
Sublime....Thank you so much...
Somehow, after many years of hearing her sing this song, Sarah McLachlan’s voice and words still manages to reach something inside me.
Yeah wow. She's better than ever. Goosebumps and tears from listening to that.
I'm a Hardcore Heavy Metal Maniac🤘
BUT......
This song and performance is
AMAZING🎯
Just BEAUTIFUL.
An emotional life force that nearly 30 years later its message and delivery are as moving as first time i heard this on LATER .
That was such a raw performance from a truly beautiful woman....
I feel like I was struck by lightning. Speechless. Beautiful.
She is Intelligent Beautiful Lady Awesome Talent Amazing Timeless Flawless a True Jewel 💎 for All!!! Thank you Sarah.
No Words can feel the emotion she just gave me.
I am 100% a gay man, but if Sarah wants to sing to me I will go straight for her
After hearing from Sarah what this song was about and the story behind it, I was pretty bummed out. I had always interpreted it a much more positive and romantic song. I still hear it that way, but it's a little different now.
(The School of Music serves over 1,000 at-risk and underserved youth in Vancouver and Edmonton each year and provides, at no cost.) That's awesome. What a great opportunity you give these kids!!!! Bravo!!
I love u sarah.. Forever
Its like revisit a lover.. Same feeling
Kiss and hugs
Oh my goodness
I swear I'm on the edge of my seat watching her, sing and her piano playing is mesmerizing. I'm officially in love!
Wow! You could hear a pin drop! Just wow! Love it! ❤❤👍👍

SUPER LINDO,DEMAIS,EXELENTE,MARAVILHOSO,ESPETACULAR.
Wow. Great songs come go. But sarah. Put in perspective love. Going on finding love mm. Good song
I would love to have Sarah McLachlan and Amy Lee from evanescence sing a acoustic duet in concert in studio or concert.!!!
Her voice and beauty have always mesmerized me
Wow shes is so pretty, much more attractive than her youthful years. Voice sounds so refined to.
Incredible version. ❤🔥
I love hearing this song on Mirrorball, but it's a weird choice for a performance to a bunch of top-percenters who have the resources to make the world a better place.
They prob love this song the most. Sick basterds
Stunning awesome - took my breath away..!!!
It must be great fun to create different versions of such a wonderful song.
Sometimes it seems worth being older to have grown up in the 60's and 70's. And here is proof that some of us have aged better than others. ❤
shes the best
Wow
She is absolutely amazing. Beautiful inside and out.
Saw this live at Lilith Fair 1998ish, Lakewood Amphitheatre, Atlanta, GA.
As a longtime fan who has all her CDs and admired her as an artist and a political activist. I would be very very curious to get her perspective as a Canadian woman on the problem of fatherless homes and the damage that modern extreme feminism has done to the female minds of Western society. Oh by the way great live performance of this classic track.
Great comment. Of course one would have to be under a rock not to know of Sarah, but funny thing is, although I'm' quite a music fan, and even originally Canadian, she just never got on the radar for me much. About a month ago I watched one of her videos that ended up in my UA-cam feed......and I was instantly mesmerized. I have been on a Sarah binge since then, watching dozens of videos of music and interviews with her. What a an absolutely beautiful, talented, unpretentious, captivating woman. One really just can't put it into words.
But just like you, I'm very hip to men's issues and have been for almost about 15 years. That said, and as I'm sure you probably know, I learned during my Sarah binge of the last few weeks that she is a very strong feminist. Even still, she is probably the only woman that I know of, and I follow these issues closely, and definitely the only woman of high profile, that expresses strong feminist views while not exuding strong resentment or misandry when she speaks on the matter. It seems as thought she really, honestly just has believed the narrative and comes from a sincere place of wanting to make a difference. Of course she is grossly misinformed. I was for most of my life as well, until about 40 years old, so I can relate completely.
I even heard her describe herself in several interviews as being a "conservative woman from conservative parents"......while still espousing strong feminist positions. And I really think that she is sincere in this and doesn't see the contradiction.
But to wrap it up, and obviously you can tell I find this fascinating by how much I have written here, (I've been thinking many hours about this over the last few weeks), I couldn't help but notice that I don't see really anything much from her as far as interviews and public engagement over the last few years. Since about the date of this video actually. And the little that I have been able to find, I haven't heard her say a word about women's or social issues. Being that she is obviously such a bright, introspective person that has been very vocal with activism, I just can't help but think that the last few years have opened her eyes to the reality of the situation. Just like is happening for millions of others, in light of metoo and the continuing tsunami of false allegations, not to mention the horrific lockdowns of Canada and its every encroaching totalitarian state.
She deeply loves that man. Still to this day. You can tell
I never did think this was a stalker song, but her own deep guttural desire. Love it forever.
You are misinformed regarding this song’s origin lol
Breathtaking
Great singing and instrumentals. Try and make it godly always. Sorry am using my mum's phone number. From Seunla.
Her music speaks to my soul I could cry
wowwwwww
Epic......
