She is an angel to the look, to the heart and to the voice. Even when she is quiet you can still hear the angels choir in the background. When she's walking in the dark the stars will follow her path. When she's walking in the light the sun is blended by her beauty.
God bless you Sarah for all your huminatarian work and animal rights causes! You are beautiful and so very talented. This song makes me cry,it is such a nice good soothing melodic song! GO CANADA!
how I miss the 90s, I remember when this song came out in 1997! Always liked this track and admired her voice, but now my jaw fell to the floor after seeing and hearing her guitar playing. Unlike the other artists accoustic renditions of their songs, which simply sound shallow and crippled, this one stands out of the crowd - you can swear you hear more than one guitar at once with those catchy little riffs known from the record version. She's def. skilled musician.
I've listened to this song at least twice a day for about two weeks now and I still not tired of it. Subtle power from a beautiful woman, and I love her smile.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Oh what happened to her? Fumbling was great, but everything since has been mediocre, a few singles aside. Hopefully she changes things up a bit should she choose to continue with music in the future.
This is a very beautiful live performance, even with the alteration of the lyrics. And that was only two words of the whole song, its not like it wrecked it! She was still heavenly. I love her, and this song is very special. :)
just as an aside, I am a musician as well..so I am intimately acquainted with the battle between 'creative control' and the interference of one's financial backers. Before judging artists (or anyone), it helps if one walks a few miles in their shoes to appreciate the challenges they face. If a star like Sarah has to deal with these issues, imagine what unknown artists face when writing/recording/releasing their work. Smaller indie labels may be a good way to go for freedom, but pay much less.
I saw Frank Black replace the word 'fuck' with the word 'cumquat' during a small live gig in Toronto maybe 20 yrs ago for his first solo album - there were kids etc. in the audience, no biggie... you never know who is listening or where the show is being televised... it is brave to release a song wiith profanity in it to begin with when the label often wants to be more mainstream & accessible... sometimes economics outweigh artistic vision... I do not blame any artist who makes lyrics more tame
I agree. That one changed word is bullshit. It ruins the power of the verse. On the album it says, "You're so beautiful, a beautiful fucked-up man." Censorship makes me sick. And self-censorship is even worse. If you word has to be bleeped, let the Calvinists who run the capitalist show bleep it.
one word changed..YET it crushes a poetic intensity that those who psychologically wrap themselves around this exquisite song expect to hear, want to hear, and NEED to hear, so they can FEEL the depth of the song's meaning reverberate within their bones..that's what makes music the "Universal Language"..the profound ability of the artist to reach into the 'emotional guts' of the listener and literally forge the song into their very existence.."fuck lyrical censorship"..it skins the song alive..
thanks very much..seems one of the "Calvinists" feel the comment was worth a thumbs down..it appears that the 'man' Sarah is referring to in her song isn't the only one who is "fucked up"..LOLOLOL..
Yea, the only reason your thumbs-up-thumbs-down rating is back to 0 is that I canceled the -1 with a thumbs-up vote. It's funny, but it still makes me vaguely ill.
one of the few singers of today who can sing live and sound AMAZING!!! not like all those pop singers layered in fake stuff to make them sound better than they are
How I would love to meet my favorite artists and tell them how much I enjoy their music! It would be a dream to meet her and talk to her about her music.
guys if ne one knows this exact tab, please msg me - nuthing ive seen compares to what shes playing, ive been trying to follow by ear and video and cant get. please help!
i cant get enough of this music at the moment. its utterly brilliant and funniest of all is the fact my dad got me into this music which is very embaressing and very amazing at the same time
shes a hell of a cutie also ... she is SO my type, deep and a true beauty ~
inside and out ~

I'd say Sarah McLachlan has earned the right to present her work any way she pleases. She was projecting a different mood in this rendition, anyway.
