Sarah McLachlan - Building A Mystery

[awhiteman1986]

hey sarah marry me you sexy sexy woman. she looks great with short hair

[wensibelle]

God look at that face! I was/am obsessed..

[Indigovbat]

This was the first CD we ever owned in my house, in '97...I still have the original. It still plays.

[heisman79]

So damn fine!

[jdogg8830]

this was made in 04, feels like 90s, sarah can make good music in both eras

[benvines]

@jdogg8830 Uh, your intuition was right. This song came out in 1997...

[learrus]

Lolo this is what its like being a starvin artist weirdo in the city...

[nightmares4q]

shes hot..oh yes..so hot

[fastfretting]

I KNOW STINGSTREET AND I ASKED HIM ABOUT THIS SONG. HE SAID THIS WAS NOT THE WRONG SONG. THIS WAS THE RIGHT SONG,FOR SURE

[McRocket]

First, I did buy her Surfacing CD on the basis of this song...and I was not sorry I did.

Now for the very superficial part. Obviously she is a superficially attractive woman - but this video I have always had a difficult time watching - for some reason she looks and seems staggeringly attractive in this. I simply cannot look at too long - it's like looking right at the Sun - the vision of her will get burned into my brain...which will do me no good at all when I am on a date with a women.

[hectoremosexy]

TE AMOOO NO ME CANSO DE DECIRLO SARAH

[fastfretting]

Sarah you are so good looking,do not let anyone tell you different.

[shannonginter37]

this is for you my uncle curvin this was playing of your passing. one of kind you are still alive inside of me.

[NCsmallCHILDREN]

god she is beautiful

[hyperchipper]

@NCsmallCHILDREN yes, but with a fucked up mind ! lol

[4TheCacti]

Whoa.. nostalgia

[emstarelli]

sarah is amazing. that is all. much love!

[MegaGeekdaddy]

Thanks for the visual. I was thinking the same thing. I'm now 29 and that seems like it was yesterday this was on MTV. Wow, how time flys and things change. If I would have only known then the things to come. I would have cheeriest every second of it. Live was so easy then. No fully of responsibility. Wasting my time with friends didn't seem valuable during those days....enjoy it while ya can kids..I know ya hear it a lot but trust us....ENJOY IT

[mon123treal]

Those were the best times, I was in College ( In Montreal, Dawson College). With my pager on the side of my pants, and my discman on my hand. It was the begining of the Internet, Wow so much has change. And this song bring me back all the good time that I had. So cool

[imortalsappy]

Holy crap i thought this was the 2000's. Why was the 90s so fricken awesome for music!?

[desala2007]

2004? um, this song is older than that. it came out in the 90s. fail, vevo...

[CEOkiller]

@desala2007 1997?

[fastfretting]

I love this video! Sarah when are you going back on tour? If you are then someone needs to put it on your website. thanks, I would like to attend.

[annshanae69]

I love this song! It reminds me of the old days when I would just sit with my best friend on the river walk and look at the sun come up in the horizon and wondering about the days to come.

[urbansavage84]

HUGE crush on Sarah McLachlan when this song came out.

[NismoFinder]

Is it weird that I get turned on when she says Beautiful Fucked Up Man??...

[gravelandgrain100]

..the best

[Pawlzee]

gotta love this.

[amazinglysexy26]

aaaaaaah yess.... music from way back in my days whe I was young!

[Ahstaroth]

Well, at least I can listen to one of her songs knowing it isn't being used as a death dedication all over the country.

[JokesterJackler]

DEXTER!@~

[spottedliver]

Looks like a painting on the first scene of the door. And look at David's hands as they close the little painted door. They're as long as a Vampire. I know it sounds cheesy, but they look like that old feller, Nosferuto.,

[explodingboner]

@spottedliver yeah, parts of this video are inspired by german expressionism, particularly the films "nosferatu" and "the cabinet of doctor caligari." lots of emphasis on bizarre angles and weird lighting and shadows with even weirder painted backdrops

[jodakiller132]

Really good song.. I am just to immature to get into this song.. it is a little too mellow.. so is all her songs BUT "SILENCE" THAT IS A MASTERPIECE INSANELY BEAUTIFUL METAPHOR --> The White wave!

[PotzyMccoy]

The faces she makes.... I know I'm not the only one that can't look away when this is playing.

[Davez621]

The tune to this song kind of reminds me of that song Sonny Came Home.

[asdflkewmx]

"A faith that died before Jesus came"

[NinjaLids]

fave song by her <3 :D

[lorendorky]

Man oh man, the guitars and production on this album are stellar!

[angel2rx]

a beautiful fucked up man.

i wake up screaming to sometimes.

[mountainhigh88]

mysterous simplicity

[MsLulu215]

THIS is the song that got me officially hooked on Sarah McLachlan! LOVE her!

[ChrisRane]

damn she looks good here... wow

[SheHidalgo]

lovely !

[valiumboys]

Sarah, you are enchanting, beautiful, mysterious and breathtaking. I'd love to build a mystery with you.

[toyouiwill]

I am building a lego castle.

[donyboi]

nova scotia

[bigcheeseole]

Great song and she is SEXY as hell!!!!

[s0n152]

THE BEST SONG BY HER! I LOVE THIS SONG! This was the song to end Charlotte's Web. :D LONG LIVE SARAH MCLACHLAN!

[JakiraStrong]

truly wonderful

[ShortySOM]

Beautiful fucked up man

[SuperNumber19]

It hurts when I pee. :(

[praetorianc130]

This woman's extraordinary beauty and voice has haunted me since I saw this video for the very first time in 1998.

Disturbing.

[robbchr]

I'm a dude and love this song. One of the best of the 90's.

[sergiolad]

@robbchr thats a little homophobic dont you think.....?? I mean what is wrong with dudes liking this kind of music..?? or are we suppose to like only metal and rock...? Its really not to insult you but I think your a little square

[robbchr]

@sergiolad I think even Sarah McLachlan would agree that she has far more female than male fans. Nothing homphobic about that comment at all.

BTW, it's you're not your. As in "you're really overreacting to my comment."  Settle down, Chief.

[sergiolad]

@robbchr No it's not that.... I mean I know I might be overreacting but I come across that way of thinking way to often and it really bugs me and since I don't really know you I can't say for sure if you are one of those persons that truly think that only girls are allowed to like pop music. and for my bad orthography and spend way to much time in the chats and you're becomes your or are "r" love "luv" well you get my drift but thanx for the correction

[MichaelConrad1D]

@robbchr yup

[2chauncy]

Is she singin' bout blacke people?

[Wartank000]

Sarah's Poetry in music is simply amazing

[jmolly3080]

Damn shes so hot.

[EBKCuz]

Sarah is like the hot school teacher you always want to....well you know what I'm talking about.

[D0ntTaseM3Br0]

Im glad to know i been alive to hear her peak with her music when i became a teenager.. i turned 12 when she broke out in 1997. She is one of the most talented singers in the world.

[gingersnap914]

@telejimmy57

for you jimmy.

[carnivalzebra]

you live in a church, where you sleep with voodoo dolls

[stingstreet]

Sarah, when this video hit the screen i was not listening to alot of secular music.When you said something about JESUS it made take notice.Your face,voice,and words spoke to me in a way that i felt like i knew you.You made a difference in my life and thats mysterious in itself.I still listen to this album and i love your contribution to music.Iam a 57 yr old religious man. Maybe one day i will see you in concert.

[naf1891]

@stingstreet Wrong song, You're looking for 'possesion'.

[stingstreet]

Sarah is

[Carlisle412]

@stingstreet ... awesome. :)

[cochino261]

dis bitch is fine

[gamblinman]

Awesome, beautiful - words fail me.

[whatwouldjesuswhip]

I will never buy anything that come up before the video I want to watch. Do you hear that youtube. I know spitting in the ocean here.

[cookieman38111]

@whatwouldjesuswhip I agree with sir!!!

[boobitalicios]

THIS IS A FUCKING GOOD SONG!

BRING BACK THE 90'S

[xNattWorldx]

@boobitalicios This is from 2004.

[bobakazooboy]

@xNattWorldx No, its from 1999.

[VANESSA07251]

Me encanta la canción!!!!



[BlackdogScratch]

Does anyone know what AstorWear is? Yeah... I once thought she said "ass to wear", no. It's AstorWear. Clothing line baaaaack in the day popular with the new wave or progressive peeps!

[whatwouldjesuswhip]

@BlackdogScratch  astrowear.ca

[BlackdogScratch]

Does anyone know what AstorWear is?

[HannaSheramna]

@BlackdogScratch Rasta wear. "Rasta" is short for rastafarian, a cult in Jamaica. The wear red, gold, & green clothing.

[BlackdogScratch]

@HannaSheramna

Nonono... AstorWear. not Rasta wear. Sorry, yeah, came into knowing 'bout that back in the late 80's maybe earlier. Dig rasta though, blazing a spleef just know. :)

[MorganChaos]

@BlackdogScratch I think it's rasta wear. That's what it sounds like, and that's what the official lyrics say.

[scobratec]

bring back the female artists of the 90's!!! Sarah, Natalie Merchant, Tori Amos, Lisa Loeb, Liz Phair, Shirley Manson, Bjork, and Harriet Wheeler!!!

[TheCocytan]

@scobratec you cannot leave out Fiona Apple, Alanis Morisette, 10k Maniacs, Jewel, TRACI CHAPMAN!!! anyone who participated in the Lilith Fair :)

and on another platform; En Vogue, Salt n' Pepa, Janet Jackson, Aaliyah (:/)

[TheCocytan]

@TheCocytan lawl, it's late/early. I forgot one of my tops......Gwenny. Miss Stefani leading No Doubt was Ultimate.

[empathictempest79]

I remember during 1997 when I was still in high school, I told some of my homies that I found Sarah McLachlan to be one of the hottest women I've seen yet at the time. My boys looked at me like I was crazy; they said that she was "too old" and I should be finding younger female musicians to be hot, not her. I told them they were out of their minds for not thinking she is hot.

[xNewHipHopDailyx]

Wow this is an amazing song!

[joelscopeland]

I guess I never heard enough from Sarah all these years. Eloquent, sensual, her soulful voice is like the gentle movement of a calm ocean; subtle yet dangerous. A brilliant writer and gifted singer, I hope to see her in concert and to thank her for sharing her amazing gift with all of us.

[nailz9ine]

 I have only 2 things 2 say and what I have to say is the only 2 things that ever need to be said or heard about Sarah.....1.When one passes, and gets anywhere near the gates of heaven, I contend it will be Sarahs voice you hear welcoming you to heaven.....2. I hear alot of cussing in responses 2 her music so,...she has the voice and character of an Angel, so when critiquing her music, give her music and VOICE respect by not cussing about it...yeah?.......

[emeraldrubies]

I know a beautiful fucked up man. This ones for you.

[DawnCherryful]

makes me think of the Moody Blues phrase,"pin prick holes in a colorless sky, let insipid figures of light pass by." Such a beautiful song; I never tire of it. She only blinked twice; didn't realize not blinking is hot, lol! i'll have to use that.

[Puboffender]

THIS version is "soft,.gentle sex"

The MIRRORBALL version is "rough sex"

And either one is GREAT sex!!

She is about as brilliant a writer - and as sexual a singer - as I have ever seen.

I have never seen her in performance, but I wait for the day.

And the fact that she's separated / divorced??? HAD to be his fault.

[Puboffender]

[strictlyj]

A great Canadian talent. Loving Sarah! She represents Canada at its finest. I'm a Canadian living in Europe right now. Canada is the best country in the wolrd!

[raspberrymuffin]

This takes me back to my high school years when this song was new. I loved this song then, and still love it now. Sarah rocks!

[carloscarlosio]

[doug252008]

[justplayfm]

This video was just added to a music playlist at JustPlay.fm

[Bexy82]

That's what I call a great artist from Canada! She's just amazing!

[DominoRyder]

I used to think she was unbelievably fit. I liked when they had pretty singers in the 90s who didnt have to dress like sluts to look good

[scentcrazed]

fuck the bleep! fuck censorship.

[chriscass1982]

@scentcrazed Right there with you!

[CoastGuardIDC]

Too bad she can't be from Macon, Georgia......and a dedicated conservative....

[bigfatchodez]

WHAT IF GOD WAS ONE OF US

[DrErkencho]

@bigfatchodez

If he is he should be put to jail, he has committed so many crimes against humanity he'll be safer there than left on his own out in the streets.

[theBlinding7]

This was from a time when women didn't have to resort to sleeping with record producers (Joss and Christina), wear costumes to get attention away from their mugs (GaGa) or sell sex to children (Britney, Nicki and every other pop tart).

[smurfornge]

In 1997 I was all, "'Beautiful fucked up man', yep, that's me and Mulder she's talking about!"

[mariskaisthebest]

@smurfornge LMAO, I always thought the same thing about those lyrics! I love knowing someone else felt the same way :)

[SMDB82]

goddamn i miss music videos like this

[randomazed]

When I first heard this song on the radio, I was blown away by her lovely, ethereal voice. This is still one of my favorites.

[HannaSheramna]

This video is so....different.

[Broleygurl7]

She has a Beautiful Magical Surrendering voice, it makes you stop what you're doing and sit and listen to this Magic come from Sara...Keep that voice Sara..I still wanna see you in concert again....

[theeasybeats]

she must have met this man online

[butterflychic728]

"you're a beautiful a beautiful fucked up man" ...love that line!

[SFMonster]

Her appearance in this video seems to have laid the blueprint for all women I've found attractive since.

[tutt55]

In other videos, she is simply gorgeous. In this one, she's flat-out hot.

[Infernogodofwitch]

Everyone guess what.... I just raped the replay button :O

[Jaydengenira]

Sarah Mclachlan is the bomb..both men and women love her. She has a huge lesbian following, and women know what they like and are picky and choose real talent

[YevKassem6288]

I didn't care for Sarah's music when she was in her heyday but... I think I'm in love with her now. I'll take her and Beth Gibbons over any of those 'pop' star chicks eight days a week.

[PotentialGrows]

ATTENTION: Wouldn't it be GREAT if there was a CONTAGIOUS virus INVENTED that would SPREAD LOVE,changing the HEARTS & MINDS of everyone it came in contact with?? like O..M..Goddddd..I'd be SOOOOOOO COOLLLL.Lets revive the cycle of LOVE! :) A love that does not love only the PHYSICAL.

[whatwouldgjdo]

Her and Alanis - Most beautiful women EVER!!!

I'm moving to Canada.

[UndercoverCracker]

@whatwouldgjdo Alanis is ugly...

[comicBookChick]

My get it on song! XD.!.!

[gingersnap914]

Love this song! "You're a beautiful.......beautiful fucked up man", how I would have liked to have said that a few times in my life!

[Elsheran]

@gingersnap914 I'd have liked to have heard it a few times in my life. Odd but true. It's the little things.

[gingersnap914]

@Elsheran If you had, would it have changed your life? For good or for bad? 

[Elsheran]

@gingersnap914 Depends on the occasion. Might have saved one relationship. hurt another. But in a way, I would get a good boost of confidence out of it. I'd probably come out ahead.

[Treadlightlyful]

Candian ...down to earth, humble sweet , strong & beautiful . Her music was perfect for the time it came along , Grateful Dead were at the height of the wave , Internet was booming lots of hope & promise ....then along came the "Bush" & republicans . You all know the rest of the story ...

[NunoFreak]

I can honestly say that this has been one of my favorite songs since I was a teenager and that Sarah looks better than any other woman in the world in this video, STUNNING!

[POTOlover13]

Love it!! It sounds like something I would do.

[TheCagefree]

@POTOlover13 i like u



[Nikybabe74]

Beautiful woman... really sexy and elegant.

[elabecedario1985]

I seen it many years ago and really IMPRESSIVE it is

[briantfenton]

3 dislikes??????? apparently they never heard her music???? i had the pleasure of seing her and Butterfly Boucher in Dallas about ten years ago......one of my fave night's EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! peace.......B

[jaghoff]

She's not married any more. I'm back in LOVE with her. I think I still have a chance. Gotta move to Canada and become a Liberal. It'll be worth it. Gonna inform the wife in the morning.Done

[mayasattva]

@jaghoff LOL, this straight check gets you. If my hubby leaves me for Sarah, I would have to applaud his taste!
