I just severed a 15 year relationship with my Fiance. We called ourselves spiritually married. Through the up and down and the tough times and fun delightful times we confessed our eternal bond to each other. Over the past year he started being emotionally and verbally abusive to me daily. He started tearing me down and unmercifully critical of my every move down to I was breathing to heavy. I loved that man to the core of my heart. He was my life, my love. Well to make a long story short. He began to be manipulative, deceitful, hateful, vicious, demeaning, demoralizing, gaslighting, rejected all love and kindness. The breaking point was when I told him I love you and he hung up the phone my face. As I'm trying to hang on every second, moment, minute, hours, day by day dealing with this unbearable and undescribable pain that I'm still shell shocked of his cruel, vile, heinous, atrocious and treacherous treatment it takes my breath away sometimes. For years my family and friends were telling me that he was no good🎉 for me. But, I was blinded and captivated by love. What I know undeniably is I was swept up by the charm and charisma of a man who is Malignant Narcissistic. He made it so I couldn't survive the unending torment of him treating me with such disdain and reprehensible contempt, I never felt so much energy of hatred towards me. Well, before it came to this savagery, my children despised, loathed and couldn't stand his very presence l My son wasn't holding back. He said Mommy, I told you, Nana told you, Grampa told you and included his siblings that they all told me so. I just love how frank and candid my kids are. They always keep it 💯💯.🔥 Nevertheless, they are by my side, loving me supporting me and praying for their Mommy that my heart and spirit will heal, restored and find my strength to recover to remember the joy of life. Thanks for listening. So, this song express the words my soul is trying to convey.
alexandra shipula what do you mean by plain substance abuse? Having a problem with drugs or alcohol does not mean your a bad person at all. But, reaching out to someone that can help is very important.
I disagree that she’s underrated! She’s world renowned and well loved for her incredible songwriting abilities! Her sound and style and genuine emotion is all her own. She’s a unique talent.
No one comes close to this women's expression of empathy and introspection in the human experience.... Her lyrics are beyond deep...They catalyze a magic that ignites the fire in our souls... She was put on this earth to bring beauty to an otherwise ugly world with her music...Thank You Sarah, for making the tough times in my life a little better...
Heaven bend to take my hand And lead me through the fire Be the long awaited answer To a long and painful fight Truth be told I've tried my best But somewhere 'long the way I got caught up in all there was to offer And the cost was so much more than I could bear Though I've tried I've fallen I have sunk so low I messed up Better I should know So don't come 'round here and Tell me I told you so We all begin with good intent When love was raw and young We believe that we can change ourselves The past can be undone But we carry on our back the burden time always reveals In the lonely light of morning In the wound that would not heal It's the bitter taste of losing everything That I've held so dear I've fallen I have sunk so low I messed up Better I should know So don't come 'round here and Tell me I told you so Heaven bend to take my hand I've nowhere left to turn I'm lost to those I thought were friends To everyone I know Oh they turn their heads embarrassed Pretend that they don't see That it's one missed step one slip before you know it And there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed Though I've tried I've fallen I have sunk so low I messed up Better I should know So don't come 'round here and Tell me I told you so I messed up Better I should know So don't come round here and Tell me I told you so
I bought this album in 2003 and listened to it everyday for 15 months while I was in Baghdad and different parts of Iraq. It was one of the only things that helped me get through it. Sarah's music will always have a special place in my heart.
This is probably the greatest song of regret ever made. How many of us have done something so foolish in the spare of the moment. Afterwards, to regret the mistake we made and now only have the consequences to look forward to. Tears never to stop, a never unending heartache, and a loss feeling that will never end. I've been there.
@@winnyhan9701 The lyrics to this song can be applied to almost any situation. I lost my son who was only 21 years old in a car accident. We were never close. I had wished we were. He was a wonderful son, and I miss him terribly. To this day, I still can't get over it. I should have opened up to him, to tell him how much I loved him. But, It's too late now.
May sadness fade, As the music plays. May soothing greet your soul, And peace finally be known. May you find love you deserve, And whisper love so it's heard. Love all and hate none, There hates on there soul. Your light shune, So everyone will know ❤

I have listened to this woman's music since the fall of 96'... Her words somehow found their way into my spirit and I havent been the same since....Her poetical lyrics truly define the meaning of the human experience....I have sat with her music during the most complex times of my life and I can actually say that they provided a solice of sorts, a sanctuary to bury my thoughts and recollections...I truly love this woman's music.....
+Solomon Moriarty Very well said and you nicely described the affects music can have on us if we open ourselves to the amazing qualities it offers. It sounds as though you were observant enough to see what this amazing gift we have been given, music, is capable of. And even smarter for taking advantage of incredible benefits. I think it is one of the best things mankind ever created. They managed to nail it and there are few things in this world that can have such an affect on us. It can make us get up and dance, we can reflect in it, It can move us emotionally and we can be moved to tears by the simple beauty of it. Take the best of care.
Solomon Moriarty Your words are beautifully and thoughtfully written. Fortunate are those of us who take the time to read them. For it's words like yours that help remind me that there are people who do no fear putting their feelings out there. It takes strength to do so and I for one truly appreciate you for just that. Don't ever stop.
73 years old here, messed up almost 59 years ago by not waiting for love of my life as he went to Vietnam. I married another while he was at war and it's been 1 mistake after another for me since. He came back from Nam, got married got in car crash and died at 29 . I am now old no children no love of my life. I understand messing up. You only get one chance at life, you please yourself, you loose. take advice from a lonely old lady, there's something to be said about young love. Please follow the goodness in your heart.
There is a message on one the international Adoption videos: "any time that I feel down and depressed, I would go watch these adoption videos and they pick me up" YOU should have at least adopted! There may never have been the right partner
@@chasx7062 thank you for your thoughts! The thought did cross my mind to adopt, but I became a long haul truck driver to "escape" I suppose, and that's no life to raise children
God is alway ready to start a new life with you. Pray for what's next. Life is not a closed door and it's over. While you stare at that closed door, there is an open door you can't see. Turn around. It's there.
I heard this song as a teenager over a decade ago and have been looking for it ever since. Thanks to humming the refrain to Google search, I've recovered you. The tears I cried in the bathtub just now. Thank you. 🙏🏿
''In the lonely light of morning, In the wound that would not heal, It's the bitter taste of losing everything, That I've held so dear....''' Simply beautiful!!!
✨The same here really needing it lately, as I mourn the loss of my beloved adopted mom, trying to hang on, barely breathing, want to check out so bad. This grief and devastation hurts. 😥😰😥
I went through great heartache in college that I wouldn’t wish for anyone. I would listen to her on the long and dark nights driving home. My goodness this is so easy and so tough to listen to at the same time. I grieve the mistakes that I made in my youth . Her music proves the despair that will always be in my heart…the bit that time cannot touch.
+Tescily Maguire This is a great line. I've discovered after the loss of my husband, I had a wound that just won't heal. I don't understand how people can lose someone they have loved for years and somehow move on in life without them. I suppose it depends on the depth of relationship. Whoever said, "Time heals all", never knew my husband.
Wow, I’m floored right now. I heard someone talk about this song in a podcast and I’m not ashamed to say as a man, I’m in tears. I’ve listened to this on repeat for the past 24 hours and gives me chills every time. Such an amazing voice and an amazing song
Beautiful song and lyrics that mean something to a world of hurting people. Thanks, Sarah - I fear you are the end of a generation of true musicians and artists.
I never read so many deep (and sad) comments on one video, they just gave me different perspectives on life. Wish everyone who feels alone much strength and love. Big hugs. 29 years old student from Germany
This song played in the supermarket today, followed by "Tell Me All Your Thoughts on God Cause I'd Really Like to Meet Her" and "I'm Not Crazy I'm Just A little Unwell" I sang all three while shopping.
I guess I finally have the courage to confess that I am a 30 year old strait male who feels so alone during the day that I cry myself to sleep at night listening to Sarah McLachlan. I'm not proud of it cuz I have no pride just shame. But I'm man enough to admit it.
Jon Powell email me kavitasamlalsingh@gmail.com let us chat I am not talking lewd here, just as one human to another, I love Sarah, its kinda bittersweet rocks the soul.
kavita samlalsingh Yes it is. and yes she does. I was watching Japanese anime when you asked me to chat. I'm sorry I would like to some other time if that's alright? Thanks for your e-mail- I'll be sure to keep it.
kavita samlalsingh I sent some web-cam messages. Just introducing myself. I'm sorry if it was too much but I never did this before so i'm as nervous and confused as a child with these things.Just as much as talking to girls. It's not important for me to tell you this. I'm just explaining why I'm like that. It's the fact that I haven't had a girlfriend in 13 years that's why I get so nervous talking to them-if I don't have to work with them that is.
I listened to and loved this song in middle school so much. About 20 years later, I hear this song and I'm brought to tears now that I have the lived experience to feel this song this deeply. Who knew.
i agree. I had this album and my late beloved who passed in 2012 and I loved this album. It's painful and comforting to hear. Sarah's songwriting is sublime.
"We believe that we can change ourselves The past can be undone But we carry on our back the burdens time always reveals In the lonely light of morning In the wound that would not heal" So very true... She expresses emotion in a way that is at once haunting, raw and profoundly lyrical. Her songs resonate deeply within because she has *been there.* Her beautiful lyrics and voice touch us all... we identify... her pain is our pain. This is one reason I love music; it has a universal language... you don't even need to understand the words in order to comprehend its essence.
I'm pretty chauvinistic in my musical taste, but Sarah just breaks right through. An under-rated singer songwriter if there ever was one. Beautiful in every way.
There are always a 1,000 beautiful voices, and even several great musicians, but once in awhile there is a lyricist--and when these are all in one package, it's timeless!!!
This is and always will be my epitaph! Being terminal now it's amazing how I feel you Ms Sarah! Thank you for your beauty and awesome voice! This world is a better with you in it. May God bless you Forever
Why don't you Canadians take that freaking little pud Justin Beaver back and give us Sarah McLachlan ... We'd be eternally grateful !!! He is repulsive.... She is Beautiful, talented, refined, soulful, respectful, just a wonderful person ... She is Pretty much everything the Beiber isn't...
This song has "brilliantly" articulated the pain and struggle that I am in right now in my life. Some of the lyric literally cause tears to roll down my face because Infeel what she is saying! When she says: It doesn't seem a way to be redeemed it just explodes inside of me. In it all I know my tears will be turned to shouts of victory because of the Love of God for all of us. Thank you Sarah for using your gift to tell us that if we have fallen we are human and we can recover.
I lost my wife, my Lady, last year, one year, and life is not the same. I have a hole no one can fill, I have no one to touch and touch me with words, smiles, fingers and heart. My credo was 'it's not how many women you love, but how well you love one woman. Now my armor is rusted, standing in the reign of laments and curses. I lived alone before her, i live alone now, two eras wrapped around the summer of my mind... I wander the grass and look for her 4 leaf clovers to decorate her tomb that sits on my shelf... all is vanity, vanity... no one mourns her but me, and when I go, no one will miss me, for she and I were both alone, but not when we were twogether.
+Cadillac Jeff If only one person mourns your loss, that's enough. I'm sorry for your tremendous loss. What's the old saying..Tis better to have loved & lost, than never to have loved at all.
+Cadillac Jeff I don't understand how you feel because your grief is subjective, just as mine is. I do understand being alone, and I understand the seasons of the mind . . . sigh. Life is a brutal affair, my friend.
There’s something about the verse that begins “We all begin with good intent...” that gets me every single time. That inability to move on from trauma.
One of my very favorite artist , male or female. She’s incredible. I’ve never seen her in concert… I’ve got to get that done. Keep doing what you’re doing Sarah, you are one of the very best in the music industry !
I love Sarah she has gotten me through some of the toughest times in my life with her music. Like the time I lost my son from Cystic Fibrosis. That time I didn't think I wanted to even live but I had a daughter to raise.
I'd be honored if some Sarah McLachlan/90s fans would check out my acoustic piano & vocal cover of ANGEL on my channel. Real live acoustic with no autotune. Thanks and peace out.
Truly scary how good of singers some people are. Been listening to her since I was a kid and I dont have any sort of emotional attachment to her songs in anyway, just simply her voice and her songs still bring me to tears at 36. The voice of an angel if they exsisted on earth
Alot of people are losing the 'touch' like what Sarah has in her music.... the meanings, lyrics, passion that most people of the today lack. Recently listened to World on Fire and made me remember why I loved her songs
I get it. When my son was a baby, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, The Power of Love always had me crying. He cried when the Button Moon song came on. Sara McLachlan, Fallen, is another one, that has me in tears.
I am so drawn to the direction of deep emotion,sorrow,and pain. I'm an guitarist have been since age5.l'm age58 and almost all my music has been designed to bring a tear. I'm thankful I'm not the only one. Thank God for artists like Sarah!
Pandemic 2020 and I discovered this song on an episode of Cold Case. I had to find out who it was. 56 yrs. old, so many regrets and mistakes. This song is how my heart feels. My heart goes out to all the people who know how this song feels. Thanks Sarah, you sing like like an angel.
I remember her singing this back in the day. It's still brings out the same emotions. Beautiful performance. I'm 53 and I've made a bucket full of mistakes but I try not to regret them because I think they've made me who I am. I just don't want to repeat the mistakes. I try and learn from them but it's the narcissistic people of this world that can drag you down. Look at the good things you've done both big and small. I think you'll find you've made a difference 💜😁🙋 At my age I'm aiming to on hold on to my inner peace that's prescious to me.
This kind of music in an era that seemed like a struggle by trying to show grace in just how wonderful of a time it was. Good days is true but it has to be old times as well.
I am envious of Sarah's gift to convey perfectly the emotion of so many different moments of life into lyrical and song form. Her poetry is simple and powerful, it captures my heart and keeps it enthralled to her sweet voice and sweeter soul.
worst thing about life is TIME,,, cherish every moment people as time waits for no one, ill always rememeber the 90s the good days, everything about Sarah's voice speaks the 90s to me, i put this on and its like im locked away from everything and everyone , im in my own place of peace and happiness
Beautiful woman and a Beautiful voice. She does have a voice of an angel especially when she sings in the arms of an angel. 1 of my all time favourite songs specially for a funeral
This song just helped me save a life. I've worked as a Suicide Prevention Counselor for over nine years, and music has been one of my number one hooks to pull people back. Eternal gratitude for the song.
Thank you for picking us up I've battled many things from birth to my adult life and sometimes able help others overcome cause of people like you thank you God bless
13 years ago I was abused and this music was used to try and manipulate me. Today I return back to my past with chills but I'm a stronger person. And I can enjoy this artists talent without the strings that pained me. I'm free in Jesus. Thank you Lord for rescuing me from my past.
You're not alone. It's the burned CD my ex-wife gave that has Sarah from track 1 to the end and I still listen to it and it still evokes a deep sadness for what could have , what should have been.
Wow. I've known this song for a while, through my addiction and the 9 years since I quit. Three years ago,my family had to run from the fires in Oregon. My kids dad changed at that point, he felt nothing afterward. I ended up leaving him and my kids two years later because I was in a very dark spot and it was affecting my kids. I was gone for a year, in a shelter 85 miles from everything I loved. Came back home in June, and rebuildi g a friendship with my kids dad. But that second verse hits hard these days. "The wound that would not heal. It's the bitter taste of losing everything I held so dear." 😢
Abused this album to oblivion in High School. I get this unwavering nostalgic whenever I hear one of the tracks and immediately envision myself crawling to my room after school and reaching for the play button on my stereo, as if it was my dying act. I was always exhausted in high school from watching X Files episodes until 3 in the morning, school nights be damned. My teenage years were spent mesmerized over Gillian Anderson and Sarah Mclachlan, and it was a hell of a ride.
Im not sure that there has EVER been another song written that better conveys the despair of regret than this. Sarah is an absolute poet
absolutely ❤
The arms of an angel
I just severed a 15 year relationship with my Fiance. We called ourselves spiritually married.
Through the up and down and the tough times and fun delightful times we confessed our eternal bond to each other.
Over the past year he started being emotionally and verbally abusive to me daily.
He started tearing me down and unmercifully critical of my every move down to I was breathing to heavy.
I loved that man to the core of my heart. He was my life, my love.
Well to make a long story short.
He began to be manipulative, deceitful, hateful, vicious, demeaning, demoralizing, gaslighting, rejected all love and kindness.

As I'm trying to hang on every second, moment, minute, hours, day by day dealing with this unbearable and undescribable pain that I'm still shell shocked of his cruel, vile, heinous, atrocious and treacherous treatment it takes my breath away sometimes.
For years my family and friends were telling me that he was no good🎉 for me.
But, I was blinded and captivated by love.
What I know undeniably is I was swept up by the charm and charisma of a man who is Malignant Narcissistic.
He made it so I couldn't survive the unending torment of him treating me with such disdain and reprehensible contempt, I never felt so much energy of hatred towards me.
Well, before it came to this savagery, my children despised, loathed and couldn't stand his very presence l
My son wasn't holding back. He said Mommy, I told you, Nana told you, Grampa told you and included his siblings that they all told me so.
I just love how frank and candid my kids are.
They always keep it 💯💯.🔥
Nevertheless, they are by my side, loving me supporting me and praying for their Mommy that my heart and spirit will heal, restored and find my strength to recover to remember the joy of life.
Thanks for listening.
So, this song express the words my soul is trying to convey.
Amen
Her song "Stupid" is a gut punch as well... the video is 👌🏻
She pulls years of alcoholism, and saddness out of me with that voice and those words. 15 years sober. Bless you Dear Lady.
is it okay to have plain Substance Abuse issues or does that mean you're a POS?
alexandra shipula what do you mean by plain substance abuse? Having a problem with drugs or alcohol does not mean your a bad person at all. But, reaching out to someone that can help is very important.
She sing for money
Yes you are strong.
On June 4 2004 I turned my will and life over to the care of God as I understood him.
Still listening, twenty years later ❤
I am metal guy but damn, her lyrics are so spot on for me. I could listen to this song on an endless loop. She is a true artist.
I'm a death metal guy but this woman's voice is amazing! Only thing I can listen to like this she is a gorgeous woman
Top 3 live shows would definitely have on it,for me, imo, Tool, & Sarah Mclachlan. Constant chillz for both those shows!!

Try listening to amy lee. I have said that in the past and your metal fandom + still liking this kinda proves my point.

The lyrics, delivery and instrumentation are really stupendous. Incredible.
Extremely under rated song writer. She reaches the depths of the human experience and cracks us open to our own souls

I Agree
I don't think anyone can capture that more beautifully. Well said.
Absolutely
So TRUE🙏
Heaven bend to take my hand
And lead me through the fire
Be the long awaited answer
To a long and painful fight
Truth be told I've tried my best
But somewhere 'long the way
I got caught up in all there was to offer
And the cost was so much more than I could bear
Though I've tried I've fallen
I have sunk so low
I messed up
Better I should know
So don't come 'round here and
Tell me I told you so
We all begin with good intent
When love was raw and young
We believe that we can change ourselves
The past can be undone
But we carry on our back the burden time always reveals
In the lonely light of morning
In the wound that would not heal
It's the bitter taste of losing everything
That I've held so dear
I've fallen
I have sunk so low
I messed up
Better I should know
So don't come 'round here and
Tell me I told you so
Heaven bend to take my hand
I've nowhere left to turn
I'm lost to those I thought were friends
To everyone I know
Oh they turn their heads embarrassed
Pretend that they don't see
That it's one missed step one slip before you know it
And there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed
Though I've tried I've fallen
I have sunk so low
I messed up
Better I should know
So don't come 'round here and
Tell me I told you so
I messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here and
Tell me I told you so

✨The same here really needing it lately, as I mourn the loss of my beloved adopted mom, trying to hang on, barely breathing, want to check out so bad. This grief and devastation hurts. 😥😰😥
So true!
wow nice made night sleep good tonight thanks 💯❤️🇺🇲🎶🥰

These songs bring back memories of a time in my life I lost my dad, my daughter and myself. 😢
My condolences. I hope everything gets better for you ❤
I like every song from Sarah McLachian.
Haunting lyrics, Angel-like vocals, absolute masterpiece.
11 years later, If you're still watching this you're a legend
Very underrated song. LOVE YOU SARAH!!! Favorite female musician of all time. Real music not some top 40 meaninglessness crap.
I went through great heartache in college that I wouldn’t wish for anyone. I would listen to her on the long and dark nights driving home. My goodness this is so easy and so tough to listen to at the same time. I grieve the mistakes that I made in my youth . Her music proves the despair that will always be in my heart…the bit that time cannot touch.
"In the lonely light of morning in the wound that would not heal, it's the bitter taste of losing everything that I've held so dear-I'm fallen"
+Tescily Maguire This is a great line. I've discovered after the loss of my husband, I had a wound that just won't heal. I don't understand how people can lose someone they have loved for years and somehow move on in life without them. I suppose it depends on the depth of relationship. Whoever said, "Time heals all", never knew my husband.
+MissDistarr60 Hello again, we keep bumping into each other..Hope you are doing alright.
She sung this as soon as I started reading that!
MissDistarr60 You never actually move on without them. They will always make up a piece of you. You bring them along for the ride.
Wow, I’m floored right now. I heard someone talk about this song in a podcast and I’m not ashamed to say as a man, I’m in tears. I’ve listened to this on repeat for the past 24 hours and gives me chills every time. Such an amazing voice and an amazing song
Beautiful song and lyrics that mean something to a world of hurting people. Thanks, Sarah - I fear you are the end of a generation of true musicians and artists.
+enzothebaker22 Pain brings out the best music.
I love how Sarah is completely dedicated in what she believes.
I never read so many deep (and sad) comments on one video, they just gave me different perspectives on life. Wish everyone who feels alone much strength and love. Big hugs. 29 years old student from Germany
This song played in the supermarket today, followed by "Tell Me All Your Thoughts on God Cause I'd Really Like to Meet Her" and "I'm Not Crazy I'm Just A little Unwell" I sang all three while shopping.
That song tell me all your thoughts on God is called counting Blue cars by a band called dishwalla
Sarah is such a beautiful woman, and her voice is heavenly. 🥰
Her message and her voice are great. I've been listening to her since she first started. It's sad she wasn't really noticed. She deserves a star.
i love rock and metal, but this woman's voice kicks you right in the feels. if you don't feel something from this you haven't a soul anywhere in you.
Ikr!
I guess I finally have the courage to confess that I am a 30 year old strait male who feels so alone during the day that I cry myself to sleep at night listening to Sarah McLachlan. I'm not proud of it cuz I have no pride just shame. But I'm man enough to admit it.
Jon Powell email me kavitasamlalsingh@gmail.com let us chat I am not talking lewd here, just as one human to another, I love Sarah, its kinda bittersweet rocks the soul.
kavita samlalsingh Yes it is. and yes she does. I was watching Japanese anime when you asked me to chat. I'm sorry I would like to some other time if that's alright? Thanks for your e-mail- I'll be sure to keep it.
kavita samlalsingh I sent some web-cam messages. Just introducing myself. I'm sorry if it was too much but I never did this before so i'm as nervous and confused as a child with these things.Just as much as talking to girls. It's not important for me to tell you this. I'm just explaining why I'm like that. It's the fact that I haven't had a girlfriend in 13 years that's why I get so nervous talking to them-if I don't have to work with them that is.
I think i sent you a message/email....you can add me on fb...if you are on there it is a bit more private...
kavita samlalsingh I don't like fb it makes me uneasy sorry
I listened to and loved this song in middle school so much. About 20 years later, I hear this song and I'm brought to tears now that I have the lived experience to feel this song this deeply. Who knew.
Her voice is phenomenal, haunting, gives me chills
Good Lord, this song is haunting. Ten years later it still has an effect on me.
i agree. I had this album and my late beloved who passed in 2012 and I loved this album. It's painful and comforting to hear. Sarah's songwriting is sublime.
it's better than A E A E I O U and sometimes Y
Same. This is exactly my life right now.
Sarah McLachlan's music can heal you and at the same time,make you weep so hard. She speaks for all of us when we cannot find the words.
Sometimes when the pain is hard enough to bare yourself, the last thing you need is someone coming around to say, "I told you so".
@Dojocho you are so eloquent in your response! Is exactly how I feel same as you but I could not express it better then you!
"We believe that we can change ourselves
The past can be undone
But we carry on our back the burdens time always reveals
In the lonely light of morning
In the wound that would not heal"
So very true... She expresses emotion in a way that is at once haunting, raw and profoundly lyrical. Her songs resonate deeply within because she has *been there.* Her beautiful lyrics and voice touch us all... we identify... her pain is our pain. This is one reason I love music; it has a universal language... you don't even need to understand the words in order to comprehend its essence.
Sonja Reid beautifully described
Facts
Talk about an insightful line. We never think of that when we are young and getting involved
Absolutely. There is no such thing as emotional "healing". That is just a cynically curated lie to intentionally misrepresent oneself on social media.
I've never heard this before, live it!!! Beautiful Sarah xo
This song is absolutely beautiful. I'm so glad that I re-discovered it.
This is one of the best songs, I've ever heard!
I'm pretty chauvinistic in my musical taste, but Sarah just breaks right through. An under-rated singer songwriter if there ever was one. Beautiful in every way.
This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
There are always a 1,000 beautiful voices, and even several great musicians, but once in awhile there is a lyricist--and when these are all in one package, it's timeless!!!
This is and always will be my epitaph! Being terminal now it's amazing how I feel you Ms Sarah! Thank you for your beauty and awesome voice! This world is a better with you in it. May God bless you Forever
if angels had a voice, it would sound like hers
will we burn in heaven like we do down here?
I agree
Yes°!!! Cant ve CHANCE God created her.
Walking real life angel 💗
And the words man they hit home
anyone thumbs down does not understand music she is a fine artist
I agree...good song,better singer
She's not crazy popular cause she's Canadian. A lot of our musicians get crazy big here but nowhere else.
Why don't you Canadians take that freaking little pud Justin Beaver back and give us Sarah McLachlan ... We'd be eternally grateful !!! He is repulsive.... She is Beautiful, talented, refined, soulful, respectful, just a wonderful person ... She is Pretty much everything the Beiber isn't...
Maybe we don't want him back?
Thanks to this song, I knew Sarah's music... So I started to know all of her music, fallen in love with her voice of angel.
Incredible. The segue of the second hook into the chorus gives me chills every time ...
Me too... This song is sheer brilliance.
This song has "brilliantly" articulated the pain and struggle that I am in right now in my life. Some of the lyric literally cause tears to roll down my face because Infeel what she is saying! When she says: It doesn't seem a way to be redeemed it just explodes inside of me. In it all I know my tears will be turned to shouts of victory because of the Love of God for all of us. Thank you Sarah for using your gift to tell us that if we have fallen we are human and we can recover.
Thanks so much for your love and support
The world in 2021 needs some new Sarah music 🙏🏻🙏🏻
To me... her finest song! Hauntingly beautiful....
also building a mystery
Possession is still my fave
Do What You Have To Do
I lost my wife, my Lady, last year, one year, and life is not the same. I have a hole no one can fill, I have no one to touch and touch me with words, smiles, fingers and heart. My credo was 'it's not how many women you love, but how well you love one woman.
Now my armor is rusted, standing in the reign of laments and curses. I lived alone before her, i live alone now, two eras wrapped around the summer of my mind... I wander the grass and look for her 4 leaf clovers to decorate her tomb that
sits on my shelf... all is vanity, vanity... no one mourns her but me, and when I go, no one will miss me, for she and I were
both alone, but not when we were twogether.
+Cadillac Jeff If only one person mourns your loss, that's enough. I'm sorry for your tremendous loss. What's the old saying..Tis better to have loved & lost, than never to have loved at all.
I know the feeling.
+Cadillac Jeff I don't understand how you feel because your grief is subjective, just as mine is. I do understand being alone, and I understand the seasons of the mind . . . sigh. Life is a brutal affair, my friend.
I feel your loss....I lost my son unexpectedly & his passing took a toll on me.....the pain doesn't go away....miss him a great deal...
Reading your words just broke my heart into pieces. I'm so sorry for your loss!! God bless you healing upon you 🌹
2019 and still listening! Can't wait to see her in concert in Forest Hills Stadium!
(◍•ᴗ•◍)❤
There’s something about the verse that begins “We all begin with good intent...” that gets me every single time. That inability to move on from trauma.
Why doesn't this have 700 million views? If there's any video that deserves 1 billion views, it's this one.
+Ave Maria It takes too long for some to realize what beautiful music sounds like.
+subzero_ vapes.
Sarah I know well. But who is Britney and Mili??? (lol)
Probably because it was a popular song before the whole youtube craze when we used to buy CDs
Because, roughly, only 7.6 million people have watched it.
One of my very favorite artist , male or female. She’s incredible.
I’ve never seen her in concert… I’ve got to get that done. Keep doing what you’re doing Sarah, you are one of the very best in the music industry !
I love Sarah she has gotten me through some of the toughest times in my life with her music. Like the time I lost my son from Cystic Fibrosis. That time I didn't think I wanted to even live but I had a daughter to raise.
I still absolutely love this song
May 2023 be a year of reparation, redemption, and release for those in need
My mom raised me on Sarah McLachlan (specifically this song) and this song reminds me of her so much :'-)
Your moms awesome btw
Mine too!
Your mom knows great music. Definitely.
This song is devastating; it brought tears to my songs. I am so grateful for Sarah's time on this earth.
Me too
Me Too
We all begin with good intent when love is raw &&& young! ❤
Smiles, hello Teresa 🌺
This is so good I can't take it
This song just rips my heart out...
Me too~
AbbyNormal777 me three!
true !!
I'd be honored if some Sarah McLachlan/90s fans would check out my acoustic piano & vocal cover of ANGEL on my channel. Real live acoustic with no autotune. Thanks and peace out.
Sarah sang my heart so many times over the past 25 years. I found her music at 16.
Truly scary how good of singers some people are. Been listening to her since I was a kid and I dont have any sort of emotional attachment to her songs in anyway, just simply her voice and her songs still bring me to tears at 36. The voice of an angel if they exsisted on earth
Alot of people are losing the 'touch' like what Sarah has in her music.... the meanings, lyrics, passion that most people of the today lack. Recently listened to World on Fire and made me remember why I loved her songs
Hello dear,how are you doing,how is the weather treating you over there?
She has the most beautiful voice!***
I get it. When my son was a baby, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, The Power of Love always had me crying. He cried when the Button Moon song came on. Sara McLachlan, Fallen, is another one, that has me in tears.
What a beautiful song. The chorus is hypnotic and the melody is so captivating. ❤
Music like this make me think more.And I'm already a deep thinker
+faizal020 me too
+liam connor life of an INFJ Introvert hey
+faizal020 Her album 'Fumbling Towards Ecstasy' is even deeper.
I love deep thinkers; they are so rare in today's world.
cringe comment and replies…
I am so drawn to the direction of deep emotion,sorrow,and pain. I'm an guitarist have been since age5.l'm age58 and almost all my music has been designed to bring a tear. I'm thankful I'm not the only one. Thank God for artists like Sarah!
Pandemic 2020 and I discovered this song on an episode of Cold Case. I had to find out who it was. 56 yrs. old, so many regrets and mistakes. This song is how my heart feels. My heart goes out to all the people who know how this song feels. Thanks Sarah, you sing like like an angel.
I remember her singing this back in the day. It's still brings out the same emotions. Beautiful performance. I'm 53 and I've made a bucket full of mistakes but I try not to regret them because I think they've made me who I am. I just don't want to repeat the mistakes. I try and learn from them but it's the narcissistic people of this world that can drag you down. Look at the good things you've done both big and small. I think you'll find you've made a difference 💜😁🙋 At my age I'm aiming to on hold on to my inner peace that's prescious to me.
Hello dear,how are you doing,how is the weather treating you over there?
Justo hoy 10 Julio 2023 la escuché en episodio de Cold Case...
Ironic. I'm 56 and happened on your post. Mortality hits us...and regrets. Hits home, that sorrow of things lost.
'We all begin with good intent' always hits me so hard when I listen to this song 💚💫💖🎵🎤
This kind of music in an era that seemed like a struggle by trying to show grace in just how wonderful of a time it was. Good days is true but it has to be old times as well.
when i was in high school i never understood why her songs were dark and moving. now that im 30 something. i resonate.... :(
Me too! (In my 50's now)
It registers. Yep.
I liked her because I was able to understand why they were so dark and moving. I was 15 when I realized this in 1998.
from her soul a rare gift! Calms me
I am envious of Sarah's gift to convey perfectly the emotion of so many different moments of life into lyrical and song form. Her poetry is simple and powerful, it captures my heart and keeps it enthralled to her sweet voice and sweeter soul.
Beautiful
Such a great song. It brings me a weird melancholic feeling.
worst thing about life is TIME,,, cherish every moment people as time waits for no one, ill always rememeber the 90s the good days, everything about Sarah's voice speaks the 90s to me, i put this on and its like im locked away from everything and everyone , im in my own place of peace and happiness
Hear us, my lord: thou art a mighty prince among us: in the choice of our sepulchres bury thy dead; none of us shall withhold from thee his tomb
I've searched for this beautiful song for so many years now, but today i found it.. thanks Sarah for this awesomeness 🙏 much love 💋
Beautiful woman and a Beautiful voice. She does have a voice of an angel especially when she sings in the arms of an angel. 1 of my all time favourite songs specially for a funeral
This song just helped me save a life. I've worked as a Suicide Prevention Counselor for over nine years, and music has been one of my number one hooks to pull people back.
Eternal gratitude for the song.
Sarah can't write a bad song. They're all so wonderful x
She could sing her laundry list, and it would sound amazing..❤
Thank you for picking us up I've battled many things from birth to my adult life and sometimes able help others overcome cause of people like you thank you God bless
13 years ago I was abused and this music was used to try and manipulate me. Today I return back to my past with chills but I'm a stronger person. And I can enjoy this artists talent without the strings that pained me. I'm free in Jesus. Thank you Lord for rescuing me from my past.
Sorry to hear. 🌸😚
Sarah has been the light if my life since Fumbling Towards Ecstasy...and still the only true one I can rely on to carry me thru the tough times!
Thanks so much for your love and support
Music lovers were Fallen with this song/video twenty years ago. Sarah McLachlan unleashed this melodious song that was so captivating!
You're not alone. It's the burned CD my ex-wife gave that has Sarah from track 1 to the end and I still listen to it and it still evokes a deep sadness for what could have , what should have been.
Wow. I've known this song for a while, through my addiction and the 9 years since I quit. Three years ago,my family had to run from the fires in Oregon. My kids dad changed at that point, he felt nothing afterward. I ended up leaving him and my kids two years later because I was in a very dark spot and it was affecting my kids. I was gone for a year, in a shelter 85 miles from everything I loved. Came back home in June, and rebuildi g a friendship with my kids dad. But that second verse hits hard these days. "The wound that would not heal. It's the bitter taste of losing everything I held so dear." 😢
Awww, hi there 🌺😢
Abused this album to oblivion in High School. I get this unwavering nostalgic whenever I hear one of the tracks and immediately envision myself crawling to my room after school and reaching for the play button on my stereo, as if it was my dying act. I was always exhausted in high school from watching X Files episodes until 3 in the morning, school nights be damned. My teenage years were spent mesmerized over Gillian Anderson and Sarah Mclachlan, and it was a hell of a ride.
beautiful....this is my first ever song of Sarah ...beautifully done!! powerful in the 2016
... Sarah's songs have always awakened the mind and penetrated the heart ... she is a gift to our needy world.
