    This song sounds like a person reaching out to someone they love and consoling them that the mistakes they made don't define them and they can still claim the "innocence" of childhood. They're not damaged goods.

      At the Sarah McLachlan concert I went to in June Sarah said that she fell in love with her friends ex-boyfriend, not husband.Her friend obviously felt betrayed and hurt and didn't talk to Sarah for a few years. Sarah went on to state she and the friend made up and have helped each other raise their kids together. Both Sarah and the friend have since divorced their respective ex spouses. They remain friends.

    Adia was my little sister's and my favorite song to sing together in my old 77' Camaro. She was murdered by her boyfriend in 1999. She was 20 and a single mother. This song still speaks down to my soul and depicts what I'd say to her. She died a addict.

      This is absolutely why I love listening to this song while writing my own story about friendship and forgiveness. There was a girl who almost killed her friend's sister by accident because she was too distracted while driving which ended her relationship with her friend. She was filled with guilt and her friend couldn't forgive her for what happened to her sister, even though her sister still survived. As the time goes by, she somehow had able to forgive herself even though the accident is still a scar to her, because that accident ended her friendship with her friend. In the end, when her friend's mother got cancer, she wanted to atone for the sin that she had done back then. She wanted to donate her organ to her former friend's mom. Her friend's mom lived, but the girl died.

    I'm a man, and man, I can weep listening to this song...takes me into the past, bittersweet memories, can't help but to think of those times. That final dominant (7) chord at 3:57 is just so beautiful (for the music enthusiasts, you'll know what I mean). It gives a sense of uncertainty whether Adia has forgiven Sarah for marrying Adia's boyfriend or not. Good songs make you always come back, sometimes years later, but it shows, that they're on your mind.

    • @deanroddey2881
      @deanroddey2881 Год назад

      ​@@slacktoryrecords4193 I meant more in retrospect. There were so many great artists that were really big but there's only so much room in the way back machine, and they can tend to fall down the memory hole and just aren't referenced as much relative to other bands that were may no more widely appreciated at the time.
      I think of folks like Collective Soul, Natalie Imbruglia, Natalie Merchant, Blues Traveler, Blind Melon, etc... Sometimes, if younger folks are aware of them at all, it might be more from a meme than from knowing their actual work.
      There are lots of videos of younger folks reacting to songs from past decades, and some huge artists from that time often seem highly under-represented. Even folks like Smashing Pumpkins or Alanis Morrisette seem to be highly under-known these days relative to their size at the time.

    I can’t believe she was around 30 yrs old when this came out. I remember I heard this as a preteen and she seemed sooo mature and wise. How the times have changed….

    Pull you from your tower
    Take away your pain
    And show you all the beauty you possess
    If you'd only let yourself believe
    That we are born innocent
    Believe me, Adia, we are still innocent
    It's easy, we all falter
    Does it matter?
    'Cause we are born innocent
    Believe me, Adia, we are still innocent

    She has the most feminine beautiful voice I ever heard. I remember buying this album after my wife left me back in 2000 and her energy kept me from going nuts during that time.

      We need to get these things out of our lives. They certainly haven't made life better.

    I love that this song is about friendship. I believe it's a truer love than romance

    What a beautiful voice. Listening to Sarah and Shaun Colvin reminds me of my childhood because that is what i recall. The good days. When i still had hope.
