Fun fact ....I was one of her Truck drivers on the 1998 Lilith Fair Tour !!! Was a fantastic Summer touring around America and Canada with my wife in the truck. She treat us like gold the whole tour, such a great voice and wonderful person.
I went to a couple of those Lilith Fairs. Been too long to remember if it was '98 without looking it up though! 😆 My band used to cover Possession. It was one of the only songs I played bass on (I'm primarily a guitarist) because I had to sing that harmony part and the bass was more consistent rhythmically. It always went down well! Sarah is a fantastic songwriter and a beautiful soul.
So many unique artists came out of the 90s and Sarah was one of the best. She looks and sounds awesome here. Fumbling Towards Ecstasy is a masterpiece and really transports you back to that amazing era of music.
The album 'Fumbling Towards Ecstasy' absolutely floored me when it came out-for months and months I listened. This brings me back to a time and place I cherish now.
@@dubaidaddy13me too’ I remember falling asleep to it as a teen. It was so comforting. This album is in my top 5 albums of all time if not in my top 3.
One of very few artists who has proven time and time again that she sounds even better LIVE, than on her albums. Her and her band are nothing short of immaculate up on any stage.
wow, 1994, what a year for music!! Fumbling Toward Ecstasy was an absolute amazing CD I played over and over. It was just the beginning of the rocket ship for her. She is still amazing and looks amazing too.
she aged REALLY well. I forgot I had a massive crush on her voice 27 years ago. When it feels like they are singing to [you] -they’re doing it right. Which doesn’t always translate over audio alone.
She hasn't lost a step...still at the top of her game. Sounds and looks amazing. I love that they prominently show the backup singer...instead of hiding her behind a screen, or even worse, using a pre-recorded track. A++++ all around!
Kelly Clarkson promotes her backup singer. She introduces her and lets her sing some solo moments because Kelly always says how amazing she is. It's nice when you see an artist do that.
That's why you have to go see her in concert! She's on the road right now playing the entire Fumbling Towards Ecstasy album!! It is the touchstone to that period of my life.
As a Canadian we obviously all know each other. I used to work with a guy that went to high school with Sarah. He described her as smart, geeky and really into her music. That said I’ve seen her in concert many times in my live and have never left disappointed.
Wow. I’ve always thought that this is one of the most beautiful and powerful songs ever written. This just took me back to a time that I yearned for a love that would lift me out of darkness.
she has Def aged. she's rocking blonde hair... with dark hair you would see those wrinkles better. and the overall her face is not as full. and the body has def aged, her arms are twice the size they used to be. she looks great.. but let's not drink the kool aid the aging signs are EVERYWHERE
One of the very best! Beautiful songwriter, phenomenal voice! I have listened to her music for many years and many nights.. I can’t get enough of her! Just wish that she would have created more music, because her music touches my soul!
I randomly bought this CD in one of those "10 CD's for 1.00" BMG type things. I couldn't believe how amazing the album was, and then suddenly, she became famous.
This is the best performance I've ever seen on Jimmy Kimmel show. I don't make a habit to watch it, but I'm so glad I saw this. This song got me through so much hardship growing up, and inspired me to use music as a means of healing and self therapy. Every lyric in this song is precious, and so is Sarah. Glad to see her healing hearts again. I wish her all the very best as she tours America again.
Wow. Her voice sounds as good as it did 30 years ago. I saw her in concert about 10 years ago, but this performance blew me away. What a voice. She had an amazing stretch of great music. Transcended me right back to a great period.
The voice of an angel. Got to see her live on this most recent tour for Fumbling 39tb anniversary. It felt like such a spiritual moment to relive that album live. Still gorgeous as ever. Her voice is absolute perfection at this stage of her life. How does she get more gorgeous over time too?! ❤
Sounds as good as when it released 30 years ago. This was the soundtrack to my trip to Ecuador back in 94. I'd travel on the buses, sit by the side of the streams, lay on my bed late at night high in the Andes mountains listening to this song and the others from the album. It surprises me that even after all these years the lyrics pour out of me spontaneously, such was the impact of this music on my life.
I listened to her album 'Fumbling Towards Ecstacy' quite a lot some thirty years ago. Glad that she returned to the stage and next generations can still enjoy her music.
Flumbing Towards Ectasy is one of those albums that are more than epic , ahead of its time , just perfection . Not one song is bad . Amazing she still sound this flawless.
Gorgeous is the key word. Gorgeous soulful rockin guitar. Gorgeous bass knockin drums pure throughout. Gorgeous dark lyrics that are just striking to hear. Last but not least Gorgeous looking Gorgeous sounding talent thru the roof Sarah MacLachlan!! This song makes every single one of my playlists thru the years. Just Thanks

What a great memory! Thank you for sharing!
I saw her on that tour!!
My second concert. I was 17.
Bet that was an awesome experience thanks for sharing! Saw her at the Lilith Fair too in LA, she was amazing!

It's like she teleported back 30 years. She's still gorgeous as ever and her voice is flawless.
She is immune to the butter tart
U took the words out of my head. Timeless.
Right!! - Saw her at Lilith Fair in 98 at VA Beach - Amazing! (The backstory of this song is very strange)
@@shakenama I saw her at Lilith Fair in '98, too!!
@@wjhandy You took the words out of nobody's head. :D
So many unique artists came out of the 90s and Sarah was one of the best. She looks and sounds awesome here. Fumbling Towards Ecstasy is a masterpiece and really transports you back to that amazing era of music.
I’m still wonder is it natural or effects ? Yes she has not lost anything to years amazing ❤
A few lingering close ups, would help. She's beautiful.
Fumbling Towards Ecstasy was the soundtrack of my life for years. Still a beautiful reminder of who I was then.
Well said 💯
Hearing this songs takes me right back. She still sounds beautiful.
My god. Her voice is still every bit as captivating as it ever was.
100%
Lyp synching.
Incredible
No no no. She still performs. @seangorsuch6014
Sure is.
This is one of the best songs of the 90’s. I miss that decade, and the fact that so many women were at the forefront of rock and pop.
Wow moving reply, how long did it take you to write it?
Wow, she is still beautiful & and an angelic voice @ 56 years young !
Oh, to be young and in my mid-50s again...
AND, her rhythm electric guitar playing sounded excellent!
shery crow genes
She still sounds amazing 31 years later 👌
No autotune, no twerking, no rubber lips necessary here. This is real talent, real beauty.❤
👏 🙌 well said! They don't make rock stars like this anymore at all. She is class!
True
💯
There is always a comment just like this on every live performance video on RUclips. 😂
Absolutely!
The album 'Fumbling Towards Ecstasy' absolutely floored me when it came out-for months and months I listened. This brings me back to a time and place I cherish now.
Same. Fumbling Towards Ecstasy is an outstanding album. So many unforgettable, really exquisite tracks.
Following Vox, what a one-two punch of beautiful albums from someone so young! (Shout-out to Halifax, NS)
One of my most favorite albums. Lots of car rides...
I would love to be able to find her hidden track of an acoustic ‘Possesion’ on Fumbling Toward Ecstasy. It’s perfection.
@@dubaidaddy13me too’ I remember falling asleep to it as a teen. It was so comforting. This album is in my top 5 albums of all time if not in my top 3.
that woman's range and breath control is so admirable, she's the real
She’s maintained her vocals because she stays in her range. She hasn’t spent years abusing her cords like so many others.
Perfect performance.
It's a pretty impressive range to start with.
Like who?
@@hanneloreclemenson1228yes. i was wondering that too. our voice ranges typically tick downward with age bc our vocal chords become less elastic ...
@@hanneloreclemenson1228 Sadly, Tori Amos really damaged her voice and has to modify a lot of her old songs to fit a more limited range now.
@@lauramiller751 very true
30 years later and she is still awesome, beautiful voice!
One of very few artists who has proven time and time again that she sounds even better LIVE, than on her albums. Her and her band are nothing short of immaculate up on any stage.
Went to two Lilith Fair's two years in a row. She was always utterly amazing live. Stage presence to match that amazing voice. :)
I agree. I am seeing her in early June. Can’t wait.
@@vickydavis1171 Hmm..
No new album, but she’s touring ?
@@adnap She is touring and stops in Phoenix on June 4th. I can't say if a new album is coming out or not. Maybe.
@@vickydavis1171 Okay, Thank you.
Her voice is from another realm.
I can't believe it's been 30 years since this album came out.❤❤❤
Exactly 💯. I was surprised myself. Wow.👍
Sarah was the only thing I listened to in college ❤
@@amberflora2 This album, Tori Amos' Little Earthquakes and 10,000 Maniacs Our Time In Eden were in heavy rotation for me
She's been incredible her whole career. Absolutely beautiful woman in every way.
I've been telling my wife this song, never really played on the radio back then, but one of her amazing songs ever!!! Go Sarah in 2024!!!!
It was constantly on the radio in my world
@@foxbasealpha5171 Same
Go see her in concert! She's on the road playing the whole Fumbling Towards Ecstasy album!!!
Canadian content 🇨🇦. This was played constantly. The good songs, like this one, survived the overplaying
@@michellebenetvideos and every other hit of hers and then some! Google her setlists from this tour so far. I CANNOT WAIT to go!
Still play this album 30 years on.
wow, 1994, what a year for music!! Fumbling Toward Ecstasy was an absolute amazing CD I played over and over. It was just the beginning of the rocket ship for her. She is still amazing and looks amazing too.
I never tire of this song. Timeless.
Wow. She looks and sounds amazing.
she aged REALLY well.
I forgot I had a massive crush on her voice 27 years ago.
When it feels like they are singing to [you] -they’re doing it right. Which doesn’t always translate over audio alone.
Me, too. Still gives me chills.
she's still young at 56.. once she's past her 60s thats when the major wear and tear will happen
Impeccable. How is that possible? Voice of an angel.
Hearing she is back is better than ice cream.
I got it 😊
😋🍦 One of my all-time FAVES!!! 😆🙌💜
Fabulous. Especially after such a long time. And her backup singer is a show-stopper with great harmonies.
Still a beautiful woman with an incredible voice all these years later!!
I don’t even need a minute. I know every word and lilt that Sarah sings.
It’s so ingrained in me. The 90’s were so good.
I’m ready. Let’s go.
Ikr?
Aye. This song brings me right back to the good old 90s
The world still needs more Sarah McLachlan.
Agree. 👍🌹🙋♀️
This performance gave me chills. I could not take my eyes off of her. So, so good.
Fucking BRILLIANT!!!! Great harmonies, what a pair of voices!!
She hasn't lost a step...still at the top of her game. Sounds and looks amazing. I love that they prominently show the backup singer...instead of hiding her behind a screen, or even worse, using a pre-recorded track. A++++ all around!
Kelly Clarkson promotes her backup singer. She introduces her and lets her sing some solo moments because Kelly always says how amazing she is. It's nice when you see an artist do that.
I’m totally blown away at how great she sounds!! ❤️
Man this song brings back memories. She's as amazing as ever.
This album was everything to me in my twenties…and this performance is everything to me two decades later ❤
That's why you have to go see her in concert! She's on the road right now playing the entire Fumbling Towards Ecstasy album!! It is the touchstone to that period of my life.
Same. Played this album on repeat during my 20’s. Beautiful nostalgia
Sarah still has it all and that band is TIGHT.
Wow, she has just gotten better over the years. So happy to see her singing live again. She looks wonderful as well.
I've always loved her so much. Her voice is velvet
Velvet and hauntingly beautiful.
As a Canadian we obviously all know each other. I used to work with a guy that went to high school with Sarah. He described her as smart, geeky and really into her music. That said I’ve seen her in concert many times in my live and have never left disappointed.
She is so lovely to listen to still and for more years yet, Big Respect.
Always great to see Sara perform live! And OMG what a voice!
Gosh her voice never changes. Her version of this song on her tour a few years back with just the piano and her voice was incredible.
She’s just perfection 🧡
One of the All Time Greatest Artist!
Wow. I’ve always thought that this is one of the most beautiful and powerful songs ever written. This just took me back to a time that I yearned for a love that would lift me out of darkness.
You do know she wrote this song from the perspective of a dude that was stalking her.
How is it that she has not aged AT ALL?! She sounds amazing..... love, love, love Sarah!
She isa very active person, paddleboarding and swimming among other things; very open on her social media. She is an amazing all around person
@@LiveIsBeautiful Good for her! It shows! : ) : )
she has Def aged. she's rocking blonde hair... with dark hair you would see those wrinkles better. and the overall her face is not as full. and the body has def aged, her arms are twice the size they used to be. she looks great.. but let's not drink the kool aid the aging signs are EVERYWHERE
Just Beautiful Sarah… so glad to see you again
Pure Jewel . She and here voice are still amazing after 30 years when I discovered her with this song 😍
Saw her live back in the day - her body of work is impressive. Still sounds great!
30 years after the album and this still sounds fabulous. Amazing
This show is going to be soooooo good. This never gets old.
Wow!!! Still sings it like yesterday and also... still... so freaking pretty.....Beauty, Talent, etc.... Outstanding!!!!
That bass line is really tight! Awesome
Angel harmonic...so lovely, as always. Adore you Sarah.
I wore this album out..every single song was such a timeless gift.
YESSSSS Sarah, love this song and what a voice!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sarah has apparently found the fountain of youth. Hauntingly beautiful voice.
One of the very best! Beautiful songwriter, phenomenal voice! I have listened to her music for many years and many nights..
I can’t get enough of her! Just wish that she would have created more music, because her music touches my soul!
I randomly bought this CD in one of those "10 CD's for 1.00" BMG type things. I couldn't believe how amazing the album was, and then suddenly, she became famous.
Please come back with a new album Sarah. You are a pure talent
Never tell me that Sarah isn't a ROCK STAR. She is a ROCK STAR!
Been a fan since "Into the Fire" but this was always my favourite song of hers. So haunting and ethereal, with that kick-ass bassline. 💕
This is the best performance I've ever seen on Jimmy Kimmel show. I don't make a habit to watch it, but I'm so glad I saw this. This song got me through so much hardship growing up, and inspired me to use music as a means of healing and self therapy. Every lyric in this song is precious, and so is Sarah. Glad to see her healing hearts again. I wish her all the very best as she tours America again.
she's so good !! she looks very nice and her voice still amazing !!!
Yep. Monster crush still fully intact 😍
Sarah's music has always been very percussive/bass driven...suits her songs and vocal stylings perfectly...Sublime...
Saw her live a bunch of times back in the day….. can’t WAIT to see her in less than a month at Red Rocks - the best venue there is!!!
Wow. Her voice sounds as good as it did 30 years ago. I saw her in concert about 10 years ago, but this performance blew me away. What a voice. She had an amazing stretch of great music. Transcended me right back to a great period.
Love sarah. My sister died 30 years ago and introduced me to her. Reminds me of Margaret
The voice of an angel. Got to see her live on this most recent tour for Fumbling 39tb anniversary. It felt like such a spiritual moment to relive that album live. Still gorgeous as ever. Her voice is absolute perfection at this stage of her life. How does she get more gorgeous over time too?! ❤
I saw her last weekend and she was phenomenal. Absolutely amazing show.
My goodness she has aged ever so gracefully! 😍 And her voice hasn't changed at all! Amazing!

She's just amazing so glad you stayed in shape and your voice is still incredible way to go Sarah❤
Excellent!!!

I loved the song so much, especially the piano version. It always reminds me of the past when everything was somehow easier.
Wonderful voice
This is one of my all time favorites!! So beautiful & meaningful ❤❤ she’s always been amazing!
Absolutely living for this!!! I was, am, and will always be the girl driving around listening to Fumbling and Surfacing.
A beautiful fellow Canadian from Halifax, Nova Scotia. Sublime!🇨🇦
Wow all this time and she still sounds amazing and is still gorgeous!
I’m in love again. Love Sarah and love real music.
I've loved her since the 90's!!! What an amazing and complete artist!
Queen! This is spectacular. Can’t wait to see her in a few weeks. It’s been too long. ❤
She's still celestial! What a voice,what a beauty. ❤💥🎶💯
I listened to her album 'Fumbling Towards Ecstacy' quite a lot some thirty years ago. Glad that she returned to the stage and next generations can still enjoy her music.

Did you have the poster with her with her holding her arms over her head? That poster is a key 90s artifact.
Same!
Sarah McLachlan has aged like the finest wine. What an absolutely beautiful woman! I'm seeing her just outside Detroit tonight! Can't wait!
Sarah sounds just as beautiful as ever! 💗
