Sarah McLachlan - Adia | SkollWF 2019

With over 30 years in the recording industry, Sarah McLachlan is a multi-platinum singer and songwriter best known for her intimate vocals and relatable lyrics. Canadian-born, McLachlan is a multiple Grammy and Juno Award winning artist who has sold over 40 million albums throughout her career and was recently inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame. McLachlan has also been awarded the Elizabeth Cady Stanton Visionary Award and is an Officer of the Order of Canada. In addition to her personal artistic efforts, in 1997 McLachlan founded the Lilith Fair tour, which showcased female musicians and brought more than 2 million people together over its three-year run. Lilith Fair raised over $7 million for local and national charities and helped launch the careers of numerous female performers. The festival was the most successful all-female music event and was the top-grossing touring festival during its run.
In 2002 McLachlan founded her non-profit organization, the Sarah McLachlan School of Music. The School of Music serves over 1,000 at-risk and underserved youth in Vancouver and Edmonton each year and provides, at no cost: • A high-quality music program staffed with talented mentors, youth facilitators & guest artists • A space for at-risk and underserved children and youth to develop the confidence they need to explore their strengths and overcome their challenges • An opportunity for students to develop strong relationships with their peers and instructors • A long-term commitment that nurtures trust, growth, and personal development The school is funded entirely through private donations and McLachlan covers 100% of the administrative costs through her Foundation, so that all funds raised go directly to the student's education. The scientific evidence of music's value is increasing every day, there is no doubt that music has a positive effect on every child's life.

[@luclauer3171]

Ridiculously effortless. What a talented writer as well!

Deserves her place among the greatest of all.

[@mayasmusic1763]

She is one of my inspirations! I did a cover of her song Angel and I hope you can listen! kzbin.info/www/bejne/aIm3gqV-ma-aotE

[@jessieamper4399]

Ladies and gent's I hope we all agree, that this is Brilliant.

[@John_Malloy]

"Believe me...we are still innocent, 'Cause we are born innocent... It's easy, we all falter, Does it matter?" Yes it does matter because there is the problem of the existence of evil which is the cause of untold suffering. New Age religionists would like us to believe that evil doesn't exist. Can you see it? Nice melody, but the lyric is insidious.

[@shawngallacher2231]

What is even more impressive is she writes all her material . Unbelievable talent !

[@John_Malloy]

Wrong: A man, Pierre Marchand co-wrote the song.

[@sapphire5755]

Co-written by McLachlan and Marchand.

[@timwalsh715]

Pure . . .genuine . . .silky . . .sublime . . . understatedly spectacular . . .absolutely - PERFECT! I'm out of superlatives!

[@samreich7042]

EVEN AFTER HER FIRST DEBUT IN SINGING THIS SONG, SHE SOUNDS JUST AS PURE AND AS GENTLE.

[@w0by]

Dang, her voice is still perfect!

[@mayasmusic1763]

She is one of my inspirations! I did a cover of her song Angel and I hope you can listen! kzbin.info/www/bejne/aIm3gqV-ma-aotE

[@rubenpartono]

There are people who age gracefully. Not Sarah though, she ages unfairly. 😅

[@tunestopeacerecords]

Brilliant songwriting! This is such a great song. And what a voice! 22 years after release, she still sounds absolutely wonderful.

[@wilfredbaluyot9608]

My favourite song since I was in elementary untill now. I'm 35 YO now

[@dnoiseproject4947]

I love her since I first listened "Adia" when I was a kid, back in 1997. Beautiful!

[@bettyfindley5098]

Adia and Angels are her biggest selling songs. She paved the way for Celine Dion, Nelly Furtado and Michael Buble. Sarah has such a beautiful voice!

[@1234willali]

I love Canadian singers.

[@jimkraft7266]

good lord, such a beautiful performance made me break down into tears she puts such emotion into it.. wow...

[@alexanderromo9911]

From the 90s to 2022... one of the best singers

[@paul_desjardins]

Beautiful voice and talent, also can I add she looks like a 35 years old women at her best.

[@dnoiseproject4947]

She's like fine wine.

[@soysaucehairdye7869]

One of Patrice O'neal's favorite songs. RIP bigmommaprods.

[@willcortez5]

@SoySauce HairDye I'm here after O&A video, hahaha brilliant

[@fabiorodrigues3531]

Que arraso !! Piano e voz ao vivo não é para qualquer um. Muitos artistas "se escondem" atrás de playbacks, enquanto alguns dão show ao vivo.

[@kontesica]

Just beautiful! She is such a beauty and sings heavenly...

[@primusmossjr]

This lady sings beautifully! Spellbinding!

[@bettyfindley5098]

Sarah, Nelly, Celine, Alanis, Shania & Alessia are true Canadian treasures!

[@farghifar]

Also avril

[@wita5984]

and chantal!

[@scottbarr2889]

RUSH

[@user-se7vt5ow4e]

Holly.

[@razrv3lc]

Her voice is smoother here than it usually is and that’s saying something. She slowed this down too, so that may have something to do with it.

[@mayasmusic1763]

She is one of my inspirations! I did a cover of her song Angel and I hope you can listen! kzbin.info/www/bejne/aIm3gqV-ma-aotE

[@OracleofHera]

Exceptionally classy, beautiful, and talented. She is amazing. ❤

[@marcelovieira9405]

[@Sidenstick7788]

A voice so good, just close your eyes and it's like getting a blanket put over you near a fire on a cold winters night❤

golm nmoe

[@normandboileau5308]

You are nice

[@RD-zj6vc]

She's still hot.

[@jdcampbell9613]

Its about God. “Aeiouy( YHWH) I do believe I failed you…….” Its a prayer.

[@andyshores9391]

It's about a friend of hers, I believe she ended up with her ex.

[@normandboileau5308]

Parles-tu Français

[@ChicagoIL50]

She looks different....🤔

[@josephstitt1006]

I wonder if she ever forgave her

[@1234willali]

Probably forgotten as well lol jk

[@The_Candyman86]

I heard shakira in there

[@michaelhughes3302]

This song while absolutely beautiful, is a sad reminder that folks can't quite manage a proper apology. Sarah fcuked her best friends man. Giving a half apology in a song, who's lyrics don't address the issue of guilt. That's disfunctional/narcissism behavior.

[@stereomois]

They are still close friends, though.

[@PatrickDAmato]

Sarah I hated your voice back in the late 90s possession rarities b sides 🐝other stuff see you Tuesday 💋✋😇✌️🐦‍⬛

[@oknarphianexkraveduccial4325]

Love Sarah but not this performance
