I’m mostly a rock, hard rock, metal, guy but I jammed this album all thru my youth. What an angelic voice with heart wrenching lyrics. God bless you Sarah! Edit: thanks for all the awesome replies! So many Sarah McLachlan fans out there even tho she hasn’t had a radio hit for decades. Amazing!

She Is incredible

[@calomega]

My dad snuck me into her concert at Fox Theater in Boulder Colorado when I was 13 yrs old. Life changing experience. Decades later still listening to her transformative music.

[@banjammy7367]

Saw concerts in the Fox theater,in Saint Louis, Supertramp, you probably haven't heard of them but I'm guessing your dad has , saw them the year Crime of the Century came out, very good.

[@aethrya]

That's gangster dude 🤙

[@makesnodifference]

@@banjammy7367 I live in STL and saw her live at Fox in 2014 I think it was Took my husband, he doesn't know her music but I had the time of my life and cried my ass off. He patiently held me while I let her music heal me Salud

[@marcemor742]

She’s amazing, love her music, I haven’t had the privilege of seeing her live.

[@mr.jazzbodkelsey58]

Nice! There's a Fox Theater in Oakland, too. I usually just buy a ticket, tho 🙃

[@johncostello6043]

In my opinion, the mark of a great song is that it's a song that you never get sick of, no matter how many times you hear it. For me, this is one of those songs. Thank you for sharing this.

[@eddieayyash2314]

your opinion ???? is ???? right !!!!

[@feg3akatrey144]

I mean, wow - just ... WOW. Not only does she hold that last note for ~17 seconds, she begins it by singing several words, THEN holds the note AND still has enough left to modulate her voice UP at the end of it. Extraordinary voice/breath control ... I'd have passed out around the 5sec mark! (btw, at ~4.21, you can quickly see her draw-in that breath). Such a beautiful song, proving that sometimes life's most daunting challenges can be surmounted and then manifest in impactful expressions of art, in its many forms.

[@LL-mw1zu]

Absolutely 🤗

[@johnthorne4093]

You are SO right; Sarah is underrated as a vocal technician. Maybe she could have been a huge success in opera.

[@keithluhrs5538]

Absolutely agree. Hand how about her band? These guys keep it moving along and the guitar interplay is so sweet.

[@asimrathore7858]

It's easy for Her! (My majesty) She is a witch! One of the most beautiful ones.

[@asimrathore7858]

All that in a live performance!!!!! Amazing! Amazing.

[@keithluhrs5538]

Is there any doubt about this woman's musical ability? Sarah kills it!

[@mattseegmiller62]

Sarah's voice, confidence, looks and energy levels are a thing of beauty. I'll admit: This song gives me goosebumps.

Sarah is one of a kind. That is an incontrovertible fact.

Lyrical genius.

[@MerrickTheAlien]

Her breathless euphoria after she holds that last note and just vibes with the crowd is practically palpable - absolutely LOVE

[@LuKasAV6]

Sarah brilliantly delved into the head of her stalker and created a masterpiece! This song still scares me.

[@riquelmerock]

The backup vocals by KATHRYN ROSE are absolutely magnificent!!!

[@stephenp.harris5050]

I thought i was the only one that noticed & appreciated those back up vocals, esp during the end where Sarah holds that long note. Back up vocals at that specific time were prob better than Sarah herself

[@dalejenkins2827]

Always wondered who she was! Ms Rose's voice is the perfect compliment to Sarah. Only other close harmony with beautiful highs are Simon & Garfunkel- Scarborough Fair, America

[@riquelmerock]

@@dalejenkins2827 Agree 100%. K.Rose only worked on this tour; the original backup singer for Sarah (both live and studio) is CAMILLE HENDERSON. Check this out kzbin.info/www/bejne/fp62aX-FZcmLnck

[@edithguzman7277]

Yes, they were lines in a letter an obsessed stalker wrote her. She put it into an incredible song. After the song was released, the guy committed suicide.

[@keithshowell6688]

If Sarah had been just a "One Hit Wonder" this would have been the only song I'd need to hear and call her "Legendary". My headphones exploded the first time I heard its debut as if it were yesterday. She has to be inducted into the Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame someday!

[@justinmckinley9114]

Saw her at a free show in government center boston in the mid late nineties. Stunning! Such a gifted musician.

[@brianmcdowell3728]

Wow. Watching and hearing this gave me chills…..incredible performance.

[@HBlatz87]

You know, I came here to say "I like hard rock and metal and this isn't really my scene but this is a GREAT song". And, funny enough, there's already a bunch of comments saying pretty much the same thing. This song may not be "heavy metal" by definition but it has the energy and the attitude. Not to mention an absolutely killer performance.

[@photoshopskillz3041]

I remember browsing new music CDs at my local Warehouse music shop, No WiFi back then, this song started playing thru the speakers. By compulsion something "possessed me" to ask the girl clerk "who was this singing?" -IMMEDIATELY bought the CD- Haven''t stopped listening to McLachlan since.

[@rogersimmons4029]

I think this is maybe one of the greatest songs of all time

[@andrewdockstader8681]

even though I'm a metalhead Sarah's voice calms me down....she hosted the Junos here in London in 2019....her voice is incredible and her music is great as well...an award winning musician for sure!

How eloquently She made a beautiful song of a terrifying experience. A man was stalking her a real threat. She overcame and even appears to have understood his out of control feelings.
