kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z6SM2ramotSeeag.html This one is an amazing performance of one of her lesser known songs

Ever since she added the piano section an octave lower to start the song, Fear is her best song to hear live. The sudden octave change has an incredible affect on the song and the audience. Sarah will always be one of a kind and Fumbling Towards Ecstasy is still a masterpiece to this day.

I've had the pleasure of hearing this song live in person twice (once from about this video's era and once more recently). At concert volume, with concert adrenaline, being part of the total live experience...this song is hands down the most powerful vocal performance I've ever experienced. You literally are holding your breath throughout that entire high range run which just keeps building and building and building. In person live, it's not just a song it is an amazing experience. Seriously, this one song alone is worth the price of a ticket to a Sarah McLachlan concert.

Agreed. She also sang ‘Silence’ on the UK leg of this tour (I saw it in San Jose, USA & in Manchester, UK) & it was out of this world.

I’d never heard this particular version of the song before, but this took me back 30 years, to when I was rather obsessed with her. Her voice is still something special.

She has an ethereal quality to her voice that is amazing and beautiful. One of my favorite female singers.

I think she's got some definite Enya/Cocteau Twins influence.

Sarah's backup singers live also have always been really well matched to her voice. I know in Mirrorball and in the Fumbling Towards Ecstasy tour live DVD she used the same singer (Camille Henderson) because of how well matched their voices are. Uncertain of why she started using someone different by this tour, but this singer sounds good, too.

Sarah is a Canadian treasure.

All of these years later, I still follow her. Her voice is just haunting.

I recently started singing lessons for the first time in my life (I've sung for myself all my life, but I never had the money to take classes to learn techniques up until now) and I said to my teacher that I absolutely loved this song but that some of the notes were too high for me and it made me sad because I couldn't sing it. He had heard me sing for about 2 or 3 classes at this point and he just told me "I don't believe you" and he taught me what I needed (mostly WAY more support) to achieve it and now I can!!! I kind of surprised myself!! This song is so intense and it's impossible to sing the high notes if you don't sing them loudly, strongly. I sang to my partner and he had tears in his eyes just because of the power of the vibrations this song demands. It was a beautiful moment.🥰

She has to have had influence from Cocteau Twins' Elizabeth Fraser. Musically she has influence from them and The Cure and other alternative 80s bands in the way her music sounds.

Her AFTERGLOW ALBUM... CD IS A MASTER PIECE OF MUSIC!

Listening to Sarah without sharing a tear is almost impossible. Building a Mystery, brings me so much memories.

One of her best songs. And she has a lot of great songs! That piano opening with the lower vocal register threw me, because the studio version is entirely (?) in the upper register. I thought she might have lost a lot of her range. But she did not! Absolutely amazing.

I once painted a therapeutic abstract piece on canvas from this song on repeat as I sang it, and I then sold it at a yard sale to a teenager. Wish I had at least took a photo of it first.

Camille backing Sarah on "Ice" live on mirrorball is the most beautiful sound ever recorded!

Great reaction and analysis. Those high harmonies are really an iconic part of Sarah McLachlan's sound and a big part of what makes her sound like her. Als, I loved the theremin at the end.

she puts me in a calm mood. Listen to while playing online games.

Check out Fumbling Towards Ecstacy from Mirrorball! That performance is killer.

"I've got four octaves range. Peep" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. She can really sing up there.

Like the analysis, Beth. It's one thing to have that kind of tremendous range but it's another to know how to use it the right way. Pretty spectacular.

Thank you, Beth. I had to the good fortune to see Sarah perform here in Melbourne a few years back and was totally blown away! Like so much good music, there's a whole other level of resonance when you're physically present. (FYI: the clip's audio sounded a bit distorted, like it was maxing out here and there.)

Absolutely love this song.. if you can find the version she did for under a blackened sky it was done years before this. That note she hits is higher and probably the best version, it will blow you away! 😍

Love her.

She’s amazing

I was lucky enough to see her live in 2014 and her performance of this song BLEW me away! Check out her and her daughter singing Angel. Yes it was recorded in their living room (during the pandemic) but her daughter has a good voice!

Actually for a warm, more happy sounding song from her, check out "The Sound That Love Makes". You'll be humming it the rest of the day.

I think I remember Sarah McLauchlan best for I Will Remember You. It was big in the mid 90s. For more 90s Canadian content, check out Elton John’s favourite Canadian singer (no joke) Amanda Marshall. She’s very soulful. Almost like a Canadian Janis Joplin. If I Didn’t Have You, Let It Rain, Fall From Grace and Believe In You, among others, are terrific, under-appreciated songs.

A multi-talented Canadian from Nova Scotia for whom "it's not what you've got but what you do with what you've got", someone who knows the difference between a "minefield" and a 'mindfield'.

please react to this same concert but with the song "possession" Sarah is wonderful... Beth te amo!!!

I have seen her live many times and I noticed something interesting about this song. On her album FTE she sings this song entirely in her higher register. When she started touring for the album, she would also sing this song just like the album. Then in later tours she sang the song entirely in a lower register, like the first half of this version you react to. Eventually she mixed the two versions and seems to have settled with this one, which in my opinion, is the best version.

Kudos to her backup singers!!!

I would absolutely love to hear you react to Chinchilla, the live version of Fingers 🤞🤞🤞

I love your red hair. I don't know how you can just miss a couple of octaves, though. She is getting really high up there.

You should do "possession' from the same concert if you haven't reviewed that one already.

Love Sarah's voice but this song was not one of my favorites and I think it's because as you said she starts off singing closed off and I want to hear her voice ring out like I know she can.

1:49 "You don't need to have excessive range to be able to sing something that is really, really . . . that touches people." Wait for it.

You are wrong about her range. She goes up there. You cannot even hear her at times.

Not the best performance of this song. "Fear" live was done far better in 1994.

The most amazing thing about sarah is that she can record a song in studio a number of different ways, and they are all beautiful, and then perform them live in a radio dj's booth one on one, in a tv studio to 50 people, a concert hall of 2,000 an arena of twenty thousand, or an outdoor stadium of 100,000 and still be just as beautiful, clear, and consistent. No other performer that i've ever seen (whether live or on video) has been able to pull that off, time and again, for years on end.

I totally get why youse guys vocal coaches like to look at live performances. But gotta say, this one was underwhelming. Sometimes the OG recording is the pinnacle, even if all her stuff is flaming emo chick music.
