Surfacing is the fourth album by singer Sarah McLachlan from Halifax, Canada who is very popular in her own country. Her voice sounds crystal clear and very diverse on this CD. One minute you hear something from Joan Osborne and Tori Amos (Building A Mystery), but also something from Sinead O'Connor (I Love You, Adia) can be found in her voice. Surfacing is a record with very personal self-written
… romantic pop songs. This is especially evident in songs such as Do What You Have To Do and Angel, for which an article in Rolling Stone magazine about fellow musicians who lost their lives to heroin was a source of inspiration. Recommended! (CK)more
