Album Review

Dedicated fans of Sarah McLachlan had a lot to buy in 2008, when the Canadian songwriter issued three retrospective albums. Rarities, B-Sides & Other Stuff, Vol. 2 led the pack in April, followed by a deluxe edition of Fumbling Toward Ecstasy several months later. Closer: The Best of Sarah McLachlan brought up the rear, arriving in October and compiling McLachlan's greatest hits along with two new songs. "Don't Give Up on Us" and "U Want Me 2" are standard McLachlan tunes, mixing adult contemporary songcraft with the soothing, evergreen vocals that helped her rise to prominence. As always, producer Pierre Marchand helms both of those new songs, and his presence throughout this compilation — not to mention McLachlan's steady songcraft — helps make Closer a consistent, unified work. Casual fans will find what they need in the regular 16-track version, while diehards might want to look at the two-disc version, which includes additional songs and several remixes. ~ Andrew Leahey, Rovi

Sarah past and present
     

I first heard of Sarah McLachlan when I heard "Posession" on the radio. I loved it's earthy and haunting sound. It reminded me of Irish artist Loreena McKennett. I ended up getting her first album for my birthday ("Surfacing"). I also a few years later got "Afterglow." I liked both albums a lot but I never really listened to her earlier songs. That's what's so great about this greatest hits collection. It includes her earlier material and not just the more recent hits like "Fallen" and "Building A Mystery." While she may be more popular with women than men I still enjoy her original sound. She does remind me a lot of Loreena McKennitt (I Hope I spelled her name right). This is a worthwhile purchase especially since it's only $7.99 on itunes! How can you go wrong with a price like that?
