**** GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED. CONGRATS TO Heather of the EO WHO WON! :)****
I love Sarah McLachlan. I have for YEARS.
(I surely hope you know who I am talking about. If you don’t, get thee to iTunes or Amazon NOW!)
She’s so very talented and her music is tied to SO many memories of my young adult-hood and first years with Tim. Therefore I love her even more.
Her latest CD, and first in 7 years, “Laws of Illusion” was released this week and does NOT disappoint. She still sounds like the Sarah that I’ve always known and adored. Some may find her same sound redundant but I personally find it takes me to my “happy place” and that’s a really good thing.
My favorite song on the new album so far is “Forgiveness,” followed closely by the first single, “Loving You is Easy“. I’ve listened to them both A LOT in the last few days.
The amazing Sarah has had “a career spanning more than two decades, over 20 million career sales to date and every one of her studio and live albums has been certirifed gold, platinum or multi-platinum by the RIAA. ”
And all this right before the 2010 Lilith Fair Tour begins (I SO wish I could go to one of the stops!) Talk about awesome memories from the late ’90’s (yes, I’m getting old…)
The best part of this is that I have one CD of “Laws of Illusion” to give away to one of you lucky ducks. Just leave me a comment telling me one of your favorite female artists of all time.
I will choose a winner early next week – probably Tuesday.
You can gain an extra entry by tweeting this giveaway and leaving a separate comment that you did so.
Please make sure I have a way to contact you should you win, when I choose a winner with Random.org.
And if you don’t win, I still suggest you buy this album. It’s Sarah perfection all over again…
*Disclaimer – I was sent one album of Sarah McLachlan’s new album for review purposes only through the One@One Network. I have chosen to share that CD with one of my readers. I was in no other way compensated for this review. These are my honest opinions.
Man, #1? #1 never gets chosen!
One of my favorites is Natalie Merchant.
ARGH! I was going to give this away on my blog…..but since you are, I will tell you that I am Sarah’s biggest fan in the Universe and would marry her if she would have me.
I have loved her since the 90’s before she was “well known”. I even saw her at the last Lilith Fair and cried like a baby……
Ok, sounds kind of cheesy, but my favorite female artist has to be Shania Twain. Hearing her takes me back to my college days in an instant.
Favorite female artist? Probably Tori Amos. But I’ve been listening to Sarah since I was 12, no lie. I grew up listening to Canadian radio and remeber hearing ‘Into the Fire’ and LOVING her.

Sarah has been one of my favorites forever!! Tori Amos too, especially her old stuff
Of course Madonna is on my list too. She’s an icon. And I’ll always love Stevie Nicks- that’s SO old school, but I can’t help it. I grew up on her!
I tweeted too!

sad to say but I really do like Celine Dion…if I close my eyes and listen and ignore her crazy monkey arm antics when she performs…I become emotional.
Sarah is great too..very talented and I would love to win this album!
I’m in love with Jennifer Knapp!
I’ma give you two. Jennifer Nettles (her solo stuff is AMAZING.) and Chely Wright.
I want to be the lucky duck that wins! I love Sarah. It was all I could do today not to spend money and buy the CD. I will though, unless I win it from you.
Favorite female artist?
That’s tough- right now I am searching and searching for my KT Tundstall CD. I’ll claim her for the contest. But, I truly love Sarah!
spend all your time waiting for the second chance, for the break that would make it okay, there’s always some reason to feel not good enough, and it’s hard at the end of the day…I need some distraction, oh a beautiful release…
ok. sorry.
I do love Sarah too, a lot.
And my other fave female singer/songwriter – Sara Groves
and also Edie Brickell.
and also…
just kidding.
Thanks for the chance, lady.

OH MY GOSH! Sarah reminds me of living in my very first apartment, drinking cheap wine, and healing my broken heart while listening to her songs. Oh man. That really brings back some memories. I have two of her CDs. So good.
My FAVORITE female artist of all time has got to be Ella Fitzgerald. That woman’s voice. It makes me melt. LOVE HER.
I LOVE SARAH!!! I saw her at Lillith Fair with Sheryl Crow…it was ah-freakin mazing. One of my favorite songs has always been Ice Cream and Adia.

Sarah McLachlan is definitely one of my favorites. I also love Sara Groves!
She is one of my favs. I also like Jann Arden and Jewel.
It’s so hard to pick just one. Sheryl Crow, Taylor Swift, Alicia Keys.

I do love Sarah McLachlan’s voice – she is definitely one of my favs, although I would say Madonna is way up there.
