		Surfacing is the album to listen to if you are not familiar with Sarah McLachlan and the bottom line is, this album is amazing.
		This album is not to be missed, and will be prized by those who recognize the rarity of a true lyricist and ballad artist whose gifts are on par with the best.
		Overall, "Surfacing" is further testimony that Sarah McLachlan is one of our finest popular performing and recording artists, a songwriter with real vision and a rare ability translate that into pieces that radiate identity.

	Sarah McLachlan Album Reviews (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The problems with the album, and they’re relatively minor ones, are that songs such as “Wait” and “Ice” get by on their haunting atmosphere without being especially memorable, plus a boredom factor that creeps in from time to time.
		On a more experimental front, the operatic industrialism of “Fear” is certainly different, while “Possession,” the album’s first and best song (reprised in a slower, acoustic version at album’s end), became a minor hit and took Sarah’s success outside of her homeland of Canada, where she was already a star.
		Surfacing generally features her lone piano and other subtle shadings, while relying on her beautiful, often-breathy vocals to make up for mundane melodies.

	Surfacing
		The songs on this album are all instrumental featuring a wide array of synthesizers, percussion, guitar, harmonica, flute and effects.
		Surfacing blends nearly classical orchestra sounds with jazz funk.
		I call it surfacing because some new ideas came to the surface for the first time.

	Looking Closer - review of Surfacing (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Surfacing sounds good, but lyrically McLachlan's work here lacks the poetry of her previous effort.
		"Surfacing" is a hodge-podge of popular religious references; there's enough questions and references to the supernatural to give her that popular "I've-got-a-spiritual-side" flair, but her cynicism towards traditional Christianity keeps her safe from un-stylish religious identifications.
		"Surfacing" is well worth a listen, but there's a lot of new stuff out there that deserves your sixteen bucks before this.

	Surfacing by Sarah McLachlan CD
		SURFACING is a group of straightforward songs which get right to the point, both musically and lyrically, dealing with such heavy topics as faith, life and death in an appealingly accessible way.
		"Surfacing" has a great batch of top 40 radio hits on it, but the heart of Sarah's talent is missing, it's a mystery as to why she took such a huge step back.
		Sadly, after a 7 year wait, her new album "Afterglow" follows much of the same top 40 pattern, one can only hope the follow up to that will be quick in it's coming, and brilliant in it's sound.

	Sarah McLachlan - Surfacing
		Angel is another gem in that same category: in fact, only one of these three songs would have in itself justified buying the entire album.
		Surfacing is so much better, so much more mature than her previous Fumbling Toward Ecstasy.
		Here, she has left out all the unnecessary embellishments, and has found the confidence to let her music and her voice speak for themselves.

	Surfacing [ECD] - Sarah McLachlan - Review - Suffocating on Surfacing (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Despite what producer Pierre Marchand and Sarah say about "Solace" (an album of "unfinished" songs), that sophomore effort from 1991 far outstrips this later one in terms of novelty, excitement and inspiration.
		To top it all, one cut was already out there before "Surfacing", having been released on the (mostly) wonderful Canadian "Rarities, B-sides and Other Stuff" from '96.
		I'm truly surprised how lacklustre this album is, considering that Pierre Marchand has proven himself before as a producer with trustworthy instincts.

	Sarah McLachlan: album reviews and ratings
		Producer Pierre Marchand expertly stacks McLachlan’s sticky-sweet vocal harmonies one on top of the other; (...) So much of the album is about restraint, so that by the time she (and we, vicariously) reach the album’s title track she truly is on her way towards ecstasy.
		She is a skillful composer, sensitive enough to write an album inspired in part by the death of her mother and the birth of her baby girl.
		McLachlan's first studio album since 1997's multiplatinum Surfacing, Afterglow finds her surrounded by a coterie of fine musicians concocting cinematic moments of orchestral fervor on Stupid as well as an unstoppable groove of swirling optimism on the crackling Train Wreck.

	Album Surfacing
		Surfacing was released as the first Lilith Fair tour hit the road, and Sarah McLachlan benefited enormously from the timing.
		All the commercial success and media hype disguised the fact that Surfacing not only didn't offer anything new from McLachlan, but it wasn't a particularly strong consolidation of her talents.
		And that suggests that even though McLachlan is at the height of her popularity, she may beginning to run out of ideas.

		Much to Sarah's surprise, the album went Gold in Canada and she was suddenly rocketed to stardom and hailed as that year's most exciting and important new artist.
		McLachlan has made a career out of putting herself on the line emotionally; fans are repeatedly drawn in to her candor and forthrightness.
		Although Surfacing's recording process spanned an eight month period, Sarah admits that the project took considerably longer than that.

		Well it's been 6 long years since Sarah has released an album and if your a fan like me you'll know that 6 years is a very long time, but in true Sarah style she has come back as strong as ever.
		This album reminds me of both mirrorball and surfacing it's the same style that's not a bad thing in my opinion because I think these where two of her best album's so this is like a follow up...same approach to songs etc.
		Stupid is the only real rock song on the album and is fantastic, and the album continues in a folksy, jazzy, light rocky sorta way through other standout tracks such as the haunting "Answer" and lovely ballads drifitng, and train wreck...

		Surfacing is Sarah McLachlan’s seminal album and on this set it makes up the first half of the overall package.
		Obviously Surfacing is a brilliant album whilst Mirrorball is only an okay one.
		It’s plain to hear — the forty-or-so minutes of Surfacing are some of the best musical moments you’re likely to hear this year (the fact that they’re from 1997 is beside the point).

	Access to the Music Zone - September 1997 - New Releases - Lisa Stansfield, Sarah McLachlan
		This album is full of average lyrics and exceptional vocals.
		While I still see "Fumbling" as the better album, "Surfacing" may well be the best female-fronted album of 1997.
		"Surfacing" already promises to be Sarah's biggest commercial success as the first single, "Building a Mystery" is in full rotation on just about every radio station in the country.

	Reviews of Sarah McLachlan \| Surfacing, The Minus 5 \| The Lonesome Death of Buck McCoy, and Dick Dale \| Better Shred ...
		Surfacing holds true to the elements that made her last album, Fumbling Towards Ecstasy (1993) a classic of its genre - swirling melodies, mixed with brooding lyrics and densely-layered instrumentation.
		Maybe half the album is brilliant (and I mean, I liked it from the word go); the other half is of lesser quality.
		Though he has only recorded ten studio albums (Dale did not release any vinyl between 1965 and 1983, when he released Tiger's Loose, then went another ten years before releasing 1993's Tribal Thunder), his influence is enormous.

	Sarah McLachlan Biography. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		An album title that alludes to the sense of 'rising' is most fitting for Sarah McLachlan.
		The album was recorded in producer/engineer Pierre Marchand's Ciel Sauvage Studios in Montreal, home to McLachlan's much-acclaimed previous effort, Fumbling Towards Ecstasy.
		Reaction to that album was even stronger; tracks like "Drawn To The Rhythm" and "Into The Fire" took Sarah's music out from the underground and into an enraptured mainstream.

		Her first album, Touch, was a huge success in Canada in 1988, but it wasn't until six years later that Sarah's career skyrocketed.
		The singer's next album, Surfacing, proved to be as big of a success as the previous one in 1997, gaining nominations for many awards and an even bigger following of devoted fans (Sarah McLachlan Biography).
		She exemplifies the upward mobilization of women, or rather the "surfacing" of women as her newest album is appropriately entitled.

	Pierre Marchand
		Sarah's two major breakthrough albums, Surfacing and Fumbling Towards Ecstasy, have both gone triple platinum in the USA and Canada, and she enjoyed an impressive hit single in the UK with the graceful ballad 'Adia' (from Surfacing).
		During the pre-production for that album we were looking for some quiet space to work, and stumbled on this house here by chance.
		On Surfacing he used the MPC60 purely for drum loops, whereas keyboards and samplers (a Kurzweil K2000 and Emu E4) were sequenced in Emagic Logic Audio for the PC, using an Aardvark 20/20 soundcard.

		The album is not bad at all, it just doesn't seem to have a wide range of appeal, maybe it's meant for the women, who knows.
		Once I put this album on I did my usual ritual of skipping song to song, trying to find get a feel for the album, and seeing if there is anything that I HAVE to make sure I listen to in full later.
		At first listen of the Surfacing LP we are greeted with a few tracks full with bragadocio lyrics slamming all the rest in means to display Prizm's tallents on the mic.

		I remembered her from her silence dance song, and i liked her voice on Sheryl Crow's live album so i invested in Surfacing and was amazed at how good she is. Her voice is so powerful and strong, and her lyrics are really emotional.
		My favourite tracks off this album are Building a mystery, sweet surender and adia which are all amazing songs and made me buy a few other of Mclachlans albums, this is the best in my opinion but the others especially fumbling...are excellent buys and i now think she's one of the top female singers around.
		Why oh why is it so hard to purchase sarah mclachlan albums in this country.please please listen to one of the best female artists i have ever had the pleasure to listen to, i have converted my fiance as well.

		When I first heard her way back in the mid 90's I just knew that her voice and sound was timeless and she would be an artist I would be listening to for a very long time.
		I'm so glad she is back out with a new album after taking about a three or four year hiatus.
		I've missed hearing new stuff by her on the radio so when I hear "Fallen" a couple of months ago you know I was excited.
