| Our Final stop on our Sarah McLachlan tour is Monsters, which was on the Shine On album (2014) I've chosen this as the final song because it shocked me. My Sarah McLachlan journey 100% centres around her albums between 1994 and 2005. I certainly continued listening to them well beyond 2005. But her "newer" albums (between 2006 and 2016) mean very little to me. I've probably given them all a cursory listen, but I know for sure it cannot have been more than once or twice (if that). When I started looking for songs for this challenge, I already knew that the first two albums would be mostly ignored. However, I don’t think I anticipated having four more recent albums that would also hold very little for me. Given that I'm writing this for WDC—a website I used to love but then disappeared from—the similarities struck me as something I need to explore but not overthink  More specifically, I've chosen Monsters because when I played it, I instantly recognised it, but I cannot think why. And I don't mean from the album but from somewhere else. It used to be that whenever I would hear a Sarah McLachlan song (on the radio or TV, I would immediately recognise it and point it out. I think I have heard Monsters somewhere and not realised what it was. So, it would seem that I have four albums to explore! When we were young there were always creatures lurking under the bed A thousand year old dragon lived deep in the lake and he said don’t be afraid So you dove in He seemed so sweet and lovely he made you laugh and made you forget about the rain Showed you new tricks on guitar hidden talents that erases the pain |
