Sarah McLachlan “Laws of Illusion” CD Review & Giveaway
I was so excited to have the opportunity to review “Laws of Illusion” on CD! I love Sarah McLachlan and this CD was no less than I expected. I really enjoy listening to it in the car and at home. I was so excited that this Grammy award winning, multi-platinum singer/songwriter released her new album, “Laws of Illusion” on Tuesday, June 15th. This marks Sarah’s first studio album of brand new material in 7 years! The album’s first single is “Loving You is Easy” – an amazing song!
Sarah has over 20 million career sales to date and every one of Sarah McLachlan’s studio and live albums has been certified gold, platinum, or multi-platinum by the RIAA. Be sure to check out Sarah performing on Jay Leno and performing on Dancing with the Stars.
You can see Sarah McLachlan in the all-female Lilith Fair Festival this summer! From 1997 through 1999, Lilith Fair was one of the highest grossing touring festivals in the world, with over 2 millions fans in attendance and raising over $10 million for national and local women’s charities.

She has a phenomonal voice.
I would love to win this because I am a huge fan of hers! I have seen her several times in concert and I think she is even more amazing live than on cd, if that’s even possible. Thanks!
I love her other albums but must say this one has blown them all out of the water. I have been a fan for a long time, however I didn’t think her last album was that great. Usually I only have one or 2 songs on a CD that I love and listen to repeatedly, but I can honestly say that I can listen to all these songs over and over again on this CD. I love the CD and the music is great and very sara McLachlan like. I am so glad that I got this CD and that she is doing some great music these days.
I want it because I love her music.
I am already a fan of Sarah McLachlan, her voice is terrific! So beautiful, and touching. I would love to win one of her CD’s! Love her music.
