Like Sarah McLachlan's multi-platinum-selling Mirrorball from 1999, Afterglow Live relies on the breathy Canadian's fluid and faultless vocals and performances -- by McLachlan and band alike -- that are so spot-on that they may well have been cut in the studio. The recording follows the singer through her summer tour, a jaunt that ended up in her hometown of Vancouver -- the 15 tracks are culled from a pair of shows in Toronto. While heavy on material from the 2003 release that gives the record its name, McLachlan classics like "Building a Mystery" and "Sweet Surrender" sound as reliable as ever. But the real meat here is the accompanying 23-track DVD, featuring behind-the-scenes footage, live performances, and videos, specifically director Sophie Muller's confrontational short for "World on Fire," which features McLachlan performing over displays that compare the costs of video production with those of food and medical supplies. ~ James Christopher Monger, All Music Guide

Outstanding - the ONLY Music Experience greater than listening to Ms. Sarah McLachlan's Performances is to Watch AND Listen to her seamless presentations. She puts the ART in Artist IMHO. Wishing Ms. McLachlan the Best and happily awaiting the next incarnation of her Talent. Take Care & Be Safe - BK Silva
As a 59 year-old, oftentimes a bit slow on the uptake from a technological standpoint...but I "found" Pandora 48 hours ago and since then, living in another realm.
This song, Angel was playing when my dog died. I know tha this sounds pretty cornie but I somehow felt like this song helped me through a very sad time. Whenever I hear this song now, I think how sweet my best friend was and how wonderful heaven must be for him now......
