Chantal Kreviazuk - Surrounded
This is from Chantal Kreviazuk's debut CD in 1996, called Under These Rocks and Stones
Jann Arden - Good Mother from "Living Under June"
Jann Arden's music in the 90's took up a lot of space in my heart and mind.
I saw her in concert five times, and met her in person
Still love her early stuff...This was her second CD, released in 1994, the year I first got clean and sober
Jann was such an awesome singer/songwriter. Here she teams with Jackson Browne in "Unloved"
Jann Arden "I Would Die For You" from 1her 993 debut CD, Time For Mercy
Thank you!Hey Magenta, thought you might like this song from the 90's.
I may have seen her at one of Sara McLachlan's Lilith Fair concerts I had one of her CDs also
The one you posted, with with Sunny Came Home Ah! Sara McLachlan. She sure mined her talent for gold (as of 2015, she had sold over 40 million albums worldwide.)
Here is Jann and Sara doing Jann's "I Would Die For You" (originally from Jann's debut CD).
I attended at least two Lilith Fairs in the 90's
Sarah performed the lyrics for this Delerium song, from their 1997 Karma CD.
Delerium's earlier music was much more industrial; they really became
much more well known and financially successful by adding a roster of
female vocalists, possibly mostly from the Nettwerk label. Wiki says this:
Delerium is a Canadian new-age ambient electronic musical duo that formed in 1987,
originally as a side project of the influential industrial music act Front Line Assembly.
Throughout the band’s history, their musical style has encompassed a broad range,
including dark ethereal ambient trance, voiceless industrial soundscapes, and
electronic pop music. They are best known for their worldwide hit "Silence."
I kind of wish more of Sarah's music went this direction...
I still have a lot of my Sarah McLachlan CDs I gave her Fumbling Towards Ecstasy CD (released in 1993) to quite a few family members for Christmas presents one year. One of my nephews loved it. He passed from this world in 2002...
^ ^ This is from her 1991 Solace CD, called Path of Thorns (Terms)

Sarah McLachlan, "Elsewhere" from Fumbling Toward Ecstasy
Another of my beloved Canadian female artists is Loreena McKennit
Loreena Isabel Irene McKennitt, CM OM is a Canadian musician,
composer, harpist, accordionist, and pianist who writes, records
and performs world music with Celtic and Middle Eastern themes.
McKennitt is known for her refined and clear dramatic soprano vocals.
She has sold more than 14 million records worldwide.
Her experiences in Spain and Morocco serve as the inspiration for 1994's The Mask and the Mirror.
This particular song is based on the poem "Dark Night of the Soul" by the Roman
Catholic mystic, priest, and Doctor of the Church St. John of the Cross, OCD.

Loreena McKennitt - The Two Trees
This song derives its lyrics from a poem of William Butler Yeats.
Loreena does that a lot
The Highway Man (famous poem by Alfred Noyes),Prospero's Speech (the final soliloquy and epilogue by Prospero in William Shakespeare's play The Tempest),
The Lady of Shalott (a lyrical ballad by the English poet Alfred Tennyson), to name a few.
I find her music quite moving, beautiful, soothing, transcendant.
Enigma - Return To Innocence
Released on 4 January 1994 as the lead single
from their second album, The Cross of Changes.
Great pick, Magenta. I also like this song by Enigma that was also released in the 90's. It has this mysterious, sensual feel to it.
