I was on Facebook tonight (shocking - I know) and I saw something pop up on the right side of my screen about Sarah McLachlan.
SIDE PAUSE / NOTE - I absolutely adore Sarah. I have been to the Lilith Fair twice. I have all her CDs. Her music brings back 2 very distinct and yet somehow oddly interrelated periods of my life, and while the memories of them are, well, confusing and sometimes somewhat consuming...they also make me smile. So she's kind of a big deal to me. Geez I'm a dork.
ANYWAY...I had to check it out. She's got a new album coming out in June, which I'm thrilled about. But it said she had a single out from it already. "One Dream". And off to YouTube I went, where I found it immediately. Turns out it was one of the theme songs for the Winter Olympics this year. I totally get that now that I've listened to it. The song isn't bad...but what the hell is up with the stupid video? Can you say WAY TOO MUCH SKATING?!?!?!

So thanks for attempting to tarnish a decent song with a shitty video, whomever it is that made the choice to put these particular clips to this song. I get it, I really do -but give me a fucking break.
Rant over. And out.
