PS.: great, great expectations for this new album, uhn!
I don't know what to expect, but I hope she took a few musical risks (in the melody and the lyrics). So much as changed in her career since the last album, I hope it's all for good!

I just saw this new this morning! We'll finally have a small glimpse of the next record. I wonder if she'll sing a new song or the ukulele one (as it's already on her website).

I really liked the last few albums, so I have a feeling that I'll like this one.

I do hope, however, that she took some risks like she used to around the Fumbling and Surfacing eras. It would be great to get "experimental Sarah" again.

RiverOfLove: I hope she will take risks too!

Miguel: that is an amazing find!! :shock:
It says that the album will be release May 6. I suppose we can rely on this date, though the recording process isn't over. It's great to know a little bit more about the history behind the record (even if it's a sad one):
Shine On, the singer's eighth studio album of her 26 year recording career, will be released on May 6 and is currently being recorded in Montreal and Vancouver. Helming is frequent collaborator Pierre Marchand with additional tracks by Bob Rock and Vincent Jones.

McLachlan describes the album: "This album is about moving through the second half of my life in a more mindful and meaningful way, recognizing that every day, every moment is precious and though we all have our issues and problems, our damages, we all have the ability to continue to learn, grow from our experiences, thrive and shine on. Many of the songs are inspired at least partially or wholly by my father's passing three years ago and the profound effect losing him had on me. I had to find my footing again without the anchor of his unconditional love."

It's sad I can't watch her Tonight Show performance :(
Do you think she will reveal the date of the release? I'm not sure about that...

Edit: about Verve Records... I just searched over the web and she signed with them at the beginning of 2013:

Yep! May 6, 2014 is the official release date :D

I guess she signed with Verve Records after she left Mick Management and signed with Feldman/Watchdog management
