At the front of the stage, her Troubador harp rested beneath the soft house lights, a stately vessel of potential energy needing only the touch of her nimble fingers to unleash its sorcery.

McKennitt did not just sing and talk of these tragedies; she literally put the audience on the docks of Quebec City as the ships full of starving Irish immigrants rolled in. Orphans, sickly and drawn, scattered among the vacant stares of adults struck with cholera

Leaving the venue, the fans carried with them into the brisk Autumn air a sheen of magic, their spirits limned in the nameless grace of Loreena McKennitt. Many will hold their breath until she next returns to suffuse the human experience with her brand of eclectic sonic mastery.
National Anthem (and Lana) are so 2012. What's important is Halsey took her song and made it a Hot 100 HIT
Who actually cares about a #71 hit on Hot100, like really? Halsey will never be successful or global as Lana. Congrats to her top71 hit but It probably hasn't outsold any Lana single, worldwide speaking.
