The setting sun casts a warm glow on festival-goers reflected in the "Lamp Beside the Golden Door" installation at the Coachella Music and Arts Festival in Indio on Saturday. It was the tip that felt entirely too good to be true: Lauryn Hill was planning on making a surprise appearance at Coachella late Saturday. Anyone who has followed the rapper-singer in the nearly two decades since she released her classic debut, "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill," knows her propensity for perfection often leads to a frustrating, exhaustive experience when it comes to catching her live. Sounding absolutely flawless, Hill tore through the key tracks from her days with the Fugees — "Ready Or Not" and "Killing Me Softly" — before delivering "Miseducation" standout "Lost Ones." It was a flash of brilliance that could be felt clear across the field.
