k.d. lang

[redqueen]

Anyone else here love her voice? She's one of my favorite vocalists.

I need to see her live someday...

[GreenPartyVoter]

1. I love her song "Save Me".

[redqueen]

2. Oh yes...

I love that whole album... Miss Chatelaine is another of my favorites on there.

[auntAgonist]

3. I could listen to k.d. lang ALL day long

Hymns of the 49th Parallel is a great album. All of her albums are great :)

[redqueen]

4. She could sing me a menu and I'd be all

*swoooooon*

[TommyO]

24. "Hymns" is one of my favorites

I can listen to it over, and over, and over again!

[NV Whino]

5. Count me in

Very talented lady.

[old mark]

6. She did some great work with the late Roy Orbison a few years ago...nt

[eppur_se_muova]

21. She did "Crying" (solo) on the "By Request" album.

That was the first post-country CD of hers I listened to, after hearing that the two of them did that song at the Grammys.

7. First time I ever heard "Constant Craving" I practically

fell out of my shoes in stunned awe. You can sing like that or you can't. It's a talent you're given that cannot be learned.

Same comment applies to Frank Sinatra, Annie Haslam, Sandy Denny, Karen Carpenter and Tony Bennett. Ya can or ya can't. Few can.

[redqueen]

10. Yep...

had the same effect on me. :)

[TommyO]

25. Annie Haslam!!!!!

I got to see Renaissance several times before they broke up and I treasure those experiences.

[mac56]

8. k.d. lang rocks!

Not sure if you've heard her CD of duets with Tony Bennett. It's a must have.

My favorite by her, though, is "Shadowland."

[BurtWorm]

9. Yes!

Especially the work she did with Owen Bradley on Shadowland. :thumbsup: She has one of the world's greatest voices, I believe.

[auntAgonist]

11. k.d.'s version of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_NpxTWbovE

breathtaking.

[hippywife]

17. She does that song some proud!

I saw that last year sometime. Made me really disappointed that I missed her tour with Lyle Lovett.

:hi:

[ProfessorGAC]

26. She Tears That Tune Up

My wife and i saw her on a Leonard Cohen tribute not long ago. It was a different version than this one, and i think even better than the one you linked. The youtube version is very good, but she annihilated the song on the special we saw.

Unreal.

[MissMillie]

12. This one

I know it's not her song, but she brings a lot to her version

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zoXNBJRIFDE

"Helpless"

[applegrove]

13. Love her voice. Don't know much about her stuff. I should probably buy her early stuff.

[Shakespeare]

14. She has an AMAZING voice. Absolute Torch & Twang is my favorite album of hers.

I'd love to see her in concert, too.

[crim son]

15. I feel the same way. Plus, she's Canadian (like me).

I love her voice and I love her style. The song you posted is one of my favorites, but I also love The Valley:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDaumpzzGNs

I like it so well I'm sure I've posted it here before.

[zingaro]

16. Love Is Everything, my handsdown favorite. She is amazing. nt

[FloridaJudy]

18. Love her!

Absolutely haunting voice. I have all her stuff on my MP3 player.

[tigereye]

19. actually she is going to be here for our alt. radio stations 25th anniversary

I love her voice, but haven't seen her live. Should be a cool performance... I was impressed that they were able to book her.

[monmouth]

20. Her voice is like pure Irish crystal, not a flaw to be found..Love her..n/t

[astonamous]

22. Unbelievable voice...

I have a few of your songs downloaded from Rhapsody and listen now and then. I don't know why I don't think to put together a CD or two for the car. I am going to have to do that now!

[Quiet_Dem_Mom]

23. Love, love, love her. But, you haven't heard her sing until you've heard her live.

She has such a pure, beautiful voice and, IMO, I dont' think you completely hear it in her recorded songs (if that makes any sense). I'm not much of a concert goer, but I made my husband take me to kd's concert . . . twice. He's a kd-convert now. ;-)

Oh, and kd singing 'Hallelujah' live? Man, a lump in the throat and a tear right there.

[auntAgonist]

33. I want to see her in concert SO SO bad!

I won't ever be satisfied until I do.

[Resuscitated Ethics]

27. I love her voice

Saw two shows: Torch&Twang in Baltimore and I think the show in support of ...Cowgirls (?)in Richmond, the one where she nearly comically came out: "I'm a L, L, L, Lawrence Welk FAN!!" and the bubble machine started, fans go wild. She has the best pipes I've ever heard. Her shows are long and into it, similar to a Springsteen show for the energy of the show and the devotion of the fans. That was over twenty years ago, I know she is a HOLLER still.

GO SEE kd lang! http://www.kdlang.com/site.php?content=tour_dates

Get tickets!! Cross state lines!! GO

[S n o w b a l l]

31. Even Cowgirls get the Blues

:thumbsup:

When I saw her in LA, women were throwing their panties on the stage. And of course, she played it to the hilt and was hilarious. I'm absolutely in love with her.

[triguy46]

28. Her "Pullin back the reins" on SNL was just about as an emotional...

catharsis as you could experience. I just love it.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

29. One of the best voices of any non-classical singer in my lifetime

:-)

[S n o w b a l l]

30. My very favorite female vocalist..

Have every one of her albumns. Saw her in LA. Drag is also a great one you might pass by because you know the songs...but I've sat and listened to this one over and over some nights.

From Drag...
