    No one should ever be allowed to cover a Roy Orbison song. Except KD Lang. She is allowed to sing any song, any time. Always.

    She's one of the most underrated singers of our time. K.D. knows exactly when to belt those notes and when to hold back. That's a lesson a lot of female over singers need to learn. I can 100% believe her heart is breaking.

    KD was drawn to the great Pasty Cline, she felt that they had a cosmic connection ("Pasty spoke to me spiritually. This deep, deep connection"). She was the reason KD went into country music. In 1988, KD recorded the album Shadowland, with Patsy's iconic producer Owen Bradley. The album is wonderful, full of great tracks. KD also is on youtube performing Pasty's "3 Cigarettes in an Ashtray", it's awesome.

Lang's hits: "The Consequences of Falling" and "Constant Craving".

    I remember when KD first came on the country scene. She definitely was a powerhouse voice, one of a kind. She didn't actually know how to "fit" into the genre so she would wear hillybilly skirts and clothes that just weren't her. It was tough for her and I think she sort of went her own way. I didn't see her much. HOWEVER, she ALWAYS released wonderful covers of some of the greats - Roy, Patsy and others. Man can this girl sing. LOVE LOVE LOVE her voice.

    KD was on the charts when I was in my teens. She was sold as a country/folk artist. I was into hard rock and metal, heard her on the radio, tuned her out for the most. A friend sent me this a couple of years ago, I had no idea the woman could sing, let alone give me chills. Her rendition of Hallehluya at the Vancouver Olympics is incredible. She hasn't got much range, but to get on stage and sing with that confidence and power... Full respect.

Her discography is as varied as any musical performer can be. She is the best female vocalist in my lifetime. Her range; her power; her vibrato; her tone - it's all perfection. I hope you get to listen and react to more of her songs (Trail of Broken Tears just to name one). I really enjoyed watching you two watch and listen to her version of Crying.

    K.D. Lang has a deep well of powerhouse music. Take a dive in, you’ll be glad! Been a fan of hers since her appearance on Johnny Carson show. My perception of her music has changed as I’ve gotten older. Just gets better!
