    Not just a standing ovation, but one from her peers. The Junos are Canada's music awards. She also performed it at the 2010 Vancouver winter Olympics and Leonard Cohen's induction into the song writer's hall of fame.

    “Crying” a tribute to Roy Orbison. She’s being inducted into the 2024 Canadian Country music Hall of Fame. Well deserved.

    I love Leonard Cohen, he was my favorite poet/songwriter, right up there with Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan and Harry Chapin. Their stories conveyed through song are soul touching and beautiful. K.D. does a great job on this one, her voice so powerful and clear. Cohen was also Canadian/American. He spent a lot of his time in the later part of his life in his beloved Montreal House. He was an outstanding writer and always had the best musicians and backup singers with him. He is a songwriter/musician's, musician. I am in total awe of his work. He performed late into his life doing tours that lasted a year and each performance lasting about 3 hours. He also had a very interesting life and unique outlook on life as well. I miss him so much.

    Leonard Cohen said this is her song now, after hearing her version. Check out her tribute to Roy Orbison Crying. (He asked her to sing with him when he re recorded his song.). She started our as a country singer. Her song Constant Craving is another song to react to.

    Welcome to the world of KD Lang. She started her singing career in the early 80's as a Country singer. She has a long list of hit songs and slowly her music has evolved to more than just country music. She does do some covers of other artist's, like this song.
    She performed this during the opening ceremony for the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver. I recommend checking that out, even just on your own. That one was even more powerful, in my opinion. ua-cam.com/video/tcOQSk_cMO0/v-deo.htmlsi=oe8OtJhbxAAxYcEu
    If you want other songs to check out by her, Miss Chatelaine, Summerfling, Constant Craving, Roy Orbison's Crying to name a few.
    She also semi-retired in 2019.

    I have always loved her interpretation and her vocals. When I first heard her sing this I was spellbound. Listening to it start just now, I got tingles at her first rise in the first verse. Her vocal capabilities are approached by only a few. Her ability to feel a song causes those tingles even though I have heard her do this song many times.

    I was so fortunate to see her in Melbourne Australia in a small venue in 2010/2011. She was absolutely unbelievable. She does her shows in bare feet and just walks around singing as though it’s nothing, meanwhile we are all totally amazed at what we are hearing, not a sound from the crowd, making sure not to miss one note from her. It was a wonderful experience for everyone there!!

    You wouldn't know it from this performance, but k.d. lang got her start as a performance artist. You should see and hear her and her band, the Reclines, transform country western songs into a new genre. With the help of Dave Edmunds of punk legends, Rockpile, they created "county cow punk", high energy polkas, "Angel with a Lariat", "Watch Your Step Polka", "Turn Me Round", and her remake of the Lynn Anderson country pop classic, "Rose Garden".

    Mr. Cohen was asked to sing this epic song at the 2010 Olympics (in Canada).. he declined and recommended they have kd sing it instead. They did so - you should check it out - it’s even better than this version! (IMO)!! Thank-you - great reaction to this beyond amazing artist.

    As a hearing impaired person I have always loved the way k.d. lang enunciates when singing. For many songs I need to listen a few times to catch the lyrics but hers I get on first listen. Karen Carpenter and Linda Ronstadt are others who enunciate nicely when singing. I still enjoy music if I can't understand but this is a bonus that adds to the enjoyment.

    For suggestions outside of KD Lang, I'd love to recommend another Canadian, who in my opinion is one of the best vocalists I've ever heard. She had a long drawn out legal battle with her former record label. She had a number of hit songs back in the 90's and finally released a new album last year.
    But to truly enjoy and appreciate her vocals, I'd suggest starting with her 90s hits. In no particular order: Dark Horse, Let it Rain, Fall From Grace, Everybody Has a Story, Beautiful Goodbye, If I Didn't Have You, I'll Be Okay, Love Lift Me, Trust Me, Birmingham, Why Don't You Love Me, Believe in You.

    kd lang used to live here in Vancouver. I saw here hanging out on the drive a few times. I saw her in 1984 at the Railway Club when she was just on the verge of becoming known. I'd heard an interview with her on CBC radio that morning, but seeing her was not intentional and was a very happy accident.

    k.d. lang (she always spells in lower case) has always done her own thing. She started out in Alberta, Canada as a country singer with a touch of torch singing mixed in. At that time her band was called k.d.lang and The Reclines. They started making it big in the late 1980's but Country Music would not accept her. She wasn't a typical country singer and what made it worse for the establishment was that she was gay, out and proud. She started doing a bit more "torch" singing and has several albums of standards including work with Tony Bennett and Roy Orbison. Orbison's song "Crying" was released by her as a cover and also a duet with him. She has always been underrated but has carved out a career where she never compromised to appeal to the masses and is now better known than ever. Check out some of her early work like "Turn Me 'Round" "Johnny Come Lately" and especially "Lady Chatelaine". Her first big break came with a couple of appearances on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson in the late 80's. She also sang at the closing ceremonies of the Calgary Olympics in 1988.

    Another Canadian you should listen to is Joni Mitchell. I’m one of a kind writer, singer and artist love for decades. She’s a little bit of everything and a little bit jazzy at times. Just a thought but since you’re Canadian, I think you’d appreciate her most people do.
