I almost forgot how beautiful K.D.s voice is. She's amazing
k.d. is just phenomenal. An awesome cover of a Roy Orbison song. Her voice is other worldly. 🔥💯 🔥
KD Lang started her career in Canada in mid 80s, she was at the time what was called Country Punk. She had a infinity for Pasty Cline and ended up being produced by Owen Bradley (Patsy Cline's producer) in 1988, for the album Shadowland. Roy and KD won a Grammy for a duet of this song Crying, which was Roy's hit from decades earlier. After Roy passed, she inherited the song. She performed it at the Roy Orbison Tribute concert (and received a 4 minutes standing ovation), and at the request of Roy's widow Barbara at the Songwriters Hall of Fame Induction. Her album Absolute Torch and Twang was one of her best. The songs Trail of Broken Hearts, Pullin' Back the Reins and Big Boned Gal (from the Album) solidified her at home in Canada. She was at the top of her game. She got more attention with the album Ingenue, which contained Constant Craving (Grammy for Pop Female) and MIss Chatelaine, her best know songs. She was not the most commercially successful artist, as at the time, records companies had no idea (and were afraid - especially the Country Market) how to market an openly gay female artist. Her covers of fellow Canadian Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah", Dionne Warwick's "Theme from Valley of Dolls," The Hollies "Air That I Breathe", first rate.
Yes, she had an affinity for Patsy Cline and in fact believed she was the reincarnation of her. KD is beyond superlatives...
Thanks so much for this information!!
Another point to note is that she recorded an album with Tony Bennett and sang a tribute for him when he passed this year (2023)
Early 80's even in the late 70's
No one delivers a song like KD.
The great Roy Orbison hand picked KD to sing this amazing song. Thank you for this reaction. Sometime, either for us or on your own, you need to check out their duet of this one. They were amazing together. RIP to "the big O."
Well said! Roy Orbison was legendary and he literally could have chosen ANYONE to sing a duet with him, and he chose this young Canuck from Alberta, and he could not have made a better selection!
Roy also performed it as a duet with k d lang in 1987 the year before his death. The two won a Grammy for the version which was recorded for a movie soundtrack.
K D LANG performed a perfect masterpiece by Leonard Cohen (Canadian song writer) at 2010 OLYMPICS ceremony. Singing "Hallelujah " It is online.
The definitive version, my humble opinion!
Absolutely one of her best performances of this song!
@yockfromoz For me her greatest performance of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" was at the 2005 Juno Awards in Winnipeg...the Canadian crowd was with her every beautiful note of the way...
Hallelujah sung by KD Lang will mesmerize you!
Chilling
Nobody can touch kd... her voice is one in a million and totally unique!
KD Lang is a gift from the gods. Sooo incredibly talented! This performance is a prime example of how she rarely, if ever sang the same song the same way twice; She'd create each performance in the moment, as if for the very first time. I saw her once in the mid-90's in downtown Vancouver, just walking along the sidewalk... as unassuming and "human" -looking as the next person. Displaying no outward sign of the power-house of talent and ability she really is.. Love this woman!
She covered Roy Orbison songs better than almost anyone
kd Lang has one of the most wonderful voices ever !!! - and her voice is even better as she got older -
Loved that you reacted to KD Lang. She is a Canadian treasure. Her voice is like butter. Phenomenal vocalist!
One of the best voices ever, and she's wonderful at conveying emotion!
Such a beautiful song...she has the perfect voice for it ❤
Thank you for this Tasha. This song always makes me emotional and KD really delivers on this. Her vocals are just unbelievable. 👏👏❤️
Not only beautiful, powerful as well. What a tribute to Roy Orbison she is when she sings his songs. Thanks for this reaction.
Thank you for this reaction! I would highly recommend her performance of Hallelujah at the Vancouver Olympics. ❤
Wow 🤩
Constant Craving is her biggest song and she won the Best Female Vocalist Grammy for it.
One of the greatest artist of all time to grace the stage, beautiful lady ❤️
She can take a persons breath away! Absolutely adore KD Lang! Great reaction!❤
kd lang is one of the greatest voices music has ever known. I've been lucky enough to see her do "crying" live in concert twice. both times that song alone got a standing ovation from the entire audience. both times. and one of the times was at radio city music hall in NYC. so that many people! we all stood right up. we knew we had just seen greatness! thanks for posting. great reaction!
WOW That is amazing! I knew I was witnessing greatness the very first time I saw her back in 1986 And I've always wanted to see her live and never got the chance to.
She's an amazing singer 💖
Karen Carpenter and KD Lang have sounds of their own and their voices are 1 of a kind. Thanks for appreciating our older music. She also was the background singer for Roy Oberson who made the song famous🫶🎶🎤🌟
Just from a musical perfection standpoint, can we talk about breath control? All the sound she can carry off on one breath there at the end! OMG!
She's simply one of the finest voices and finest performers in music. I suggest listening to 'Pullin' Back the Reins'.
KD is one of the most awesome vocalists of all time. Her delivery is always so genuine, gifted, amazing. The notes she hits just floor anyone. She doesn't even know how great she really is, but her fans do. Thank you Tasha for an honest reaction to a talent you were not familiar with, and wanted to learn more about her. I assure you, any song you listen to from KD will inspire you to listen to another. When she is interviewed, not singing, her nature shines through. A lovely person, kind, humble, and humorous.
We are so proud of our KD she without a doubt has the most beautiful voice I have ever heard in my 60yrs of living. This song and Hallelujah have always helped deal with sadness in mg life, it heals my heart. Thank you Katharine Dawn. You are amazing.
You are definitely right about the song being old. KD was under Roy Orbison's wing. Which this song was. The 2 together can make you cry. They both had old souls. She dearly loved his. They also both have dramatic voices. She can sing anything. Even the highbrow type music. Give this lady a country band or and orchestra, and you have a concert. Plus Canadian country does sound a little different as well as music from Keith Urban's Aussie. Shania, Gordon Lightfoot, Ann Murray etc. Its a little different but still country.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Her vocal perfection is used to convey the feelings of the song. She never shows off.
I subscribed because I like that you let her sing without interruption. Especially helpful because the song builds as it goes along. KD Lang is in a class all her own and she can pull those heartstrings like no other.
She also did a duet with the writer of this song Roy Orbison as well. Checkout his version, released in 1961 and compare it to hers, both done masterfully. Roy was one of my Mother's favorite performers and songwriters. So, I grewup with his Great music. RIP Roy.
That voice… absolutely beautiful.
You can’t go wrong with this song ,a Roy Orbison original,incredible, KD Lang is fabulous on this one ❤❤❤
Her voice is AMAZING
Her version of Cole Porters song So in Love brings me to tears, or Constant Craving,or Miss Chaterlane, Her version of Hallelujah is phenomenal. A immaculate voice powerful- pure - just wonderful
I luv her song “lock stock and teardrops”
This was a phenomenal performance. Shes in a league of her own. This gorgeous song is a cover originally done by Roy Orbison. They did a magnificent duet together.
It is impossible to pick my favorite KD Lang song because I love all of them! I wish she hadn’t stopped making music when she did.
Kd lang is awesome 👌
How could you ever get sick of KD singing that song. She nails it like it was made for her but us oldies know that "The Big O'' bought out the original version which is amazing but Roy would surely be proud of KD singing his song.... great reaction
You should consider reacting to "Constant Craving." Her biggest hit.
KD could flat out sang. 🙂
You need to listen to Roy Orbison. Do a duet with Katie Lang. Because crying was the song he recorded.
She does that with such ease and strength. Dang...
My gosh... no words. What talent. Wow!
She does not use capital letters in her name. But however she writes it, lang is one of the best singers in popular music. Her voice allows her to do whatever she wants, and her musicianship means that those choices are always correct.
Such a beautiful song 😢❤. She's brilliant.
She sang this for Roy, and you can tell. Amazing tribute.
Hi from Calgary, Alberta, Canada...KD was born in Edmonton about 3 hours north of here..she is the best singer! Thank you for reacting to her
One of the greatest ladies in the music industry 🙂
This girl could sing the dictionary and I would line up to hear her.
Me too!
Thanks for giving more accolades to kd (who so many other UA-camrs have discovered). I've been a fan since her first independent album with the Reclines called "A Truly Western Experience". Her voice is not only flawless, but can evoke the most powerful emotions at the same time. Do yourself a favour and check out her version of "The Air That I Breathe" if you want to be swept away!
I first saw KD at the University of Guelph in 1982 as a student. Amazing voice & tlaent. She sang with Roy Orbinson wen he was still alive and brings Roy's song to life every time she touches the mic... A long and blessed career.
This was so beautifully done. It evokes so much emotion. Your reaction was spot on🥰. Thank you, and I am new to your channel and love your reactions 👍🏻👍🏻!
I love her voice. Beautiful
She brings tears to my eyes with this song and others.
Her duet with Roy Orbison of this song is the greatest duet ever recorded in my opinion! You should pull it up next.
Constant Craving was a huge hit for her. I mean everything she does is great, but that song really showcases her vocal talent. Highly recommended!
Wonderful critique. You savored the entire song prior to speaking. Your exclamation at 2:55 was precious.
I love this performance, what’s even more amazing is that this was the last song she performed during this concert and her voice is perfect still ❤
I get shivers listening to her sing.
Truly one of the greatest to ever do it.
Bright Angel Tasha, thank you for all the hard work you put in to bring us such wonderful music and reactions. You are greatly appreciated.
I am listening from Alberta Canada the province that is home to Kd.
Stunning!
Looking good, love the hat, of course you always look great period.
Love your reactions!!
Back a month later, for another listen. Just as good...no, make that better, than the last time. One of the few singers who could really make this song work, and be a tribute to Roy Orbinson at the same time. Thanks, K.D. for the joy you have brought to the world.
Great reaction and well said ‘old soul’ comment was certainly right on. Like singing back in the day.
KD used to sing back up for Roy Orbison... my favorite song by her is Save Me, I could listen to that anytime, there's such feeling to it.......peace
I enjoyed watching that with you, and your insights. The vocal fry that she inserted at 1.20 hinted at her amazing vocal control. Kudos to you for investing in a decent set of cans to appreciate her amazing sounds.
PERFECTION. That's all. Roy approves...
She has been working since the 80s, is brilliant is many genres and should only be seen live.
One of the greatest voices of all time.
Ma'am, I just subscribed. 1). Thank you for not interrupting her performance. (Many say due to copyright issues they have to.) 2). I was already familiar with this performance, so I was watching you. I immediately saw how you were 'feeling' her voice. If you listen really closely, at the very end, she sings the last verse in one breath and holds it for 22 seconds.
If I may, I'd like to watch your reaction to "Glen Campbell, William Tell Overture", (with ovation). Much of the world knows of his talent as a singer, but few ever knew he was an in-demand studio musician in the beginning due to his extraordinary ability with the guitar. Thank you for your site.
This was originally a Roy Orbison song from 1961, in 1987 a movie came out called Hidding Out, Roy and KD reproduced this song as a duet for the movie track. Her cover of Leonard Cohen's song "Hallelujh" is up among the best.
"Constant Craving" is another song, and she did an incredible cover of "Hallelujah" (If I remember correctly she performed it at the opening ceremonies of the London Olympics a few years ago.) My favorite of her, which also shows her sense of humor is semi autobiographical and starts out with "She was a big-boned girl from Southern Alberta, you just couldn't call her small...."
You were right about the 50s and 60s feel of the song. It was written by Roy Orbison in 1961. K. D. Was a big fan of Orbison's and actually sang a duet of this song with him just before he died.
Proud to say she is Canadian ❤
Beautiful of Roy Orbison’s hit!! 😅
Emotional and livable ❤
K. D. Lang did a version of "I Never Promised You A Rose Garden", which is dynamite. It may have beent the first song she did that hit the big time. It is brilliant, she is brilliant, and she just got better and better as time went on.
Her 2010? performance at the Olympics ceremony of Hallelujah is amazing! You should hear and see that! You have a new sub.
her early band kd lang and the reclaims they called it torch and twang
I am a crazy old white man, who loves, loves, loves, kd lang. Please give her her due.
❤❤❤❤❤
Hallelujah. Constant Craving. Crying by Roy Orbison.
She looks beautiful here in my opinion but the voice and standard of performance and emotion - unparalleled.
Watching from North Dakota!!
Piaf, Orbison, Yes!
check our kd's 'barefoot'. it is beautiful and haunting and longing..and she howls like a wolf in it. she sang country in her early years. check out 'pullin' back the reins'.
Another Canadian Icon 😘🇨🇦
Hallelujah, she does this Leonard Cohen song and it will make you cry😢😮
She started out as a country singer. Next song by KD Lang " constant craving ".
Write Me In Care Of The Blues.
Katie grew up on a Huttery colony just south of where I lived.
K.D. Lang: Love Is Like A Cigarette
Listen to her live 2005 Juno Awards performance of "Hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen!
Constant Craving!
Swifties" take note...this IS how it's done, no overproduction, inane costumes, fluffy dance moves or a screaming audience .
All talent, supported by a live orchestra.
I've been a k.d. lang fan since before Taylor was born. The soulful sound of kd's voice is mesmerizing. However, I am a Taylor Swift fan as well. While kd's voice grabs me, Taylor's lyrics appeal to my soul too. I'm talking about her full catalog not just radio hits. She uses a live band too. TS isn't a belter but she can sing, write, produce, direct, play instruments. No need to compare them. They belong in their own space. kd is definitely in a sphere of her own full stop
It was sung in the 50s and 60s.
No one else in the worldmakes that song sound like that
