Unreal. This can't be real! NO ONE can NOT have a warm up, and then just go out and sing like this..... like warm, smooth butter. This is either faked (not!), or else she is divinely gifted, and/or an artistic genius. Thanks for posting this performance for the world to see.
@twinstar9 I saw her a number of times years ago when she was playing in bars with her band the Reclines. Her talent was always undeniable. You are completely right, she gives everything to the performance. Her voice and her approach to songs has improved iover the years. Her voice gives me shivers too.
She made my heart drop with this. It's already such a touching, sad song but K.D. brings her fluid buttery voice to it and I just melt inside. One of my favorite voices.
Every time I watch this, I'm still blown away by the performance...no warm-up, no rehearsal, just pick up the mike and *wham*...she puts such emotion into this gorgeous song...I usually don't care for covers, but, this is simply amazing.
Absolutely wonderful. She always looks fantastic but here she looks amazing. Beautiful and very, very sexy and I can't believe she sang that like she did without a voice warm-up. Amazing woman.
hi all, glad your enjoying the clip ;) Aussies have once again had the pleasure of seeing & hearing Kd perform live on TV again this year, do a search for 'kd lang live Gordon st' and you will find her amazing performances from Aussie chat/variety show 'Adam Hills live in Gordon Street Tonight'.
@TheBlueguitar333 LOL I think she is just super casual...she goes barefoot while wearing dresses and so on..she may be eccentric, but the most beautiful voice!!
What a professional performer k.d. is!!! Notice the way, having never performed with this band before, she indicates to them exactly what she wants with just a discreet lowering of her hand behind her back. She is the ultimate--then and now.
Also, looks like she's been enjoying the California sunshine here--her skin has a beautiful golden glow!!! Could that ability to tan have to do with her Sioux blood??!!
thanks very much for taking the time to share this. i've never seen this before and enjoyed it. she sounded as good as if she might have sung that song before and did it more than justice for sure and fun.
no problem, i thought she was really in here prime here but then i saw the Winter Olympics performance and was blown away, she just gets better & better
what a voice :)
