As a songwriter you have an umbilical cord to the song and it's hard to expand on your understanding of the lyrics. Whereas when you cover a song you can create your own reason why you're attached to it.

It's just a theory really, but I have always thought that your physical surroundings can shape your voice and personality.
K. D. Lang
Image
I never, my producer never, we never let myself just sing. We were always trying to get the perfect vocal.
K. D. Lang
Image
There are days when I still want to be able to do what I want when I want, but there's also something wonderful about being secure.

Life is so impermanent that it's not about somebody else or things around me, it's about knowing you are completely alone in this world and being content inside.

I think I fall into a lot of cracks in terms of I'm too something. I'm too this, I'm too that. And my music has never really had a home. I've been this floating alternative. I'm too mainstream for alternative. I'm too alternative for mainstream. And I'm just kind of wandering.

I think I don't sing as hard as I used to sing. I used to kind of hit the accelerator a lot back in my youth, but now it's just being able to control it, and not work it so hard and use more of an emotional or sub textual kind of approach to singing.

I just try to speak passionately about things I'm involved in and moved by.
K. D. Lang
Image
I think I have allowed my voice to experiment with the different genres. And I think that I have just really enjoyed the journey of getting to know my voice and seeing what it's capable of, what it's not capable of.

There needn't be a distinction between your life and your music.
K. D. Lang
Image
I don't consider my homosexuality a political thing. I consider it a sexual and spiritual thing. I only started going to political rallies to meet women.
K. D. Lang
Image
I just try to live a really simple, natural life, because obviously, life has an impact on your voice.
K. D. Lang
Image
When women make their image about youth and sexuality, and not about intellect, that's kind of a dead-end road. So I think it's a combination of self-entrapment and entrapment by society.

We all love animals. Why do we call some 'pets' and others 'dinner?'

If you knew how meat was made, youd probably lose your lunch.

The older I get, the more I embrace who I am.

I like the music. I don't like the business. I get very tired of the travel and moving, constantly moving. But the hour-and-a-half that I'm making music, I'm one of the happiest people on earth.

I believe in monogamy if that's what a couple decides upon together, but it all depends on the personal history and culture of the two involved.
K. D. Lang
Image
I don't believe that human beings are necessarily monogamous.

Spirituality comes from questioning everything but at the same time accepting everything. You can even be spiritual watching TV. When the ad comes on and says, Don't hate me because I am beautiful, question that.
