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.
K. D. Lang
I think I was a singer before I came out of the womb. I also think that the way you live your life, and the choices you make parallel what doors open up for you.
K. D. Lang
I grew up in cattle country-that's why I became a vegetarian. Meat stinks, for the animals, the environment, and your health.
K. D. Lang
I sort of believe that my voice was preordained I'm a Buddhist who believes in reincarnation so I think that my voice is a few lifetimes old.
K. D. Lang
I don't believe that human beings are necessarily monogamous.
K. D. Lang
I think that the older I get and the more comfortable I get with myself, the more I realize that art is about relinquishing control of your emotions and being vulnerable and innocent.
K. D. Lang
The sky is an infinite movie to me. I never get tired of looking at what's happening up there.
K. D. Lang
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
I wanted to write songs that would play themselves on stage, songs that sweep you through their current.
K. D. Lang
I never get tired of exploring Americana or country music, and I always have a little bit of a crooner in me that never seems to go away.
K. D. Lang
I mean, I am fully aware of my influence and my responsibility to society in general representing the gay community. But in the same time, I don't represent the entire gay community because it's a vast, vast community, as one can imagine.
K. D. Lang
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.
K. D. Lang
I'm also alternative because of Canada - there's something romantic about being Canadian. We're a relatively unpopulated, somewhat civilized, and clean and resourceful country. I always push the fact that I'm Canadian.
K. D. Lang
Traveling renews you.
K. D. Lang
I think I have a better sense of my weaknesses - being self-important, selfish and having a big ego probably triggers all the other stuff. I can see myself more clearly.
K. D. Lang
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.
K. D. Lang
I certainly fall in love with artists. I think that's probably the aspiration of an artist, to make a listener empathize so deeply that they do fall in love with you.
K. D. Lang
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.
K. D. Lang
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.
K. D. Lang
