More quotes by 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 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.
K. D. Lang
I never, my producer never, we never let myself just sing. We were always trying to get the perfect vocal.
K. D. Lang
I don't sing anything that hurts my voice.

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.

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
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
My public image is so low-key, but I get to travel the world and still have an audience and it's really amazing. I don't take that for granted.
K. D. Lang
My voice and the styles and genres I sing all express my appreciation for what I hear.
K. D. Lang
We're in a period where society seems very attracted to flash, and that seeps into people's musical taste.
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
The sky is an infinite movie to me. I never get tired of looking at what's happening up there.
K. D. Lang
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
Spend time reflecting on your emotional and physical existence and how that applies to the voice. You have to apply that wisdom and experience when you sing - it's what comes through.
K. D. Lang
To dance is human, to polka is divine.
