Quote

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.

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
Image
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.

Image
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
Image
I just try to speak passionately about things I'm involved in and moved by.
K. D. Lang
Image

K. D. Lang
Image
My voice and the styles and genres I sing all express my appreciation for what I hear.

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 think masculinity is bravado against the mystery of the universe of women. It's just a fear of not knowing what women have that's so powerful. It's this shield they put up to try to get closer.

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.
