| | The History of Rock Music. KD Lang: biography, discography, reviews, links |
| | In the late 1980s, Kathryn Dawn Lang, raised in rural Canada, became one of the most original voices in the history of country music. | | | Lang wisely abandoned the sterile world of country music with Ingenue (1992), that includes some of her most famous songs: Save Me, Constant Craving, Miss Chatelaine. | | | A Wonderful World (Columbia, 2002), a collaboration with old easy-listening star Tony Bennett, is a tribute to the songs of jazz legend Louis Armstrong. |

| | And it is to Young, whom lang turned for her recently released album of songs from, and sometimes about, Canada, called Hymns of the 49th Parallel. | | | Coincidentally or with synchronicity, lang's album has appeared at a time, at least in Australia, where Canada and Canadians loom larger than ever. | | | The sentiment is similar to that expressed once by another Canadian singer and songwriter who relocated to the US in his 20s, Neil Young: "My heart is still in Canada, but I don't have to physically be here to be a Canadian." |

| | KD. Lang All You Can Eat, Drag, invincible summer by A. Colin Flood |
| | This K.D. Lang released her first major label album in 1987, causing considerable consternation in the world of country music traditions with "vaguely campy approach, androgynous appearance, and edgy, rock-inflected music". | | | The new sound of the second K.D. Lang is free of nasal twang, banjos, slide guitars and childish rhythms. | | | However in the end, it is only the music that matters, only the music that we enjoy; in the end, what K.D. Lang delivers is her memorable voice, fine imagery and emotional responses. |

| | KD Lang Reviews |
| | lang's 1988 album is a meticulously crafted work, her bid for mainstream country acceptance, and an homage to her idol Patsy Cline. | | | The album on which she officially gave up on Nashville and began singing torchy, adult-contemporary pop, Ingenue has been referred to by lang as her "stalker" album for its emphasis on songs about desire and obsession. | | | Both a commercial (the album went gold) and artistic success, Shadowland ranks as one of the best country records of the 1980s. |
