Known for her stellar voice and her androgynous image, k.d. lang is a Canadian singer-songwriter, probably best known for the hit "Constant Craving". Though her career started out singing country music as part of The Reclines, she developed such popularity as a singer that she was picked up for her own solo career, famously duetting with Roy Orbison on "Crying". k.d.'s distinctive voice is a relatively deep and somewhat androgynous one, though not a particularly low one in terms of placement. Her vocal phrasing is outstandingly smooth and pure, particularly in her warm lower register, though her upper chest voice and seldom-showcased quasi-operatic head voice are also impressive. Her tone as soft as velvet, k.d. is a singer who could sing anything and make it sound wonderful.
{A Few Examples of Her Voice}
The best Bond song to not officially be a Bond song.
Lovely vibrato and emotion.
