K D LANG Miss Chatelaine Music Reaction - Song for paradise settings and remarkable video!

[@janleonard3101]

I love how k.d. showed everyone she wasn't glamorous only because she didn't want to be, not that she couldn't be.

[@katherinebosse5706]

She is so very tongue-in-cheek and so incomparable! I adore her..her voice is not of this world. I saw her the first time in northern Alberta, when she was singing and dancing around in wedding dresses and cowboy boots, singing rock-a-Billy..she was/is remarkable. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥🇨🇦

[@TheWilsontm]

Completely agree! A lot of people miss the tongue in cheek part of this! Have seen her at least 4-5 times in Portland . She’s incredible! ❤

[@lizturner267]

“Miss Chatelaine” was Canada's most iconic fashion magazine. (Our Vogue if you will). Every year a Canadian woman was named Miss Chatelaine as their cover girl and that year she was named Miss Chatelaine. We Canadians “got it” but chuckled at the confusion it brought elsewhere 😊 k.d. gave a wink to her Canadian audience here 😉 only k.d. could cause controversy by being glam, I adore her irony here but her vocals surpass everything! Love your thoughts Harri!

[@ellesamuse]

Oh how much sense it all makes now!. I have been singing this song since 1993 and never knew this.

[@ellesamuse]

My mom once said she loved k.d.'s voice, but couldn't get over her androgynous appearance. I said, "Oh jeez, Mom. Her voice is a ray of sunshine dipped in honey, why on Earth does it matter what she is wearing."

[@stevenyocom9954]

Now I understand! Thanks for sharing!

[@jameswolfden]

Chatelaine is major woman's magazine in Canada. It named k.d. lang as woman of the year in 1988. I think this song is also a little poke at being a cover model.

[@ychaps]

I have seen her in person many times and she is without a doubt one of the most sensual human beings you will ever watch perform. The voice goes without saying but her personality matches it...couldn't love her more.

[@pncombies]

What song can't KD Lang knock out of the park? The talented Ms. Lang demonstrates her versatility here. Singing in front of an orchestra or fronting a rock band, she can do it all. Great selection, Cynthia. Thanks to you and Harri.

[@Cynthia...]

Thank you Neal. She is just so good and can do anything.

[@Skeeter123]

Im a huge k d Lang fan...she has an awesome voice! ❤

[@mulatacatachufla]

She has a quite beautiful rendition for the 1932 Cole Porter's song. "So in love"

[@TheWilsontm]

I have seen this amazing women perform 4-5 times , and will continue to see her every chance I get! She has an n incredible voice and a wonderful sense of humor! Any KD Lang song is amazing! Try sexuality, summer fling, crying, air that I Breath, helpless and of course hallelujah! All winners! Thanks Harri! ❤️

[@theodorabruin4601]

Wonderful song! I love music that sounds from the 40s.

[@etude79]

I first heard of k.d. lang when 'Constant Craving' was playing heavily on radio; the song had that strings intro that you would hear in a French bistro-type of atmosphere along with the guitars until you hear her smooth, torchy voice. I was curious to know more about her and thought she is probably a new artist. This was in 1992 before social media or the internet. As luck would have it, my 2nd period Biology teacher, a big black man who was very strict had a CD of k.d. lang's "Shadowland" album, a record that was released in 1988. It was my curiosity that led my teacher to open up to me as an equal and educated me on k.d. lang's early music career as a country-western artist before "Constant Craving". With that tidbit of info, I went to the record store one weekend and was lucky enough to find her other albums in the country/western section. Albums like "Angel with the Lariat", "Absolute Torch and Twang" and of course, "Shadowland". I only had enough money to buy either a cassette or a CD at the time, so I purchased INGENUE. I rushed home to listen to it and fell in love with Miss Chatelaine. As the months passed and I was able to save up enough money from allowance, little by little I started to buy her previous album releases on cassette and that's when I became a fan. Even without social media or the internet, the excitement of going to a record store and discovering something through word of mouth or a suggestion from a store employee; it's an experience in itself. I listened to this album recently and it really stood the test of time.

[@stellarsjay1773]

She never takes herself too seriously. Her music, her audience? Yep. But she loves to have fun, too. This song has always been a crowd favourite.

[@deerkeeper]

Those daisy earrings in the tub!!!! Oh yeah!

[@LakeLouise1000]

That was great !

[@jolenewitzel7919]

She has such a magnificent voice.

[@JohnPaul-hm2ys]

I absolutely love hearing this. It brings back great memories from the early days with me first and only true love. We both loved Kd Lang. (RIP Bob, the love is still in my heart all these years later.)

[@incensejunkie7516]

I love this song Harri...and anything by kd, to be honest. Chatelaine is - or was? I don't know if it's still around, I never check the magazine racks anymore - a Canadian women's magazine. Fashion, health/fitness, articles, recipes, etc. They would have a woman of the year vote every year, and kd won it.

[@brucedillinger9448]

I had the immense pleasure of seeing k.d. back in the early 90's. Paramount Theatre Oakland CA. She performed this and had the audience in her hands. Incredible show. 1st time seeing her live but not my last. ✌

[@pamalaalford1081]

She has one of the most beautiful voices ever. It is fun seeing her all glamorous ... I wonder if she liked it. She always seemed like she didn't want to bother with all that. It was very good and she was beautiful. Thank you for posting. God bless you

[@laurabrevitz3944]

Actors act, but she sure seemed to be having a good time.

[@BC-ui9yt]

If you've never heard "Constant Craving" from this album, it's a piece of perfection.

[@Triggerhippie70]

MY FAVORITE SONG FROM KD!

[@knitterscheidt]

a foreshadow to her duets with tony, a real retro torch song delivered with a wink wink, gorgeous voice, like silk and taffeta, the lady's got talent.

[@pblaschke]

Pure silk... Her voice is God like.

[@Mnew-j2s]

I love how she shows she's so versatile. Her voice is amazing a always

[@Janadu]

Like Karen Carpenter, KD's voice is totally unique. What they share is the range and the effortless way they hit the high and low notes. I do love this song too. If I'm having a bad day, it's one of my go-to songs to get me out of the doldrums.

[@tommuscatello5999]

Done so well. Great a voice!!!!

[@ohfour-seven6228]

Wonderful song, but I never saw the video, thanks for bringing it to my attention. This album, Ingenue, is incredible. The sonics and engineering rival anything Steely Dan has done, and that's high praise indeed. Again, thanks for the reaction!

[@kmwwrench]

I love this song. And what a fun video. I hadn't seen it before.

[@diane-]

k.d. is such a great performer and I loved her at the grammy's with a wedding dress and cowboy boots. Thanks Cynthia 💞 and Harri.

[@fjdoucet1465]

The costume is beautiful, but on her it looks almost like drag! ❤

[@Imadrummin]

Such an elegant video in every way. Thank you Cynthia for this beautiful pick. I knew Harri would enjoy it. 👍👍👍

[@Cynthia...]

Thank you Imadrummin. You encouraged me to submit it. ✌

[@unndunn1]

I’ve seen her in concert several times and she’s always amazing. I also her with Tony Bennett. Amazing.

[@Maggy47]

I can never get enough of kds music i love her unusual voice awesome person beautiful inside and out ❤

[@marybaillie8907]

Such a great song and video, with KD's beautiful vocals. Made after she was named Woman of the Year, by Canadian Magazine, Chatelaine, poking some Canadian humor at the award. So different but equally as amazing as we have come to expect from KD. The vocals and accompaniment make for a big winner. Watch her early video of " Hanky Panky" , as we were introduced to her. So talented. ❤ Wonderful KD. Great reaction Harri. Thanks Harri and Cynthia. 👏👏 Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

[@Cynthia...]

Glad you liked it Mary. ❤

[@marybaillie8907]

Such a great tune Cynthia. 🤗❤️

[@debraharrison8676]

Great turn of phrase, Harri, "Diamonds in my ears" Thanks for your smart, wise reviews...

[@debraharrison8676]

This is a new look for KD. She is lively! Her voice is amazing as well! Love her. Thanks for bringing this...

[@legendtwo]

I have never seen K.D. Lang look like that. Amazing. I approve!

[@marieross6231]

Kd broke all the rules in the most magnificent way. I absolutely adore her voice, I don't think there is anything she can't sing and make her own! Well maybe 'I left my heart in San Francisco ' But I think she would do Tony Bennet more than fine, maybe different but with as much love.

[@andrebarberis3244]

This song is so beautiful it just brings love in your heart. What a beautiful lady and an equally beautiful voice.

[@heydayma10513]

KD claimed up!💕

[@stevencantrellzenroom7383]

So good…how about Western Stars please

[@debbiechang5781]

I absolutely love this amazing woman’s voice. She must have had a great time doing this. Thanks for requesting this Cynthia. Nice insights from Harri. 🌺✌️

[@Cynthia...]

You are welcome Debbie, such a talented singer.

[@GaryRoss-t7b]

I love her singing the song Love is Everything.

[@heydayma10513]

Dress aUp.Nice fun!😍💖💪

[@denniss5275]

My favorite is the soundtrack she did for Even Cowgirls Get the Blues❤

[@willmacintyre649]

Thank you Harri!!! You're the best!

[@Robomatic]

Chatelaine was(is?) a Canadian lifestyle magazine that was a staple for housewives. Fashion, recipes etc. so she used it as reference for this song

[@brucemckay1611]

Thanks for doing KD again. She is another one of those singers who make everything sound so effortless. I have always loved her

[@brucemckay1611]

Is it in the Canadian water that does this with women. I know it never worked on me. On a good day I can maybe do a duet with Kermit the Frog 🐸

[@brucemckay1611]

Could also maybe that song the North Korean dictator does in Team America >> “I’m so Lonely “

[@brucemckay1611]

Whatever you do, don’t show any more clips from this movie. I have no clue how hard it is to be nailed with an “R” rating on a show like this. But I really don’t want to have to try it 😂😂😇😇😇🐸

[@davebzen795]

Cynthia - Okay, I had to look up this submission to find out how this adventure by one of my favorite female vocalists came to be. This glamorous exquisite production of KD is a follow-up to Constant Craving and is a satire on The Lawrence Welk Show. This was absolutely a delight to enjoy watching and a top-tier submission so far this year. Harri, your reaction was similar to mine. Where did this come from? How come I (we) have never seen this before? Bravo for this A+ submission.

[@Cynthia...]

Aww thank you Dave. It is on her Ingenue CD so until failry recently, I had never seen the video of it, just played the CD. She is truly amazing. Thanks again.

[@flamencoprof]

Thanks to earlier commenters for explaining what I initially thought was a very strange video. I have this CD, but got it late, tracking back from All You Can Eat. I never saw this at the time. The weird thing is, this video makes me see it as a drag act, given her usual image. Let's hear it for the Big Boned Gal.

[@catherineday951]

Another early song I love is Pullin Back the Reins... I'm not a country fan but her voice is awesome...as always.

[@joeeckert5128]

Nice song. Nice change of pace. But changing the subject, You need to check out The Crazy World of Arthur Brown doing Fire live.

[@kenrobins6262]

As others said, the entire Ingénue album is great.

[@terryedwards171]

You hear some Bosa Nova in the back.

[@pianoman551000]

The French Riveria of the 1950s come to mind!!

[@MrDalebenberger]

This video is such a departure for Kathryn Dawn Lang. You don’t usually see her as a gorgeous girly girl. She looks awesome and her voice is on3 of the best ever recorded . And she’s Canadian from Alberta. Chatelaine is a Canadian woman’s magazine.

[@brucemckay1611]

Another great reaction. I actually have one for you. I know you are a sucker for stuff like this.

[@brucemckay1611]

Chris de Burgh. “The Words I Love You” the collaboration with that Iranian group. Aryan Band I think? It’s gorgeous

[@hereitisagain4880]

That was K.D's first big hit.eh?

[@denniscain5738]

She's just poking fun Try Hallelujah

[@Grithron2]

The trouble with this song is those three-note phrases starting on the four - to any Brit they sound uncomfortably similar to Postman Pat! (At least she has the excuse of being Canadian - Depeche Mode fell into the same trap in some song or other and are still wiping egg off their faces)

[@stacym31]

I think this is a Basanova?

[@p.l.1986]

This song is sparse on lyrics and very corny. She looks great and sounds great.
