She always sang Roy Orbison’s, “Crying” whether she was promoting “Absolute Torch and Twang,” “Ingenue” or “Invincible Summer,” you just KNEW she’d bring the audience to their feet with THAT SONG & THAT VOICE!

Seriously, this was 1993, KD was no where as well known as she is now. He did say “We are very honored to have a special backup vocalist join us . . .” And no he wasn’t saying that she is JUST a backup vocalist but that is exactly what she is on this song. She probably was there to see all the other performers as well as perform herself and was invited to sit in on a song or two. Don’t really know as this was an Earth Day concert. Paul’s music has lasted through the decades and through two generations now and he is still amazing. There’s no reason to try to insult him over some imagined slight toward KD. They are both awesome at what they do. Wise saying I once heard, “Don’t take offense where offense is not intended”.

And for your information being a backup singer is a tremendous honour as my best friends happen to be KD Langs backup singers and are every bit as talented musicians as Kathy. I would urge you to do your homework.. as KD would want them to be as acknowledged as she is.. music is to be shared and her delightful work with these amazing 'backup' singing voices are heard everyday everywhere around the world especially on Constant Craving with backups by Sue who I sang backups for once upon a time in the 80's. I just hope the back up voices are getting the 'backup' royalties they all deserve.

I can not imagine any performer of contemporary music to ever be "insulted" to share a stage with Paul McCartney. As an obvious lover of music herself, I would imagine she was pinching herself to make certain she wasn't dreaming that she was given this opportunity. Of course her vocals could drown Paul's, but that wasn't the point. Even though '92 gave her the most commercial success of her career, along with recognition with a '93 Grammy, much of the "buying public" simply wasn't ready to accept K.D's sexuality. Any additional support and exposure she could gain would be helpful. There are still ignorant haters posting on here today. KD's "Hallelujah" performance at the 2010 Olympics was one of the greatest live performances of all time. I have adored Paul since I first laid eyes on him and heard him on the Ed Sullivan show. I was 5. These are two of the brightest stars of contemporary music. No need to diminish the shine of either one with any degree of shade.

Absolutely correct. She could also have blown Orbison off the stage, but sensibly chose not to. She chose instead with Orbison to do a masterful coloratura. I like to imagine that Orbison heard her output and said 'Get me this singer." It's only today that I learned she backed up McCarthy. I like to think that he'd never heard of her, but someone told him this is who he needed. Money present and future is involved. She would have made good bucks in both performances. She would have lost future bucks if she had tried to blow away either principal. Lang in my opinion is a phenomenal vocalist. I'd have to go back to opera to find someone with her abilities. It ain't easy being female in a male dominated world. You have to compromise and sometimes bury your talents.

Having k.d. lang as a backup singer is like having the SR-71 Blackbird as a shuttle plane to take you up to the cottage or a full-grown tiger as a pet kitty. LOL My favourite singer of all time is kd!! Deal with it!! kekekeke I still like Paul and Wings as little bit too. "No More Lonely Nights" is my favourite Wings song btw.

@robertdiepold22424 жыл бұрын
Is KD considered one of the greatest songwriters ever? Want to take a bet on who is the better musician KD or McCartney. How many records has KD sold in her lifetime in comparison to McCartney? Does KD sell out huge concerts around the world for decades? Ok, she has a better and more powerful voice but if you don't think McCartney had a great rock and roll voice in his day than I give up.

People who duet with kd often don't allow her to sing much of the song, since she would blow them out of the water and they know it.
@moe17moe3 жыл бұрын
ah get over it. Your argument is pathetic.On this song( his song) Paul is the vocalist, and KD sings back up, is all. If it was KD's concert and Paul would be invited on stage, he would sing back up, on her song.

If you look into backup singers so many could blow the doors off vocally of the front man or woman...That is not what singing is about..or music..Jon Anderson sang backup for Gowan.. Johnny Winter opened for George Thoroughgood... one of Tony Orlando's Dawn backup girls sang with the Stones..powerful voice..Muddy Waters and band played backup for Johnny Winter....

The petty arguing about her "blowing him off the stage", or about who is the better singer, are utterly misunderstanding the joy, the purpose, and the essence of being a singer or an artist. I hightly doubt that she was offended or cared about being introduced as a "backup" singer. She just came up to make a quick appearance and have some fun. I'm sure they both had fun doing the song, regardless of who was the "lead" or the "backup" or who is considered to have the better voice. Paul is no match for her vocals? So? What difference does that make? It was just a fun performance. Lang is also no match for Paul's songwriting catalog. Again, so? Meanwhile, after McCartney and lang have accomplished so much in their careers, and seem to be perfectly happy just doing one little impromptu song, you are arguing as though they are competing and are somehow jealous or mad at each other? The people wasting time arguing about that have lost the ability to just enjoy them. Instead, you are more obsessed with proving that your favored singer is the "better" one.. with proving you are "right".

Lol, you say his songwriting is better than hers. Have you ever listened and search through KD's stuff? She puts soul and life into every piece she writes and performs. K D Lang is way way better. Her skills equals Celine Dion and Lionel Richie.
@robertdiepold22424 жыл бұрын
@@TripleG69 Sure she is -lol. Try asking any music critic or performer who the better songwriter is and let me know if one person says Ms. Lang. Don't even include McCartney's work with the Beatles, just listen to solo albums that were Grammy nominated for Best Album of the Year. His latest album "Egypt Station" entered the charts at #1 and was critically acclaimed. You have ever right to your opinion but doubt too many people would agree. Let me ask you a favor. Do search on Linda Eder and listen to a few performances. Let me know what you think, will be interested in your opinion of her voice.
