The new Advocate has a great interview with (212) fave K.D. Lang, who is making the rounds to promote her new disc, "Watershed," her first collection of original material since 2000's "Invincible Summer."
In the article ("Where Have You Been, K.D.?") she discusses how her sexuality ended up overshadowing her music for many years (I'm the first to admit I worshiped her first three albums and then lost interest around the time the "Even the Cowgirls Get the Blues" soundtrack came out). But what a collection of music those first three albums is, was and will always be. Check out this homemade tribute set (above) to the classic "Miss Chatelaine," from her 1992 crossover hit, "Ingenue," and you'll see (remember) what I'm talking about. And if that's not enough for you, relive the magic of her duet of "Crying" with Roy Orbison from 1987's Jon Cryer vehicle(!), "Hiding Out."

Couldn't agree more with you about k.d. lang. The atmosphere that voice carries! Pure quality. I've always liked her looks and style too. The most elegant little thing in that manly, all-in-black style.
Her "Hymns of the 49th Parallel" was a FABULOUS album...even if it wasn't original material.
