touches you deeply and has the most meaning for you, what would be your choice for the ultimate, best of k.d. lang album?

Not easy! In fact, almost impossible. We can only choose one song, huh? I suppose one way to short-list it would be to choose one of the two songs that reduced me to tears watching her perform them live. Love's Great Ocean
and The Valley.............but I could change my mind. Busy Being Blue is one gutsy song or Curious Soul Astray. Then there is her most original and clever
lyric, Nowhere To Stand but how could one not have Big Boned Girl and what about Season of Hollow Soul and then there is............. |

If I had to choose just one, it would have to be Till the Heart Caves In, tied with Tears Don't Care Who Cries Them....well, I guess that's two, but
they turn me to jelly every time.

Ahem! Shelley the last time you posed a question like this was when you asked 'if you could rename kennedyflairs what would it be' then we moved to
Yuku..........do you know something we don't perchance .........or is it just my wishful thinking.
To answer the question though, my song choice would be 'Barefoot',...................... followed closely by 'So In Love'. ![]() ![]()
Hee Haw!! from Caz x

caz, were you rummaging through my brain?
if so, poor you! as i was mulling kf's challenge, which i had initially thought was just too impossible a task, but later on simply could not resist, the first song which came to me was 'barefoot'. so i played it. and then i had a vision of the sepia video in which kd does laundry. but for the life of me i could not get the song! i even googled 'kd lang laundry vid'. hah! no good, needless to say. and then, when i was not trying to catch it, it landed, phrase by phrase, until i had 'so in love'. and i would have stopped there and my post would have read like caz's post ... ... except that as i scrolled through a list of her songs, out jumped 'lock, stock and teardrops'. and that's where the dart landed. but hey -- it could have been 'til the heart caves in' (yesss!) or 'crying' or ... aw, kf, no fair! |

Ok-I'll let you have a few more goes, you can have more than one!
I think So in Love is the one for me (the first k.d. song I heard) but surely Miss Chatelaine has to be there for it's sheer unbridled happiness! |

I bet you that Miss Chatelaine would not come top of many fans' lists despite it being, "the melody of her hit". |
