How's this for an extreme change from the last post. Going from the hard-edged adrenaline pumped American rock of Henry Rollins to the torch-song and twang of Canadian songstress k.d. lang.
Katherine Dawn Lang hails from Alberta, Canada. She began her career in country music there, forming a Patsy Cline tribute band called The Reclines. The Reclines quickly moved away from just being a cover band, and released their debut album, A Truly Western Experience, in 1984.
In the years since then, k.d. has gone solo, become a world-wide headliner, and taken on many different styles of music. Though still often categorized as a country act, these days she's more often singing torch songs, or jazz standards, or dance music.
Here's some of the songs that aren't on her albums:
(files expired)
k.d. lang - "Golden Slumbers / The End" (Beatles covers) From the soundtrack to the kids' film Happy Feet. (buy)
Madeleine Peyroux with k.d. lang - "River" (Joni Mitchell cover) From Madeleine's album Half the Perfect World. (buy)
k.d. lang - "Miss Chatelaine" (St. Tropez mix) A dancier version than the one on the album (from Ingénue) released as a single.
k.d. lang - "Surrender" The main theme from the James Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies.
Ann Wilson with k.d. lang - "Jackson" (Lieber/Wheeler cover) Ann is the lead singer of Heart. This is from her solo album, Hope & Glory. (buy)
k.d. lang - "So In Love" (Cole Porter cover) From the benefit album Red Hot + Blue (buy), which also has covers by The Pogues, Kirsty MacColl, Sinead O'Connor, Tom Waits. . .
Tony Bennett with k.d. lang - "Keep the Faith, Baby" k.d. recorded one full album with the legendary Tony Bennett, and has made guest appearances on 3 of his other albums. This is from Playing with My Friends. (buy)
Buy some k.d. lang albums:

Maybe someday she'll do a duet with Henry Rollins. That'd be sweet!

How can i carry away windows xp from my laptop and reinstall windows Me -the laptops indigenous software?
I suffer with recently bought a in use accustomed to laptop that is old. The mortal physically I had bought it from had installed windows xp on it, even though it at came with windows Me. I fall short of to expunge the windows xp because it runs slows on the laptop because it takes up more tribute than the windows Me would. Also I want to massacre windows xp because it is an illegal copy. So when I tried to run updates on it, windows would not initiate updates because the windows xp is not genuine.
