Hearing that I was planning to attend a k.d. lang concert, a coworker blurted out "She's a lesbian! I'd never listen to a lesbian." Proof that bigots are punished; she's missing out on one of the greatest voices of all time.

This reminds me of an incident involving my late father. I came home one day to find him walking through the house singing "Karma Chameleon" and asked if he'd ever seen Boy George, wondering about his Southern Baptist reaction to George. He shrugged and said, "I like the song. That's all that I care about."

The thing is about k.d. lang, I do believe that she naturally has perfect pitch; however, she doesn't do what so many with it do which is let it make their singing soulless. lang can pull every last emotion out of a song and still be perfect.

Nor does she let vocal gymnastics become the focus of a song. Just amazing. Someone with a great voice, emotional power and good musical taste.
