>I am so happy and relieved to be working again I went running this morning. An old pastime, long ignored. I took the loaded iPod with me and dialed it to k.d. lang. My god, what a voice. There are American Idol like singers and then there are those who are blessed. She is in the latter group. She can blow the roof off without even trying. I love listening to her.

Of course. She's Canadian. ;)

And you're right. She has a beautiful voice and great feeling for the music.
