By far the most underrated singer
Spectacular performer, insane voice like no other. Love her❤
I remember when this was on TV. Her scream startled me. But she gained a new fan. Great voice. Great music.
The audience was in the presence of greatness!
Christ, her range is amazing. The voice - flawless.
I've never heard a more beautiful female voice by a popular singer
One of the greatest performance artists ever! No one tells a story like kd!
I had heard Joanie Sommers' "Johnny Get Angry" for the first time on an oldies station and was startled by its regressive message. I secretly loved it regardless, but I assumed no woman would want to revive it during more enlightened times. When I saw k.d. lang perform it on "Saturday Night Live," I was thrilled that she used it to make a statement that was relevant despite the anachronistic nature of the song. And yes, her vocal is remarkable!
What was the "statement"?
@@jn8ive60 It's a song about a man dominating a woman, and therefore it's not a stretch that it could extend into an abusive relationship as k.d. lang was demonstrating.
OMG what timing and stage presence and amazing voice talent and superb instrument of voice. She is the whole package and real deal ...amazing.
I saw her in Charlotte NC during this tour and we got to meet her after the show. Not only did she talk to us (we were on the third row) during the show, she remembered us after the show and was very appreciative that we hung around to meet her afterward and nobody else did. I've been crazy about her since 1984, when I read a review of her album in RS, bought it and wore it out. Her voice is hypnotic!
kd lang is a treasure and we don’t deserve her
One of the best performances in history. Bravo!
I absolutely love this version of the song. KD is an amazing vocalist.
WOW, k.d. never ceases to amaze me. Spectacular!!!
Unbelievable what she can do to a song! Amazing singer. Love her soooo much!
She embodies that song in ways that are engaging and disturbing, a Real Artist. Incredible singer too.
The energy k.d.lang and the reclines had at this place and time OMG. I want to freeze it in time forever for the entire universe to enjoy! I want to melt into the seat where I sit. These folks are no strangers to me, however, I have never seen this particular clip before. I don't want it to ever go away.
I always admire a singer who does all her own stunts.
You should have seen her when she jumped off the stage and danced around!
This is the video from the first time I ever saw kd lang. I was so blown away by her performance, what an artists she is. Her vocals are spectacular!
i didn't know about this rendition. at first i expected it was not that same song.
Me too - I remember seeing this performance on TV way back when. Just an amazing performance! Blown away is right...
Same. I was 11 and thought she was amazing, still do!
Yep. Damn straight.
I watched this so many times, and I am always amazed...Whata a woman, what a voice, beautiful! And for someone who likes Butch Lesbians like me, she is a lovely sight :)))))))))))
This is sooo good. I love k.d.!
I sure hope she has found peace and happiness in her life. She has a voice and style to thank god for.
If nothing else I love your TH-cam name. Perfect.
KD demonstrates the absurdity of those lyrics. Brilliant.
All of her stuff is incredible...but my favorite by far is Shadowland. Her performance is just incredible.
Oh she is just great! I love her. She was very flamboyant in her early days. It's great to see. I saw her much more times following Constant Craving. All You Can Eat is still one of my favourite albums.
she is by far the best female singer i have ever heard!
That last long pause was so unexpected. I'm counting the seconds of silence, then, she starts singing again, and it scares me. I don't when to expect it!
Stunning fearless performance by KD ❤
Her high notes are hauntingly lovely and odd
WOW . . . i'm 62 and consider Her as top 10 of all time!!!
This is so powerful on so many levels. She's such a great singer and performer!
KD Lang, you are out of this world talented!
KD Lang is a great singer and has such stage presence.
One of the best voices ever!
Her voice gives me the chills....OMG! Wonderful!
O M G ! I love her so much!!
GodDAMNIT she is the best. Great performance.
What a performance Holy Moly. KD at her best.
An incredibly great cover of the Joanie Sommers pop classic. k. d. lang really put real pizazz into it. ☺
what a wonderful performance from k.d.!
Such an Awesome Singer & Performer!! I Love Her!! 😘👌💘
I just seen k.d. lang on a a video with Roy Orbison at a phenomenal fan this video reminded me but she did a song where she threw herself on stage and was singing I had to look this video up thank goodness TH-cam where's she throws herself on the stage and just get into the performance I have never forgot that many years ago thanks KD hello well bless you Sister and all you folks and TH-cam land bless you and happy New Year yay
Best female singer on Earth
I love this performance !
Quite possibly the funniest thing I've ever seen. And, man, can she sing.
I came across this late at night as a teenager in the 90s. I was not a fan. I was deep into
alternative music at the time. This performance changed my entire view of her. I was instantly in love.
oh when she reaches that high point! it's so beautiful it hurts! wow she is goo!
Phenomenal performance, per usual.
Phenomenal voice
Wow! Great rendition with a lil punch!
I have video of her performing this on SNL. Love watching her live.
Oh, you're lucky! I was wondering if there was any footage of her SNL performance of this song on TH-cam. I remember that performance having such an impact on me! She's amazing. :)
I loved her at this stage in her early career. So cute and androgynous!
this was such a great concert!
Que manera de manejar su voz me deja sin palabras
that was amazing.
Wow. Just wow.
Wow! Talk about a new spin on an old tune. I like it!
WOW . . . I Really Met HER~~~
. . . Canadian Gal From ALBERTA!!!!
Fantastic Talent (in My Top 10)!!!
PLEASE WATCH ANYTHING OF HERS!!!
. . . u will be HAPPY!!!
I think her cover of this song was meant as more of a statement. The song, in it's original form, sounds almost like a peppy endorsement of domestic violence. Or, at least, an archaic view of masculinity. "Johnny get angry, Johnny get mad...Johnny, show me that you care, really care for me." kd really brings that out with her exaggerated show of being hit (and falling to the floor).
rivergirl2 yup
I know its a very late reply.
But the original song was never about domestic violence.It was about a man being a man.Not the feminine type man,but a manly man.
Johnny is probably a wimp,who doesn't even have the courage to stop Freddie from bothering his girl.When she threatens to leave him instead of showing of her he loves her and wants her to stay by going out of his way and doing crazy romantic things,he instead stands there like a little child being scolded.
Her desire is clear,she wants her man to make her feel protected,to be her rock,someone she can count on through tough times,to show her that he will fight the whole world for her.
@@Bomthebom No. She's ridiculing the songs of the era, when it was "okay" to "show your love" by beating the crap out of you.
@@Bomthebom yes, agreed, and on point!
If KD Lang wanted to make a statement about domestic violence, while poking fun at an early 1960s teen song, she could have chosen "He Hit Me And It Felt Like A Kiss," instead.
"Johnny Get Angry" is about Joanie Sommers wanting her boyfriend to be confident, but not abusive!
@@Bomthebom what crock- it was anti a man who is sensitive and kind and not jealous because another guy cut in-it was a time when "masculine' was tough and demanding and the boss and yes getting angry at every little thng-- i was there!!!!
k.d. U do it the Best OF ALL TIME!!!
. . . from a fellow Canadian!!!
So amazing!]
she’s simply incredible 😲👏😖💖💞
❤❤❤ fantástico parabéns
Always love my KD!!
I am a gay man and I LOVE kd Lang! I don't think it really matters. Singing/music is universal.

I 💖 playful performances!
Vintage k.d. lang! langsense, we all stand behind your every effort to promote k.d. to her benefit and for our faithful, loving support that helps k.d. pay the bills! Snatch and grab to our detriment and deprivation makes no sense. WE DON'T WANT NO SENSE, WE WANT langsense! WE WANT k.d. lang!

What is it about kd lang that might turn people off. She can't be underated, her talent is very evident. Best female vocalist
Damn shame too.
It was an awesome performance.
Check out her version of Hallelujah
❤❤❤
Sublime.
Liberace is Kd Langs older sister.
In 1958 Liberace sued a London newspaper and won $25,000 for libel. They said that he was a homosexual. He said that he had to take this action to protect his reputation.
Ben Mink is the BEST!!!!!!!!
I've been trying to locate a copy of the Bravo profile show of kd. anyone know where? i love her so much and my old vhs copy is now grainy and faded> thanks I also love her hands!!
Funny story: Halloween, i think of 1994, i went out to the lgbtq bars in my Saint Louis, Mo, and dressed as ' k d lang ". If you saw me, we have a pretty similar face, and i was told on a few occasions in and outside the gay community. I wanted to dress sharp, and bc i was too hyper-self-critical, like we tend to be, i felt i had to. I'm not really girly anyway, and have been told i'm a '' d*ky-F*g" more than one too. So, i thought i could look both sexy and classly, maculine as well. Loved her, stil do, and her appearance on SNL doing this song was etched in my mind as brilliant for somemany reasons. (I THINK it was Saturday Night lLive, almost 100%, but i don't see it on youtube anywhere. I'm politicalgtoo, so this struck the rght chord, pun intended. .So i searched and called arround to vintage clothing shops and antique stores and the like, looking ofr a MATADOR JACKET, when this was before Ebay so enriched gay boy's lives.. . And really, WHAT regualr guy doesn't have two or three MATADOR JAKCETS in their closet? So, got it. It may have been a version for a bigger lady, but it was do-able. The ONLY person who apporached me, and i'm going to guess ,NOT for my number, thugh i maybe have been as adorably androgyous as k d... She was dressed as the charcer 'Alfalfa" from that balck-and-whie tv show "Our Gang" with the fake freckles and the strand of hair sticking up on top. So adorable, and if she'd have hit n me, who knows? It was autumn ,and i wanted to be dating SOMEBODY for the Christmas holidays,.. (Kidding, prob.) She pegged me right, so to speak. No guy did, or even prob talked to me. Thank you k d. and i wish you'd get some aiarplay, if you want it. Talent and beauty shoudn't be frmaed as a rend or flash n the pan which she ain't. ( yeah, if SHE's called "BEAUTIFUL" i am too! ) ,,ARTFUL, a PERFORMANCE ART PIECE ,but whthe the excellent chops to make it as gorgeously great to listen to, as it was beauftiul and impaortant to watch.... kinda of a timely thing to consider playing on FB and the like, gven how gender-based , sexuality-connected violence and misogyny is sadly a topic that's worse than ever in our "Make America Break Again..women's heart and sourls and bodies...
Daniel K - you need God’s help
why is there a political discussion going on when kd lang is singing?? this is a music site and i have to say the best womon singer in the business is singing PAY ATTENTION
WOW!!!
What kind of guitar is that? Anyway ... keep it up K.D. ... you rule girl!!!
