Product Description

CD Description

DRAG is one more inspired nail in the coffin of Lang's image as a neo-country singer. On the heels of 1995's electronic/dance-oriented ALL YOU CAN EAT, DRAG purports to be a concept album, with all the songs thematically linked by the common subject of cigarettes and smoking. While this link is tenous, uniting such tunes as the Hollies' "The Air That I Breathe" and an otherwise-inexplicable cover of Steve Miller's "The Joker", what really matters here is not the concept, butthe music.
With production aid from jazz-pop ace Craig Street (Cassandra Wilson, Jimmy Scott), Lang offers up a sumptuous collections of ballads, gorgeously arranged and beautifully sung. Despite her reputation as a belter, she approaches the songs on DRAG with grace and subtlety, making this lush collection a stirring, understated pleasure.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning, 5 July 2003
By G. Ormrod "georgie" (lancashire) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
Of all kd lang's albums, this is my favourite. It shows her at her most vocally dynamic, powering her way through emotional songs and whispering in a cigarette fuelled way on others.
The instrumentation is excellent too. The album has a smooth & jazzy feel to it that makes it an unbelievably laid back album to relax to, or else to sing your lungs off to.
The tracks range from the humerous to the melancholic and all stand out as beautiful pieces of music.
This is such a wonderful album.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's another world..., 14 Nov 2000
By J. H. Sanders (Bolton, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Beautiful, breathtaking, and darker-than-darker-than-dark. I really cannot rate this album highly enough. From the 'Psycho'-inspired opening of 'Don't Smoke In Bed' right through to the last notes of 'Love is Like a Cigarette', it just doesn't get any better.

'Your Smoke Screen' is hugely frustrating (please give us another chorus!), 'Hain't it Funny' was an inspired song to begin with, and 'Til the Heart Caves In' will have you singing until the cows come home. It is truly, truly inspired, with lavish production and nothing left out. Even the weakest songs have been transformed by the lang treatment. An absolute must-have.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superbly smooth album that reveals more with each playing, 22 Nov 1999
By A Customer
I bought this album when it first appeared and during that time have played it probably more than any other album in my collection. It just gets better with each airing.

Some of the songs I was already familiar with, but others were new to me. Miss Lang's version of The Joker for me is even better than the original - worth the entrance money alone!

The theme of the album is songs with a smoking connection - some rather tenuous to say the least. Never the less, the selection of tracks is inspired, and range from the unusual and unconventional Smoke Rings, to the wonderfully emotive My Old Addiction.

K.D. Lang manages to bring a quality and warmth to each track that, for my money, make her the best female recording artist of her generation - bar none!

The production quality of the album is also superb, and just invites you to sit in a darkened room and fall into the music.

If this type of thing is your bag, then just buy it!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the great albums.
Lang has the best voice of any living singer of popular music and this is one of her finest albums. Buy with confidence.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cough!
Kd Lang has a habit of making albums that are designed not to sell. Ingenue had a title no one knew how to pronounce and probably would have been a bigger seller if called Diva or... Read more
