Shambles.
This lady is one fine singer. Also does a great song about going down to the Legion Hall. Can't recall the correct title.

Yeah, funny she never really makes it into the mainstream or gets much publicity here (UK). I wonder if it's because she's gay? Or is it that she isn't a bimbo with breast implants?? Just a thought. I like her. She's talented and kooky.

Big Boned Gal
kd lang/Ben Mink


She was a big boned gal
From southern Alberta
You just couldn't call her small
And you can bet every saturday night
She'd be heading for the legion hall

Put her blue dress on
And she'd curl her hair
Oh she's been waiting all week
And with a bounce in her step
And a wiggle in her walk
She'd be swinging down the street

You could tell she was ready
By the look in her eye
As she slipped in through the crowd
She walked with grace
As she entered the place
Ya, the big boned gal was proud

Hey hey the big boned gal
Ain't no doubt she's a natural
Shakin' and a'snakin'
And a'breakin' up across the floor
Hey hey the big boned gal
Ain't no doubt she's a natural
Reelin' and a'rockin'
And she's yelling out for more
Now people would come
From miles around
And gather there to dance
But when the big boned gal came shufflin' in
She'd hold them in a trance

The irony of k.d. is that she is a lesbian and vegetarian who hails from the most right wing Canadian province which also happens to be the beef cattle capital of the country. Her "Meat Stinks" campaign didn't win her many fans in her community of Consort, Alberta.

The beauty of k.d. is her wondrous voice and singing ability, she takes a back seat to no one.

As a matter of interest, the town near which I live - Avonmore, Ontario - is her ancestral home, there are many of her relatives who still live in the area.

Didn't know that Bobad. Interesting. Did she live across the road?
Hay Guest, thanks for the words to "Big Boned Gal".
