Product Description
Amazon.ca Canadian Essential
The album on which she officially gave up on Nashville and began singing torchy, adult-contemporary pop, Ingénue has been referred to by lang as her "stalker" album for its emphasis on songs about desire and obsession. Despite such onerous implications, the album is a charmer, thanks to lang's sincerity and passion and the smoldering arrangements of songs such as "Constant Craving," "The Mind of Love" and "Still Thrives This Love." The album's somewhat dark spirits are tempered by the campy "Miss Chatelaine," which lang has often performed live to the accompaniment of a Lawrence Welk-style bubble machine. With Ingénue, you can do the same in the comfort of your own home. -- S. Duda

Not a dud in the bunch,
This review is from: Ingenue (Audio CD)
This is one of the most perfect albums I've ever come across. I'd put it in the same category as some of the great rock albums or R&B cuts. For the first time in my life, I'm at a loss to say which song I like the best. Having listened to this over and over and over, I still find new things. Wonderfully crafted and full of deep truth and soul-searching, this is a must for anyone who likes K.D. And even for those who don't. If I had to pick, "Wash me Clean" and "Constant Craving" are probably going to be the ones most people warm to, but again, there's not a dud in the bunch.

Beautifully done,
By Brian loves music (Ottawa, ON Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ingenue (Audio CD)
This is definitely one of the best albums of the 1990's and certainly one of k.d. lang's best (although my favourite is the incredible "Absolute Torch and Twang"). The album has one beautiful song after another. As gorgeous as the songs are, they are made even more extraordinary by k.d.'s heartfelt and stunning vocals. What a voice!!!No doubt most people have heard "Constant Craving" and perhaps "Miss Chatelaine". They are great songs, but the highlights on this album are "Still Thrives This Love" and "Mind Of Love". This album is a definite keeper.

One of the Best CD's I Own!,
By
This review is from: Ingenue (Audio CD)
This collection is a tapestry of human passion, a weaving of human dreams and aspirations and pure mood! It has a beautiful, mystical type quality to it, that few musicians could match. Not many could match the pure beauty of these songs. One reviewer called this "mental medication," well it sure beats valium, just kidding. The true music listener, the careful music listener sees the treasure of this wonderful CD.
