Song of the Day—kd lang's version of "Hallelujah"

For anyone who has seen the pic of me in a dinner suit in the right hand panel of this blog and wondered "what the heck is Geoff doing in a dinner suit!", it was taken a couple of hours before this performance by kd lang at this year's Logies Awards, which is kinda like Australia's version of the Emmys. Don't ask me how I got invited, who knows, but I've been a huge fan of kd for so many years I actually named my cat (one of them) after her! If you listen carefully, you can hear my solitary 'Woo!" at the 56 second mark (well before everyone else!) as soon as I realized what she was about to sing! Thanks kd! You rock!!!

  1. Great choice for song of the day. Her performance of this at the opening ceremony of the Vancouver Olympics was breathtaking.

  2. Thanks Jeff! It kind of annoys me that the host keeps referring to the Olympics as the Montreal Olympics, but heck, nothing could ruin that song!
