Hence the name (since it is the "bare bones" version of the song). It's nice, but I'm certain it was included as filler. johnm ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 04 Mar 1999 14:08:42 +1100 From: "Sarah Whitaker (ADC Administration)" Subject: CAREY As an ignorant new comer to this list, I was wondering who Joni was writing about in her song Carey. The song always reminds me of a torrid love affair I had whilst on holidays in the beach side town of Byron Bay (eastern most tip of Australia). He was an environmentalist and lived a very earthy lifestyle. Well, two weeks holiday soon turned into two months and it was really hard to say goodbye to him but I missed my "clean white linen & fancy french cologne". I did eventually leave of course as I didn't belong there but whenever I hear Carey, I just have to close my eyes and I can almost smell him & the beach again. So I would love to know what Joni's inspiration was for the song. By the way, love the list. It's great to be able to associate with others who have the same passion for Joni. I bought my first Joni album in 1994 and I literally cried the first time I played it through, not only because of her beautiful lyrics and melodies but because it had taken me so long to find her. For the first time, I felt I had a CD in my collection that truly belonged there and said something about the type of person I am.

Heck, it was included so all of the JMDL guitarists can study her picking!

Tears of Stone is a beautiful album that anyone interested in Irish music should buy. JM does a Chieftain-arranged version of 'Magdalene Laundries' which is very good. Lots of others including the brilliant Corrs singing 'I know my love', Natalie Merchant, Bonnie Raitt, Sinead O'Connor, etc. etc. Buy it!
