I love that song, so simple and yet so expressive. Vince ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 11 May 2002 00:38:25 -0400 From: "Blair Fraipont" Subject: Re: Joni's sexiest songs Yea there are alot of non-sexy songs on Dog Eat Dog.. probably the most unsexy is "Ethiopia" or from Chalk Mark in A Rain Storm, "Lakota" I will also have to say, that "Roses Blue" from Clouds is unsexy, eventhough I love the everything about the song except the lyrics. "Sex Kills" is also Unsexy.. Oh gees oh Gosh, this is too easy, My favorite sexy song by Joni would be either "Court and Spark" or "IN France they Kiss on Main Street".. and then there are tons of one liners or melodies that can lure me into daydreaming.. I thought provoking post indeed.

I'm all for discussing politics, etc, but if the debate turns personal, could that part please go off-list? (Or better yet, could it just not go personal? Sometimes we need to just remember to breathe and count backwards from 10.) I'd rather not have blistering rebuttals and re-rebuttal essays taking up tons of space in my JMDL reading. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 11 May 2002 01:10:40 EDT From: KJHSF@aol.com Subject: Sexy Joni Lyrics I'd have to say the all around sexiest scenario for me would be the Lesson In Survival images, which set my mind to imagining the kind of romantic relationship I'd want-- "You and me, deep kisses and the sun going down." "I'm gonna get a boat and we can row it if you ever get the notion to be needed by me, fresh salmon frying and the tide rolling in." "Hands alike, magnet and iron, the souls..."

I'll start by pointing out what I think are the differences here than the world at large...... (or some ways not an exact microcosm ) 1. Colorful,wacky,shameless,people...and I don't mean these adjectives pejoratively at all. I get here where I can get it nowhere else: that is, a little different take on life,sometimes to the absurd,but I like that. 2. This goes without saying,but the shear love and appreciation of Joni. Everyone here understands.....I still find this so incredible. (I can write FTR or Siquomb or" you know there maybe more" and people here know instantly what you are referring to. This is truly wonderful!!) 3. I find people here particularly generous. Maybe a tad more than outside of here. Of course, this could be because of their enthusiasm of wanting to share there little corner of Joni. 4. People here are more in the know,up to date,if you will. Oh yeah,the erudite posts. Especially the the ones containing thoughts on music. I am so ignorant when it comes to music theory/structure etc.. And I feel sometimes I am getting lessons and how lucky.....I'm not paying a dime. (I print many of these posts out and I share them with people outside of here....oh and some of the funny ones too. The Sunset Boulevard post comes to mind. ) And you know there maybe more..... BUT, BUT!! (you knew this was coming) 1. I find the political correctness here runs rampant at times. And people just dive on statements,that I will overlook because I know that the person was not quite as succinct as they should have been. (Do you think if someone were a true racist they would share this with the JMDL? I don't think so!! And a true racist, I would gamble, would not be here to begin with. ) 2. I was asked when I first joined, how I could possibly be a Joni fan when I was so far to the right on the political spectrum. ( this was off list) I still don't know why I was even asked such a question. (Here is your answer...........BECAUSE I LOVE HER FRIGGIN MUSIC!!!) 3. Several months ago there was a concern brought up by a lister and her post for the most part was completely ignored. Her post was very heartfelt and I thought had some legitimate grievances. But it was summarily dismissed,case closed..and that was it!! Her post involved two separate issues one which did involve a legal question. But her other concerns were completely ignored. 4. At times, I have been so disappointed and disillusioned just like I am outside of the list. But my whole world was shaken for a hile.....and so everything was tainted. And most of my disillusionment did not involve the list in general. BUT........even at times you know you want to leave it.....you know you would miss it.....and you stay.....
