(and I hope Michael gets it, too; if not, please tell me and I'll upload it again) While we're at it, let me share another one from this album: this was my first contact with Van Morrison, when I found this in a sales bin (hey, you know, Van wasn't very famous in Spain back in 1976 or so). The song I upload now may be some oddity, but it's one of my all-time favourites: one that is always in my car and I play it a lot going to work... So now, for you, "08 - Virgo Clowns.mp3" (5966 KB): http://s38.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=14GW3OYEGDEYQ3BWE968QSMDTP Have a Wonderful time!

Travelling in some vehicle into Morning UConn Town today, I happened to hear this song on the radio. So, with all kinds of synchronicity and JMDLidiomatic logic swirling in my head (Julius just met Jackson Browne , it is Clarence Clemons' birthday today and Rosie in NJ loves him and Bruuuuuce, and JMDLers have a special bond because Joni is a friend of ours, etc.) ''.....there is your song from meeeeeeeee....." today! Love, Patti P. P.S. Now *don't" tell this is in the "Brokeback Mountain" soundtrack! YOU'RE A FRIEND OF MINE Clarence Clemons & Jackson Browne Striking out?

This is an email that our wonderful secretary Mary sent to our former department head. Got a "bwwwaaa ha ha" out of me, anyway! ; ) - ---------------------- Hi David! Hope you are doing well. I'm finally getting around to updating the many lists I keep, and I'd like to include your new home phone #. Apparently Patti doesn't carry your number around with her, and I guess it doesn't remind her of a line from a Joni song, because she can't remember it... Mary - ------------------------ Hey, ya gotta love that she calls her "Joni" instead of "Joni Mitchell", or worse yet, "Joni Who?" At least I'm gettin' the word out, right? Darn right! Joni, Joni, Joni -- Joni's da word!

You can certainly get in if you have the will. Grovel here on the JMDL, call the box office, try the website...as they often put tickets up for sale after initial allotment is sold out.

Notaro" Subject: All rolled into one The new Rolling Stone named I Am a Bird Now by Antony and the Johnsons one of the year's best album. From the article: There is, above all, the voice: a stratospheric tenor of fluttering worry and laserlike emotional force, as iff Morrisey, Joni Mitchell and Jimmy Scott were singing together in the same man.

I understand the updating remixing of Paprika Plains, but isn't the version of "River" on here the same as the one on "Blue". And while I'm at it, have you noticed that "Chinese Cafe" in the same liner notes is rendered as "Chinese Checkers"!!? NOT THE SAME THING AT ALL. mike NP "Pet Sounds" - -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.

He was playing **WEIRD AL YANKOVIC 1983** CD told me excitedly that there is a Joni mention in one of his songs. Even tho it's "weird'' .........just had to share this one! Anyone else know about this one?? Laura Found the complete lyrics online. ("WEIRD AL" YANKOVIC 1983) I'll Be Mellow When I'm Dead Lyrics I don't care about your karma I don't care about what's hip No space cadet's gonna tell me what to do I won't swim in your jacuzzi You can't make me settle down I'd rather kick and jump and bite and scratch And scream until I'm blue I may as well be hyper as long as I'm still around 'Cause I'll have lots of time to be laid back When I'm six feet underground. (Chorus) I'll be mellow when I'm dead (I'll be mellow when I'm dead) I'll be mellow when I'm dead (I'll be mellow when I'm dead) I'll be mellow when I'm dead I'll be mellow when I'm dead (I'll be mellow when I'm dead) I'll be mellow when I'm dead (I'll be mellow when I'm dead) I'll be mellow when I'm dead When are you cosmic cowboys gonna get it through your heads I'll be mellow when I'm dead I'll be mellow when I'm dead I'll be mellow when I'm dead I can't stand the smell of incense I don't really like to jog No Joni Mitchell 8-tracks in my car (oooh) I hate anything organic Even health food makes me sick You won't catch me sipping Perrier Down in some sushi bar, I tell you Now's the time to go for all the gusto you can grab You'll have plenty of time to be low-key When you're laid out on the slab (Chorus) Ow! Bobcat! I don't want no part of that vegetarian scene I won't buy me a pair of designer jeans No redwood hot tub to my name I got all that I want and if it's all the same to you I don't need a course in self-awareness To find out who I am And I'd rather have a Big Mac or a Jumbo Jack Than all the bean sprouts in Japan. Wow!!!! Ah so don't ask me what I'm into I don't need to prove I'm cool I'll break your arm if you ask me what's my sign I won't tell you where my head's at I don't need to see no shrink Psychosis may be in this year but I'm really not that kind And I'm in no hurry to be casual In fact I think I'll wait Until I'm pushing up the daisies Like wow, man, can you relate? I'll be mellow when I'm dead I'll be mellow when I'm dead I'll be mellow when I'm dead (mellow when I'm dead) I'll be mellow when I'm dead I'll be mellow when I'm dead I'll be mellow when I'm dead (mellow when I'm dead) I'll be mellow when I'm dead I'll be mellow when I'm dead .....wooooowww! ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 11 Jan 2006 17:01:19 -0800 (PST) From: Bob Muller Subject: Re: WEIRD AL YANKOVICK and Joni That's pretty cool, Laura - I hadn't heard about that one, and it's not listed in the "Songs That Mention Joni" section at JM.com either - you got a find!
