Welcome to you! We have all chatted away for years and years about Joni's music, but this does, at least to me, feel a very special time. There's a lot of Life around here :~) I have just been viewing last night's rendition of 'Woodstock' where Joni is singing with all the artists at the Tribute in Toronto. I thought to myself that it seemed SO different from when I saw Joni sing it in London in 1970 and more latterly in Paris in 1983 and Edmonton in '94. I wondered what it was that was going on for me. When Joni moved to the guitar rendition that I first saw in '83, it felt really sparse. There was a darkness and cynicism and sadness to the song. Last night's version was just the opposite.There was a dance and a celebration. I saw a woman who seemed in a very different place. I can't quite find the words and maybe shy away from yours of her being 'extraterrestrial' and even 'spiritual'. But, Truth is, at least from where I sit, something powerful was going on there last night and it felt a bit like a prayer, Anita x On 19/06/2013, James Lacy wrote: > Hi folks, > > I am new to Joni's site and would like to know if anyone agrees with me that > she is extraterrestrial like beautiful and perhaps more so than any > spiritual living female singer in history? > I am 63 and was born in the Haight/Ashbury in 1950.
