I was especially proud because I was alerted to it by MY SON who was watching the show and texted me about it (Daddy beams with pride!). As for the performance, it was fairly solid. Like you say, NOT an easy song to sing. Some nice moments sandwiched in between sharp and flat notes. The song swerves enough on its own without adding the runs, I found them distracting. And it's not because I'm locked into Joni's version - I've heard over 50 different recordings of the song. Sidebar: It's funny that Joni's BIGGEST hit is not even in the top ten of her most-covered. Again, I think it speaks to the difficulty factor. Sidebar #2: We're about to go over the 1,000 mark of BSN covers. (And there was much rejoicing in all the land). Sidebar #3: This makes the 2nd time we've gotten a Joni song on The Voice, the first being A Case of You last year. I don't know that a Joni tune has EVER been done on American Idol. The Voice is now more popular than American Idol. You can come to your own consequences.

Although not a fan of Mariah/Christina runs, it is great to see what a young singer with these capabilities does with "Help Me". Fair amount of criticism of the song choice in comments, but that's probably true of a lot of the performances, Anita > On 12 Nov 2014, at 02:53, c Karma wrote: > > Danica Shirey just sang "Help Me" via coach/producer Pharrell Williams. > "This song is really hard it has like 20 chord changes." > Afterward.

We should have a standing ovation for the 1,000th cover of BSN!! I never get tired of it, or of listening to versions of it. I also completely agree with you about Help Me. That was the one Joni song our now defunct band, Lava Rock, would perform and it was a beast. Although our drummer Vanessa, nailed it!! Yeah!!

I was so excited that I was selected to paint a painting for her music video Adding the Blue which was released today.

I have it bookmarked, and everytime I click the bookmark....BAM, I have to see that BoxSet that I don't want. You can click through it and go to the site so it's not unusable, just a minor pain which will pass until the next compilation that she does. One of my other musical heroes Bruce Springsteen has a similar package, a re-release of his first 7 albums (as if fans don't have them) and NEW photographs and miscellaneous BS. Oh, and they're "remastered"..whoop whoop dee do. I get that these things come out just before the holidays - what a coincidence! I owe Les Irvin a can of whoop-ass for that pop-up.
