I think they'll also like 'Chelsea Morning', 'Shiny Toys', 'Dancing Clown', and for the grown-up feeling hidden inside those kids maybe 'Michael From Mountains', 'All I Want', 'Dreamland' and well so many others. I wonder. What do you think would have happened if Joni, the same Joni as we know her now, had the chance to listen to Joni Mitchell songs when she was a child?...

I would say that the page should include: Joni mentions (or mentions of Joni's songs or paintings) in books; Joni mentions (or her music or paintings) used in films. This should, in my opinion, include when her songs are performed by others as well. (But it's just my opinion.) I can give you a pretty good head start on Joni songs in movies, both by Joni and covers. Just when you thought the JMDL couldn't get any better! :~) SCJoniBob NP: Elvis C, "Sweet Dreams" ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2002 06:22:50 -0800 (PST) From: Nuriel Tobias Subject: Les, a tiny question (non-Joni) Hello Les, hello everyone, Les, I was wondering, is there a list with all JMDL folks email addresses?

Even though we both love her more than words can say, we don't play her CD's as one might expect from a Jonilista. Yet, when I hear or think of a lyric from one of her songs, (usually Hejeira-sp? or Amelia) it plays over and over in my head. I especially like when someone quotes her on the list. I don't need the CD because her music is already in my head.

DED just leaves me COLD> > Maybe,I'll give it another go in four years and see if anything on my > part has changed? > > Bree > Dear Bree I find that the albums that are too "obvious", meaning the ones that are instantly liked, are the ones I get bored with after 2 or 3 listens. Conversely, the ones that take a while to discover will reveal hidden treasures at every listen for years to come. Likewise the song on an album I like least the 1st time becomes my favorite on the 5th play, this happens all the time. You may never like DED though, but please don't give up after just 1 listen. Another listening suggestion: should anyone ever suffer a setback (work related, emotional betrayal, your savings & loan going under, etc.) then you may find some relief and support in DED because Joni already spelled out her gut feelings on those topics. Hope you never do need it. I know DED helped me when I was angry.

Oscar Wilde says - Nothing ages like happiness. J - Marked by lovers and styles of clothes. OW - Fashion is what one wears oneself. What is unfashionable is what other people wear. J - I came in as bright as a neon light and I burned out right there before him. OW - The secret of life is never to have an emotion that is unbecoming. J - Shacked up downtown making love without a license. OW - The ideal husband? There couldn't be such a thing. The institution is wrong. J - When I'm always bound and tied to someone. OW - One should always be in love. This is the reason one should never marry. J - Help me I think I'm falling in love again. OW - One is sure to be disappointed if one tries to get romance out of modern life. J - I'm so sick of this game, it's hip! it's hop! Life's too short! The whole thing's gotten boring! OW - In modern days ... the fashion of poetry writing has become far too common, and should, if possible, be discouraged. Must be the Irish blood.

It's fair to say i really really love the book. I did not think the film weas perfect. Excellent yes, not perfect.It was for the most part visually stunning, atmospherically impressive and truly captivating. I am coming from the point of view of a fan, of course. Elijah *is* Frodo. McKellen is superb; apparently he was copying Tokiens own voice when playing Gandalf! and Christopher Lee, well now, i am so surprised. I saw him in the Gormenghast trilogy last year, and though he was wooden and purely awful! In this movie he was great. As for Aragorn- uttelry perfect! Galadriel was very surprising. Not at all what i had interpreted from the book. the movie interpretation of Galadriel is light years from my interpretation of her ( and frankly, i prefer the sad, forlorn, somber, reluctant Galadriel in my head to the scary, reluctant, scary one in the movie!). Jackson's vision of Middle Earth is perhaps as close to Tolkiens own vision as we'll ever see. This may not be perfect for some us, but still pretty close. There are some very funny moments, most especially due to Pip and Merry, of course. They have been reduced to clowns basically. The characters of Legolas and Gimli are reduced to lots of standing around with the odd line in the movie; gone are all those nuances that made them so loveable in the books- including, as Victor pointed out i think, their developing friendship. Boromirs death is sad, the audience sat in disbelief for that. But it was after Gandalfs death in Moria that noone moved!! (couldnt help feeling smug when a lot of people were like "he cant die" and "oh my god, what will they do without him " and "nah, he cant be dead!!" hehe). Tom Bombadil is not in this movie, as we knew before hand. I guess he isn't entirely relevant to the advancement of the story, but it is such a wonderful little chapter. The film kept all of the key features and characters from the book. The immense detail the novel indulges in, of course, had to be cut down some for a cinematic venture. If one had not read the books, ones understanding might have been a little marred. My sister (and yes, she *loved* it, hasnt read it) really had to concentrate at some points to keep it all straight in her head, not so much as to render much negativity on the film. i didn't have to concentrate to follow the endless stream of, what in Star Trek fandom could be called, "technobabble"- Rivendell, Balrog, Isengard, Lothlorien, Haldir, Palan'tir, Orc, Nazgul, Galadriel, Elrond etc etc etc, you know, all these strange words that assault the viewer. Detailed and important parts of the book are reduced to mere fleeting episodes in the movie, but this this isn't necesarily or entirely a bad thing, it is probably needed to maintain the pace of film.And we have to admit, that pace is required for a "blcokbuster". AT just under three hours, it was imperative for Peter Jackson to keep everything moving and interesting for the general public. And yes, he really succeeded. The major problem that i found with the movie was that it all felt very contrived; and very didactic. None of that letting the audience think for themselves crap!!!! i saw the movie twice, and my enjoyment was not at all marred by the fact that i had seen it already, in fact, some things seemed clearer to me the second time i saw the the film. and some things impressed me even more! overall, i had fun comparing my impressions of the book to the equivalent parts of the movie. I found it to be faithful and satisfying. a wonderful film based on an amazing book. Jackson is not ripping us off; he is not cheating us. Any disappointments i expressed here are probably inevitable considering my feelings for the book. I would highly recommend the movie to anyone.

In any case, that's one of my favorites by her, and I don't understand why people knock Cool Water. I love her version of that song. I've steadily built up my collection of her CD's over the years, and my latest purchase of two years ago was Don Juan's Reckless Daughter. I love the songs on there, especially Paprika Plains, Talk to Me, Otis and Marlena, and The Silky Veils of Ardor. Now I'm working on her live albums. It's neat to see so many fans, because I went through this stage where I thought I was her one and only true fan, and nobody appreciated her but me. Silly, I know, but when you find a jewel, sometimes you want to hoard it to yourself. Now I'm older, and I realize that she's a human being with a special gift that she shared with the world. All of us should share our gifts too, whatever they may be. Joni taught me that more than anything.

Just about every night or early, cold, dark morning when I go out to take the dog for her walk, and I look up and see stars, I can't help but hear, "I stepped outside to breathe the air and stare up at the stars".

That's exactly how I felt about Joni for a long time - I just didn't think there was *anyone* out there who had the same appreciation as I did!
