We all come and go unknown but I feel for every one of the souls who leave this earth. I lost my mother in 1995 and to this day, I'm not over it. Never will be I suspect. The only thing that helps is knowing there are other sources of love still around. Gaining new sources helps even more. Here's a new source of love for your Texas Tush. :-) Mark in Sydney ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 4 Jan 2006 08:17:55 EST From: LCStanley7@aol.com Subject: Re: Now Doing Great Things with Joni's Lyrics Vince wrote: There is a huge difference, Mark, between respecting something and saying it is so sacred that it cannot be improved, adapted, sharpened, edited, tweaked - and there really is nothing like that which any human has produced. Hi Vince, I like the saying, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder." It seems to be a human tendency to always wants something "better." In my own personal experience sometimes when I have that desire, I miss out on the perfection that is already there. If there wasn't a lot of perfection already in life, none of us would be here. I think of this from the molecular level to the universal level. Some people might hear Circle Game and not like it at all. Joni didn't think much of the song when she presented it. I'm glad she didn't sit in her dislike and rewrite the song a million times and never let it go out to the public. Beauty in the eye of the beholder is like sound in general I think. Some things vibrate our souls more than others. But, the way I see it, there is perfection in the very fact that our souls are moved at all. When people are in perfect harmony, there is a perfection, a magic about it. Yet when a person is dissonant at just the right moment, there is perfection and magic in that too. I don't claim to understand what is and what isn't sacred. It seems it can be as varied as people are varied. It is determined by so many parameters. Maybe you are more like Joni in your appraisal of the Circle Game than I am Vince. But that doesn't make your appraisal right and mine wrong. What is sacred or perfect to me doesn't have to be the same to you. Doesn't make it any more or less sacred or perfect in the grand scheme of the universe either. Some say God's greatest attribute is mercy. I see it in this.

Significant because: a. It's Cass Elliot, one of the finest pure voices in pop music history; b. It's the only known cover of ST out there. Since that post, I've gotten a couple of requests from curious JMDLer's about it, so since it's on Volume 82 (not scheduled til November!) I thought I'd put it out there for whomever might like to hear it: http://www.quickdump.com/files/1044322852.html Enjoy - as always, comments are appreciated.

A bit rushed, perhaps, but lovely. A nice arrangement and Cass sings it very carefully and well. What a wonderful voice she had. Makes me miss her. Not as good as Joni, though. Thanks, Bob!
