We all know Joni's incredible range in her early days. Nothing against Taylor, but her range seems too limited and her voice too reedy and thin to tackle Joni's songs. I see no way around this problem unless they can work miracles with autotune or simply have Taylor lip sync to Joni.

I stick with the grounding theory. Many say it also lowered her vocal register but Joni says the smoking had nothing to do with that either. Blames it on the rock chick years belting it out over a band. Either she is in complete denial or is very sure about things here. Again I stick with her position on it. Two doctors I know say there should be stronger health warnings on butter wrappers than on cigarette packets. Having seen the state of smokers in death compared to butter eaters ( lol !) they both chose fags over dairy. Mind you they are both of them alcoholic medical men of that I'm in no doubt though they'd both be intellectually scandalised at the idea ! Each to their own. I like butter and fags,,,fags as in cigarettes although I'm not immune to the other type...I believe that's an american expression... being one myself . Long live smoking Joni. A good ambassador for puffers worldwide. Bjork. Prayer of the Heart. John Taverner.

Maybe Taylor could play a young high school Joni painting, dancing and bowing but then they need another actress for the "real"Joni! ;-) The would definitely need a kind of Marni Nixon from this generation for Taylor singing..

Clear the entire forest of craving and you will see the Way to freedom' Ahh, what an aspiration! I often find my way on to a Fitness path, pilates, yoga, swimming and daily mediation, often to fall back into over eating, drinking or whatever the following week. Mind you, when I am on my healthy path, I guess that's still craving something, so I am clearly not 'there' yet! My Dad died of lung cancer from smoking at the same age as I am now (57) and my Mum was found dead by my brother with a cup of coffee, a chocolate biscuit and a cigarette close by at 83. What a great way to go for her! My Mum LOVED her ciggies and I am sure that's one reason she liked Joni so much, too. Fortunately, I never liked smoking, so that's one thing didn't inherit. One thing that is certain, as someone has said in this thread, we will all end up leaving Life in one way or another and I often think 'whatever gets you through the night' - is pretty alright, especially when your nights are long. It's more complicated when it badly affects others. It just goes to show that I really don't know Life at all, Anita On 17 February 2012 16:48, LC Stanley wrote: > Puzzles on the ground. > > > On Feb 16, 2012, at 10:15 AM, Victor wrote: > > > Right on Catherine!

"the age group who would want to see a film about 60's and 70's songwriters" *and almost all adults* "find her completely lacking in gravitas, guitar chops and vocal chops" But at least we know why she was writing Joni's lyrics on her arms last year. Congratulations, Casting People. You found a young, willowy blonde who can kind of sing and play guitar. Rare. Is there enough sarcasm dripping off that statement?

I teach her songs to 12 year olds on a daily basis so I've heard a lot of her records and they are the definition of formulaic, production pop with a few truck images included to appeal to the country base. They should pick an unknown actress who has all of the above, if you ask me. ------------------------------ End of onlyJMDL Digest V2012 #41 ******************************** ------- Post messages to the list by clicking here:mailto:joni@smoe.org Unsubscribe by clicking here: mailto:onlyjoni-digest-request@smoe.org?body=unsubscribe
