I think it's probably her incredible sense of rhythm combined with her lyrics that most distinguishes her from other musicians. Also, the words become more speculative and more interesting....But there are gems from earlier...how about...or no, let me not start something contentious again. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 18 Jun 2014 14:05:09 -0500 From: Laura O Subject: Chaka CD & Two Grey Rooms Bob, Two Grey Rooms is a good possibility for sure! I read this article yesterday. In it Chaka wanted to do Two Grey Rooms, saying "that's my song" but Joni told her: 'No, no Chaka, no. Don't do 'Two Grey Rooms'. You've got to do 'Ladies Man'. So 'Ladies Man' was put on the FUNK THIS album. http://jonimitchell.com/library/view.cfm?id=1660&from=search I just found Chaka on YouTube singing Two Grey Rooms!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-x5qhduvNF8 I LOVE LOVE Chaka but her version just isn't as haunting and doesn't touch me emotionally, as does Joni's version. Joni's always makes me break out the tissues, especially so when watching her video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DjDi_plwi5A&list=UUHQjvLBC1zoUCqry3fWOi-A Bob, love the idea of Joni in the background.......I'm hoping too!
