It was really cool to see the different expressions and interpretations and I thought that some of the lyrics were very clever indeed. I'm sure others enjoyed reading them as well. It's been a great year for Joni covers with another one on the way so stay tuned.

So much sad in listening sounds incorrect to my foreign ears. Should it not be "sadness" then? But of course "sadness" does not fit into the rythm of the line.
