Been away a bit but had to chime in. Laughed out loud and needed it. I remember seeing the movie (Downfall) some years ago.

But it's clear we're in the minority. I'm very thankful for all Joni has given us, and I don't care if she never realeases any old recording or outtake or whatever. I'm sure she has her aesthetic reasons and I respect her very much for that. I don't plan on buying 'Love has many faces' either, and I don't feel like I'm betraying her or anything of the sort. But I'm glad she's still active and still loving music.
