Beautiful. Almost as heartfelt as Joni's original which can't be bettered. But who is the artist, Bonce?
 It's a tough and brave job to try to cover any of Joni's music. The best thing to do perhaps is to completely change the interpretation to something entirely new.

 Matthews Southern Comfort's "Woodstock" is a good example, changing the tone completely but pleasingly.

Did you read the tribute to her in this week's Guardian? A poor interview, I thought. She's really ill but fighting. There will be a gaping hole when she passes. I know so many people who say she has, at one time or another, saved their life by crystallising in her lyrics the same emotions as their own...so they don't feel alone.

Her name is Sierra Eagleson. She makes wonderful music with her brother. Youtube page below.

You're right about Joni. Her music has been with me forever.

This is good. I have played this over and over.

This is an emotional one. A street singer in Moscow is singing an Aerosmith song. He doesnt know, he doesnt know that Steven Tyler, Aerosmiths lead singer and his Girlfriend are passing by and are watching him from the crowd.
Tyler goes up and sings along with him. The Russian singer still doesnt seem to know that it is the real Aerosmith singer. And at the end of the song he still doesnt seem to know who the singer is.

This another emotional Aerosmith song. 2 songs actually, with Tyler on the Piano. Recorded live in Donnington in England.

This is it. This is how its done. This is whats missing in society nowadays. Forget the Stars, do it yourselves. Merveilleuse.

More of the same. After a while I noticed the Lady Statue photo-bombing on the plinth behind.

Excellent stuff Sunlight.

Very relevant at the moment with the orange fuckwit causing mayhem

Keith Floyd springs to mind with this one!

Stop name dropping! Were you investigating their tax records at the time?
