This is one that really gets me too. All those hard
/k/ sounds; and the way Joni's voice goes with it -
all this hard stuff, then "faaaaaaaaallll
[seductively] into Lady Release."
I find myself going "Me too" and "Oh, yeah", a lot in
reading everyone's favourites but can't think of a
durn one myself that someone else hasn't already
brought up. The woman is a genius and even though I
felt it, I don't think I ever really *realized* it
until joining this list.
Thanks, jmdlers - how nice to say "Joni Mitchell" and
be with people who are more likely to say "Yessss!!"
than "Who?" or "Isn't that the folk singer who sang
that paid paradise song?"
