I read in the newspaper today that the Recording Industry Association of 
America announced Songs of the Century, and Joni's "Big Yellow Taxi" is 
listed.

The first paragraph reads:

"WASHINGTON, March 7, 2001 b The Recording Industry Association of America 
(RIAA) and The National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) announced today the 
bSongs of the Centuryb project, a nationwide education initiative intended 
to promote a better understanding of Americabs musical and cultural heritage 
in our schools."

See www.raii.com for the article and list of songs.

Unfortunately, when I click on the songs by rank it the page would not 
display, so maybe someone else might have better luck with it.

Way to go Joan!

Jimmy
