[surfdays1]

You are a gifted musician. Keep up the great work!

[RevelingInReverie]

@surfdays1 Thank you very much :)

[barakpick]

its obvious you love this song

[RevelingInReverie]

@barakpick I do, indeed.

[grumpsaplenty]

Oh my word!! Your voice gave me chills!

[RevelingInReverie]

@grumpsaplenty Thanks for listening!

[steelydrwu]

Beautiful, it's not easy doing Miss Mitchell and you've done her proud. 74 Court and Spark 75 Hissing of summer lawns, imagine buying these when they came out and putting them on for the first time. These memories give me strength to go on. Thank You.

[Porsche997C4S1]

Wow....Great job!

[cclarke1804]

Awesome job! It's great (but rare) to hear someone do justice to Joni.

[RevelingInReverie]

@cclarke1804 Thanks so much! I'm honored you think so.

[key2kingdom]

just dropping by to hear this wonderful interpretation again x

[vserra]

Beautiful. Is that an open tuning?

[RevelingInReverie]

@vserra Thank you. I'm not sure what kind of tuning it is to tell you the truth. :) I don't think it's considered an open tuning, though.

[bigalli100]

great song and your voice is infectious,so much tallent on youtube.keep it up.thanks

[drJarv]

awesome, awesome... i'd love to hear you with some decent acoustics rather than singing in a cupboard!

Peeeaaaaace.

[RevelingInReverie]

@drJarv I'd love to have a space that provided good acoustics. Ah well, cupboard it is! ;)

Thanks for listening!

[KYANEmusic]

you are clandestine....it ain't easy songsister to pull off joni....well done....

[RevelingInReverie]

@KYANEmusic Thanks for such a fabulous compliment! (from one Karen to another!)

[KYANEmusic]

@RevelingInReverie

you got it, stay in revery...you so have it...hey if you are ever in wi...we have a fabulous music based cafe "paradigm" that features national singer songwriters....and just for fun i have 4 videos "Kyane Howland" "Mmm" is a song I wrote and then made my first video, it's not as beautiful direct as yours, I rely on passionate shennangins and shopping carts!

[RevelingInReverie]

@KYANEmusic Indeed! If I ever pass through from maine, I'll stop on by. :) And I actually prefer passionate shenanigans and shopping carts to boring and direct.

p.s. The video with your kids (I presume) is adorable, too!

[casualgiraffe]

Stunning! You ought to get into a studio! This deserves a great recording :)

[RevelingInReverie]

@casualgiraffe Thanks so much for listening

[pilgrimsoultoo]

excellent! thanks for posting! "i got a head full of quandary..."

[RevelingInReverie]

@pilgrimsoultoo Thank you so much! :)

[egroj666]

I'm going to become in your fan number one; in fact i can say I'm a RevelingInReverie person. hahaha ;-)..

[RevelingInReverie]

@egroj666 haha! :) Thanks so much!!

[raoulrazer]

Nice interpretation.

Magic like Joni Mitchell herself.

[RevelingInReverie]

@raoulrazer Thanks so much for listening!

[jimano1969]

It's been about a year since I first heard this video so I had to stop by for a fix.. I hope you don't mind, I "shared" this on my FB page.

I just love your music and this song has long been a favorite of mine.... as I posted when I first heard you, not many singers have the empathy necessary to do justice to some of Joni's music... you have it in abundance as you do on the other songs you have posted. I hope all is well with you.

Btw.... what kind of guitar is that? It's beautiful.

[RevelingInReverie]

@jimano1969 No, I don't mind the FB share at all.  Glad you revisited the song! My guitar is a custom Telecaster. She's a beauty! :)

[tps607]

Not many people can match Joni's exuberance or swoopy style...or have the vocal ability....fewer still even try. Karen...you hit it dead-on...this is heaven! *****

[RevelingInReverie]

@tps607 Greatest compliment ever, Tom! Thank you so much!

[tps607]

@RevelingInReverie Just striving for truth and accuracy...lol

[RevelingInReverie]

@tps607 Well, with a compliment like that....strive away!! ;) haha

[tps607]

@RevelingInReverie I would soon run out of superlatives if I continue...I have a limited vocabulary....let me find the thesaurus ....

[loveguitars1]

Brilliant, Karen!! . . . Absolutely Brilliant!! . . . Well done, mate!!

Take care,

John

[RevelingInReverie]

@loveguitars1 Thanks so much, John! :)

[dunndirtcheap]

Karen - picked up a set of Phil Rudd (ac/dc) signature drums with Zildjian and Paiste cymbals, today was my first jamming in 30 years! Hands are fine legs are lagging a bit. You are one of the oddly eclectic tube musicians that provided the encouragement for my return to music. (joedrums2112) jreichbart (xxdan57xx) paulgordenmanners and croation rockers Gruhac. THANKS! YOU ROCK!!

[gore53]

Wow! That's all I can say (lie). I have more. This album (yes, album), on vinyl (yes, vinyl) was an absolute favorite of mine, played incessantly and listened to with great fervor and intensity over a long ago summer ('76) up in Denver. Initially, to be truthful, I wasn't up to hearing a cover of something I held so dear. But hey, you had me at 'Don't. In fact, I said do. You made it your own. Nice... very nice, indeed.

[RevelingInReverie]

@gore53 What a fantastic compliment. Thank you! Some artists are untouchable, and Joni Mitchell is in that category. Big sigh of relief that I didn't make your ears bleed. ;) ha ha. Thanks for taking a chance and listening!

[dunndirtcheap]

Hey Songbird - started my weekend with a nicely chilled draft and another listen. You brought a lot to this tune - a joy to hear. Plus i like your the way your earrings sway. Lovely voice thanks.

[RevelingInReverie]

@dunndirtcheap Hope you're having a lovely weekend!

[cooksterz]

Ah your voice is a joy to listen to. big applause!

[RevelingInReverie]

@cooksterz Thank you so much!

[dunndirtcheap]

Passionately played, and you look radiant on this one. It probably feels pretty good when you know you hit it "just right." Good start to my weekend -thanks -and don't worry i'm not gonna park outside your house and stalk you. Just glad to hear this, most folks have forgotten this magical creative era.

[RevelingInReverie]

lol :) Thanks again!

[dunndirtcheap]

Can't believe other fans haven't listened but thats ok I'm enjoying your sights and sounds immensely. Wonderful expression thanks for sharing.

[RevelingInReverie]

I'm glad at least someone is enjoying it! :)

[dunndirtcheap]

Had your lovely singing with my morning coffee. A great start. Noticed how playing this tune seems to lift your own spirits, your face is kind of lit up. Must be one of your favorites, thanks for sharing.

[RevelingInReverie]

It's a fun song to play. Joni's music is so infectious. It's hard not to have a good time.

[AntonelloBrunetti]

Awesome! Thank u to share it :)

[RevelingInReverie]

Thanks for listening!

[ageofguitarz]

Thats very cool

[RevelingInReverie]

@ageofguitarz Thank you!

[dunndirtcheap]

These joni tunes are not the easiest-nice job. I remember how her Shadow and Light was like an aural painting. From Summer Lawns, I think. That had to be before your time, for sure.

[RevelingInReverie]

I love Joni Mitchell. I think her music is timeless.

[hotfirecaster]

Dear Karen,

Joni Mitchell's albums are my closest companions, and you did a great cover of one of my favorite artist ever.

Congrats!

Chris

[RevelingInReverie]

I love Joni, as well. She's definitely one of my inspirations.

[sonnenberg]

Great! I'd never dream of attempting Joni of that vintage! That album sure kicked my ass when it came out!

[RevelingInReverie]

Ha ha :) Thanks Paul. I'm thinking it kicked me around a bit, too!

[bookcartpeddlerny]

Very nice piece of work. Thank you!

[RevelingInReverie]

No, thank you!

[jimmymac30]

Magnificent!

[Klangclinic]

Great Voice !!

[RevelingInReverie]

Thanks for listening!

[1heavygold]

I'm not certain if it's 'you are getting better', or, 'I'm liking you more'. Whichever, I LOVE how you give your all with every song!!! Brilliant cover, love the lyrics!! 5*****

[RevelingInReverie]

It's a Joni Mitchell song. What's not to like! :) (unless the person who covers it does a terrible job. ha ha!)

[Escagedo3rd]

Great song....Great playing and vocals!

[RevelingInReverie]

Thank you, Escagedo3rd!

[TeyPunsalanFansite]

5 star! Excellent singing!

I'm going to put this on my Playlist on the channel too. :)

[Deadkurtrulz]

Lovely. Well done. One of my favorite cuts from one of my favorite Joni albums. I'm very impressed with the weird tuning and your playing. Her song structures are very unique to her but you cover her well. Thanks for posting this - great job!

[RevelingInReverie]

Thanks so much. It was a fun song to cover :)

[Deadkurtrulz]

You're darn right!

[vanu49]

Unlike Pianols-whats-his-name, I'll hope to hear more from your Tele. (lol) Im kinda jealous!!!

[RevelingInReverie]

LOL :) PianoIs.. is a friend of mine. We give each other a hard time.

[vanu49]

LOL, Alright!!!Well maybe I'll join the club, so fasten your seatbelt. hahaha!!

[RevelingInReverie]

Ha! bring it on then! :)

[PianoIsTheRemedy]

I'll interrupt the sorry with joy whenever I please.

[RevelingInReverie]

You'd better heed Joni's advice, fool! ;)

[PianoIsTheRemedy]

That is bizarre tuning.

[vanu49]

Well Reveling......, thats the best advice I ever read!!!!!!Hahahaha!!!!

[jimano1969]

Very wonderful... It's so delightful to hear someone who "gets" Joni's music and can interpret it well. You do both. Have you tried "Cold Blue Steel" or "Electricity"? I'll have to subscribe to your work so I don't miss any of it. Thanks for sharing your gift with us.

[RevelingInReverie]

Thanks for such a kind comment! Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for subscribing, too! :)

[kemplerbrave]

You are so welcome. I love hearing you sing.

Doug

[Carlfgauge]

Great Singin and Playin ..I Like that Guitar too!!!

[RevelingInReverie]

Thanks, Carl!

[vazquezalva]

[RevelingInReverie]

all the best to you

[Denzhy]

Amazed by your voice again!

Just so honest and real, I love that!

[Brothersun86]

Fantastic Karen, as always! well done! you do Joni so much justice

[RevelingInReverie]

Thanks, Gary!

[Brothersun86]

you are more than welcome, I love you doing Joni, I love you doing everything actually :)

[spiralarch]

The tele looks nice and sounds great, as do you once again.  :o)

Never heard this song before. Interesting tuning - sounds like Joni may have used this or a similar tuning for some of her other songs. I think hear fragments of her other stuff in there.

Anyway - 5 stars again...keep cranking 'em out!

[RevelingInReverie]

I definitely think Joni has used this tuning for several of her songs. I love my tele....just wish I could play her better! :)

[rainsong6]

You are so good at this!

[RevelingInReverie]

Hey Brian! Thank you, my friend :)

[kemplerbrave]

Hey Karen,

I love this one also. Such good playing and singing. That song is made for you and you are so sweet singing it hon. Keep it up!! :)

Doug

[RevelingInReverie]

Thanks, Doug. Always appreciate you stopping by!

[HDenBlues]

Hi sweet Karen,

always great to hear and see something new from you ;-)))

This is realy beautyful !!!*****

Great performance !!!

And a new guitar, i guess, a beauty...

Lots of kisses,

Kurt !!!

[RevelingInReverie]

I think my tele is a beauty, too :) Thanks Kurt!

[HDenBlues]

Yes, sure is and sounds great too ;-)))

xxx Kurt !!!

[MegsDad64]

[RevelingInReverie]

[RevelingInReverie]

Hey Rick,

Thanks for taking time to listen

[amccann7]

Awesome singing, playing & interpretation Karen!

[RevelingInReverie]

Hi Amy! Thank you so much ;)

[giuseppe114]

sexy!!

[RevelingInReverie]

Thank you **blush** :)

[khashayar44]

This is just mesmerizingly beautiful! I have been watching and listening to this for the past two hours. Your performances perfectly fit the definition of music by Beethoven: Music should strike fire from the heart of man, and bring tears from the eyes of woman.

[RevelingInReverie]

I'm humbled by such a wonderful comment, Kash. Thank you so much!

[classican]

How good are you Karen? I'll tell you. Incredibley good!!! Excellent cover my friend!!!!

[RevelingInReverie]

Thanks Pete!  Fun Creep cover, btw. You made me smile :)

[tomhardyband]

very good! 5 stars!!!!!

[RevelingInReverie]

Thanks for the stars :)

[Maor255]

it' a lovely song, very well done !

[RevelingInReverie]

Thank you!

[key2kingdom]

What a wonderful surprise! This awaited me on my return from Glastonbury (town not festival). Have you noticed how "I'm leaving on the 1:15" is almost exactly at 1:15? That adds a little more magic to a cover that's full of magic already. Many thanks for contributing this beautiful interpretation.

[RevelingInReverie]

Hey Steve,

Hope I did the song justice. Sorry it took so long to get it done! Thanks for asking me to do it.

I hope Glastonbury was lovely :)

[key2kingdom]

You did a lovely job, thanks Karen. Glastonbury was great as always - lucky with the weather - the sun was smiling :o)

[hotfirecaster]

Hi Karen,

I'm back in the 70's listening to this one. Great job, as usual!

Have a good day,

From the sunny side of the pound.

Chris

[RevelingInReverie]

Hi Chris,

I have to say, I hadn't heard this song before Steve requested it. It's a pretty cool tune :)

[PHONE275]

"Wonderful" Simply "wonderful.

[RevelingInReverie]

Thanks for always stopping by! I appreciate it! :)

[PHONE275]

you just try and stop me !!!!! always look forward to your vids, you have real talent, thankyou.

[EstebanMigui]

We are so lucky. One superb original and two terrific covers...in only one month !

'Don't Interrupt' seems so difficult and you made it with a lot of talent. This playlist will become a hit.

Can we hope 'River' for the next session ?

With your voice and sensibility, you'll make the perfect cover.

Anyway, thanks for all these gifts.

Bye,

Sébastien

[RevelingInReverie]

Thanks Sebastien. I'm tabling Joni for a little bit. I have some other projects I want to work on, but "River" will make a debut at some point. You can count on it! :)

[jugnutgut2]

I bet there aren't many who could pull this off, you not only pulled it off, you were brilliant! You're hot stuff Karen! :)

[RevelingInReverie]

Watch out! Don't get burned! ;) lol

thanks Rob!

[guitar62751]

Awesome cover, Karen !

Stu

[RevelingInReverie]

Thanks for listening, Stu!

[guitar62751]

I wish I could sing that good.

Not as high as you though.

You know being a guy. LOL

I'm okay singing the blues though.

[Johnfern99]

Excellent cover!

[RevelingInReverie]

Thanks John!

[DAVIDDAMIENR]

Excellent

DDR

[RevelingInReverie]

Thanks David!

[Powderfinger07]

I'm in complete agreement with vanu49! That chord progression @ the 0:18 mark reminds me of Lawyers Guns and Money.

Oh and btw, you look good in green.

[RevelingInReverie]

Thanks powder! It was fun to start playing her again.

[imborn2perform]

niiiice.

[RevelingInReverie]

Thanks, Emma :)

[vanu49]

Wow Karen, your beautiful Tele!!!!!

Well played, well sang. 'luv it!!!

[RevelingInReverie]

Thanks! Yes, she finally makes her grand reappearance :)
