"Chelsea Morning" - Joni (cover)

[agaskew]

Thank you such a lot for posting this. I really enjoyed your version, plus the quality of your video helped me to figure how to play this - though nothing like as well as you do. Nice work!

[minxafied]

@agaskew thank you! took me a while to be able to play it at all, so no worries! you'll get there!

[minxafied]

@lilymmae thank you!

[nickbigd]

I'm a lifelong Joni fan. I'm impressed, and I love the tempo! Wow!

[minxafied]

@nickbigd thanks for listening! :)

[profwaldo]

I've got a real good ear for music (can't play worth s**t tho) and I've been a Joni fan for over 40 years so I feel I can say with "some" authority at least, that this is Out-Standing !!! Truly an excellent rendition n' dang near spot on in guitar and vocally, perhaps even better than the original because of your stage presence and absence of Joni's "shrillness" at times. hehehe Straight to my fav's. Absolutely Lovely ! Thank You ! :-))

[minxafied]

@profwaldo Thank you Wally! I am speechless! Joni was one of my first inspirations and will always be among my favorites. I feel unworthy of any comparison but you definitely brought a huge smile to my face. so thank YOU. :)

[profwaldo]

@minxafied No doubt she'll remain my favorite female artist of all time, yes.

But hey, I just call 'em like I see's 'em. Or hears 'em in this case hahaha.

Let's just say ya' done good, ya' done real gal-dang dog-gone gosh-darn good. ;-))

[hellisla]

impresionante!!



[davidguilfoyle]

Someone joined my channel (which is gathering dust) which had a link to you. Your videos, especially this one, are very good indeed. Do you ever gig (in England)?

[minxafied]

@davidguilfoyle  thank you! i have only ever played on the US side of the pond :) but I love England and would love to play a little pub one day! :)

[jawpain58]

Love your voice, very genuine and pure.... have you tried my favorite Joni song "Help me" think you would do a great job!!!!

[minxafied]

@jawpain58 thank you! ill see if i can give it a shot! :)

[IngerAnna]

Great version!

[cadwalladee]

This looks like a pretty complicated song. (I would never attempt it) You have the right voice and skill on the guitar to do it. And it it is still wonderful! (just here getting my Ltan fix!... : )

[minxafied]

@cadwalladee you know, you might surprise yourself! the first time i picked up the chords for this song i couldn't do it. years later i picked it up again and voila! somehow i figured it out! :) thanks for coming back for a listen scott!

[geniegogo]

I have to give that a thumbs up ... sweet. XD

[minxafied]

@geniegogo thanks!

[schoolupstairs]

I like how you don't really simplify the guitar work and your voice gains some strength as the song goes on, really nice job!

[minxafied]

@schoolupstairs  thank you!

[PoconoSteve59]

My goodness girl, a great rendition..... Aces all the way... Thanks

[minxafied]

@PoconoSteve59 thank you for listening!

[minxafied]

@stmarysks thank you! :)

[loveguitars1]

Teriffic stuff!! Sounds great . . .

[Frankiarmz]

Wow! My daughter wants to learn to play this song and we found your performance. Amazing, you are point on with your guitar and what a great voice! You must have put a lot of work into this fantastic cover. Thanks and please keep playing.

[minxafied]

thank you so much for your kind words! so far this is the ONLY joni song i can play- but hopefully that will change! once i caught on to the strumming it was easier than i thought it would be. tell your daughter to hang in there! :)

[catchersmitt0]

You have a really nice presence and a very alluring voice. I'd really enjoy sitting in a coffee shop listening to you.

[minxafied]

you have no idea how happy your comment just made me. thank you so much! :)

[kenorian]

:-) Love it!!

[tobestill]

Really great rendition: both guitar and singing! congratulations!

[minxafied]

thanks tobestill! :)

[sinbarrerassoyasi]

Great Talent!

cheers

[goldhat3]

Very well done, this song is very difficult to play, let alone sing, and you did both well.

[alpet07]

Great cover of a wonderful song! :) Great strumming too - that's something that I find really tricky! lol. Everytime I hear this song I think how gorgeous the lyrics are.

[minxafied]

thanks so much holly! :)

[pteranodonfilms]

Great voice,,,,but, Joni is doing a sales job in this song. She's saying that on this most wonderful of all days PLEASE DONT LEAVE ME.

[rodalward]

great song,,you have a great voice

[ChrisUnblizz]

Awesome! Almost like Joni did it - the only thing that's missing is the "dee dee dee..." at the end..

[rudyvandam]

Very nice

[Tadek59]

Thanks for share jugnutgut2 !

[SW94929]

Wow! You took me right back there. Great job Lisa. I'd love to hear you do Carey and probably a bunch of others too.

[chuxtrux]

hi lisa, the sound is so good, may i ask what equipment you are using such as which mic and amp, any reverb or built in reverb or compression? also, is the guitar just room sound or lined in, or being picked up by the vocal mic? thanks, chuck.

[StatusIsNotQuo]

WOOOHOOOOOOO!!! I've been waiting for you to learn a Joni song, yay!! :D Beautiful!!

[minxafied]

snq, i knew you'd dig this one! :) thank you!

Joni is one of my favourite artists, and you've really done this justice... wonderful...5****...Mel

[Mic5of7]

WELL DONE!!! on all counts an excellent cover.thanks

[minxafied]

thanks mick!

[cadwalladee]

At first I thought - oh, no! only Joni can do Joni! And then: wait, this is LISA doing Joni... And sure enough, it's wonderful! I get the best of both! NIcely done.

[cadwalladee]

PS - I'm really liking the sound quality from your new set-up - you're coming in nice and clear!

[minxafied]

now you've gone and made me blush! :) thank you scott. (yeah the mic is great, it just takes a little more work to synch it with the video. the camera just won't accept a straight plug in. thus why they've been taking me longer. but itsallgood!)

[chuxtrux]

well this was a nice surprise! i also admire joni and always have at least one of her cd's in my car. you did a beautiful job as always. this has been my pleasure of the morning.  chuck.
