Video Request, I thought black and white would suit it. I think it turned out well.

Janis Ian is one of the best singer

songwriters of the century. Her musical appeal spans generations. Saw her in Boston only a couple of years ago and she was FANTASTIC still!! She's simply wonderful!! I love this woman's sweet voice and her command of the audience. She's warm, witty, charming and terribly talented... for which I am, and always will be, truly grateful. So glad I got to meet

her in person after her show in Boston.

What a terrific lady she is!! :))

TO WRITE A WONDERFUL SONG LIKE AT SEVENTEEN SAYS SOMETHING ABOUT HER OF HOW TALANTED AND CLEVER JANIS IAN IS

I LOVE JANIS IAN SHE IS THE KIND OF ARTIST I CALL AN EMOTIONAL STORY TELLER SO TALANTED GREAT SINGER AND SONG WRITER I LOVE THIS KIND OF MUSIC I PUT JANIS IN THE SAME CATEGORY OF PEOPLE LIKE BRILLIANT LATE EVA CASSIDY I THINK IT TAKES A DEEP THINKING PERSON TO REALLY APPRECIATE THIS KIND OF MUSIC

I'm 57 and as big a Janis Ian fan as ever! When she sang 'At Seventeen' she sang about everyone, male and female, who were not the beautiful ones. I've never been touched by the music as much as when she has sung for it is like she is singing my life, and my feelings.

Me enamoré de Janis Ian yendo a casa de mi mejor amigo cuando tenía dieciséis o diecisiete escuchando en su tocadiscos Between de lines. Quizá yo también aprendí la verdad a los diecisiete.

Such a powerful song. I love love this album. It was one of my favourites when I was in high school in the 70's. Thanks so much for posting.

Such a wonderful LP it is a bit forgotten now days but ranks with those with the love of poetry & music as 1 of the best ever. This is such powerful song my oldest friend recently lost his wife & when we talk I hear Janis whispering this beautiful song in my mind. She says all the words he is trying to find. A powerful wonderful loving song that means so much to me. Thanks for posting

@VillasHampton We knew who she was, back in the day, Villas. Especially us songwriters. You can search my song, "Another Kind of Magic" Lauren Blaine if you'd like. Deedee O'Malley too. You can totally hear Janis' influence in Deedee's songs.

It's nice to find another appreciator such as yourself. Janis not only has depth, but she is brave enough to share it with us. Hat's off.

A genius ahead of her time. She has never received the recognition she deserves. An amazing woman-An amazing Artist, Poet, Musician.

@VillasHampton JMO but, Janis Ian like India.Arie, Tracy Chapman or Carole King, breath life into the words of their songs. Their music comes from their souls; from a place beyond gender or race. There's nothing contrived or artificial. Both are strong women who live life on their terms, not the expectations of others.

And I hope you're right: That "Between The Lines' is rediscovered, for its beauty and honesty.

She knew me at 17 , I've always loved Janis Ian. I guess I heard something in her music that others didn't , they let a wonderful woman and wonderful music pass.
