[cadre hanson]

and if it wasn't then we wouldnt hear it...so what point is it that you are making here..

[Lesley Moore]

Sorry if my remarks sounded too critical. Of course anyone can cover songs by other folks. I have a special fondness for the Joni version and how lovely her ringing voice makes her song reach heights of inspiration. I was wrong - like saying don;t do Beatles tunes I guess. It came out of the songwriter part of my brain, Mr. Blake.

Hey, everyone has their own opinion. Just because the Joni wrote the original doesn't mean we can't find this one better :) and that's perfectly okay, except for little shitheads bashing on Joni Mitchell.

[Dave Teves]

Whoa, I've been listening to this song for a year now and I just knew that this was a live recording!!

[MrYamoamo]

It still is a recording...

[Sarah Minchington]

Good cover

I love this song and I have heard many versions from Joni Mitchell as the way she has sung it at the beggining of her career was very different from later versions, all masterpieces. James Blake's cover is not better but not worse either, just different, incredibly touching (but you) and remarkably performed from a technical point of you. This is the only cover I put at same level as Joni Mitchell's.

poor boy, one day that voice will stop breaking, hang on in there.
