coffee shop rock....nazareths version way better....joni is a wonderfull singer and song writer though...you just have to be in the mood for it

@bozo47p

see , thats the way i think of Naz's version ... to me , it's just 'okay' , nothing special , just them playing a good song well.

however joni's version , to me , make you feel like shes sharing herself , not just words. i FEEL the song when joni sings it .

@MusicForYourFunk Have you listened to the acoustic version by Nazareth? 1000x better than this version and Nazareth's studio version combined. It's perfect.

@tpoppapuff

blasphemy !!!

Wow, I always thought it went 'cant' talk to you, baby, I get so weak, sometimes I think love is just physical'. But here it's obviously 'mythical'. Live and learn. Both fit and physical seems to follow from the 'weak' reference.

[MusicForYourFunk]

i could be wrong about this , but i think this is one of those cases where the singer/songwriter switches up on words sometimes when doing live concerts .

hope you enjoyed it :)

Canada's national treasure...

You either like the folk version or the rock version,or maybe both joni and naz both exceptional artists in their own right.

@bozo47p It's just a genre thing: you don't like the genre. Most people like both versions because they are powerful expressions, but in different styles.

[blakedawg76]

@bozo47p I love Naz, and still do but I can't listen to their version anymore after hearing this, and I thought theirs was amazing for many years. They do great covers thought, and Dan is one of the all time greats

Okay, I like Nazareth's cover of this song, it's a groovy track and they did a good job with making it their own. However, I feel the emotion in Joni Mitchell's original, which I think draws me in from a different angle than the angle Nazareth's version does. I don't compare which is better, as they are both so very different approaches to the song.

@bozo47p Nazareth!! Jesus Christ...if you'll pardon the pun.

I blows my mind that heavy metal bands cover Joni's songs.  She's just that damned bad!

when Joni Mitchell heard the Naz-Cover of her song the first time, she coudnt believe it was a real rocksong. She was very happy about the success (she got fat cheques) and said: from now, its a Naz Song . . .

And yes, Naz liked her song as she did it, cause they hear all kinds of good music. And when they piced up one song to perform it, they transformed it always to someting that really rocks :-)
