I saw this in the movie theater and couldn’t help but stand and clap. I then self- consciously remembered where I was only to realize that half the audience was doing the same. The sound quality of the video does not do it justice but still I listen to it over and over again. Joni wrote the song and gave it to Seal. What a worthy recipient.
I was in the theatre watching Joni Mitchell's 75th birthday celebration. I was enjoying it and then Seal went on stage to sing Both Sides Now. I was so moved with his rendition, his sensitivity and feeling every word just gave me goosebumps. My fave song of the show. He deserved the standing o he got for that performance.
I thought I'd come here whilst my eyes are still moist. It's a musical manifestation of the old adage, "the more you learn the less you know". The taste of my tears are bittersweet. Having listened to this song since I was in my single digits. Singing it in a boy's soprano to hearing Seal's approvable rendition. It somehow adds up to a sweet 61, absent the bitters. Are you sure it isn't 16, now that I'm "free from the devil's bargain." Only Jesus holds the keys. Green pastures, and still waters.
What a wonderful performance! Of all the performances of Joni's songs that evening, this one really stood out for me. Amazing sensitivity for the song. Bravo Seal!
I had the good luck to view Joni 75 on a big screen during the one night only premiere. The musical tributes were outstanding, but for me, it was Seal's rendition of Joni's "Both Sides Now" that transfixed me to the point that I clapped out loud after his performance. I didn't care if I was the only one who cheered, and people turned to see me. Then, after seeing the video of this evening on PBS twice here in Vancouver, Canada, Seal's stunning delivery brought me to tears. Tears of regret, or perhaps tears of joy for realizing the power, beauty and truth of Joni's words, I thank both of these gifted artists for the beauty they have brought into my life!
This is powerful beyond words. Despite trying to keep that stalwart front, there's reasons to falter and misstep. This is the inner view that can't always be shown to family & friends.
I've always enjoyed listening to Seal sing, he is my all-time favorite with his amazing voice! And this is a beautiful rendition of one of my favorite Joni Mitchell songs! God Bless You Seal! xoxoxo
@@jackiehylton7305 Sadly, they're didn't close the tribute / Birthday Show with "This Flight Tonight", Which is one of my alltime favorites, Not in the original Version, But in the Rock Version by "Nazareth". They had it a hit with it and Joni thanked them in Person for bringing the song to success.
This is a very important and profound song by Joni Mitchell. This version of Seal is really amzing. Joni must have been proud of him. Thank you Joni and of course Seal for this interpretaion. ps: and the band is great with no doubt.
Seal had the best performance that night. Same as Cyndi Lauper did when she sang Carey years ago in a tribute show to Joni. Search UA-cam for it; it's still posted as of this date.
What a pristine rendition!!! Feeling love and sentimental for that time in my life when the sublime genius of Joni mesmerized and captivated me, and led me ever so beautifully from my classical music studies into an entire new realm...
Joni wrote a lot of amazing music and so many beautiful songs and poetry...gee... it's so difficult, sometimes, to pick one up from her vast and brilliant repertoire... but then... I listen to this song... and everytime the search seems to be magically over... This song is "something else", really, do you agree all you folks? Something else... I was in my teens when listened for the first time to the Blue album, still have my original 33 LP copy in a plastic sleeve, to be protected... that moment, that day, music changed in my heart, forever. Thank you dear Joni, thank you for all the beauty you put in my life. I love you.
Why didn't You add the view of this performance? Pls DO ask Mr Seal to include this specific version in his channel. A treasure of the Century, him, the song, the composer, the musicians.. a magnificent expression of Art. 🙏 From Buenos Aires, ❤️.
Ok, this was an incredible peformance by Seal, but this version has been horribly ‘autotuned’ (like Madonna at Eurovision). Watch one of the untuned live video clips. It is so much more emotive. ua-cam.com/video/ow243lFepzM/v-deo.html

Thank you, Joni. Thank you, Seal.
Two brilliant artists... I am so thankful to share the same planet with them.
@@thebizzybuddies5647 Yes. They each have met their calling.
I never would have thought of Seal singing this song, but he really nails it.
nails it totally. so moving and intensely beautiful.......

I felt the exact same way. This was one of the best performances in a show of many great performances.
So amazingly beautiful...a song to a Sealgull 😉🤩😍👏👏👏
Seal put me in a sentimental mood while thinking of Joni Mitchell.
And a BIG bravo to Seal... You made me cry again, my friend, very very very good job, thank you.
Best part of the concert by far. What a stunningly emotional rendition that more than does justice to the original.

Tears in my eyes. This is outstanding en goes directcly to my soul and heart.
This is powerful beyond words. Despite trying to keep that stalwart front, there's reasons to falter and misstep. This is the inner view that can't always be shown to family & friends.

I heard that Jon personally asked Seal to sing that touching song ❤️

Oh how I love this

Wow
Amo Te Amo Te amo te amo te amo te amo te
Am I the only one who don't like Seal's version? Joni's rendition with Vince Mendoza arrangement is second to none!
Can someone put the other musicians on the this song?
Te adoro amo ati amo ati amo ati bb
Wow she sounds so different. But it works
Yes, her voice is so much deeper due to the decades of cigarette smoking.
I swore this was Nina Simone when I heard it on the radio. Uncanny.
trish perhaps you never really listened to Nina Simone, nothing like her
I wouldn't have mistaken one for the other, but now you mention it I can really hear some similarities.
Ok, this was an incredible peformance by Seal, but this version has been horribly ‘autotuned’ (like Madonna at Eurovision). Watch one of the untuned live video clips. It is so much more emotive.
ua-cam.com/video/ow243lFepzM/v-deo.html
Madonna had some other music adventures as well. She also had done film soundtracks.
That’s not autotuned at all.
