This song was my introduction to Joni. 1992, I was 11, and I sat in my uncles music den at his and my aunts farmhouse in North Wales. We sat and listened to Joni for hours. My mother came in and said it was late, which meant it was time for bed. As we tidied the den and put away the records (my uncle never left them out, back to their correct location at the end of each session), my uncle turned to me and said, "For Free. Make sure they play it my funeral". He never met Lana's music but I know he would have really liked her, especially this cover.
I slept last night in a good hotel I went shopping today for jewels The wind rushed around in the dirty town And the children let out from their schools I was standing on a noisy corner Waiting for the walking green Across the street he stood And he played real good On his clarinet for free Now me I play for fortunes And those velvet curtain calls I got a black Limousine and two gentlemen Who escort me through these halls And I'll play if you've got the money Or if you're a friend to me But the one man band By the quick lunch stand He's been playing real good for free Nobody stopped to hear him Though he played so sweet and high They knew he had never been on their TV So they passed his music by I meant to go over and ask for a song Maybe put on a harmony I heard his refrain As the signal changed He was playing real good for free
okay? older people like you are so strange, so protective and rude. its a cover, its not meant to be an exact replica. Just let people have fun, and live your miserable life in quiet.

That’s a beautiful memory 🎶❤️
Sweet Joni…😊
Jesus… her voice is so sweet and perfect! Lana is definitely one of the best singers of our generation. She sing with her soul ❤
I cant stress enough how underrated Chemtrails is
wow I love her voice in this one especially!
Her voice is incredible
THIS IS STUNNING
BEST SONG THANK YOU FOR FILMING THIS SO CLEAR💕💕💕
I'm impressed. She's got her ego in check, her timbre seems completely aligned with her soul, it's just touching how good she's gotten.
Thanks for posting!
I slept last night in a good hotel
I went shopping today for jewels
The wind rushed around in the dirty town
And the children let out from their schools
I was standing on a noisy corner
Waiting for the walking green
Across the street he stood
And he played real good
On his clarinet for free
Now me I play for fortunes
And those velvet curtain calls
I got a black Limousine and two gentlemen
Who escort me through these halls
And I'll play if you've got the money
Or if you're a friend to me
But the one man band
By the quick lunch stand
He's been playing real good for free
Nobody stopped to hear him
Though he played so sweet and high
They knew he had never been on their TV
So they passed his music by
I meant to go over and ask for a song
Maybe put on a harmony
I heard his refrain
As the signal changed
He was playing real good for free
Her voice is not normal 😭😭😭😭😭 I love
Beautiful ❤
That's how angels sing
🔥
Amazing
wow
lol the two of them are nowhere near joni mitchell's level of talent combined

This is a cover, she’s not trying to replicate Joni Mitchell
