      How wonderful that you like her, since clearly you are young, right? There's great music from all generations. But truly she has been wonderful, and so creative yet has remained humble. She's surprisingly, um, heavy here: but that's a privilege of getting old. She's So beloved. / Oops, I didn't know or had forgotten she had an aneurysm! Hard getting used to aging in someone I haven't seen recent images of. Have seen interviews, pictures when she's older but still from a decade or so ago.

    Her eyes are still so clear, bright, still so full of life . Joni's smoking took away so many more years we could have grown with her music. I would have loved to hear the music she would have written in these times. These last 10 years, so many of her peers continued performing....Crosby, Darrel Hall, James Taylor and many others. But she gave us enough music to ponder for a lifetime.

      Yes, she deserves a Nobel/Pulitzer as well! But anyhow, she's so wonderfully wise and modest: I remember her being upset at hearing that some of her songs were being taught in school, as some kind of literature or poetry, I guess. She was objecting, saying that's not substantial enough: concerned about the quality of education! She's right, too: how can quality creativity like hers occur if the quality of what goes in is diminished? (She and Bobby Z. were Both clearly well read.) Her modesty is So admirable, though!
