    I thought this was a touching tribute for Joni. She commented once that, "People have forgotten how to honor...". I hope in this case she felt honored. We love you, Joni!

    It's heart-warming to hear President Joe Biden speak so authentically about Joni's contribution to music. And it looked to me that Joni was so excited to be honored in this way. I have been a huge fan of Joni's ever since "Song to a Seagull", her first album. Thank you Joni!!!!!

    It's lovely to see Joni being honored in this way. She's clearly an icon. It's also nice to have a president who can speak, and understands an artist like Joni, instead of thinking that a 10 yr old girl who twirls a baton, tap dances, and sings a song from Annie is something we want to see. Thank God Dolt 45 is gone. But let's get back to Joni. She's unparalleled and I love her so much.

    "Don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you got 'til it's gone, they've paved paradise put up a parking lot..." people will be listening & playing Joni centuries from now, marveling @ her sonic creative interplay that reaches deep into the river of humanity and love, while also touching on our collective blindness. The fact that a sitting president acknowledges the importance her lifetime achievement in the arts gives us hope! Great music unites and invites diversity of perspective, and inspires us to reflect on our lives, rather than to label and dismiss. Joni tastes so bitter, yet so sweet & is in my blood like holy wine!

    So happy for Joni. He mid 70s music just blew me away. Hejira, Don Juan's, and so many others. I I've with a girl who hated her music but I didn't care. I played it endlessly.

    Thank God that was Biden giving this speech, and not the last guy. I don’t know if my brain or soul would’ve been able to handle that. I probably would’ve had a breakdown.

      The "last guy" is incapable of saying anything as articulately and authentically as Joe Biden did. I couldn't help think that as I listened to Joe.

    I am no fan of joe Biden, and I do not want to get political, but trump could never do this. Because as Joni’s friend Leonard Cohen said “but you don’t really care for music, you ya?”
