    Available Now: mercury-studios.lnk.to/JoniMi...
    Academy Award-Winning Director Murray Lerner (Mao To Mozart, Festival!) creates a masterful addition to the Isle of Wight canon of films with Joni’s excellent performance.
    The concert/documentary film features Joni Mitchell in a modern interview, explaining the events and her reactions. The complete performance is also intercut with vintage footage from the festival attendees and the promoters to give better context to Joni’s personal recollections from the Isle of Wight in what is one of the most unique and memorable performances of the era.

    52 years later, young Joni Mitchell will realize her most emotional rendition of this song at Newport. Life is beautiful at 26, only to know how precious it is at 78. Life is good to have Joni Mitchell, thank you so much.

      I was 12 in 1970, now 64 to her 78 in 2022; it feels so very weird, surreal. I miss those days, the great music, the quieter nonviolent times compared to the insanity today. I would not want to be 12 or 20 today and I hate the music but I miss yesterday.

    I have no words whenever I hear her play, so I'll just list the things that shock and move and leave me in awe in her:
    - chord arrangements, melodies out of this world;
    - her unique guitar playing suited for her genius alternative tunings; her piano arrangements;
    -learning to play the dulcimer like no other at her time and making it a thing of tremendous beauty ('a case of you', amirite?);
    - the beautiful pictures she paints in people's minds with her precise and incisive words;
    - her beautiful ethereal, happy and mournful voice.
    The fact that she is physically stunning is not even relevant when faced with this level of genius.
    And the fact that she's a painter first? She's just too much. We just have to be thankful for everything she's shared with us and try to learn a little from it, and try and steer this world towards a better, gentler place - which I think is her greatest desire in creating her music.
    So, thank you sweet Joni for all. May you live until 120!

    The way Joni's voice rose and her face lit up at "to say I love you right out loud" is sublime. It is as though for a moment she channels all the joy and boundless optimism of a bygone age. The same line stood out for me in the 2022 Newport rendition, sung now with a richness and depth that is beyond words. The memories of such innocent, spontaneous and carefree expressions are more distant now yet somehow as imminent as ever.

      @@Oshiiiiiiiiiiii Yes, you are so right. When I think of both my grandparents who lived through WW1 and my parent's WW2 when young adults compared to my time in the 60s and 70s, I was blessed and very lucky. Even so, both my grandparents and parents did look back of their youth with much fondness, their many friends and their music at that time especially romance and feminity of women. I really try to be objective as oppose being bias to my time but even so, I do truly believe the 60s and the 70s in all of history was the best time ever to be young and alive, especially our music. After working in industry I went on to be a Maths Teacher for 14 years and to reward pupils I would play two of their records and two of mine if they worked hard. For the many classes, all age groups, after a few weeks they would ask me to play my music. Also, here on TH-cam, I find more and more, TH-camrs showing absolute awe and wonder as they listen to the music of our time, thus realizing how good it was.

    I stumbled across this video, after watching Joni Mitchell perform this song at the 2024 Grammy’s on tv. Not knowing the name of the song (or much about Joni Mitchell), hearing the original got me in the same way the slowed-down version did tonight.

    When the crowd (section of crowd actually) applauded, Joni Mitchell's face showed a priceless hint of pride. Joni you have everything to be profoundly proud of. In conventional sense of beauty, Joni Mitchell looks her best in this concert IMHO. Also IMHO, Joni Mitchell is the most beautiful soul regardless of gender or age. A true and complete legend by any standards. I am so proud to be a great fan of hers.

    Rows and flows of angel hair
    And ice cream castles in the air
    And feather canyons everywhere
    I've looked at clouds that way
    But now they only block the sun
    They rain and snow on everyone
    So many things I would have done
    But clouds got in my way
    I've looked at clouds from both sides now
    From up and down and still somehow
    It's cloud's illusions I recall
    I really don't know clouds at all
    Moons and Junes and ferries wheels
    The dizzy dancing way you feel
    As every fairy tale comes real
    I've looked at love that way
    But now it's just another show
    You leave 'em laughing when you go
    And if you care, don't let them know
    Don't give yourself away
    I've looked at love from both sides now
    From give and take and still somehow
    It's love's illusions I recall
    I really don't know love at all
    Tears and fears and feeling proud,
    To say "I love you" right out loud
    Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
    I've looked at life that way
    But now old friends they're acting strange
    They shake their heads, they say I've changed
    Well something's lost, but something's gained
    In living every day.
    I've looked at life from both sides now
    From win and lose and still somehow
    It's life's illusions I recall
    I really don't know life at all
    I've looked at life from both sides now
    From up and down, and still somehow
    It's life's illusions I recall
    I really don't know life at all
