Yeah I heard that version before I even knew who Joni Mitchell was (what a
thought). Didn't think much of it at all and still don't. LOTC version is
the definitive for me but Eva Casidy's version sounds nice. I like the
guitar.

Yeah, I said to my friend at work that I like Joni Mitchell and the first
thing he said to me was 'have you heard of Melanie?'. I hadn't so he played
me a record. The first thing I did was laugh. I now like a few songs by her
('Tuning My Guitar' and 'Babe Rainbow') but no she isn't quite in the same
league. LOL.
