Then don't listen. Sad, but obviously true, that the anti-smoking agenda has even reached here.
My purpose was not to say Joni is "wrong" for smoking or to deliver any kind of anti-smoking message. Whether she smokes is none of my business. My purpose was simply to point out the obvious, because most of us are ignoring it -- her voice has crashed and burned and the reason is obvious. The truth must be told, but, not to worry, I won't burden ya'll any more with the truth. And, as said as it is to think (believe me, I find Joni's decline heartbreaking) that I might stop listening and become yet another fan who "used to buy Joni Mitchell albums," it may in fact happen. Peace (which begins with truth), Bryan
