This is a tribute to the great Joni Mitchell
Her music is so melodic and inspiring!
Lyrics:
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 illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all
Moons and Junes and Ferris 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 are 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

Joni Mitchell, Our Canadian Icon,s Best Song in my View!! Released in 1966, and has been Sung by Many Young People like yourself, Emily! This beautiful Song is still relevant after 56 yrs, and You did a Great Rendition as always! I know a lot of People would agree with me that the 60's and 70's Music was the Best Music in a General sense as the Song writing back then was so Elegant and relatable to us Teens growing up! I love to hear your Generation take hold of this Music and make it your Own!! Thanks for Doing this Cover!
Joni Mitchell was about your age when she got started. Your voice is so beautiful, I wish you great success on KZread.

Always a pleasure to hear you dear Emily...Thanks for this beautiful Song
Joni Mitchell one of the true greats and you do such a beautiful job on this super iconic song. Your voice just keeps getting better and nice guitar work 👏💕😘
Now you've done it, you're makin' me cry. That was beautiful.
I sadly admit I had left behind this great artist, Joni Mitchell, and many more from that time. I find as I live my waning years that I am returning back to the music that I listened to all the time when I was a teenager. Thanks, Emily, for singing another song from "my" past as well as others. You've unintentionally by singing songs from my youth helped me return to a place in my life that was simple and where I was always happy. The way you sing this song was so special to me. Thank You
Very nice. Comments in Russian, German, Spanish, English, Portuguese, and who knows what else. That says a lot.
Love this........ sounds great. ❤❤❤... Toss this on a 60s stations and I bet you some people would not tell the difference between Joni and this angel
The quintessential folk-rock tune; you have the wisdom to display its beauty in a simplistic way. Perfect! Thank you.

So heartening to see the world still has some real musical talent. No autotune - just an amazing voice. Thanks Emily.
You’re so amazing Em. You know I grew up in Canada, and Joni was the queen of the airwaves. I have always loved her, and you did this perfectly. It’s been covered by others, but you know that nobody can hold a candle to you as far as I’m concerned. My little songbird, you always just go straight into my heart, and touch my soul. No other musician in my lifetime has had that effect on me. This was beautiful Em, and the incredible smile as a finale was awesome! 💕♾🌹🫶🌹🌹🌹🌹👏👏👏👏 Thanks to your mum for her behind the scenes work in the studio. She always gets you in the right light, and video. I hope she is fully recovered now. She’s always in my prayers.🌹🌹🌹🌹👏👏👏👏Thanks too, to Elvis Garagic for the excellent mix. 👏👏👏👏🌹🌹🌹🌹

That must have been awesome!
Joni Mitchell wrote the song, when she was 23 years old. Yet the thoughtful song's life wisdom has made it stand the test of time. According to her, she wrote it after reading a book by Sol Blue, while she was on the plane. "I was reading 'Henderson the Rain King,'" she told the Los Angeles Times, "and the hero was on the plane, and I was on the plane too. He looks down and sees clouds and I also looked down and saw clouds. I put the book down and started writing the song right away." You performed the song in a charming way and your interpretation of the song is excellent. rise and succeed
I really enjoyed the song (again). Thank you!
I know many comments have and will be about singing. This is top shelf rhythm playing. Emily is certainly an exquisite singer but what I feel is that this sometimes obscures just how good an instrumentalist she is.

Joni Mitchell music is distictive, melodious, meaningful and nostalgic. I knew you'd cover her vocal range well ... more please, Emily. 👍👍
Wow! Reminds me of when Judy Collins sang this. Nice job Emily!!
Another Amazing song..and You always make it Your own and alot of times You sound better than the original..Raw talent..You are like Elvis You can sing anything and always make it Your own..You were born to do this no doubt about it AWSOME..👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hope Joni sees and appreciates this cover, Emily! You do such wonders with your voice and guitar, and the fact that you're so young makes your assertions that you don't really know clouds, love, or life at all that much more believable, despite the fact you perform with the assurance of someone twice your age. Love that smile at the end!

Totaly agree with the comments … your voice somehow has hard wired Joni Mitchell voice. Staggering!! Don’t ever stop! continue to do Joni Mitchell songs plus others you like. You should find your own place and space in the musical world.
Big Yellow Taxi next!!!
Wow Emily really good. Joni Mitchell would be really impressed. Sounds Great !!
As a child of the late 60s and early 70s, I love your covers of this music. "I Think I Love You." Seriously, the 1970s Partridge Family (US TV Show) Classic, would be a great cover for you.
Joni Mitchell a home grown musical prodigy, this song is definitely a favourite. In my 70 years on this life journey I have never heard this classic song sung more beautifully!!! Thank you so very much Emily.💕💕💕
Emily , Your singing and guitar playing are impeccable I love this song thank you so much always finish your performance with a lovely smile couldn’t be better that was awesome 👏👏👍👍❤️❤️🎸🎸🎤🎤
Beautiful song, Beautiful Girl; nobody does it better than you.

One of my favourite meaningful songs ... Nice job, Emily.
Emily, that was fantastic! I grew up listening to that song on the radio. Hadn't heard it for a long time, and had forgotten all about it. You brought it back to life for me. Thank You!
👏Bravo, one of your best covers yet, love it. Angelic.
Joni Mitchell is one of those unique female vocalist/writer that's very difficult to cover, yet you nailed it. Brad did a good job of summing things up, so I would just like to echo his comments. Emily you are very special and have such a joyous effect on people. God bless you!!!!
You always bring me to tears with your song choices, Thank You.
I first found you 2 years ago when you did a collaboration with Sina, covering "Morning Has Broken" and I absolutely loved your voice. Since then there have been others that I thought were very well done, but being older and having grown up listening to Joni, this one touched me, and made me emotional. Your voice is so well suited for her music. I wish you the best, and hope to hear more of this style of songs, but will support you as much as I can no matter what you sing. Well done young lady, well done.

Pur song. Pur cover. Thank you Emily Linge
From Joni Mitchell, Sarah McLachlan, Bryan Adams, to The Weeknd and Tate McRae, love it whenever singers from the quaint and rustic little land called Canada are covered. And I have to join the chorus of requests for a third cover (after River and Both Sides Now) of Joni Mitchell, hopefully some time in the near future -- "Big Yellow Taxi" and "Circle Game" are among my favourite.
Hey Emily, what a superb cover of "Both Sides Now" I hope Joni Mitchell hears it, and loves your interpretation of the song as much as I do! What more can I say, Brad, as usual, has said most of what I was going to say! Every song you put out, including your own compositions, are so accurate representations of the originals, yet, as soon as I hear them I think "That's Emily!" inspite of your delightful versatility, I have no idea how you manage that! I went to bed early today, but left my computer on and your beautiful tones woke me up at midnight "That's Emily" I thought! Thank you so much, what a pleasant way to wake! 🌟🎶 👏👏👌👍
Another fantastic performance thanks 😊

So beautifully done , what else can I say ?
Emily Linge writes poetic lyrics true to life, songs like Home and Dry and Time Goes By. But she performs covers like short stories that are sung for the first time. Her emotional performance and her way of singing these stories are heart-felt and beautiful. I am transported into a world rich in meaning and life experiences; as if angels are directing me to pay attention to what life is truly about. Keep going to the end of the world, Emily, your music inspires so many.
Love this song! Thank you for doing it. This is absolutely outstanding! Much success to you!
Interesting that Joni gave Judy Collins first crack at recording this song (top 10 hit), lovely tribute Emily.
Fantastic as usual. Hey Em , do big yellow taxi. I bet you will knock that one out of the park. Joni did it back in 1970. Great song Emily.. Love your music. Nicky Cristino. Cleveland, Ohio USA

One of the great American songs of the 20th century, Joni Mitchell's best I think, and you, Emily, do a great job of singing and especially great job on the guitar. Also sometimes taken for granted but the way you enunciate the lyrics makes them so easy to hear. I love your taste in picking such iconic classic songs to perform. And love your smile at the end!
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. You really did justice to a great song and a great artist.
Another fan of the great Joni Mitchell! Emily does this song really great! I'd love to hear her do Big Yellow Taxi!
Call me a creeper, I don't care. Her voice is enchanting. The bonus is it's one of my fave songs.
Thanks Emily, I live in Brazil, I'm 67 years old, I'm a bass player, not really a professional, but I should have been, I'm an engineer, at the moment I'm going through difficulties, and you with your wonderful voice have been an important support. Never stop singing, always go and follow if you dream. I should have followed my heart and the music. God bless you, thank you for existing. If I come to Brazil, I'll find a way to be in the front row. By the way, a tender kiss for your mother, she should have kept on singing, amazing voice. Kisses in the hearts of you both.
Beautiful-- and great mix on this one. Voice is perfect!
Well done. I’m a fan. Keep playing and singing, the world needs the joy you bring.
