    Aoife simply nailed it on this. She managed to honor Joni and still be quintessentially Aoife. Love them both! Great last chord!

    This isn't an easy song to sing, and imo, verges on territory that should not be walked upon.
    However, this is beyond doing beyond justice to this incredibly personal and nearly "off-grounds" song. Just beautiful.

    I don't know what perfection is, except that it is created in the mind of the beholder. I don't see the point of comparisons or critical dwelling on fine points. This is a stunning performance of a beautiful song. That's all I need to know.

    Musicians as good as this should continue to honor Joni Mitchell by performing her work - - to help us really appreciate what a gift Joni is. Among so many talents - what a complete instrument is her voice!

    Wow! An interpretaton of such an iconic performance. And nailed it. The mandolin player manage to give us a performance of Joni's quirky and simple dulcimer, without it being quirky and simple. Aoife's performance conveyed the essence of the song, (And it was an amazing performance.). The band was just, subtly there, which is tough to do in such a personal song. As someone who considers "A Case of You" to be the greatest popular song of modern times, I believe this performance nailed it.

  • @KeelyBurnMusic
    @KeelyBurnMusic 4 года назад +57

    I believe this is one of the greatest songs ever written, and it is such a treat to hear this band take it on- the mandolin instead of dulcimer gives it a beautiful, gentle touch, and Aoife's vocals are just spot on.

    God I miss “Live From Here”. Chris is not only a genius and virtuoso musician, but such a student of music of so many genres, and he attracted such great talent to come perform with him, like Aoife, Critter, and Alex. Loved the quote of the bass line from the original, whoever played that.

    • @juancpgo
      @juancpgo 4 года назад +17

      The thing about Joni is that she is so peculiar as an artist, her little inflections both in voice and instruments, and the song construction itself, that only she can really do them total justice. But at the same time, perhaps because of that uniqueness, it is specially lovely to see other performers take her material into their own universe and make it their thing.

I wake up and turn on RUclips with all of my favorite Aoife O'Donovan, Sarah Jarosz and I'm With Her videos lined up, along with some Mandolin Orange, and then I'm late for work. But its great to listen in the morning while drinking coffee. Warning, don't keep your guitar anywhere near or you may never make it to work.
