- The people running the official Joni Mitchell website loved the arrangement, and wanted me to write it out on TAB & notation, which I did! It's available for free at Joni's website... Link here:

Also, here's a free guitar lesson for this arrangement that I posted on my other RUclips channel! Please subscribe to that RUclips account as well if you want to see free lessons from me! Link here: • "Both Sides Now" GUITA...
I've never arranged anything by Joni Mitchell before.. Her singing is so incredibly free and wonderful. To do justice to a Joni Mitchell song (on solo guitar) seemed impossible.. but I tried! Only because this is one of my all time favorite songs. Thank you so much for listening!

This made my day!! :) Also, I did a free lesson on this arrangement on my other RUclips channel! Links to the TAB and lesson in the description of this video.. Thank you all so much for the kind words!
Yea! Thanks 🙏
totally deserved...thank you
Way to go, Emil! Well deserved, my friend.
Please put your covers also on Spotify, that would make MY day!
I’m an old cripple man and your music moves me to tears every time. Thank you young man.
Well, I've struggled, laboured, cried, and laughed on acoustic guitar for over 30 years. I've heard player after player, instrumental, and song. And, just when you think you've heard it all, along comes such a beautiful, beautifully played arrangement. Fantastic.
Yup. Couldn’t have said it better
Having heard Joni Mitchell for ages and played guitar all that time myself. Very touching very grateful ❤️

The best solo guitar rendition of BOTH SIDES NOW.
Thank you all for the kind comments, it means a lot to me!
Äh, du bara glänser ;)
Världsklass. Som vanligt!
yeah bro.. im a big fan from idn.. wish u luck dude..
Emil, do you have a recording of that song that you posted on your Instagram feed where you were playing the guitar and your wife was singing.i thought that was a terrific and soul-touching performance.
Please, the world needs that to be a recorded track, or at least a complete version.🙏
Your playing, with her voice ...gives me chills everytime I watch it.
Nous sommes toujours très touchés par la qualité de vos interprétations.
What a Beautiful Rendition of a Beautiful Song. Bravo!!! 👏👏👏
He Makes Music
~
He makes music
With hands that sing
He sounds the words
With wordless strings
A song of long ago
He sculpts its beauty
It’s bitter-sweet feel
He makes music
With emotions and longing
As he plays with shades
As he sketches and paints
Upon the frets and strings
He makes music.

Wow. I’ve been playing 22 years and listening to the few great acoustic players, and rarely have ever felt tears when someone plays. This is something special. What talent.
The most difficult thing you did is to bring the same feeling as the original... Thanks for sharing 😊
Emil, I am trying to think of words to do your playing justice, But I cannot describe what I just heard. Wow my friend.... That was one of the most emotional, moving, songs I've heard anyone play. Again, WOW!
Thank you Bob!!❤️
I'm speechless. If Joini Mitchell heard this I'm sure she'd fall in love with it. Thank you Emil, for sharing.Shes a Canadian National treasure.
🙏❤️
Je découvre un des guitaristes les plus inspirants et des plus talentueux de notre époque! Wow!
I hope that Joni hears this.The sensitivity that you approach your arrangements with gives new life to the music that is a compliment to the original writer and a treat for the listener. Thank you for sharing your magnificent talent with us!
Such a sweet arrangement, so well controlled and disciplined, made it simple and beautiful, so well done as always love your work.
So much talent in one person… I hope Joni sees this… what a beautiful arrangement! Thank you!
Brilliant as ever. I'm a massive Joni fan and you and your arrangement delivered all the beauty of this song.... thank you
Captured exactly the feeling of this really rather special song, bravo sir, very very beautiful
Thank you!!
Fantastic. Always loved this song and even play it in my own rudimentary way 😆
I notice some are baffled by your talent which I'm sure you have...in abundance. However I'm thinking of all the practice you must have put in to get this good. To me that shows dedication, stamina and willpower. I'm sure you have sacrificed many "fun" things on the altar of guitar practicing.
My hat off to you sir for all that and for bringing us this and other wonderful pieces of music.
We sure need that in today's world 😃👏❤️
Your comment made my day.. I’ve worked hard ❤️
@@EmilErnebroGuitar I'm glad I could provide good feedback. It is most deserved after all your hard work 😊👏
Finally someone who understands talent is an illusion. Only everyday discipline and countless practice hours can bring players to this level. Congrats Emil for that you're a great exemple for a lot of us
Emil, in my book you rank upon the top ten players . Very beautiful arrangement. Always a pleasure to hear you play. 👏👏👏
Thank you so much!! :)
I love your tone. So clear, accurate and smooth. I am inspired every time I listen to your music
So much nuance and beauty in this arrangement. It really was a joy to listen to. Thankyou!
Brilliant, amazing, moving , everything music inspires to be. Lovely.
I started D tuning, and G tuning when Joni's album first came out. Always a pleasure when Emil
plays old memories, and creates new ones! Thnx Maestro
In this harried and damaged world I find peace and comfort in your beautiful rendition...if it could only go on forever. Thanks so much!
Beautiful rendition of a most beautiful song. ❤️
Bravo. I fell in love with this song in 1974 and your beautiful arrangement reminds me of my college years.
🙏☺️
Beautifully done, Maestro. Always enjoy your music.
What a gorgeous arrangement! I love those chords around the 1:00 and 2:20 minute marks. I've lost track of the number of times I've played this tune. Thanks, Emil.
Thank you!!
Honestly the best version of that song ever, just beautiful, you conveyed the emotion of that song perfectly. That can make a grown man cry! What a talent!
Thank you so much, means a lot!!
EMIL PLAYS, I STOP EVERYTHING!!! SWEEEEET PERFORMANCE!!!
This is great. One of the prettiest songs ever and you do it justice nicely. Thank-you
Beautiful arrangement and a flawless performance. The opening with the gorgeous harp harmonics is amazing, but honestly my favorite part was when you fell into the sweet groove in the second verse. Overall a wonderful rendition of a classic song!
Waoo what a beautiful song, such a good idea to arrange it… with all your sensibility… a true gift
Dear Emil! I have seen your videos for the past few years and they are so wonderful! Yes, you’ ve got the tecnique but so have a lot of other players I see and hear. But you, in ever pay tone, strum, pick of a note, you create such magic, feeling, musicality, brings me so much joy, pain, feelings, emotion when you play. I am 59 years old, have played the guitar since I was eleven. I wish I just once could hit a string and reach out to someone the way that you always do. Really beautiful arrangement of that lovely song!💜
Absolutely gorgeous!! Thank you so much for sharing your arrangements with us 🤗 those harmonics are killing 😎
His harmonics is as amazing as grandpa Tommy Imanuels'
Stunning Emil. Your talent and touch is in a class by itself. I love listening to you play.
Thank you so much☺️
Pure Magic
Fabulous guitar playing ......bravo !!!!
This is just incredible, what a tribute to JM! Inspiring :)
This displays your musical soul as much as anything I've heard you do. Just lovely.
What a beautiful and so personal rendition. I used to Play and sing it in open tuning too, a very great song.
You're telling the whole story without the words🙏
Incredible, this is so moving! And one of my all time favorite songs, thank you!
Thank you so much 🙏☺️
You left me speechless...so good.
I remember back in 1985 when I recorded with my walkman, Tommy Emmanuel doing a pub gig in Sydney and playing Chet's "dropped D" version of Over the Rainbow and thinking WOW! Then a few years later he arranged his own version in C that sounded completely different. He definitely pushed the envelope much further with that tune.
And likewise here, I've only ever known Chet's version of "Both Sides Now", which is nice and boppy, but this version.... WOW. It's definitely pushed the envelope further.
I've posted this thought before in another video of Emil's, in that you can easily sound good playing fast. But demonstrating your virtuosity through all the nuances required in a slow song, that takes talent and genius.
This arrangement is just heart stopping and a real tear jerker. Which is what can happen with a simple tune, if it's been arranged and played by a world class virtuoso.
That’s an incredibly kind comment, thank you so much
I have been playing Classica Guitar for 40 years and love POP music arrangements, BOTH SIDES NOW has been arranged for SOLO Guitar by so many, This one is the most that catches by 'classical guitar mindedness'. Thanks for the free sheet music Emil, what makes hard to play this easy, intermidiate level of difficulty is playing those 'harmonics'.
Thank you so much!
Outstanding playing... as usual. Thank you Emil
Absolutely brilliant. a fine nod to a wonderful song.
I played an arrangement of “Both Sides Now” on classical guitar about 41 years ago in my Senior Recital to finish my music degree in college. Whew - Emil, your version is by far the most beautiful I’ve heard. From a player’s perspective, I appreciate it/your skill very much!
Thank you so much!! I'd love to hear that performance 41 years ago!! :)
absolutely beautiful. thank you for this song.
So beautiful, brought a tear to my eye. Your use of harmonics is so tasteful and with a tender treatment. Bravo, a guitarist's guitar player!
That was the best version I've ever heard! You amaze me with your talent!
Well! I have listened to Tom Emmanuel alot in my life. And struggled to find anyone who "felt" their music like he does. Then I bump into you Emil. Mate. What a blessing to have found you. Congrats on your ability. Alot of hard work. Beauitful.
Another awesome arrangement and playing by this guy! Thanks Emil
Great interpretation you re a master.
I like your choice of chords and the strumming. A smar😢t mix of bossa nova and jazzy tunes
👍
So beautiful! ❤️
Oh, I made that request! Not that I think that made you pull the plug..
As always I'm floored by your playing Emil. It's a song that I absolutely love, but haven't heard someone master it yet. But you did.
Takk Emil
wow. This song is special to me. Your rendition is beautiful. I gotta learn it!
Wow, this is the most beautiful version beside Joni Mitchells original!!! Thanks Emil!
Thank you Roland!!
Emil, this is a beautiful thing.
One word: stunning.
Thanks Emil.
this is so beautiful. Thank you.
Oh wow! This is such a beautiful arrangement. Thanks for your amazing dedication to the craft and for sharing the beauty of music with us
Absolutely beautiful especially with the use of the harmonics.
I love this song! I'm a fan of hers. You play masterfully. Thanks for the memories.❤
I have followed you for several years, always with great pleasure and admiration. You are truly a great musician Emil!
Thank you so much!!☺️
That's amazing!
Thanks for sharing the sheet music! 🎸🎶 That's so awesome!
Back for another listen today - sublime. A lot of people get a great deal of pleasure from your videos.
Absolutely astounding many many thanks, a pleasure listening to a great gifted player.
You certainly did this song justice Emil! Soul stirring
🙏😄
Maybe a lesson for this one someday? 😃
I’m so glad I haven’t got the skills to play this song this beautifully. If I did, I would do nothing else….🥰
Phenomenal! Everything I've seen you play is... Look forward to seeing what you come up with in the future!
Kudos for the close voicings and the great time feel, your arrangements always move me (even when I don't know the original, like this one)!
Go listen to the original song . It’s worth it. !!
Timeless performance , nice and balanced tone !
Simply Beautiful
Amazing
you captured the lovely melancholy of this amazing piece. Forever grateful...
Oh Man Emil, you really nailed this one. It was like listening to Joni without the words, especially her later version when she dropped her vocal register. The tone, the feeling, the cadence - everything was just perfect. She is such an iconic voice and to capture it the way you have is nothing short of miraculous. And those cascading harmonics? Tommy Emmanuel - eat your heart out, you met your match!
I read Emil's bio recently. Funny you should mention Tommy because the bio says that Emil was first inspired to learn that method (finger style?) when he heard Tommy Emmanuel.
@@mediamannaman Emil has been a sort of "protegé" of Tommy's for a while. The "wonder from Down Under" is very good at helping others. The method is generally known as finger style, but Tommy calls it the "boom chick" because of the sound the alternating bass makes when you slightly palm mute the the strings. Those harmonics are fiendishly difficult to play and Emil is as close to Tommy as anyone I've ever heard. Many of us, me included, have been inspired by Tommy but very few (certainly not me) get even close to his capability.
Lovely, thank you.
Wow! What a beautiful arrangement! This reminds me of someone I hold dear to my heart. Carmela, if somehow you’re reading this, you don’t know how much you mean to me. I wish you nothing but love and happiness.
You never disappoint me Emil. So touching sound
Awesome as always Emil, a big inspiration!! Thank you for share my friend, greetings from Spain
Love the arrangement and harp harmonics!
Brilliant arrangement !!! Loved it Emil !!!
Stunningly beautiful! Thank you for taking me on a wonderful trip down memory lane. 👏
Such feeling!!!!!!! Amazing!!!!!! Thank you!!!
Wow…..just wow….such a beautiful arrangement that really does Justice to the sentiment of the song.
Such an amazing start to my morning. Thanks for your inspiring playing bro!
Brother you are one with the music and it is so beautiful, so so beautiful
Thanks Emil. Minutes of pure hapiness. Again
wonderful - one of my favorites
Just beautiful =)
Wow...stunning
Man , great arrangement it's also one on my favorite song ever , great job , i love to hear you play whatever you're playing anyway. Cheers !
Pfff…ouaouhhh..incredible..thanks
Lovely harmonics!
Beautiful. I like the calming orange background too 🌞
Beautiful - I sure wish you had tabbed it out on your site for us mortals to give it a whirl. I've played the version by Randy Scruggs for years but your arrangement is the best!
Stay tuned! 🎶 TAB and lesson up soon!! /E
Wow Emil, this is one of my favorite songs, I have tried to play different versions of this song, but this really one my favorite, and having access to the free tab is really nice. Thanks for sharing. Ciao! Merci de Montréal
So glad that you like it!! ☺️
I feel calm for your beautiful sound
Otroligt vackert! Jag har alltid älskat den här melodin (och orden när de sjungs!) ❤🙏
