Now I find myself thinking/hoping there's still another album (or three) to look forward to in the future. "There'll be new dreams, maybe better dreams and plenty... before the last revolving year is through." She couldn't have picked a more inspiring lyric for the occasion.

      @@susanjohnson2068 I hear where you're coming from and have had some of the same concerns, but I think Joni probably needed Brandi there to smooth out some of the rough patches when she started performing again. I imagine Brandi provided emotional support as much as vocal support... it can't have been easy for Joni to get back on stage after all she's been through. But with Joni's voice coming back, and her health apparently better than anyone would have expected it to be at this point, perhaps Brandi can now step back and let Joni have the stage to herself.

    I'm 61 years old,I am an ex metal/funk/soul/fusion/folk guitar guy,a friend of mine James Vincent(Aorta,Azteca)to name a few plus countless musicians in between (Chaka Kahn being one of them) mentioned her awhile back,I FINALLY took the time and looked up a few video recordings of her music...truly one of the greats of our time..lyrically,the musicality of her voice,commanding of the stage,,what a pleasant surprise to say the least..and in this day and age EXTREMELY NEEDED...❤

      Think she "meant" she could hold those notes out for eighteen beats and hit high C anymore ???
      A singers voice age that alto deepens, and the soprano starts to waiver.
      Good songs for her to choose today.
