Personally, I think this should officially be our national anthem.

[@iTiOiOiLiiFiAiNi]

2 thumbs up. My vote is in.

[@mjbinvis]

this track illustrates perfectly how much power Maynard's voice can carry to a track. the mere fact that he is pretty much doing this as an acapella piece with nothing but a keyboard for support shows just how much of an understanding of melody this man has.

[@jessepinkeye2339]

Joni Mitchell wrote and sang this without anything accompanying her.

That voice… just incredible.

And so once again,
My dear Johnny, my dear friend,
And so once again you are fighting us all,
And when I ask you why,
You raise your sticks and cry, and I fall,
Oh, my friend,
How did you come?,
To trade the fiddle for the drum,
You say I have turned,
Like the enemies you've earned,
But I can remember,
All the good things you are,
And so I ask you please,
Can I help you find the peace and the star?,
Oh, my friend,
What time is this?,
To trade the handshake for the fist
And so once again,
Oh, America my friend,
And so once again,
You are fighting us all,
And when we ask you why,
You raise your sticks and cry and we fall,
Oh, my friend,
How did you come,
To trade the fiddle for the drum
You say we have turned,
Like the enemies you've earned,
But we can remember,
All the good things you are,
And so we ask you please,
Can we help you find the peace and the star?,
Oh my friend,
We have all come,
To fear the beating of your drum

Another superb Joni Mitchell song!

I love Maynard so much. my sweet angel of darkness that fills my heart with light.

[@anthonytremblett8187]

I've only recently have come to know this song and much more about Maynard. Have always been there with Tool, but drove more into his other projects and I'm never let down. Such amazing talent and great at everything he does. This song actual brings a slight lump in the throat and water my eyes a touch honestly. Thank you for the share.

[@ryanwright4231]

He Is a truly amazing vocalist

[@monafaye6063]

His voice alone … hits me in all the feels.

[@arlinetaylor2033]

The harmonics...wow!

[@JediHobbit007]

Artists for over 100 years have said Red Rocks has the best sound of any amphitheater in the world. This song proves it.

[@angelofwar9223]

Cool insight

[@bmiller5713]

@@JediHobbit007 There was a light rain falling that night - it was visually and sonically amazing.

[@jrw344]

Joni wowed her audience when she sang her early song on the Dick Cavett show.

[@RozzDarkly]

Oh my friend

[@biggrobd]

Maynard is an absolute genius with such a versatile voice

[@anitagrey7356]

Wow!

[@user-ir8dw8ek9c]

Red Rocks !!!

[@silenthill2]

Stone and Echo has made it hard to listen to the original (eMotive, I know they are mostly covers) versions… This shows Maynard’s range, I can’t believe this is a live recording. I am so jealous and happy for those at this concert 🫡

[@joseacunabonilla7128]

Sublime 🖤🖤🖤

[@SB-hc1nt]

One of the best remakes of Joni Mitchell I think it might even be slightly better. It's such a beautiful song. Another great remake is Henry Lee Nick Cave/PJ Harvey.

[@iTiOiOiLiiFiAiNi]

Me too

[@miguelrubioespinosa]

Precise

[@W4BJM]

The original by Joni Mitchell has a much faster tempo to the song. Maynard slows it down, and turns it into such a lovely ballad.
So talented !!!!!!

This is a Vietnam song of why we were there? and the answer was....no. We were not supposed to be there.

[@1976oswald]

Awesome anti-war song !!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@JediHobbit007]

You should hear me sing this in the shower.

[@angelofwar9223]

JediHobbit007 lolol

I bet it sounds so good 😜

Ukraine has god on its side. They are patriots who’ve tasted freedom and democracy.
