Hope Judy occasionally reads these comments and appreciates how much she is still loved.

I cried watching this. It's not often this old, cynical heart can be melted these days.

Judy is struggling but this voice is still the benchmark for a clear woman's voice.

She is amazing. Even after all these years, the essence of her beautiful singing remains strong and firmly intact.

She's really amazing.. I really love the way she delivered the song. She did it very well despite of the struggles with her voice. This really made me cry. Wishing more years to her life.

And with in my memory, my brother who passed away a few months ago. I started making a long journey looking for all kind of renditions of this song: "Both sides now"
And here is that immense masterpiece of Joni Mitchell . Since the year 2000 she 's been singing her own song in such an unparalleled stunningly beautiful way.
So we have to honoring Joni for this unforgettable song. She wrote about the existential essence ...of life. And she matches the lyrics to the melody in such an exceptional way ....
Lyrics which try to grasp the inability why we live.. And so we rock and sway on the golfslag of love, hope, loss, expectations. ..and all this sweet bitterness. And eventual a day comes where the illusions of our personal infinity or greatness is over.
And who talks about Joni... has to talk about Judy. Because it was Judy Collins( in 1965)who gives this song it recognition widely all over the world. (Judy with cristal clear voice was on her best on the piano in 1985.)
My brother and I have loved this song for many and many years. And in the earlier seventies (1971) We heard someone singing this melody in such a humble and lovely way.... put some fragments of this tune on "band"... And by while through the years I was looking for that song...I didn't know who the performer was....I didn't' know the man's name...That warm unique voice accompanied by a bit of tristesse … a voice and soul ready to forgive … Julio Bernardo Euson, a bit divine in doing this song in such a humble and lovely way (such an unique way).
I look at all these versions as complementary renditions. Not as competitors of each other. No one is going for an Olympic medal.
So I 've been creating my own list of renditions which are affecting my soul. Recently I added Mary Fahl to that list. She feels it in such a poignant way. And that deep "bronze" voice of her gives such an enrichment ...
But I've loved many performances of this song.... And it isn't important who sings it the best... that doesn't matter. The important is the quality... by bringing it in a way you could feel the different approach in contemplating about the subject...and that 's intriguing.

The Lady Judy is timeless. I was a young girl when the song was released. She still sounds amazing, looks amazing and looks beautiful. She is quite ageless. Love Judy's voice. Always have always will.

A voice i fell in love as a young boy back in the 70s. Especially this song gave me so much. I remember replaying it on and on that times. Great to see Judy Collins still alive and in beauty.... <3

I saw Judy in concert at the Lyric Theater in Baltimore, probably around 1968, and I'm glad she is still doing well and singing beautifully.
