Yeah, she does do a high falsetto - probably an octave-or-so jump - for the first part of the line, then drops down about two octaves from there for the last bit. She could do falsettos well (without straining), though that also annoyed a lot of folks.


well, if you can do it, why not?

I think I *expected* her to not hit the high notes so I was braced for it all the way through. Then the low notes came and I decided that was enough to allow me to post my joke ;-)

Nice version. As far as I recall, Joni's original version is in E (she also used an open D tuning with a capo on the second fret). It looks like they're playing it in D (with standard tuning), a key one full tone lower than Joni's. That singer can hit the high notes pretty well, aside from Joni's high notes it's hard to hit those low notes that Joni sang as the last phrase.


I was hoping you'd comment.  thx.

 meanie. that is maybe a little unfair. If I'm not mistaken (unlikely, cos my musical ear is back in the Stone Age) Joni is a whole octave higher.  Funny thing about this duo is the songs they choose to cover. These are the songs that I grew up with.

That singer can hit the high notes pretty well, aside from Joni's high notes (Joni is singing much of the song in a higher register), it's hard to hit those low notes that Joni sang as the last phrase.

No that's pretty nice. Hard to watch without thinking "Joni would have hit that note" tho.
