What people think about Both Sides Now:

• This is one song that has 2 classic versions by one person. Love 'em both but this is my fav. 
• Found her by accident looking for James Taylor heard of her but never listened to her . Clouds absolutely brillliant absolutely lovely voice so clear. 
• This lady is one of the greatest women songwriters. I've been listening to her music since I was in my teens. A beautiful rendition of Clouds! There is NO ONE like her. 
• good god what an astounding song. i was so affected by it even on my first listen. 
• I liked the original very much but this one is beyond belief. Beautiful! 
• Perfect as a song can get, melody, lyrics, mood all congruent 
• I'm going to have to skip this track on Play My Library. It makes me cry too much... 
• The best description of human life..or at least the best description of mine. Joni's words reach heart and soul and they stay here forever. Time to time, when life seems to sink or I just feel so empty, this song is the first one i pick from my cds. Thanks, Joni, for this song and for everything you've done. You're always giving us a beautiful, impressionistic, strong representation of our hopes, fears, loves. 
• I really dont know life at all..... 
• This song is really special in both its forms, but the latter from "Both Sides Now" is especially haunting. Unfortunately for most of her performances the last twenty years or so, her once beautiful voice has been wrecked by so much smoking. But in the newer recording of this classic, that smoky voice lends a retrospective quality to the song, which allows the listener to imagine a now-older Joni looking back with hindsight at her life .. "I've looked at life from Both Sides Now.." Very effective, and moving.
