This standing ovation was more than well-deserved. She performed “Both Sides Now,” a song Joni wrote when she was only 21 years old. This song has aged gracefully — as has Joni herself!
Joni took the stage surrounded by seated performers. The entire performance was both glamorous and comfortable, exuding a soft power and confidence that only a legend like Joni can.
Audiences were thrilled to see Joni Mitchell making her Grammy debut, and tears were commonplace in the seats (and at home!). What a fantastic gift, to see this incredible icon performing on such a great platform.
Fans were thrilled to see her back onstage.
“Utterly amazing! What timing! Gorgeous phrasing! What an artist!” retweeted one fan of Joni Mitchell.
“No one could argue this is one of the best pop/rock/folk songs ever written,” said another.
Check out this legendary performance for yourself. It’s so amazing how easily we can all access beautiful and powerful music.
