13. A picture of your favourite band or artist



Remember those musical history lessons I mentioned? I'm pretty sure at least 20 of them were about Joni. She's a brilliant songwriter, whose work has influenced generations of artists behind her, especially, but not exclusively, female ones. Her voice, once light, airy, lovely and powerful all at once, has aged into a deeper, more jaded voice, showing metaphorically her growth as a musician as well.

Never listened to her before, but now I think I'll check her out. :)

Start with For the Roses or Ladies of the Canyon (albums), those are my favorites!
