I love it when young people sing this old music from my generation especially when they do it this well!

No auto-tune, no processing, just 2 guitars ,harmonica, and 2 angelic voices with harmony and genuine emotion...what music should be!

I could listen to these two all day, every day.

I grew up in the 1970's listening to this masterpiece by Joni Mitchell, but hearing this song as a duet, I feel your performance out of this world, Thank you so much the MonaLisaTwins!

As somebody already said in the comments below, these young women are very special and they deserve all the recognition and acclaim they can get.

I think Joni Mitchell would be proud of your work!

After being away from KZfaq for a while, this was the song that really made me take notice of how much the MonaLisa Twins had grown over the years. I was a fan before, but since I've been absolutely hooked.

These girls always show the respect to the song. Beautiful

two unadorned musicians playing unadorned music, my personal favorite.

When you can cover such an iconic song by the GREAT Joni Mitchell and it doesn't lose anything in the translation your sublime musical artistry is undeniable!

Beautiful women, beautiful music, no tattoos, just plain beautiful!

Thank you Joni for this song. Thank you twins for doing it justice.

This songs a masterpiece, right up,there with any song by the Beatles , Paul Simon or anyone else. Songs like this made me ponder life as a very small child, and I'm sure it molded my character in a positive way. The golden age of music.

they turn classics into classics

The ease with which Lisa goes in and out of falsetto is incredible. And when Mona backs with "something's lost" at 2:57 my knees go weak. The Twins are rare talents indeed.

Joni Mitchell wrote Both Sides Now....Judy Collins had the HUGE hit with it in late 60s....Judy Collins 82nd Birthday was yesterday May 1, 2021......and now The MonaLisa Twins bring back this great song with their own special touch...great vocal from Lisa ..harmony from Mona and Mona’s special touch with the blues harp beautifully accentuating Lisa’s vocal....WELL DONE GIRLS❤️🧡

As a 76 years old chap, I’ve heard many, many versions of this song and loved most of them. This one rises above them all - including Joni’s.

As a musician, I cannot escape this Master Class. As a spectator, it's a balm for the soul. Thank you. The world is a better place because of MLT.

I love these beautiful twins so much they do wonderful covers of The Beatles, The Kinks, Joni Mitchell and so many other classic acts but they also have a bunch of their own songs for you. If you haven’t heard their original songs , do it; you won’t be disappointed. These girls are very special ❤️.

Just as great as Joni Mitchell's!

Unfortunately, here in Brazil the violence against women has increased during this pandemic. I hope all women have the same respect you gave to this Joni's song. It's very touching.

So beautifully done! Joni will be proud ❤

Magic? Witchcraft? How can these "children" capture a feeling of a generation that existed before they were even born? These ladies never cease to amaze me with how they perform so many songs that I grew up with. And I know they are not Joni (or any other artists) and don't try to be. However they do these great songs JUSTICE!!

Lisa's singing here is superb, further - and beautifully - enhanced by Mona's gorgeous harmonies. I wonder why nowadays I don't listen to anything but the twins in the car? Oh yes; nothing else comes close...

I cried listening to this.

Don't you just feel the vulnerability?Great,great,great.

Thank you.

The MonaLisa Twins are my favorite performers. How couldn't they be? With such sensitive, talented treatment of the Classics, plus their original songs, they provide their audience with the best of past & present. I loved Mona's finger picking on this. Her harmonica is reminiscent of Dylan's in its gentleness. The high harmonies are special, as is Lisa's lead... I'm also pretty sure they keep looking lovelier as time passes. What serious professionals they are.

We in the MLT Club got to see this a long time ago! Now it's YOUR TURN! How awesome is this???!!!

The un-cluttered beauty of a song well played will never go out of style.

These ladies are a treasure. They constantly bless my soul with their music. They remind me of a better time and what makes music special. They are part of a minority of artists that are keeping real music alive.

Just fabulous rendition. Nothing more needs to be said.

I seem to recall hearing Lisa say she doesn't get to use her falsetto voice enough. I certainly enjoy hearing it. I hope to hear more of it in the future.

One4 opf the best songs by one of the best songwriters

The Genius that is Joni ..

The 1960s was a better decade when it came to music, movies, tv, books, and so many other wonderful things!!!!

Beautiful job on this song , Thanks Ladies !!

Ladies this is so beautiful! Joni would be deeply touched! Its not often that a cover sounds so close to the original, but you both accomplished that feat. Mona, your blues 💙 harp is spot on. And Lisa, your voice is exquisite! Thank you Ladies for making us feel young again. 💛👱‍♀️❤👩‍🦰

So Pure

I think Joni would approve. Lovely indeed.

I was but a child when this song was published and hit the air waves,, I probably heard it and do not recall it during those early years. Enter the 70s The Eagles, Chicago, legendary Singer Songwriters like Jim Croce, Carole King, smooth 70s Soul Music, ABBA, Fleetwood Mac, Peter Frampton and the louder more assertive sounds of bands like Led Zeppelin, Queen & Aerosmith. I can vaguely recall hearing 'Both Sides", but it failed to gain my attention,,, maybe the opening lyrics were too dreamy & fluffy, maybe the radio stations of the American Midwest passed this song over as well. Who knows? It simply was not on my radar. I was just playing the MonaLisa Twins "Duo Sessions" play list as my head was up in the clouds,,, rather the ceiling fan that I was annoyed with repairing (no parts needed and only a few tools) when this song came on. The opening lyrics again failed to bring me in, but just as my repairs entered the completion phase; "Well something's lost, but something's gained in living every day" sounded in all of its angelic glory. "Well something's lost, but something's gained in living every day I've looked at life from both sides now From win and lose and still somehow It's life's illusions I recall I really don't know life at all I've looked at life from both sides now From up and down and still somehow It's life's illusions I recall I really don't know life at all" It just all made sense. Good Lord, what have I been missing? Repairs aside and feet back on the ground; this song racked up yet another KZfaq view as I listened again, but more intently and with a more accepting mind. Those opening fluffy lyrics certainly paint a surreal landscape background for the rest of the song that reveals a deeper meaning of the duality of life. The ever so salient lyrics suddenly become masterfully crafted poetry, well deserving of the brilliant simplicity of this MonaLisa Twins Duo Session recording. I love discovering anew what was once old. Thank You.

The other day I watching a vídeo of a commemorative show in honor of 75th anniversary of Jhonny Mitchell where a constallation of artists performed by picking up her songs. Now seeing this cover that you guys did, I came to the conclusion that if you had participated, the tribute would have been more beautiful, and the honoree would have been dazzled just I was now, listening and seeing you again. Thanks.

still hope to see these two play live one day ..

Fifty-five years ago my high school English teacher made us a bring in a poem we'd found every month. This was on of my contributions. Fifty-five years on, it means even more now than back in the day. Thank you for this beautiful rendition.

One year ago this week I commented on the birth of my nephews little baby girl Maddie born with a heart defect and asked for prayers from the MLT Club members...and you responded...THANK YOU...Maddie just celebrated her 1st birthday and she is doing Great...one might think “what heart problem “ as the Dr has given Maddie a 👍...HAPPY BIRTHDAY MADDIE.

exceptional ladies!

Probably my FAVORITE Joni Mitchell song... and there are soooooo many Joni songs to choose from too! Joni's music always evokes emotions with her heartfelt lyrics and music. But I believe you have actually SURPASSED Joni with this one! The emotions and feelings that you pour into this version take this to the stratosphere!!! This could actually be my new favorite MLT song!!!

I cannot understand how anyone could listen to this and press dislike? This is a really beautiful cover of a song that’s fairly hard to do justice to. I love your Beatles covers and clicked on this as I love the Joni version and I certainly wasn’t disappointed. Well done!

When a song and performance on this level of beauty garners zero thumbs down, we will have ascended to a higher plane of existence as a species....

Real talent is something you can't manufacture in a studio with technology.

This song is one of The 20Th Centuries Great all time songs. Wonderfully done.

Thank you for keeping these early songs alive for the next generations...you’re both wonderful!

Beautiful just Beautiful, I'm in my 70's and was was brought up with real music and this is just PERFECTION xx

To cover a song of a fab Canadian icon , legend Joni🇨🇦🍁🎼🎵🎶🤩😎, you succeeded superbly, just love your rendition, it's as beautiful as Joni's, Thankyou 👱‍♀️👩‍🦰🇬🇧💛❤🤘👌✌👍☮💜👏👏👏👏

What a nice surprise on a Sunday morning! A great cover of a timeless Joni Mitchell tune. Thank you Mona and Lisa.

Very talented young women, beautiful voices, amazing harmonies and they can play those instruments too. Love to see them live when the pandemic is over.

One of the most beautiful songs ever written and you two did it proud... like we all knew you would!

Beautiful. One of my favorite songs by one of my favorite artists.🥰

slow music is not that easy as we think, both of you did it perfectly!!

I really admire your work, very good!

Ladies, you have done it once again! Another beautiful, emotional cover of a normally untouchable song. I’m sure Joni is enjoying this one as much as I am.

Back in the days I heard the song so many times but I never followed the words until you to sang this God bless you I love you girls❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂❤❤❤😂Kalani.

I love these stripped down versions made for the MLT Club! Mona and Lisa's talent shines brightly!

Amazing song by the great Joni Mitchell.

Bravo! A fantastic cover of a great song by one of the best solo female singers of all time.

You two are like Angles sent from Heaven! #Canadafan

Pure WORLD class. Such incredible talents ♥

Keeping The Spirit of Music Alive

Joni Mitchell was one of my favorites when I was growing up. Parking lots, yellow taxis, and both sides now... Favorites of mine! The realness and feel of your interpretation more than pleases this old man.

You two broke my usual attention span of 10 seconds. I just could not stop listening until it was done. That was refreshing like spring water.

Wonderful anybody got a cure for goosebumps because I have them now.

Great job ladies, singing a song which is not easy from the great Joni who is one of the best singers of all time. Superb vocal from Lisa and her equally accomplished sister Mona.

What's wonderful is having heard these two sparking teenage voices swell into two assuredly rich and gorgeous women's voices. Remembering "California Dreaming," I look forward to hearing whatever you choose for your next song.

what super musicians MonaLisa!!!!!!!! keep on trucking great music!!!!!!!! wow

I absolutely adore your version of this Joni Mitchell classic. Your vocals Lisa are so beautiful and rich as always, it carries so much character and color. The beauty is breathtaking. Then Mona you join in with your vocals and harmonize, and you both take this song to heights I never thought possible. Absolute beauty. Kudos to Mona's harmonicamagic, provides such a soothing and wonderful voice line alongside Lisa's sublime singing. You honour Mitchell's masterpiece magnificently with your truly brilliant interpretation. 🎼🧡

Good job on this classic song! It's cloud, love and life illusions that we really don't know at all. I never felt the somber, somewhat dismal vibe of the song before. I felt it here. I was hoping that Mona would look to the camera but she didn't. Part of the mood desired here, I guess. Left me a little melancholy.

Clouds is one example of Joni Mitchell's fantastic song writing. You girls did a great job with this rendition, I'm a quite a fan of the bassy harmonica, it really adds to the arrangement.

Very nice. I've watched you two ladies grow up over the years on here, singing the songs from when I was a kid. Thanks for helping keep that music alive. You are very good singers and musicians, I've purchased a lot of your music and listen regularly. Heading to buy this one now. Thank you.

I saw Judy Collins sing this song in concert. It has been one of my favorites ever since. This version is absolutely beautiful. Ausgezeichnet!

Thank you so very much for making this song so much your own!

Well done Ladies. Thank you.

Fantastic beautiful talent & multi tasking displayed by mona harmonica, sing & guitar !

Memories are coming back to me from the 50 and 60🌞 Then you could whistle, dance or sing as opposed to today😎

This cover made me cry.. just perfect!

What a shame: This great version of this great song is two weeks on air and got only 90.000 viewers (and listeners). Hey youtube listener: wake up. Here is something you have to hear.

Wonderful, the secret to cover songs is selecting the perfect match to the singing and performing presentations. This is a perfectly produced cover. Especially commenting from me who was a teenager when this song was first released many, many decades ago.

Bravo & thanks!... May you both find the joy that you bring to so many!...

This is one of the greatest love songs ever written. they do it well, brilliantly actually

I have followed your progress through the years, and you both have matured into AWESOME musicians. Wonderful rendition of both sides now.

I listen this song almost every day. I love this twins. Greetings from Argentina

Beautiful ladies. As always.

Great performance ! Gorgeous twins !

Very true to the original getting Joni's singing style so well.

two angels singing

Just amazing, two beauty and incredible talented women singing a incredible nice song... its a caress to the soul... Thanks Mona and Lisa, from Mexico...

Beautifully Done ladies ❤

Well done, ladies.

I stumbled for a moment when she said fairies wheel !! Oh! Got it. Carry on!!!

The fingerstyle arrangement here is so well thought out and executed. It fits perfectly within the fabric of the song. Heavenly vocals. These two ladies never cease to amaze.... And there's that unmistakable joy that seems to shine through in every performance.

MonaLisa Twins Rock! The best covers and originals. Get "Orange" - it's a great album!!!!
