Glutton for punishment

[biffy]

One of my favourite Christmas (more Winter) songs is River by Joni Mitchell. Considering my in a complete huff state of today (not made any better by having to make a whole load of thank you cards and then forgetting one after I thought I was done), it was probably not such a great idea to listen to it repeatedly. It makes me weepy at the best of times, and right now I'm hormonal and full of festive gumblings. But I like it. After searching through iTunes I realised I now have 4 different versions of River: Joni, Travis, Sarah McLachlan and Robert Downey Jr. So I was wondering if anyone had/knew of any other versions of it that they would care to share? I know there's more out there, I'm just too damn lazy to look ; )

I'm only familiar with the Sarah McLachlan cover, but I did a quick search, and you wouldn't believe how many other artists have covered this song!

I'm sure some of the versions must be on YouTube :)
