※ 引述《bedtimestory (流離尋岸)》之銘言： : The Beginning of Survival is the title of Joni's latest : anthology, due out July 27 on Geffen. Calling the CD "co- : mmentaries on the world in which we live," Joni focuses on : songs from her 1985-1998 releases, serious and weighty : subjects all: greed, hunger, corruption (just for starters). : The material on this CD demonstrates the ongoing relevance : and timelessness of Joni's exquisite songwriting, in this : case when she's addressing subjects that we all wish weren't : so timeless. The beauty of the music draws the listener into : Joni's impassioned, sometimes outright angry lyrics. 　　同樣是來自官網的消息。Joni希望最新選集The Beginning of Survival的 銷售能達到令唱片公司的數字。這樣她才有能夠繼續向唱片公司爭取發行專輯 ／選集的機會。而她也才能不斷藉著專輯的設計，讓歌迷朋友欣賞她最新的藝 術創作。 Joni has a favor to ask of you. Joni and I talked for some time tonight about all of us getting a little "conspiracy" together for the release of The Beginning of Survival. How can you help? By purchasing the CD on July 27, the day it's due in stores. Tell your friends. Let's help Joni get her new CD onto the charts. There's a very good reason for this: Joni wants to make sure that there are future collections as beautiful as this one's going to be. It's an unfortunate truth that how a CD sells when it first comes out can make or break an artist's chances for having a say on future releases. Joni doesn't want what she considers her best work to end up "in Geffen's basement." She wants to be sure that she can continue to give us releases with her latest paintings, more than just a disc inside a plastic box. Joni's really happy with this CD. "When they see it, they'll love it, and they'll want to share it with people," she told me. "Buy two and hold on to one of them to give away as a Christmas present!" I promised her I would, of course, and hope you all will too. -- 永遠都記得你離去的那天清晨 你無聲無息地從我的枕邊離去 你選擇回到那擁有你靈魂的人的身邊 而我 只能再回到那段令我恐懼的歲月 我連忙跑到海邊 哭喊著「請別離開我」 悲傷的淚水不斷的從我的眼中流出 無奈的我只願大海能帶走我心中的傷痛 但只見一陣陣的潮水打在岸邊 彷彿悲傷又再一陣陣的湧上心頭 --
