Question: Help. In last weeks season finale of Providence Syd's sister Joanie played a song for her in the hospital. What was the name of the song and who was singing it? Thank you. Televisionary: I believe the song you seek is Joni Mitchell's The Circle Game, which is on the classic album Ladies of the Canyon. (It's also available on the recent collection Hits, a reasonably OK primer for the uninitiated. However, the purist in me insists you buy Ladies.) Once again, I've been buried with mail from people wanting to ID a song from a favorite episode.

But hey, that's why there's chocolate and vanilla, as my dear old dad would say. Besides, I'm hoping if I adopt a hard-hearted enough

Besides, I'm hoping if I adopt a hard-hearted enough stance no one I know will remember I used to sing that song around bonfires at Camp Tockwogh. (Oh, go easy — like you don't have a secret shame?)
