Judy collins i've looked at life from both sides now?
Judy Collins indspillede den første kommercielt udgivne version af sangen kort tid efter, at Mitchell havde skrevet den, på sit album Wildflowers fra 1967. I oktober 1968 blev den udgivet som single og nåede i december op på nr. 8 på den amerikanske popsingle-liste. Den nåede nr. 6 i Canada. I begyndelsen af 1969 vandt den en Grammy Award for bedste folkemusik. Pladen toppede som nummer 3 på Billboards Easy Listening-liste, og "Both Sides, Now" er blevet en af Collins' signatursange. Mitchell brød sig ikke om Collins' indspilning af sangen, på trods af den omtale, som dens succes skabte for Mitchells egen karriere.
Judy Collins recorded the first commercially released version of the song, shortly after Mitchell wrote it, for her 1967 Wildflowers album. In October 1968 it was released as a single, reaching #8 on the U.S. pop singles charts by December. It reached #6 in Canada. In early 1969 it won a Grammy Award for Best Folk Performance. The record peaked at #3 on Billboard's Easy Listening survey and "Both Sides, Now" has become one of Collins' signature songs. Mitchell disliked Collins' recording of the song, despite the publicity that its success generated for Mitchell's own career.
