This song is one of the best examples word-picture expression. In the course of the song it brings a full sensory experience. My favorite Joni Mitchell song.
In her prime, she was the whole package: A poet who wrote accessible lyrics, a songwriter with an ear for interesting melodies, one of the best and most unique guitar players, wrapped in an appealing package. Singers today might look and sound good, but none comes close to the total package of Joni Mitchell.
...Agreed! Great performance of a great song...still resonates musically and lyrically as much as ever. Still gives me goose bumps every time I hear it
I agree wholeheartedly with the spirit of what I think you're trying to say. Just wish you had chosen differently, had not chosen the language of commodification and objectification to express your perceptions of one of North America's greatest artists ever!
Agree with tears in my eyes Bob. And she was a singer with an amazing vocal range, pitch and control, able to bend notes effortlessly with perfect timing.
Also highly recommended, if you don't know her already, is Joni's contemporary, the Bronx child prodigy and genius singer/songwriter Laura Nyro. Nyro is Joni's only musical influence that Joni has stated. Nyro's 'Captain for Dark Mornings' (1969) is one of Joni's top ten tracks ever. Joni described Nyro as 'holy wine in the bloodstream'. Spiritually intoxicating, indeed. Nyro's 'Crazy Love' (1978) is impossibly beautiful. She was inducted into the Rock Hall of Fame in 2012. The Guardian did a feature about her in April 2017. See Nyro youtube raves by Elton John, Todd Rundgren, Alice Cooper, Sara Barellies.
@@karengerber9655 or so the story goes....$HilLIARy said she was named after Sir Edmund Hillary, who wasn't famous for climbing Mount Everest until 6 YEARS after Hillbilly was born.
just astonishing. this song came just as my wife and I were married, and that sense of wonder at just the ordinary things in a lovely day was everywhere. sometimes it still is.
Joni is arguably the greatest artist of the last 60 years. She was a poet, musician, songwriter, and artist, excelled at all of it, and belongs on my Mt. Rushmore with Stevie Wonder, John Lennon, and Paul Simon as artists who just had more talent than everyone else, as far as what they could do. She, along with Crosby, Stills, & Nash (and Young) represented the hippies music and style as much as anyone in music in the late sixties and early seventies.
This was the song that really got me listening super carefully and excitedly to Joni Mitchell at the start. I think it was because it was such a carefree, happy and optimistic song at a time that was quite awful for me, in the mid '60s. I was in my midteens, and six feet away from Joni in the Riverboat coffeehouse in downtown Toronto, the Yorkville Village at it's most creative and revolutionary. The phrase " ... and the sun poured down like butterscotch and stuck to all my senses!" combined with her phenomenal musicianship, dignified confident professionalism, unaffected inhabiting of the song - she took my breath away and still does! Thanks for a lifetime of dedicated hard work and sharing your many talents and gifts with us all!
... How many people have you ever seen that can produce something like Chelsea Morning ? Very people have this combination of skills.... Joni still to this day understates her ability. When you hear it you know its special. Even more amazing is to watch her deliver this live and perfectly.
Whenever I walk by the Chelsea Hotel on a bright summer morning, I look up to a window & try to imagine a rainbow on the wall, with milk, toast, honey & a bowl of oranges on a table.
My absolute favorite Joni Mitchell song! She was all about the lyric, and melody and artistry. Plus she was an absolute doll! This song is on my "never get tired of hearing" list.
This performance came from the Dick Cavett Show. Jefferson Airplane were also guests on that episode and I believe if you look closely you can spot them in the audience.
Yes, and CSN. This was filmed the day after Woodstock ended (hence, why she never attended Woodstock; she couldn't get there and back in time!). David Crosby's boots still have mud on them from Woodstock. Find the Dick Cavett episode; you'll see all the performances.
Joni has one of the most amazing voices of our time. Charles Mingus was so right on when he chose her to continue his legacy. Joni has it all. It's hard to believe a long time before she was famous she opened for Bob Dylan and people were almost booing her off the stage. Her lyrics are so emotional and paint graphic pictures ! She's the best of the best--a musician's musician, singer's chanteuse, and composer's dream. Meryl J
God, she just melts my heart. And I know she isn't perfect - is quite complex - but most geniuses are and it doesn't matter. She still melts my heart...
Blessings from Taiwan 🇹🇼😇🧧 Congratulations to Joni Mitchell to win a lifetime achievement honor: the Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song in 2023💪🤩👍
@@RayIveySeriously Sorry people are intentionally confusing you, what joni did is put her fingers comfortably on the guitar then randomly tuned the strings up and down until it sounded acceptable to her when she strummed. She wasn't making new chords, she was accessing chords more comfortabley for her fingers and in a carefree random way where she'd get the sound first then later shed find out what actual chords she was playing so she could do it again in the future. So while not as amazing as some might want you to believe, it was still pretty cool she had a good enough ear to stumble on chords through random tunings.
She was and is a genius. No need to go further than that. When you read what she is saying it's as good as the best poetry and her melodic sense is so unique. Unlike Dylan she didn't need others to make her music palatable.
This from the Dick Cavett TV show, later to be called the "Woodstock Show" because he had various musical guests, and most had appeared at the icnomic Woodstock Festival which had ended only hours earlier.
good one clive.. Open tuning is great if you are a superstar... You get booted out of the building at auditions .. I always wanted the tune free man in paris to be about me but was about david Geffen.. lol
She uses open tunings, about sixty of them, largely because having polio as a child left her left hand too weak to have the dexterity for standard chord shapes. But that also brings in unusual musical combinations that don't appear in standard tunings, which is why it sounds so original. This one is in oped D tuning.
@@notvalidcharacters Just started using open tunings, never going back! Sounds amazing, especially open F# tuning, where the 6th string opens with a low C#. Just magical. Everybody hates my guitar playing so I retuned and the first comment someone made was "That sounds amazing". It does, and I have no idea why, it's turned me back on and I've played bad guitar since 1966!
Love this she really knows how to rock and rattle and roll! You just want to open up the door and absorb the beautiful sunshine and look for those rainbows -- they are there look it's over there! Joni is one of a kind that is for sure and we were lucky to have found her during our civil rights and ending the vietnam war protests!
David Yaffe spent 10 years interviewing many people, including Joni, for his book, Reckless Daughter. He really tells her story well, plus the stories of others who were in and out of her life.
You are absolutely right. When I was in NYC about a year ago, I had a very similar conversation with a local there and he told me about this misconception. Shame on me to forget. Thanks!
MrsSuzanneB I heard a great Joni story about a high school teacher who would mark up her poetry ruthlessly (in red ink) whenever she spotted a cliche or overused turn of phrase. Whenever I read her lyrics I am struck by her constantly innovated use of the English language. She is a true poet.
@@robbob7383 There's an incredible clip of her a few years earlier on a Canadian Hootnanny style show. She's sharing the stage with several others, two legends and a future legend in Harry Chapin. She's introduced as Joni Anderson and away she goes. She's two or three lines in and it's obvious from the get-go that they are with no ordinary talent.The guy in the cowboy hat has a Grammy for song of the year but Urge for Going leaves that in the dirt, and the look on his face says it all. We're in the presence of greatness, and they all know it. Of course Joni had her own Urge for Going and we're so glad she did, tragic as her early life was. I've only gone deep into her music in the last few years, to my shame. Her insights into the human condition are beyond peer, even when young
@@robbob7383 I had a high school teacher who would do that as well, and then read some of the worst examples to the class to ridicule the usage. It succeeded in making me avoid cliches like the plague ;-) Didn’t help me to write like Joni :-(
Joni is a TITAN in the world of music. There were no better songwriters than she, and along with her lilting voice, beautiful guitar and striking appearance, the only comparison I would make in total greatness inside of one person is Stevie Wonder.
This always reminds me a girl I loved and let get away at UT, Austin 1970. Her name was Spring and she turned me on to Joni. I was all radical/political. One of my few regrets. Aloha and Peace from Kauai.

Thanks for the info! I was unaware of the "real" Chelsea, though I must say, I'm not surprised. I suppose part of the beauty of songwriting (and any art, really) is that the only person who knows the true inspiration is the songwriter, but it can be interpreted at will by the observer. The Chelsea in New York is familiar, so the song resides there to me, to those in London, it would likely be the one there. And to those named Chelsea, it could potentially earn a whole new meaning altogether. :)
This the day after Woodstock, the Dick Cavett show with Jefferson Airplane and David Crosby. Joni was supposed to be there but was worried she wouldn't make it to this show.
Apart from anything else... Joni has a sublime... One off voice... Unmatched by any one else in history... Never mind the sheer mind blowing creative originality in all she does....
FWIW, the lyrics for "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" were written by Jerry Goffin, who was Carole King's husband at the time. Carole did the music. She describes this very clearly in her interesting autobiography.
Great recording 😊👌 I really hope JM dedicates herself to mentoring others directly in art/music/lyrics. PR vocal shows for a govt/ruling class that, in truth, has no love whatsoever for her is a real tragedy
This was right after Woodstock. She'd played 2 weeks before at the Atlantic City Pop Festival, but had a disappointing reception from the crowd that was a bit overanxious to rock. She kept her style and class intact, and lived to play another day, and be the absolute GOAT!
"...and the sun poured in like butterscotch and stuck to all my senses..." What a great line...!!!
I have thought of that line countless times over many years!!
Her lines are all so great, but yes, this is maybe my favorite from this song!
It's an incredible line. So much going on and you can just see and feel that bright, sunlit room.
You can't get any more descriptive than that.😁
This song is one of the best examples word-picture expression. In the course of the song it brings a full sensory experience. My favorite Joni Mitchell song.

No makeup, no autotune, no booty shak'n, no laser light show, no reverb, no backup dancers, no gimmicks. Pure, raw, incomparable talent.
👍👍👍

but imagine if someone COMBINED all that stuff witj pure, raw, incomparable talent!
No makeup ?? Doubt that from what I see.
My Dude, If you don’t see that lipstick, then you need to get those bifocals updated. Man oh Man.

There's not another like her.

You find a Joni Mitchell performance you haven't seen, and you find another marvel.

Ye. That was the first time I heard Joni on the radio all those years ago and I was mesmerised. From Dublin Ireland.
Ouch. So much, joy and loss, so many memories, mysteries...
And omg the voice, the range!..
Only half a million views. So sad that so many people don't know what they're missing.
What a voice! Love Joni Mitchell? Such a powerful lady. Amazing songs and vocals. They just don’t make’em like that anymore! ✌🏻❤️
This is my favorite Joni performance, she looked and sounds like a songbird.
Love Joni's guitar parts. Alot of alternate tunings and capo work. Big open sound.
Apparently the weakness in her left hand (from polio) led to her invention of alternative guitar tunings so she turned a problem into an improvement 😀
... How many people have you ever seen that can produce something like Chelsea Morning ? Very people have this combination of skills.... Joni still to this day understates her ability. When you hear it you know its special. Even more amazing is to watch her deliver this live and perfectly.
Yes we all have got such abilities.
You & me, like 2 birds
Whenever I walk by the Chelsea Hotel on a bright summer morning, I look up to a window & try to imagine a rainbow on the wall, with milk, toast, honey & a bowl of oranges on a table.
Me, too! Joni is the best.
This is just beautiful and just about the best version I've heard her sing!
Long live the Chelsea Hotel which was home to many of the world's great artists, writers, actors, and musicians including Joni Mitchell.
a national treasure for certain. i have not tired of listening to her gems over these decades.
Her music charms and mesmerizes now as much as when I first heard her 50 years ago...
sonyahannah I am with you. 50 yrs.❤️❤️❤️🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶❤️❤️❤️
One word : Genius.
Yes. I was also thinking "magic."
My absolute favorite Joni Mitchell song! She was all about the lyric, and melody and artistry. Plus she was an absolute doll! This song is on my "never get tired of hearing" list.
Part angel, full of joy. Part lion, eating up this whole world. An inspiration then and now.

There is no describing this enigmatic talent. A true blessing.
the sun poured in like butterscotch and stuck to all my senses -- one of my favorite lyrics ever.
Qué canción más bonita! Y que talento musical y vocal. Esta actuación es perfecta. Gracias Joni Mitchel ❤

They booked her ?! Awful
This performance happened the year I graduated high school. I love, love, love Joni Mitchell!
The imagery in Joni's songs is amazing....as well as her voice, her arrangements, etc.
God, she just melts my heart. And I know she isn't perfect - is quite complex - but most geniuses are and it doesn't matter. She still melts my heart...
69/70/71 Joni was simply a jewel that the likes of we will never see again.

Magically great. Open tunes her guitar for pretty much every song. Amazing that she can keep it all in her head.
such effortless genius!
Stunning, one of her best songs, thanks for posting it up
Such a beautiful Text!
Love her, and her voice is angelic!
What a time that was. Just can't capture it now.
Made her own chords for every song , Amazing talent , nothing even close now
Stupid question: can you explain "made her own chords"? I don't really understand guitar.
@@RayIveySeriously Late reply I know. Joni changed the tuning of the guitar to make the chords she wanted to.

When she started out as a talented gifted singer she was originally called Roberta Anderson. Very heart ❤️ warming
Greatest voice in folk music ever!
I've seen her quoted as saying this song "isn't my best work". Well, I would love to be able to write a song as good as this. It's brilliant.
this song is so beautiful. Joni is beautiful.

Can't get enough of Joni. She is just a joy to listen to.
Thanks for sharing.
5/5
only Joni Mitchell can get away with rainbows and butterscotch in her lyrics. love this girl, going to walk her home xx
LOL.. Yes and marvin Hamlisch agrees? Marvin wrote some great stuff.. I tried to "walk her home" but Joni took a Big Yellow Taxi.. hi
What a voice!!!!!!
Love to you Joni💕no one compares.
Eternal Timeless Classic. ..
Someone who plays guitar told me she had hers tuned in a really unusual way and plays chords no-one else thinks of. a true original!

It's the London Chelsea from a time when Joni and Jimmy Webb both lived there in a row of Mews houses ( not together LOL)
Loved her. She sings straight from the heart,
Talent.
This the day after Woodstock, the Dick Cavett show with Jefferson Airplane and David Crosby. Joni was supposed to be there but was worried she wouldn't make it to this show.
I suspected as much. So this is the famous Dick Cavett appearance. Yet the Airplane made it out to Woodstock. Gonna have to go deeper on this one
