    I'm speechless! At last a Joni Mitchell reaction! She hit you where it counts, the heart and mind. Joni is legend, one of the most authentic and unique singer/songwriters to come out of the 1960s/70s. Her lyrical poetry is usually paired with her guitar and piano work. On this track and from the same album, "All I Want", Joni is playing an instrument called the dulcimer. When the "beat" drops, that guitar is being played by her then beau, James Taylor (Fire and Rain, You've Got a Friend). Joni also wrote the hippie anthem for Woodstock, covered by several rock legends.

    "Just before our love got lost you said

    and I said "Constantly in the darkness,
    where's that at?
    If you want me I'll be in the bar". The most soul baring/brutal lines. If you can understand/feel her lyrics/music you will know what it means to be a woman - a woman in love and a woman alone.

    Joni was incredibly influential as a guitarist and songwriter from the late 60's onward. She invented lots of new ways to tune the guitar for different songs. She wrote the song Woodstock which was a big hit for Crosby, Stills, & Nash. She did lots of styles. She even painted lots of her own album covers.
    Check out her songs:
    Both Sides Now
    Big Yellow Taxi
    Chelsea Morning
    Free Man in Paris

      One of the great side-benefits of her magical voice is that nobody ever dared cover any of her songs (apart from kdlang and Care of You, but that's fair) because she is so unique. So the world was spared the likes of Adele trying to do Carey. James Taylor covered River, but he's canon, so that's allowed. Also he knows not to do a Joni on the song. As if.

    Prince was a great fan of hers. He did a cover of this song; one with the guitar and one with the piano. The first time I heard her sing was back in the day when FM radio DJ's would play songs or entire albums upon request. Her voice hit me the way it hit you. I have all of her albums, and it's one big journey, indeed.

    Prince was a great admirer of Joni, and does a cover of this song that is out of this world

    Probably the greatest stream-of-consciousness songwriter there's ever been, and (as is evident early in this song) she's one of ours (Canadians, that is; I'm Canadian). Her best known song is likely "Big Yellow Taxi" which has been covered by just about everyone, but other notable songs by Joni are "Help Me" and "Free Man In Paris". My favourite by her is "River", sad but lovely...

    Loved this Jay! I had the exact same reaction when I first heard her when I was young. Her voice/music is like a spiritual experience. So honest, intimate, vulnerable. Thanks for sharing this!

    Don't know how I missed this. You are so sincere in your response to people.
    Wrote and arranged all her music. The range, yodeling....
    Perfect.

    One of the best songwriters of all time. If you want to learn about life, about love, it is Joni.

    Delicate, hauntingly beautiful, humane and tragic. Her song River is like this also.

    Check out her most haunting and ethereal song called 'Songs to Aging Children Come'. It's played by an actress in the funeral scene of the movie, 'Alice's Restaurant', with Arlo Guthrie.

    Joni is amazing. She has a pure natural voice and didn’t rely on voice modifiers that are used today

    Stephen Stills wrote a song about her balled "Our House". Crosby Stills & Nash sang that song.
    Even 50 years later tears come to his eyes about her breaking up with him.

    Oh and check out “Coyote” and “Amelia”. She played with bass guitarists

    Joni deserved more credit as a guitar player. Her playing shows best, I think, on her album Hejira. And her awesome voice has never been matched. A good song to listen to of her's is Sweet Bird.

    I would recommend Joni all day long! My girlfriends and I used to sing her song Twisted, and we had it down!! This brings back such good memories! Some of her most memorable songs are Big Yellow Taxi, Woodstock, Help Me, and Raised on Robbery.
