"Both Sides Now" by Joni Mitchell

I had the honor of performing one of my favorite masterpieces, Joni Mitchell’s “Both Sides Now”, in my hometown. In a time that feels increasingly fragmented and uncertain, this song rings especially true. Singing these words brought motion and solace back to my spirit and I hope listening to them does the same for you.

Lyrics:
Rows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
Looked at clouds that way
But now they only block the sun
They rain and they snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way
I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down and still somehow
It's cloud illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all
Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way that you feel
As every fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way
But now it's just another show
And you leave 'em laughing when you go
And if you care, don't let them know
Don't give yourself away
I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take and still somehow
It's love's illusions that I recall
I really don't know love
Really don't know love at all
Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say, "I love you" right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I've looked at life that way
Oh, but now old friends they're acting strange
And they shake their heads and they tell me that I've changed
Well something's lost, but something's gained
In living every day
I've looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all
It's life's illusions that I recall
I really don't know life
I really don't know life at all

Any more like this and Beccs is going to find herself being invited to one of those infamous lunches in LA that start at seven in the evening, and at at which Joni herself knights the worthy ones as if on the field of battle! A beautiful rendition of one of the most difficult songs in the book.
