Her bit on intellect is dead on. We are so much stupider than our gift of emotional intuition and we betray it at cost.

Her imagination lyrically is off the planet. But she is message vocalist, an activist. I have always liked her most musically. Her expressive voice, her vocal phrasing, her weird and wonderful guitar chords.She, out all pop artists, has been full of diversity- a lot of people love her folk, but then her jazz rock, r&b , then her pure jazz. She then recorded folk rock pop in the 80’s such as the brilliant compilation album Chalk in The Rain Storm , then back to wonderfully done Night Ride Home and the Grammy Award winner Turbulent Indigo which had the beautiful torching ballad Sire of Sorrow and a host of other appealing tunes. But you really have to like Both Sides Now with her renditions of past Ballad tunes dating back prior to WW2. Backed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra many of its instrumentalists were openly in tears so touched with Joni singing these jazz ballads of yesteryear. She is a serious musician and song writer with a magnificent legacy.

Her 80's work was so underappreciated! I didn't get into Joni till she released Dog Eat Dog which is her most harshly criticised work. I was too young to take notice of her in the 70's. So many of the artists I loved in the 80's stated how much they loved Joni (Annie Lennox, Stevie Nicks, Kate Bush and Cyndi Lauper) so I had to check her out. Good Friends I fell in love with right away. Wild Things Run Fast, Dog Eat Dog & Chalk Mark in a Rainstorm require reassessment.

Joni’s first few albums, largely written while she was a teenager, are jaw dropping … I believe it was Stevie Wonder that commented “ how does someone that young ever get to be that deep? “ Crosby’s comments after hearing her singing for the first time described a stage presence that almost felt supernatural, he claimed it pushed him back against the wall…

And she collected soda pop bottles off the ground when she was nine years old to buy them too. Just imagine little Joni buying her first pack of unfiltered Chesterfield's in 1952. It's part of what made Joni Mitchell who she is and I, personally, wouldn't change a single solitary thing.

I enjoy all types of music, Jim Reeves was one of my favourites, then I found out he was a racist, never been the same since. Bob Dylan is another of my favourites, is he a plagiarist? dont know, I will be disappointed, but i'll still enjoy his music with maybe a bit less enthusiasm.
@Michael696 ай бұрын
I understand. The video I'm currently working on has led me to find out many things about the song's writer, and it's beyond disappointing and has at times caused me to consider abandoning the entire project, but I think sometimes it's important to separate the art from the artist. As for Dylan, I don't think he's a plagiarist, he's just otherworldly. In his 60 minutes interview, he spoke about how songs like "It's Alright Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)" come to you through the ephemeral muse and that it's not something you can just sit down and write. As Leonard Cohen said shortly before his death, "I think that Bob Dylan knows this more than all of us: you don't write the songs anyhow."

As the famous composer Igor Stravinsky once said, "Lesser artists borrow, great artists steal." The best stuff gets recycled regularly and a lot of the time we just don't know it. Steal and synthesize could be the key to "genius".

Mother of the year,lol. She chose her music career over being a mother to her child.
@Michael692 ай бұрын
That's not exactly true. She was young when she birthed her daughter and felt as though, due to her circumstances (having no money, the father up and left them), she could not provide well enough for her and give her what she needed/deserved, so she gave her up for adoption in the hopes she could have a better life. Her music career came after; it was a means to express herself and grieve for her daughter, hence many songs have references to her. In the late 90s when Joni and her daughter reuinited, Joni said that she didn't have a reason to make music anymore because she was mainly doing it for her daughter. She returned to put all her energy into what work was always her first and foremost - painting.
