*******************

Welcome to the official YouTube channel of Joni Mitchell, whose songs “River,” “Both Sides Now," “California,” and albums ‘Clouds,’ ‘Ladies of the Canyon’ and ‘Blue’ compose only a fragment of a multi-disciplinary artistic output that has been embraced across generations, inspired multitudes of artists, and earned every conceivable accolade.

One of the world’s most remarkable and beloved artists, Mitchell has influenced musicians across a vast cross-section of genres with her ethereal songs that reflect social and environmental ideals. The prolific singer-songwriter-painter-poet has not only written and produced her music, but also designed most of her album covers and packaging. A journey into Joni Mitchell’s artistry is one of a highly original, harmonically innovative, and emotionally charged, familiar yet fresh adventure.

I have had the LP of this since I was 17. I am now 71. With all due respect to Mssrs Dylan, Cohen, and Springsteen, and to Mlles Nyro and Ian, it is Joni Mitchell and Joni Mitchell alone who was the greatest singer-songwriter of my lifetime. Mitchell's gift for melody, and her lyrics, which approach pure poetry, are simply incomparable.

My grandpa and step grandma took my sister and me to Catalina Island last year. I’ll never forget the boat ride to get there. It was early in the morning, 7 or 8am. The sky was full of clouds, it was quite windy, and slightly raining. We got to sit next to a window and watch the playful ocean, and I spotted dolphins a little distance away. It gave me a feeling I don’t think I could describe with words if I tried. It simply felt like this album—Song to a Seagull.

Grey mornings in Newfoundland facing the sea - this is the soundtrack of our lives. Thank you Joni ...

[bernlin]

This woman exists outside the typical conceptions of modern music. Always exhilarating to hear her soul speak through everything she's ever done.

[tinyfrog]

She sings to the soul. And, my soul has heard her all of my life. Smiles and tears, sometimes at the same time. This old woman can only thank you.

[mskytube]

we lived in a time of poets who wrote storys and put them to music. Will we ever see their like again? ❤️

Truly one of the most creative people to ever live

Listening this morning, this grey bleak morning, to Joni Mitchell’s premiere album entitled “Songs from a Seagull” which marked the first time many of us heard her mesmerizing voice which gave rise to countless dreams as we stretched out on sofas, sat comfortably in chairs, and let her words carry us to places our younger selves could only imagine. With eyes closed, a cigarette in hand, its smoke swirling up into the air, her lyrics emerged as the center of our musical compass. Her voice invited us to dream. And all these years later, never tiring of hearing the powerful sweetness of her voice and the lyrical stories of love, loss, hope and transformation.

EVERYONE here wishes they could thank her.

Born in November 1943, Joni Mitchell was 24 - 25 years old when she performed/recorded these songs. With songs and music composed by her, what a genius musician sharing the world with us still - fortunate us.

1968. I bought this album and began the start of my Joni Mitchell journey. Her music has been a part of my life since. Grateful I walked this earth the same time as this magical soulful person.

Joni....what can I say? You have been by my side since the beginning of it all. My best friend, my sister, and so much more. My heartfelt thanks, for then, for now and for always

[davidraymer]

Her incredible range, uncanny control, haunting tone, use of falsetto make her one of the great female singers ever.

[AstonishedonEarth]

Joni is like George Harrison in that she made so much music that most of her fans have never heard it all, but will keep discovering her gifts to us long after she passes into the other realms. I hope to hear it all before I pass myself 💛🌈🙌

[antheablackmore]

This is my all time favourite album, now at 65 it still transports me back over the years……the words are beyond beautiful….perfection ❤️

Saw Joni before this album came out it was January or Feb. 1968 at Club 47 Cambridge Mass. After her first set before about 60 people i knocked on her dressing room door when it opened i asked if i could see her and i was let in talked to her for about 15 minutes she signed the program for me will never forget that night.

When I first decided to listen to Joni Mitchell in an attentive way, I started with this, her debut album, so that I could get a notion of her evolution as an artist. And what an evolution it was! This album in particular will always thus have a special place in my aural memories, so much so that it sparked even more my own interest in poetry, painting and music. Thank you, Joni. Seminal is but a word, but one that suits you like silk.

[charlisparkles]

I adore every song on this album, I've listened to it (and sung along) for more than half my life, since discovering Joni in my teens ❤ thank you

[eveningandrewgunko]

Her legacy's in the very heart for the whole world
