I've had this song on repeat since recording this reaction...

[cgreek]

Congrats, you just discovered one the greatest songs ever written. A song I've probably listened to hundreds of times over the years and it always seems fresh.

[rickkemp]

She doesn't write lyrics, she writes poetry, and sets it to music.

My absolute favorite Joni Mitchell song. This whole album is brilliant. Top 10 of all time for me. 💜💜💜

[annehayes-grillo]

I would recommend "River" and "Carey", songs that are opposite in mood. River is sad and regretful, Carey is light-hearted and upbeat. Also "Little Green" is a poignant and heart-breaking song when you know that Joni gave birth to a daughter when she was quite young and unknown and gave her up for adoption, knowing she couldn't provide a good life for her. They reconnected when the daughter was an adult and now Joni has grandchildren. You can't go wrong with any of the songs on this album.

Joni's metaphors are endlessly beautiful and deeply moving. Taking the wine metaphor: "part of you pours out of me, in these lines from time to time" What a lovely tribute to her lover. So strong.

[MrGettysburg]

"Blue" is one of the greatest albums ever!!

[O_Towne_Bear]

"Blue" is a legendary album. Joni is the Queen of The Prairies, Canadian Icon and songwriter extroidinare.

[javabill]

this whole album is pure emotion from start to finish.
the title track is one of the most heart-shatteringly beautiful songs ever written.

[PaulRoehl-fiiw]

Joni is my favorite songwriter ever. Possibly the best artist alive. Looking forward to more reactions for sure.

I've been a sub for about a year now, but you just scored a 10 by reacting to Joni and this song in particular. She has been on my radar since the late 60's and there are other spectacular voices in varied genres, but Joni is a special - both in her songwriting and unique and beautiful vocals. She plays the guitar, piano and dulcimer on this particular album (self-taught.) with some guitar work from James Taylor. Thank you for this one, SalvoG! 👍👍💖💖 Other gems from this album that are more than worth a listen are "River", "My Old Man", "Cary" and "California." I played this entire album start to finish until I wore out the vinyl, then bought it on CD. For another treat, I would suggest "For Free" from "Ladies of the Canyon."

How could you not know about Joni Mitchell?! An absolute genius!

[sandybourdeau]

She is truly and an artisan goddess. This is my all time favorite.

[rkgator]

I don't know what I love more about Joni; her poetry, song writing, or her angelic voice. She has so many GREAT songs she is one of the best artists in the history of music.
"Blue" and "Amelia" are must listens.

[tommuscatello]

She is a gold mine of depth and breadth of innovation. Multidimensional artistry.

[rogethedogde]

My favorite Joni Mitchell song is "Both Sides Now" from the album of same name.

[bearballin]

❤ also on Blue, "California", "All I Want" (both performed on the dulcimer), "The Last Time I Saw Richard", and the title track "Blue" both performed on acoustic piano. Blue will give you a taste of Joni's jazz inspirations, which would come forward on her 5th-9th albums. On her final album of the decade, Mingus, is full blown jazz as Joni wrote all the lyrics to Charles Mingus' jazz standards. Looking fwd to your reactions G!

[maggieshevelew]

Thank you for finally listening to Joni. I’m one of the people from patreon trying to get Blue to finally win a poll. The entire album is simply a masterpiece.

[dorothystorry]

This is my favourite Joni Mitchell song..

[Boston]

Oh this is such a good one to start with. There is so much Joni, to dive into. She is incredible.This album, Blue, is incredible.
