Chelsea Morning: Joni Mitchell
I get to pick favorite songs today.
This is from Clouds which I brought to Africa with me on a cassette which the humidity helped kill then I bought another which eventually was replaced by a CD.
This album has more memories attached than any other I own.

Thanks, Greg
Joy is exactly what I hear in this song, and I see colors and rainbows and green oranges and I can smell the incense.

I wondered if Joni was going to get a lifetime ban following her bizarro attack on Bob Dylan

My dear Hedley,
Joni seems to leave few unscathed.
Joni Mitchell is not known for holding her tongue, particularly when it comes to fellow female artists. In 2006, the 66-year-old singer songwriter mused: “I always thought the women of song don’t get along, and I don’t know why that is. I had a hard time with Laura Nyro also, and Joan Baez would have broken my leg if she could.”
*She doesn’t have much time for female poets either. “Augustine, Anne Sexton and Sylvia Plath are confessional writers and all three make me sick,” she once said. “I have nothing in common with them. Sexton was a whopping liar. All of her confessions, as far as I can determine, seem to be contrived. Plath, I don’t know that well, but I don’t think suicide is chic.”

“Bob is not authentic at all. He’s a plagiarist, and his name and voice are fake. Everything about Bob is a deception. We are like night and day, he and I.”
“I have this weird, incurable disease that seems like it’s from outer space”
“I’m actually trying to get out of the music business to battle for Morgellons sufferers to receive the credibility that’s owed to them”
Joni has become a little “odd”

My Dear Hedley,
A little “odd” is kind!

I do like the idea of Morgellons which has been defined as a delusional parasitosis where the victims believe that they have been infected with parasites crawling under the skin.
I have to assume that she caught it from some random spaceman and not, say Graham Nash

I’m not so sure about Graham Nash!
