Currently reading "Girls Like Us" about Carole King (yay!), Joni Mitchell (yay!), and Carly Simon (ugh, so not in the same league as the other two, but the connecting thread seems to be having dated James Taylor (ugh again)). This has been getting stuck in my head lately, as I've been listening to Blue while reading.
Finding a 'favourite' Joni Mitchell track is pretty impossible, she has created so much stunning music covering such a variety of styles. This however is certainly very near the top and one of my most played songs. It is life affirming, and captures all the joy of a free spirit in the late 60's. Joni's voice is truly unique and never better than here. Pretty video too of where the song was inspired. Peace and Love... ;-)

Come on down to the Mermaid Cafe . . .
This came on when I was in the car yesterday and it made me think I must return to Crete someday...plus it's one of Joni's best songs.
