    "And her heart is full and hollow like a cactus tree
    While she's so busy bein' free" - I know these women.

    The genius of open tunings and trippy deep lyrics in her prime.

    I love listening to her and contrast the enhancement of her voice and delivery between the 1970 video recording and this one. Either one is mesmerizing.

      I had seen her only once back in the late 1970s and she was amazing! I wish it was on film but I revisit that time everytime I hear her records.
      Be glad you were born in 1989. I was in gradeschool when her career started already! And she's still with us, thank the Lord for that!

    Joni's words, music and voice endure....such an incredible gift she has given the world. Her voice may be stilled due to health issues, she is nonetheless uplifting and inspirational.

      I'd say singer-song-writer-musicians, though, as they each have been so much more than merely "singers." Both are truly original, brilliantly creative, & innovative, legendary musical artists...I love them both, too 👍💙🎶

      Matt Turner: I guess you mean Joni then, as it is well-known that in this song she references some of the experiences & romances she had in California during her early days living there, & also, very clearly, the divorce papers & settlement with her first husband, Chuck Mitchell, whose surname she kept after their divorce.

      This beautiful song is about a woman who is not comfortable with commitment. The woman is not selfish. My life is exactly like the life of the woman or women Joni is singing about in this amazing song.
