      its interesting to me that the Beatles didnt write one song comparable to the best Joni M songs, and yet they are lauded for their exceptional song writing skills. The palette of sounds JM used in her guitar and piano writing is unsurpassed in my view.

      No shortage of those, has she. The way she delivers the line, too...holding tree, at the end, as if she is crying, sad, alone...the price of her freedom intimated.
      One of a number of her songs that flat made me cry upon first and subsequent listens. Such bare bones honesty.

    reminds me of my trippy sister. she tried hard back in the day to turn me on to joni, dylan, etc.. instead, I listened to the Archies, Sean Cassidy or other bubble gum pop. It wasn't until I got into my mid 30s that I rediscovered Joni. My sister cornered me and made me listen to Blue all the way through over a bottle of wine. Thank God I did.

    There's a man who's been out sailing,
    in a decade full of dreams.
    And he takes her to a schooner,
    and he treats her like a queen.
    Bearing beads from California,
    with their amber stones and green.
    He has called her from the harbor,
    he has kissed her with his freedom,
    he has heard her off to starboard
    in the breaking and the breathing of the water weeds.
    While she was busy being free.
    There's a man who's climbed a mountain,
    and he's calling out her name,
    and he hopes her heart can hear,
    3,000 miles he calls again,
    he can think her there beside him,
    he can miss her just the same.
    He has missed her in the forest,
    while he showed her all the flowers,
    and the branches sang the chorus,
    as he climbed the scaly towers of a forest tree.
    While she was somewhere being free.
    There's a man who sent a letter and he's waiting for her reply.
    He has asked her of her travels since the day they said goodbye.
    He writes, "Wish you were beside me, we could make it if we try."
    He has seen her at the office, with her name on all his papers,
    through the sharing of the profits,
    he will find it hard to shake her from these memories.
    And she's so busy being free.
    There's a lady, in the city, and she thinks she loves them all.
    There's the one who's thinking of her,
    There's the one who sometimes calls.
    There's the one who writes her letters,
    with his facts and figures scrawl.
    She has brought them to her senses,
    they have laughed inside her laughter.
    Now she rallies her defenses,
    for she fears that one will ask her for eternity.
    And she's so busy being free.
    There's a man who sends her medals,
    he is bleeding from the war.
    There's a jouster and a jester and a man who owns a store.
    There's a drummer, and a dreamer,
    and you know there may be more .
    She will love them when she sees them,
    they will lose her if they follow.
    And she only means to please them,
    and her heart is full and hollow like a cactus tree.
    While she's so busy being free.
    Like a cactus tree-
    Being free.

    Dynamics, live on stage. One with her guitar and her song. She IS her song. Chords caress her flute-like voice. And someone, thankfully, caught it on film.

    If this song came out today, the media would cast dark unflattering remarks about all her suspended lovers. But this song is sung into the times it was written and it comes off as eerily beautiful and soft to the heart. Hard to resist it candor, and her voice is never better. I can only name 5 songs that have knocked me down, and held my breath while listening to its masterful delivery and composition. This is one of them.

    My life wasn't filled with such enchanting or wealthy lovers as those Joni so elegantly describes in this song, but nonetheless, the theme of the song and its message described my young life, touching me, affecting me in such a deeply personal way that it's beyond measuring the lessons it taught; the effect it had on me. Considering that no one before her ever wrote and shared with the world such intimately exposing songs of their lives -- that's remarkable enough in itself. But to have done it in a way that can reach across time and space to express moments strangers have also experienced -- that's not just powerful, but magical. I love you, Joni; thank you for sharing your life with us.

    to hear something beautiful, almost every day. I enjoyed most of the famous pop groups all my life, but I didn't listen to her pop-jazz compositions from the mid 70's on until this year. I don't think she got much airtime for her pop-jazz compositions after the early 70's, but some of her most beautiful music was ,yet, to come, and I missed it until TH-cam, 2012.

    Cactus tree is from Joni's first album, "Songs to a Seagull". You can get it on amazon.com. Buy it! It's the most hauntingly beautiful thing she ever did. Every song is a gem. My favorite is "Marcy". I heard it on the radio when I was18 years old...that would have been 1969, and I have loved it ever since. I still play the album just about every day. Have it on my mp3 player and on my computer at work, along with just about everything else that she has done. .

    Everything.... the woman is poetry in the flesh...

    This song offers such a complex character portrait. It’s too simple to read it as a critique of an independent woman. The men are portrayed as romantics, trying to create a princess out of her, while she demands to follow her own path. But in a world that follows scripts, there is a price to pay for honesty and independence. But even that summation is too simple. The woman might eventually be running out of habit. Complex and beautiful.

    This song is more moving to me now than it was back then. I understand it better now. I just watched a documentary about her on Netflix and it was awesome!

      I've lived it all from the 70s to being gothic raver in late 90s. Joni will always be my first love of music. Special place in my heart God knows!!!!!!!!

    Gosh, it's as if I could've penned these lyrics..Very touching and beautiful from her heart...from movie, "A Walk In The Moon"..I love Joni Mitchell for her truth..

      Is that the Diane Lane, Viggo movie? I believe I saw a good portion of that once, though not all.
      I love Joni Mitchell for many things, the least of them most definitely not being that she is a truth teller. Most folks hate those, but I don't. She has recently joined my personal Mt. Rushmore, along with Muhammad Ali and George Carlin--all time greats unafraid to speak truth.
      Good to read you, Eileen Bento.
