I own all, or nearly all, of her LPs, cassettes & Cds for a reason. I love her! Very comforting & true.
She's very interesting. I like how in all the interviews I've seen of her she is not trying to ingratiate herself to anyone, nor is she screaming her position. She has a distinct point of view and the courage to express it.
Very well put. She's an artist and a human being with integrity, insight and grace.
How profound that Joni coulda see the horrors of our society. Her genius is amazing.
"genius" 😆😂.
Anyone with half a brain can see it.
Again, 'privileged' people, who will do nothing to change their lives and will do nothing to help change the world making icons out of celebrities.
These are some of the worst people

15 years ago, and no shortages??? a billionairre talks, and doesn't help-that is the height of hyprocrisy...says the mother who gave up her child without a blink-hippie hypocrit
She has always been my heroine and she continues to speak truthfully. I will always rue the day i missed her concerts. Her music lives in my bones and has, for over forty years now. Bless Joni Mitchell.
Joni nails IT! And just hearing her talk is so inspiring and she is so honest!
I grew up loving her music art and poetry. Now I love her mind as well. Well said Joni. My most cherished moment was meeting you and being the recipient of a kiss from you on my cheek. I thank you for your amazing talent and for sharing it with us.
❤️💜💙
It's pretty simple, she is one of, in my opinion, the best original singer song writer period. It's her originality that always caught my ear. The voice and instrument in itself, the tuning from another planet and the privacy of the individual which made her so wonderful and artist. There have been times she reaches so deep I can't listen for years, hey I`m a guy but her power of interpretation let's you go where you need to go. Thanks for decades of originality and beautiful music
She still has the divine spark that keeps her music and art alive... God bless her and family with good health, fortune, unity and continued success;)
I have always loved Joni, her music, her art. Her shyness kept her personal self in the background and her art at the forefront. How amazing to hear Joni's assessment of our America and the upcoming global economic meltdown. Especially since it was recorded a few years ago, it is ever so true and unblinkingly accurate. Part of the wonder of her songs was her keen observation & telling of the human condition. Apparently, she still has that skill. How wonderful. What a treasure she is.
Prophetic words. She has great insight. Great mind, creative superiority, free spirit, wonderful human being, so authentic always.
What a refreshing and delightful insight into the mind of Joni Mitchell. She has changed music in her own way and made the world listen.
I have always been a huge fan of her music, but with every interview I am seeing more of her as a human being. All I can say is wow - what an incredible intellect. Thank you TH-cam for giving easy access to this stuff.
Right on. Now I know again why I love Joni so much. She is wise, honest, real and truthful. God Bless her.
She's magnificent. Brilliant and she's human above all definitions or adjectives to try to box her into a catagory of whatever. She's just plain marvelous.
She’s such an authentic & open human being.
She tells us who she, how she feels & what drives her.
I have loved her since 1973 & I didn’t think I could love her anymore….. I was wrong.
Three words come to mind…….
“A BEAUTIFUL SOUL”
Thank you JONI.,❤️❤️❤️
Wish I could meet her and give her a great big hug. Love you Joni. Thank You!
She is right not bitter. The media is twisted and I feel that if enough people agree with her we can make a difference.
Nigel Ward look into its eyes
YES
Media is not good or bad. However, media companies make money giving you what you want to consume. You are to blame for the poison or the brillance that they produce. In current day BS, the media is to blame. But really, culpability is closer to home. Get a mirror ...
What an intelligent and insightful person!
She is. She is a genius. WAtch some of her old music videos before she lost her voice. Yes she is a smoker. But she's still a genius❤️
she is beyond incredible! She is so many things and she has walked down so many different avenues in her life. I really don't think there are too many words that can actually describe her. Just listening to her speak about her ventures is enough to set your soul on fire.
15 years ago, and no shortages??? a billionairre talks, and doesn't help-that is the height of hyprocrisy...says the mother who gave up her child without a blink-hippie hypocrit
We need more of this.
Born in northern Saskatchewan, Canada. One of our Canadian musical icons, along with Gordon Lightfoot, Ann Murray, Randy Bachman, Burton Cummings, and others. Good to see her speaking out against violence in the world, from the American perspective - where she lives now.
Spot on Joni!!!!
As always.....
she's so brilliant.... everything she says is spot on.... the perception of the US is so different inside and outside the US....
Fascinating and spot on.
Mitchell, Young, Lightfoot, and Cohen. As a Canadian, I'm not sure if we will ever produce that level of quality ever again.
It one to know One! Pleasure to meet you.
Unfortunately, most folks unconsciously "chose" not to see what was (and still is) directly "in our face".
Joni Mitchell is very special in that she's managed to "ring true" and to do so in a way that has resonated with that which "rings true" for many millions of other smart warm lovely humans.
I'm glad to see that you're amongst them.
4:43 "When a culture's had peace for too long, it perverts..." That's precisely what's wrong with America right now. Not to say that a country needs war to stay healthy, but that being top dog for too long breeds a complacency that warps values. The "wars" should be against poverty and the suffering of our neighbors.
Joni is so insightful and honest,no wonder she wrote amazing songs and made us think ,she is what new young artist should strive for ,,no arrogance ,just class, inventive and cool,,something that's missing today
she is sooo incite-full and thought provoking and....so correct.. this video remember was done 3 years ago.
"It's not a very bright outlook" ....Joni speaks THE TRUTH.
She is the most brilliant person I've ever heard of.
+Terence Francis She has amazing insight into human nature, she is very well read on a broad spectrum of topics, and she comes across as having great wisdom and depth of soul. I've never met, or even heard of, anyone so brilliant. But that's just me. Maybe you run across such people every day.
She is so eloquent.
I"m in love with Joni and her musical poetry..I have been for close to 30 years.
The one think I can't figure out is why is she so proud of smoking?
She mentions it with a sense of pride in many of her interviews..
Any one have thoughts on this?
Maybe a combination of her rebellious streak (perhaps against her parents originally?) and perhaps some irony at having something she can't (or hasn't been able to) conquer.
She's just stating that smoking was her motivation.
I run out of my best adjectives for this lady.
she is always an observant..amazing!!
very relevant to our global times here in 2017.....she is so beautifu
Great assessment! :) Loved hearing her thoughts!
Joni Mitchell is human like all of us, and make mistakes. We talk about her and view her here not because of her mistakes but because she had a great, unique talent to write songs that touched millions of lives. We should appreciate that and not tear her down for little mistakes we all make. We all make mistakes but very few do the hard work and years of dedication to write new music. Remember what Lincoln said: "you will never uplift yourself by tearing down others." -self esteem issues
You are correct. If you have doubts about Joni, go buy "Hejira". An album written amd performed by her in the 70's and still is considered by Jazz and music critics in general to be beyond a classic. This would be one example of hundreds. Check out the lyrics if you want to learn something about life and poetry and history and art.
Check out Jaco Pastorius on bass. Brilliant.
Joni was ahead of her time.
The more I go back and listen to Joni....I totally know why we had a bond...SHE NEVER got proper credit....however she is multi talented....ARTISTS paints...and music...she saved me back in the day !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eloquent in every way. Insight expressed in poetic language. Not a single word is wasted.
Joni thank you I remember comming home from my job washing dishes and putting Court and Spark on and hoping my girlfriend would come over. This was 1975 I think. All those great tunes like car on the hill Much Love and Respect .
She started off playing the ukulele
Just watching this for the first time and realize that Joni was in my office and I missed her!
I admire her for her guts ... to speak her mind without regard to how her record sales might take a hit if she doesn't march in PC lockstep with the phonies out there.
Another fascinating interview!
firstg interview of joni that ive seen, and wow, shes aged, ive only seen her in videoms from the woodstock era, b ut so incredibly articulate and insightful. i will never stop watching 'big yellow taxi' at the isle of wight 1970. shes so youthful and innocent there.
Fabulous I LOVE this fabulous woman.
Jonni I am 42 and of similar genius!!
Well enthusiastic at least :)
Listen to the CLOADS album, again & again
Mary me Joni XXX
Love Joni's insight into the ills of society and our culture. Interesting and good interview. It isn't accurate that he was the pioneer of singer-songwriter. Both Loretta Lynn and Dolly Parton were writing and singing WAY before Joni. They are a different genre of music but still singer-songwriters who were trailblazers.
she is so wise, spot on correct
Joni is a full fledged genius, but talks like a regular person. Cool!
THINKING LADY right on !!! thanks for your great music
Yep, she doesn't, hide or sugar coat or ignore the massive world problems going on and shes not a sleep walking sheep in this world either. On top of that, she's a songwriter and artist of real subtance and has been inventive in musical style. Someone who leaves more than just footprints after they go.
Joni is spot on with this! She knows all about the government corruption and the sheep!
The corruption of governments globally is not only destroying democracy its destroying the very thing that let's us all live the environment as Joni is brutally aware of its in her interviews and her music You Don't Know what you got till its GONE what a woman.
Wonderful. Listen to her views on Berlin and America....
Right, vice. Well, as we have said her comments make you kind of fill in the blank. I think she is very thoughtful and in conversation would be able to explain herself better. And I agree she is a genius songwriter/musician and used to be a virtuoso vocalist.
kudos to Joni for telling the truth in the section "tomorrow's challenges" @ 4:20. :)
Everything she says from 4:21 to the end (the chapter titled, "Tomorrow's Challenges" is nothing less than prophecy, and so far it's dead-on accurate. (She predicted the sub-prime mortgage crash by 6 months! )
She’s a sweetheart!
no problem here ..........genius shared and we are grateful
What makes Joni Mitchell different from the others you mentioned is 'honesty and integrity'; She always speaks and sings her truth, that's why so many of us appreciate her.
And yet why so many feel intimidated by her
Generalities remarks sounds right to the point...I am listening to her...
i'll listen to joni's opinion before some angry joe schmo ranting on the internet....joni is a very substantial lady...sophisticated and so likeable
Well said vidabo. Great lady, great misunderstanding of reality. Actors and artists are often in their own world. Problem is, they want to control ours.
great misunderstanding of reality.In what sense?
Joni Mitchell Priceless!
✨🇨🇦✨🇨🇦✨🇨🇦✨🇨🇦
What a woman . . .❤
@solredoc: My 8 year old daughter is studying piano and wants to learn guitar. I was showing her videos of Joni yesterday and telling her, "that's who you want to model yourself after!" In any case, you will receive no arguments. Joni is magnificent and her songs stand the test of time.
Wow. From 4 minutes on especially. America has forgotten that her critics are her friends. What do we have? A prophet, and more than that, a person who sees, speaks, with clarity and perspective about society now. She's brilliant, unique, and a free thinker. It is profoundly frightening. I respect her for saying it. It isn't the last word, but it is a voice to be reckoned with. Listen!
We've Got To Get Back To The Garden.
Joni had little public drama. More energy for her gift.
The legend.
Joni is not only a musical genius but she is smart as hell. All that stuff she was saying about government is so true!
What Joni says here is all on point and even prophetic in re our current economic crisis.
The woman is wise and she is generally right.
Something truly Divine came through Mitchel that was part of a massively transformational era...she was/is blessed as were/are all who are capable of appreciating her work.
I hope the lovely and talented and ever growing Joni Mitchel gives up the smoking and makes it to 137. :-)
Wow! She said this back in 2008! I wonder how she feels now?
Very few people are brave enough to speak about what is happening to us in America in as clear and honest a manner as Joni Mitchell does here. The utter failure of men in this culture is a tragedy, and we have brought it upon ourselves. Also, our seemingly willful blindness to what our government is doing in the world. This was recorded a few years ago, but it remains true.
Oh I think those last comments of hers were extremely well put.
Loved it!
Would the spelling of Mitchell be possible on this wall, Charlie Rose Show?
Wow... not only an artist, but a prophet.
God I love this woman.
@S2Cents
Yeah she nailed it. She seems so sincere and so human. I liked her music a lot in when I first heard it in the early 70's, and I like her as I see her here just as much.
@Soulsacrificee The reason she says "you know" is by her Canadian Prairie upbringing which is wonderful,that is the way of respect of telling someone your situation and explaining for understanding
She still is a beautiful woman ...but in her early days she was one of the most beautiful females there ever was!!!!
A pioneer ,during the changing times,she was changing things,,but most don't listen since she is female . She is one of the defining minds of modern culture and influence, under radar these days.I consider her one of the best minds of music and life.
Her mind is more beautiful than her body.
She has it all: stunning natural beauty, poet, masterful guitarist, excellent painter, trailblazer in the music industry, common sense. I wish Millennial women could be more like Joni
tyler durden exactly duh & GOD BLESS YOU
@tyler durden good luck to you I say that to all the nutz
au claire de la lune was my grandma's favorite song. & her favorite color was blue. I find it sad that no one else in our family knew that of her, when she knew everything about and remembered and loved everyone. She LOVED EVERYONE. Every one in the WORLD. That's a lot of love.
I think it came from having so much patience... or vice versa.
LOVE ONE ANOTHER
she is brilliant , period
She's as interesting as ever...still got a lot to contribute to her society. Contrast this social commentator and philosopher with the young artist at the height of her singing ability. Search on: Joni Mitchell Johnny Cash Girl from the North Country. She could give you goosebumps.
AMEN joni!!!
*THAT VIDEO WAS UPLOADED IN 2008 and nobody cared to correct the mispelling in its title AND in its description yet !!!!!!... Very "pro" indeed "Charlie Rose"...*
Right on !
Some good points...and she did say she was speaking generally so its not like she thinks she knows everything
“It’s amazing how much people can smoke and still live such a long life. Think of how black her lungs are and she could still sing so beautifully.”
im so glad i got to hear that.
is this aired on PBS or is this web content only??
i'll stay up til midnight to watch charlie rose more often
It is a great interview. When are we are going to give peace a chance?
JOY !!!!
You can't HANDLE the TRUTH!
I also like her description of her early jobs which she seems quite proud of. I imagine this helped build her independent spirit, so very different from all the "frivolous" lemmings one sees today.
"It's not a very bright outlook but...."
It's the truth.
watching her made me think of what carole king wrote in her memoir about the situation of humanity today."when in doubt, give back." we should give back no matter how small the act of giving back is for a person. joni has done that through her music. but she should start walking her talk by doing something concretely positive. words are not enough. carole has done so much through various causes for women, children, the environment without much fanfare and taking credit. maybe joni should too.
Good comment.
I'm glad you notice that for the most part, there is in fact a difference between some Canadian accents and some American ones. Most people can't tell the difference lol.
