Joni Mitchell Both Sides Now (2000) Joni Mitchell Both Sides Now For Jana, M and CC Both Sides Now by Joni Mitchell - Lyrics Rows and (More) Joni Mitchell Both Sides Now For Jana, M and CC Both Sides Now by Joni Mitchell - Lyrics Rows and flows of angel hair And ice cream castles in the air, And feather canyons everywhere, I've looked at clouds that way. But now they only block the sun, They rain and snow on everyone. So many things I would have done, But clouds got in my way. I've looked at clouds from both sides now, From up and down and still somehow It's clouds' illusions I recall; I really don't know clouds at all. Moons and Junes and ferris wheels, The dizzy dancing way I feel, As every fairy tale comes real, I've looked at love that way. But now it's just another show, You leave 'em laughing when you go. And if you care, don't let them know, Don't give yourself away. I've looked at love from both sides now, From give and take and still somehow It's love's illusions I recall; I really don't know love at all. Tears and fears and feeling proud, To say I love you right out loud, Dreams and schemes and circus crowds, I've looked at life that way. But now old friends are acting strange, They shake their heads and they say I've changed. Well something's lost but something's gained, In living every day. I've looked at life from both sides now, From win and lose and still somehow It's life's illusions I recall; I really don't know life at all. "Inductee: Joni Mitchell (vocals, guitar; born November 7, 1943) A consummate artist, Joni Mitchell is an accomplished musician, songwriter, poet and painter. Hailing from Canada, where she performed as a folksinger as far back as 1962, she found her niche on the same Southern California singer/songwriter scene of the late Sixties and early Seventies that germinated such kindred spirits as Jackson Browne, Warren Zevon and Crosby, Stills & Nash. Mitchell's artistry goes well beyond folksinging to incorporate elements of jazz and classical music. In her own words, "I looked like a folksinger, even though the moment I began to write, my music was not folk music. It was something else that had elements of romantic classicism to it." Impossible to categorize, Mitchell has doggedly pursued avenues of self-expression, heedless of commercial outcomes. Nonetheless, she managed to connect with a mass audience in the mid-Seventies when a series of albums-Court and Spark (1974, #2), Miles of Aisles (1974, #2), The Hissing of Summer Lawns (1975, #4) and Hejira (1976, #13)-established her as one of that decade's pre-eminent artists. Mitchell was born Roberta Joan Anderson in remote northwest Canada. She was raised in the city of Saskatoon, where she took up painting and music at an early age. Her first song, "Day by Day," was written in 1964 while she was en route to a folk festival in Toronto. She moved to Toronto a year later, where she got caught up in the city's flourishing club scene. In 1965, she married folksinger Chuck Mitchell, keeping his last name after they divorced. Mitchell's songs were discovered, performed and recorded by such established folk musicians as Tom Rush, Ian and Sylvia, Judy Collins (whose version of "Both Sides Now" went to #8 in 1968), Dave Van Ronk and Buffy Saint-Marie. British folk-rockers Fairport Convention cut some of her earliest material as well. Mitchell was signed to Reprise Records in 1967, and her untitled first album appeared a year later. It was followed by Clouds, which included Mitchell's versions of "Both Sides Now" and "Chelsea Morning," and Ladies of the Canyon, which contained "Big Yellow Taxi," an anti-"progress" ditty that stands as one of Mitchell's signature tunes. Her fourth album, 1971's Blue, was a stunning a suite of songs about romantic disillusionment that stands as a classic in the confessional singer/songwriter mode. Mitchell's popular breakthrough came two albums later with Court and Spark, a sprightly and intelligent jazz-pop album made with musical support from the jazz-fusion ensemble Tom Scott and the LA Express. Both experimental and accessible, Mitchell's mid-Seventies output won her a large following. Hejira, which appeared in 1976, is regarded as Mitchell's masterpiece. The title is an Arabic word meaning "flight from the dream," and the album was a uniquely textured and exploratory song cycle that traced one woman's mystical "hejira" through this world. (Less)
Joni Mitchell - Both Sides Now Live 1970 Joni Mitchell, CC (born November 7, 1943) is a Canadian musician, songwriter, and painter.[1] (More) Joni Mitchell, CC (born November 7, 1943) is a Canadian musician, songwriter, and painter.[1] Mitchell began singing in small nightclubs in her native Western Canada and then busking on the streets of Toronto. In the mid-1960s she left for New York City and its rich folk music scene, recording her debut album in 1968 and achieving fame first as a songwriter ("Urge for Going", "Chelsea Morning", "Both Sides Now", "Woodstock") and then as a singer in her own right.[2] Finally settling in Southern California, Mitchell played a key part in the folk rock movement then sweeping the musical landscape. Blue, her starkly personal 1971 album, is regarded as one of the strongest and most influential records of the time.[3] Mitchell also had pop hits such as "Big Yellow Taxi", "Free Man in Paris", and "Help Me", the last two from 1974's best-selling Court and Spark.[4] Mitchell's soprano vocals, distinctive harmonic guitar style, and piano arrangements all grew more complex through the 1970s as she was deeply influenced by jazz, melding it with pop, folk and rock on experimental albums like 1976's Hejira. She worked closely with jazz greats including Wayne Shorter, Jaco Pastorius, Herbie Hancock, and on a 1979 record released after his death, Charles Mingus.[5] From the 1980s on, Mitchell reduced her recording and touring schedule but turned again toward pop, making greater use of synthesizers and direct political protest in her lyrics, which often tackled social and environmental themes alongside romantic and emotional ones. Mitchell's work is highly respected both by critics and fellow musicians. Rolling Stone magazine called her "one of the greatest songwriters ever,"[6] while Allmusic said, "When the dust settles, Joni Mitchell may stand as the most important and influential female recording artist of the late 20th century."[7] By the end of the century, Mitchell had a profound influence on artists in genres ranging from R&B to alternative rock to jazz.[8] Mitchell is also a visual artist. She made the artwork for each of her albums, and in 2000 described herself as a "painter derailed by circumstance."[9] A blunt critic of the music industry, Mitchell had stopped recording over the last several years, focusing more attention on painting, but in 2007 she released Shine, her first album of new songs in nine years.
