Nevím, jestli Joni Mitchell každý zná. Je to písničkářka, jejíž styl se vyvinul z jazzu, popu, rocku a různých jiných stylů. V albu Night Ride Home, z něhož pochází i stejnojmenná skladba v ukázce, se vrací ke svým začátkům. Je to v podstatě jen její hlas s akustickou kytarou. Celé album má zvláštní kouzlo a já zase doporučuji si ho poslechnout celé.
A ještě sem dávám web (v angličtině): http://jonimitchell.com/.

Once in a while
In a big blue moon
There comes a night like this
Like some surrealist
Invented this 4th of July
Night ride home
Hula girls
And caterpillar tractors in the sand
The ukulele man
The fireworks
This 4th of July
Night ride home
I love the man beside me
We love the open road
No phones till Friday
Far from the overkill
Far from the overload
Back at the bar
The band tears down
But out here in the headlight beams
The silver powerlines
Gleam
On this 4th of July
Night ride home
Round the curve
And a big dark horse
Red taillights on his hide
Is keeping right alongside
Rev for stride
4th of July
Night ride home
I love the man beside me
We love the open road
No phones till Friday
Far from the undertow
Far from the overload
Once in awhile
In a big blue moon
There comes a night like this
Like some surrealist
Invented this 4th of July
Night ride home
In a big blue moon
There comes a night like this
Like some surrealist
Invented this 4th of July
Night ride home
Hula girls
And caterpillar tractors in the sand
The ukulele man
The fireworks
This 4th of July
Night ride home
I love the man beside me
We love the open road
No phones till Friday
Far from the overkill
Far from the overload
Back at the bar
The band tears down
But out here in the headlight beams
The silver powerlines
Gleam
On this 4th of July
Night ride home

Red taillights on his hide

Tak tuhle píseň a především v tomhle videu úplně miluju! Asi bych se roztekl, kdyby se mi poštěstilo vidět Joni při takhle intimním vystoupení!
Jedna z mála zmínek o Joni na českém internetu! Díky, že zrovna takhle skvělé připomenutí :)
