Did You Guys Know Joni Mitchell Just Released a New Album?
I’m sorry to veer off the traditional menu of Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan, but I absolutely adore Joni Mitchell. I grew up with my dad singing me Joni Mitchell songs to help me sleep. I think Blue is one of the greatest albums in the history of, well, the world. I’ve been listening to it since I was a little girl, and it never gets old.

So I was really excited to hear that, at age 63, Mitchell has released her first album of new songs in nearly a decade, Shine.

I’m listening to it on Rhapsody right now, and it’s pretty damn cool. Her voice isn’t what it was in the ’70s, of course, but it’s still immensely calming and beautiful. Plus there’s a new version of “Big Yellow Taxi,” which is, to put it simply, ing incredible.

Anyway, the AP has an amazing interview with her with a ton of incredible quotes. I couldn’t choose what to say in my little blurb, so I just put the whole article after the jump.

And now we’ll return to talking about young, irresponsible people. I promise.
