Joni Mitchell

Joni Mitchell's voice is incredible. It's pretty much rediculous how wide her range is vocally. She is one of the rare singers that have to break point between their regular singing voice and their falsetto. She is rediculous and her song writing is pretty genius. Although sometime throughout the album, I feel as if alot of the songs sound the same. Maybe that's just me but I tended to get bored with it. I would listen to Joni Mitchell after an intense breakup. Because a lot of her songs just have this sad depressing mood with depressing lyrics.

I like the songs All I Want, California, and River. To me those were the songs that spoke to me personally.

In one of her songs, she delivers her lines in a way where it's like she's not really singing. She is singing, but it's mostly like a conversation, like the words aren't even meant to rhyme. And it reminded me a lot of this Deadmau5 song I like. It's about miscommunicating on the phone and all that. It's not exactly a DJ dance song, more of a ballad like Joni Mitchell does.

My favorite Joni Mitchell song on that album was "All I Want"
And that song where they basically don't sing, It's more like a conversation is this one. It's "Telemiscommunications" by Deadmau5

  1. That is a really good observation. I wasn't familiar with that deadmau5/imogen heap track.

    O.k., you write really well, but you need to get some make up blogs together before you get swallowed up by one acts. I didn't put in zeros for the weeks of the musical, but I did put them in for the grades due today. Give me a shout when you get some assignments up for me to grade.
