An Open Letter to Joni Mitchell

(Since she decided we shouldn’t hear Both Sides Now)

Trevor in Timley

Dear Joni,

I just heard the news! You’re in the fight! And you’re on our team!

Mrs Trevor in Trimley and I are thrilled by your protest. It’s like the sixties all over again! Someone had to show those free expression types at Spotify what for. The last thing we want is to hear both sides now!

There really is only one side to this whole argument. Ours! Exceptional talents like us Joni, with so much love in our hearts, don’t need to listen to other opinions, we already know they’re rubbish. They must be, because we’re right! It’s very simple logic!!

Inspired by your oh so brave and well-considered stance, I have just this morning written to the supplier of the paper I use for my letters. My demand was simple. Stop allowing your paper to be used by any physician or scientist who might write opinions on it that run contrary to those of Joni Mitchell!

They either comply with your views Joni, or I’m looking for another paper supplier! Ker-pow!! That’ll show ‘em! It’s time to stop this rampant freedom of expression! That’s the virus we really need to stamp out!

To further that end Joni, and in your honour, I have decided to form a protest movement that I am hoping will grow from strength to strength across the world. I’ve called it, Protest Against People Exploring Things From A Variety Of Angles! Or PAPETFAVOA for short. (A memorable name which I think you’ll agree trips easily off the tongue after only a handful of attempts at saying it.)

The good news doesn’t end there! As we evidently both agree that the free expression of an individual must be denied if a majority of people disagree with it (as has always been the case in science!) I have taken the liberty of making some suggested changes to the lyrics of your beautiful song Both Sides Now and have retitled it One Side Now, which I think more aptly captures where we’re both coming from!

Be aware, my suggested version is shorter. Some of your original lyrics that once read like transcendent poetry are now frivolous to articulating a socially responsible message that serves the greater good, so I’ve cut them.

But here’s the big news I’m really hoping will make your day!

Mrs Trevor in Trimley and I invite you, Joni Mitchell, to our friend Dave’s garage/recording studio here in Trimley St Mary to record this new version with us, with ALL proceeds (after expenses: tea bags, digestives, milk, etc) going to PAPETFAVOA! (I can hold my own on a ukulele and Mrs Trevor in Trimley has always played an enthusiastic triangle.)

As for my suggested changes, you’ll notice that I didn’t alter the lyric, “I really don’t know love at all.” It seems more poignant now than ever.

One Side Now

By Joni Mitchell and Trevor in Trimley (based on Joni Mitchell’s Both Sides Now)

Rows and floes of angel hair
And vaccine castles in the air
And faces covered everywhere
I like COVID this way

But misinformers block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But they got in my way

I’ve looked at this from one side now
From my perspective to which all must bow
It’s just illusions they believe
They really don’t know this disease

But now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I’ve changed
I turned away, there’s nothing gained
From listening anyway

I’ve looked at life from one side now
Learned nothing new, and still somehow
It’s my right to censor you
I really don’t know love at all

Looking forward to getting in the studio with you Joni!

Yours sincerely,
Trevor In Trimley

Brilliant. Thank you. But we shouldn’t leave out the other rock “icons”, like Neil Young

No Talkin’ In the “Free” World
(Sung to tune of “Rockin’ In the Free World”)

There’s covid on the street
Dead, white and blue
   People droppin’ from their feet
People dyin’ in ther shoes
   And there’s a warnin’ sign
on the road ahead
There’s a lot of people sayin’
  lies to make us all dead
  They feel like Satan
but I’ll censor them
   To make people forget it
any way I can.

Stop your talkin’ in the “free” world
Stop your talkin’ in the “free” world
…..etc.

Hey Neil:
Head on out to the desert on your horse with no name
Where there ain’t no talk for to give you no pain.
And learn better grammar. Moron.

FYI, sorry for a pedantic nitpick to your rant, but “A Horse with No Name” was written by Dewey Bunnell, and was a 1971 hit for his band “America”.

For some reason, it was mistaken for a Neil Young song early on, and this misattribution metastasized and became a “settled” error in pop culture. Just letting you know. Rant on!

Right after Joni Mitchell made her pronouncement that people are spreading lies and people are dying, two of my musician friends wrote to me within an hour of each other requesting that I remove their names from my published albums because…. wait for it…. they don’t want to be associated with me IN ANY WAY.

Gasp! It was as if I’d dropped a literal bomb on their grannys’ houses.

I have another musician friend who also has now been sidelined by his former bandmates for similar reasons.

The only thing I can say with surety in this Covid age is that we have an extreme brainwashing situation in our societies — something I’ve known for a long time, but just didn’t realize how bad it really was….. until, well, Joni. Pretty sad how she sabotaged her own legacy.

Anyway, loved the essay, Trevor in Trimley. I needed to laugh, but also to cry…..

Thanks Trev. How bout this. ‘-)

“Woodstock”

I came upon a child of Pharma

He was walking along the road

And I asked him, where are you going

And this he told me…

I’m going on down to Wall Streets farm

I’m gonna join in a Pharma ‘n’ roll gang

I’m gonna camp out on the land

I’m gonna try and needle my soul free

We are PharmaDust

We are beholden

And we’ve got to get ourselves

Back to the graveyard

Then can I walk beside you

I have come here to feel the Pfizer Needle

And I feel to be a cog in something turning

Well maybe it is just the time of year

Or maybe it’s the time of Pharma

I don’t know who I am

But you know life is for learning

We are PharmaDust

We are beholden

And we’ve got to get ourselves

Back to the graveyard

By the time we got to PharmaStock

We were half a million strong

And everywhere there was fear and hysteria

And I dreamed I saw the Pfizzers

Riding shotgun in the sky

And they were turning into syringes

Above our nation

We are PharmaDust

Billion year old carbon

We are beholden

Caught in the Pharma devil’s bargain

And we’ve got to get ourselves

Out of the Pharma death garden

The WEF are partnering with Spotify, so now you know why the cryptocracy created the Joe Rogan, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell psyop.

From the WEF’s own website which ties into their biometric, social credit, CBDC payment system, digital identity to access the www:

“SPOTIFY CONNECT

Extending the touchpoints and avenues by which users can stream music.

Key facts

  • In the entertainment space, Spotify¹ has become a pioneering example of an atomized service, achieving ubiquity by enabling access through multiple third-party touch-points (e.g. Sonos, Ford, iOS, Android and Samsung Smart TVs).
  • The company has released Software Development Kits (SDKs) for iOS and Android developers and more recently launched the Spotify + Uber integration, allowing users to remotely control music in enabled Uber rides.

Uniqueness

  • Spotify is extending the touchpoints and avenues by which users can stream music through their service by collaborating across sound system, home and auto entertainment providers.
  • Spotify Connect sets up a connection between Hi-Fi and Wi-Fi – allowing streaming directly via Spotify and not via a user’s phone (which instead can serve as a remote and remain free to use for other activities).

Value

  • Spotify is valued at over $10 billion.
  • Services 50 million users, with over 12.5 million paying subscribers.
  • Approximately 30% of revenue is retained by the company, while approximately 70% is split among rights holders.

Approach

  • Spotify has created connections with 30+ partners.
  • Spotify utilizes a Freemium business model, with potential to drive conversions from new partnerships and platforms.
  • In order to benefit from the interoperability that Spotify Connect offers, users must subscribe to Spotify Premium ($9.99/mo). 

Spotify Connect is one of more than 100 case studies identified as part of the World Economic Forum’s Digital Transformation of Industries initiative. An overview of the DTI program can be found here.“

Hi Paul. Yes. Exactly. 

There’s no articles in magazines or newspapers explaining how the lockdowns, tyranny, looming technocracy, vaccines, social credit and biometric ID align specifically with the planned, global transition from a linear, production economy, where we once produced goods and services (which were highly profitable [and wasteful, polluting etc.,] to the Cryptocracy, to a licensing/rentier economy that is circular and digitally controlled by conglomerates, all owned and controlled by The Crown/Vatican and monitored (spied on) through intelligence agencies and the military.  

This piece on YouTube is quite interesting: How we are being programmed to switch from a linear economy to a digital, circular economy. Ie; Klaus Schwab’s 4th Industrial Revolution.

“Extending the touchpoints and avenues”

Well, if shoving your pop heros, their lyrics and music videos down other peoples throat in news media articles like this, including the comments sections, is not about ‘extending the touchpoints and avenues . The WEF and the tech companies do the game of dominating culture and over-shouting everything else better than you guys. That pop music went down this avenue is only inherent to it, the WEF services you to provide you bread and play,and their system of shoving it through everybodies throat, and to dominate the whole culture is just a step up compared what the pop masses have been doing themselves for decades.

Every time these intel hacks put their names into the news cycle, their listens or views go up. IE, their royalties.

It directly affects their own income.

It wouldn’t surprise me if Intel Agency reps or handlers go straight to their management and offer a flat $$$ incentive for publicly speaking out on “issues” ie; intelligence created narratives, such as censoring vaccine “misinformation”.

Fans of these has-beens, are “triggered” to listen again to the old songs from their youth. That’s how mind control, hypnosis, nostalgia, behavioral science, drugs, alcohol and psychological operations work. Through unconscious, subliminal triggers.

Like many others in my age group, I enjoyed Joni Mitchell’s music when I was quite young. Singer/songwriters come and go, especially after Sony Productions completely butchered the recording industry in the early 80’s. Alas…

The singer-songwriter has been plagued in recent years with health problems, including brain trauma, post-polio health issues and Morgellons syndrome 
Joni said: ‘Morgellons is a slow, unpredictable killer – a terrorist disease: it will blow up one of your organs, leaving you in bed for a year’ 

If you look up recent pictures of Ms.Mitchell, she appears quite elderly and very ill. Everyone gets a chance to be nothing…

I learnt yesterday that Lukas Nelson , band leader of Promise of the Real is a young global leader. Neil Young cut two albums with them and toured with them as his backing band between 2015 and when touring stopped early 2020.
As a very big fan of Neil Young – and Joni Mitchell – this is more then disappointing. As much as I accept -regretfully – that people, even those we admire, might be taken in by this psyop, and I am prepared to give the apparently nearly-dead Joni Mitchell the benefit of the doubt, what the fuck is Neil thinking of… !!??

Joni Mitchell’s ties to the Laurel Canyon gang always made me wonder about her real allegiances. Here she has proven herself by her actions, that she is and has been nothing more than a controlled agent of the CIA created 60’s counter culture movement that was created to subvert the real anti-war movement of the day.

If she wanted to be left alone she should have kept her mouth shut in public. To me, it just seems a desperate attempt to stay relevant, like most celebrities today.

I’m inclined to wonder the same thing. I haven’t actually seen any footage of Joni saying anything about this. I’m giving her the benefit of the doubt until I do.

I still feel that Joni is the greatest songwriter of the 20th century, and while I’ve accepted that many of my 60s heroes have not exactly risen to the moment we’re in – and many have really bit the big one – I’m not casting Joni in with them until I see some proof.

I’d like to think that the woman who saw through the BS of the music biz years ago would be in the ranks of Van Morrison, Clapton, Dylan and the few other 60s icons who appear to have retained their courage and clarity in this moment. Hey, I can hope…:)

They were all absolutely awful people. Commodities designed to take the potential for revolutionary change down the garden path. The idea that these people were heroes is just baffling. Boomers were led to believe that consuming the corporate-generated entertainment products of the period constituted some form of rebellion against the system. Just ridiculous. Joni Mitchell saw through the BS? I saw an interview with her years ago where she talked about how important it was for her to enjoy vacationing in Hawaii while she was young. Very deep stuff.

Boomers werent led to believe anything. Boomers desires and wants drove the consumer system. So what if it made a few corporations RICH. Boomers didnt need to be encouraged. God invented credit cards for them just so they could indulge.
And now they are being told to feel guilty if they squander their “kids inheritance” to maintain their consuming, spendthrift lifestyles…

Absolutely right Clyde. I’ve never heard anyone else say it before. There was never a cult that wasn’t cultivated. Except for a few songs by Dylan and Mitchell, but more by Ochs and Paxton and The Last Poets it was one big self-righteous hedonistic cult. I’m not at all surprised Young came out against Joe Rogan either. I’m surprised he didn’t just lay low and enjoy his filthy lucre like all the rest are doing if they’re still kicking. All those major cult stars of the 60’s were on the take. It was a very hedonistic and idolatrous time when a vocabulary of about ten words and phrases got you in. Remember?: Heavy, man; Far out, look at the pigs, He’s a head, man. She’s my old lady/my old man, He’s ballin’ his chick, s/he laid a lid on me, man. etc. The 50’s didn’t start til Kerouac’s On the Road in ’57 and the 60’s didn’t start til Golden Gate Park and Haight Ashbury in ’67. Woodstock, except for a few colorful performances (Country Joe, Canned Heat, Hendrix) was a lot of loud acting out and pandering to the cult – which is what almost all pop music still is. Don’t believe me? Watch the Superbowl halftime show tomorrow. I’ve been a lifelong folkie from before long hair, even before early Dylan. It always amazed me back then how much my generation aped these airheads. The ’60’s was a short lived middle class mock rebellion that never reached down to the masses of poor, to those over 30, to the “unhip.” When I saw the Kent state murders, the murder of Fred Hampton and the Attica repression, I knew the 60’s were over and the same bastards were still in charge who’d always been in charge. The ’60’s were an educational passing spectacle for some individuals like me but so little good came of those years precisely because the .01% and the well paid high priesthood of Dylan and Joni and Pearl and Young were steering it into the wilderness.

Are you channeling J. Edgar Hoover or are your comments a joke?

That entire music movement and the promoted bands pushed onto the public – where girls were paid to scream and faint – were a psyop by the governments, intel agencies and music labels. These governments have extensive behavioral science and research departments, who through intel agencies and arms length corporations such as film, media, music, tv, manipulate human beings, using artificial, faux culture and faux news.

The intel agencies were supplying the Jones generation and Boomers, a token rebellious image to embrace, to replace action and real revolution.

Millions of people were (and still are) being mind controlled by their governments and behavioral scientists through the media and “entertainment”.

The garbage music poured into radios and TVs, during the 60’s and 70’s was a joint British and American intelligence operation.

TV is a brainwashing device (along with radio) that literally changes brainwaves to a passive, receptive, unquestioning state.

When I read your comments, they are so absurd they come across as bad satire.

I did just that last weekend. My son and his wife gave me the palm and rudely told me to stop talking. They and my daughter’s family were visiting for the weekend. My son and his wife are vaccinated and thinking the same for their kids who are 6 and 8. They did it so they could travel freely. In my mind, this could not get more selfish. Foregoing the health of their children so they can travel freely is how I interpret it. My son’s mother-in-law is a retired airline exec with No. 2 standby status which is a big deal. They have been refusing to view any of the information I have dug up over the last 2 years. I threw them out of my house and promised to cut them out the inheritance if they vaccinate the kids. Not kidding. Life is about genetics and promoting your off spring. Period. The evidence is piling up that vaccination leads to sterilization. If I want to follow the laws of nature and take care of my descendants as nature wants me to, then I need to put my investment in my daughter’s kids. She fully intends to fight against their vaccination. It is simple biology. Somewhere out there there is a link to a Gary Larsen Farside cartoon on the purpose of life……….. My son is about to learn the hard way. At this point, I would rather invest in a colony of house cats. Instead, It will go to my daughter’s kids.

Wow. You are hitting all the psychological operations and warfare in one fell swoop by contradicting yourself and denying the existence of the psyops simultaneously.

Why shouldn’t they preserve their wealth for future generations *IF* consuming is a con? All they have is their properties (LAND), which is the real aim of the Covid-Climate Fraud Operation, ie: Agenda 21-The Great Reset. They want the boomers’ land. Their houses. The cryptocracy want all the land in the world and to take away all private property and possessions from the 99%.

Rolf Harris. You mean the same Rolf Harris that’s a child molester?

Boomers were psyopped and brainwashed since birth, Mr. Mason-Government Agent.

Nobody wants more consumer items! Besides the celebrities and billionaires who can’t own enough yachts, private jets, diamonds, ten thousand dollar suits, luxury cars, and million dollar art-filled, properties.

Boomers, who were never wealthy, were conned into consuming all their income through branding, marketing, advertising, subliminal messaging and television, being PROGRAMMED to consume insatiably, to drink and drug themselves, and to think of themselves as consumers, or taxpayers, or employees, or employers, or voters, instead of free, independent individuals.

I’m not discounting them or any part of the music industry.

All music has to be published and copyrighted by music labels, ie; corporations, ie; legal fictions.

Sooner or later, these smaller labels are consumed by larger ones, which are controlled and owned by the merchant banking cartel, as are all large corporations, including incorporated municipalities known as “governments”.

I think of electronic music, punk, new wave, hip hop, rap etc., and even current EDM as alternative options (niches within counter culture) for meaningless rebellion (supposedly against authority but usually resulting in drinking and drugs [self harm] and then a manufactured, culture separation gap from the home or parents) and narcissistic, pointless self-indulgence. Music and drugs leads to partying, promiscuity, and either university, or blue collar jobs and both of those steps involve moving out of the family home/unit and away from the parents to become separate, individual consumers, voters, taxpayers and employees in the service, power, wealth and perpetuation of the state.

Teens attempting to fit into new, peer social groups, or cliques (defined through their music choices or preferences) based on archetypes created for them by behavioral scientists, psychologists and the intelligence community.

“On January 28, Young’s longtime friend and fellow polio survivor Joni Mitchell also demanded that her music be removed from Spotify in solidarity with “Neil Young and the global scientific and medical communities on this issue“. NHS doctor and author Rachel Clarke tweeted: “Both Neil Young & Joni Mitchell… know painfully well how much harm, suffering & avoidable death anti-vaxxers can cause.””

Ukraine wouldn’t be a proxy war. Naive to think so, in the extreme.

Neil Young in 1985:

But Neil is our saint! Quick! Damage control!:

https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/neil-young-homophobic-aids/

Rolling Stone added, “Needless to say, Young almost certainly regrets that horrific statement and quickly moved away from right-wing politics. He wrote the furious anti-George H.W. Bush screed “Rockin’ in the Free World” in 1989 and was one of George W. Bush’s most vocal critics in the 2000s.”

almost certainly regrets”?

And as for being one of GWB’s most vocal critics, don’t forget Neil also wrote that impeccably researched ode to Flight 93, “Let’s Roll”:

Let’s roll for freedom

Let’s roll for love

We’re going after Satan

On the wings of a dove

Let’s roll for justice

Let’s roll for truth

Let’s not let our children

Grow up fearful in their youth

The point is not what these hacks are saying, said or even doing. We know it’s all hypocrisy and a psyop.

The important part of the psyop is to first, create the false idols, by promoting and pushing these people onto the public through the media (Tavistock/CIA) in that 60’s 70’s era. And then vilifying or using these agents later, in a false scapegoat/effigy/witch-hunt psychodrama.

These psyops enable governments to stay in power by deliberately channeling the public’s anger and frustration onto an effigy or false idol.

It’s also a shell game. The more the media (intel agency narratives) distract the public using psyops, ie; manufactured news narratives, the more confused and divided the masses become, thereby preventing them from potentially organizing to take down their oppressors, murderers and enslavers.

This process dissipates public anger at the obvious corruption, racketeering, and tyranny by illegitimate and unlawful governments. It additionally creates a pretext or faux precedents, to enact censorship laws and eradicate free speech under the upcoming social credit – digital – biometric ID, to access and use the internet.

Fauci is an exception. What is his motive? He’s got all the money he needs. Why doe he keep pushing the evil narratives when he could easily drop out of the game and retire?

Steve Kirsch published a video of an interview on Rumble with a funeral home director about the unusual number of blood clots in her “clients” which were making embalming difficult. The focus was on the high percentage. It was totally anecdotal but still significant.

What I found interesting was her comment about why our government is so adamant about getting everyone vaccinated when it is clear there is no benefit and now we have all of these terrible side effects from clotting.

She speculated that there is another underlying and important reason to get the vaccine that they are not telling us about.

I have found my mind wandering in that direction as well while trying to make sense out of why such an evil thing is being promoted by so many people in positions of power.

“Everybody” has not waited until it is safe. I bought “Crossing the Rubicon” the month it was released to the public. There were “inconvenient details” put into the public almost from the outset. Even CBC in Canada had mainstream journalists accidentally lifting the edges of the tent from the outset. The 9/11 psy-op had significant failings from the start, but like any large-scale complex military operation, but it worked well enough. It’s clear that the old guys who planned it did not understand the significance of the internet, which is why they shored that aspect up considerably for Covid. Think of the development of tanks, aircraft, radars and jets from 1939 just to the Korean War atrocity. Leaps and bounds. It is obvious from the transcripts of Event 201 that they knew the dominance of the digital communicatrion sphere was absolutely crucial to the success of the operation.

Having just wandered through the tar pits of twitter, it’s intensely depressing to note the duped Left who are now seemingly all that’s left. And the notion of a dividing line between them and the old concept of the Right is complete manufactured fantasy. The Left/Right paradigm is an indication of a now obsolete species – indeed a class in itself who correspond to the old petit bourgeois, although it has become unwise to dabble in that terminology now, so corrupt is it. The true underlying mentality revealed by these tweets is of a dismal and excruciating babyish gullibility before the media posing in a fraudulent “sophisticated” tone which itself is simply absorbed from that same venal media.

Utter nonsense. Covid is entirely the manifestation of private, corporate dominance of the political and economic spheres. That is as far right as it gets. The state apparatus during Covid has been completely subservient to supranational corporate demands. This notion that the left/right paradigm has been rendered meaningless is the product of the right-wing apparatus of media, think-tanks and captured academia. Just because the right-wing apparatus supplanted actual left-wing discourse with identitarian rubbish it does not in any way alter the real dynamic, which is that of speculative-finance, or late-stage capitalism, recreating itself even as it collapses.

you’re both right, stop arguing. the apparent contradiction can be resolved by consistent use of the term “fake left”, or at least quotation marks around the term “left”, to make clear the distinction between the real left of 50 or 100 years ago, and the current captured, elite-funded apparatus of vile, self-serving, middle-class-liberal idiots, poseurs, and agents.

I have often said that the covid phenomenon is like the 9/11 phenomenon times a thousand. With 9/11 Noam Chomsky amongst others revealed himself as a corporate stooge. After which, the very thought of “going back” and aligning myself with him made me want to vomit. To do that would be like trying to line up with a bunch of kids who were waiting for Santa. You can’t go back to that naiveté.

And I see that these Lefts who so eagerly shilled it up for covid and trashed the real opposition are now quite happily lining up to take the permitted dissident line re: Russia and the Ukraine. Indeed, a certain Miss Johnstone is even making noises about CIA involvement. Her title is: “Proposal: Just Run All Western News Media Directly Out Of CIA Headquarters” But she doesn’t mean covid!

Well I just can’t do it! I can’t go back and stand in line with this Left that makes all the old noises but doesn’t apply them to covid! Here’s the biggest monstrosity in your own backyard … and you are desperate to avoid it!

You’re supposed to engage in criticism and self-criticism, and work from there. Ranting about people who have been subjected to fifty years of cutting-edge, sophisticated and all-encompassing propaganda when the problem remains private interests amassing endlessly greater control of the socio-economic realm is pretty silly.

And the reason why private interests are amassing endlessly greater control of the socio-economic realm is precisely because people have been subjected to fifty years of cutting-edge, sophisticated and all-encompassing propaganda. And covid is the cream of that process. The “Left” think covid is the revolution.

This “Left” are every single formal “Left” organisation. The World Socialist Website, Counterpunch, Jacobin, Caitlin Johnstone etc. I have never seen anyone on the official Left even query the covid tale. Indeed, they have done quite the opposite – they have insisted that covid is even more deadly than the mainstream say and bellowing about “Far Right Denialists. The only Left ones to call it out have been isolated renegades like Phil Greaves and John Steppling and only the former understands how thoroughly the Left have been utterly corrupted.

I prefer Dr. Robert Malone’s summation better. Mass Formation Psychosis. The MSM was so pissed when he first threw this one out there. They went crazy. They apparently had been steaming already about the first label Covidian Cult because that was their way of retaliating against Malone’s summation because they started calling the antivaxx movement a cult.

On one of her early live albums, Joni Mitchell stated her frustration with being asked to keep singing the same songs over and over at venues by comparing it to someone asking Vincent Van Gogh to paint “Starry Night” over and over again.

I relate this seemingly insignificant bit of trivia because it’s actually extremely significant. Besides revealing her arrogance comparing herself to one of the greatest painters who ever lived, it shows her utter lack of perspective.

Singing a song is not comparable to painting a picture but rather to seeing the painting. Not singing a song would be comparable to covering the painting whenever people enter the museum where it hangs.

A song requires a listener even more than a painting requires a viewer to complete its existence.

It may be unfortunate, but art is more dependent upon an audience than almost any other human activity.

Composing the song would have been much closer, but then the technique and inspiration required to ‘compose a song’ these days is minimal.

A song today has to sound familiar and even predictable.
Only the text may show originality, and how often does that happen…?

The album was Miles of Aisles and there’s an audience member who shouts out, “Joni, you have more class than Mick Jagger, Richard Nixon, or Gomer Pyle-combined!” whilst Joni laughs in … embarassment? Whatever it was she was sure to keep it in.

The best thing about Joni Mitchell?

Mitchell was born on November 7, 1943.
As per the SSA, the cohort life expectancy for those born in the mid-40’s was about 74 yrs.

1943+74 = 2017.
Hence, Mitchell is now 4-5 years past her expiration date.
She is left living merely on borrowed time.
(perhaps likely the reason for her seeming gripping fear of death).

Whereas some entertainment is timeless, Mitchell’s is largely fadish & easily fleeting.

Goodnight sweet “princess”!

That’s an average, which is not the same as the age at which most people die. In fact it could be an age at which no one at all actually dies. In fact, sadly, once Joni made 70, her average life expectancy became another 17 years! 😱

I was number 64 in the last year of the Vietnam draft lottery. It was also my high school football jersey number. Seared into my memory. We who were in the lottery paid attention closely to what was going on. I watched the drawing in a dorm TV room that was packed with male students. I was not happy. I had watched two previous lotteries for older brothers who’s numbers were in the 300’s. Not fair. Fortunately, the draft had ended. Anti war music was important. It gave us a sense of hope that the war would end before it was “our time” to go. Even though she and other musicians “fought for me”, she still embarrasses me. The chemical residues left over from everything baby boomers were exposed to (before the EPA was created in 1970) most likely contributed to her present condition. But still…….. My brother-in-law is her age and is not doing well either. Advanced brain deterioration has become a burden on my sister. We have paid a price as a generation through chemical experimentation and are now showing the fruits of that experimentation. Not really that different than the clot shots. Oligarchs are staying just ahead of the curve, I guess. Nothing has changed.

The first part is entirely true. The public do want the draconian measures because they have been terrified. The protesters where I live are to a very large extent a “right wing minority”. Covid is occurring at a point in history where the traditional bourgeois conservatives are being oppressed as a new model of finance-capitalism that no longer depends on a working class is emerging. Thus folks who are right-wing and generally supportive of capitalist power are revolting as they experience the force of the state in a way that used to be reserved for the working class and the precariate.
In my own workplace the active opponents to Covid policy consisted by and large of fundamentalist Christians and libertarians. Rejection of Covid policies was the only thing we had in common, and I was a minority within a minority.

I know it must be disappointing for many, having had rock and roll (or some other popular flavour) as part of their identity since they were a wee wain… having traveled many miles through lifes tragedy with tom and dick and harry and their tuneless cacophonies and nursery rhyme sentiment… endlessly re-experienced on plastic disks or electrons and screens.. crushed in drafty halls to observe them tunelessly falling around high on drugs..

but unfortunately the entertainment-plex is just another facet of the modern control grid…

Mitchell “felt disillusioned about the high priority given to technical skill over free-class creativity [at Alberta University of the Arts] and felt out of step with the trend toward pure abstraction and the tendency to move into commercial art“.

And yet here she stands, the very product of commercial “art” (Mitchell’s albums have been released primarily on the major corporate labels, like Universal and Warner, or sub-labels owned by those corporate majors).

And as such her “art” is largely controlled by corporate entertainment Executives, A&R goons and PR propagandists.

As in the words of Political Scientist and Philosopher, Hannah Arndt:
The most radical revolutionary will become a conservative the day after the revolution.
“Conservatism” herein meaning a reliance on the status-quo, establishment, etc. (not as in partisan “conservatism”).

How do you turn an “anti-establishment”, “outsider”, “rogue” and such type member of society into a pro-establishment & systematic shill?
Give ’em enough money & stuff.
Then suddenly they want the establishment system to protect their precious stuff.

Also in the words of Arndt:
The moment we no longer have a free press, anything can happen. What makes it possible for a totalitarian or any other dictatorship to rule is that people are not informed; how can you have an opinion if you are not informed?

The concept of “free press” not meaning controlled/censored only by governments, but controlled/censored by corporate Lords as well.
You don’t have a truly “free press” when a few Big Asset Management firms & Big Banks control most of that press (including supposed “competitors”).

Historically, Entertainment & Propaganda have always gone hand-in-hand.
One of the best ways to control the mass populations, is to control those things that influence them.

If you can influence the leaders, either with or without their conscious cooperation, you automatically influence the group which they sway.
-Edward Bernays, Propaganda-

But perhaps one of the most interesting parts of this ridiculous Mitchell saga is the fact that she has been a lifelong smoker.
With the CDC identifying smoking as the leading underlying cause of early death and chronic illness.
Including wreaking havoc on the immune system, necessary to ward off disease & illness, like the flu and “covid” and such.

Noting that the largest owners of the largest Big Tobacco companies are the same CARTEL that exist as the largest owners of the largest Big Pharma “vaccine” makers.

GOTTA SMOKE MORE SO THAT WE CAN SELL MORE “LIFE SAVING” PHARMACEUTICALS!

If they didn’t work for the man, no one would ever have heard them – maybe a good thing?

But then, the same can be said for the classical icons – Beethoven and almost all the others, who had – HAD TO HAVE – aristocratic patrons.

When humanity allows a few psychopaths to acquire virtually all the wealth it produces, just try NOT working for the man and see how far you get.

now now ‘howard’.. don’t be disingenuous… we all know Beethoven based his most memorable motifs on ‘common’ drinking songs…

and of course he was a socialist who championed the Republic and social justice for the lower classes, until ole Bony killed all his friends accidentally on purpose… (though as you noted he would fill his purse with aristocratic blood money)….

and of course he was outspoken and boorish and didn’t suffer fools… drank too much and no doubt dabbled in laudenum.. stumbling round the stage stone deaf and stoned drunk…

but at least he was honest…
