Well, I didn't mean to belittle the poor kitty! ;-) I don't hate that she wrote it that way - but maybe hate that it might turn some people off from the overall song. But then if she wrote for what other people thought, she wouldn't be Joni! > As far as TTT sounding too much the same, I've had several friends make the same complaint about >Hejira and Blue, and in reality, they both do have a unique consistancy to them. For some reason, >though, people are more open to the sounds of these albums. To me, it's just a matter of preference. Better not get me started on the beloved Hejira ;-) but TTT doesn't sound too much the same to me - I think it's a very diverse mixed bag (not in a bad way) that has enough brilliance scattered throughout in melody and lyrics to make it worthy. > I happen to prefer Picasso's blue period, but I still recognize the genius of his rose period.
