Vote here for your favourite lyric on Joni Mitchell's album "Blue"

Yeah “Boho Dance” and “Song for Sharon” really build on what she does here.

boring answer but the refrain of a case of you

"if you want me i'll be at bar"

it's too old and cold and settled in its ways here / oh but california

The lyric that inspired me to make this poll was "will you take me as I am? Strung out on another man?" WHAT A LINE. Any time Joni infuses a lyric with a sly and sad acknowledgement that she's a problem girl, I just die.

<3 <3

A line I omitted is "he loved me so naughty / it made me weak in the knees". Why? It's a great line but I can't describe it, I feel like putting the sexy lines in a poll is a bad idea.

Like, really? You had an argument with your lover and he said "I am as constant as the Northern Star"? And you said, "constantly in darkness?" You're having a fight about similes? This is the worst fucking fight I've ever heard.

Her lover at this time was apparently Leonard Cohen, so not entirely out of character.
