Joni Mitchell Found Unconscious, Rushed To Hospital

Perhaps, though my creative side is limited I don't see much out of the ordinary with her. But then again, I think the Internet ruined individual artists, by not only inspiring copycats, but exposing similar with less resources.


Edit: She seems old enough I should know about her (I'm 25) but I don't =(

Some people at any given time are out of the ordinary, some people are in the ordinary created by someone else. Your ordinary was partially created by her.

I hope she recovers OK. Apparently she has Morgellons, which may or may not actually exist, but I have no doubt its sufferers actually are . . . suffering. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morgellons

definitely suffering...but not for the reasons they think they are. Coworkers and I just had a discussion about this 2 minutes ago.

Yeah it's hard to know. The disease sounds bogus but at some point it ceases to matter whether the physical manifestations are real as long as the mind thinks they are.

I have a wonderful family friend who is a charming, vivacious 22-year-old girl. She was a serious athlete and dancer in high school. During her freshman year of college she got Lyme disease, and there was a delay in treatment. She has essentially been without the use of her legs for about 3 years now, and the rest of her body is wasting as well. She has received nearly every kind of test and/or treatment you can imagine. The doctors (including docs at places like the Mayo Clinic) are stumped. Meanwhile, she is cheerful and not at all a person inclined to look for sympathy. The current medical thinking about major post-Lyme symptoms is that they are psychosomatic, but it is indisputably the case that this girl is wasting away and would want nothing more than to be better. I have no idea if her physical symptoms are in some way psychosomatic but I am absolutely certain they are real.

Morgellons sounds highly questionable in terms of causation, but it also sounds like a really really shitty and uncomfortable thing to suffer from.

At long last, welcome to her lyrical light. She's been here all along, weaving her own brand of magic. Joni, I hope you make it all the way back.

She is brilliant.

"When the dust settles, Joni Mitchell may stand as the most important and influential female recording artist of the late 20th century",[8] and Rolling Stone called her "one of the greatest songwriters ever".[9] Her lyrics are noted for their developed poetics, addressing social and environmental ideals alongside personal feelings of romantic longing, confusion, disillusion, and joy.

I love this song... so beautiful.
