Love the part where he goes, "'My favorite song,' she said, and it was Joni singin 'Help me, I think I'm falling'" — and he breaks into the melody, just like Joni does with the Frankie Valli song on the radio in "This Flight Tonight"
My all time favorite Prince song: a weird, warped little blip of a thing from his Sign O’ the Times LP that bites from Joni Mitchell, spins a tale of instant attraction + the dangers thereof and tells you basically all you need to know about the dude on what would have been his 66th born day. 🎂 💜
I wrote a tribute to him just after he passed for Magnet: https://magnetmagazine.com/2016/04/21/r-i-p-prince-1958-2016/
incredible classic folk music. i am a huge fan of live recordings and the songs that are prove to be no exception. dylan comes in for - one of my favourite renditions of - It Ain't Me Babe and of course the crowd looses their shit, which is very funny. i love this album. saying that is a bit redundant because i wouldn't be blogging if i didn't, but it bears repeating. I LOVE THIS ALBUM!!
i hope you are well, friend.
