probably a basic ass answer but the longer i think about it the more i think this is it. it's not personally my favorite song, or even Joni song, but i'm always so astounded by how she brushes across such a vast spectrum of emotion in so few words. everything in it is functional and perfect.
you gotta see the artistry in tearing the place apart with me, baby
i love this song, it makes me happy and at the same time a bit sad idk how to explain it but i always feel kind of nostalgic when listening to it
(if you're interested, The Orion Experience made a very upbeat cover and it's very fun!!)
the simplest, unnameable ease, light, and joy. feels like everything makes sense again, you canβt really put a finger to it, but suddenly the world opens up to you and nothing feels like a secret anymore
