i’ve been humming this song and thinking about it all day for some reason. it’s about her traveling the world, going to all these different countries, but still missing home. while joni isn’t a native californian (she’s canadian) i hear her love and longing for it in this song. her voice is just so delicate yet so powerful at the same and when she hits those runs with the high notes it tickles my brain. i don’t know how she does it man. the lyrics are great as well too, one of the best songwriters to ever live.
this song makes me love my home even more than i already do. even when i lived in texas for a few years i would wish a tornado would come and tear down the trailer park i lived in during tornado season in the summer, literally kneeling on the ground inside of the neighborhood shelter with my palms together, eyes closed, praying to god to let mother nature do its thing so i could go back home to california.
obviously, joni and i were in 2 very different situations…

I’ve listened to this song so many times in the past month I LOVE IT
I've looked at life from both sides now From win and lose and still somehow It's life's illusions I recall I really don't know life at all

One of my favorite songs of all time... my ex introduced me to sun kil moon and red house painters and I immediately fell in love.. Ghosts of the Great Highway is a stunning album and this song I played over and over and over and over its just soo beautiful and the lyrics make me want to cry 😭 mark kozelek is a weirdo man but he has made some of the best songs everrr imo🫢i feel le music in my bonessss 🎶
Sorry that I could never love you back I could never care enough in these last days Her tears fell on her pages Found me well on her words I don't know what to do or say Wading through warm canals and pools clear blue The Tuscarawas flowed into the Great Lakes Riding back where the highway met dead tracks The ground is now cement and glass, so far away
Heal her soul Carry her, my angel, Ohio Green, green youth: what about the sweetness we knew? What about what's good, what's true from those days? (Can't count to all the lovers I've burnt through So why do I still burn for you? I can't say Sorry that I could never love you back I could never care enough in these last days) BEST VERSE EVER
Children blessed, gather 'round the home she rests So pull and go over there Midwest, moon and sun Flashes bringing on my open eyes to lightning storm The touch of mist felt soft, felt warm on my face Gray, vague dreams, a million miles ago, you seem A star that I just don't see anymore Words long gone, lost on journeys we walked on Lost are voices are heard along the way (Sorry for never going by your door Never feeling love like that anymore) ahhhh

Song reminds me of being stuck in a desolate bumblefuck town longing to go back home - kinda like where I went to college. While I sit and look at the dull old signs and the tumbleweeds in abundance, and also coming to terms with my unrelenting, fidgeting boredom, I start to appreciate the charm and beauty of my surroundings and a whole new world opens up to me that I didn’t see before. God Bless ya, Cindy Lee. And God Bless America 🇺🇸

this movie is amazing. i love how they kept the original dialogue of the play and used it in the movies but still modernized the setting and characters. a lot of movies make romeo and juliet bland and boring but this one is vibrant, with fun wardrobes, religious iconography everywhere, and this movie feels so saturated. leonardo dicaprio is charming as always in this movie and he plays an amazing romeo to pair with precious juliet. i absolutely love the person who plays mercutio, they did an AMAZING job.
the problem with all the other romeo and juliet movies is that they always take themselves too seriously but you have to remember, this was meant for stage theatre and shakespeare was a playwright who loved to be humorous. all of that gets lost in every single other romeo and juliet movie except this one. it’s so fun, i highly recommend.
CAUTION: tears might be shed.

this is one of my favorite coming of age movies. has elle fanning in it and i always love anything with her in it. i feel like this movie should get more recognition than it does. super good soundtrack too, including bad brains and the talking heads.
