i would probably walk 50 miles every day to listen to A Case Of You one time and be catapulted back home. you don't ever have to be back on spotify.

Lately i’ve felt completely over and bored of podcasts. I’ve also kick started another of my annual joni mitchell deep dives, and with that came the pleasant revelation that her 6+ hour long box sets are readily available unabridged on most music streaming services (and soulseek)
Where podcasts rule is their ability to compress time. A long drive, a brutal running workout, or a day of household drudgery flies by when you have a good pod to put on. Joni’s boxsets have the same effect, but also have the bewitching joy of hearing entire iconic concerts, listening as her late 60’s hits continue to grow and transform as she hones her skills as a musician and writer, ultimately making some of the most sophisticated and breezy music ever made.
So drop that podcast and tune into Joni

While I love lots of music and have created way too many playlists, I always get fixated on the same five songs during a period of time, before inevitably finding new ones to be attached to (and “retiring” the previous ones into the void of my Spotify liked list).
I used to think it was a strange way to listen to music, especially since I can be so obsessed with a select # of songs and then just forget they exist, or only revisit years later. But when I do go back, or hear the songs play out in the wild, it’s so cathartic and bittersweet. I can remember the exact chapter of my life, how I was feeling at the time/what I was going through, and it reminds me how much time has passed and all the experiences I’ve had/the various people I’ve met (temporary or not). I can remember and feel the feelings, and then just allow it to fade back into the background.
I doubt I’m the only one listening to music this way, but if that’s not you, it’s a sentimental outlook to lean into!
