MickinMD Posted July 5, 2018 Share #17 Posted July 5, 2018 You have to remember that at the time the song was written about doing away with Paradise, we were using pesticides that were greatly reducing wild bird populations because they were making the eggs fragile, the Ohio River literally caught fire for miles and miles and days and days, acid rain had destroyed all fish life in over 1000 lakes in the Northeastern USA, and women walking down the streets of Baltimore, Pittsburgh and other industrial towns would watch their hosiery partially disintegrate while they walked. Songs like Big Yellow Taxi and the movement it represents were part of the reason we don't have that anymore. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentonMakes Posted July 5, 2018 Share #23 Posted July 5, 2018 Counting Crows is one of those bands that released an amazing debut album out of the blue, and then never came close to matching it. I guess music history is full of such artists. Joni Mitchell's songwriting talents are top notch, but for the most part I find her voice quite disagreeable. However, I feel like I am coming around. It's going to be a long time before I "come around" to the little forced laugh she tacks onto the end of her version of "Taxi". yech I think her song "River" as linked above is nothing short of a masterpiece. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
