Chelsea Morning is a great Joni Mitchell song and I guess I'm partial to her lyrics because they show me a slightly different perspective on life.

I definitely don't feel like I'm 71. I feel like I did when I was - between 30 and 40. The body ages. The mind doesn't.

Songwriting is different from music, although I don't deny now that it would be nice to have a little more background in music theory.

Crackling Rosie make me smile. God, if it lasts for an hour that's alright, to set the world right. Find us a dream that don't ask no questions.

I don't feel I have to write deep and meaningful songs; they can be light and meaningless. It has to do with the place I am in my life, a really good place.

But you make me sing like a guitar humming . . .

Then come and as we lay, beside this sleepy glade, there I will sing to you my Longfellow serenade.
