Amazing Music - "Circle Game" by Joni Mitchell

Written by Tim McCarthy | Mar 29, 2015 2:06:00 PM

Editor’s Note: Heard this on my iTunes the other day while running and realize what depth of thought there is in this one. No surprise for Ms. Mitchell who woke so many of my age group up early in their lives. This is the tale of the first twenty years (perhaps that’s what she was when she wrote it) and her perception of where she was headed is stunning. Wonder what she thinks now?   

Favorite lyric:  

“Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now
 Cartwheels turned to car wheels through town
 And they tell him take your time it won’t be long now
 Til you drag your feet to slow the circles down”
