Her 1971 album Blue is still widely regarded as one of the greatest albums of all time — an intimate, emotional masterpiece that laid her soul bare and influenced generations of artists to come.
Just days ago, Mitchell was seen joyfully revisiting the stage, reminding the world that her spirit and artistry remain as powerful as ever. As fans and fellow musicians reflect on her incredible legacy, today serves as both a celebration and a reminder of the woman whose songs gave voice to love, loss, and the human condition.
Happy 82nd, Joni Mitchell — thank you for the music, the words, and the courage to share your truth with the world.
