Roberta Joan "Joni" Mitchell, CC (née Anderson; born November 7, 1943) is a Canadian singer-songwriter and painter. Mitchell's work is highly respected by critics, and she has deeply influenced fellow musicians in a diverse range of genres. Rolling Stone has called her "one of the greatest songwriters ever", and AllMusic has stated, "When the dust settles, Joni Mitchell may stand as the most important and influential female recording artist of the late 20th century". Her lyrics are noted for their developed poetics, addressing social and environmental ideals alongside personal feelings of romantic longing, confusion, disillusion, and joy.
Mitchell began singing in small nightclubs in Saskatchewan and Western Canada and then busking in the streets and dives of Toronto. In 1965, she moved to the United States and began touring. Some of her original songs ("Urge for Going", "Chelsea Morning", "Both Sides, Now", "The Circle Game") were covered by folk singers, allowing her to sign with Reprise Records and record her debut album in 1968. Settling in Southern California, Mitchell, with popular songs like "Big Yellow Taxi" and "Woodstock", helped define an era and a generation. Her 1971 recording Blue was rated the 30th best album ever made in Rolling Stone's list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time". Mitchell switched labels and began moving toward jazz rhythms by way of lush pop textures on 1974's Court and Spark, her best-selling LP, featuring the radio hits "Help Me" and "Free Man in Paris".

Turbulent Indigo representó algo así como el resurgimiento de la grandiosa Joni; luego de años de discos mas experimentales, éste fue un regreso a sus raíces folk y pop, con la guitarra acústica bien presente en todos los temas, sin por eso perder la sofisticación, lo que logró que fuera “redescubierta” por el gran público y haya influenciado a tantísimas cantautoras (como el caso de Tori Amos, por poner un solo ejemplo). Ganador del Premio Grammy en la categoría “Disco Pop del Año”, no tiene desperdicio de principio a fin. Imprescindible.

All my girlfriends are gettin' married
They're gonna be brides, they're dressin' in white
They're droppin' like flies
All my girlfriends are talkin' 'bout babies
They're poppin' 'em out, and strollin' around
Get me out of this town
I ain't ready for a new last name
I don't wanna be nobody's ball and chain
The reason for a Friday night poker game
I don't wanna be another desparate housewife
Doin' dirty laundry on a Saturday night
I don't wanna be somebody's "Baby, bring me another Bud Light"
Whatever
'Cause all my girlfriends are gettin' married
They're gonna be brides, they're dressin' in white
They're droppin' like flies
And all my girlfriends are talkin' 'bout babies
They're poppin' 'em out, and strollin' around
Get me out of this town
Their hitchin' it up is wearin' me out
And tyin' the knot's all they're talkin' about
I'm so sick and tired of hearin' their vows
This bein' maid-of-honor's keepin' me from makin' out
'Cause all my girlfriends are gettin' married
Well, I swear every time I get Mama on the phone
She's tellin' me another good man got gone
It seems like every other dang weekend, I'm goin' back home
'Cause all my girlfriends are gettin' married
They're gonna be brides, they're dressin' in white
They're droppin' like flies
And all my girlfriends are talkin' 'bout babies
They're poppin' 'em out, and strollin' around
Get me out of this town
They're gonna be brides, they're dressin' in white
They're droppin' like flies
