π₯πππΎ ππΎππΈπ½πππ - 'πππππΉπ' (π£π«π¨π«)
The vibe: Pure minimalist folk and raw vulnerability
My hot take: The level of technical skill it takes to make just an acoustic guitar and a voice feel this layered and cinematic is actually insane. Joni was out here in 1969 writing lyrics that feel like a private voice note youβd send to your best friend after a breakup. The way she flips her vocal register on the title track is so smooth it basically invented the "indie girl" aesthetic decades before it was a thing.
My no skips track: *Both Sides, Now* - Itβs the blueprint for every introspective singer-songwriter track ever made
