No, the song is about her stay in a sanatorium/health farm/whatever the politically correct term for mental institute is, and the therapy she undertook. If it's not on Google you can find it in any decent bio written about her. In book form. Hope you're sleeping better, your turn for next album when you feel like it, no rush though. Reply #81.

That's 'no rush though' as in 'when you feel like it', not 'no rush though' as in, 'no Rush albums though.' Hee hee. Reply #82. Jun 12 18, 2:09 PM |

Wow, had to take a peek at the lyrics to "Trouble Child". They make sense when you consider her past. Thanks for sharing. Reply #83. Jun 12 18, 2:40 PM |

Yay, Jen's back! Yes, Joni didn't like the therapy, she basically couldn't handle the fact the therapists thought they knew what made her tick but they really knew nothing at all. I believe it's someone else's turn to pick an album. Reply #84. Jun 13 18, 12:30 AM |

Okay, let's change this thread to the Ideal Album thread. I'll pick track one, and track two can be from an entirely different artist and so on with track three etc. It's another way of picking your favourite tracks and it will form the ideal album as created by us. Maximum of 12 tracks. For this first album at any rate which is hard rock and metal themed. So this album must open with a grabber. And the grabber is... 1)Sabbath Bloody Sabbath by Black Sabbath Reply #85. Jun 18 18, 9:02 PM |

2) Alive by Pearl Jam Yes? No? It's one of their only ones I really like. Reply #86. Jun 20 18, 10:00 AM |

5) Change that to 'Sultans of Swing' by Dire Straits. It's a bit more modern. Reply #90. Jun 21 18, 12:23 PM |

Was aiming for 12 different artists but since there are doubles, I'll go with Sabbath again, the Ronnie James Dio incarnation: Heaven And Hell. Any suggestions for the title of this album? Twelve Of The Best, As Seen On Funtrivia Music To Annoy The Neighbours With Rock, Rock, 'Til You Drop. That sort of thing Reply #93. Jun 21 18, 1:21 PM |

I've just realised this is meant to be rock and roll or metal themed. Neither of my choices were those. I'm not really a metal fan but for rock and roll I would choose Led Zeppelin's appropriately named 'Rock and Roll'. Reply #94. Jun 21 18, 4:13 PM |

My choice of Dire Straits would probably still qualify. Reply #95. Jun 21 18, 4:15 PM |

And I would therefore swap 'Comfortably Numb' for 'Caroline' by Status Quo. Reply #96. Jun 21 18, 4:19 PM |

Hey Mix, Comfortably Numb is definitely rock, that final guitar solo alone qualifies it as such. Reply #97. Jun 21 18, 6:41 PM |

sectant. Pink Floyd was categorised in a genre called 'progressive' here, or 'progressive rock' If it counts for your album, good. I'll keep it. Reply #98. Jun 22 18, 4:10 AM |

Yeah keep it. Anything loud and guitar driven counts. I saw Pink Floyd live in the late 80's, when Roger Waters had left the band, and David Gilmour's solo on Comfortably Numb just went on and on and on and on. It was stunning. Reply #99. Jun 22 18, 6:43 AM |
