Post-1980 POX, chronological order:

Chinese Café
You Dream Flat Tires
Good Friends
Impossible Dreamer
My Special Place
The Beat of Black Wings
Passion Play
Man From Mars
Stay In Touch
Facelift

Nothing from Turbulent Indigo (too chilly) or Shine (uninspired).

― Halfway there but for you, Wednesday, 31 August 2022 20:36 (three years ago)

The version of Tea Leaf Prophecy with Herbie Hancock from 2007 deserves to be in there, imo. It's also still on Spotify.

2. Help Me
3. Woman of Heart and Mind
4. Two Grey Rooms
5. Court and Spark

10. Carey

― Malevolent Arugula (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 31 August 2022 20:50 (three years ago)

Should be "My Secret Place" on my list.

"Two Grey Rooms" is often regarded as a highlight of this period, but the melody never touched me.

― Halfway there but for you, Wednesday, 31 August 2022 21:01 (three years ago)

how do you not have “come in from the cold” on your list, halfway?

― brimstead, Wednesday, 31 August 2022 22:28 (three years ago)

It would nearly make the list, maybe it feels a little "generalized" compared to the ones I picked, like she's playing to the crowd.

― Halfway there but for you, Thursday, 1 September 2022 01:06 (three years ago)

How so?

― Malevolent Arugula (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 1 September 2022 01:08 (three years ago)

I really need to dig into the post-1980 material, thanks

off the top of my head

People's Parties
You Turn Me On (I'm A Radio)
Coyote
Dreamland
The Jungle Line
Cary
Big Yellow Taxi
A Strange Boy
Song For Sharon
Woodstock

― sleeve, Thursday, 1 September 2022 01:14 (three years ago)

How so? It just feels like "someone else's favourite late-Joni-song", like she's connecting the dots on what people hoped she'd do in 1991. It's good though!

― Halfway there but for you, Thursday, 1 September 2022 02:08 (three years ago)

I love it (that synth sound!) but I'll concede it's a minute too long.
