And what we wish we could have! Say it Joni. Give us life.

Michael Landau's expert understated guitar in the background throughout adds so much to the song, I can't express!

THIS is absolute BRILLIANT writing and arranging, layering, interpretation, style...  performance...  and WRITING.  PERIOD.

If you had that House, Car Bottle,Jar...Your lovers would look like MovieStars.

Latest styles and colors . . . sooooooo special!  This song is what L.A. looked like and still does!

This song has no peer that I know of. A slow-moving twister, picking up our greedy, vain desires to swirl and rub our noses in them. Too uncomfortable for its time but still waiting for us. My favourite line is the gulping, salivating "Is that our new car, Charles?"

This is more a performance art piece than a song. Love that. :)

Love it. Takes the joke on the superficiality of the western culture! The song sends the message that people who have more want more and it never ends. My two favorite lines where Joni captures the essence of greed include 1. I'm afraid I can't go below $2m, and 2. Is THAT our new car Charles?

Joni always carries a message within her lyrics and you cannot forget them.

What a unique way the lyrics are song. This is fantastic. A very fun little creation for sure. See how it could become a fave'.:-))) Some neat lyrics skillfully blended in a unique experience. Love when a song comes your way that makes you happy and smile. :-)))) The instruments always played so masterfully. A smile is on my face and I will have to dream on this one.:-)))

I'm not the dreamer, only the dream.

TOOO COOL FOR OUR DARK DAYS-THEY DO NOT WANT TO KNOW

I agree, so true it hurts. Thanks for the comment.

Reminds me of Laurie Anderson

Play this and anyone would ask : " who/what is this?!"
