Joni Mitchell - "Trouble Child" 
Court and Spark (1974) I've been playing the cacadoody outta this album lately, and while this particular tune wasn't one of the singles off this album I thought it easily could have been. It's a brilliant song from the start but when those horns start...

I love this song. I didn't discover until recently that there are very small elements that remind of Prince. Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off | |

I'm sure you mean that there are elements in his work that remind you of Joni.   | |

 In musical form, your troubled upbringing brings me lots of joy. | |

Absolutely one of her all-time best. The way everything comes together when she sings the word "Malibu" is just breathtaking. | |

This tune deserves a set of lyrics...
Up in a sterilized room Where they let you be lazy Knowing your attitude's all wrong And you got to change And that's not easy Dragon shining with all values known Dazzling you-keeping you from your own Where is the lion in you to defy him When you're this weak And this spacey So what are you going to do about it You can't live life and you can't leave it Advice and religion you can't take it You can't seem to believe it The peacock is afraid to parade You're under the thumb of the maid You really can't give love in this condition Still you know how you need it They open and close you Then they talk like they know you They don't know you They're friends and they're foes too Trouble child Breaking like the waves at Malibu So why does it come as such a shock To know you really have no one Only a river of changing faces Looking for an ocean They trickle through your leaky plans Another dream over the dam And you're lying in some room Feeling like your right to be human Is going over too Well some are going to knock you And some'll try to clock you You know it's really hard To talk sense to you Trouble child Breaking like the waves at Malibu ...
