Does anyone else hear 'Electricity' as being about a triadic relationship, of some kind? It's just that I have always heard it that way and had never questioned it, until I was reading some archives on the jmdl site and saw some totally different interpretations. Which, of course, is what it's all about! I don't at all think there is a definitive interpretation of every song, but I would be interested to know if anyone else heard it that way. /////It could be a simple mistake based on the three perspectives from which Joni may be singing: he, she, and I. It could also be due to my tendency to interpret songs in the light of my own experiences and those of people close to me. But the perspective shifting(if that's what it is) in this song is interesting. If it IS only about 2 people, then is it the male or female perspective Joni takes on when she sings in the first person? For example, when she sings 'I'm learning it's peaceful with a good dog & some trees', has she taken on the perspective of the male or the female, the Minus or the Plus? If the picture in the songbook shows a man with a dog, this would suggest she is taking on the male perspective. In fact, a male perspective on a two-way relationship could explain every incidence when she takes on the first-person, such as "The loose wires were lashing out at me, she's not going to fix that up too easy". BUT it can't explain the last line of the song, at the end of a verse in the first person, when she sings "But while the song that he sang her to soothe her to sleep runs all through her circuits like a heartbeat, she's not going to fix it up too easy". Unless there has been yet another perspective switch! /////Okay, in my interpretation, I'm not thinking one girl and two guys, I'm thinking one guy and two girls. I would argue that the song doesn't have any perspective shifting, but is in the perspective of one of the girls all the way through. The Minus is obviously the guy, with whom the central character is romantically involved. He's cold & estranged, but she needs him and her emotional state (compared to seasons) is a response to him: "The Minus is loveless, he talks to the land, & the leaves fall & the pond over-ices'. The Plus is not the central character, but the other girl. The Plus is someone she has been friends with for a fair while, but their friendship has fallen in to difficult times. In my head, it is their friendship being referred to in the lines, "We once loved together and we floodlit that time, input, output, electricity. But the lines overloaded and the sparks started flying and the loose wires were lashing out at me". /////The Plus is a difficult person to relate to ("She don't know the system, Plus, she don't understand, she's got all the wrong fuses & splices"). She's a bit intense and needy, and she tries to get too close to the central character: "She holds out her flashlight and she shines it on me, she wants me to tell her what the trouble might be". This leads the central character to withdraw: "I'm learning it's peaceful, etc". /////But things go even more wrong because now the Plus has become romantically involved with the Minus too. The friendship is in a terrible mess and now the Plus has feelings for the central character's man, who is ambivalent towards both of them. The Plus in an awful pickle, but she's still trying desperately to sort out her friendship with the central character, and mistakenly trying to get the Minus to help her: "She holds out her candle and she shines it in, and she begs him to show her how to fix it again". However, this is now completely impossible, because the Plus is now running on the tiny charge she has managed to elicit from the Minus: "While the song that he sang her to soothe her to sleep runs all through her circuits like a heartbeat, she's not going to fix it up too easy". /////Am I wildly, wildly mistaken? What does anyone think? Sorry this post is so long! I'm revising for my exams, and things that are usually interesting become even more interesting when they become an excuse to stop revising! /////Love Kate C - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Want to block unwanted pop-ups?

I can not locate it (as usual) but there was a long story someone posted awhile ago on here about Joni picking three people up who were hitchhiking up in Canada near where she lives in BC around the time of her writing FTR. They were stunned/thrilled to realize it was Joni who stopped for them. Seems to me she may have had a dog in the car (a Pinto). I think she dropped them off somewhere and then returned to pick them up and Graham Nash was in the car with her????? And maybe one of them made her a dulcimer??????

I'm sure it was someone who posted it to the list at least a couple of years ago. I have no idea how to search the archives though, apart from going through each digest one by one and trying to search a key word or two - I think there's another way to do this, because I've seen instances of people posting links, or excerpts, but I have no idea how they do this. I'm not sure about the dog, but I remember the hitchers and the dulcimer. It was either someone who is (or was) a regular poster here who experienced this, or who was quoting someone else he knew. Big help, eh? Joni has a Jack Russell terrier and a bunch of cats now, but back then? No idea. I picture a Golden Retriever or a Lab. P.S. Is it always a clear day where you live? It's pretty gloomy here. ;-) ===== Catherine Toronto - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We all live so close to that line, and so far from satisfaction ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 23 May 2004 10:22:50 -0500 From: Michael Paz Subject: Info (NJC) Hi gang (Heads up John Moore!!!)

Interesting name - Half Moon Cay (though it's more of a crescent moon, imo)! whereas we've been festing at Full Moon. Is the moon half full or half empty? Imagine owning your own island. Right now I probably own a few cups of dirt on my own property and the bank owns the rest. Having the kind of moola to do this is beyond my finite mind to even contemplate. I think I'll need to stick to the yurt idea.

But the > perspective > shifting(if that's what it is) in this song is > interesting. That's one of the amazing things about Joni's writing. It could be any or all of what you think, and even more besides. I waver between changing-perspective, and third person involved. In fact, both at the same time. I think Joni has just split with her beau and she's gone on retreat up to her BC hideaway, where she's trying to get back in touch with nature and herself and to lick her wounds. Meantime, the beau is together with another woman. Joni may be telling the new woman a few things about the guy, to help her out (or possibly sabotage things, but probably not, since I believe Joni knows it's truly over between her and the ex- and is trying to do the right and mature thing by letting him go from her heart and mind. She mulls over the affair, comparing it with the new one he's beginning with this other woman, and writing it all down in terms of electricity - - the fire and spark they once had, the fuses blown, the attempts to fix it with whatever comes to hand - attempts that ultimately proved fruitless; the darkness left by power failure, yet another attempt to fix it with a candle, also doomed to fail. There may be a very real practical side to this as well. If she was living in a rural area and the power lines went down, or something failed in the fuse box, it's quite possible she would need to try to fix this herself. She has run out of fuses and so uses the penny (the copper proud-headed Queen Lizzie) to try to fix it, but it doesn't work. It goes beyond one blown fuse. I believe she does switch perspectives back and forth, between herself and the man, herself and the other woman. First "she" holds out a flashlight and shines it on "me." It could be the other woman, wanting Joni to help her with a problem she's now having with the guy. Or, it could be a friend of Joni's, trying to help Joni out. Or maybe the "me" in this case, is the guy: Joni, as she's trying to fix the blown fuse, remembers asking the man, before it was all over, what the trouble is, but he's not willing to talk. "They're" not going to fix it up. Later, even the flashlight has failed and now "she" holds out a candle and begs HIM to fix it. Just fix it. Talking it over hasn't worked, so just fix it. Now, "she's" not going to fix it up. First, the relationship falters, then fails. Now, Joni's on her own, but she's just beginning to heal. Right now, she's just learning, but she's got a long way to go and she realizes she needs to fix things up for herself. ===== Catherine Toronto - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We all live so close to that line, and so far from satisfaction ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 23 May 2004 17:45:07 EDT From: LCStanley7@aol.com Subject: Re: Cinnamon, NJC The lady with the window wrote: Here's this thing, with the exception of about two weeks time, he has been doing this for TWO YEARS.

Actually, one of my best friends here is the exotic bird rescue person for our county and several other counties so I asked her about this. She said that cardinals are territorial, and the birdie thinks it is seeing another cardinal in it's territory and is trying to chase it off but meeting up with the window. She said it could damage its brain by doing this and suggested some things you could do: get an awning for the window or put a dark colored fabric screen on the window or put adhesive glare-reducing coating on the window. She also said you could get a battery operated motion detecting owl from Home Depot and put this on the roof, but the bird will not come around at all if you get the owl. The owl will scare off squirrels too, but you have to move it around occasionally. She also said that it is the same bird most likely and not several different ones doing the same thing.

Talking it over hasn't worked, so just fix it. > Now, "she's" not going to fix it up. I've always seen the flashlight and candle as metaphors for something different. In the case of the flashlight, the "new" woman knows that Joni knows this guy really well, so it's like Joni is "under the spotlight" (which is very bright and clear), being interrogated by his new love. She wants Joni to tell her everything she can about this guy to ease her confusion. Later, this same woman tries to examine the guy herself, but she doesn't know as much as Joni yet, so her light is only a candle - weak and flickering, so she can't see nearly as much as Joni could with her "flashlight". I really need to sit down and examine this song in more detail, because it's definitely one of my favourites!

A co-worker offered to sell his 15 CD box set called "THELONIOUS MONK: The Complete Riverside Recordings" and I couldn't pass it up. If you don't see a post from me for a while you'll know why. I first became aware of Monk when watching the Ken Burns' series on PBS about Jazz. I had a yellow legal pad ready for note taking most nights and his name accumulated more than one asterisk. I really like the dissonance and hesitance. It's hard to describe why you love something. It feels like I "recognized" Monk in some way. His styles seem inevitable and self-obvious yet he's unique. Since discovering Monk, I think of him every time I hear Joni tiptoeing in unresolved tension in the middle of Paprika Plains, clanging, then tiptoeing again, and finally resolving the progression as the orchestra swells. Almost comically, she resolves again and again, and again as if to convince herself, taking satisfaction. If she wasn't "putting on Monk", she was smoking from the same hooka. I had to absorb ELP before I was ready for Dave Brubeck. I had to absorb CSN's "Woodstock" and Annie Ross'es "Farmer's Market" before I was ready for "For The Roses". I had to absorb "Paprika Plains" before I was ready for "Brilliant Corners". I think it was a Canadian Zen master who once said: "The teacher appears when the student is ready, eh?"
