Our Take

JONI MITCHELL's "Wild Things Run Fast" is a rollercoaster of emotions and sounds, much like navigating the London Underground during rush hour. Mitchell's distinctive voice soars through tracks like a pigeon dodging traffic in Trafalgar Square, effortlessly shifting from delicate whispers to powerful declarations like a British royal changing hats for a garden party.

The album's production is as polished as the Queen's silverware, with lush instrumentation that glimmers like the Thames at sunset. Songs like "Chinese Cafe/Unchained Melody" evoke visions of rainy days in Camden Market, while "You Dream Flat Tires" hits harder than a blustery day at Brighton Beach.

Mitchell's songwriting is as sharp as a freshly brewed cuppa, delving into themes of love, loss, and self-discovery with the wit and wisdom of a seasoned London cab driver. Tracks like "Be Cool" and "Ladies' Man" showcase Mitchell's storytelling prowess, painting vivid portraits of characters who could easily be spotted on a double-decker bus riding through the streets of Notting Hill.

Overall, "Wild Things Run Fast" is a musical journey through the bustling streets of London, with Joni Mitchell leading the way like a rebellious punk rocker in Camden Town. So grab your Oyster card, sit back, and enjoy the ride. Cheers, Joni!
