"River" is a song by Joni Mitchell, from her 1971 album Blue.
In the song, Mitchell ruminates on the recent breakup of a romantic relationship. Christmas is nearing, and Mitchell longs to escape her emotional bonds...
"I wish I had a river... I could skate away on... I wish I had a river so long... I would teach my feet to fly."
i wanted to take a sort of ethereal spin on this song, to really bring the cold, haunting nature of the lyrics and melody to life.
offering her beautiful harmonies is my cousin, Ashlie Sasser.
