Joni Mitchell Pulling Music from Spotify in Solidarity With Neil Young
Billboard ^ | January 28th, 2022 | Chris Eggertsen

Posted on 01/28/2022 7:01:42 PM PST by shadowlands1960

Joni Mitchell is joining her old friend and contemporary Neil Young in having her legendary music catalog pulled from Spotify over concerns about vaccine misinformation being spread on the platform’s popular Joe Rogan Experience podcast.

In a brief note posted to her official website on Friday, the singer-songwriter wrote, “I’ve decided to remove all my music from Spotify. Irresponsible people are spreading lies that are costing people their lives. I stand in solidarity with Neil Young and the global scientific and medical communities on this issue.”

When Janis Ian pulls her music, then this will be serious. /S

Yeah I saw that... it appears to have been a twitter rumor. In the case of Joni, Billboard has the paperwork including the press release at the link.

Someone else is doing this because she’s barely functional after a stroke.

I think Al Jolson pulled his music as well.

Spotify Should announce a lifetime ban on both of them.

That's what I thought too. I have no idea what her present state of mind is though so I held back on that.

Guy tuned Mom’s piano about 40 years ago.

Told me he met her. Said she had no personality whatsoever.

I would expect millions of people do, especially 'boomers.'

A brain aneurysm in 2015 really hit her hard. In 2018, she was described as "learning to walk again".
