James Damiano?
Joni Mitchell is on record of questioning Dylan’s authorship of songs and accusing him of outright theft.
That said...”Dylan wrote” so many amazing songs.
Yes, she accused him of that without giving a single example. Mitchell has always been a bit of a kook.
Darkness at the break of noon
Shadows even the silver spoon
The handmade blade, the child’s balloon
Eclipses both the sun and moon
To understand you know too soon
There is no sense in trying.
That actually would explain some things. Ive seen him being interviewed where he said he didn’t know how he came to be the voice of a generation. He also says hes sure he didnt mean most of the thoughts attributed to him by commentators on the meanings of his lyrics. He also says he doesnt know what he was thinking about but hes sure it wasnt that.
