In 1970, Joni Mitchell was on holiday in Hawaii. When looking out of the window in the morning, she saw mountains in the distance, and a parking place as far as the eye could see. In the song, a lot is about the environment, but in the end, it’s also about love, when her boyfriend goes away. In the UK, it was a number 11 hit, in the US number 24. Enjoy
