"Don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone..."

Joni Mitchell - Big Yellow Taxi - 1970

"Big Yellow Taxi" has been recorded by 611 other artists from 1970 to 2025. Its message has been relevant every single day for every single person on the planet.

I have to wonder how many people have ever really listened and understood.
