''Turbulent Indigo'' is the fifteenth album by Canadian singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell. Released in 1994, it won a Grammy Award for Pop Album of the Year. John Milward, writing for ''Rolling Stone'', wrote that it was Mitchell's "best album since the mid-'70s". The album marked her return to Warner Music (formerly WEA) distribution after her previous album, ''Night Ride Home'', was distributed by MCA for its then-newly purchased subsidiary Geffen Records (which, prior to the sale to MCA, had distributed through WEA). The album takes inspiration from the Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh for Mitchell's self-portrait on the cover. The song "Turbulent Indigo" references Van Gogh, while the song "Magdalene Laundries" recounts the sufferings of Irish women once consigned to Magdalen Asylums run by the Roman Catholic Church and made to work in the asylum's laundries. The song "Not to Blame" was rumored to be about Mitchell's singer-songwriting colleague Jackson Browne who was alleged to have beaten his girlfriend, actress Daryl Hannah; Mitchell denies this. . The song "Sex Kills" referenced a number of late twentieth century topical issues, including violence, AIDS, global warming and consumerism. , the album has sold 311,000 copies in the US. ==Track listing== All tracks composed by Joni Mitchell; except where indicated #"Sunny Sunday" – 2:21 #"Sex Kills" – 3:56 #"How Do You Stop" – 4:09 (Charlie Midnight, Dan Hartman) #"Turbulent Indigo" – 3:34 #"Last Chance Lost" – 3:14 #"The Magdalene Laundries" – 4:02 #"Not to Blame" – 4:18 #"Borderline" – 4:48 #"Yvette in English" – 5:16 (Mitchell, David Crosby) #"The Sire of Sorrow (Job's Sad Song)" – 7:08 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Turbulent Indigo」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
