I am a witness to both the writing of this song and it's meaning. The song was written in 1975 about Jose Feliciano and his then wife, Janna. The blind singer/songwriter was having great difficulty in his marriage. Joni became friends with Janna Feliciano and attended Jose's birthday party in September of 1975. She was there with John Guerin. I have photos of them there. Joni wrote the song from Janna's viewpoiint, but alas, there are two sides to every story. Joni is the best! And THIS is what this song is about. |
