Joni Mitchell and Elton John's Jazzed-Up Duet at Hollywood Bowl

You know how sometimes legends come together and create magic? That's what happened when Joni Mitchell and Elton John teamed up at the Hollywood Bowl. Mitchell, now 80, and John, 77, are both music veterans who started their careers way back in the late '60s. They joined forces for a jazzy take on John's hit "I'm Still Standing, " which was released in 1983. Instead of standing, the two legends sat on stage, which Mitchell jokingly addressed, saying, "I think I have to sing, 'I'm still sitting after all these years. '" The crowd loved it! And get this, they weren't alone. Other stars like Brandi Carlile, Annie Lennox, and even the amazing actress Meryl Streep joined in. This wasn't just any concert; it was Mitchell's first headlining show in Los Angeles in over two decades. She played some songs for the very first time and even did a few live rarities. It was a big deal for fans to see her back in action after suffering a brain aneurysm in 2015 that made it hard for her to speak or walk. But Mitchell is a fighter. She made a comeback at the Newport Folk Festival in 2022 and has been going strong ever since. Her recent Grammy performance of "Both Sides, Now" was a hit, and she's been celebrating John and his songwriting partner, Bernie Taupin, too. Talk about a comeback!
