I agree with Electrophile, but I think this song is a lot better than Zeppelin's Going to California - feel free to disagree!
Did Joni Mitchell actually come from California? Cos I almost think that she's making fun of the things that are typical to California, e.g.
The way they talk - "Gonna see the folks I dig"
The Musical background - "...feel good Rock and Roll band" - Beach Boys?
The added instrument in the section that begins - "Oh it gets so lonely" - some kinda keyboard?
Just some thoughts :) But in all, a beautiful song, the first time I heard it I wanted to live in California too!
