Joni Mitchell is celebrating her 80th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, she is one of the most acclaimed singers of her generation.

Popular singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell (Big Yellow Taxi, Woodstock, Both Sides, Now, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 80th birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.

Mitchell, a cultural icon

Born Roberta Joan Anderson in Fort Macleod on November 7, 1943, her career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Canadian history. Mitchell's not just a great singer, she's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business woman. At this point in her career, there seems to be little Joni hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Joni Mitchell as she promises more to come. After all, she's only 80.

Happy Birthday, Joni, you're the best!
