“Our House” by Graham Nash of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young (1970)
Graham Nash and Joni Mitchell began living together in December 1968. The two had a lot in common and the fact they were both singer-songwriters were one of these. One day, the pair dined out for breakfast and purchased a vase together. This simple day served as Nash’s inspiration to write “Our House”, an ode to the beauty of domestic life. Mitchell was picking flowers for the new vase while Nash was on the piano trying to write the song.
