I remember listening to this tune when I was 7 or 8 with my Dad. Until tday I never put the two together. Two of my favourite memories, my father and music, for which he taught me to love. You are one of the musicians he listened to Melanie 💝
Melanie helped me get through some rough teenage and very young adult years. She offered vision and hope to our generation. We owe her a lot. I know I sure do. 💕🎼💥🌍🦋🎶
"They can't even clap along" As a part time musician, that made me chuckle. If there's a good book to live in, I imagine Melanie's biography is it. Love this Miss Safka if you're reading this, please come to Ireland!
Up Lifting, in singing this song to my self Mom. 🎵🎵🎶 Put in a plastic bag ,and turn it upside down Mom. 🎶🎶🎶🎵 What has this world come too now Mom. Never to forget the joy of days when days were then Mom. 🎵🎶🎵🎶 Beyond belief Mom. 🎶🎶🎵 Thank you, Melanie, Love You, ♥️ Hugs with more Hugs Mom.
I am absolutely astonished at this song! Just saw this when you sang it with Miley and I wish I would of listened to you when I heard my mother singing your songs. But honestly..... as a father and an adult I can fully appreciate the lyrics more than I ever could of earlier in my life. Thank you Melanie for the words you have sang. I look forward to hearing your songs for the first time. Your songs meant so much to my mother and I'm sure the same will be said for me.
I am proud to be #200 thumbup ....just want you to know , I fell in love with you all over again this morning and according to your bio , you are well an fine...and that was good for me to know...God Bless You Melanie and keep on truckin
I challenge anybody to name a better B-Side. I'm not talking about double A-Sides. This song was a B- Side filler yet it's one of her finest compositions. If Ray Charles and Nina Simone cover it, it's not shit.
Carmen Ibarra González She was at Woodstock but not in the movie. She came on after Ritchie Havens. At the time this song came out only the FM stations played it. She wasn’t in the Woodstock movie because she wasn’t well known then.

Mick Fleetwood was right, the music business IS dead
