- I envisioned myself as a mythic woman laying across the hills, part of and connected to the reason for life. I sensed that we were all part of a beautiful plan of peace and creation.

Put Melanie in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame posthumously! It's an unbelievable shame that she wasn't inducted in her lifetime. Such a generational icon. RIP beautiful soul!
Cheers\=/\=/
Melanie Ann Safka Schekeryk your spirit lives forever......thank you for sharing your songs with us.....your songs are the songs of love......your songs are the songs of hope.......your songs are the songs of peace.......i have heard your voice amongst the Angels.....the Angels are singing your songs forever......
And THAT'S why any radio stations won't play her music and do everything they can to keep people from remembering her and her music - radio stations are only interested in money - messages that artists like Melanie performed in the 60's, etc., make you look inside yourselves and make you Think - radio won't play this music unless it put money in Their pockets
I'm becoming progressively more irked that this great lady is almost NEVER mentioned when the other great ladies of the 1960s and '70s music are discussed, including the long-deceased. I don't begrudge anyone's success-- indeed many of these artists amiably share space on my record and CD shelves, and my time, when I have some to listen to them.. But Melanie was out there, doing personal and very well-written lyrics set to her own well-written tunes at the same time (and for decades after) , and even did wonderful covers of others' work, most notably RUBY TUESDAY originally by the Rolling Stones. Others have done hit covers of HER songs as well. She had two gold albums and one gold single, and was the first female artist to have 3 songs in a Top 40 countdown. She was the most notable breakout musician to perform at Woodstock, yet was not included in the documentary. She never won a Grammy, but does share an Emmy for co-writing (with the also-great Lee Holdridge) a love theme for the original 80s series BEAUTY AND THE BEAST. She was, until the pandemic, still quite a draw in Europe. She did a couple of duets with Miley Cyrus which I hoped would revive wider interest, but somehow did not, and NOT because then 70-year-old year-old Melanie wasn't able to keep up with and even surpass Miley! This will mystify me until the end !!!
I think part of the Beauty of Melanie is that she is not primarily focused on external tributes, but that she is energized by and feels contentment from fans like you, graciously writing to her of your appreciation. Its nice to hear/see how much she has meant to so many.
You hear what Ihear you see what I see
well you know -
she's "crazy"...
can't include her!
what if she FREAKS OUT or something..!?!
(I'm adding this later,
'cause some misunderstood.
I was being facetious.)
I don't think Melanie was part of the Cult which you have to be to get 'acknowledgement' from the Cult
She isn’t and yet is at the same time a mainstream artist most of her songs and bits of lyrics from her music cuz she says just that she hates the music industry and what it does to pple she speaks truth and not everyone wants to know the truth or care about it so much like she does she’s against so much and pple don’t really understand her and how deep and real she is
RIP Melanie. Your peace has come.
Rest Peacefully beautiful Melanie February 3, 1947 - January 23, 2024 . Such a big part of my youth
Rest in peace Melanie. A beautiful voice, and a beautiful person whose songs will live on. Blessings ~V~
A legend of the hippie era. R.I.P. Melanie 😥
I fell in love with Melanie early 1970 and still feel the same today
What a singer!
I feel so privileged having been young in the 70s with its wonderful music acts. Melanie, you are still moving me now that I am old ❤
Hi Manuela whenever i feel like a good weep i listen to " a little bit of me " been a massive fan since the 70s myself PS we,re not old just a lot wiser stay safe and strong my fellow fan love from Liverpool
For me best Song. Since 30. Years
dito!
I wish I had been living in the 60s ans 70s. 🥰❤️ But today I would be old. 😲
@@truvi2461 And you would be glad that you are old today, because you would know that EVIL reigns over the world. I not talking anything biblical... but that those who make the rules, wage the wars, hold the billions and trillions... have a very evil agenda.
This is not what is in many people's Hearts.... there is MUCH LOVE still in some people... but those in "control".... are satanic (real meaning of the word) .... and this world is on the brink of something so terrible... sad to say... and that is why it was beautiful being young in the 60's and 70's ... and old now.
The songwriting. That voice. Those looks. That gorgeous sounding guitar. Oh my.
Actually if you just took away her: voice, writing, guitar skills, and phrasing what would you have- all of today’s top 40 shit
Just turned 78, but given another 80 years I'll never forget seeing you and your Mom just before Woodstock. Forever the Angel- that voice...
🕯Rest in peace, Mel.🕯
You made a musical impression on our age. Tough to do, in a fickle industry where women were stigmatized & often dismissed.
Thanks for songs that will always remind us all of what seemed like simpler times. ♡
this touches my soul this is why I've loved Melanie for almost 50 years
me too 50 yrs,
Me too just now 50 years...its our life song! Christoph and Erni
Same here
@@willyvlyminck201 hi Willy me 2 I was lucky to see her at powder ridge ski area. All other bands were to chicken to show up after an emergency town meeting that at the last minute canceled the show but Melanie had the balls to perform all nite long with local bands & wasn't arrested the girl had balls :)
I agree. Melanie is so feel good, when you don't feel good!!! 🎵🎼🎸🎶🎙
If any song is appropriate for the days we are in now, this one is it! I want to float away with my tears and sail to a day when we didn't worry about evil people and children being misused. I didn't expect I'd wake up this morning only to find solace in Melanie. I'm 73 but feel like I'm watching a miracle that could come if she sang to world leaders. Thank you, Melanie!
You're right. Peace of heart is our miracle God willing
@@maryhowsrd3381 "God" doesn't care, neither do the world leaders making plans for war once again. All we have is protest songs like this and a hope peace will come to the whole world one day. RIP Melanie.
Nothing more powerful than the human voice Thank God for Melanie
RIP Melanie..thank you for the music.
We will all miss you ❤ Thank you for your music and beautiful personality ❤️🕯️✨
so underrated, iconic snog writer. Great!
RIP Melanie, thank you for being mesmerizing. ❤❤❤
I've been a fan of Melanie's since I was a kid. Love her beautiful voice.
She will always be beautiful. I was born in the early 1960's. I have been privileged to see the entirety of her beautiful brilliant career. Her river was the Navesink in Red Bank NJ. She lived there as a teenager. It feeds into the Atlantic Ocean.
We are all connected, and planning to achieve peace and creation. And you are a great catalyst to make it happen, Melanie. To me, you haven't gone anywhere. You're in my special pocket, by my heart, where I keep all the most wonderful things. I can keep working for the right things, for your song, for Peace & Love & Life.
And I know you will be everywhere, guiding, and keeping us singing! ~ All Love for All
Timeless voice, timeless beauty.......timeless message. Melanie has been one of true blessings in my lifetime.
RIP, I have always loved your music.
I am still alive. I am still waiting for peace to come. Perhaps I will die peacefully. I have certainly tried to live that way. Peace.
She played at Woodstock in 1969. A huge star in the 1960's such beautiful music from her then. God blessed us with Melanie's talent.
Aha, to sit in an audience once again to just listen to this wonderful woman, her guitar, and that oh so wonderful voice!
I am grateful for your song with heart… May we find peace in our life today with so much chaos!
This live performance was excellent, the way Melanie ended this song still gives me goosebumps! Her voice would just reverb throughout the auditorium when she raised it like that. I've never figured out which I loved more, her face or her voice but I know together they were heavenly. Love you Melanie
Such a powerful voice!! One of Melanie's best songs. The harmony on the studio version is wonderful.
Just heard Melanie has died age 76. R.I.P MELANIE
Truly unique voice!
Used to love that Brand new Key song.
Also adored her cover of Ruby Tuesday!
This is mantra-like. Cosmic poetry. Inspired.
Melanie, when the internet was new, I first connected with other Melanie fans. It feels like so long ago now. I couldn't believe it. Not only were several of these people fans but "like me". I adore being able to see and witness all of these shows that I wasn't able to back when they were performed. You have touched so many lives with your music in the most positive ways.
My parents named me Melanie after Melanie Safka way back in 1977. I’ve always been someone who has to live close to it all and understand the heart of things. I think it comes with the name :). I’m just now becoming familiar with her music and love it.
My older sister also chose Melanie for my name in 1973
Your parents were at the top of their game when naming you. It's nice to see that you have carried on the searching/questing theme of being genuine.
Can remember seeing her at a outdoor concert early 70`s she BELTED this out 110% amazing voice..such emotion..X
I heard Melanie sing in the village in 68 and have been a big fan of this lovely girl ever since!
I could never ever forget Melanie singing this song that night at Carnegie Hall. She has been my greatest musical inspiration since I was 15, 53 yrs ago.
Happy Love Peace Day to our Ambassador for Peace. Light and love wherever you are. 😇🌞💕🌎🎼🙏
Still as breathtaking and beautiful as when the song was new and I was 16 years old. Peace and love, Melanie
WOW until tonight I forgot about Melanie,what a talent!!!!!
I was born at the end of 1970, but I know about this song because I bought a K-Tel record at a thrift store in the 1990s.
As I have said before, I was so blessed to attend Melanie's birthday concert in 2000 and to meet her and her kids who were also musicians!! What a treat!!
R.I.P. Beautiful Lady ❤
This song brings much needed peace to my soul and I have needed to make this pilgrimage more often as the world gets more crazy and I get older.
Amazing talent amazing song thank you Melanie I remember you from my childhood in 1970s. This song made me cry because it is heartfelt I feel your passion and hard work and love in the music that has transcended through time against today's so called music of instant overnight sensational flash in the pan stars and american idols who will never stand the test the time.
I grew up listening to her music on the radio but this is the first I've ever heard of her. She's got quite a style.
Simply beautiful.
Thank you Joan.
Love Melanie
Nice to see the comments from others who love Melanie's music as much as I do. Watching these live videos of Melanie is even better than listening to the LPs - it's amazing how her voice shines through the 50 year old recording technology. Melanie's soaring and touching music is especially affecting in this time of pandemic.
Just been listening to this she's singing with Miley Cyrus Backyard sessions can't believe how amazing her voice still is I'd never even heard of her before :( got some catching up to do 😂
Ian Cook she does an incredible song titled " candles in the rain ".
@@tonyakeldsen1782 "incredible" really doen't do it justice ;O)
Randy Taylor indeed. I was raised with hippies, so I have been blessed with the exposure to many of the good ones. Her voice alone will transcend but then all the voices join and rise together it is almost a religious experience. I would like it played at my services when the time comes. This song would be the message I wish to leave others and I do hope nobody else attempts a remake of it, because I don’t feel it could ever be improved on eh?
I hope you caught up . There is much more ❤
I'm glad I have peace in my life.Good song!
May be the greatest version of this great song I love you so much Melanie!
Une chanson pleine d'espoir par les temps qui courent...
youtube only allows me to give a like - so I came to the comments because I needed to express just how much I love this song. Thank you Melanie.
Peace, Melanie. ❤
I can't think of anyone who has had such a positive effect on me and for so long. I keep returning to the well, sometimes, after years of wandering about and forlorn, bereft of memory. You bring the memories.
such a beautiful voice
The world's best female troubadour.
Saw her live in Australia...!! So glad to be part of that generation...! Namista 🙏
The magic of Melanie
a wonderful song sung by a real singer, a wonderful woman with a angellike voice. more relevant as ever. from a time when celebs did commit themselves for peace, to make people aware what is happening on this planet. today you don't hear anything from the nowadays so-called wannabee stars, they party and vaunt themselves (and even fight in public), only thinking of themselves. ........Melanie thank you for all your wonderful songs. i am so glad i could live my life with them. stay healthy and in peace.
Peace in your life came too soon beautiful people. We still get to hear you but feeling sad knowing you are looking down from the brightest star in the sky tonight. If I could bottle you I'd keep you in my pocket and share you with everyone else I meet. And you'd be forever singing like this tonight forever. AND everyone would finally HEAR you. Finally HEAR. Melanie Finally Hear her amazing songs, her amazing voice, her beauty and kindness.
smashing in many ways, Melanie, thanks for being on my sub conscious with
Peace Will Come for 50 years...your album was left at my parents home,
well I love this song.
Such a strong and wonderful song and performance. : - )
just perfect
Her music has been a permanent pat of my library. So underrated. Her music has seen me through some tough times. Bless you sweet flower 🌼 🌸 girl!
We love you Melanie.
The voice of an angel - one of the greatest vocalist ever
Absolute magic!
As true today as it was then. It really does start with each one of us. This song brings a pause in this mad rush towards courting disaster. Rock on Melanie
What a joy to hear you again, and again.
Everything about this is so beautiful.
Everything about her is beautiful.
this song means more to me than any song ever recorded, it just so influenced my life from the inside out forever the first time i ever heard it so many years past!! i love you forever Melanie!!!!thank you so much for this beautiful video.........☮♪♫♥♪♫♥☮
Listen how beautiful and powerful her voice it, how perfect and pure. Love you, Melanie!
Great song made even better in a duet by Miley and Melanie...watch it...amazing
I love this, as with all of Melanie's videos. What I would like to know is who are the three numbskulls who downvoted this video. Thank you, again, Melanie, for making my life a little bit better with your music. You're a beautiful spirit.
She was beautiful, raw and powerful. All of the things that current artists lack. What a frigging voice! God she was great.
Melanie, hi , I'm ma dorothy a fan since 1972. peace be with you old gal !
tears , smiles and hope ...
Love.
RIP Sweet Angel ❤
Absolutely stunning. Simply brilliant.
There's a chance peace will come in your life please buy one
These's chance please will come in your life please buy one
Sometimes when I am feeling as big as the land
With the velvet hill in the small of my back
And my hands are playing the sand
And my feet are swimming in all of the waters
All of the rivers are givers to the ocean
According to plan, according to man
Well sometimes when I am feeling so grand
And I become the world
And the world becomes a man
And my song becomes a part of the river
I cry out to keep me just the way I am
According to plan
According to man, according to plan
According to man, according to man
According to plan, according to man
According to plan, according to man
Oh, there's a chance, peace will come in your life, please buy one.
Oh, there's a chance, peace will come in my life, please buy one.
For sometimes when we have reached the end
With the velvet hill in the small of my backs
And our hands are clutching the sand
Will our blood become a part of the river
All of the rivers are givers to the ocean
According to plan, according to man
There's a chance, peace will come
In your life please buy one.
There's a chance, peace will come in your life, please buy one
There's a chance, peace will come in your life, please buy one
There's a chance, peace will come in your life, please buy one
I love you always.thanks. ❤❤❤
Thanks Melanie, love you. Got my chance. -Steve B.
A very nice song.
Kind regard Worldcall.
Peace and love Melanie. 🌺🌷.
Amazing! I have goosebumps all over, just love this song
j' adore cette artiste que je connais depuis longtemps et j' aurai aimé avoir son talent !!
Simply the GOAT!!! No contest ...
Qué grandísima artista es Melanie, su música me ha acompañado toda la vida y aún me sigue emocionando como la primera vez, y de eso hace ya muchos años.
Wow! What a powerful and unique voice Melanie had! I agree with many hears, it was a privilege to grow up in the 60’s and 70’s , to be a part of this music, and Melanie was one artist In listened too often in the early 70’s. What I can’t believe is, the media had largely ignored her passing! I only discovered she passed recently by a reel I saw on instagram! It’s unbelievable they would ignore this legends passing. Melanie was one of only three woman to headline at Woodstock! Those three woman were Janis Joplin, Joan Baez and Melanie! She was not only a great artist but also a pioneer for woman in Rock and Roll! RIP Melanie! You are missed, but your spirit remains with the richness of your music you left behind!
Thank you lorraiegrey, she is beautiful and your right,Melanie is the best!! All my prayers and love to you all
When back then listening to.a beautiful girl with a great song about a song that might bring peace ❤❤❤
영혼의 목소리
넘 가슴에 닿습니다
Melanie, hi , I'm a fan since 1972, peace chic
