I remember Melanie's songs growing up in the 70's. She had hits such as "Brand New Key", "Ruby Tuesday", "What Have They Done To My Song Ma", "Ring The Living Bell", "The Nickel Song", "Bitter Bad", "Together Alone", "Will You Love Me Tomorrow" etc. "Lay Down (Candles In The Rain)" was inspired by her experience of performing at the 1969 Woodstock music festival.
I had just learned to like Jimi Hendrix, Jethro Tull, Frank Zappa. But the first album I bought in a shop turned out to be Melanie. I had heard "Tuning my guitar" in radio. This was 1970.
Aw thanks! That was me. :) My name is pronounced like "Darcy" but I know it's got a lot of extra letters so no worries! There's another video of her recording the studio version where it's a little more upbeat and powerful. This is more of a sleepy, lullaby version. Thanks again for doing it!
He actually reacted to the live version from 1970, a few months ago, but didn't make the connection here, I guess 'cause he reacts to so much material.
He also reacted to her doing 'Lay Down' live in 1970, a few months back. He didn't seem to make the connection when he saw this one, I guess because he just reacts to so much material.
He actually reacted to the version live in the Netherlands with the Edwin Hawkins Singers in '70, a few months ago. He must have forgotten when he did this.
Brooooo, just react to newest cover released by Gabriel Henrique. The song is from Michael Jackson (maybe you already know, but I wouldn't tell you lol).

All of that ... Melanie's so unique
This performance is fifty years old.Melanie sang what was in her heart and her soul. And her voice was the perfect outlet for her art.
She was at the great Woodstock festival. She recently past away RIP little angel may God outstretch his arms for you she was an angel on earth.
Melanie was all about bringing peace amongst us all
Damn my heart feels brighter from that. Never would've heard it in a million years, thanks for the shout out and reaction video fr

Always loved Melanie❤. My favourite is Lay Down, but also Brand New Key and Look What They Done Ma, just a superb voice 👌💞
Our daughter born in '77 and named after Melanie Safka ❤

You actually reacted to another of Melanie's great songs a few months ago: Lay Down (Candles In The Rain) live with the Edwin Hawkins Singers, 1970.
Listen to "Candles In The Rain"

Melanie's Ruby Tuesday does it for me..
Not quite the first time you heard her...
She was also sampled on Hilltop hoods "Nosebleed Section"

Listen to Candles in the rain. She has a lot of great songs, and a very unique voice.

You want singing with conviction? Listen to "Lay Down, Candles in the Rain" by Melanie. That was Woodstock in a song! Nice work, thx!
Australian Crawl sang a different Beautiful People 😊
"Brand new Key, "The Nickel Song" or "Look What They've Done to my Song Ma" next ... Please?
Studio version of Beautiful People:
