    I almost forgot about this once in a lifetime viewing on the Ed Sullivan Show when I was a 10 year old kid. Melanie was such a beautiful person with a truly amazing voice that could move the angels to tears. I only remembered her pop tune of “I Got A Brand New Key” from when I was about 12-13 years old and didn’t realize that she also sang “Look What They’ve Done To My Song Ma” or this beautiful song-“Peace Will Come”. Thank you and RIP Melanie.

    RIP Melanie. Beautiful talented singer who sang my life from age 17, now 72, until I hear Melanie sing and then I'm 17 again.

      I hear you. I just turned 74 in February. Her voice just carries us along.....When I look up and see the brightest star it's Melanie looking down and asking no singing There's a Chance Peace will come in your life Please BUY ONE.

    Crying. She is Eternal. Forever. I am sad because she passed. But I am returning to better times and memories and maybe great memories are ahead. Precious lady, rest, smile, sing, dance and fly now. Never forget us. We will never forget you.🙏🌹

    This song should have a million hits. I remember when it came out and watching this at the time and buying Melanie's albums. She was incredible. I always play this song here and there and share it with others when times seem bleak, which they do right now. It gives a glimmer of hope, if only for a few minutes. ❤️

    I recall watching this on Ed Sullivan one Sunday night as a teenager. It blew me away then! The worst of Vietnam was on TV every night. Melanie captured not only the studio audience with that performance but every family watching from home. Very powerful! Thanks Mel💖

    Melanie Safka was on the last episode that Ed Sullivan hosted on May 28, 1971. There was a special for Memorial Day (May 30), but Jack Jones guest hosted that. The Ed Sullivan Show was then sadly cancelled. I'm glad Melanie was there for Ed's last show...He raved about Melanie...and rightfully so!!!

    This is my favorite rendition of Melanie doing this song. For a long while, it was missing from the Melanie page. Please don't take it down again, Melanie. I love it, and I'm so glad it's back.

    There's a quote I heard back in those days, I wish I knew who said it: "You can't end war by hating war, but you can achieve peace by loving peace." You get what you focus your energy on, no matter what energy you're focusing.

    Melanie, You carry so much power & honest emotion in such a small body! After all these years, I still believe there's a chance for Peace! To treat others with compassion & love. However there are days when I become overwhelmed by the anger, fear & hate in this world, especially the last several years. That's when I need music & remember the feelings of gathering at places like festivals (for the Earth, protesting for clean air, water, food, nonGMO's, taking care of each other, etc) there are many of us who still believe..... Thank you for the songs, the hope & love

  • @danielbassani6499
    @danielbassani6499 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I think she is one of the best of all times and I like many others, feel in love with everything about her! I got to sit behind her at the old Corral nightclub years ago as I ran sound for a band she was coming out to see. It was my only starstruck moment of my life and I will regret never saying hello! So just in case she sees this....Hello Melanie!

    There's STILL a chance PEACE will come in my lifetime. There's always HOPE as long as there are enough of us who want it with all our hearts and souls. Posting appreciated. Melanie Safka's recordings always offered comfort to those of us working so tirelessly for less suffering and more harmony. Appreciation to her as well. PEACE, LOVE, BREAD AND JUSTICE for ALL.
