Bonnie Raitt would be awesome for #FemaleFriday - she is a bad ass Blues guitar player, and awesome singer. I can’t make you love me and Let’s give them something to talk about are my first suggestions. Have a great weekend and THANK YOU for all you do.
Other reactors keep going with her slow ballads. She's at her best with fingerstyle or slide guitar blues like Three-Time Loser, Thing Called Love, or Love Me Like a Man.
I was going to suggest Bonnie Raitt's "Thing called Love".
I need to boost this signal. Bonnie is as amazing as Melissa, just in a different direction.
Angel from Montgomery another good Bonnie Raitt song
Oh I've been wanting them to play some Bonnie Raitt!
Not only does she rock, but she is a cancer survivor and an all around bad ass! 🤘
And David Crosby is the donor for her children. That’s rock royalty.
And she lost her son, I believe last year during COVID.
She rocked that shaved head to. And even looked incredible during that.
@@kelleewolfe3570 yes of a opiate overdose. Now she's fighting am raising money to fight it. Plus she is a advocate for the LGBT community
@@kelleewolfe3570 Yes due to opioid addiction, so sad.
Now that you finally heard Melissa Ethridge you def need to check out her tribute to Janis Joplin with Joss Stone from the 2005 grammys. Much Love!!
That was Melissa's first appearance back after beating breast cancer.
Oh yeah!
I hope Amber sees this post.
Fantastic suggestion.
Yes!!! That performance was absolutely amazing
That's 100% pure, unadulterated passion flowing through her vocal cords.
Melissa IS an older artist, but....older people can ROCK too! She is amazing.
Lol….I still get looks driving faster than I should music up too loud dancing in my seat…and I’m 65 😎
You forgot that us old farts INVENTED rock! :)
Hey!
@@juniorjohnson9509 Boomers can't do nothin'! Lol!
@@themysteriousdomainmoviepalace Always amusing when an idiot just has to show how immature he is!
*Bonnie Raitt "Something To Talk About"
*Alanis Morissette "Uninvited"
*Kim Carnes "Betty Davis Eyes"
(Kim sounds like a female Rod Stewart - amazing raspy gravely voice)
They did Picture, but the rest are great suggestions 🙂
Something to Talk About. Yes.
Bonnie Raitt yes definitely one of the best female vocalist out there
@@ruthparker9756 I've GOT to go watch it. I'll edit this & remove it. Thanks for the heads up, Ruth! I changed it to Alanis Morissette "Univited". They did "You Outta Know" but "Univited" is hauntingly beautiful & really shows her range. Hope you like that one!
also .. Alannah Myles "Black Velvet" is worth a listen
I know everyone is going to suggest “Come to My Window” but “Bring Me Some Water” is a ROCKER.
YES
I loved her duet with Joan Osborne. Look it up.
YES!!!
Come to my window and you can sleep while I drive.
That whole album was terrific
Finally!! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥 Bonnie Raitt is another one Amber will love! Same kind of grit and soul!
I love everything she does, but "Angel From Montgomery" from 1974 is a favorite.
If there's one thing that Melissa does is 'shred' her voice like no other! No matter how you feel about it, you can't but help loving her music while her activism just says 'We are all just us. Glad you are here as you!' :) Now my favorite Melissa Ethridge song 'Come to my Window' th-cam.com/video/ZrNcQOobZ6E/w-d-xo.html
Come to My Window is my favorite too 💕
mine too
Ditto!
I can't remember when Melissa finally got big enough to be safe in coming out as a lesbian, but it made such a difference in hearing all her previous songs of love and longing that were originally interpreted as if she was straight, and then all the ones moving forward, like this one. One of the best female voices in rock history. Definitely check out some of the other hits. I doubt anyone else has suggested that you listen to Nicole Atkins and her song 'The Way It Is', but she would blow you away. One of the most soaring and powerful choruses I know of, and gives me chills every time I hear it.
That's right, her songs fit from the song writers view as straight or gay. It all works as she rocks out.
So, for one lady you may not have ever heard of and has that smokey rock flavor to her voice. Alannah Myles is another amazing Female Artist i think you need to check out. Notably her most famous song is "Black Velvet" which was written about Elvis Presley went Top 10 in Canada and a #1 Single for her in the US earning her both a Grammy and a Juno in 1989. Other hits included "Lover of mine" and" Still Got this thing" she is definatly worth checking out. Trust the DJ.... I wouldn't steer you wrong! lol
Love Alannah. Memories of belting her out driving down country roads to school.
I came here to say this!
Yes! Love Black Velvet!
I’ve been asking for alanna she is amazing
A Canadian too boot
Amber will be happy to hear that Melissa Etheridge has covered some of Janis Joplin's songs, and she actually inducted Janis Joplin into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995. At the 2005 Grammy Awards show, Melissa Etheridge did a Janis Joplin tribute that was amazing. She was in chemotherapy at the time and showed tremendous grit appearing in public to perform that tribute. You can find videos of the tribute performance on TH-cam. Another great Melissa Etheridge song is "Come to My Window".
Absolutely!! I suggested that Melissa Etheridge/Joss Stone performance to them yesterday when they were reviewing Cry Baby!!
Yes, get both Joss and Melissa! th-cam.com/video/Z4IiRR__DWg/w-d-xo.html
Yaaaassss!!!
Grit! Yeah, that's the word Amber was looking for.
@@carlaharrington5120 I have suggested it too! Joss Stone is one I know Amber would love. Both would, but especially her!
Love to watch Amber melt down! We ALL knew you would when you finally did Melissa. So good!🔥🤙
She's one of the few vocalists that can scream and make it sound like singing.
This song was released in 1993 and was an instant hit for Melissa Ethridge. It's my favorite song by her. Her voice is so strong and haunting!💖💖
Bonnie Raitt is worth checking out. “Something To Talk About”, “Dimming of The Day”, “I Can’t Make You Love Me”, “Thing Called Love” to name a few.
Agreed, I think y’all would really like Bonnie Raitt. And if you liked this song, check out Aretha Franklin s Think (but NOT the one from the Blues Brothers movie). That song is essentially the grandmother of these badass 90s ladies songs.
Bonnie Raitt slow ride is a good one too
I second this. Love Bonnie Raitt.
Bonnie is amazing!
I love something too talk about!
Next stops: "Chrome Plated Heart," "Somebody Bring Me Some Water."
By the way, Melissa Etheridge worships Janis Joplin; she cites her as a major influence on her own music.
These are my 2 favorites from her. Both terrific songs.
I'll dance in time
and the times are ruff
I'll pay the price
and I'll pray that it's enough
Amazing lyrics
2 of my favorites from her! Those early Melissa songs were so raw and rockin! Plus - “Like the way I do”
Love Chrome Plated Heart!
Kim Carnes -- Bette Davis Eyes
Another unique female voice that is unmistakable once you've heard it.
Yes! One of my favorites!!!!
And Kim Carnes was in the We Are The World video 😁
I honest to God thought that it was Rod Stewart singing that song for YEARS!!! Great voice!
Look up her performance at either the Grammy's or the AMA's , as she's recovering from cancer, and she is belting out Janis Joplin hits. She has such a strong, amazing voice, it's just such an incredible performance. Amber would love it.
If that was the duet with Joss Stone it was a banger.
Here's to strong women may we be them may we support the may we raise them
She'd actually just come from a chemotherapy session right before that performance, and she said it took every bit of energy she had to hit that crazy note toward the end of the song...but she did it, and the whole performance was incredible! She went straight home after and right to bed...but that performance is iconic, and it blows me away every time I hear it. What I find even more impressive, is the way she handled her son's death last summer (2020). She'd been doing regular performances from home during quarantine, and she didn't stop. She said it's music that has always gotten her through the toughest times, so why would she stop? At the time, I'd just come home from the hospital after having a double bypass (heart surgery), and it was an emotional time for me...but watching her videos after she'd just lost her son gave me strength. She's always an inspiration.
A lot of people didn't know that Melissa was singing her songs to other women. They didn't figure it out until later on when she came out. She is an unbelievable singer and we couldn't get enough of her music. That raspy voice and the music itself was intoxicating!
This is one of the few songs that can give me goosebumps. Similar vibe would be Alanna Miles 'Black Velvet'
That would be an excellent song for these two to react to.
Yes
Whoa; I JUST requested this as well. 😄
I totally got goosebumps today. This song just usually hits the right spot!
They have to hear Black Velvet
Melissa Etheridge is epic…also check out KD Lang, “Constant Craving” for female Friday.
Also consider The Staples Singers where Mavis Staples is the lead like “Let’s Do it Again” - so soulful! Fun fact, Mavis and Bob Dylan had a romance back in the day but of course racism is why they couldn’t publicly be together.
I forgot all about KD Lang! Thanks for that reminder.
Mavis and Dylan, really?!??? Wow. 🤯
Yes yes yes to k.d. lang!
Try both with their version of "You can sleep while I drive." I prefer the the video from The Beat goes on.
"Crying" and her version of "Hallelujah" will make the hair on your neck and arms stand straight up
Melissa won an Academy Award for the song “I Need To Wake Up” from the Documentary “An Inconvenient Truth”. The only song from a documentary to ever win the Oscar for Original Song. She also has two Grammys.
Melissa Ethridge's debut was in the 80's but she is still active and performing to this day. I've had the pleasure of providing security for a couple of her shows in Albuquerque and had a great time. She is an incredibly kind and generous person with her fans and crew. Peace and Love!
This is my favorite Melissa Ethridge song along with “Come to My Window”. I always knew you would love her grit. I wonder if the term you are talking about with voices is “vocal fry”?
Amber, if you like Pink, you should like Kelly Clarkson. You’ve probably heard her, but would love to see her on Female Friday… early songs to present.
Kelly Clarkson, yes
If we're recommending more modern female rockers I want to urge you to listen to "The Pretty Reckless". A female lead that really rocks!
Miranda Lambert & Pink are my gurls!! Love this song too!!
Yes, she probably means vocal fry.
Kelly Clarkson, yes!!! Fricking love the video, as well, for "Stronger"
Bonnie Raitt, most definitely a double yes!!! Anything she's done is good, she's one of those musicians other musicians admire and ask to play on their tracks :-)
Love especially anything she's done with Bruce Hornsby - I think I saw your reaction to Heart doing their cover of "Stairway to Heaven" - she's the one in the audience who was doing "prayer hands" as she listened, 😆
Sheryl Crow would be another good one to cover. Might as well start with one of her first ones, "If it Makes You Happy"
Some Pretenders are also a must for FF, "Middle of the Road", please 🙂
"Middle of the Road", YES !
Bonnie Raitt is a lot like this. Thing Called Love is one of her hits.
Bonnie is also known for her slide guitar. Try "Something To Talk About" and "Angel From Montgomery" as well
Bonnie Raitt and John Lee Hooker's "I'm in the Mood" is worth a listen too.
💛💚💙💜
Love her song Give Them Something to Talk About
Melissa is always awesome!!! She did this song live at the White House in front of the Obamas. She was there with all female performers. Patti Labelle.. Ariana Grande ... Jill Scott??? Anyway a must see video
Melissa started in the '80s but she still performs and puts out albums. She hasn't gone anywhere
It's so great to see you're getting to Melissa Etheridge. She's an incredible performer! "Somebody Bring Me Some Water" was her breakout hit and it really showcases her bad-ass-ness! I hope you'll give it a listen! :)
YES!! th-cam.com/video/PCWODJffdaQ/w-d-xo.html
Similar Features, Brave and Crazy, Dance without Sleeping and more
Somebody bring me some water is great
And You Can Sleep While I Drive
When we heard it the first time we immediately went to the record store!
“I want to come over” is an absolute banger by Melissa. Such a great rock song
That's not the name of one of her songs. I think you're thinking of " Come to my Window"
@@patrickperry8951 sure it is. I literally have it on my Apple Music on album Greatest Hits: The Road Less Traveled
That's one of my favorite.
At 60 years of age Melissa is still incredible and a icon rock goddess. For a great slower ballad from her check out one of my favorites from her " You can sleep while I drive." Lyrically it is brilliant.
agreed, beautiful song
THIS!!! What a great song! 💯
I love the lyrics in Chrome Plated Heart.
@@agnez8646 I am tt
My personal favorite!
Melissa is really well known and great for her raspy rock voice. “Like the way I do” & “Bring me some water” from her debut album are other examples. But she can also do different, “You can sleep while I drive” is a beautiful ballad and “I need to wake up” is her contribution for Al Gores environmental documentary “An inconvenient truth”
She did a great version of You Can Sleep While I Drive with kd Lang that is wonderful. They should check that out also.
Ooh, bring me some water is one of my favorites!
Melissa Ethridge, a voice for all ages.
My nineties crush...
Amber, you will just love Bonnie Tyler - "Lost in France", "More Than a Lover", "It's a Heartache", "Total Eclipse of the Heart"
I second the endorsement of “Total Eclipse…”
@@scottNNJ Probably her best song. From many good songs
Oh, man. "It's A Heartache" was absolutely sublime. It was like pain itself given voice. I had forgotten. (And now I'm wondering if I could ever find another Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser of that vintage... nah, even if I did, where would I find that on 8-track again?)
Yes! Bonnie is great!!!
Can't forget about "Holding out for a Hero", another great one.
This is one of my favorite karaoke songs 😅 Melissa is so raw. I love her!! Her song COME TO MY WINDOW is so good
Bonnie Raitt. She's in that category. Do Bonnie Amber!!! You'll love her!!
OH YES! Bonnie Raitt!!
@@marciaramirez3791 I have a cute story. My friend has a pet rabbit that she named Bunny Raitt. She was talking to a friend saying she loves Bonnie Raitt. Her 5 year old grandson heard her conversation and Said I love Bunny Raitt too!
@@lisann229 Love that! Precious!
"Like the Way I Do" I think is the song that got me hooked on Melissa Etheridge back in the day.
Melissa has a brand new album out now. She is truly an incredibly kind woman and so talented. I've been listening to her for 30+ years. Glad you found her Amber.
Her Grammy tribute to Janis (with Joss Stone starting it out) is truly jaw dropping.She’s in the middle of chemo for breast cancer, totally bald & kicks ass. Close your eyes and you swear it’s Joplin!!
They need to check out Joss.
Come to my window is another great one by Melissa.
Gotta do Alanna Miles…Black Velvet.
Melissa is over 60 and still rock-in hard!
At 64 years of age, I've seen many, many concerts. With that said, Melissa put on one of the best I've ever attended! October 1999, Hill Auditorium, Ann Arbor Michigan.
I'm going to suggest The Indigo Girls to y'all, even though they're more Folk Rock than ROCK, but Amy and Emily are both PHENOMENAL guitar players, and singer/songwriters. Their harmonies are sublime.
"Closer to Fine", "Shame on You", "Get Out the Map" (Y'all love banjos and there's plenty on this song), are all great. They also do an amazing cover of Neil Young's "Down By the River" and Gladys Knight's "Midnight Train to Georgia".
YES!!!
Can't go wrong with Indigo Girls. I like those choices too. I'd add "Least Complicated", "Galileo", "Airplane", "Three Hits", and "Hammer and Nail".
@@BClarke I would suggest every song they've ever done if I could, I love them that much! "Nomads Indians and Saints" is probably my favorite album so I'm right there with you on "Three Hits" and "Hammer and Nail".
Ok i am a lez but come on…..i can’t stand you tree hugging, bible hating, folk singing lezzies!!!! Indigo girls? Really? Please don’t subject this couple to that crap. I am old too but get real - no one wants to hear them.
In fact when i was young and at a party, if they played the indigos I would be outta there asap.
You NEED KD Lang…no question..and Jann Arden…both are must haves
❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥. Amanda Marshall as well. Love you guys!! ❤️🔥
Oh, KD Lang is perfect!
Amanda Marshall. Dayyum. Believe in you. Birmingham. Beautiful goodbye.
KD singing "Crying" with Roy Orbison, is gold. Jan Arden is one of my favourites, especially like "Living under June".
Absolutely - I have suggested Amanda previously I think.
Yes KD! Singing Constant Craving, Crying, or Hallelujah (from Olympic Games in Canada - 2010 maybe?)
She writes her own songs, puts on an amazing show. One of the first openly gay performers which was a big deal back in the day. When this song came out she was not yet out herself but it was her singing to another woman.
Didn’t know she wrote them, too. Thanks!
I like that they played Melissa since today is International Lesbian Day.
Melissa has always been a rocker. The song that turned me onto her is still my favorite, and it’s called “Like the Way I Do.”
My favorite song of hers!
Exactly the same here.
Her First Big Hit !!!
Great song my favorite of hers too!
"Like the way I do" is my favorite as well!! LOVE that song!!! I think they would as well!!
“Come to my Window” was a huge hit for her in the nineties…and the official video stared Juliette Lewis, a pretty famous actress back in the day.. well, she’s still an actress but she was big back then… it’s a good one.
Her voice is like a razorblade. It's smooth to the edge, where it becomes sharp and bites.
She is from the Kansas City area. She sang the National Anthem at the Chiefs game on Sept 26 and with a little encouragement had the whole stadium singing with her. It was magical and made me cry.
I'm a Kansas boy, and we're extremely proud of Melissa.
We grew up in the same hometown, Leavenworth, KS…she was a year behind me in school. We knew her as “Missy” back in the day. Her dad was one of my high school teachers. We are very proud of her!
Suzi Quatro with "If You Can't Give Me Love" "Devil Gate Drive" "Stumblin' In"(a duet with Chris Norman) "Rock On"
My favorite Suzi Quatro is Your Mama Won't Like Me.
Suzi's "If You Can't Give Me Love" 1st. She was first female rocker to sing AND play an instrument, bass (after the all female band Fanny).
FYI-Suzi Quatro put out an album earlier this year called The Devil In Me, and it's quite good.
Thanks for the heads up. Be checking that out.
Yes! Yes!!! She is awesome! ‘Come to my window’, ‘if I wanted to’, ‘I want to be in love’…. Seen her twice and that she plays solo or with accompaniment… she is awesome! Melissa came around the late ‘80s and hit big in the ‘90s. Still tours today and thankful that she is a cancer survivor.
She is my absolutely favorite rocker chick! She has a lot of great songs!
I’ve been in love with Melissa since “Like the way I do”. She consistently puts out great albums and I’ve never felt more appreciated and loved by an artist than when going to her concerts.
Somebody Bring Me Some Water is another really good one by Melissa!!
Please put k.d. lang Constant Cravings on the list for female Fridays. 😎😎😎😎
Agreed - KD is so awesome!! Constant Craving and Consequences of Falling are done favorites.
My favorite Melissa Etheridge song, this and Come To My Window
🤘🤘🤘 give Bonnie Raitt let's give them somethin to talk about a listen if you wish
Melissa Etheridge "Come to my window" another great song.
She writes her own music. You can feel her singing from her heart. You can feel the longing in her voice that makes the story real.
Your next Melissa Ethridge song should be Come To My Window. You’ll LOVE it!!
"Come to My Window" is my favorite Melissa Ethridge tune
Melissa Etheridge performs Janis Joplin Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductions 1995, you will love...singing A Piece Of My Heart.
Nooo it was the mid 90’s the best of alternative rock. 90’s when I was single, playing, dancing, partying.
Another. Great. Reaction.
This is Melissa Etheridge at her zenith. This was early ‘90’s.
She reminds me of a more healthy, forthright Janis. Had she lived, she would likely have transitioned to sounds like this. Melissa was obviously heavily influenced by Janis and has spoken of her eloquently.
You should also react to her acoustic rendition of “Piece of My Heart,” which she performed live while inducting JJ into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995 - very brave and incredible performance.
Also her own tune “Come to My Window” is well worth your reaction. In some ways even stronger than this one.
It’s called belting. They sing with their “chest voice,” (Sound comes from the throat) rather than their “head voice” (Sound is aimed at the bridge of the nose.) think of opera singers. Since you just listened to her, Olivia Newton John uses her head voice.
She ROCKS!! Must watch "Like the way I do", 1988 live. Awez-mazing!!!!
My husband is a massive fan of Melissa Etheridge. I got us both tickets to see her live a couple of years ago and was my first introduction to her. She is so amazing live. Conversational, tells a story to every song, and of course has that amazing tone to her voice.
During the start of the pandemic lockdown she did daily (free) online concerts and said she was going to continue until lockdown ended no matter how many days, weeks, or months that took. She held true to her word until sadly her son unexpectedly passed away. She loves her fan base and I'm so happy my husband introduced me to her music.
Very talented musician and sonwriter. Top notch, still touring.
Oh man, Amber is gonna LOVE this one! Great choice once again, guys - peace and love from Canada!
Need to hear Brandi Carlile - “The Joke”…. Great song, great meaning.
or Brandi Carlile "The Story"
@@MsKrystal57 Yes! One of my favorite songs!
YES!
Definitely check out Bonnie Raitt ‘Something to Talk About’
It has been years since I heard this song. When it came on while working, I got into the groove and singing, dancing and playing "air" drums. For you young folks, I am a 72-year old Marine and Vietnam veteran. This is music that keeps me young.
Got to see and hear Bonnie Raitt!! She inspired and backed Melissa's career. Bonnie's induction to The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 2000 is perfect. She and Melissa do a duo "A Thing Called Love"!! Unbelievable guitar duo. Bonnie Raitt is simply unbelievable from her singing to her guitar playing!!!!!! Thank you for the great reaction!
Try Rock Steady. Bonnie is fierce.
Yay👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Melissa Ethridge was the very first CD I bought in 1990… she’s a bad ass!! I have every album she’s put out.. definitely need to hear more from her!! “If I Wanted You” or “Talking to My Angel” or “I Wanta Come Over”
I wanna come over is my favorite 🧡🧡
You guys would love to hear Melissa covering Janis Joplin... I believe it was her first public appearance after battling cancer.... So powerful
I remember when this first came out. So much grit!!
Melissa is AWESOME! One of the best concerts ever.
Melissa is the closet grit sound to Janis that's been out there. Melissa can absolutely bring the Power or be soft and emotionally wrapped up in the music. Don't know why but when it's road trip time I break out Melissa..the energy just matches. Love Melissa!!!!!!! Own all her music! She has a nice catalog to choose from.
I agree about Melissa
But in all honesty
You need to check out Beth Hart Rockin Out
She is Janis Joplin But Up To A 100
@@cjturner370 Love Beth as well, just something about those type of singers that get to me lol.
Melissa is so talented, with so many hits. Like the Way I Do, Come to my Window, Bring Me Some Water……her voice and catalog are amazing. And she was a pioneer in the LGBT movement. This song was on her album titled Yes, I Am…..which was a direct answer to the speculation that she was gay. It was groundbreaking. The first single was Come to my Window, which was about her romance with Julie Cypher, who was married to actor Lou Diamond Phillips (La Bamba, Young Guns, etc). Julie left Lou and was married to Melissa for many years♥️❤️♥️❤️
Imo Julie Messed with Melissa's Head so Mush
Julie still doesn't knows what or who she wants
But that's My 2 cent
Bonnie Raiit - top 100 guitarists of all time, Rock/Blues legendary female who learned from the o.g. pioneers of blues. 👍🙏
Love you two 💕
Bonnie Raitt with Bryan Adams -Rock Steady (fans self…is it hot in here?)
The Best! Melissa Etheridge
Melissa Etheridge is actually a huge Janis Joplin fan. Many years ago, she was even planning to make a Janis Joplin biopic (didn't happen though). I had a ticket to see her in concert when COVID hit, and it has been rescheduled a couple of times but is now set for next month. This song was 1993, but she did more both before and after this.
You guys check out Alannah Miles song, Black Velvet!!! Amber would love it!!
Saw her in concert and her voice was perfect. A great artist.
Patty Smyth of the band Scandal had several hits in the 80s. Their song "Goodbye to You" is always a favorite on karaoke night!
she is a powerhouse singer ,,, gave me goosebumps when i first heard her, when this came out ,, and still does ,,, mid to late 80's to answer ur question
Her music is fantastic! She is releasing a new album this week. It’s music similar to this song; it’s music she wrote in 1989, but didn’t release. She has had a rough year. Her son who was in his 20’s passed away in the summer of 2020 of an overdose. It’s heartbreaking.
Female friday needs Till Tuesday, voices carry.
"Voices Carry" by 'Til Tuesday (Aimee Mann on vocals). Powerful voice!!
FINALLY
Uncle Dino!!!! 🥰🥰🥰
@@scapito hugs, we can just sit here and be happy
Omg you did it! I am so excited that you like her
An incredible live performer. Rolling Stone dubbed her the female Springsteen, I have seen her live, she lives up to it.
YES !
"Like the way I do " is a fantastic song. Strong vocals and guitar. Not one of her more mainstream but worth a listen. It's a rocker.
Yes! So glad you reacted to this sing by Melissa Etheridge ❤
She has many hits!! Some songs that were never “hits” so to speak are just as good!!! I’ve always loved her, glad you liked her too!!!
My first time to catch Melissa live was in Austin Texas at a lesbian bar called "Oilcan Harry's Tavern". Melissa's a bad ass
Talon, Wow haven't heard that name in awhile.😎😎😎😎
'Somebody Bring Me Some Water' and 'Like The Way I Do'. These are my favourite songs of hers, serious rock. Thanks as always you guys,
Melissa has many great songs! A true performer. Chrome Plated Heart is my favorite
I have been her fan ever since I first heard the first line of this song. Melissa is one of the most incredible female artists out there. I've been requesting and am so glad you are impressed... do more, they are all great!
I found Melissa Ethridge in my senior year of high school ('90-'91). I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE her music!! One of my favorite female artists. Her first album is still my favorite, but I love all her music!
This lady is the blues on FIRE!!!
