Melanie Safka - Some Day I'll be a Farmer

[mice224]

i was born deaf and my mother taught me to listen to melanie in early 70`s and i grew up trying to sing this song and now i`m gonna get cochlear implants and i can`t wait to listen to this song.

There is nothing good in this performance. Wishful thinking...

Yet another moronic performance from an overrated singer.Doesn't this woman know when to quit her hippie lifestyle? Too damn liberal for my tastes.

[SigMaQuint]

She has an official website as well as information on MySpace.

[TLSPSHEL2]

still her voice is powerful

[Melaniesafkaking]

yep Beau that was cute :) x

[dirtycoffee22]

those sneakers make me want to cry

Yes - at 62 nature has taken her upper register from her. But she is still a fantastic performer and she can still take the stage and mesmerize you with stunning vocals and stories of an age gone by -but not every time. We love her because she is the last of the great acoustic performers that has always preferred to entertain the masses Live and not just on studio albums - actually preferring Live. She does music the way it was meant to be done - with no "out of the can" electronic crap.

The years have not changed the mischievous little girl voice, powerful, full of fun, and the musical mastery paramount. I hope you might perform at the Stone Mountain Center in Brownfield, Maine, some fine day.

This is so great! How lucky are we that Melanie is still alive and performing? Unlike so many greats of the 60's - Joplin, Hendrix, Lennon - she's still kicking! Go Melanie! And how do we find out where she's performing these days??

[sunshinedaydream09]

anyone know where to get the guitar chords?

[weetam50]

Oh my goodness, this is Melanie? What happened? Dreadful.

[maryjanemars]

Please remember to sign the Petition to get Melanie Inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame! She so deserves this!!

You can sign at my space flower power lives!

This song inspired me and I have held this dream of working the land....maybe one day? Melanie you are great.... i will love you forever.

[wizzard102]

To be fair the quality of this recording doesn't flatter her!

[circleofhands]

she's eating well these days

[kkdogg427]

love her. shes great!And no one sounds the same live as they do on the record.Such a powerful voice still.Put Melaine in the rock and roll hall of fame!

[TangSongs]

Ouch is right! Her voice is just dreadful. This is not singing!

[SkeeterNYC]

Give her a break she's post menopause. I take it you're not hip to Marianne Faithfull, the late Nico and Nina Simone, or in recent years Joni Mitchell, or Nina Hagen, Lene Lovich, Siouxsie, Lisa Gerrard or Diamanda Galas's deeper tones.

[sweettalkingwoman67]

Ouch! I've only heard this song off the album...Wow maybe I shouldnt have looked it up..now I will never get this out of my head :S

[TarBabyJim]

Thanks!

[SHAFFERAL]

I always loved her voice and have most all her albums from the 70s',,,but i must say, she has lost her voice. Pity.

[karenglover]

absolutely brilliant, sorry to have missed her in London but i will be there in Manchester in September for sure

[melanerd1947]

She is so wonderful.  If you feel the same way, go to her website and sign an online petition to get her inducted into the Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame. She deserves it! This video brings it all back.
