OK...youtube did it again...recommended a song way off the mark. Was listening to the Sounds of Juptier from the NASA transmissions a few months ago...logged back into youtube today and this was recommeneded because I listened to Jupiter???? If anyone is able to see the connection let me know. Actually, Jupiter sounds a bit more peaceful and relaxing but hey that's just my opinion. Who the eff is this person?
@doobeedoo58 Melanie Safka. She performed at Woodstock. I'd love to know what algorithm YouTube used to get from Jupiter to Melanie. Talk about a non sequitur....
In a world of ignorance and uncertainty, Melanie shines still like a beacon of goodness. She stands by her beliefs. No fads, no trends, just a genuine woman. Whatever god you believe in, bless her.
Beyond a genius and she always will be the greatest singer composer on the planet! The garbage singers of todays generation couldn't wipe her feet.God only knows that 99% of singers today are human trash.That's just mere fact
How things have changed. Nowadays they wear skimpy outfits and cant sing and the words of the songs have little meaning.Melanie dresses conservative, voice of an angel and words of her song makes all the sense in the world.
This song made me think so differently about people. It made me realize that we're all Beautiful People. It made me realize that I am a Beautiful People too. <3
melanie safka was around before marilyn manson was born.sorry marilyn manson couldn't write the first sentence to this song.please don't compare the high priestess melanie safka,tho marilyn manson.marilyn manson needs to get singing lessons from melanie safka.and tips on how to write songs.melanioe safka has written only 397 songs,cheers chris
Melanie fans! Catch Melanie’s appearance on Dave’s Gone By, Sat, noon-3pm(ET) April 2, 2011 on UNC Radio (uncradio.c *m). If you miss the show, hear it in the archives at davesgoneby. c*m.
@garebear1015 yeah, our uncle charlie is alot nicer today rather than that one uncle charlie they had back in the 60's. it's not manson blood....its tiger blood.lol.
@Ocielocique she doesn't play left handed, this part of the video is flipped horizontally. watch the relative position of the 2 microphones and the shadows (of the chair and her nose)...
she doesn't play left handed, this part of the video is flipped horizontally. watch the relative position of the 2 microphones and the shadows (of the chair and her nose)...
@Ocielocique Are you kidding? Its just the cut - for some reason the clip has been inverted. Compare the Microphone stands. The lower one also changes the side???
@Ocielocique It is called the willing suspension of disbelief. You are actually watching moving pixels on a flat screen but you assume that it is three dimensional. In a video editor it is easy enough to flop the frame for editing purposes and it only seems like she switches playing her guitar.
excuse me person below melanie career goes way back before janis joplin don't even think about comparing this beautiful human being with that horror janis joplin.in fact when janis joplin died it was mistaken identity humanity thought melanie died that 's when that janis got recognition after death unfortunately .and on top of it there's no comparison in singing melanie blew her away in every shape and form.
wow a real genuine singer you mean they still exist? i don't think so, of course they do melanie safka now today still beautiful and of course cyndi lauper,joan baez and that's about it and thank god they are still around today.because there is no music today.so let it be written.that's only fact based
@brabon1 : Yeah basically 60's and 70's was the best. I'm not even from the 60's though. I was born in 1989 and discovered Melanie by accident. But she's my favorite. I got to meet her at a concert too. She was so friendly and I also have things signed from her including a program from her 1971 "Gather Me" album. I met her husband too for the first (and sadly last time He passed away a few days after the show). I'm kinda lucky. I know Melanie, her PA, and the moderators on her website.
@FolkMusicFanatic it makes me happy when i hear that a younger person enjoys this music
i was lucky...my parents allowed me to be exposed to all forms of music....from classical, jazz, big band and rock
this was a very special time in music...when song writers were allowed to perform their own stuff (mostly cuz the record companies were all looking for the new beatles)
@SteveTwoTheO because they are loved by the earth because they love and take care of the earth and take care of them sleves and each other instead of exploiting the earth and each other. they know that health is the greatist gift and that the body is a temple to be worshiped and taken care of and not to just be exploited by its host. etc etc, bla bla bla; yada yada yadda
The only thing wrong with her eye's is she's high. Growing up in the 60s, I'm quite fimiliar with the look. I love her singing and she was so hot in her hay day. I use to have her pictures that I got out of tiger beat mag all over my bedroom walls. Drugs do take their tool and lives. Mary ann faithful was beautiful and a beautiful voice, but drugs took thei tool on her.
@Klaaaan1 I grew up in the 60s too and am quite familiar with 'the look' of being stoned. This is not it. Don't get me wrong - I don't care whether she's stoned or not. But in this case, she's not.
@davehshs Which ever she is, she's beautiful. I thought I heard her in the 60s till some one said she didn't have a song out till 1971. My memories are a bit scattered, so it must have been another singer with a simuliar voice. I was in Da Nang in 1971. Over there all the music was played over the Armed Forces Radio on these megaphone speaker's. Things sure have changed.
not that it matters however person below or above melanie has written more songs then joni mitchell could shake a stick with and unfortunately to joni mitchell melanie blows her away in any shape or form cheers
I always loved Melanie, and am glad to see other fans here too. I never heard anyone quite like her - voice, style, lyrics - were part of that time yet a sound unique to her alone. She always makes me smile and her music makes my heart soar.
Sounds like you might benefit from some gunja, or has senility already set in. So you're 60, not a great age in an era which celebrates youth and good health. Try some gunja, or meditation, they might help with your hysteria. Nothing I fear can assist with your loneliness.
Evidently there are 22 people who do not understand music or for her contribution to society as a whole. Melanie is still touring. A tad older but still a beautiful person. Peace to all the beautiful people.
This song remind me that one that I loved...that one that I love and isn't with me...but i love this song, even without her...thank you so much Melanie, for saying exactly what I feel!
This is a song that should be played every morning by every radio station and in every school just to remind the people on earth that it is easier and better to live together in peace and love.
Die ist ein Lied, das jeden Morgen von jedem Radiosender und in jeder Schule um die Leute daran zu erinnern, dass es einfacher und besser ist, in Frieden und Liebe zusammen zu leben.
C'est une chanson que tout le monde faudrait écouter tous les matins pour rappeler les gens d'une vie pacifique. !Peace!
pgh......sighhhh, that generation changed the world for the worse...Now, starting in Nov '10, we start to change it back and in 2012.......a new President, seeing that the current one is overwhelmed........BTW, I think Melanie did a fantastic job on this number....Think I'm gonna play it again....
I've always loved this song since I was 12 years old and that's a long time ago. But this is the first time I see the face of the woman who sings this song. Yes finally! I see the person behind the voice after all those years! It's kinda fascinating.
"If I weren't afraid you'd laugh at me I would run and take all your hands, and I'd gather everyone together for a day. And when we gather'd I'll pass buttons out that say - Beautiful people - Then you'd never have to be alone. Cause there'll always be someone with the same button on as you.
Include him in everything you do. He may be sitting right next to you!"
Was probably the most important influence on my music, together with Mary Travers. At the age of seven, I listened to them all the time. Still have the album "Affectionately, Melanie" . One of the best albums ever.

This is a song that should be played every morning by every radio station and in every school just to remind the people on earth that it is easier and better to live together in peace and love.
Die ist ein Lied, das jeden Morgen von jedem Radiosender und in jeder Schule um die Leute daran zu erinnern, dass es einfacher und besser ist, in Frieden und Liebe zusammen zu leben.
C'est une chanson que tout le monde faudrait écouter tous les matins pour rappeler les gens d'une vie pacifique. !Peace!

Melanie is awesome, She's original with her music, has an excellent voice, and her guitar playing is first class.

pgh......sighhhh, that generation changed the world for the worse...Now, starting in Nov '10, we start to change it back and in 2012.......a new President, seeing that the current one is overwhelmed........BTW, I think Melanie did a fantastic job on this number....Think I'm gonna play it again....

I've always loved this song since I was 12 years old and that's a long time ago. But this is the first time I see the face of the woman who sings this song. Yes finally! I see the person behind the voice after all those years! It's kinda fascinating.

"If I weren't afraid you'd laugh at me I would run and take all your hands, and I'd gather everyone together for a day. And when we gather'd I'll pass buttons out that say - Beautiful people - Then you'd never have to be alone. Cause there'll always be someone with the same button on as you.
Include him in everything you do. He may be sitting right next to you!"
:) Beautiful song and beautiful singer!
Peace please, for all and everyone!

Was probably the most important influence on my music, together with Mary Travers. At the age of seven, I listened to them all the time. Still have the album "Affectionately, Melanie" . One of the best albums ever.
