This may be Melissa's best song: most sophisticated, musically, and otherwise. Although "Through the Eyes" would have to be a very strong second, if it is a second.
@olivialetourneau13 You should check out more of the 70's music in Pop, Disco, Soul, etc. You have not heard anything yet. I'll tell you something. The music of the 70's used to be played on radio stations across the country at one time.
No more, because if young people today heard it? It would make the garbage they call music today sound like trash.
Trust me, seek out 70's tunes and you will hear for yourself of all that you are missing.
This woman had an absolute Canon for a voice, and under complete control.. Ive been comparing here to others..Streisand, Ronstandt , Mitchell..don't know to much about Carey or Beyonce.
It seems to me she had the most powerfull voice of any femakle singer I have ever heard.. Perhaps Ohters had a mopre beuatiful; tone , but hers was certainly very beuatifuol as well.
I thought it was like the theme song for the movie Babe, the talking pig. Turns out they aren't related, except for the name. Oh well...it reminds me of that movie. :/
Such a powerful voice! And I miss when artists were accompanied by what amounted to an orchestra, even if it was digitized. Beautiful piece, haven't heard it in years, and then found it randomly on here tonight. Thank you! :D
i think baby is her & she missed the big time/ in this case ,love/ but only the guy who wrote this song knows what it means, as he puts it in the words of a circus. maybee his baby fell off the highwire lol ..
This song has the ability to make me feel a great deal of sadness. A Haunting array of emotions are stirred up from deep inside me but at the same time, it's a beautiful song /sound. Thanks for uploading.
I always thought this song was about keeping in one's feelings. What have I been missing?! How is this song positive? Not 'crying out loud' got me locked up with 28 stitches in my fucking arm.
Melissa sings this song with unique timbre at times: I don't believe it is at all very easily beatable, or matched. Thank you for the montage.

i like the line "the different kind of love she thought she'd found,there was nothin' left but sawdust and some glitter"
makes me think of another line from another song..."that's when those louses, go back to their spouses. Diamonds are a girl's best friend."
