I was named after this song in 1976 to the day. I am 35 today, and it has a ton of meaning to me. I wish I could ask Erykah to sing this for all of the people stuggling with MS and any other lifetime disorder. She has a very gifted voice and has a very uplifting sound. :)
Like everyone else on here, I long for Ms. Badu to do a full recording of this song! No wonder I can't find it...she's never done one! Always been a Badu fan and she just keeps adding to her legend!
This song is beautiful. It's an Allman Brothers origina,l name of the song is Melissa . I've never brought back a movie this many times, Erykah Badu totally captivated me in her rendition. Yes i too would love to hear her sing this song in its entirety. Until then playback one mo' gin
I just saw this movie for the first time today and it is now one of my absolute favorites. I loved this part so much, her voice is just amazing. I agree with everyone else, she soooo should have recorded this song. Love love loveeee it!
I have tried to find this version of Sweet Melissa for so long! Eryka has such a beautiful voice. It sucks like everyone else said, she should have recorded it.
I love this version of Melissa. I wish Erykah recorded it. I also would like to find the chords for this song in this key. I'm not a very good transposer! :)
Yes I definitely love this part of the movie I cried throughout the whole thing but this brings tears to my eyes becasue she takes a country song and puts soul into it...I think I may have to do a cover of this!!!
Ahhh, I love this! I've been looking for the soundtrack to that movie everywhere so I can hear the whole song with Erykah Badu singing..so beautiful, thank you!
Sorry its taken me a while to get back but there actually isn't a full song cover for this. I guess Erykah didn't want to do the full song and David Dachovoney said that it was this part was mostly improvised.
Aww i LOVE this whole time she was singing I was just screaming LOL !!!!!
