[bsenalaska]

Man you are the bomb on this song!

EXCELLENT JOB!!!

[Antpot]

I like it, nice job.

[Mellomel]

@Antpot Thanks....Although it was done so long ago....and I have ideas of what I would do differently ..if I were covering this again....but that's cool that you found something positive about it. See you around.

[sextonj20]

I like it! Elton's version is the best, so to hear it covered and have it still please the ear is a pleasant surprise. Well done.

[leftfootlouie]

@mellomel Heard your "WALK WITH ME" IT's NICE . Read your story About finding Jesus.., EVEN BETTER.Your style choice is certainly represented in you name. To each his own .I grew up on the south side of Chicago along while back so, mello was never a thing I can admit  that I sometimes like but , to you I'll admit you have heart and talent and and I hope thing go very well for you in all your endeavors.

[leftfootlouie]

@ mellome As an "Artist" don't you think you should be wearing a suit  made of amour and not one made of feathers, as to not let my words ruffle them?You can take the "great job" comments with such willingness , why not the ones that don't rub you the right way?An Artist who wants to b e heard will be heard on all fronts!Not just your comfort zone.

[Mellomel]

I completely agree: I NEVER want to go around thinking that I cannot improve in any way...and that I am all that! I hope to always have the notion in my head that a little constructive advice here and there is a move towards improving and being all ya can be. Comfort zone has it's place, but not for everything...all of the time. I totally agree! Lay the truth on me...I say! That's what any of the greats would do.

[leftfootlouie]

@mellomel O.k. Since I'm an old M F my ears may be going so I'll retract that statement, do to the fact that my spearkers were'nt turned uprenough to hear your  sugary BASS lines.Like Elton SAYs' "GROW SOME FUNK "of your own .Post something original that will blow your audience away and leave that smooth jazz laxative to us old seaoned ready to die mother f....s. Next.

[Mellomel]

Now THAT's what I'm talking about! When I first read this comment....I was laughing. At the same time, I actually got something from it. I was so glad to know that you weren't some little kid. I was brought up understanding that an elder has earned the right to think whatever they want as well as say whatever they want. Not only do you get some respect from me...you have my full respect. And thanks for the chuckle. :)

[leftfootlouie]

I'm crying Wahhh .I want the royalties to this song Sorry but this version needs a better producer it is  all over the place.

[Mellomel]

@leftfootlouie

Learn to be a better critic without getting personal. What you just spoke leaves NOTHING. Are you just some little kid, or something? I see that you just been here a month...and may not have the sense of community. Who goes around with meaningless negativity while not uploading one thing theirselves? Who does that. Talk to me after you learn to upload your first video and I may have a little more respect > until then...you are doing WAY too much talking.

[TOmisterx78]

I'm crying... it's so beautiful!

[Mellomel]

Your comment is beautiful. That's why I work hard to do what I do. Thanks for making my day! :)

[TOmisterx78]

Music plays us... it's a kind of magic. We are just a strument... :-)

[sfxrules]

the poor bass playing boy would shit his pants, bless him, but hey, we all go through that right? There is always someone who is better, but it doesn't mean they'll make it. I'd like to know what you're doing at this point, are you working on any projects, live playing or recording?

[Mellomel]

Not only would I naot mind...I insist! That's what i am here for and what I'm all about!!

[wstoner]

I think there are times when we all would like to be able to go back and spend a few days in high school or remember a fun weekend with the family before growing up and moving out into the world.

[Mellomel]

Well put Wstoner. Glad to know that there are others who hopelessly long for their good ole' days....see you around buddy!

[NJLILI]

[Mellomel]

Wow....so good to see you again YT Mom!!!! I hope all is well over there! TTYS!

[MamboDogFaceOne]

Glory be! YT is behaving just enough tonite so I can hear your beautiful rendition! I love how this song builds to a brilliant conclusion - and Missy!! Does she take dance lessons or is this all from her own beautiful heart?

Love, Momz!

[Mellomel]

Ha ha ha....that's all of Missy's own stuff. We keep thinking to put her into some dance class...but the schedule is kind of bad right now.Thanks for seeing her starting abilities! Lol.

[slmnsongbrd]

[Mellomel]

I sure have been missing you Reba!!!! Thanks for stopping by....and I will see you around!!! :)

[hrumphga]

Chillin' time with Mel! YOu follow your heart, my friend, and stay with somgs that touch YOUR heart and you will never go wrong. Love this song, and love the treatment. Man, I wanna go back to the beach. Wife and I went to the Outer Banks at Thanksgiving and had a wonderful time, and this vid took me right back there! I could feel the breeze! Keep 'em comin', buddy. Jeff

[hrumphga]

Man, I have GOT to learn to type someday...

[MamboDogFaceOne]

It's nothing to do with the typing and everything to do with the message... :))

So much music touches my heart, and yours and Mel's are tops on my hit parade!

[hrumphga]

Mel, ain't she sumpin'? How sweet. I got another somg coming your way real soon.

[Mellomel]

That's why you are "Momz!" Lol.

[Mellomel]

Ha ha...I do this same "non~spell checkin" thing. I can so relate. I hadn't had time to reply to any of the comments yet...I will this week, but I had to reply to your Jeff! You know that you are officially my best guy buddy...right. You crack me up man! Sheesh! I think I will right a song about it! ...Ooh....I think I really will. You and a few others. Momz as well.

[hrumphga]

You're the best. No doubt about it.

[Mellomel]

well said Jeff! It took me a while to learn how to "follow my heart." I think there is still some learning I could gain for that.

[Vatsek]

Pretty good one.

[Mellomel]

Thanks vatsek! I really wanted to do this one...just for the memories. I was afraid it wasn't one of the most popular songs...but loved it so much, I began to not care. I do hope it brings back memories for some others though. Thanks for stopping by as usual!

[creativefisher]

Absolutely beautiful, this was wonderful! 5 stars, I'd give it a 100 stars if I could. Favorited as well.

[Mellomel]

Char? Is that you? Sheesh! I haven't seen you in so long my friend!!! I miss your singingand creativeness! I will come by and visit to see what you have been doing with your artmanship! Lol.

[creativefisher]

hehe.. Yes I have been gone, too long it seems... there is A LOT of new things to see. :) You look like you are doing very well, I am loving these new videos of yours!

[Mellomel]

I can't wait to check out your latest creations as well. I would like to collab with you one day!!

[Skrapper]

It's a shame we can't go back in time.

Well done Mellomel, see you around buddy ;)

[MamboDogFaceOne]

Actually, I go back in time every time I hear or see someone recreate the past as brilliantly as this - it's ... I would say "godly" if I were of that persuasion, but it (music) is an essence of *being* anyway, and has always been for me, holy.

[Mellomel]

You are to cute Momz!!! Well put as well!!!

[Mellomel]

I sure would if I could! Thankks for stopping by as usual Skapper!

[Elzothequack]

Truly godly. Honestly, I really hope that when I'm an adult I can relate back to my teenage years in this fantastic way like you can.

[Mellomel]

You humble me all the time with yur comments! Thanks for stopping by E!!!

[SmilingMoonBreeze]

[Mellomel]
