She is a such an awesome performer and her songwriting is just mind-blowing. I love how you can listen to any of her songs, then relate to your own life or even her life (if you are a die hard fan like me!). Keep rockin' Melissa! and see you next month! x)
I just want to make this beautiful dream come true.
Every day I wake up is another blessing because I’m live and I can sing from my heart. Well, Music is all I have in my life and it’s all I NEED to live.
‘Cause without it I couldn’t smile, dreaming, singing and living.
And all I need to come true this amazing dream is your support .that’s all it takes
Melissa makes music for her fans... I don't think her music at this point is about picking up new and younger audiences. I don't think kids today could get past the fact that she had a mullet, isn't the "pretty", and clearly looks like a lesbian. But, there will be some young girl who will hear her music and just get how good Melissa's music was... her last album was shite. But i'm still a fan
Is Melissa still recording? This was the first of her songs I heard and I remember her performing it with Joan Osbourne. I went out and purchased the CD and saw her in concert. My older brother and I used to sing this one in the car when we were driving.
I saw this 1st tour in 88 at the tx longhorn for 10 bucks and fell in the with her and voice with all true messagesin all her songs...and now loved for 23 yrs....u keep me going GF ..keep it up we LUV YOU!!!!!
@gypsyd2002 oh my god so did I and I havent stopped loving her. I do think she's better from the beginning of her career than now. She is and always will be amazing.
Saw her when she was starting out...she played at Blossom and opened for Bruce Hornsby. No one had heard of her but that changed after her performance.
@Butterfly15323In the 80's when Melissa was a big hit, thoughts of her being a lesbian didn't cross our mind, & if others had thought she was, kept it 2 themselves. But she looked like a woman, dressed like a rough chick, wearing mans clothes cos this was her image and we loved it, so r u the type of person that looks at a woman with a shaved head wearing jean, shirt, thinking 2 urself shes a lesbian. Not that she might have cancer or had it saved 4 cancer research or likes havin no hair.
@Butterfly15323She looks like a woman! open ur eyes, f****n wank. Woman don't have 2 look like a dud 2 be considered a lesbian. This look was normal in the 80's 4 men & woman. So does this mean I looked like a dud in the 80's cos I 2 dressed like this & I'm not a lesbian, not that there's any thing wrong with that.
This is the second video I produced for Melissa in 1988 with famous Music Video Director Tony Van Den Ende on London's Vivid Productions. (no not the porno house!) We shot in a club call Mississippi Nights in St Louis and a club in Lexington Kentucky of all places. At the time actor Lou Diamond Phillips (LaBamba)was a cose friend. I thought it was a great time to bring a female Assistant Director since there were not many so I brought Lou's wife Julie Cypher. Well the rest is history!
@gregoryrobinson215 She has hardly done that-she continues to be a well-loved, top performer. She has changed and altered her music style from time to time, but that just makes her versatile. The millions of us who have followed her career from the beginning say 'what the hell do you know about it'?
@Free2bepurp nicely said Free... well as u can tell, gregory is a boy!! Obviously doesn't know a damn thing about her, her journey or the story she tells on reflection in her music... the great woman with soul has never needed nor wanted to be famous, she is just telling a story for those who may need or like to listen to the tales she has to tell :)) xxxxx
come check out my version of IM THE ONLY ONE!! Pls let me know what you think - if you hate it or love it, i dont mind - would just love some feedback!
@ilovalivia I THOUGHT it WAS Tina Turner the very first time I heard this song, granted my itty bitty boom box speakers were not the best! Amazing you mentioned TT.

This is Melissa's first music video, filmed at the Mississippi Nights Club, St. Louis in 1988, and directed by Julie Cypher.
Over 21 years later, and Melissa still sounds briliant, she can still bring us to our knees :)
