Melanie Safka Tuning My Guitar

[unchele]

hall of fame, ???? fk she in my hall of fame she in me heart

[keygain]

My favorite of all Melanie's recordings.

[mysterymyself]

sounds like Bjork

[steviebboy69]

@mysterymyself Thats what i thought it sounded like Bjork. i have never heard this song before but i really liked it at first listen.

[stefandetrez]

I named my daughter after Melanie.

[SirDcitykity]

The stats show Shoeless Joe tried to win, but he is not in Cooperstown. Talent and passion seldom beat power/money and luck. I love Melanie. She is not rock and roll. She is not pop. She is not folk. She is a force unto herself. The accolade of induction would diminish the reality of her.

[gazrobbo53]

Thanks Melanie. Am now 56 and have loved you forever.xxxxxxx

[SuperSojourn]

Not sure, is she not in the hall of fame? Wow! Say it ain't so. How does one, help? To ignore her unique contributions would be a travesty.

[chewyguythecat]

Melanie.....I have loved you since Margies birthday party at Carnige hall. Saw you several times at Valley Forge Music Fair...with the revolving stage...recently at Hippie Fest at Mann music in Philly, Pa....Why arent you touring new record....its great....Love robbielpn2005@yahoo .com

[johniii50]

Saw her at woodstock. would love to see her sing again.

[GreatBonFire]

My favo song! Though I did have all lp's this, the first I heard is still above 'em all!

[hippee77]

Love Melanie! I signed!! 

[MasterRecordNando]

melanie is amazing

[danvers0549]

thank you..REAL MELANIE!! love this LP..Thank u for posting this

I would like to hear 'Alexander Beetle' if poss!!

[danvers0549]

thank you..REAL MELANIE!! love this LP..Thank u for posting this

[AshamedofHumanity]

Personally I doubt she cares! It's just a popularity contest that hall of fame crap! And she is so far beyond that - she's above that! I don't think she cares if the rich and famous inductees like her or not, she's about doing what she loves and getting out her message of loving one another. When we're all equal what does it matter if you got a trophy? And how many songs have you heard her sing about unity and loving each other? And how many about her wanting more fame? I think shes happy

[1Greenlabel]

Shes the queen of her guitar...very very good

[scottishale]

I love Melanie ! I had the biggest crush on her . I'm so glad to see that she's still around . I'll sign !!

[TheChaplinLover]

She's got my vote!

[gazrobbo53]

Love you Melanie. xxxxx

[thesixtiesguy]

Where do I sign? R&R hall of fame is for everyone who touches us thru their music and their message. Two reasons why Melanie should be there. What heart and soul.

[nacapula1]

You suggest there is no fame without that hall of fame? There are many musicians outside this "hall of fame" why bother, this simply isn't rock and roll and why should it be? I donlt sign this hall isn't of any importance for this kind of music.

Sorry.

[the1musiclad]

it's not just rock and roll artists who get inducted into the r&r hall of fame.

madonna, leonard cohen, blondie, miles davis, michael jackson plus many many more are in it and they arent what i would call rock and roll.

the term (ever since the late 50's) has lost all meaning and become more generic.

it is basically a popular music hall of fame.

[zip891]

woodstock needs no hall of fame. woodstock = hall of fame

[the1musiclad]

...and melanie deserves to be in it

[SockBoy65]

Excellent videography on that. Fabulous song, by a fabulous woman.

[wrk4light]

A purist..... whose message will never escape some of us who were there then. Love you Melanie!

[Ingelke77]

Can anyone give me the lyrics of this song?

THNX

[davidrmorrison1955]

Honey sweetness, not saccharin sweetness.

Nearly 40 years ago now. And the truth is still the same.

Free speech one each. And I'm with the singer.

[mastermeda]

She shouldn't and would never be in the rock and roll hall of fame. Why? Simply because shes a folk and pop artist.

[showtuneful]

She is a Folk singer. Love her.

[fullmoonhunt]

We need a effort to get Melanie into the Rock in Roll Hall of Fame!

[gitarrefish08]

it´s very good song

[keygain]

Your voice never fails to captivate me.

[vortexnyc]

but when will she tune her guitar? time's runnin' out !

[Arkanix]

Im disgusted that she is not in the R&R hall of fame.

[throbespana]

Yes sign the petition Melanie Rock and she should be in, the powers to be should be ashamed that she is not already in there, shame on you Cleveland and TRARHOF

[jonrickly]

put her in!!

she touched me back then..

nuff said.

[numbnuts234567]

Rock and Roll? Sure, and how about Barbara Steisand or Judy Garland...

[MAYPOHEAD]

Melanie was the Hippie Queen, the Goddess of Woodstock Generation. Her entry into the R and R Hall fo fame should not even be discussed it is required!

[holmsatlarge]

melanie does`nt need the "the r&r hall of fame"word of mouth seems to secure her a place in music history...her talent, once heard,is her own HALL OF FAME,after all,how did you find her?;-}

[fliordie]

Hola

La musica de Melanie Safka

es muy hermosa

me emociona

[stinksister]

I bought Back in Town as i was 13.

Acctually my Mother did.

Now i'm 52, and still in Love with the voice and the image of this magic woman in the inside of my skull.

Haha tanx for the postings.

Ptr

[AngelicaF15]

someone who know the chords to this song?

[kallejesus]

I have signed the petition. I urge all of her fans to do the same..

[thisdudesacoolguy]

i also wish some one would upload the song ''i am not a poet, and also let it snow ....2 great songs from melanie.....thanks for sharing

[volapuk151]

wonderful

[cedarjet707]

Someone sent me a version of Beautiful People. Instantly I rallied to support her, could we go on tour ? Could we do it together ? And then I started researching, 67 was when it was recorded. I Cried. And now I"ve found Melanie is on tour ! God bless her with the exceptance from the human species as a messanger of the light. May they hear her for what she truly is, and be gratefull she has been this long on the planet. Peace love and light brothers and sisters.

heidi little

[thesetup85]

Could you upload her song called "I am not a poet".

Please.

[Titan752]

I loved her when I was 20-21 years old... now, I am 56.... God! Can a love affair with an 'angel of peace' last that long? She still mesmerizes with a song and that warm, pixie smile! I have signed the petition to have her inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame! For the many years of listening to her magic, I would say that it is about time she was awarded the honor!

[jdmarcus59]

she is so good,that it is beyound words.

[beclyde]

spellbinding

[chandrajmoon]

I just saw her live tonight in Bristol UK - wonderful wonderful

[martin043]

I never heard this version of this song, it's defenetily different from the ones i know.... from wich album is it???

[Rakehall]

live at the BBC - fantastic album !

[gazrobbo57]

Its from Affectionaly Melanie. Also on a few live versions. x

[keygain]

Melanie will always be my favorite entertainer of all times. She mesmerized me from the release of LAY DOWN to the present. To me, she is the queen of the folk era and the hippie generation.

Much love, Melanie. I think you're sensational.

[pghpa611]

We love you Melanie.....

[unclealand]

Sure, let her in the R&R Hall of Fame. Madonna got in, what the hell! It only takes fifty-cents and a boxtop.

[iriswigle]

This looks like the cover Melissa Etheridge no relative to Janis but who has tried occassionally to do covers for Janis Joplin music??? I am not convinced that this is Melanie Safka 1962-1983

[blabababa]

Yes, I will be atending your concert somewhere in the UK this year. I just realize I remember every word of all your songs..... Love

[laustererk]

Where were all you Melanie people when I was the only 13 yr old kid in the world listening to her? Just kidding, I'm sure you were dealing with your own stuff.

[edovanleeuwen]

i went to the shop to buy mr tamborineman ,her first album ,but no shopkeeper ever heard of her.

who know s? were her mental strings out of tune a while?

[holmsatlarge]

her first album was"Born to be".

[jennjuniper1952]

melanie safka you were my youth your words always inspired me.and my children loved alexander beetle and christopher robin and because melanie had such a wide variety of music she appealed to all ages.I still love her.

[lennoxkiel]

yes my favorite Melanie song. It was ever the first l.p. I bought Melanie Live.

I signed also yes

[groba50]

really great... I signed the petition!

[1955c]

she is the greatest always has been

[jdmarcus59]

[john8905]

I still want to cry when I hear this after all these years

[HavingAGreenDay]

Melanie was the era all wrapped up. She is perfect. Love her so much. She is so beauatiful and so real.

[languagedancer]

Without this womans music the soundtrack of my life would be full of holes and lacking in resonance
