This track is from 1972 -- it charted moderately ( Top 40 ) and got into the charts in a number of countries, including Australia. It was released by Buddha to compete with 'Ring the Living Bell' after she had left them to form her own label, Neighbourhood Records in 1971.

  • RIP Peter Schekeryk

  • @Chiller30001993 Thanks Chiller. I always thought so, too. Born in 1954 gave me a chance to be raised on some great music during some very interesting times. Power to the Peaceful.

  • Believe it or not, Melanie had THREE top-40 songs on Billboard's Hot 100 in the issue of February 26, 1972. Her only #1 hit, "Brand New Key", was #24 that week, "Ring The Living Bell" was #34 and "Nickel Song" was #36.

    Doubt me? Look it up.

  • What memories this brings back ~ listening to it on AM radio in the car with my parents. I feel 6 years old again!

  • Well, my old man listened to this music, I found a vinyl with this song on it, took it randomly.. and one thing led to an other

    I have to admit, you people had great music.....

    Greets, an other generation.

  • and gambling is illegal in the state of mind i'm in

  • Nice, nice song. She's great!

    

  • Ah, Melanie, how I loved you way back then! What a voice and what a writer--still love ya.

  • A song better than its sales. I prefer it to the silly Brand New Key. The sentiments are more true than ever. Only puttin' in a nickel....
