So sad... My husband went to high school with Melanie. She gave a concert and would always walk with a guitar on her back. As for me, being French born and now living on Melanie's territory in New Jersey, this is with this song we remember Melanie, for the French line "ils ont changé ma chanson." RIP and thank you.

I couldn't have found a better mom if I tried. I already miss you so much. So sorry you couldn't be here today. I know St Patricks always been your favorite day of the year. You were never a beer drinking so guess I'm gonna have to find me some Irish Whiskey and will take a shot for both of us to celebrate life and our family heritage. All of my love to you. Please always stay close to me, I still need you in my life so much. Both my Mom and my best friend always. We taught each other so much but you taught me so much more than anyone else. Thank you for introducing me to the best of music. It's helped carry me through life and hopefully it will help carry me through these last remaining years of my life. It's going to be so hard without you here with me but I'll try. I love you so much Mommy. This song has always made me think of you so from me to you, hope you are still listening. ❤❤❤

This was my favourite song in 1970/71. I’d spent years of being sexually abused by Catholic Brothers and a Priest at a NSW Australian boarding school and under the dreadful pressure of a Mum who had Narcissistic Personality Disorder. I made the decision to leave Australia for a Government job in Australian administered Papua New Guinea. Melanie’s song voiced words that spoke to how my life (not song) had been wrecked and gave me inspiration that I could make “everything alright”. I did. It took many years, study and professionally qualified, before I reached happiness., Lived around the World but happily back in Australia now. In my 70’s now and still listening still listening to and loving Melonie’s songs! Thanks Melonie!

I was in NY in 2002 chaperoning my sons choir and saw that she was performing at a quaint distant club called The Turning Point. I had the other chaps cover for me and paid a cabby over $100 to drive through NY, then Jersey through the woods until we arrived to find out a bus took the same route for $4. I met Melanie and enjoyed her fantastic performance. What a voice!

you were in Piermont, NY. you got off of the Tapanzee, turned left on the main road, then made another left down a hill on some small road that faced the Hudson River. I saw Melanie perform at the Turning Point many times. She was always with her husband Peter and son Beau. She didn't seek fame or fortune, but she left at her mark with everyone she met. I remember one night a fan yelled out to sing "Angel of the Morning" and she said that it was Juice Newton's song. not hers and she sang it anyway. How many shows have you attended where you could talk to the talent and they respond back to you with kindness??

But then elder people say it's sad my generation will never see or feel what life really was like. How it was to live. Be young wild and free. But I really wish I could've felt the way life was. Living more free. No phones. No computers. School wasn't online. The government was more for the people by the people. And not for the government by the government like today. 40-60 cents for a gallon of gas. Seems pretty good to me. People saw you as your appearance. Not some online status that you're know as by people you don't even know. Being able to walk around and not care what people see you as. Because everyone was different. And themselves. Not trying to be someone else.

One contained the line "Look what you've done to my song!" (Yes, I read some of the letters). That one line summed up pages of love and grief. Glad to have found it on KZbin.

You were a nice bit of my childhood, my dad would play this song and leftover wine for me when I was a little kid. I'm now set to graduate in June. I just got one of your albums on vinyl the other week, I think I'll give it a listen. Thank you for all of the memories. -Dolpan

Melanie gave so much and many great songs over these 50 plus years. A time rich with memories. I pray that she has an even bigger audience filled with angelic voices! Your love and passion carries on!

A very original, almost naive & childish voice but it fit the songs perfectly. No airs and graces or posing. Melanie was the real deal. RIP sweet lady.

I was born in 77 but I like all Melanie songs! I have parents in their early 70s that raised me on AM radio and good vinyl. In pre school our teachers had a record player and we could bring in a record and play a few songs every day. There was mo town, Beatles and stones, but some different stuff as well. We played with wooden blocks, colored, painted, drew pictures, sat indian style and listened to stories, had nap time then played outside in the slides, mary go round, monkey bars, swings, and played lick ball. Our teachers were thin long haired women that wore bell bottoms and had ling hair. Those hippy chicks taught us a lot.

Dear Melanie, I can remember when this song was released in South Australia, I worked at Levi Strauss then as a young boy. When this came on the "wireless" everyone, all 200 people knew every word and mouthed it along with you singing. Thank You for making my day. Cookey, Australia.
