Melissa Etheridge - Fearless Love

[@KyoSohma2211]

I came out to my family today and my Mom posted this on my Facebook saying "I need never run away from my fearless love." We're both Melissa Etheridge fans, but I'd never heard this one and now I'm in tears.

[@traekas7228]

KyoSohma2211, I know its been 8 years since you came out to your Mom. But. Just,...Welcome! All I wanted to say,...Welcome.

[@peteford2434]

For all those out there hoping for love, it will come when you least expect it. You just may find it outside of the regular types you are interested in. Try not to repeat the same types of person. Give the quiet one some time and they may be like an entire library of knowledge and endless intrigue. Love will come for you. Love is for everyone. Trust that.

[@tomasfourhorns]

This woman gives me so much strength with her music. All the anger and hate I have for the world, it echoes in her songs, and turns that hate into strength.

[@Ryan_Gutz]

this song is all about the things that make melissa etherage so strong. awesome

[@broadcasttttable]

To me, this is the perfect rock n' roll song, and ME's anthem. The lyric, summing up her life, the vulnerability, the balls-to-the-wall delivery, the guts to DEMAND what you deserve, and not wimp out for "anything less." If it's not her show-closer, it should be.

[@Ahmed-fm2iq]

When I woke up I was seventeen You kissed my lips in a bad bad dream Showed me things aren't what they appear to be Called me angel and set me free, You gave me life in the cold cold dark But you ran away in the morning's spark Made me think that reality Oh is not where I want to be but I am what I am and I am what I am afraid of Oh what am I afraid of I need a fearless love Don't need to fear the end Oh if you can't hold me now You will never hold me again I want to live my life Pursuing all my happiness I want a fearless love I won't settle for anything less I've walked my path had worlds collide I lost my way and I fooled my pride This lover's ache wouldn't feel so strange If I could only change But I am what I am I am what I am afraid of So what am I afraid of I need a fearless love Don't need to fear the end oh if you can't hold me now You will never hold me again I want to live my life Pursuing all my happiness I want a fearless love I won't settle for anything less Now I'm not here to lay the blame I understand when you hold a flame Heads will shake, heads will turn And sometimes you just get burned I want a fearless love I need a fearless love I want a fearless love Don't need to fear the end Oh if you can't hold me now You will never hold me again I want to live my life Pursuing all my happiness I want a fearless love I won't settle for anything, anything less I need a fearless love I won't settle for anything less Oh, I want a fearless love I won't settle for anything less Somalia🇸🇴 2-10-2022

[@MIORIGAMI]

She sings with soooo much passion...anyone can have talent...but only God gives that kind of passion.....live on in passion, Melissa....u have been heard, I'm sure!

[@JJ-iu8tg]

THEA QUEEN!!!!!

[@victoriadiaz5432]

I still love this song after these years! That women gives her soul, and it's so refreshing to in music now a days.Melissa Etheridge I'm a permanent fan.

[@yokoshemp]

How do you thank a woman you have never met but many life livable for so many years. Not easy being a freak... and not a choice one makes. I got on this train when Yes I Am came out. Almost like a single star in a black sky... way out there beyond reach yet showing that there is something out there. Nobody has ever made me cry so often and smile so much. Peace where every you are...

[@MrPJ296]

I'm a straght guy, who's been a fan of Melissa's for yers. Not because of her sexuality, but because she's a great singer who writes great songs. I'd love to see her live, if she ever comes to Manchester UK!? Please! Please! Come to and do a concert in Manchester!

[@JessGrtz]

Melissa E. ...Best Songwriter ever!

[@paulwilliams4347]

+Jessica Grätz without a doubt. best live performer ever as well.

[@StallionFernando]

subjective

[@ladyt780]

I admire her ability to encourage people to not only love themselves, but love one another...for who & what we are. Be you, go after what you want & give it your all & if you're not ready, that's ok, just love & accept the ones that are. Sometimes we fall, get up. And then ask yourself what the heck was that? 'Cause if you don't, life will knock you down again! Thanks Melissa for keeping it real with the best music and guitar pickin' ever!!! Can't wait to see you in Edmonton!

[@6843450]

Why was this not a top ten song in the radio. Love this song Melissa you have helped me through a lot of shit in my life Thank you be well.

[@peterdaniel66]

as a 44 year old man, Mellissa, your songs have become a permanent part of my heart.. thank you so much for being you.. (pssst.. when do we see a duo with Bruce... I could die happy then..)

[@poisonpassion1968]

My Daughter came out when she was in high school and is 21 now and living with her girlfriend of two years and my daughter has also joined the navy.So I am a very proud mother and i'm so happy for her....love you Kat

[@nickwhoolery7224]

Great job mum

[@auntboobla]

Cat raven it’s awesome that you excepted it cuz my family hates me cuz I’m a lesbian

[@tabathagraham7337]

As a veterans wife thank u for ur daughters service

[@mayahiresova8544]

[@jamesgrey4502]

Hi Cat...How are you today?

[@blurose7]

The song that reminds me to be who I am, not who they want me to be. Melissa's music tells the story of my life. Her lyrics are magical; they can lift me up or feel my pain.

[@scarlthesnarl5581]

See, when I was younger I didn't really know why I liked this song so much. I was super in the closet you see and had no clue. Years down the road now, this song crosses my path again as I'm preparing to ask my girlfriend to marry me and right now I'm having a big ole "Oh" moment.

[@shlvbj]

I sat at edge of seat listening to little clips till CD came out. I have been rocking it hard and LOVING it.

[@seagate08]

Melissa's voice is so amazing and one of a kind.

[@stephaniemichelledavis1617]

NEVER, EVER GET TIRED OF THIS SONG OR MELISSA!!!! EXCELLENT SONG WRITER AND KILLER PERFORMER!!!!!!!!

[@a31471]

Love it.. :) "I understand when you hold a flame heads will shake heads will turn and sometimes you just get burned."

[@Landon_Matthew]

"I won't settle for anything less" is the quote I go by when trying to achieve my dreams.

[@alfonzoloyagonzalez]

I love her voice and style. ✌

[@alcjcc08]

Melissa ROCKS!!! "MOST" people these days don't know good music.. I'm the only one who'll walk across the fire for you!! lalalala lalalala

[@munibmir1374]

I really love this song. Melissa Etheridge has really done her best. I also thoroughly enjoyed seeing Ms. Willa Holland (Thea Queen in TV show Arrow). Both of these women are really extremely beautiful and talented. My best wishes to both Ms. Melissa Etheridge & Ms. Willa Holland.

[@davisdynasty83]

this song bring me back to my Bally's Gym days I loved when it would came on it just pierces your soul and takes you elsewhere!

[@stevvenjb61]

The video suggests it is about a teen running away from an abusive dad. Regardless of Melissa's sexual preference she is in the top 3 female rockers, if not the top female rocker since she started showing the world her talent as a musician, songwriter, and a positive influence she is to all in life! I have seen many of her shows and not even many bands or male rockers can match her intensity and passion.

[@dwalex97209]

Now this is the Melissa Etheridge I fell in love with. Bold, and fresh. Welcome back!

[@bellerose1991]

Life can be hard, but, its harder for some people. People who are different and people who cant except themselves. I've been there, and I live by this song!! Its amazing and thats all I can say.

[@maggielamar6638]

Melissa is great.... Fearless Love...... Feel this LOVE, Not to FEEL the END. I am what I am...

[@dierk43]

Wow... I am in awe of her work. It's like she takes the emotions, right out of my heart! Beautiful... New Favorite! I can't wait to hear the rest of the album!

[@debfan74]

It just seems Melissa gets better and better with each album!! so far this song is playing like mad on our local radio station WLBC 104.1 here in Muncie Indiana!! I also heard it was pretty high on Ryan Seacrest's count down!! WTG Melissa and welcome back! Can not wait for the new album!

[@kman756]

I love her voice- her singing is so powerful and passionate, and she's so energetic in her performance, and the messages in her songs are clear without being in your face or blatant. I really need to pick up a couple of her albums sometime.

[@patriciaroberts100]

Love has to be fearless to survive.

[@MollyPrewittWeasley]

She's still got it! So happy she's got a new album.

[@TheNeedleMistress]

The Melissa we all know and love!

[@valleygirlknits]

All these years later and I still love her voice. She's incredible! :-)

[@Becky_Davis]

I wish I could hear her music on the radio here. You guys are lucky to hear such a fabulous artist.

[@dolitsa]

same here...im a straight girl and i have been fan of her for many years...i find her great as an artist and as a person and i dont care for her sexuality. i came to see her in London once...but it was part of a festival and wasnt enough.i wanna see her in a complete show. wish she d come to Greece...

[@DAMNitsvivian]

holy crap. thank you sytycd for introducing me to incredible songs like this.

[@debilyn526]

Melissa's back, strong with song...love her and her music!!!

[@MusicMixVzla]

Hermosa

[@lisasnyder1433]

Years after I finally stopped looking for this, mostly convinced such a thing was too rare for me to find in the limited sampling of humanity to which I have access, I found this song. Thank you. Even as content as I am with "just friends", this song still speaks to me, of lost loves and why they were lost. I still believe it's too rare to be found, but I also still wish I could have found it, somewhere, with someone. I couldn't have been the only one in the world....

[@BassPlayerSusan]

She can still rock after all these years.

[@quamanethomas221]

I worked at the home depot from 2013-2017 doing overnight shifts. Whenever this song was come on the overhead I got hyped. Dope song

[@SwtPoison7]

Amazing..Beautiful as always....Chills everywhere....

[@tomh5961]

this video was really real for me. she gets it

[@oktappasvartvatn3946]

This song makes me feel passionate. I just want to sing it sometimes.

[@sfrro8]

i have been searching for this song for weeks now!

[@robenwilliams451]

having good music is a major high of life

[@fionacampbell]

I have always loved Melissa, since way back .... god how long ago was that... Brave and Crazy was just coming out.... (still my favorite "album" of hers) This song is no less fabulous. Such soulful passion. Sing out sister! Help us all to stand up straighter and speak out more loudly! Over 20 years of chills, M.E., and it just keeps getting better!

[@WickedxDan]

And She's Back with A NEW HIT SINGLE! xD I LOVE this song!

[@Elipequedo]

Absolutely love Melissa Etheridge's music especially this song!!! It is so passionate and uplifting.

[@ikkiso]

Melissa sings with such passion and love, she can make you feel anything can happen ..even real love

[@Danteniusgirl]

She is back!!! With the rocking look we love!!!

[@hjbdude]

have you in my heart until my last breath dear Melissa!

[@judenmike2]

You have chills running up and down my spine...fealess love is something we all want, need, desire, deserve!

[@anataria]

I don't think it has a negative meaning. I mean... probably she's not running away from her family and leaving everything to others. But she 'just' needs time to be 'free' from those problems - you can't deal with it, still we have other things to do, to creative and go on with 'your' life (not other's business)... finally she walks into the sunlight - go on with her life fearlessly. Well, that's my interpretation :) And this song ROCKS! She's another legendary classic!

[@daisybebe1]

love love love it!! So glad she has released a new album...been a fan since i was 19 and my sis gave me her tape! Chrome plated heart, somebody bring me some water etc ...this is reminicent of her older stuff i love it!!!

[@hoprabbitbunny]

Great Fender Rocker! Missy is Passionate!!

[@blurose7]

The song that reminds me to be who I am, not who they want me to be.
