Melissa Manchester - Don't Cry Out Loud

[@INSIDELINE65]

Imagine if they sang with Heart and Soul like this today, the world would be in a better place.

[@marcussmith3934]

Happy 73rd Birthday Melissa Manchester!(Born February 15, 1951)😃🥳🎂🎉🎊🎈🎁🍾🥂🎀🌷🌹💐👍👏🙌

[@jvegazorro]

Extraordinary. Nowadays, nobody sings like this ...

[@richardcharney1559]

Yes you're right this is back when they made good music!

[@pmfmpls]

Oh- I've loved you for such a long time. 1974? 1975? Since my mid-teens. Thank you for everything.

[@edvictor5419]

I grew up in the 70s listening to Zepplin and Aerosmith. Im now admitting that i missed so much when it came to music. I remember this song. I now appreciate what a talent Melissa is. Wow this girl can sing. Pretty too!

[@dudewithaniphone]

That's really belting out a tune.

[@joeb6245]

An absolutely beautiful song sung by a beautiful and phenomenally talented singer. It’s one of those songs that completely captures the 70’s. I was 9 when this song came out. It still gives me chills.

[@dianaprince4011]

She can sang. This song brings me to tears.

[@richardcharney1559]

Yes I catch myself crying when I hear the song also that's back when they made good music! Good song.

[@Frostflame29]

Talent like that is extremely rare

[@richardcharney1559]

Yes you said the truth there that was back when they saying good music!

[@mimigutierrez948]

Love this beautiful song! What a beautiful voice!

[@ckrtom2]

So powerful and moving! She puts her whole heart and soul into it.

[@TWHISPERER]

This is the first that I have seen this video, I didn't realize how young she was at the time that she put out this song. She should of had more hit songs than she had, she had a good voice and was a nice looking gal too.

[@dang2226]

Whos here in 2023? One of my favorite songs when i was a kid❤!!!!!! Born in 74, heard it in my elementary school loved It❤❤❤ and just heard it again in Oct 14th, 2023😊 and it brought me back to those amazing days! She was such a GREAT singer!!❤❤❤

[@鍾瀚閣]

It's more and more hard to find a good talented singer and music like hers.

[@mybartmanful]

I could listen to this over and over. She is the best. Love you Mielissa!

[@falldownhard]

Best live version of this record I've seen to date. God she outclasses so many other singers - gives 110% of herself in EVERY detail - the phrasing, control, etc - but she also has warmth which in my opinion sets her apart from contemporaries she's often compared with. This makes her alot easier to listen to than Barbra Streisand or some others that I think are overrated (with no disrespect intended - not a dissing of her ability, just personal preference). Loved this so much.

[@tTheParakeet]

You can’t really tell from this version can you? lol

[@vivienllewellyn6802]

If you like this version you should listen to Elkie Brookes singing it 😊

[@sj460162]

Totally agree. I listened to Shirley Basseys version (who was offered this song first I believe) and to me this performance is far superior..and I adore Shirley Bassey.

[@execatty]

My 6th grade graduation song 1978..wtf happened to all the years

[@Chief-o5x]

Really?​@@vivienllewellyn6802

[@yankeehank1897]

She knocked it out of the park!

[@spongeworthyvideo]

A great clip...thanks for uploading it. I love that Melissa rarely lipped synced thru the years. Even tough songs like this one...she performed live. She is an amazing talent.

[@RegenaDPeAcEonly]

This is one of songs that made me a fan for life!

[@willingtoimagiine]

Gorgeous lady belting out an anthemic song!!!

[@scottfowler7680]

Just as powerful and meaningful as when I first heard it when I was 14

[@ballards02]

I never get tired listening to this classic song ❤️

[@dcol6918]

An outstanding performance...just love Melissa....and her voice.

[@JLKeener77]

Melissa is a fabulous singer. Beautiful phrasing and such a powerful voice. I don't know of any singers today who could match this kind of moving live performance.

[@CgvBruun]

Gaga certainly can. Have you seen her live Sound of Music medley?

[@JLKeener77]

@@CgvBruun Yes, I agree. Gaga is pretty damn good, too.

[@kenshiloh]

I think this is one of the great pop songs of all time. This song has tragic roots, as it is, metaphorically, about young 14 year old boy (Peter Allen) whose father committed suicide. His mother told him to 'put on a brave face.' Yet, it is so important in life not to be phony, but real. I have found real healing in Christ, Who died on a Cross so that I could see the restoration of all things in the next life; no tears allowed as they will be obsolete! Jesus Christ is the light of the world.

[@celticrose2]

Just beautiful 👍🏻💕🎶

[@MrRingo525]

one of my fave female singers along with Angela Bofill, they have powerful voices

[@abwdoc]

Absolutely incredible performance from one of the best vocalists ever. Every time I hear this, I tear up. No need for pitch correction here…just pure raw and trained talent. There haven’t been many female vocalists since Melissa that can come anywhere near her.

[@ritamaldonado9305]

Uplifting song. Beautiful

[@absisfabs873]

She, barry manilow and bette midler used to be together touring. Barry was the pianist for bette, melissa was bette's background singer.

[@sj460162]

Love her...love this song. And actually the best version of this ive heard!

[@vinniep3315]

Timeless perfection

HAPPY 66TH BIRTHDAY MELISSA MANCHESTER (FEBRUARY 15, 2017)

[@rebeccapienn829]

I remember that performance. Dick Clark's Live Wednesday. Excellent!

[@coryrizzo3944]

Amazing voice !!!

[@biegel88]

A timeless classic.

[@jimt.626]

She's got a beautiful voice. Still like that song she did from the Ice Castles movie

[@JanRay2020]

So love this song. Use to lovr to singing it at karaoke♥️

[@WarriorBoy]

As funny as this was on Schitt's Creek, I'm glad it introduced me to this song, never heard this one! She's a pretty amazing singer! Tip: the audio to this for some reason won't work on your phone. It did when I casted it to my TV.

[@eddiet2]

Melissa just does this song right!

[@MsBananasmel]

Fantastic !!!

[@kdelee7075]

The songs of feelings and delicacy has a kind of Melissa Manchester...1978 our titile song "Ice castles" a movie...through the eyes of love...'Don 't cry out loud surokttae...on the record' 'don' music video on the precious materials, t cry out loud ' listening to you. thank you ^^

[@ELIASyIBARRA]

Must've been cold on that stage. (Brrrrrrrr) Great performance by the way, great classic.

[@3rdFloorblog]

I noticed that too :)

[@swk_83]

She should’ve worn a bra, especially for tv but them was the times of free!

[@ELIASyIBARRA]

So true. @@swk_83

[@kimquinn7728]

Have you seen the trash performers deck themselves out in on stage today? Auto tuned, lip synced, fakery? This woman wrote and performed her own songs and her voice was pure gold.

[@ELIASyIBARRA]

Couldn't agree more @@kimquinn7728

[@enchantro]

Bravo!! Bravo!! Bravo!!!🥰

[@MrTRN80]

Fine ballad by her.

[@bravo3279]

When I hear this it reminds me of Whitney Houston singing Didn't we almost have it all .

[@javierprieto1060]

Melissa extraordinaria cantante, me fascina. Saludos desde México

[@rodrigolimacampos5894]

Caraca, que perfeição! Melhor ainda do que em estúdio.

[@bechawk3434]

She sang this so good, ya didn’t even need any harmonies

[@citrusmixer1313]

I'm not sure if this was intended to be a "serious" song or a campy, unintentionally funny song. For me it's the latter, and I love it, lolol.

[@JojoCrazyCat]

This is an inspiring song.

[@MatthewGill-nv4tb]

If you haven't seen the movie drop dead gorgeous you have absolutely no idea the genius level of joke this song is used for and its amazing

[@michaelpmcgrath]

Best horrible advice song ever! Cracks me up every time. Great voice.

[@elias01]

Great voice

[@fakerating]

Song written by Peter Allen and Carole Bayer Sager.

[@RegenaDPeAcEonly]

she is right up there with Joni & Barbra

[@richardcharney1559]

Joni Mitchell and Barbra Streisand you are very right!

[@jrmetmoi]

The 'Drop Dead Gorgeous' movie from back in the late 90s 😆😆😆

[@DavidMik-q4x]

I simply wonder who talked her into that HAIR back then???? Betcha even OLD DEMENTIA Boy wouldn't even SNIFF that???? NO gets me wrong, have always LOVED Melissa!!!!

[@adilsonmarcelino3691]

perfeito

[@lightsacco]

lol schitts creek skit ,hilarious !

[@berliner0]

Lovelyv

[@djdon60]

I am so low; this song(of which I've the original Arista 45-but, don't feel up to rifling boxes)sprang, to mind-at 3am. I came out, to the 'puter and, wow...there it was. I hadn't heard it in, oh, twenty years. No-not, going to "Happy Endings" but, she had a fabulous "B-side" to one, of her songs-going to try to remember its title then, find it. P.S., she's singing, live!

[@antoniomachado6920]

What happened to the sound? Nothing is understood. This song is so special, so beautiful. Could the channel solve this problem? Thank you very much.

[@massagesteve]

Is this weird or what...when I was around 12-14 years old (1980-1982) I would sleep with the radio on and I would wake up every night around 3-4am and this song would be playing.

[@richardcharney1559]

Well you're not weird I did the same thing I was about 15 years old when this song came out it's still a good song it'll always be one of my favorites!

[@Qermaq]

Wow, it's easy to forget how overblown everything got in the '70s.

[@marbananta]

LOL ... Remember the pants ...?

[@petertang2611]

If only family guy had enough money for this 😂

[@michaelcho9153]

anybody know where this performance is from and the year?

[@mikeblavk3521]

Very underrated singer. Amazing voice

[@DarcyConnell]

RIP peter allen

[@paulsantos914]

I prefer her version over Elkie Brooks any day

[@MsLoopyLoops]

I preferred Elkie's. Not so keen on this in comparison.

[@rayray88161]

​@MsLoopyLoops this is the definitive version....so there's that. No comparison.

Amazing voice. Tragic hair.

[@allanhernandez2508]

Oh, oh record copy rights lowered the the volume or indistinguishable!!

[@no_power]

Damm, when the sound engineer is even better than the singer.

[@denisesalles7248]

I think she may have been influenced by Bette Midler. Nice, open voice!

[@uptonking]

What is this from?

[@KenKhangNanyi]

He-man

[@massagesteve]

The American Music Awards would be a good guess. Dick Clark created the awards show and hosted it.

[@carlosrodriguezvera1916]

Is someone else that can't hear this video clear in the cellphone?

[@richardcharney1559]

Yes I think it's a live version!

[@dport9563]

Bonnie's cooking brought me here.

[@dmnspd]

Not a knock on Melissa, but I can’t help but think Whitney Houston would have knocked this out - Clive Davis had to of tried an arrangement with her...

[@DeeNice681]

Your not wrong, Dionne Warwick too!

[@ceecee8757]

@@DeeNice681 yes, @S Tress, but this was about 10 years before Whitney hit the scene. Of course, she'd kill it too.

What's up with the sound?? I can't hear a damn thing!
