She was so natural here... talking about the experience instead of selling herself. And Johnny was very kind and appreciative as well. So sad to think - in January 2024 - that she's gone. RIP, Melanie. 😥

The thing that impresses me no end is that Melanie sits center stage with nothing but a guitar and her voice and silences ever voice with the power of her performance. Any performer that sinks or swims, literally on their own, is humbling to me. Melanie may just as well be naked out there and she pulls it off every time in splendor. I wish we could do the old days over again. If even for just a little while. BTW... Johnny had a remarkable knack for reading his guests and helping them brighten up and relax a little. He was really a fantastic host. Ahhh....the good ol' days.😌 😢

Music had a meaning in the sixties and the seventies unlike today. Melanie is wonderful. She asked us to raise the candles high against the black sky after woodstock. And she wanted all of us to be beautiful people and for us to wear the beautiful people button to show common ground as human beings. And music today....? Lets be together....and raise the candles still higher as beautiful people.

Notice how quiet the audience was during her performance and how the set seemed so peaceful and relaxed. Those were simpler times. No need for flying logos, quick cuts, flashy special effects, or electronic noise to capture viewers with short attention spans. Instead they keep it simple to let one concentrate on the subject at hand, which provides a measure of depth and nuance that would otherwise go unnoticed and unappreciated. And Melanie was certainly worth it.
@boggy76657 жыл бұрын
It was expected for audiences to be quiet. Polite or wild applause, as appropriate, only when there was a break in the program. I think it was the 80s when it became usual to 'whoop' and 'whee' and applaud whenever one felt the urge. An early sign of the breakdown of society, and I'm only half kidding. They're extra-quiet here because of the two special ladies on stage. Melanie is positively captivating. The other woman is Sandy Duncan, also a sweetie.

The Auditorium in Chicago wouldn’t even turn off the House lights! Its become way worse since then.

She was the original hippie chick who I looked up to as a teenager and her beautiful smile, huge voice, and sweet personality were always an inspiration to me. Still today, I'm finding new videos and be so uplifted by them. She is truly a gifted songwriter too. So Pattie, you're a lucky lady and thanks so much for sharing this video!

Melanie isn't just "the voice of a generation;" she's the voice of all generations, especially those preferring love to war, sex to violence, intensity to blandness, reason to neurosis (now psychosis), art to routine, compassion to selfishness, music to gears' whirr, laughter to bellowing, purr to condemnation, and passion to repression; Melanie is what civilization is FOR, the making of " Beautiful People;" and I drastically hope civilization will one day soon actually understand or more importantly, feel, what really matters for life and liveliness. We're running out of time. Ohhhh How some of us would trade years to be at the Woodstock, Atlanta, or Isle Wight Festivals, rather than concerts charging $5 for a bottle of water and featuring robotic music. But at least Melanie still plays and plies her song, regardless of what the fanged philistines and hybristic hucksters tried to have done to it, MA, and will be a-coming this way soon. We need Melanie. Now as much as ever.

Even on Wikipedia. I went back to listen again. She appeared in '63. So she was around 12 years of age! Patti Noah, I see this is your channel and scrolling thru the comments a good friend of Melanie's! Do you or anybody else have any info about that appearance in '63? That is a surprise to me!
