RIP Melanie Safka

@larryi 

I certainly got the metaphor, I just thought that it was stupid.

My first musical crush in my teen years. RIP, Melanie, thanks for your contributions and memories!

I was surprised when I read this this  morning as she really wasn’t that old.

 Thank you for the music you left me with.

Cheers @tomic601

I saw her at a small concert with about 100 in attendance about 10 years ago. It was an intimate and stoned (her not me) affair but only got going at the end, after she got past the novelty tracks.

When she does the serious stuff, she really excels in raw emotion.
