Singer Melanie, Who Performed at Woodstock and Had Hits Such as “Brand New Key,” Dies at 76

Singer Melanie, who performed at Woodstock in 1969 and had hits in the 1970s with “Brand New Key” and “Lay Down (Candles in the Rain),” died Tuesday. She was 76.
Her children — Leilah, Jeordie and Beau Jarred — shared the news in a Facebook post on Wednesday. The cause of death is unknown, though her reps mentioned an “illness” in their own statement.
“This is the hardest post for us to write, and there are so many things we want to say, first, and there’s no easy way except to say it… Mom passed, peacefully, out of this world and into the next on January, 23rd, 2024,” her children wrote.
They asked fans to light a candle at 10 p.m. Central time on Wednesday to remember their mom.
“She was one of the most talented, strong and passionate women of the era and every word she wrote, every note she sang reflected that,” they wrote. “Our world is much dimmer, the colors of a dreary, rainy Tennessee pale with her absence today, but we know that she is still here, smiling down on all of us, on all of you, from the stars.”
Melanie, whose full name was Melanie Safka, was recently working on a new record featuring cover songs. The album, titled Second Hand Smoke, would have been her 32nd album, said her label, Cleopatra.
Melanie was 22 when she performed at Woodstock. She told the AP in 2019 that she was nervous about performing before hundreds of thousands of people at the music festival, which also featured the likes of Joan Baez, Jimi Hendrix and the Grateful Dead. She said she waited hours to perform as her anxiety kept growing.
“The terror kept building in me,” she said. “The thought of me performing in front of all of those people and that huge stage — I was all by myself. Then it started to rain and I truly believed that everyone was going to get up and go home. It’s raining, I’m free, I’ll go back to life as it was. Maybe I will be an archaeologist; maybe I will join the Peace Corps. That’s when they said, ‘You’re next.’”
Born Feb. 3, 1947, in Astoria, New York, Melanie studied at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts while pursuing her singing career. She booked gigs at coffee houses and folk clubs in Greenwich Village. In 1967, she met her future manager, producer and husband, Peter Schekeryk.
She signed with Columbia Records and released two singles, “Beautiful People” and “Garden in the City,” but when Clive Davis declined to allow her to record an album, according to her reps, she left the label for Buddah Records, which released her debut LP. But it was Woodstock that gave her her big breakthrough.
“Lay Down” was her first U.S. hit, followed by “Peace Will Come,” “What Have They Done to My Song Ma,” “The Nickel Song” and a cover of the Rolling Stones’ “Ruby Tuesday.” In 1971, Billboard named her the year’s biggest-selling female artist in the U.S.
She went on to form her own label, Neighborhood Records, which was the the first female-owned independent label in rock history, according to her reps. “Brand New Key,” her first single for Neighborhood, topped charts around the world. The song was introduced to new audiences several years ago via an ad for HP printers.
Melanie became a spokesperson for UNICEF and continued recording albums regularly until the death of her husband in 2010. However, she frequently teamed with her children to perform live and to record and produce home concert specials for the Internet.
Her new album of covers includes a version of Morrissey’s “Ouija Board Ouija Board” and Nine Inch Nails’ “Hurt,” among others.

A message from Leilah, Jeordie and Beau Jarred
Dear Ones,
This is the hardest post for us to write, and there are so many things we want to say, first, and there’s no easy way except to say it… Mom passed, peacefully, out of this world and into the next on January, 23rd, 2024.
We are heartbroken, but want to thank each and every one of you for the affection you have for our Mother, and to tell you that she loved all of you so much! She was one of the most talented, strong and passionate women of the era and every word she wrote, every note she sang reflected that.
Our world is much dimmer, the colors of a dreary, rainy Tennessee pale with her absence today, but we know that she is still here, smiling down on all of us, on all of you, from the stars.
We ask tonight, Wednesday January 24th, at 10pm central time, each of you lights a candle in honor of Melanie. Raise, raise them high, high up again. Illuminate the darkness, and let us all be connected in remembrance of the extraordinary woman who was wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend to so very many people.
We are planning a Celebration of Life for Mom and it will be open to all of you who want to come and celebrate her. The details will be announced as soon as they are in place. We look forward to seeing you there.
At this time please allow us, her family, privacy as we grieve for her, remember her, and figure out how to navigate this crazy world without her.
Thank you all for your love – you meant so very much to her.
Love and Peace,
Leilah, Jeordie, and Beau Jarred

A friend of mine just posted Lay Down/Candles in the Rain within the hour. Post it many times in the past here at iHub myself. Sad, my age too.
Chiefs? I am still undecided if I should support you on that or not. 🫢🙄🤣

Tree, I am not a big country fan, but getting bigger, and I never heard of Jamey Johnson until I saw those songs. His " "In Color" named Song of the Year at the Academy of Country Music Awards " in 2009.

Burns, on the other hand, his double bogey on 17, might have led to his double b on 18, costing him a lot of money. Does that stick in his mind for a while?
Dunlap has a chance to be the next Tiger Woods? IMO, Yes if he keeps his head together
I can guess he gets some sponsor money, and even just that and he gets disqualified from college golf. Ah, but as I recall, all those college keggers, tough choice?🙃🙄
Interesting American Express final, First amateur in 33 years might win on the PGA tour.

If they could bring him back from the dead, he'd still be a good coach in this day. Who was the cheifs best Chief's best coach's?
That 15 year stretch was all because of Bud Grant. His downfall was over using the "prevent defense" when we had a modest lead in Q4.
Tree, I am still pissed at the Cheifs for beating the Vikings in Super Bowl 4. I will have to think about supporting you.🤔
Kool & The Gang - Celebration
You're An EXTREME Redneck When..
1. You let your 14-year-old daughter smoke at the dinner table in front of her kids.
2. The Blue Book value of your truck goes up and down depending on how much gas is in it.
3. You've been married three times and still have the same in-laws.
4. You think a woman who is out of your league bowls on a different night.
5. You wonder how service stations keep their rest-rooms so clean.
6. Someone in your family died right after saying, 'Hey, guys, watch this.'
7. You think Dom Perignon is a Mafia leader.
8. Your wife's hairdo was once ruined by a ceiling fan.
9. Your junior prom offered day care.
10. You think the last words of the Star-Spangled Banner are 'Gentlemen, start your engines. '
12. The Halloween pumpkin on your porch has more teeth than your spouse.
13. You have to go outside to get something from the fridge.
14. One of your kids was born on a pool table.
15. You need one more hole punched in your card to get a freebie at the House of Tattoos.
16. You can't get married to your sweetheart because there's a law against it.
17. You think loading the dishwasher means getting your wife drunk.
I am waiting for a sporty EV with flames painted on the sides, then I'll buy one.
The third picture is the beat, by far.

Bohemian Rhapsody - The Petersens (LIVE)
If you can't see the Jim Leman link, he is making money off the LIV/PGA bullchit
Jim Lehman, Tom Leman's brother. I met him today at my Lifetime Fitness and had a little 3-minute chat with him. He told me he was a golf lawyer. I asked him if he represented Patrick Reed, He just laughed and said no. He told me he won the amateur Trans Mississippi, but I see he got 2nd in 2007. Not bad though, he is about 65 now and a second in his mid 40's is not bad.

Trans Mississippi, look at the big name winners from 2013 to 2017.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans-Mississippi_Amateur
And BTW, in 1959 I was 12 and a caddy at Woodhill near Minneapolis and the Trans Mississippi that year. They made me a forecaddy, too young for a golfer. The match play final 2 were Jack Nicklaus and Deam Beman. Jacks' caddy was a friend of my older sister, He had me replace Jacks divots for 36 holes as they did not rope anything off. Jack was so intense. Our eyes met once or twice. Jack won, one up after 36. Dean 2nd, but Dean won it the next year.
My Minneapolis area just had the best Decembers and add in the first 5 days this month in my old phart life. No global warming BS, We had one of the coldest and snowiest Aprils and Mays of my life last spring.

24 million years
The colorful mountains were created over the course of 24 million years. Brightly colored layers of sandstone and minerals formed were crushed together under the earth and pushed to the surface as the tectonic plates shifted, creating the colorful patterns of rock strata.
