| Dedication to my Subscribers and Friends I luv you guys soooo much) 06:13"Killing Me Softly" Roberta Flack. I have always loved this song....every since I went to the South as a little kid for the summer. While in the summer school...I learned the hard way that more...the South is unlike the North. The teacher pulled out a wooden paddle an proceeded to tear my rear end up ( it should be noted that I have always been...and continue to be a generally nice guy. Whatever grounds there were that made the teacher see to it that I have total pain on my tush was to say the least...a slight misunderstanding. As I continued to count the number of "swats" being delivered, "Killing Me Softly" was being played on the little classroom radio. Needless to say, the song strikes a unique chord with me...and has ever since. Lol. Much love to yu all....and enjoy!

| quotHappyquot an original composition by MelloMel featuring Missy) 05:02Got Happy? It is an amazing thing to be happy. But how do you know if your happiness is true? True happiness , as with love, is realized once you can let go of the thing that is the source of your more...hapiness. If the object of your happiness returns to you, you can experience true joy in knowing that it was meant for you to have this thing that brought about happiness. For two days...I was without my music as my equipment (which is used to process ) was acting up. I was out of my regular sort (didn't know how to act). In that short time...after praying for a miracle (to put it lightly), I began to migrate towards other activities (which was not easy at all). But when I chose to let the music go free for that time...it miraculously came back to me (in the way of my equipment being healed....THANK GOD!!! ;) Hey...I just know that my stuff was working after almost being brought to tears about not having it to produce music. I then realized how "happy" I was to be back in the flow, back in my element, back to doing the thing that brings me passion ~ doing my music. This song is actually what came to my mind during this time. It was intended to be a "happy" song, but for you, let it bring you to happy times in your life (both in times past, as well as the happy times to come). Let this song serve as a reminder that being happy is a choice...a choice that needs to be chosen regardless of if you are dealing with things either within, or beyond your control. Being happy is within your control; choose it freely and wait for it to freely come back to you. It can become the strength you never knew you had....this is another show! We shall talk later! Take care and enjoy my friends. Mel :) less Tags: mellomel Category: Music Views: 305 Comments: 27 Added: Aug 9, 08 By: MelloMel  | |

| Harmonica Killing Me Softly with His Song Flack 01:43( visit http://www.12freemusic.com for more... ) Please comment on my videos. Killing Me Softly with His Song played on chromatic harmonica. "Killing Me Softly with His Song" is a 1971 song composed more...by Charles Fox and Norman Gimbel, which has become a pop standard. The song was inspired by a poem by Lori Lieberman, "Killing Me Softly with His Blues", which she wrote after seeing a then-unknown Don McLean perform the song Empty Chairs live.
Song and cover versions
Lieberman was the first to record Fox and Gimbel's song, in 1971, but it became a bigger hit when covered by Roberta Flack in 1973, reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100 for 4 weeks. It was replaced by "Love Train" by the The O'Jays. "Killing Me Softly" returned to the top of the U.S. charts replacing "Love Train".
R&B artist Al B. Sure was the next to cover the song in 1988 on his debut album In Effect Mode... and experienced some success with it. He was voted the top new Male R&B solo artist in 1989. Hip-hop group The Fugees covered the song in 1996, with Lauryn Hill singing the lead vocals. Their version reached number two on the U.S. airplay chart, and had similar success in the U.K., reaching number one and selling over a million copies. Propelled by the success of the Fugees track, the version by Flack was remixed in 1996 and topped the Hot Dance Club Play chart.
Other major artists to cover the song include Engelbert Humperdinck, Frank Sinatra, Tori Amos, Eva Cassidy, Perry Como, Aretha Franklin, Anne Murray, Luther Vandross, Toni Braxton, Alicia Keys, Jaco Pastorius The Youngblood Brass Band and Shirley Bassey.
The song was prominently featured in the 2002 film About a Boy in which the boy of the title, Marcus, is ridiculed by classmates for singing the song, a favourite of his mother's, at his school talent show because of its feminine associations and romantic, emotional lyrics. less Tags: harmonica killing softly song flack fugees Category: Music Views: 189 Comments: 0 Added: Feb 5, 07 By: alliax  | |

| quotHorse Happyquot an original tune by MelloMel amp friends 06:02(Pictures courtesy of wifey Lyn). Missy was scheduled to attend a friends birthday party, which was on a work day for me...yeah..great! So when I came home that evening, I wanted to see the pictures Lynn more...had taken. Needless to say...I was amazed; I had no idea that this little kid's party had taken place at a horse ranch...complete with horse rides! So many thoughts began to race through my head: 1) any parent would want to be in attendance for their child's first anything...including horse riding....so imagine the feeling I had of being left behind and missing all that fun. 2) Just by looking at the pictures...I realized that horses are special creations. Correct me if I am wrong, but I think they are the biggest animal that kids can get the closest to i.e., right on the horses back. It's no question in my mind that a shy, little kid can gain the greatest confidence knowing that he, or she can ride on the back of such a strong, tall and beautiful friend (horse). This song was inspired at first by the sadness I had once I 'd realized what an awesome time I had missed. But as the music builds, it is inspired by the strong beauty posed by all horses (and other animals in general). I know first hand that Missy left her horse with so much confidence and happiness...it's hard for me to imagine that these beautiful creatures can give so much to a young person's self esteem, but receive mistreatment and abuse in return. I dedicate this song to the wonderful horses that made my daughter happy that day...as well to the people like Diane (Galaxy) who work hard to protect them. To see them as the strong creatures they are...but to get close to them as friends is a totally awesome feeling. Thus the term..."Horse~Happy." less Tags: mellomel horses animals Category: Music Views: 50 Comments: 9 Added: Aug 26, 08 By: MelloMel  | |
