The Official KZread account of Melissa Manchester.
Singer-songwriter Melissa Manchester’s career is remarkable not only for its longevity and accomplishments, but for its versatility. Following her stint as a founding member of Bette Midler’s Harlettes, Manchester’s tremendously successful solo career brought her critical and commercial acclaim. She has recorded twentyone albums across her career, releasing her most recent album, The Fellas.
I’ve always wanted to to pay tribute to some of the equally great male singers - Frank, Tony, Nat, Johnny and several others. So, here it is - at long last - through a gift made possible by Dean Bob Slack of Citrus College and their fantastic Blue Note Orchestra. With The Fellas, Melissa celebrates not only 40 years as a GRAMMY-winning performer and songwriter, but a renewed independence and vitality. The album features special guest Barry Manilow.

I believe he initially wanted her for the original in the 70s. However, she wasn't available, so he went with Stevie Nicks. Hellava second choice....
Love the remake in this I really wish that she would have kept the politics out of it also very disappointed to find out she was a Biden supporter
And today we know, because of different leaks of panic papers or the hammer and dance papers.... it was all a big sham!
In America we do not live in a democracy, we live in a constitutional republic. There is a distinct difference, and words matter in real life just as they do in song.
Midnight Blue is just one of about 5 beautiful songs Melissa Manchester . This song takes me back to the days at our summer retreat v when I was a kid and we just had radio and this was a hit in those Summer days of the mid to Late 70s . Beautiful memories of my parents too !! Miss you mom and dad 😢❤😊
Thank you, Melissa
Dios te bendiga grandemente Melissa Manchester.🙏❤️❤️❤️
Yeah I’ve taken a stand and it is based on reality. But people don’t want to hear the truth ( at least most don’t) that way they can rationalize away their responsibility and accountability in life and blame someone else. If your opinion is not based on facts and if you do your homework and study to find out what the historical facts are and they don’t match up to the propaganda being shoved down your throat 24/7 and or whatever so and so says is wrong tell them the truth. You can never go wrong with that.
The music of my life, now 65.
Ditto in every respect!
Melissa is still.an incredible singer!
Barry and Melissa sing good together.
Melissa Manchester and Barry Manilow what a combo still love them after all these years. ❤
The best female voice ever
Possibly the greatest love ballad ever produced. Melissa's full and rich voice delivers the emotional intensity of the words written by Carol Bayer Sager. This amazing gem is played at weddings and conversely when a spouse is on the verge of losing their spouse to passing. These powerful lyrics and dynamic delivery make this song perfect. She attacks the bridge of the song like a true professional and unloads the emotional intensity of the song. This 2022 remake is nothing short of amazing. I vividly remember seeing Melissa on stage at the Universal Amphitheater in Los Angeles in the 1980s, what a concert that was. I have been a fan of hers from the beginning, thank you Melissa for all of those amazing songs.
I don't know how to Take a Stand against The Horrible Senior Community Facility I Live In. I simply Don't Have Enough Money to Move to a Much Better Facility. No Living Situation is Perfect. However There is Such a Thing as "Better Than"😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨
Midnight Blue brings back old memories 🤗🤗
After all these years, she still a beautiful woman.
I LIKE... NO ONE CAN LOVE YOU MORE THAN ME.... INSTRUMENTAL VERSION THANKS MELISSA💚🎼🤗
I'm in love with Melissa and her music. Her songs will live through the ages.
Disappointing to see Melissa get in the gutter with that sellout.
Not the original
Love her...beautiful, but we SHOULD cry out loud, and release the feelings, not keep them.
I am amazed that being grown up and listening to Melissa sing her songs is even better than growing up listening to them!
The piano at the beginning was enough to make me tear up. In part from remembering the original, but mostly in anticipation of hearing this new version. I just listened to 4 of her new recordings and she has maintained the beauty of her voice and somehow has added even more meaning and relatabiliy.to her songs. I am grateful that her duet with Dolly came up in my recommendations.
Wow, what a performance! I was researching the song itself, written in 1934. I saw that it had so many performances, so I wondered who was the most recent, and Melissa Manchester is the last one. I love the videography and the choreography. Great rendition of this classic, thank you
I can answer yes to all your questions. I have always "called it like I see it". I know I'm not very popular for that reason, but I've always done things my own way.
For Jim...💔💔💔
Only recently became a fan, through Dolly, but I am hooked! This may be the most touching video I’ve ever seen. Beautiful song. Beautiful family. Thank you for sharing, Melissa. ❤
Boy she must regret supporting that freak Biden in hindsight. I love you Melissa sorry you had to find out the hard way. I feel bad for US citizens having this horrid president.
Oh I looooove this!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
My favorite...she's so totally underrated!!💙
I remembered this song as a teenager
Love them both
I love this
I grew up on such songs
I’ve taken a stand two times with family members that I disagree with. They both have told lies about me. I’ve reached the point where I don’t care what people say about me. That’s a good feeling!
This song has held my soul since the age of 13 years. At 63, it still touches my heart and brings tears to my eyes! Thank you Ms Manchester always bringing it!
Beautiful. They sound so good together.❤
One of my favorite songs from my 80's college years. Love the video for today!
Rather disappointing to see politics brought into the equation. Especially considering the song has absolutely nothing to do w/ politics. This is really baffling. 🤦♀️
What a voice. Like pure honey .♥ ❣ ♥
Go Melissa! You are FABULOUS. I love the duet with our American Icon, Dolly. Go girl!
It is sooo good to be hearing from you after all these years! You look and sound GREAT!🎉❤
Still one of my favorite songs and Melissa is just gorgeous!
So sweet❤
Love them both
Perfection! 🌟🌟
In a bomb shelter in Ukraine listening
Must not be so nice..but I've looked for it many times but this has been my favorite one..
i hope this song helps many people feel like they belong somewhere your music has taught me much about the many sides of love i'm forever grateful I'm hoping you redo 'thru the eyes of grace' love you
Melissa I listen to you almost daily, I've loved you for almost 40 years!! Beautiful human and amazing artist ❤❤
