Back in the day, I thought "Brand New Key" was one of the best written, most clever porno songs there ever was. Still do, too. What a hoot! It still makes me smile. And her voice is perfect for that ditty.

I agree on this, Jim. "Loopy" works in this case!
Wow! She turned 60 this past Feb 13th, too...
Gulp.

Still looks like her, just a bit heavier. I ain't saying nothin' though. Those that have met me know what I mean.

Here's an article from 1998. I never heard of it. Don't know if it's still around.

I always liked her voice myself. Hearing "Candles In The Rain" and "Look What They Done To My Song Ma" brought back some nice memories. Her voice and those songs are a lot better than some of the ****** singers and material that is passed off today as "music". And yes Melanie was hot back then! She could have had her key and mine too if I had been old enough!

Minni had an incredible rise out of the Rotary Connection before death took her way too soon.

Thanks Jdog, I knew I had read it in the paper. I lived in Clearwater for 5 years and I thought it was north of there.
