Melissa Etheridge - Lucky
I've been a fan since her Yes I Am album, and when I heard Lucky for the first time I was very disappointed. I have to admit though... that now I think it is a WONDERFUL album! The lyrics are powerful as usual, and it has it's typical Melissa touch.

Favorites? Obviously, as a gay man my favorite is Tuesday Morning. This Moment, Mercy and Lucky are great too.

So... what do you think?

My least favorite is Your Little Secret... it lacks something.

2. If you are a "Melissa Fan" ........ "scarecrow"

It is a homemade video that someone created.. and it's simply amazing!

15. I have to say it
I'm not impressed. I think she branched out, but she's wasting that good voice on bad music. Maybe I'll like her next one.

20. on first listen I wasn't that impressed
maybe I'll like it more as I listen more.
I love her early stuff, up to YES I AM
and BREAKDOWN (which includes Scarecrow) absolutely wrecks me...
she knows how to rock. I've seen her live several times and it's great.

22. Did you hear about the E-Bay auction - "Lunch With Melissa E"?
Well, the Dad of one of my on-line buddies got it for her. She couldn't say enough about how nice & down to earth M.E. really is.
