Melissa Etheridge

How many Intimate Portraits of straight women feature interviews with Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise?

Dolly & Melissa "Come To My Window"

Melissa is a great singer& songwriter...but a vicious, mean, horrible Dyke if you get involved with her.

Anyone here has stories of AOL chat hookups in early to mid nineties, like 1991-1995? Was this music popular then?

I beg to differ.

R5 I don't think Melissa identifies with the 90s British diva club music of Black Box

C&C Music Factory, hon.

In 1993, you couldn't escape the song "Come to My Window". She had.a string of hits. Her music was easy to like; it was unpretentious, catch rock music.

R7 what's the difference, hon?

Everybody Everybody is Black Box, clueless wonder at R7

Best version of "Bring Me Some Water" ever with Joan Osborne

Thanks R2! I'd never seen that version before. Dolly is a National Treasure.

Everbody Dance Now is C+C Music Dactory, witless wonder.

OMG who gives a fuck about C+C Music Factory in 2021 R13

This thread is about the 1990s, you dolt.

R15 This thread is about Melissa Etheridge, but maybe you can find some other shut-in to binge watch Arsenio with

With Springsteen, Thunder Road. Really nice version.

[Quote] "Nowhere To Go" by Melissa Etheridge portrays American gay life in the 90s more than any other song

This is an opinion and it received a reaction. Blow it out your ass, r16.

R18 sure thing Dance Floor Diva

Back when you were eithr gay, lez or bi. None of this bullshit about gender identity vs sex and gender being mutable. We live in bullshit times thanks to the internet giving too much power to aspies etc. who want to rewrite reality

This was played nonstop at The Cuff in Seattle in the Spring of 1995. It's what I remember her for.

I love how Dolly turns Come to My Window R2 into a song that could be from her early days

I hope Dolly comes out.

She started out playing at the Executive Suite gay bar in Long Beach

Dyke music.

The only song I like by her is Similar Features from her debut album from 1988.

Music to eat pussy by. I stopped liking her after what she did to Tammy Lynn Michaels. Her weird behavior after her son's overdose didn't seem to phase any of her dykey followers.

Tammy outed Zac Efron. Not cool.

Podcast interview last week

Ugliest

R27, more info please

Musically, she just seems to be very much a one-trick pony.

Overly dramatic, pretentious mid-tempo Mellencamp-esque pop/rock ditties all sung in the same overwrought rasp. It was cool at first (I still love "Bring Me Some Water"), but it got old for me real quick.

What’s Up by The Four Non-Blondes is the American Pie of the ‘90s.

A lesbian singer has little chance of following the same route today since lesbian bars are as common as Blockbuster Video

An early indication in 1993 of Elvira's lesbianism in video at R1 at 33:44 with Melissa Etheridge and k.d. lang

Behind the Music from 2000 at the apex of lesbian chic

I’m not a fan of butch singers

R31:

The offspring who died wasn't Tammy Lynn's, was he?

Ryan Murphy should give Tammy Lynn another job. She was great in "Popular."

R37 prefers demure girly singers

She had the kids with Julie Cypher. I think they were together 10+ years. I remember an interview where Melissa said they broke up after Julie announced to her, "I don't think I'm gay after all." (Lesbians, stay away from bisexual women.)

I wanna smoke her signature weed
