Ok I've seen the Time-Life 70s thing on tv, with Greg Brady wearing the same shirt he did when he was with the "bunch". Anyway when this song comes up, the credits only say a first name, Melanie. Melanie who? She kinda looks all spaced out, but has a nice voice.

Her full name is Melanie Safka, but she was known simply as "Melanie" And "Brand New Key" is her claim to fame.

Brand New Key by Melanie, she only used her first name. Her first hit Lay Down (candles in the Rain) was so much better of a song. I liked it anyway. Check it out on Limewire. That took me back to high school. Thanks for the memory flash!

It's just "Melanie" like it's just "Cher" or "Madonna." She was born Melanie Safka, but her stage name was just Melanie.
Here's a link to a brief biography of her, if you're interested: http://launch.yahoo.com/ar-257812-bio--Melanie

Melanie.....nothing more. That's her stage name and how she was billed on the Top 40 charts. For all we know, she's probably a retired bank employee, grandmother, living in Colorado with her retired engineer husband. Her life as a 60's one hit wonder is galaxies far, far away in her memories.....for all we know.

That is the name she went by, no last name. Just like Madonna.
