Melissa Etheridge Artist Snapshot:

Melissa Etheridge made waves in 1988 as one of the few female rockers on the scene; in 1993, she made headlines by coming out as a lesbian. Etheridge's confessional lyrics and raspy voice earned her comparisons to Springsteen and Janis Joplin; she broke through to a pop audience with 1994's YES I AM, featuring the melodic pop of "Come To My Window" and the anthemic rock of "I'm the Only One," each of which spent over a half a year on Billboard's pop charts. In 2000, she revealed that her two children (with her then-partner Julie Cypher) had been fathered with sperm donated by rock legend David Crosby.

Review

Entertainment Weekly (9/24/93, p.93) - "...[Etheridge's] music has an intimacy not often found in the boys' club of mainstream rock. There's also a darkness that's very appealing, as Etheridge hurls her haunted rasp of a voice through songs of desperate love..." - Rating: B

Title Note

Personnel: Melissa Etheridge (vocals, acoustic & electric guitars); Waddy Wachtel (electric guitar); James Fearnley (accordion); Ian McLagen (organ); Scott Thurston (keyboards); Pino Palladino, Kevin McCormick, David Sutton (bass); Mauricio Fritz Lewak (drums, percussion).

Recorded at A&M Studios, Los Angeles, California.

"Come To My Window" won the 1995 Grammy Award for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance. "Come To My Window" and "I'm The Only One" were both nominated for Best Rock Song.

On her fourth album, Melissa Etheridge continues to write songs with a strong rock base and no sign of giving in to any kinds of trends. With the one-two punch of "I'm The Only One" and "Come To My Window," Etheridge manages to break through to bigger success on her own terms. YES I AM continues with tales of love within the lives of ordinary people while still managing to touch on a few different themes.

"All American Girl" mentions AIDS, while "Talking To My Angel" is about growing up alienated in a small town. An added bonus is the inclusion of "I Will Never Be The Same," a previously unreleased track which was one of a few Etheridge songs featured in the movie WELCOME HOME ROXIE CARMICHAEL.
