Music reviews of Yes I Am

Music Review: Melissa sings every song like it's her last.
Rating: 4 Stars

Melissa sings every song like it's her last. Some would argue that that's not necessarily a good thing, but it makes for some pretty powerful music...especially on the hits "I'm The Only One" and "Come To My Window". Other songs that pack a lot of emotional wallop is the slow-building "Silent Legacy" and the Springsteen like "Talking To My Angel"

This CD also has a stellar band with Waddy Wachtel on guitar, Scott Thurston on keys, Pino Palladino playing bass on four tracks and Ian McLagen laying down some organ on "I Will Never Be The Same".

Description of Yes I Am

Yes I Am is the album that catapulted Melissa Etheridge into superstardom. The 1993 collection's mercilessly driven, bluesy songs--nearly all dripping with sensual lyrics and rousing rhythms--made it the ideal breeding ground for a couple of career-enhancing music videos. The eerily possessive rock ballad "Come to My Window" hit the tube first with a bizarre twofold portrait of Etheridge and her guitar and actress Juliette Lewis having a nervous breakdown. This single brought the album into the public consciousness and was quickly followed by the similarly obsessive, slow-groovin' "I'm the Only One" and the co-dependence-battling "If I Wanted To." But the album's real strength is in the hidden gems untouched by MTV programmers. The slow-building "Silent Legacy," the undulating blues scream "Yes I Am," and the playful, acoustic "Ruins" are what make this album a whole. --Sally Weinbach
