Leftover Wine

Melanie Anne Safka-Schekeryk (born February 3, 1947) is an American singer-songwriter. Known professionally as simply Melanie, she is best known for her hits “Brand New Key”, “Ruby Tuesday”, “What Have They Done To My Song Ma” and “Lay Down (Candles in the Rain)”.

Her debut album received rave reviews from Billboard which heralded her voice as “… wise beyond her years. Her non-conformist approach to the selections on this LP make her a new talent to be reckoned with.” She also performed at the Woodstock Festival in 1969 and the inspiration for her signature song, “Lay Down (Candles in the Rain)”, apparently arose from the Woodstock audience lighting candles during her set (although most of the “candles” were actually matches or lighters).

I suppose if you’re listening to this album, you could drink some wine, perhaps a nice light red on your patio. But, if you can’t finish the bottle yourself, you don’t have to dump it. Just check out some simple ways to use that last glass here!
