A message from Melissa to the HA forum

[S_Parc]

Hello all. as a result of Mel, feeling a bit miffed being compared to Helen Hunt, she wants to put out a different image ...

This is how she wants to be seen, a more mature version of Boston area's rock singer, Kay Hanley, from the band, 'Letters to Cleo'.

Ok, she looks a bit like Kay but I'll insist that she's somewhere between Kay, Helen Hunt, and Melissa Etheridge. Really, no one looks exactly like some else.

So THIS is the woman who did Team Rose's theme in Sonic Heroes...

I believe so, but not with the Boston band, 'Letters to Cleo'. She's got a recognizable squeaky voice and is not very impressive, unlike let's say Shirley Manson from Garbage, who's got some deep & intense vocals. Unfortunately, Shirley doesn't look like the girl next door, as Kay, but more like a roving serial killer/whack job.

WGTOW. That's a new one. Maybe it'll catch on.

I didn't think you eveer heard of that game. Your post was the first time a face has been put to the voice of that song.

It's the other way around, ppl in Boston talk about Kay but then, after 'Letters to Cleo', she went onto other projects. Since I haven't been that interested in Boston artists for much of the past decade, I'm not sure of where she's at these days.

This is the song in question from Kay Hanley.

Yeah, I'd heard it before.

Her voice is kinda weak, not much range, no power, and lacks maturity.
