Melanie - "Lay Down (Candles In The Rain)"

When Melanie took the Woodstock stage, she had never performed in front of more than 500 people. During her 11 to 11:30 p.m. set, she performed seven songs, including “Beautiful People,” which would appear on her second album.

Although Melanie was unknown at the time, the audience was enchanted and began to light candles, matches and lighters, which they held aloft as she performed

The shimmering lights deeply impacted Melanie. When she returned home, she wrote about the sight and her feelings of camaraderie and joy when she was at the festival. “(Lay Down) Candles in the Rain” would become one of the defining anthems of the Woodstock generation.
