[AyUta]

Yeah, I was depressed when I heard about this in the melody thread Although I wish her the very best of luck in pursuing her second dream. After all, she accomplished the first She can do it!

Umm, no offense to melody. but lol @ all these ~outraged fans~. I seriously had no idea anyone even liked her. God bless her tho, she's from my city so I gotta represent that *****.

You can start by not calling her (or artists you like) ***** (even if it's in the good way), it's not respectful ddd =\.

I wish she would at least release a good-bye single or something but oh well...

i saw this coming a long way off.


but still....im gonna miss her a lot : (

[Amrai-chan]

Aw! I am going to miss her, but if that's what she wants to do I wish her the best.

But why schedule her website to close on January 12th!?

That's my birthday. ;_;

Well... at least she'll be around in fashion. Something to look forward to.

[BoBo]

she was realy good especially with m-flo STUCK IN YOUR LOVE... la la la... that makes me sad...

[Melon Panda]

That's the music industry. Some artists (Ayumi Hamasaki, Utada Hikaru, etc.) make it, and some don't. While I liked some of melody.'s songs (see you... in particular), she never quite had that special something that would make her a favorite artist of mine. At least I can always listen to her compilation album for old times' sake.

[AyUta]

To me, it seems like that last best album was a farewell album. It's like...THE BEST OF MELODY. ~TIMELINE~, which it seems melody is basically telling her fans not to forget her. That's how it sounds to me anyway.

[bondingo]

I always thought her music was really bland, so this doesn't really matter to me.

[Re:★]

To be totally honest, Mel's music was very generic, nothing special about it really... The only really original-ish song she has is Finding My Road, the rest is very boring average pop tunes and average ballads with her sub-average voice. No boundaries broken. I do like some of Ready to Go! though. Just sayin'...

Edit: Plus, she ignores MySpace comments even though she only gets like 4 a day max.

[mimika]

can anyone upload her timeline album?

i really like her voice though..it's so sweet and caught me immediately with m-flo miss you

[Luv ~Venus~]
