Melissa Manchester is back with a fresh new take on her song “Fire in the Morning,” a ballad from 1980 and a fan favorite at her shows over the years.
The song wasn’t a huge radio hit but the song touched Melissa’s fans and she decided to rework the song after fan requests and interest.
Melissa said, "We frequently get requests for this song; and by the time I get it, I haven't rehearsed it, so I don't often sing it. You know, maybe I'll sing a few bars of it. But this turned out to be very sweet and very lovely. And my 'Fan-chesters' are so dear, they're like a village of sweet aunts and uncles [laughs]. They don't admonish me nut they say, you really need to try this or really, really do this. This would be fun."
