Ep. 16: Angels Would Fall

Hiya! My name's Terry J. Aman and breaking format a bit, my 16th episode of VideoFuzzy the Soundtrack, titled "Angels Would Fall," is an artist-focused episode about Melissa Etheridge. Yup, my Apple Music collection features six LPs by this artist, including her self-titled release, "Brave and Crazy," "Never Enough," "Yes I Am," "Your Little Secret" and "Breakdown." I open with a discussion of my first encounters with this artist, her music video for "Similar Features" and buying her self-titled LP release. In "Title Track," I talk about the music video I recorded and sent to my now husband in the early days of our relationship, recording myself walking the residential streets of Minot, North Dakota, and my emotional connection to the song "Angels Would Fall." I share a clip of that video to VideoFuzzy's Instagram account here: https://www.instagram.com/videofuzzy. I then talk about her "Yes We Are" tour with the Indigo Girls, which I missed hearing about by days when they were through my part of the world. Instead, I was able to check out her performance at the Fort Lauderdale War Memorial Auditorium on Jan. 21, 2025, posted to YouTube by the Skip Roper Sings account. You can check that out here for as long as it is posted: https://bit.ly/3MUZ9lq Finally, I talk about some of the themes she explores in her discography, including sensuality, openness and commitment. Also, this episode marks my second-ever entry in VideoFuzzy the Soundtrack: The Video! which you can check out here: https://youtu.be/NpO-5nIjXbo Enjoy!
