I'm Gail Nobles, and today's topic is.....
(singing)
The song is by Melba More from 1986. "Falling", and that's today's topic. The single peeked at number one on the soul singles chart for one week. he song was written by Frannie Golde ad Gene McFadden.

I remember watching the video. Melba's video was like a mini movie to me. It wasn't just the music that made me watch it. The video told a story. The beginning made you want to go on in knowing what was going to happen next. There was an argument between Melba and her man.

Melba: What do you want?!!
Man: I can't live with you and a child anymore!

And there was an actress of either a grandmother o a mom saying...
Actress: You can't give up now. Everything is going to be just fine.

That was my favorite part. It's good to have a mom or a grandmother to talk to. I'm missing all my grandmothers and mom today. When I saw that video, I felt this day that someday they would all be gone. But just like the voice in Melba's video, I can still hear them say that everything is going to be fine.

The video "Falling" by Melba Moore helped me to understand her song more. She had fell in love again with someone else. The video filled in more of her story. The song doesn't mention what the video told at the beginning. Great stories make great videos. That's why Melba Moore's video was not just a music video, but a meaningful one. Melba sings meaningful songs with a great singing voice. She is still singing this very day.
