Covers: What Have They Done to My Song Ma

“What Have They Done to My Song Ma” is a song written and recorded by Melanie in 1970. Melanie passed away yesterday.

Melanie or Melanie Safka (1947–2024) died on 23 January. She delivered a body of excellent songs. Her blast against the music business ‘What Have They Done to My Song Ma’ stands out. The German-language version ‘Wer hat mein Lied so zerstört, Ma?’ brought happy minutes of parody. pic.twitter.com/x4atST1t2a
