Lay Down (Candles in the Rain), apparently arose from the Woodstock audience lighting candles during her set (although most of the candles were actually matches or lighters). The recording became a hit in Europe, Australia, Canada, and the United States in 1970. The B-side of the single featured Melanies spoken-word track Candles in the Rain. Lay Down became Melanies first Top Ten hit in America, peaking at Number 6 on the Billboard singles chart and achieving worldwide success. Later hits included Peace Will Come (According To Plan) and a cover of the Rolling Stones Ruby Tuesday.
