In History of Rock & Roll
Melanie makes a cameo in "The 60's: Part 2" where Classic includes her in a list of performers Southern might enjoy at Woodstock. The comic then briefly fast-forwards to 1971, where Melanie is shown performing her hit "Brand New Key", which Southern considers "edgy". This references the controversy of the songs lyrics containing some unintentional sexual innuendo.
