Yeah, what a voice. I think it was Dolly Pardon that named three women singers one of which was Linda Ronstadt. Dolly said, "they can really sing, the rest of us pretend"
In 1976 my best friend played this album and Specifically this song in his bedroom…. 47 years later Linda’s performance Still Moves Me ❤️ and I thank him all of the time ⏰
You would be right! The 70s, 80s, I covered quite a bit of the same songs she covered. It may have been Don Henley - it was one of the Eagles who said that her cover of Desperado was better than their original. I fully agree. She had a natural octave range - according to my voice instructor many years ago - is quite rare. A gift and I wish I had used mine more than I did. Under the circumstances I guess I can say I did the best, but still, I let too many people keep me down and for anyone reading this, if you are gifted and you'll know it if you are - then you need to use that gift! You need to hone it, keep it polished just as a saxophone player would keep their instrument polished and ready to go. Don't listen to the negative people who will bring you down because they will & even in the house of God! Oh yes especially in the house of God✋, they will bring you down, not even realizing what they're doing is out of petty jealousy! Yes, ✋ to God‼️ Use it/lose it. Just when you're giving into the pressures...you'll find you need your gift to sustain you thru the fires of life's hell - you need all of it❣️ Hang on, joy comes in the morning & accompanied by 🎵🎵🎵❣️✋
I fell in love with her voice back in the 70's, it took me to places the women around then could not. I have continued this romance all these years, thank you Linda.
There's somebody waiting alone in the street For someone to walk up and greet Here you are all alone in the city Where's the love that you took to your side Lonely faces will stare through your eyes in the night And they'll say Woman sweet woman Please come home with me You're shining and willing and free But your love is a common occurrence Not like love that I feel in my heart Still you know that may be what I need Is someone to lay down beside me And even though it's not real Just someone to lay down beside me You're the story of my life Someone to lay down beside me And even though it's not real Just someone to lay down beside me You're the story of my life The morning is breaking The street lights are off The sun will soon share all the cost Of a world that can be sort of heartless Not like love that I feel in my heart Still you know that may be all you'll get Is someone to lay down beside you And even though it's not real Just someone to lay down beside you You just can't ask for more
Linda singing Live - nothing better than that. A songwriter's champion and clearly her voice was one of the finest most powerful and captivating instruments ever played.
I was born in 73 and in 86-87 I was obsessed and crushing on Linda Ronstadt bad. Of course as a 14 year old I would have never admitted that. Now that I’m 46 I understand why classic beauty and a mesmerizing voice!
In my and my wife's life no artist moved like her. I've listened to her for fifty years now and she move me to tears. As Rolling Stone commented--the beautiful voice of century.
This song and Karen Carpenter's Superstar take me to another time and place. A time when music was raw, real and magical. Queens, Legends Forever. Thank you for the magic! 👑🌹👑🌹
This song has always been haunting for me...and as I age, even more so...love seeing the piano player at the beginning...she is better live, than recorded...very FEW people are...
Beautiful keyboard intro by the late Andrew Gold. The quintessential Karla Bonoff song that only Linda can sing and bring down the house. One of my all-time favorites.
Just stunning. A voice that takes you on an emotional ride - purity, power and heartbreak all in one female vocalist. May be the finest popular American music vocalist ever and the last where marketing/mtv/and autotune had no influence. Just singing to the heavens ...
Really excellent . . . she was a true singer. Not like many today who just take off their clothes and dance. This woman had true talent. She didn't have to take off her clothes or dance around. Her voice is remarkable.
Since the 80's every female singer is expected to dance around while she sings. It ruins a whole lot of potentially great performances. Then we wind up with lip synched versions because it's virtually impossible to sing well when you're dancing too. Kind of a shame that music has so been reduced in quality because the video is deemed so important by kids today. It's especially evident in the female performers, because most of the guys don't have to do all the crazy choreography.
When songwriting had imagery it had all the fullness of transporting you to a place the singer is taking you too..... Ronstadt captures the desperation of the loneliness she and others that are looking for anyone. She tells us this is the story of her "life" a woman desperate for love but looking in all the wrong places. Spellbinding performance, she is vulnerable here and knows she will not find a man to really love her.
From the Hasten Down the Wind album. A deeply committed voice - this album and the tour that followed left this tough guy transformed. Ronstadt devotees that came to her then have never left.
I’m 62 now . I never appreciated Linda when i was young . I started really listening when i kept hearing other female artists praise her abilities. Praise that is well deserved.
This is what you can get from female singers when they don't have to dance while singing. We have very good singers today, too, but the insistence on dancing while singing completely destroys any chance of them doing quality singing live, so we can't know if they're even capable of it. A very sad situation.
Was fortunate enough to see her live three times (1978, 1980 and 2003) and was always blown away by her incredible voice and artistry. She seems to be in extra good voice in these Offenbach clips -- the quality is exceptional. Feel so blessed to have these concrete performances to go along with all of the wonderful memories. Thank you, Linda, and to all of us who keep her music alive.
What was amazing about her was her projection and pitch at her volume. I heard many great bands in Selland Arena , but hers was the clearest most beautiful and powerful voice I heard in that arena in the seventies. The other clearest voice I recall was Neil Diamond. His voice boomed.
Perfect segue (Now, hear me out...) - Put this amazing Karla Bonoff song/LR performance back to back with Neil Diamond's "Modern Day Version of Love" and you have the most incredibly perfect picture of young people searching for love in the 70's... But, the crazy thing is, both songs are just as true and relevant today... Great art is timeless!! ua-cam.com/video/sQUqW6y7hxs/v-deo.html
In the context of the voice, the speaker, and the song, "lay" is so much the correct word. This song isn't a grammar lesson. It's a survival lesson, and after "lie" after "lie" you "lay" to get by. Miss you, Linda.
I used to see Linda R. & The Stone Ponys play at a roller skating rink in Tucson, where i grew up. In fact, i did a lot of my 'growing up' at the 'ol Sunset Rollerama, esp. out in the parking lot....
The Late Andrew Gold and some of the other most incredible backup musicians and vocalists perfectly compliment this awesome voice. Karla Bonoff most certainly wrote this exceptional piece. Here's one where the perfect storm comes all together and touches everyone.
LINDA RONSTADT IS THEE ABSOLUTE FINEST SINGER OF ALL TIME IN MY HUMBLE OPINION. NO ARTIST COULD MAKE YOU ROCK OUT AND THEN BREAK YOUR HEART LIKE LINDA RONSTADT. HEAVEN FOR ME WOULD BE FRONT ROW CENTER AND JUST WATCH AND LISTEN TO THIS BEAUTIFUL, AMAZINGLY TALENTED WOMEN FOR ETERNITY. 😚
There is no other guitar player like Waddy Wachtel. He is still everywhere and even better he played at the 2014 grammys during Lindas tribute. Ive loved him too since the 70s
Heard this a long time ago, thought I would try and find it. Makes me cry. I think we can all relate to this in some way. Such a sad song with a wonderful singer singing it. Bravo Linda ...sue Australia
Karla Bonoff did write this, as well as Lose Again. She's good in her own right, but nobody does a song justice like Linda. Get well, Linda, we are praying for you
Linda Ronstadt had great taste in songs she covered and turned them into hits from Tumbling Dice to Back In the USA (Rolling Stones/Chuck Berry)! Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison, Smokey Robinson, Neil Young! The list goes on and on. Besides Someone To Lay Down Beside Me I also love her version of Willin' by Little Feat!! Then there's her Trio stuff she did with Dolly Parton and Emmy Lou Harris!!! Great place to start is her greatest hits Vol 1 and 2!!! Real hits back when people actually bought music not like the fake streaming charts of today!!
I don't want to live in my past and I don't. The 1970's are long gone. hard enough in today's get around. But, when Linda sings...,that summer burns bright.
Song is a well done, romantic version of the "walk of shame." She still has the best voice in popular music ever, or at least did until her Parkinson's disease. So glad I finally found this song that has been haunting me for months, thank you!
Kay, she had so many relationships that I wonder whether she chose the wrong men or if she had any challenges, herself. She is my favorite artiste, so this is not meant to denigrate her in any way. I have always heard she was/is a wonderful, loving person.
What a great show. I met her briefly around this same time. I was a teen and my uncle owned a security company and let me sit backstage for hundreds of concerts. I'd been in an accident and was forced to wear a full body plaster cast for what seemed like forever. I was a mess at 6'2" 110 lbs. it was a conversation starter. Several huge names just had to know wth happened. She was one, Jimmy Page, Greg Lake, Tom Sholtz, Ann Wilson, Neil Young, Chris McVie etc. She was what I imagined. Rock Stars from that era were people too. (I saw a couple jerks his initials are D.H. and he's never changed.)
Thanks. I remember sitting next to Kenny Edwards at a party in Hollywood in the mid-80's. The metal music in vogue at that time worried him. He really didn't know what to think of it. I was having fun playing various L.A. clubs and drinking a lot, not worrying too much about it. I didn't realize at the time that Kenny knew the real music was over...
I remember this particular tour. 70's Pop/Rock was so powerful and elicited very strong emotions. Everyone in this band was so talented, as were the recording engineers, etc. All gone now, though. I was an eighteen year old guitarist at this time and the things I learned and the influences I absorbed back then are still inspiring my playing today. I wish everyone could experience these things.
I’m 70 years old. I still love Linda. I still get goosebumps when I hear her voice.
Yeah, what a voice. I think it was Dolly Pardon that named three women singers one of which was Linda Ronstadt.
Dolly said, "they can really sing, the rest of us pretend"
In 1976 my best friend played this album and Specifically this song in his bedroom…. 47 years later Linda’s performance Still Moves Me ❤️ and I thank him all of the time ⏰
65 now, still love Linda.
I do as well ❤️🩹
I am 71 I do love her and so beautiful
One of my favorite songs of all time...
Thank you, Karla Bonoff.
She also wrote "Loose again" on this album, which I also love. The whole album actually ...
A Masterpiece ❤️
Thanks for pointing out who wrote this song. Karla was a great writer and singer in the 70's
I consider Linda the female voice of my generation. No purer or more powerful voice ever.
You would be right! The 70s, 80s, I covered quite a bit of the same songs she covered. It may have been Don Henley - it was one of the Eagles who said that her cover of Desperado was better than their original. I fully agree.

She brings back some good memories
I totally agree, she is the voice of our generation 😢
Such a great performance from Linda Ronstadt, one of the best female vocalists in the musik history
Still madly in love with Linda 45 years later. When she's singing its just me and her forever❤
There will never be another like her. Sweet and soft, then the full power of her incredible vocals. I love her.
This women didn't need any dancers or auto tune ....she kicks ass on the younger singers bcause Linda is an artist with lots of talent...
I fell in love with her voice back in the 70's, it took me to places the women around then could not. I have continued this romance all these years, thank you Linda.
Different Drum
She put every ounce of her soul into her songs. Amazing.
She left her gift for all to hear
Thank You Pretzel Farmer 👍🏼
There's somebody waiting alone in the street
For someone to walk up and greet
Here you are all alone in the city
Where's the love that you took to your side
Lonely faces will stare through your eyes in the night
And they'll say
Woman sweet woman
Please come home with me
You're shining and willing and free
But your love is a common occurrence
Not like love that I feel in my heart
Still you know that may be what I need
Is someone to lay down beside me
And even though it's not real
Just someone to lay down beside me
You're the story of my life
Someone to lay down beside me
And even though it's not real
Just someone to lay down beside me
You're the story of my life
The morning is breaking
The street lights are off
The sun will soon share all the cost
Of a world that can be sort of heartless
Not like love that I feel in my heart
Still you know that may be all you'll get
Is someone to lay down beside you
And even though it's not real
Just someone to lay down beside you
You just can't ask for more

Sure does!!

Agree👏❤️
This song and Karen Carpenter's Superstar take me to another time and place. A time when music was raw, real and magical. Queens, Legends Forever. Thank you for the magic! 👑🌹👑🌹
Where today is there a voice like this? Linda was amazing and no one can touch her.
Adele
👍🏼… Hello /Someone Like You ❤️
This song has always been haunting for me...and as I age, even more so...love seeing the piano player at the beginning...she is better live, than recorded...very FEW people are...
Absolute truth - she singa better live, because she has had to to perfect the arrangement on tour. A master.
Truth… the Emotion She brings to this Song ❤️ Is Heart Wrenching
: .. ) …
Best female Ballad singer of all time. Drew you in, made you hear her pain.
Beautiful keyboard intro by the late Andrew Gold. The quintessential Karla Bonoff song that only Linda can sing and bring down the house. One of my all-time favorites.
God, this is beautiful.
No one could sing it like Linda Ronstadt! Best voice of all time!!!
This may be her greatest song she ever did
Or Lose Again.
Ray Sossamon NO IT IS NOT DUMB ASS. I AM ONLY 24. EVERYTHING OUT OF HER MOUTH WAS HER BEST AND I HAVE HEARD OVER 40 SONGS FROM HER AND KNOW THAT
Long, long time. But this is a very close second.
@@countrygirlcountrymusiclov5831 its so good to see you're out of prison
countrygirl country musiclover You’re not 24. More like 14. You’re immature & rude.
The first time i ever heard linda ronstadt sing was 1976 have been a mega fan ever since for me the greatest female singer EVER!!!
Haunted, sad and exposed. A singer of passion, tenderness and sometimes joy.
This song rips my heart out.
Hardest working voice of my generation! Conquered every genre, the most beautiful cry in her voice...
God, I wanted to sound/sing like her when I was a kid. STILL loving her voice in 2021.
Just stunning. A voice that takes you on an emotional ride - purity, power and heartbreak all in one female vocalist. May be the finest popular American music vocalist ever and the last where marketing/mtv/and autotune had no influence. Just singing to the heavens ...
rockslide Stunning indeed
Agree.
Agree.
rockslide Divine. She made us believe everything - heartbreak, sorrow and Joy.
rockslide so agree!!# she's great
Really excellent . . . she was a true singer. Not like many today who just take off their clothes and dance. This woman had true talent. She didn't have to take off her clothes or dance around. Her voice is remarkable.
Anthony Coppola
Only four decades later can I understand these lyrics truly appreciate her gift to us.
Since the 80's every female singer is expected to dance around while she sings. It ruins a whole lot of potentially great performances. Then we wind up with lip synched versions because it's virtually impossible to sing well when you're dancing too. Kind of a shame that music has so been reduced in quality because the video is deemed so important by kids today. It's especially evident in the female performers, because most of the guys don't have to do all the crazy choreography.
Linda always wrapped around the melody. Great singer.
Important emotional voice. Few else as vocally pure, stunning and heartbreaking. Linda...
My favorite all time Ronstadt song. God please be with Linda.
I saw her several times during the 70s & she was always great!
When songwriting had imagery it had all the fullness of transporting you to a place the singer is taking you too..... Ronstadt captures the desperation of the loneliness she and others that are looking for anyone. She tells us this is the story of her "life" a woman desperate for love but looking in all the wrong places. Spellbinding performance, she is vulnerable here and knows she will not find a man to really love her.
Karla Bonoff wrote that song. But like a lot of Linda's hits, she performed it better than the original.
The recording was superb. When she rode it LIVE with her band - mesmerizing. Linda in a vocal world of her own.
Linda & Karla........what a team (36 years ago and still relevant)
A great singer. Pure, clear and direct from her heart. Very special when she brought it live.
Beautiful piano, beautiful voice, fabulous song!
God bless the 1970's!! What can I say?! Linda in a peasant blouse sounding awesome- Me in bells lovin it!
She is just beyond magical.
From the Hasten Down the Wind album. A deeply committed voice - this album and the tour that followed left this tough guy transformed. Ronstadt devotees that came to her then have never left.
I’m 62 now . I never appreciated Linda when i was young . I started really listening when i kept hearing other female artists praise her abilities. Praise that is well deserved.
his voice is from another level .Linda rules.
Remarkable vocalist and a heart bandit. Loved Linda delivering this tune - singing so honest we are lucky she let us listen in.
Hiddenfear No More
"She's a bandit and a heartbreaker."
74 here and I've been enjoying her music forever. The backup bands kills it too.
Great singer, with a great voice, singing a great song.
The fact that these performances are still great over 40 years later are testaments to how great she is.
This is what you can get from female singers when they don't have to dance while singing. We have very good singers today, too, but the insistence on dancing while singing completely destroys any chance of them doing quality singing live, so we can't know if they're even capable of it. A very sad situation.
I’m 20 and this is my jam
such a beautiful song by a beautiful woman. it is so sad to see her wracked by parkinsons to the point she can no longer sing. I wish her the best
Mike S
What a legacy tho.....
She will sing again only it will be with the angels in heaven.
On this earth in the coming kingdom. Assuming she was chosen.
Was fortunate enough to see her live three times (1978, 1980 and 2003) and was always blown away by her incredible voice and artistry. She seems to be in extra good voice in these Offenbach clips -- the quality is exceptional. Feel so blessed to have these concrete performances to go along with all of the wonderful memories.

Jay Thompson I like what you said, interpretation is everything
Her singing touched me deeply ever since I heard it from my radio 40 years ago...
she had the ability to make every man want to protect her.. from what was undetermined.. just protect her... she was just so good...love you linda
Linda,the best!!! what a talent! so good.
INfreakingcredible. Love Linda!!!
I used to see Linda R. & The Stone Ponys play at a roller skating rink in Tucson, where i grew up. In fact, i did a lot of my 'growing up' at the 'ol Sunset Rollerama, esp. out in the parking lot....

Amazing singer,I'm a huge fan for along time.
Beautiful, no other words to describe this, just beautiful, no one else could do this like Linda, just beautiful.
this song takes my breath away.
I'm 70 also and she was the best of the best. Can't find anybody better.
Flawlessly Brilliant, Torch Rock, I always come back to this song
The Late Andrew Gold and some of the other most incredible backup musicians and vocalists perfectly compliment this awesome voice. Karla Bonoff most certainly wrote this exceptional piece. Here's one where the perfect storm comes all together and touches everyone.
❤️
This is one of her most hauntingly beautiful songs of all time. (Pre Stevie Nicks time, take notice of the lead guitar player though!) 🥰⚘😍💖
Stevie Nicks solo, yes. Fleetwood Mac album came out in ‘75.
Waddy Wachtel… played with Stevie for years…. Still does.
Tremendous. Pure, natural voice. The finest female set of pipes.
Seems almost unfair that she gets to use a mic. The woman could let it out there and make it sound beautiful every time it seens.
She just loves singing the music. Pure, natural and sad.
What a gem part of my youth what great times and the great 70s as a teenager greatest music ever
Queen of hi-fidelity Vinyl. Even more mesmerizing live especially this Bonoff tune.
LINDA RONSTADT IS THEE ABSOLUTE FINEST SINGER OF ALL TIME IN MY HUMBLE OPINION. NO ARTIST COULD MAKE YOU ROCK OUT AND THEN BREAK YOUR HEART LIKE LINDA RONSTADT. HEAVEN FOR ME WOULD BE FRONT ROW CENTER AND JUST WATCH AND LISTEN TO THIS BEAUTIFUL, AMAZINGLY TALENTED WOMEN FOR ETERNITY. 😚
Would have loved to see this fabulous songstress live. One of the best voices EVER! One of my favorites. Always.
Very beautiful voice in its prime, God be with her now in her health challenges.
still stunning. no one else like her in life or in my dreams.
It certainly spoke clearly of its era and the lonesome quandary of swinging while single. For me, it is her best performance. I never tire of it.
A classic Linda song...full of pathos and passion..one of the great all time female singers ! Thanks for posting.
Seeing and hearing Linda live was glorious. Rock and roll hootchie koo.
Clear and to the point. Great Singer, gorgeous pipes.
There is no other guitar player like Waddy Wachtel. He is still everywhere and even better he played at the 2014 grammys during Lindas tribute. Ive loved him too since the 70s
+j flo He's active on FB too
+Val E Thanks
+j flo AG no slouch on guitar either !
j flo 5
Wow, Not sure how many times I have listened to this. It still sends chills up my spine, you can't ask for anything better. Thank you for posting.
It is Andrew Gold. He played on a lot of Linda's song, Waddy Wachtel on guitar, another under rated legend.
Heard this a long time ago, thought I would try and find it. Makes me cry. I think we can all relate to this in some way. Such a sad song with a wonderful singer singing it. Bravo Linda ...sue Australia
That is one powerful song, for sure. It still sounds so good, and still hurts my heart, even tho it's not really my pain
Karla Bonoff did write this, as well as Lose Again. She's good in her own right, but nobody does a song justice like Linda. Get well, Linda, we are praying for you
Linda Ronstadt had great taste in songs she covered and turned them into hits from Tumbling Dice to Back In the USA (Rolling Stones/Chuck Berry)!

Then there's her Trio stuff she did with Dolly Parton and Emmy Lou Harris!!! Great place to start is her greatest hits Vol 1 and 2!!! Real hits back when people actually bought music not like the fake streaming charts of today!!
Lucian Higginbotham don’t forget her version of The Everly Brothers When Will I Be Loved. I like her version better though.
Karla Bonoff wrote this Masterpiece….
Linda Ronstadt Perfected It ❤️
I don't want to live in my past and I don't. The 1970's are long gone. hard enough in today's get around. But, when Linda sings...,that summer burns bright.
Amen ❤️… I know exactly how You Feel
Seen her 4 times in concert bought all her music great voice !! also good looking
Song is a well done, romantic version of the "walk of shame." She still has the best voice in popular music ever, or at least did until her Parkinson's disease. So glad I finally found this song that has been haunting me for months, thank you!
Thank you SO much for posting this beautiful song. My favorite. Linda was the queen of the single woman's pain.
+Kay Gowen i agree
Kay, she had so many relationships that I wonder whether she chose the wrong men or if she had any challenges, herself. She is my favorite artiste, so this is not meant to denigrate her in any way. I have always heard she was/is a wonderful, loving person.
Men can be intimidated by successful, beautiful women!!
saw her in concert. awesome lady
This is Linda's best band of musicians & this brilliant 👏 by all !!!
What a great show. I met her briefly around this same time. I was a teen and my uncle owned a security company and let me sit backstage for hundreds of concerts. I'd been in an accident and was forced to wear a full body plaster cast for what seemed like forever. I was a mess at 6'2" 110 lbs. it was a conversation starter. Several huge names just had to know wth happened. She was one, Jimmy Page, Greg Lake, Tom Sholtz, Ann Wilson, Neil Young, Chris McVie etc. She was what I imagined. Rock Stars from that era were people too. (I saw a couple jerks his initials are D.H. and he's never changed.)
I love this song, so haunting.
related to Maxine ???
One of my favorite voices from the 70s as a teenager. Still better than any since. At 63 I listen again.
Thanks Linda, you have always been a pleasant memory!
Linda I love you and alwayswill-God Bless
Perfection going on here..
Singing without auto tune what a concept!
Thanks. I remember sitting next to Kenny Edwards at a party in Hollywood in the mid-80's. The metal music in vogue at that time worried him. He really didn't know what to think of it. I was having fun playing various L.A. clubs and drinking a lot, not worrying too much about it. I didn't realize at the time that Kenny knew the real music was over...
probably the best touring band EVER
I remember this particular tour. 70's Pop/Rock was so powerful and elicited very strong emotions. Everyone in this band was so talented, as were the recording engineers, etc. All gone now, though. I was an eighteen year old guitarist at this time and the things I learned and the influences I absorbed back then are still inspiring my playing today. I wish everyone could experience these things.
