Linda is one the greatest interpreters of songs that has ever lived....her combination of power and being able to soften it up even to a whisper is unmatched...I don't know much Linda, but I know I love you ! !
A pin-up with killer pipes. No freaking pretending, no auto-tune and she didn't hang out with her publicist. Very much the real deal. Love her and her music still.
Linda defined a whole generation of music and what I love most about her is she never ceased to explore a wide variety of genres, giving a “different drum” new meaning! Gutsy, incredibly talented woman.
Best singer to ever do it. No other artist has had success in almost every genre. Her first spanish album is considered the best spanish album ever and is played at every family get together to this day. She is by far my favorite singer.
Excellent advice. What a strong opinionated woman with superior ideals and open heart to all music. An all woman mariachi band, I had no idea, made me so happy.
@@marias7599 I love Mariachi Reina. They performed in Chicago years ago and we loved them. We were hoping they and/or Lila Downs had performed last night. They must not have been available.
I remember seeing Linda in Toronto at The Forum (music stage in the round within Ontario Place (on the edge of Lake Ontario) She was touring after recording her all Spanish album. Some dumb dumb actually yelled out "sing something in English!" LOL!!!
MOvalle Yes, they are great. Those ladies have been coached by José Hernández, the leader of “Mariachi sol de Mexico, so you can understand how wonderful of band they are. Being sincere, Flor de Toloache did good but Linda deserves the greatest quality because she only made great quality music; I hoped for “Mariachi Cobre” from Arizona or the legendary “Mariachi Vargas de Tecatlitlan” from México. That lady wasn’t recognized enough.
Julie and Suzie, I concur! So grateful she was able to experience this richly deserved tribute. Kevin Kline used the word "literate" in his remarks to describe her-even in this brief interview, Ms. Ronstadt's breath of knowledge and wit are self-evident. I am confident she will continue to live a meaningful and purposeful life among family and friends. My favorite moment of the night was seeing those big brown eyes we know so well, well up with tears at the sight of her beloved friend, Emmylou Harris.
So well said and so well put ! I adore Ms Ronstadt so much ! Not only so wonderfully talented but what a sweet person & great soul ! My heart breaks to see her suffer but she's handling it with such admirable grace ! Such an iconic individual !
What an honor to have been able to interview Linda Ronstadt. How sad someone who was trying to just read the menu order of questions rather than have good banter with Linda was chosen. Read your bios Paula Reid.
Linda has so much passion and love in her voice, always pouring her 💓 out in each lovely song. Linda, you will always be my favorite beautiful 👸 singer!
There is no question that Linda Ronstadt is truly an American treasure. I have the pleasure of meeting her briefly as she hired my band, the street minstrels, for fundraiser for a local Ballet Company in Tucson. I had the honor of singing a Cuban song to her with my group. The song was "veinte años". She was 5 feet away from me sitting at her table at the famous Hacienda Del Sol in Tucson. I shall never forget it. Thank you Miss Ronstadt for your enormous contribution to American and international Music. And what an absolutely beautiful tribute to you at the Kennedy Center Honors last night.
...and I bet Ms. Ronstadt was just as pleased to meet you, Mr. Ross! She strikes me as someone who is completely without airs or pretension. What a keepsake memory!
@@mexrasputin Yeah. I heard her and Jimmy Valdez Mariachi band in a concert in L.A. on UA-cam. I saw Bonnie Raite in the audience applaud shaking her head in amazement (La Cigarra). But the one that blew me away was with the Nelson Riddle orchestra when she did "What's New" a number from the '40's and early '50's and the way she could hold a note. flawlessly. I said "That's it. She can sing Anything." Not even Streissand or any other singer, had that versatility.
@@mexrasputin Yeah Bro, but look at how Muhammed Ali progressed with his Parkinson's; Sad. I saw her back in' '75 in Tucson. She came up to the micorphone, a bit nervous and shy. She said "Good to be home again, and my band gets to go over to my Mom's and feast out on Tacos and Tamales" And when that band started playing "You're no Good" man did she change and sang like flawlessly. She's lead a Full Life Man. Have a good Holiday, and Prospero Ano Nuevo; Peace
Nobody doesn't adore Linda Ronstadt. She opens her mouth to sing, she opens her mouth to talk, doesn't matter either way, she has just won over everyone. The priceless part of this interview is her advice to aspiring singers to master a musical instrument as a way or advancing their singing careers. So sage. And she would know.
One of the most remarkable female singers of all time. A benchmark by which vocal excellence is judged. Seeing my Dad slowly deteriorate with Parkinson's Disease, I know the struggle and my heart goes out to this wonderful woman.
We have put so many miles in the car together. Love you always Linda. I cry every time I see you with that dreaded disease, but I will always have your music.
Beautiful and humble... outstanding woman! One of my father's n' my favorites! Thank you, Linda, for sharing your talent with us n' the world! Many blessings to you!
Truly heartbreaking, to see her at this stage. Beautiful voice, beautifull appearreance and one of kind woman, nice soul. Compare to now a day celebrities.
John Gray the famous author has pretty much cured himself of Parkinson's and explains how he came up with an all natural protocol on his website. JohnGray.com or marsvenus.com
I have a book it tells you how you can heal yourself from sicknesses and diseases, and its backed up by the Bible. If you'd like me to send you the PDF I'd be more then happy to.
Linda Ronstadt Jim Croce and cat Stevens defined my young life in the 70s . Thank god we had them. Got me thru some tough times . I still have Linda’s poster from the seventies. Only poster I’ve ever had.
An American classic. An American treasure. This award was way overdue, and well deserved. Linda, although you won't read this, your music was a big part of my life, as well as millions of others. My "music bookcase" (no digital downloads then) in my teens and 20's were stocked with Ronstadt LP's, and I cherish them to this day. Thank you for your contribution to the American, and world, musical lexicon.
Linda has always been one of my favorite artists and I felt that she was never acknowledged for her talent up until now. Congratulations to a fine lady, artist with a beautiful soul!....praying for a cure.....
Saw her in concert twice in the 70s (once with The Eagles opening(!), once with Andrew Gold). Still among the peak experiences of my life. Linda Ronstadt is a great American, and one of the greatest singers ever.
I have had a lifelong crush on Linda, and I still do. Wonderfully talented icon for my generation, and she's humble and charming....at 2:10 she said " I'm here for the food " LOL. She's just amazing !
One of my earliest memories of music, was Different drum. I was maybe 3 or 4 years old , it was the late 70s. I was walking with my mom to the shops on a late afternoon and for the some reason this faded memory of mine puts that song to it. For many years i wondered who sang that song, it wasn't until i heard it been played in the background of a movie in 2012 that i was able to search it and found who sang that beautiful song i heard as a child that stuck with me all these years. I never would have guessed it was Linda Ronstadt and i never thought i'd ever hear it again. Such a lovely melodic tune, i am happy it came back to me again. Congratulations to you Linda, you deserve this, thank you for the music you gave us.
She owned the interview by speaking with intelligence and humbleness. She definitely didn’t have time for being spoken down too, yet was gracious in equal measure.
I had the impression that Paula Reid didn't truly "get" the total magnificence of this woman. Perhaps a more mature and genuine interviewer would have helped.
Not sure about that. It was a short interview. Linda did most of the talking and along with the usual 'lovey' stuff that you would expect on an occasion of this kind we are gifted a gem of advice (for aspirant young singers to master a musical instrument), and its given the poignance it deserves. Also Linda seems to be relaxed and enjoying the moment, when we know she tends to shy away from the public eye because of her disability these days (and dislike of flying). I know she is always the consummate professional but it seemed genuine to me, so if the mission was as much to make Linda Ronstadt feel at ease then Paula Reid (I'm afraid I don't know who she is) did her job. There's a limit to what can be done in three and a half minutes.
Yes..... a little awkward to have a young person who may not have even been born when Linda was in her prime. Of course that's not HER fault. She did a good job overall. She seem to show Linda a lot of respect.
truly a national treasure..i had the pleasure of interviewing Linda several years ago and she couldn't have been nicer or more friendly..and, of course, one of THE greatest female vocalists of the 20th century. A well deserved honor to a great American.
I feel like crying seeing Linda now! She is one of the best vocalists of my generation!! I've loved her music since I was a teen!!! She is incredibly knowledgeable about music. I wish she could teach. I learned a lot just from this short segment. "Thank you for the music, Linda!"
Yes, Rose. She could give online courses! Next best thing is reading her memoir and listening to her interviews. As I read or watch them, I UA-cam artists and performances she references. She has taken me on a fascinating musical journey!
To me she Is the greatest voice in the world, so sad she's ill and we will never have anything new. Saw her in Princetonin 1973, Get closer tour,Mad love tour, Canciones of my father tour, at Barnes and Nobles(Linda and a harp player) doing her Childrens album and With Marvin Hamlisch doing What's New and classics also Western Wall with Emmy Lou Harris at the Tower theater and at the Mann music center .First record I ever purchased was Different Drum, a 45rpm for 77cents when I was 10 now I'm 64Every lp.and CD since then. I knew what I liked a "long long time" ago. I'm going to Miss that voice. Adios my friend I will always love you.
She has never ceased to amaze me. There's no one like Linda. She is truly one of the world's greatest treasures.
Amen to that !! :-)
Well put💚
isn't she just.
@@juliecasey3283 Wishing you a speedy recovery.
Fabulous Linda. Never forget the song Hurt So Bad, so much emotion in her singing. Get well. My prayers are with you. An icon
We are all fortunate to have known her singing. She defined a generation.
I agree 100 per cent !! :-)
Amen to that!
"She defined a generation." Really? That's a bit of a stretch, don't you think?
@countrygirl countrymusiclover I think it's decent she's of Mexican Descent.
paranormal33 , very clever !!!!! those who don’t laugh .... didn’t get it
She’s one of the best, very humble woman.
Truly an amazing ARTIST & SINGER! LINDA YOU ARE GOOD.! Pun intended!😜🇺🇸😇💞
I love her sense of humor. What a beautiful woman, inside and out.
Linda was the voice of my youth. Her voice was so pure. I'm so heppy to see her receive this award.
Linda is one the greatest interpreters of songs that has ever lived....her combination of power and being able to soften it up even to a whisper is unmatched...I don't know much Linda, but I know I love you ! !
I think she still looks fantastic! So down to earth in her interviews, too. Love you Linda! ❤️❤️❤️
One of Linda's most endearing talents is her sense of humor. I will always be a grateful fan of this remarkable lady!
Humble, smart and charming. She's a lovely person. Her reaction to Emmy-Lou Harris made my cry.
"I'm here for the food" haha Big love Linda! 💗
Yes ! When i heard her say that I almost fell off my chair laughing ! What a great sense of humor...I bet she's a lot of fun to hang out with !
Me af!

Sophia Linda never did care much for awards. She may have come for those who came for her.

I’ve noticed in many of her interviews that she has a great sense of humor. And it’s not surprising; intelligent people are humorous.
She is brilliant and passionate.
Indeed ! She never fails to amaze me ! :-)
Yes she is very brilliant. One of a kind woman.
A pin-up with killer pipes. No freaking pretending, no auto-tune and she didn't hang out with her publicist. Very much the real deal. Love her and her music still.
She never ceases to impress me. So articulate and witty.
Intelligent, articulate, sincere, light hearted, deep thinking, funny, vulnerable, confident, successful, down to earth, passionate...what a woman!
She’s truly a class act,beautiful inside & out. I love her honesty,sense of humor.
The word icon is thrown around a lot but Miss Linda Ronstadt is a true icon.
She certainly is! Such a great performer!. Not everyine can sing so many diffdrent sorts of songs and, do it to perfection. Thank u Linda!👏🏻👏🏻🙋♀️
Still a beautiful woman!
I totally agree ! Love her sweet smile & wonderful sense of humor !
those eyes
make me melt.
Exactly !
Absolutely!
Yes she is.
Love her!
Linda defined a whole generation of music and what I love most about her is she never ceased to explore a wide variety of genres, giving a “different drum” new meaning! Gutsy, incredibly talented woman.
You are SO right !! :-)
Maura Hobart I agree. I think Emmy Lou once described her as fearless. True.
Well said.
I love the gentleness in her soul that is revealed in her interviews
Best singer to ever do it. No other artist has had success in almost every genre. Her first spanish album is considered the best spanish album ever and is played at every family get together to this day. She is by far my favorite singer.
Linda is very intelligent and articulate. Her contribution to music can never be underestimated or taken lightly. A true legend!
Linda you're a freaking legend . You and Elivis had the greatest singing voices I've ever heard
WOW! What an intelligent woman and very well-spoken, eloquent, and humble. One of the best~
How can you not respect and admire or love Linda Ronstadt, super spunky Lady, even living with adversity she still loves life, you rock Linda
Sad to see her like this. She is still beautiful and elegant regardless. Thank you for UA-cam for all those old video postings.
Such a treasure
I have a notion to second THAT emotion !! :-)
Amen.
The Queen Of Rock,I Love Linda!!
Don't forget she is Queen of Country as well. I love to hear her song country songs. She had something for everybody.

Queen of everything. Was there anything she could not sing? No!
Correction! Queen of Country Rock.

The most emotional moment for me was the duet with Aaron Neville and Trisha Yearwood. I sang that song at a family wedding with my brother in law.
What an honor to have been able to interview Linda Ronstadt. How sad someone who was trying to just read the menu order of questions rather than have good banter with Linda was chosen. Read your bios Paula Reid.
An absolute stellar vocalist.
Linda has so much passion and love in her voice, always pouring her 💓 out in each lovely song. Linda, you will always be my favorite beautiful 👸 singer!
Bothered me seeing her shake... '' father time '' can be so heartless.
Jerry Langlois it’s fucking ruthless. Reminds me of Angela Bofill.
She’s so beautiful 💗😭 it’s so weird to see her grow older, she’s forever young in my mind
She was there for the food. i laughed so hard for that. I love her
even with Parkinson, she still has a sense of humor and so loving
She’s truly amazing in each and every way.
It breaks my heart to see such an amazingly talented singer and decent, good-hearted woman suffering from Parkinson's disease! God bless you, Linda.

I just have to say her spirit is incredible. A legend! Love you and Thank you!
Love the brilliant answers to the standard, 'how do you feel...' questions. Always a classic ...
I love you Hermosa. Your music will never ever die!
Linda's attitude to this disease that has affected her greatly has never dampened her positive and uplifting attitude...An inspiration
So smart and cute. Such a great attitude. But, it hurts to see her in bad health and watching her hands tremble. She still has so much to offer.
I'm a nurse's aide, and she reminds me of one of my favorite residents I take care of. I can tell her soul is kind
I loved her "then" and I love her now. Praying for a cure for all sufferers.

We still want to listen. We still want to champion Linda and that rare voice. We still want to protect her from the evil doers.
Wow! What intelligent responses Ms Ronstadt gave. I'm proud that she and I share a hometown of Tucson, Arizona

Queen of hi-fidelity vinyl and even more mesmerizing Live. The interviewer sounds like she is talking to a child. Linda, Cool as ever.
Totally agree. The interviewer is awful, and you know what? You know Linda thinks the same about her as well and is giggling inside....
She owned the interview by speaking with intelligence and humbleness. She definitely didn’t have time for being spoken down too, yet was gracious in equal measure.

I worship and adore her. She and her music have been with me since my first days at college. She is the best ever.
I feel like crying seeing Linda now! She is one of the best vocalists of my generation!! I've loved her music since I was a teen!!! She is incredibly knowledgeable about music. I wish she could teach. I learned a lot just from this short segment. "Thank you for the music, Linda!"
Yes, Rose. She could give online courses! Next best thing is reading her memoir and listening to her interviews. As I read or watch them, I UA-cam artists and performances she references. She has taken me on a fascinating musical journey!

WhAt an incredible lifetime , from early childhood till now . An amazing heart wrenching honor
Made me cry
You made my teen years in the 70’s awesome Linda!! We love you!! 😘
I’m back to just see and marvel at her talking voice!
I would love to meet her, someday.
Thank you for the memories!!!
WOW,WOW,WOW, What a truly amazing woman.
Her voice was incredible. Even listening to her talk is mesmerizing.
Thanks for all the wonderful songs.
She had such wonderful insights into the other performers! Love you, Linda.
