Linda is the only artist I know who has found success in EVERY mainstream genre. Country, Pop, Folk, Rock R&B and Classical. She’s a legend.
And a mexican album. She is part mexican. Stunning voice
Hmm Shawn I just had a thought to your reply wow that be same as Angelina Jordan as well…. Yes 👍 cos damn grew up with LR absolutely beautiful
@@legaci2558 Best-selling album of all time to boot in that genre.
@@pffp6246 okay. I will go down that rabbit hole
She is one my favorite sings great voice
This song really showcases the silkiness of Linda Ronstadt's voice.
I love how Asia and BJ appreciate. It is so amazing. They truly have a good ear and an honest opinion.
That's a very accurate description.
"Long, Long Time"
Linda Ronstadt deserved so much recognition.
A lot of people don't appreciate how much control is required to sing softly, but fully and strongly. Gorgeous voice! What a tone she had! I could listen to her voice in general, and this song in particular, over and over. She's one of the rare ones. Peace!
Lindd Ronstadt and Aaron neville "dont know much" (live version) one of the greatest duets !!!
OMG for sure !!! This one is just a must !!!! Linda Ronstadt and Aaron Neville "don't know much" (live version)
Yesssss!!!! 🥰
Yes that’s a classic
thanks for the reminder! even tho most likely you will never see this, I appreciate
Linda is the first female rocker to fill stadium concerts. So many genres - so many successes. This is a rabbit hole you want to dive in to. Every musician looks up to her.
Asia & BJ, her "You're No Good" and "When Will I Be Loved" are next for you! They are bangers. One of the greatest voices of the 20th century!
The Midnight Special version of You're no good is awesome
Add Long, Long Time to the list.
@@edevard9048 ...and 'It Doesn't Matter any More'.
Carrie can do this too
studio version of "you're no good" is a must as it is a highly produced masterpiece and damn near impossible to reproduce live.
The lovely Linda no one can touch her, she was one of the top female artists of the 70's and 80's, you should see her doing the live version of this song, no auto tune, artists don't perform like this anymore. She was a pure musical genius who explored multiple musical genres and was a smashing success in all of them!
Agreed except I would say she was probably the best female vocalist of the last century.
Karen Carpenter.....
@@davidh6818 They are all divine humman voices and all deserve top billing. One is One
Linda Ronstadt was the number one female artist of the 197o's. Along the way she was instrumental in developing what is known as the California sound. She along with Jackson Browne, J.D.Souther, and the Eagles, who at onetime were her backup band, harnessed the folk, country and rock to create a new music and laid back attitude.
She was also defined by the covers of other artist's material. Most notably,
TUMBLING DICE by ROLLING STONES
ALISON by ELVIS COSTELLO
TRACKS OF MY TEARS and OO BABY, BABY by SMOKEY ROBINSON,
BLUE BAYOU by ROY ORBISON,
HEAT WAVE by MARTHA REEVES &the VANDELLAS,
POOR, POOR, PITIFUL ME by WARREN ZEVON, and DESPERADO by EAGLES. The Eagles are known for fiercely guarding their material but respectfully gave her license to record one of their best songs. I think there is even footage of them playing them on the track. It is a crying shame that she is unable to sing anymore. But her body of work remains as to how great she is.
For a complete change of pace, check out her rendition of "La Charreada". She really channels her Mexican American heritage.
She also sang the English version on an episode of Sesame Street!
ua-cam.com/video/M-UvENadh1A/v-deo.html
"Guadalupe" is my favorite of her Mexican canon.
One of the few best female localists of all time there is no question she has so many songs to choose from and she sings so many different styles and does them all equally as well if you want to see two more versions of Linda Ronstadt it’ll blow you away start with her Mexican album and the song to react to is La Charreda… There is a phenomenal live version out there that people have reacted to
I'd have loved hearing her and "The Voice" Steve Perry sing a duet!
Linda was awesome. Her song catalog covers a variety of styles. This song, was done by Roy Orbison and I believe he wrote the song as well. She has Parkinson's disease now and she said she can't sing the same anymore.
You know you are dealing with a true talent when you hear a song in a genre you don't normally listen to, and can't help but stop to listen to the artist. Very soothing voice.
Any of her music is amazing. The Eagles were her back up band.
She also did two albums with Dolly Parton and Emmy Lou Harris called Trios. If you want to hear and incredible song, listen to their song The Sweetest Gift. The harmonies are amazing.
The Eagles
Linda Ronstadt defined the "angelic voice". You've heard not a voice more beautiful ❤️.
Linda brought back the legend that was Roy Orbison into the minds of the general public with this cover and for that I shall be forever grateful 😀
Linda is one of the greatest singers ever, inducted into Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. She and Dusty Springfield are noted for doing covers as good or better than the original. Heat Wave, Anyone who had a Heart, Tumbling Dice, That'll be the Day are some examples. Covered Smokey Robinsons Ooo Baby Baby and Tracks of my Tears. Incredible. Also did a duet with him. Hope you react to more.
Linda is an incredible singer. The live version of this song is great. Check her out with Dolly Parton and Emmylou Harris in Trio; songs: "To Know Him is to Love Him" and "The Sweetest Gift."
My dad told the story of being in college in the late 70s and his roommate convinced him to go to a Ronstadt concert. He wasn't a fan, but he went. He says she opened the show with "When Will I Be Loved" and he says by the end of it he was screaming "I love youuuuuu, Linda!" He also says that mom's resemblance to her was only a coincidence.
yeah, "coincidence" 😄
When BJ says “I’m liking what I’m seeing”, at 3:21, I was hooked. Linda Ronstadt has always painted a picture in my head with her vocals in this song. Pure art.
Only gal we can listen to over and over. Great musicians surrounded Linda's voice and she embraced the music. She could sing it all and so she did. Thanx
Love Linda Ronstadt! Started her long career in 1966 with Different Drum. Became really successful as a rock n roll artist in the mid '70's in 1977 Blue Bayou was in the country venue. My dad's favorite song. She was in every venue. Pop, rock n roll, country, Latin. Wow! She still looks beautiful today!!!!
There's a live version video available too. The mark of true talent is when the live version is as good or better than the studio version. Linda Ronstadt is a true talent.
This woman could sing it all! Born in Tucson, AZ. She sang different genres and she killed it when she sang Mariachi music and paid homage to some of her roots. If you haven’t checked any of it out I promise you won’t be disappointed… much love to you both…. 😊
¡Viva, Linda!
She sings so soft and sweetly then blares into this gorgeous belting out of amazing sounds that brings me chills and touches my heart. I can relate to the feelings she's able to invoke...and the music itself is relaxing and slow summer sounding.
They also played this in one of my fav movies - Man on Fire with Denzel.
She's amazing & sadly is unable to sing anymore due to a condition she has. Thanks for the awesome reaction! ❤
One of her earliest hits was " Different Drum" when she was with the Stone Ponyes. A MUST LISTEN!!!
Written by Mike Nesmith ( of The Monkees)
Linda Ronstadt has the most beautiful female voice on the planet. She was the first female solo act to sell out arenas. She ruled the 70’s and beyond! She has a forty year catalogue spanning multiple genres from country/rock to Mariachi. She did some beautiful duets with Aaron Neville, James Ingram and many others. Tons of Grammies and every other award imaginable. Just a great human and a huge talent. Thanks for doing this and please explore more of her stunning musical catalogue. Please do a live performance next. 🌺✌️
I respectfully disagree but Karen Carpenter is the best voice ever on this Earth
She comes close but isn’t it great that we have all of this great music to enjoy? Different voices appeal to different tastes.
@@debbiechang5781 Absolutely...take care :)
Linda’s talent is unmatched one of the greatest voices of my generation she defined music 🎶 when she did a song it didn’t matter if it was a cover or hers she made it her own the best of the best!!! You guys should check out FIRST CUT IS THE DEEPEST VIDEO pure talent on that stage or Tumbling Dice a Rolling Stones song that Mick Jagger rewrote that song for Linda it’s amazing
Linda R. has a one of a kind, iconic voice and she always nailed her live performances too!!! Good choice for a reaction!!!
She is most definitely a Legend. Never heard another voice quite like hers.
I can pick her out in a song without even looking it up. Her talent almost makes you weep.
One of the BEST songs ever recorded.
I adore Roy Orbison..but this is my favorite version..by far.
One of my favorite songs of all time and I listen to multitude amounts of music.
I have to give the credit of writing this song to Roy Orbison.
Awesome. I usually don't rock music like this. But if Linda Rondstadt comes on the radio. I turn it up. She's awesome.
I love her powerful beautiful voice!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
The live version at a concert is the official video for Blue Bayou. If you want to review it, she takes you where she wants to go. Pure magic. She never did a bad song. She can even sing opera. “Long Long Time” is a country song she sang that is like listening to a violin solo. So beautiful. It’s a sad song, and is so heartfelt that one feels her pain. Not too many vocalists can do this, but Linda is one of them.
Linda always performed live on stage ... BAREFOOT! I saw her live four times ... loved her voice! 🥰
If you haven’t reacted to her duet with James Ingram singing Somewhere out there, you need to. It’s so beautiful So sad that she no longer sings.
What blows my mind about this lady Non-Stop you know she starts off really soft slow and mellow and then knocks your socks off with ... "l'm going back one day, come what may 0n Blue Bayou" Dennis woman wins Grammys by singing songs in Spanish and blows my socks off again then she puts off Nelson Riddle songs and big band orchestration and blows our socks off and then hooks up with Dolly Parton Emmylou Harris known as the tree of and blows our minds again this lady is phenomenal and I miss her so much! Thank you BJ and Asia for tuning in young and old it's a great songs that will always remain some of the most beautiful songs ever song and ever performed!
"Blue Bayou" was my late mother's favorite song back in the 70's when I was a kid. It was a huge hit for Linda Ronstadt. "Blue Bayou" was written by Roy Orbison and Joe Melson way back in 1961. A few other Linda Ronstadt songs to check out are "You're No Good", "Poor Poor Pitiful Me", "When Will I Be Loved", "It's So Easy", and "Tumbling Dice".
You are right, Tumbling Dice is a cover of a Nick Jagger Rowling Stone song. I am told that when he her version of his song he said "Well it's her song now."
I was a kid in the 70's when this song came out. My older brother had a poster of Linda in shorts and on roller skates. She was a hottie back in the day!
This song was written and originally performed by Roy Orbison in 1963. Aside from Linda Ronstadt's amazing voice, this cover version also features Don Henley (from the Eagles) singing background vocals.
Linda is the Queen of cover songs ,and she makes them Her songs.Beautiful , beautiful !(and so are You! )
Little fact her band had 2 guys who formed a little known band called The Eagles. The 2 were Don Henley and Glenn Frye. They actually asked her permission to leave and she said yes. In fact she recommended them a guitarist to join them.
Linda Ronstadt is one of the best female singers & can sing any genre from ballads to country to rock. She has had so many hits such as "Blue Bayou", "You're No Good", "Long Long Time", "Poor Poor Pitiful Me", "Desperado" etc. Ronstadt also did two great duets, "Somewhere Out There" (with James Ingram) & "Don't Know Much" (with Aaron Neville). The Eagles were her backing band till they went out on their own & she has covered a lot of their songs.
I remember both her duets and I can honestly say that her singing somewhere out there with James Ingram was the only song I've ever heard that had me balling my eyes out as a kid I couldn't listen to it at all without crying. And to this day I don't know why.
When this first came out, I would play it again and again. Her voice is magical.
Queen of hi-fidelity vinyl, even more mesmerizing Live. Rare combination of tenderness and power. Even when she belts the beauty of her voice is sustained. Generous of heart and soul. Linda, as these folks can tell, was a rare songbird.
Most people don't realize that this is a cover of an old Roy Orbison song. Mainly because she really took it and made it hers. She had the softest, silkiest, sexiest voice I have ever heard on stage yet could belt out bangers also. Her vocal range is enough to make ANY vocalist sit back in awe of how wide it is yet she uses it SO effortlessly. It can never be understated exactly how huge she was in the mid to late 70s. No matter what words you try to describe her success, none will come close to the reality of the situation. While all the other guys were pinning up their Farrah posters, I had one of Linda. Facial closeup with an orchid in her hair. That voice and those big brown eyes had me hooked
The diversity of Ronstadt's music catalog is incomparable. One of the greatest singers in the history of music.
Classically trained, Linda Ronstadt can sing anything and it would be great.
"Poor , poor Pitiful me " is a rocking tune by Linda. It was written by Warren Zevon and he did his version. Both are great. Maybe a back to back ?????
Great Idea 💡
Linda makes you want to go there with her for sure. What a great singer - authentic and flexible.
A great singer she did a great verson of the Eagles Desperado.All the best from England and stay safe.
This is my favorite Linda Ronstadt song, but that's on top of a long list of her songs that I love. Any list of top vocalists of all time have GOT to give her a place of respect! She's a powerhouse!
Asia I was seeing when the vocals were getting to you and you were touching your heart and then when the steel guitar came in it even sparked a higher light in you all this is the magic of music and I love how wide your genres spread music you introduced to us all this is your gift to us thank you!
Beautiful memories...Beautiful voice.
Linda had that "cry" in her voice that made her very recognizable. She could sing anything - pop/rock, country, Mexican music, classical & musical theater. She did it all. First female pop singer on the cover of "Time Magazine."
Such a chill and relaxing song! Linda is one of the greatest female singers of all time. She was always a favorite of mine back in my teenage years along with Anne Wilson.
Her voice is just so beautiful. She can actually bring tears to my eyes
Somewhere Out There from the cartoon An American Tail is also Linda. She literally has done it all. ❤
The summer 1977 I Followed Linda Ronstadt I around New England for 7 Concerts and Pennsylvania. I've seen Linda over 15 times. My son just bought me that album trip album tree place my 30 year old album. Enjoy you on UA-cam.
Linda Ronstadt is from my hometown.
Linda is Hispanic,
In Spanish she is
La Charreada, excellent performance, watch live....
This was one of my mother’s all time favorite songs (she would’ve been 102 this year). 💗🎈🙏🏻 Thank you Linda 💃🏽
Omg this song is amazing. Her voice is so beautiful. Loved this reaction.
Thank you so much including the written lyrics on your channel.
Linda Ronstadt has one of those silky voices that just draws you in. I've loved her since the Stone Ponys days. Check her out on the "Duet" album with Dolly Parton and Emmie Lou Harris. She is simply AMAZING!!
Linda can sing any kind of music. And do it well 🎤🎶🎶🎶🎶
Very beautiful song from a very beautiful lady in her day.She was reclusive in her later years Great Singer songwriter..Great reaction guys.
OMG!!! haven't even started the video and I am excited!!! My Mother's favorite song of all time! What a tremendous voice!
she was referred to as simply "The Voice" - every genre of music - country, rock, Latin, Light Opera, folk, American Songbook. Her album "Songs of My Father" in Spanish holds record for most Latin sales. She is of Mexicana/German ancestry from Tuscon AZ.
This song was originally written by Roy Orbison...he does a great version but Linda made this her own, she nails it here. I don't think Roy's original version was as big a hit than Linda's.
It speaks volumes that most people think of this version instead of Roy's when you mention this song.
Of Linda Ronstadt's many outstanding hits, this is arguably the best.
Although I've heard this song much earlier in life I was very happy to hear it in Man on Fire.
That note at the end, and man she hit that note in concert without a problem.
An extremely young Linda sang backing vocals on the classic Neil Young song "Heart Of Gold" That soaring female voice at the end is Linda.
The live performance from the 1970s of her singing this song is great. Her voice is amazing.
My favorite song of hers is Prisoner in Disguise. As a matter of fact, that's the title song off my favorite album from her. Fell in love with the back cover art!! LOL
My God, I got both chills, goose bumps AND tears!! And I first heard this almost 50 years ago!!
This was written by Roy Orbison, she did an outstanding job on this song. She could sing anything...
Great reaction vid. BJ describes exactly how I have felt every time i hear this song along with her voice and that longing to be there...on Blue Bayou
She sings in Spanish as well. You should check that out, amazing voice!!
I am a 59 year old veteran and ODB (old dirty biker) I love your dynamic. The way you two interact and the obvious love of the music . I had to subscribe! Keep up the great content Y'all. MLH&R! (Biker speak for "Much Love Honor And Respect")
Love her silky-sounding vocal on EVERY song she sings! Check out her version of "What's New" - so amazing! Another female vocal that will blow you away is Queen Latifah's cover of "California Dreaming".. OMG! Love your channel!
I was a radio DJ when this song came out. It was one of the few that did not get old in extended heavy rotation.
I was in the Bayou in Louisiana yesterday. Beautiful! I wish I could send you a picture. It's a vibe I've never felt before.
You can go Anywhere!! I did 20 yrs ago. Never looked Back!!
Before they rose to fame The Eagles were Linda’s back up band. That’s them in this recording with Don Henley on backing vocals.
She really could sing she had a beautiful voice not to mention she was very gorgeous
Linda is 1/2 mexican she recorded an album in Spanish name canciones de mi padre with mariachi and won a Grammy by it how amazing was that!Love her
What a fantastic voice! Totally captivating.
Thank you for reacting and paying tribute to the Raza Mexican Linda. This song takes me back to Denzel Washington and his great movie Man on Fire. Love you guy's 😎
Asia has the most beautiful smile
Makes me smile ❣️❣️❣️
Gosh, y'all...please watch the live performance of this. So simple, so gorgeous.
Check out "Desperado", "Somewhere Out There" & "Long Long Time" for more of that beautiful voice & tone.💙☮💙
Linda Ronstadt is definitely in my top 5 of all time favorite female singers and I’ve had the privilege to see her in concert 3 times
So many great Linda Ronstadt songs, a couple of unusual ones I can’t let go, I knew you win, where she was moving forward into the 80s with a different twist I think you’d like them
"Blue Bayou" is a song written by Roy Orbison and Joe Melson. She called back many classics, and made them new to us, in the 70s. I love that tradition. And what dynamics, like Asia said. Artist Linda Ronstadt!
Great job guys. My favorite of hers is "someone to watch over" and anything she did with Nelson Riddle.
Great review, Asia. You GET Linda. I was lucky enough to see her perform live in the 1980s. Amazing singer.
Beautiful choice. From a fabulous singer.
I saw Linda in 1980 in NYC at a play called " Pirates of Penzance."
also, blue bayou is an old Roy Orbison tune - that dude could write a song
Written by the late, great Roy Orbison and captured emotionally by Linda. The Eagles used to play her backing music (before they actually became the Eagles), and I'm not sure what era, but the band does have their vibe in this one.
She does a nice version of "Beat of a different drum" with her band The Stone Ponies.
Y’all are the BEST !!! I love the pure reactions that we all have to the intensity of great music ,,, y’all get it ❤️❤️❤️🤩🤩🤩❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!"❤
