These two were not a couple but after they sang in the studio Aaron said, “I will see you at the Grammies.” And he was right. They got a Grammy for this one and in 1991 got another one for best duo “All My Life” both songs come from Linda’s album ,”Cry Like a Rainstorm, Howl Like the Wind”. They loved one another as friends and worked together to create magic for us.
@@NAILS313 I looked it up and it says “reports say”. If he had a three year affair I have a hard time finding it gossip. He divorced from Joel Roux in 2007 and remarried in 2008. The only pictures of them together are public photos In entertainment photos. Could be but I do believe they loved one another but not that way. Oh well.
Actually the producers of the grammys told them not to kiss at the end of the song because they feared backlash because of the interracial thing but Linda said she was doing it anyway. But they were not a couple; his wife is sitting in the audience. They were all just good friends.
Aaron, and his family are New Orleans royalty. He started out with his brothers and went solo, he’s my favorite artist. His children and nephews and nieces are also in music.
Incredible performance. Every time I listen to the studio version and Linda comes in with, “look at these eyes”, and then into “look at these dreams, so deep and so battered”, on the word ‘battered’ she just soars into the heavens in operatic perfection and takes my soul along with her.
Linda & Aaron did several duets together over the years. Their voices blended so well. The Nevilles are a famous musical family from NOLA, several brothers who could sing and play several instruments. They really put on a show! Thanks for sharing this one.
I remember watching this performance on TV back when we all used to watch the award shows as a family. Aaron's voice always has that quiver, his style is unique.
I believe both Aaron Neville and Linda Ronstadt were wonderful performed with such rich strong voices made this authentic performance so well done and I believe they won a Grammy for that year!
Two amazing singers here who have great chemistry and performed so well together. Everyone knows how great Linda is but Aaron is amazing too. His voice is so unique and you would never guess it was his voice by looking at him as he is an absolute mountain of a man.
Aaron Neville is a fixture in New Orleans, just about every band that comes out in New Orleans has one of the cousins, Brothers sons daughters of the Nevilles. Do some Dr John also a fixture in New Orleans, and a huge influence on New Orleans artists that started at Tipitina's. This was an awesome breakthrough in music with Aaron Neville and Linda Ronstadt a lot of people thought they were a couple but they were not. Just a freaking awesome song.
Being from Louisiana Iam very familiar with Arron Neville’s he is beloved in New Orleans . Great voice . Just friends and mutual respect .please do more from Aaron he has some good music out there .
You can love someone without being 'in love' with them. These two toured together and really loved each other. Linda said when she sang with him onstage it was like singing next to an angel...
This is sheer perfection - glorious blending of two voices from Heaven. ❤ When they finished the recording session for this song Aaron turned to Linda and said, "see you at the Grammys". Indeed!! ❤❤❤
When they won the Grammy for this song, Aaron was nervous and said he forgot his speech. But he thanked Linda and then he was at a loss. Linda whispered something to him and Aaron said "And my wife, Joelle" which gave the audience a big laugh. Linda had another great duet, this time with James Ingram called "Somewhere Out There" from the animated movie "An American Tale". A reaction-worthy song.
Aaron sang " Tell it like it is " in 1969 which I believe went to #2 on the charts back then... That song is worth checking out also... He and Linda were not a couple but they were great friends... Infect Aaron's wife is in the front row at this performance and it was his wife's idea to kiss Linda at the end of the song... Great reaction guys... Keep being awesome !!!...
Of course you're right... I tried to pull from memory instead of googling everything like most others that share their comments... Sometimes I'm wrong and sometimes I'm right on... That actually does make sense because I was 10 years old when I first heard it...
The Neville Brothers were four immensely talented brothers from New Orleans who formed an incredible band...one of the best live performing bands ever. Supposedly this song came about because Linda saw them play in New Orleans, and approached him afterwards to do a duet with her. His voice is amazing! Check out "Neville Brothers Live at Tipitina's" for some great musical and vocal tracks!
They were not a couple, just friends Aaron Neville and the Neville Brothers are legends in the New Orleans music scene, along with their sister Arthel Neville, the whole family is talented, I live 5 miles from downtown New Orleans so I got to see them perform many times.
Aaron has always been my favorite male artist even when he sang with his Brother's. His sound and vocals are outstanding. I go all the way back with Linda when she was with The Stone Poneys. She is a true legend. She and Aaron are just good friends and it always shows when they are together on stage.
Aaron was so absolutely full of stage fright...he had to look at Linda pretty much the whole time, LOL! Check out Aaron on The Grand Tour and Tell It Like It is!!❤❤🎉🎉
Another duet and intimate performance is Barbra Streisand and Neil Diamond singing You don’t bring me flowers. Young people find it odd but a few decades ago it wasn’t a big deal when artists kissed each other on stage.
Their chemistry is wonderful. For another emotional duet, Neil Diamond and Barbra Streisand singing "You don't send me flowers anymore". If you haven't seen that performance, you really should. It gave me chills.
Love this duet with Aaron and Linda! They won a Grammy! You should react to Barbra Streisand and Neil Diamond singing “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers” 🎶 🎵 at the Grammys!
Linda could and did sing anything. She brought the Eagles together. They were great for decades. Each one could sing his own compositions. Tim sĥoltz(?) Has a truly great song. So does Henley who introduced Lindt at her induction into the R & R Hall of fame.❤
Check out the duet, "Please Don't Ask Me", by John Farnham and Olivia Newton-John, with a full orchestra. It will blow you away! And like this, the kiss at the end is just for show, although they were close friends since they were teenagers.
Aaron Neville's first really good hit song was the ballad "Tell It Like It Is" from '66. In '95 he released the great love song "Can't Stop My Heart From Loving You."
Way to go, guys. I'm so happy that you found this video to react to. Because I've always loved it whenever I've seen it, but I hadn't seen it in quite a few years now. So it was pretty nice catching it again. And the fact that you guys were lucky enough to react to it. Kudos.
Lots of singers sung duets. Here is my list of favorites for you to check out: Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell (Ain't No Mountain High Enough, The Real Thing) (most of their songs written by Ashford & Simpson (Solid), another dynamic duo couple and married) James Ingram and Patti Austin (Baby Come to Me, most of us think of General Hospital when we hear this song) Diana Ross & Lionel Richie (Endless Love) Don't miss out🤗
Real & authentic music was created by human genius of the 70s, 80s & 90s. Today's full of kids staff, no life, emotion, souless & synthetic! True music died in the late 90s😢❤
When i seen this I thought: wouldn’t it be great if your microphone’s where closer to eachother? That way you both could sing along. I mean i don't think you 2 are just friends right? ❤😊👍🏽(would have even been more awesome video) 😁
Aaron was happily married, Linda never married. 🌟🌟 They were perfection as a singing duo. FYI: Aaron was very nervous singing at the Grammys that night, Linda reassured him she would help him through.
Sample Linda Ronstadt singing La Cigarra with Mariachi Vargas, she does this live and holds some notes incredibly long. Her album Canciones De Mi Padre honors her Mexican heritage, it was a global smash and stands as the biggest selling non-English language album in American record history.
Another big duet during the 80's was Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton with their song Islands in the Stream, if you haven't heard that one, you should consider it.
Oh, and another one is "La Charreada" from her Spanish album. The power she brought to the song is stunning. AND there's a mariachi band. How can you not love that?
Watch last month's Kennedy Center Honors - for Linda....et al, here on UA-cam..... including Aaron singing this song with Trisha Yearwood! Made me (and Linda) cry.!
Aaron Neville is one of the Neville Brothers.Check out more of their songs -- Tell It Like It Is,, Drift Away (I think a cover) come to my mind -- as well as Aaron's solo songs -- La Vie Dansante, Close Your Eyes, I Bid You Goodnight are a few of my favs.
Aaron Neville’s “Tell It Like It Is” will blow you away.
That is a beautiful song.
They weren't a couple, just good friends & have total respect for each other. Just a beautiful duet ❤
They sure were a couple, 1989-1992.
These two were not a couple but after they sang in the studio Aaron said, “I will see you at the Grammies.” And he was right.

If you Google it they were a couple from 1989 to 1992.

They did have a relationship and it ended in 1992
Incorrect. Their relationship was WIDELY publicized for years. Look it up.
They absolutely were a couple...1989-1992.
Once you hear Aaron Neville’s voice, you’ll never unhear it. So beautifully distinct and recognizable. A legend! ✌️❤️
Linda called Aaron her singing soulmate
Actually the producers of the grammys told them not to kiss at the end of the song because they feared backlash because of the interracial thing but Linda said she was doing it anyway. But they were not a couple; his wife is sitting in the audience. They were all just good friends.
He had been married for 30 years at that point, with 4 kids.
I heard that the producers wanted them to sing to the audience, not to each other. I'm sure their heads exploded when Linda and Aaron kissed.
That was such a strange time where those barriers started to come down.
Aaron, and his family are New Orleans royalty. He started out with his brothers and went solo, he’s my favorite artist. His children and nephews and nieces are also in music.

This song is very high on my list of favorite duos.😊
This and "We've Got Tonight" by Kenny Rogers and Sheena Easton
I remember watching this performance on TV back when we all used to watch the award shows as a family. Aaron's voice always has that quiver, his style is unique.
I also saw this performance on TV. I must have been 12 years old. I was into mostly heavy metal bands but, I was blown away by this performance!
I believe both Aaron Neville and Linda Ronstadt were wonderful performed with such rich strong voices made this authentic performance so well done and I believe they won a Grammy for that year!
This was at the Grammys, they had won a grammy for this song.
Two amazing singers here who have great chemistry and performed so well together. Everyone knows how great Linda is but Aaron is amazing too. His voice is so unique and you would never guess it was his voice by looking at him as he is an absolute mountain of a man.
After all he is called; “the man with the voice of an angel”!!
Linda and James Ingram, "Somewhere Out There" video from the movie "An American Tail". Great vocals.
Love Somewhere Out There

one of the most beautiful duets ever imo, and I am in my mid 60's. Love it.
Separately, these two have amazing voices, but together, there was a special chemistry. This performance was one in a million.
Being from Louisiana Iam very familiar with Arron Neville’s he is beloved in New Orleans . Great voice . Just friends and mutual respect .please do more from Aaron he has some good music out there .
Aaron Nevilles Ave Maria will make you cry.
The song for the true story in movie ALIVE about rugby players in South America.
Aaron sang his heart.
I'm 47, I remember that song and loved it in the late 80's that song broke down barriers! I love it.
Oh Linda Ronstadt!! The voice of an angel~
You can love someone without being 'in love' with them. These two toured together and really loved each other. Linda said when she sang with him onstage it was like singing next to an angel...
I feel like that was alot of admiration and respect for one another y'all saw in their eyes.
This is sheer perfection - glorious blending of two voices from Heaven. ❤ When they finished the recording session for this song Aaron turned to Linda and said, "see you at the Grammys". Indeed!! ❤❤❤

It was so cute when she reminded him to thank Joelle. I agree that they need to react to Somewhere Out There, it is beautiful.
Aaron Neville has a great falsetto
Aaron sang " Tell it like it is " in 1969 which I believe went to #2 on the charts back then... That song is worth checking out also... He and Linda were not a couple but they were great friends...

Tell it like it is was more like 65 or 66 actually
Of course you're right... I tried to pull from memory instead of googling everything like most others that share their comments... Sometimes I'm wrong and sometimes I'm right on... That actually does make sense because I was 10 years old when I first heard it...
@@dewman0269 great little tune though!
The producers told Linda not to get lovey-dovey with Aaron so, of course, she did the opposite. And, Aarons wife told her to go for it. Love it!

Definitely
Aaron has always been my favorite male artist even when he sang with his Brother's. His sound and vocals are outstanding. I go all the way back with Linda when she was with The Stone Poneys. She is a true legend. She and Aaron are just good friends and it always shows when they are together on stage.
I watched this live when I was a kid! It was such a memorable performance.
Aaron was so absolutely full of stage fright...he had to look at Linda pretty much the whole time, LOL! Check out Aaron on The Grand Tour and Tell It Like It is!!❤❤🎉🎉
They were good friends 🧡
Whenever I listen to this song I always have goosebumps.
Everybody plays the Fool and Bird on a Wire were huge singles of his in the 90s and definitely worth a listen.
so generous of linda 2 hold bck n let aron lead v vocal.
Aaron is from my home state of Louisiana. Love him ❤ They won a Grammy for this.
Linda’s album CRY LIKE A RAINSTORM HOWL LIKE THE WIND has several more duets with Aaron that are incredibly good.
Aaron had a Top 10 hit in 1966 TELL IT LIKE IT IS. 1993 he had a Country album THE GRAND TOUR and did George Jones famous single THE GRAND TOUR.
Another duet and intimate performance is Barbra Streisand and Neil Diamond singing You don’t bring me flowers. Young people find it odd but a few decades ago it wasn’t a big deal when artists kissed each other on stage.
Yes, their live performance of it at the Grammys is a must-see.
In my opinion, the most romantic duet of all time
I would rank it up there with John Farnham/Olivia Newton-John’s “Please Don’t Ask Me”
Guys people used to really be friends and love one another without having to do it!... genx was soooo lucky.
Beautiful song! Thank you so much for this reaction!
A beautiful love song well performed.
Great reaction, Sam and Phil! Aaron's voice is so unexpected and beautiful. Linda? There is nothing i can say.
Can we talk about these lyrics...So powerful! What a love song; two songbirds 🎵🎶🎼✅️.
Great reaction. The Neville Brothers were not a duo. They were a group. There were more than two of them.
Their chemistry is wonderful. For another emotional duet, Neil Diamond and Barbra Streisand singing "You don't send me flowers anymore". If you haven't seen that performance, you really should. It gave me chills.
Wow, so long since I have heard this, brings back memories! Such gorgeous voices,beautiful song!!!❤❤
I’m so glad to see you both back reacting so soon! Hope your UA-cam issues got resolved in your favor! ❤
Same here
For more Aaron Neville try Tell It Like It Is, or Everybody Plays The Fool.
He has amazing vocal control and range. Her vocals are as great as always. She can sing pretty much anything beautifully.
Love this duet with Aaron and Linda! They won a Grammy!
You should react to Barbra Streisand and Neil Diamond singing “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers” 🎶 🎵 at the Grammys!
Linda could and did sing anything. She brought the Eagles together. They were great for decades. Each one could sing his own compositions. Tim sĥoltz(?) Has a truly great song.
So does Henley who introduced Lindt at her induction into the R & R Hall of fame.❤
Love the Streisand/Diamond performance there
Aaron has a lot of awesome songs that you both will love.
I love this song and these 2 !! OMG so good
Nice one guys! Always loved this duet! Beautiful! You have some great older songs for new ears to hear and see and be introduced to. ☺👍
Aaron has like Linda long history of being in this industry, he comes from a musical family!!
Aaron Neville is a part of you Neville Brothers , they arel related. There are the first family of funk.
Check out the duet, "Please Don't Ask Me", by John Farnham and Olivia Newton-John, with a full orchestra. It will blow you away! And like this, the kiss at the end is just for show, although they were close friends since they were teenagers.
Yes! Their performance gives me goosebumps! It is the best!
Aaron Neville's first really good hit song was the ballad "Tell It Like It Is" from '66. In '95 he released the great love song "Can't Stop My Heart From Loving You."
Linda called Aaron her musical soulmate. ❤

There were 4 Neville Brothers a great band
aron got sweet soulful voice n lindas a very gd singer, great combo
This was an amazing performance by Aaron Neville and Linda Ronstadt!!❤❤❤❤❤❤I loved it!!
Another beautiful duo between a married couple is “When I Said I Do” by Clint Black and Lisa Hartman.

Don't miss out🤗
You would remember him.😊
All of my life by her and Aaron Neville and her Spanish music
Real & authentic music was created by human genius of the 70s, 80s & 90s. Today's full of kids staff, no life, emotion, souless & synthetic! True music died in the late 90s😢❤
The Touch, The Feel, of Cotton, The Fabric of Our Liiiiiives
Such a moving performance ❤️ Aaron also released one of my favourite Christmas albums. His voice exemplifies the magic of the season ✨
Aaron Neville’s Christmas album/ songs are beautiful also.🔥🔥His Christmas songs should definitely be put on rotation for your Christmas playlist!!
When i seen this I thought: wouldn’t it be great if your microphone’s where closer to eachother? That way you both could sing along. I mean i don't think you 2 are just friends right? ❤😊👍🏽(would have even been more awesome video) 😁
Want more Aaron, check out Tell It Like It Is with his brothers, Bonnie Raitt, and Greg Allman
Aaron was happily married, Linda never married. 🌟🌟 They were perfection as a singing duo. FYI: Aaron was very nervous singing at the Grammys that night, Linda reassured him she would help him through.
I grew up loving this song, and dancing to it at school dances.
Sample Linda Ronstadt singing La Cigarra with Mariachi Vargas, she does this live and holds some notes incredibly long. Her album Canciones De Mi Padre honors her Mexican heritage, it was a global smash and stands as the biggest selling non-English language album in American record history.
Linda also sings in Spanish.
If you’d like, go check her singing in Spanish. She is amazing!
This is such a beautiful love song.I remember really enjoying it when I first heard it as a child
Another big duet during the 80's was Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton with their song Islands in the Stream, if you haven't heard that one, you should consider it.
Love both of these singers...top tier! Also, fun fact, Aaron was a dedicated long time body builder:)
Oh, and another one is "La Charreada" from her Spanish album. The power she brought to the song is stunning. AND there's a mariachi band. How can you not love that?
Linda and Aaron had a romance from 1989-1992. They recorded this duet during those years, plus 3 more.
Watch last month's Kennedy Center Honors - for Linda....et al, here on UA-cam..... including
Aaron singing this song with Trisha Yearwood! Made me (and Linda) cry.!
Such a beautiful duet! Another really great live male/female duet is Luther Vandross & Mariah Carey - Endless Love
Diana Ross and Lionel Richie did it first and better🤗😍
You need to do Aaron’s song Tell it Like it is. Great song.
Good choice folks!
They were very good freinds thats all.
BTW...Linda was told NOT yo kiss him after this performance. Her kissing him was a middle finger to the producers.
This was my sr year winter formal song. Song has a lot of memories.
I like Aaron Neville on his own. Yellow Moon is a great song.

Please react to Aaron Neville "Tell it like it is"
he was very popular at one time, listen to tell it like it is.
