Hurts so bad that she can't give us anymore brilliant music.

She was amazing. She just stood there and sang in street clothes. She was a gorgeous girl but there was no stupid realisation of that. She just loved the music. I so admired that.

I get chills when she sings

She sang this classic ballad with so much feeling, and the boys of the band really gave her excellent stage presence.

This song is my favorite .....I love it...!!!!!!!

Such a great rendition. From my favourite Ronstadt album too!

I am sharing it thanks in advance

As good as it gets! Luv you, LInda.

Linda hit #8 in Billboard, 5-24-80. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx! Shalom, Linda!

Her best song.

Still a beauty today at age 64. Kudos to you,Linda!

her and Ann Wilson have the best voices in music

That voice and that Stratocaster together.AWESOME!!!

This lady was blessed with a voice that could cut like a razor. This really bleeds emotion.

Linda is fantastic. This song I heard in 1982 or the first time and still love-it. A March evening, these tunes sounded on a radio of Buenos Aires where I am from. Many Greetings from Argentina!

great voice, great song, great instrumentals. 30 years on!

One of the best voices ever.

Ronstadt owns this song. The other versions are tepid. Great band as usual. Blending your voice with the wail of the guitar. Wow

So Romantic and Beautiful. Linda is really LINDA in SPANISH, Greetings from Argentina!!!

I love this song.

The guitar just rips your heart out, as well as the pain her voice!!!

the best of all...love ...love...love

The riff of the guitars is so amazing!!!

Love her voice & that guitar!

Love this song ... great vocals and guitar work ... In my opinion, this period of the "Mad Love" album was the best that Linda ever sounded ( the songs were just fantastic ) and looked ( so cute, with the rocker hairstyle ) in her whole career .. Great memories ! ... Wayne

I LOVE THIS VERSION!! Go Linda!!

Fantastic Version!!!

love this great cover.and how about that raw guitar break.but lets not forget why im here.linda so soft and gentle.yet full of edge.how hot that

Quite simply a mega-talent of the highest level

What a great voice!

love the guitar work on this track:):):)

I saw the interview on Tavis Smiley and she is still a beautiful woman on the inside and out.

My favorite part is when the pitch initially changes at 0:21. But in general, damn I love late 70's and 80's music. I love the look from that time period, the fashion styles, the movies, the TV shows, every friggin' thing.

Love this song.

LEGEND, HURT SO BAD

Love this song...so sad!

Terrific Linda

I so agree. It is weird. People I work with have never heard of her. To me she is the most incredible singer that ever lived. She would not agree, I know. Every song she sang she made her own, so much better than the originals. J D Souther admitted it - " Linda does it better but hey, I wrote it - it is my song." Elvis Costello is not so generous. She still did it.

killer guitar!!!!

l love you Linda!

@giaisbomb Randy was an original member of the Eagles and quit after the "Hotel California" album and tour. He was also an original member of Poco back in the late 60's. He was also the original bass player in James Taylors band, ending after the "Sweet Baby James" album came out. He is a terrific performer and singer in his own right.

cool 80's song

Two factors that led to Linda Ronstadt's eternal beauty:never smoking and never sunbathing.

I like both versions, but I love that killer guitar on Ronstadt's version!

Really have a hard time between her and Dusty on this rendition, but then been in love whit both forever.

I totally agree. The only one: ever. That is fairly amazing but I think that is her crown. I don't know how she did it but she did it. I have never heard a song sung by Linda that I liked less than the original (once or twice until I got past my original, "sound-track for my youth" prejudice. She just had such a feeling for a song - any song. A one-off and a voice that can sing anything.

LoveLoveLove...

nice

I wanted this today, thx

@samk1101 Back when Linda was drop dead gorgeous she never thought of herself that way.She has gone through a lot of health issues and still looks fantastic for her age (65) without all the stuff other celebrities do to themselves. We are all so lucky to have had her in our musical lives.

i LOVE YOU.

Noticed that a lot of people commented on the great guitar playing on this song, but I looked around and unless I missed it, I didn't notice anyone mentioning who the guy playing that mean Strat is/was. It's one of the great session players, song writers, producers you are ever likely to run across; Danny "Kootch" Kortchmar. I honestly don't think there's anyone in the last 40 years he hasn't played with. If you liked Don Henly's 1st three solo offerings for instance, Kootch is all over them.

...marvelous theme...furor in 1981....

YES!!

Such range. Kinda wish the sound was better. What a range Linda has.

Unreal

Oh, and they're FINALLY putting her in the Rock Hall of Fame? Bastards. If this lady ain't in, they need to bar the damn doors and shut it down.

Wow! No one today can do that.

It is Bob Glaub; he did the full 1980 tour.

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm me facina muchooooooooooooooo

YES IT REALLY HURT SO BAD

There's a live duet with her & Hoyt Axton doing "Lion In Winter" that is great. Check it out if you're not familiar with it.

@fifimsp Not really. In fact, in one TV spot, she actually said something to the effect of "they played a really wide variety of music on the Top 40 station where I lived. A Jimmy Gilmer song would play, followed by something by Leonard Bernstein".

Impecable voice! She did it with style and grace, didn't need to show her boobs or anythng like that, wear a ton of make-up. She was just about the music. God I love her.

Being that she covered Roy Orbison, Buddy Holly, and Little Anthony, I wonder why she wasn't an Easy, Breezy, Beautiful COVER GIRL, and be a spokesmodel for their cosmetics. Back then, she'd be a beautiful complement to Christie Brinkley. I truly believe that.

This has the Eagles sound just like in their 1972 hit WITCHY WOMAN.

Listen for guitar riffs just like the ones heard in WITCHY WOMAN.

Memoréis from the 80s arma das as a young prívate first clases

another good 1 is you belong to me by carly simon

This is as if both Linda Ronstsadt performed with the Eagles.

hurt so bad yes"""""""""

Had a crush on her in the 70's Hate to look at how heavy she got and now with Parkinson she can't sing ... I'm sorry for her ... it must hurt a lot no to be able to sing any more ...

A great singer! but we already know it, right?

The vocal at time 3:05 is good but there used to be a youtube vid that was even better - it got pulled.

The sound quality on the vid is crap, but I already know the song and it's great!

Is that Joe Puerta of Ambrosia on bass? Sure looks, and moves, like him...though Bob Glaub is credited as bass on the album, but doesn't mean he performed live with her. Anybody?

@aussietv2 Is exactly what i think...

an amazing song, voice, and talent too bad they pulled the best live version, copyright issue

hurts so bad that Linda's not singing anymore

OUCH ! I HATE TO SAY IT BUT THAT ....................................................... HURT SO BAD !

@RRNYC1998 What do you look like?

Man, do I have to live this shit, AGAIN? WTF? Shit!!!!!

She said in an interview her singing was not as good in the early years as it was later, like in this video. She said she spent many hours a day practicing singing her whole life. Her weight gain was from the steroids for her Parkinson, she said on the interview. Those are the meds Jerry Lewis gained 100 lbs from.

@RRNYC1998 get over it!

Not a patch on the Little Anthony original. In her hamfisted belting, it sounds like a Californian complaining about running out of suntan lotion.

@RRNYC1998 How dare you say that, we are all immigrants in this country

i want my girlfriend back so bad it hurths :'( i dont eat , i dont sleep i dont talk i want her :(((((((((((

@RRNYC1998 Both of which used to be Mexico until the Anglos stole them.

when music was music instead of bloody noise ! ALL stuff after 2005 is rubbish and repititious rehashes of old songs that are rubbished by modern youth who cant imagine new songs !

god damn you Parkinsons for taking her voice. I'd give my useless words to hear sing live once more

Is there anything this woman can't sing?

good cover linda but im sorry this song is meant for lil Anthony. Good job though
