Linda Ronstadt, no other voice like hers. 🥰.
The older I get, the more I listen to modern singers, the more I understand the greatness of Linda.

Yes. I was talking to an old college friend and she just said there is no modern girl singer she likes. I am the same. Lol said it was because their voices were aided. I just thought their voices were crap to begin with. Adele is our modern saint and I don't like her voice. It is one-note to me: leaden and lumpen. Linda, by contrast could and did sing everything: folk, country, rock, Tamla Motown, big ballad, opera and with grace and appropriateness every step of the way. She was The Eagles: "Girl Singer"

I was so lucky in my life to have known someone who could have been her twin. She has passed away now but I have fond memories of the nights we were together.
It will never get better than this. She is the best of the very best
Everytime I listen to and watch her sing....it tales me back...What a beauty!!
I’ve listened since I first heard Different Drum and have never been able to hear a better singing voice

Yes she did. She gave every song and every performance her all. No prima donna crap.
Linda defined generations of music 🎶 always the best of the best Amazing talent didn’t matter what she performed she made her own. There’s only one Linda Ronstadt, I have listened to other singers tried sing a song of hers they don’t even come close. This is what real talent looks and sounds like ❤her music.
The most fantastic voice I've ever ever heard
Wow now heres a concept. Great vocals, no auto tune. No ridiculous costumes to distract from a great vocalist. Love you Linda
YES ! Linda Ronstadt is one of the BEST . That new gal Sierra Ferrell is very good also. So happy some of the younger folks ( Sierra, Billy Strings, Molly Tuttle, etc) are bringing this music back and keeping it alive ! Flash & trash only last so long ...........REAL TALENT lives on forever.

Pure music, no gimmicks.
Linda at the height of her cuteness... but the beginning of her powers!
Her music brings back the times. Always loved her.
my first "celebrity crush"...saw her on TV with the Stone Ponies & thought she was the purtiest thing I'd ever seen!!
Unbelievable talent!!
What an incredible woman - RIP Linda.

No words for the chills this song gives me, she was the real deal
I was a teen in the 60's. We had so much fun. We would dance and dance. They were fun yrs.
Powerful voice, great range, along with a talented group of musicians. When you have all that, no need for pyrotechnics, gay backup dance troupes, and other such nonsense. Linda in her prime during the late 70's was the real deal...today's so-called "singers" shouldn't even be in the same room with her. Glad I got to see many of her shows during that time period.

OMG Linda... .you're killing me still. A goddess in every way w the voice of an angel.
I heard this amazing voice when I was 14 years old. Finally got the chance to witness her in concert on October 9th, 1980 for my 20th birthday. I still have the concert jersey and admission ticket, row 34. Cost was $12.50. One of my most prized possessions. Would gladly give them to her just to see the photo of her smiling as she reminisce of the good ole days. Thank you Linda Ronstadt for the many years of glorious entertainment.

i am 70 years old and grew up with this voice....still makes me tingle to listen to her....
The best version of this song imho
She will always be the Queen of rock to me.. ❤️
This is a great song, and a great artist. I wish my grandchildren would listen. Someday…
I hope Linda is happy and well. X.
Linda was one of a kind..Loved her and still do. She is kind, smart, and gracious. I was fortunate enough to see her in concert in Hartford CT in the seventies.
We sure all looked great 45 years ago.
She has an amazing voice. So much strength and character in her singing.❤❤❤
She had a way of taking a good song by someone else and making it soooo much better and before its over you can't seem to think that she wrote and was the only one who sang it. Her version of Paul Anka's song You Won't Matter Anymore originally done by Buddy Holly which was good, but then back to back Linda does her version and it just slays me!!! Same with Blue Bayou and that was with Roy Orbison singing his version before she did hers!!! Hers with steel guitar on it is incredible!!!
Just WOW! What a voice!
I saw her live in oct.1976 with andrew.gold and kenny edwards..at nash.tenn.

My gosh this gal was absolutely adorable and talented on top of it. It was sheer fun to be in my twenties following her and all the other cool top game musicians at that time. Music will never be as good as it was then.
They'll never make another Linda.
Went to a Neil Young concert and this somewhat known just left The Stone Pony's opened for Neil. Not to often do somewhat known opening acts get a standing ovation. Linda did. My how I remember that voice.

@@lnl3237 Yes she did get a standing ovation. Things I remember are she was anti drug, her voice was so strong it hit the wall behind us and we could feel it hit the back of out heads. Neil Young was the only performer who sang "turn on the lights" as his standing ovation. Always thought that was funny as the crowd was asking the venue to turn on the lights and the concert would then be over. This concert was almost 50 years ago. Such talent.

Great singer. Gorgeous voice. Natural power and unadorned tenderness. Linda was in her own spectrum.
Mary Ann Summers(Gilligan's Island) flashed through my mind the moment just before she started signing!
Great song very true thanks for sharing 😁💜💕🧛♀️✋💯percebt true
The very first country rock song THIS old man ever heard.
What made Linda unique was she could sing any kind of song .She is coping with her illness with great dignity .God bless her
This concert appeared in my daily feed and oh am I glad it did. It was this song in particular that really caught my ears. Andrew counts it in with four guitar scratches and we’re off and runnin! I wasn’t too familiar with the origins of this song but I did search out its authors and original release from the fifties. Linda in so many ways defined the term “country rock.” She’s just irresistible - fun to listen to and this band she’s got..well..they’re damn TOP NOTCH. Love it!
