I read somewhere that Willie Nelson said that every man either has a crush on Linda or has never heard of her

Linda was still is, the purest voice of all time. No one close.

No one does Blue Bayou like Linda ,,, she caresses the slow lyrics and belts out the choruses like no one else

Linda Ronstadt is who god created when he wanted to show off! Rare & remarkable.💕

The Eagles were her band for several years, thats how special she is.

Linda rightfully earned her title as the queen of rock!

There will NEVER be another Linda Ronstadt She is a one of a kind! ❤ Thank God she can leave her voice with us when she goes!!

Blue bayou is my favorite song. God bless you Linda.

Ooh Baby Baby was played at every 70s wedding I attended with my family during my childhood. Those memories are strong for me.

Loved her at 17, still love her at 67♡💐

01/09/24 still listening to & loving Linda Ronstadt! This is when singers really sang, music was really music, not computer generated. Linda is still as beautiful as she always was. So glad to see Ruby Leigh on The Voice, sing a real artist’s song.

One of the 'greats' who could stand on the quality of her voice alone...no elaborate costume, make-up, theatrical presentation/'gyrations' or technology...just a 'gifted' voice, solid back-up band, and 'ALL HEART' from a 'free-spirit' who continues to inspire...if only in great memories~!!! THANK YOU, LINDA~

What a voice!!!! Waoo, I think that she has the BEST VOICE ALL THE TIME FOR EVER AND EVER!!! GOD BLESS HER!!!!

My all-time favorite artist. My dad and I would sing to her songs when I was a young girl. Tribute to my veteran father, 7 years gone today. Never forgotten always loved.

I recently heard an interview with Linda Rhonstadt & she says she LOVES KZfaq! I thought I was the only one. I LOVE watching her perform as well as hearing her hit all those notes PERFECTLY! I am disabled with lupus, scoliosis & just had open heart surgery to replace a mitral valve. It’s tough being house bound & really not feeling well enough to go anywhere. I play Linda Rhonstadt a lot of the day! I prefer you-tube because I’m a visual person. THANK YOU LINDA for all the joy you give today & in the past! God Blessed us with you! 💞💞💞

Good, a lady before her time. Heaven is here with Angels like her.

Happy Valentines Day....sweet Linda. I've loved your songs ever since the 1970's when I was a teenager in school. Love, respect and admire you! Blessings/Bendiciones!!!!

Blue Bayou fits more now with 2020 2021 then it ever did. The yearning for things to be back to a better sweet day where dreams came true. Gosh I miss so many friends and loved ones only to live to see the country fighting and sickness. Linda you take me to a peaceful place. 💋

from Kenya...I have a stoic heart but every time I listen to ....love has no pride and... long long time,my heart melts and softens!!

She's the G.O.A.T.

Ilove texas.. I live here 40 yrs. Like peopel in texas. Speshly. Houston. I love everything in houston and Austin. Mizic. Town...

A once in a century voice. She fills my heart no matter how many times I play her music, which I will until I drop. 🥰

Linda, I have pretended that I was you, with a hair brush being my mic! That was when I was 14 and babysitting! Now I am 77 and you energetic voice still vibrates within me! You are the greatest ever…thank you for make i ng life worth celebrating!

Your voice is a gift that only could be GOD-GIVEN! Much joy has come to me by listening to you!

I grew up listening to Linda Ronstadt (at 77, she's just 3 months older than me) and unfortunately, we now share the same debilitating disease, a rare form of Parkinson's Disease called Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. PSP stole her voice and today she is in a wheelchair and requires an around-the-clock caretaker. But thank God we will forever have her voice, that powerful instrument with a vocal range that defies definition. She sang everything from rock, to ballads, to light opera. Her album with Nelson Riddle and his orchestra, featuring songs from the 1940s, is priceless. God bless you, sweet lady.

when she sang Long, Long Time I thought it was the most beautiful, sad song I ever heard! It probably still is. I felt the pain & heartache she must've been going through. Such a great talent!

Linda Ronstadt is one of the greatest singers America has to offer.

One of the greatest voices of our time! Her music will live on for generations. Thank you, Linda, for sharing your diverse work over the decades with the world.

The woman who gave the World her wonderful voice...and The Eagles and Andrew Gold and John David Souther and...The Trio with Dolly Parton and Emmylou Harris. Just amazing 👏

15:40 if you're here to relive the original song that inspired an amazing Nick Offerman Emmy award winning performance which honored this immaculate Linda Ronstadt classic ♥❤

One of my best singers in my younger days. Her voice is electrifying. Be blessed

My dear departed husband felt the same. He listened to Blue Bayou over and over... I ❤️ it too

Linda Ronstandt, As stated earlier, A classy lady, pure talent. She sat a table away from me In Mexico. A dear from high school flew us down for her son wedding. Wow. what a glorious trip. Linda Was gracious, smiles, greats warmly. We toasted Eachother as we ate breakfast. Made my day. Thanks for sharing.

No musical genre was beyond her fantastic vocals. I arrived in the USA in 2004 from England, so was a little unfamiliar with her talents. I'm 74 years and I could be hers on request 😁

I'll never understand the jerks who hoot, holler and applaud during any artist's performance. Wait till it's over and then let it all hang out...but don't ruin the song, please.

Legendary music from the stunningly beautiful and talented Linda Ronstadt, very proud fan for over 50 years

Linda was my my awakening to music. However this album is just ok. So many more wonderful songs she shined with. Thanks Linda saw you 3x the best was in Kansas City KS in 1973. Still the best concert of my life. You were beyond amazing. Small venue I returned to a couple years ago for my son's Medical School graduation. Really appreciated how small and intimate it was and how much of a fan I became of you till this day I became. God Bless and thank you so much for your talent and the efforts you made for us fans. Would love to see you again if possible.... Asked for a new turntable for Christmas this year just so I could hear your magic again on vinyl. Thanks again for all your wonderful, magical, talent. It still touches my heart like no one else.....Bless you!

There are three voices you never forget,,, Linda Ronstadt, Connie Smith, and Barbra Streisand!!

Oh wow. :Somewhere Out There" is one of the lullabies of my childhood from the cartoon An American Tail. Fievel was one of my all time favorite characters. Love that little mouse. 💕

She is not only one of the top 3 singers ever. But what set her apart from everyone else is her honesty, true love for all music ability to sing anything and she gave in to the hype. A beautiful person to match her unbelievable voice!

Used to go to this corner pub in 1979. The juke box kept playing "Blue Bayou" over and over. Perfect intoxication ! Can't do it now.

THIS ALBUM IS IN MY TOP 10..

Definitely a superstars SUPERSTAR Down to earth Confident Absolutely THE BEST

One of the prettiest ladies with the prettiest voice I've ever heard making the most listenable music. God has blessed me to live in the same lifetime with her.

She sang some mexican songs with bread some of these where fantastic.

Whether it’s a balled like Blue Bayou or an uptempo song- - she delivers her songs as great as the greatest of all time. She’s a stylist - she’s recorded all genres of music and killed them all- in her shy quiet modest way. Blessings to Linda ❤️💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

I used to listen to her when I was a little girl 💕🌹

My Gosh, what a Voice ! Just sit back and melt into the Relaxation !

A truly talented singer. Thanks for sharing.

Amazing voice. So powerful and beautiful. Highly underrated. Love her!

For my money better than the rest. Pure voice that surprises you by going different places. Great back up band. Still rules the radio.

Linda, if we somehow muddle thru this mess and are still around 100 years from now, people will still hear your voice and shiver with delight, like I do, every time.

Everyone has to get old but we have lost the greatest voice I have ever heard in 72 years of life. She still lives on in my mind ! She is the only singer that can take a hit sung by someone else and make it sound better !

For my $$ , the greatest female vocalist of a generation . Her timbre , pitch , control. You name it , is just mind blowing . I only wish I could’ve seen her live . I was and am in love. Lol. Thanks Linda

Wow...one word...speachless! I've always LOVED Linda...I played her hits on piano in restaurants from age 10 through college, sang her harmony enriched hits with friends a cappella style for years...but this, THIS concert brings EVERY facet Linda Ronstadt brings to that brilliant diamond she so creatively built over the years of her reining as the Queen of...the Queen of...EVERYTHING upon which she laid those beautiful vocal tones that emulated from her very soul...I'm simply speachless after sitting, watching and listening to every amazing note she sang...so diverse, just simply AMAZING! Linda, if you read this, PLEASE know, and I hope I'm speaking for everyone that knows what gift you gave to the ears of the world during your rein, Linda, please don't feel that you let anyone down because some uncontrolled condition prevented you from singing any longer, once you decided it was just too much...by that time, you had already given us all the most wonderful gift any artist such as yourself could possibly give. The years of travelling with you along your vocal journey is a gift none of us could possibly give you the proper "Thank you" that you SO deserve! You're amazing, you're wonderful, you're beautiful...you lift the life in us all to a height from which we could never descend, because we don't want to...you've lifted us up so much with every note you sang. We LOVE YOU, LINDA!

Beautiful singers music amaizing so glad thank you and so great

Linda Ronstadt forever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks linda for your beautiful songs

A once in a lifetime performer. The complete package.

one word to describe her, " Great"

La mejor del mundo mundial! Te amamos Linda, los mexicanos y quienes gustamos de tu bellisima voz, en cualquier genero e idioma. Eres el soundtrack de mi vida.

Thank you Linda for existing in our time one of the very best in this life...... Bless your heart ❤️.......

People say she is one of the greatest singers ever.... They are absolutely wrong; such an understatement. She is by far the greatest female voice God ever created. Perfection in every aspect. No one can hold a candle to Linda Ronstadt. No "singer" today, not even the original singers/songwriters....She takes anything she chooses and makes it ten-thousand-fold better. Linda blows the originals away like a tornado in a test tube. People say, what is your favorite color; what food, if only one, would you eat the rest of your life? Impossible to answer. But, what music would you listen to if you had only one singer to chose? Linda Ronstadt. Perfection personified.

Best female artist of all time. Period

Some where Linda you need to know you have many, many people wishing you health and happiness because you had giving us your voice and music.

One of the best singers ever! Pitch perfect, gorgeous, sexy, and all woman a true lady. Even I had a crush on her growing up... and me being a gay man.❤😂 STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL 😍 🤩

Definitely one of the finest singers of any genera of her time. She could any song and make it belong to her. It is a shame the age and health has to deprive us of her talent.

One of the classics of women in Rock😊😊😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

I'll never forget the time my Dad's friend that drove a truck like my dad we walked in his house one day he was playing her. I asked who that was .he told me Linda Ronstadt I was hooked from day one. Love everything she sings. Especially Nelson Riddle music such beautiful music and the songs in Spanish she made for her father. Such beautiful music .and has the power in her voice too make those songs sung like they should be. Love you Linda you will always be the greatest woman singer in my book . The only other person I like is Ann Wison from Heart just awesome woman. With wonderful talent. God bless you Linda your most bestest fan. KRYSTE Deleon from Oklahoma.👩‍🎤🎸🎹🥁🎶🎶🎶🎚🎛🎧🎼🎼🎵🎵🎙🎤

another of the LORD'S gifts to our BOOMER generation. A voice so strong & then velvet that will melt you away. All her song selections about one thing: LOVE. And Drop/Dead/Gorgeous; STUNNING , Breath-taking beautiful lady.

Probably the most versatile singer of all time.

Someone to Lay Down Beside Me gets me every time.

The absolute best ever. What a stunning beauty as well as a magnificent voice. What range she had! So blessed to have such a natural talent. Made it sound effortless. Gives me chills just listening to her voice. I saw her in concert back in the Late 70s, was blown away. Mostly blown away by her speaking voice versus her singing your voice. She had such a soft, melodic, speaking voice then she would belt out these beautiful Spirited songs. Don’t tell anyone, But I had a girl crush on her too. God bless her!! Always a class act.

I have always loved Linda Ronstadt since I first heard her in 1974

It's Spring 2020 and I am a family man in his mid-fifties who's an out'n'out music freak with an eclectic collection of (not over-estimating) tens of thousands of musical recordings on everything from vinyl to high-definition audience-recorded live concerts. Linda Ronstadt still, to this day, knocks my socks off ever since listening to her covers of 50s & 60s classics like "You're No Good" and "When Will I Be Loved".... Music's been a major part of my existence since the 1970s when I could barely afford 45rpm discs. And, Linda's definitely "up there' in terms of being a major voice. One realizes how important (not just entertaining, but critical) a performer is when he/she/they perform cover versions that send the listener on a journey to the originators of those same songs. Linda Ronstadt and The Beatles and The Rolling Stones and later on, the Travelling Wilburys all sent me on mission to discover records by Little Richard, Bettye Everett (and everyone on the Vee Jay Records label), Roy Orbison (that blend of teenage heartbreak and opera), Chuck Berry (who I met once & shook THAT hand) and Bo Diddley (who I met once & shook THAT hand) (and everyone else on the Chess/Checker Records label), Phil & Don Everly, Carl Perkins and Sun Records, Hank Williams. As The Doors' Jim Morrison said on stage at the Toronto Pop Festival (Sept 1969), these illustrious performers opened-up strange, new catacombs of wisdom. But, back to Linda. Folks got to remember that she had guts and insight. She was the first in '82 (?) to release a concept album of cover versions from the 30s/40s Tin Pan Alley American songbook. The record was called "What's New" and it opened up an entirely new career path to which many vocalists followed later in their careers. Rod Stewart released like four or five "Great American Songbook" albums, successfully redefining himself into a mature, classy crooner (and providing the royalties and tour proceeds for the new homes his great-grandchildren will someday purchase). Rod, and anyone else who releases projects based on Hoagy Carmichael and George 'n Ira Gershwin songs owes a massive debt to Linda Ronstadt. She knew - gut instinct or perhaps good management - that looking to the past with reverence and taste (AND TALENT) is marketable. Sad that I never and will never get to see these artists perform in person. Linda's retired. Orbison left us much too early. Elvis, the human, crumbled under the weight of being ELVIS. Morrison and Hendrix and Janis entered orbit but burnt-up on re-entry before I was old enough to operate a phonograph. Good art is like that. Like the lighting of a wooden matchstick. You gotta look at the flame when it's burning as it may be gone much too soon. But, we still have the records.

Just her voice alone was so beautiful could stand alone. She is in poor health, but her music will live on.

The Most Beautiful Stunning Performer In The World Love You Darling XXX

Lousy sound recording but Linda's exquisite voice still dominates

This is a masterpiece that incorporates all of Linda's philosophy and musicality. It's full of beauty and that's enough.

Blue Bayou is ❤, at my age, I keep singing this song.

If Dolly says nones could top Linda vocals, u know its true.. shes a songbird. ❤

When will be Linda inducted to the Country Hall of Fame?

She's the only artist that tugged on my heart strings and yeah I felt the lyrics hard.

Singers today just dont have that same soul ..reading Linda Ronstadt memoir Simple Dreams , just brilliant 🙏🏽❤🎶

GREAT!!

My first ever concert circa 1977 or 78 that my dad took me to. And at the Universal Amphitheater when the ceiling was still open. Her singing along with the beautiful night sky above was heaven to the 13 year old girl that I was.

What can I say that hasn't already been said? Pure perfection!!! Back when performers had to have ACTUAL talent!!! One of the 3 TOP female voices I've EVER heard!!! No tattoos, No industry "uniform", No dressing and acting like a "slut". Just PUUURRRE talent!!! What a concept!!!

An extraordinary talent. Listening to her vocal range, so enjoyable across many genres is a very rare experience. It is truly very sad that her voice is now silent.

Sounds like Willie Nelson had a deep crush on her 😘

The most beautiful woman who has ever sung a song 🎵❤

It seems some are disappointed by the quality of the recording, if you're from her generation (I am) she sounds exactly like what I remember walking down the street with my ear piece in and listenting to her on my transistor radio. The technology wasn't available, but her magical voice was. Truly my favorite vocalist of my lifetime

One in a MILLION…..Linda Ronstadt!

Wow amazing music l feel like I want to dance...

When you sing this tune, it's like hearing a more mature voice of Lynn Anderson along with the group of musicians backing this fabulous tune. Awesome job everyone. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Yes to Linda Ronstadt always...🎉❤

Me encanta la música y ver los video de presiosa me alegra mi vida gracias por su música

Linda, you were such a great talent. Thank you from many of us who've enjoyed your music throughout the years and still remain huge fans of your repertoire.

I often wondered who the best female singer is. Here she is? ❤

One of my favorites, love ya Linda

Filipinos love here and hers song 🎵 💕
