Blue Bayou (Linda Ronstadt) Cover By Kelly Clarkson | Kellyoke

[@davidao2551]

Who else gets reminded of Alisan Porter's blind audition whenever you hear this song? One of the best renditions and one of the best auditions ever❤️

[@vinscott88]

That’s exactly where my ear went!! Love both their renditions.

[@amras1984]

Of course. Alisan's version is the best.

[@nadia-selasekpenge2098]

I think of Alisan everytime I listen to this song.

[@josefernandoazcona502]

It reminds me of Alisan all the time. She owned this song.

[@jms4017]

That's the best version in the universe 🤍

[@royallins591]

Ronstadt's voice, especially live, was glorious. Powerful, tender and Linda sang as her authentic self. Nice tribute.

[@robinjohnson2760]

Good but not as good as Ronstadts voice. Love Linda but Kelly does pretty good. I hear Ronstadt sing it and it makes me cry its so beautiful!!!

[@beauxlee3378]

@@robinjohnson2760 No one confirmed heartbreak and longing like Linda Ronstadt. Linda Never sang for prizes or competitions. Ronstadt made grown men(and women and boys) cry for sure.

[@macmac3344]

It’s hard to cover a voice like Linda Ronstadt. She’s probably one of the best voices of all time. This was a nice tribute!

[@rhondamcdonald9545]

Kelly PLEASE you need to release a cover songs album...you are AMAZING!!!

Linda was Queen of high fidelity Vinyl, even more mesmerizing Live. She exploded this Roy Orbison tune and championed so many songwriters. Ronstadt was our dream girl come true.

[@evanlouis3336]

No one touches Ronstadt's vocals. She sang with such warmth, clarity and ease. Most females squeak and shout.

I love Kelly, but no one can touch Linda!

This was great! Alisan Porter sang this song for her blind audition on The Voice, that one is my favorite cover of this song. She won on Christina Aguilera’s team!

[@davidao2551]

I always think of Alisan Porter when l hear this song❤️ One of the best auditions ever

[@MP-ef9yo]

she did great but I think Kelly edged her out a bit. Kelly's tone goes great with this song

[@hgsh9811]

I absolutely love that version

[@vendela678]

I thought immediately of her too!! 💜

[@kyliepollert8341]

Alisan also starred in the movie "Curly Sue" with Jim Belushi; she was a little cutie in that movie!!

[@harlanchess8056]

Seen and heard them all from Aretha to Adele. Ronstadt's pipes were sooo gorgeous - no one really came close in terms of purity, power, control and beauty. Time for a diverse tribute album "The Songs Linda taught us". Rockin', Crooning, English and Spanish.

[@m.k.johnston3269]

Linda is AMAZING...so is Kelly.

[@whoisme3723]

Her voice is very soothing. I feel like I’m in heaven❤️

[@ThickUmmz86]

Linda Ronstadt would be so proud! ❤

[@jennifersman7990]

I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say that Kelly Clarkson is our new Linda Ronstadt. Not just because of this song but the sheer variety of songs she does. Linda went from genre to genre and mastered each. Kelly’s done Pop, Country, Holiday songs, Alternative just like Linda did in her prime

[@sunshine3914]

Definitely the closest this generation has. Quite a gift!

[@debbiecollins6517]

I will "say" (comment on here too) what I've said hundreds of times before....Kelly Clarkson has an incredible voice and proves, each time she sings a song like this, how very much she deserved to win American Idol!! Her voice, if anything, has only gotten stronger and better since that time!!! Kelly's high notes are effortless, smooth and soothing!! Now, if we could only get this former American Idol winner to have the Asian Phoenix (Morissette Amon) on stage with her to sing a duet, the airways would explode!!!! I could only pray she (Kelly) reads this and chooses to watch a few of Morissette Amons' videos!! The two together would be be even more incredible than each is already!!!!

[@ljbbooks9752]

How ANYONE can give a thumbs down is incomprehensible. This woman has never sung anything poorly.

[@HotHBoil]

I grew up loving this song, too! My parents loved it more than me.

[@DrPepperLove1024]

I was listening to Linda Ronstadt, and had forgotten Kelly did this. I would like to hear her do more Linda Ronstadt covers. It Doesn't Matter Anymore is a favorite of mine.

[@harborheart6558]

The Songs Linda Taught Us. No one has the power and warmth of RONSTADT but this Clarkson gal is a real good singer.

[@Fiawordweaver]

The only person I loved hearing sing this song was Linda Ronstadt. Now you can sit at her side proudly with your rendition🎉🎉🎉

[@ellenflaca]

Wow! I never thought anyone could sing this more sweetly than Linda Ronstadt, whose voice had tremendous power and range. Tough song to sing,tough act to follow but Kelly rocked it. What a gift.

[@SarahLizDoan]

Wow what a VOICE!!!! One of the best songs ever by one of the greatest artists ever (Linda Rondstat) covered by one of the greatest vocalists of the 21st century!!! Spectacular job, Kelly!

[@beyondthestacks]

I don’t know if I’ve ever heard many like Kelly that can literally sing anything and it sound incredible (and often better than the original).

[@HotHBoil]

Linda did it really well, but Kelly is the greatest contemporary singer now. She nailed karaoke on American Idol, and I adore her original material! OMG, we should make her sing Material Girl!

[@maxwellking209]

Kylie Cyrus can sing anything.

[@ttteclassic2994]

This was written and originally recorded by Roy Orbison in 1963. Linda Ronstadt covered it in the mid-to-late '70's. While Linda Ronstadt and Kelly Clarkson both do great jobs with it, in my opinion, very few can beat The Big O.

[@Gypsy.1959]

Kelly Clarkson is the only other female that can do this song justice. Her voice is very reminiscent of Linda Ronstadt's. Beautiful!

[@nasskc896]

I love you Kelly Clarkson. My prayers goes to you...stay strong my girl!!! Lately i been tearing just watching her...God haven't this woman had enough hardships? Let her breath for a second

[@kingdomthings9887]

Father's (God) way is perfect, always 👑. We all have a choice, to love and obey Him, to take the hand of Jesus and follow Him, or take satan's hand and follow him. Jesus is light and truth, satan is darkness and lies. I'm praying for Father's will to be done, in Kelly's life 😊

[@francoisswart3871]

Back in the 70s when I was a kid my mom had this on eight track tape. This was my absolute favorite song on there and Kelly did it and just as good as Linda did. Miss Linda would be so proud of how Kelly covered this song. Kelly is my all-time favorite singer. Linda Ronstadt is an incredible singer as well

[@janetweissman]

Love Linda Ronstadt- Kelly did her justice! Thank You 🙏

[@lnl3237]

So enjoyed this. Linda Ronstadt was the master of covering great songs by great artists. My admiration of her led me to the original artists and their unique gifts. Now it is Ms. Ronstadt's turn to have younger artists like Ms. Clarkson lead others to her.

Stay strong Kelly you got integrity and truth you will win this I have no doubt and move on to better. Your children must know already what a strong mama they have! She’s spoke of her mental health struggles but she still tries to be so positive with the spotlight she has. I don’t think I could be the same way.
