Linda Ronstadt - Blue Bayou - ( Hiphop Head Reaction )

[@robertborsani4639]

Flawless performance by the best female vocalist of all time! Touches my soul everytime I hear this

[@williamcabell142]

Every young man back in 70’s had a crush on her. She is as beautiful, as is her voice. An Angel! 😎👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@joniarmel7308]

Classy , stunning , natural beauty. A huge star with a five octave range . Everyone loved Linda. Later she sang with Emmylou Harris and Dolly Parton . If you wish to look up Emmylou , you are in for a remarkable surprise .

[@boosuedon]

One of the kindest, approachable big stars ever! When two of her band members told her they would be quitting in order to try to form their own band, instead of getting upset with them for leaving her short handed or trying to talk them out of their venture she jumped right in and asked; "How can I help?" She was instrumental in getting them signed to a record deal, getting a manager lined up for them and even made some suggestions about potential band members! That was Don Henley and Glen Frye of "The Eagles". She is truly a one in a million person!

[@abracadabra3033]

Beautiful soul

[@dianaprobst3157]

@@abracadabra3033 She is. I've never heard anyone say a bad word about Linda Ronstadt.

[@kentclark6420]

She's so down to earth, and humble. And I could tell in an interview that she is shy about her recognition.

[@Boatzilla2]

Saw her in Jersey once in Willie Nelson's 4th of July concert. There were lots of great acts in addition to Willie, but she was the reason we came.

[@mamabear10]

Miss Linda doesn't know it, but she and a few other artists helped me get thru my teens. What a voice.. The Sweetest Gift is my favorite, a duet with Emmylou Harris and Dolly Parton. Oh, the harmonies.

[@richardkev3077]

No gimmicks. No crutches. Just talent.

[@julietenning7981]

I have heard this hundreds of times. Each and every time; goosebumps...

She was Gifted

[@summerbreeze-d2l]

Linda has the face, personality & voice of an Angel.

[@brucedillinger9448]

Blessed to have seen Ms. Ronstadt many times over the years. I cannot recall one instance when she was off-key or did not wow the audience. She had a gift and we are lucky to have been the recipients.

[@ur8up2jabberwocky79]

LINDA ROCKED US ALL, HER MUSIC WILL BE TIMELESS, SHE WAS A DEVA!

[@mic1240]

She also recorded huge hits in Spanish. Incredible voice across so many genres

[@gerardhodkinson2334]

Linda Ronstadt, legend.She could sing any genre, beautiful.

[@GaryNoone-jz3mq]

When Glenn Frey and Don Henley expressed their desire to start their own band, rather than getting upset, because they were leaving her short two band members, she actually helped them find the rest of the band members they needed. This is a very kind and gracious lady.

[@Teresia12]

She is so talented. This is one of her best.

Now we are getting back to cassettes and my mom had this one....I borrowed of course....they had LP's of her too....so very familiar with Linda ....always brings back good memories....

[@jeffmorrison2147]

Check out Linda Ronstadt and Aaron Neville Don't Know Much Quite possibly the best duet of all time

[@32720mjp]

Unfortunately we lost a glorious voice that recorded in all genres when she was no longer able to sing due to Parkinson’s.

[@deltabravo287]

Abracadabra - try “When will I be loved” by her. It’s a rock song and it was a radio hit for her in the 70’s.

[@abracadabra3033]

Got it

[@fidge54]

Yes. Great idea

[@marielaveau5321]

So sad she's lost that gorgeous voice to Parkinson's disease. You really should react to her duets with Aaron Neville. You'll be so stoked that you did. 😊✌️

What an angelic voice!! Much love

[@olgaramirez7739]

Truly a versatile artist!

She used to date Jerry Brown - Governor of California. Not just a great voice - she’s quite a looker too. Had a crush on her back then.

Linda Ronstadt has been wowing audiences for as far back as I can remember. I'll turn 52 in a couple of months, and can remember hearing her songs back in the early seventies.

[@decal2756]

This is her version of the great Roy Orbison song. Her most incredible vocals are on Long, Long Time though...

What a blessing to the World. Linda is a gift from God. Voice of an angel....thanks for your reaction, and appreciation.❤

[@abracadabra3033]

Thank you

[@carolinegoss856]

The control she has over her voice, to belting it out one minute and falling to a softness the next. What a talent.

[@HRConsultant_Jeff]

She could sing a recipe card and make it sound fantastic. Some people are just born to sing. Such control. So sad we have lost her voice, but we still have her.

[@lynnsmith3976]

Abra, Linda Ronstadt had quite a gift. Soft as an angel and then a powerhouse. She did a beautiful duet with Aaron Neville - Don't Know Much. Speaking of powerhouses - please try k.d. Lang - Constant Craving. Oh what a voice. Thanks for this.

[@mikefinity7129]

Love your reaction to this! I saw a TV interview, where the show's host was praising her music, her voice, complimenting this song, etc. and Linda says, "Well, I don't think I sang it very well" - I think referring to the studio recording. That was Linda, never satisfied with her work, forever striving to improve, grow, try new things, develop her art to the heights of her ability. And... DAMN did she ever! She was gifted with a sublime instrument, sure, but she worked her A$$ off her whole career. Her Latin albums - her best work, I think, because they came from her roots, right out of her soul.

[@crazydale1000]

I saw her years ago. Had 5th row seats. I was instantly infatuated with her.The Eagles were her backup band. An unforgettable show.

[@djwacolo3046]

I was in love with Linda Ronstad when I was 19! Her voice and style are soooo beautiful. Listen to her cover of “Desparado”. If the Eagles will let you share it with us(I believe they have the rights, as they were the band that wrote it), definitely have a reaction!

[@lydiajoy1823]

Love her!! When I was in high school I saw her at a Day on the Green concert at the Oakland coliseum. Was very exciting! 1975 or 1976, something like that. She appeared with the Eagles but she was the headliner. 💕💕

[@schylerosborne9803]

Listen to her sing "Desperado" but LIVE not recorded. She held back on her vocals in most recordings for some reason. Her best performances are usually live

[@kurtsaxton9665]

Now you have a real taste of Linda's incredible range, check out Long Long Time, Desperado. Great reaction as always.

[@abracadabra3033]

Thank you , Desperado i must hear that

😍💙Linda was EVERYWHERE in the 70s- the Midnight Special to the Muppets! She's dated famous musicians. & politicians~ She has tons of awards from almost all genres~ rock, blues, Tejano, folk, & opera!! Sadly, she now has Parkinson's & had retired prior to her Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction sev yrs ago.❤She's a FORCE!

Not only was she everywhere she was a huge help and supporter to some future great musicians. The sound of my voice was an amazing documentary. Tha everyone should see to truly understand who she is.

[@allenginsburg9680]

In a recent documentry on ronstadt, dolly parton..who sang with ronstadt on 2 albums said linda can literally sing any genre of music. Including rock, pop, soul, country, big band, jazz, and even light opera..as in the Broadway musical pirates of penzance. She also recorded a album of traditional Mexican songs in spanish..she is of mexican heritage. She was inducted into the rock n roll hall of fame in 2014. She is retired from singing as a result of suffering from Parkinson's disease.

[@c.henderson2663]

The lovely Linda no one can touch her, she was one of the top female artists of the 70's and 80's, she did this live, no auto tune, artists don't perform like this anymore. She was a pure musical genius who explored multiple musical genres and was a smashing success in all of them!

[@willblood7082]

My teen years were spent in the 1970s at the height of her popularity. As you said in her other video, beautiful lady and I thought so as well. My big crushes at the time were Linda, Stevie Nicks, Diana Ross and Debbie Harry (of the band Blondie).

[@pattyyoung2103]

[@garykelly7422]

Linda had the voice of an Angel. Her original band she let go to be their own band. They formed a little band known as the Eagles ☮️

Her original band were the Stone Ponys, Fry and Henley were part of her touring band which she even went so far as helping them meet musicians that would become the Eagles.
