MOST BEAUTIFUL DUET EVER!!! AARON NEVILLE & LINDA RONSTADT - DON'T KNOW MUCH (REACTION)

[@deegomez2089]

I heard an interview with Linda where she said the studio execs didn't want her and Aaron to be to "friendly" on stage and Linda thought, oh yeah watch this and kissed Aaron at the end 💚🎶🎵

[@redcrabsc1149]

Love this- bravo to both of them!

[@lnl3237]

Linda Ronstadt has always been self-deprecating and modest about her own singing ability, but she never has had one ounce of insecurity or hesitation about expressing or doing what she thinks is right and just. These two so loved and respected each other. Although I don't think Ms. Ronstadt is a "believer," I just watched an old video of her singing "Silent Night" with Aaron on his Christmas special. Two angelic voices. Thank you for your attention to this dynamic duo.

[@Issy2226-c6p]

@@lnl3237 Well said. Linda has such a powerful voice solo, but the beauty of her harmonies with Aaron is that she restrains it, and allows his to shine which suits the melody. Their voices are so beautifully complimentary. I love this song and their Silent Night. Exquisite

[@lnl3237]

@@Issy2226-c6p That is the word: exquisite. Ms. Ronstadt once said music was "a conspiracy to commit beauty." And that she and Aaron did! Lovely that so many people like you appreciate such beauty.

[@debbiechang5781]

@@lnl3237 I absolutely love that quote from Linda. I’m her biggest fan and I thought I knew all of the Linda Ronstadt trivia but I had never heard that one. Thanks.

[@Peter-oh3hc]

Linda said of this duet "he could sing with a typewriter and it would sound good". Linda is amazing both as a solo artist in duets or the background. Adds value to whatever she does

Yes - I love them both - and especially Linda's live version of "Blue Bayou" -

Aaron said that Linda was his favorite duet partner ever. They adored each other as friends and colleagues. 🥰

You have landed on two of the most beautiful voices on the planet. This was from their performance at the Grammy awards. They won the award for this song and when they did their acceptance speech, he forgot to thank his wife until Linda nudged him to remind him. It was really cute. Nice reaction. Please check out more of Linda Ronstadt. She has forty years worth of beautiful music covering multiple genres to choose from. They have other duets including “All My Life”. They were not married or even together romantically. They just had great affection and admiration for each other. 🌺✌️

[@brucedillinger9448]

As always, when Linda performs with another singer, she does not try to outshine the other artist. She could have easily blown away Aaron's vocal performance with her powerhouse voice but she did what was needed to showcase his voice. Kudos to both of them.

[@Kitkat-qt7rb]

hmm Aaron is talent on his own,

[@taylemgames2652]

Aaron Neville and Linda Ronstadt are vocal Legends. They're just friends with deep regard for each other. You should listen to more of their duets. I really love the song. It was so vulnerable and real and it's expression.
