Jimmy “Space for Rent”24I was working as a disc jockey back in the day when she came to town for a concert. I got back stage passes and watched from the side stage. I swear when she sang Long Long Time she looked over at me and I was start struck. Couldn't get to the green room, but I fell madly in love with her.
science89.bsky.social23Love all her music but this is amazing youtube.com/playlist?lis...
Sasswillynilly4Happy birthday! She opened for the Eagles at the King Dome in Seattle. It was mine and my brother's first concert. I was 11 and he was 10. I never would have let my kids do that at that age ...but what a great experience! She's fabulous!
CherieAnne3Different Drum, but you knew I’d say that!

sandywb14.bsky.social2Her early music is the soundtrack of my life. Happy Birthday to a gifted, compassionate woman.
bookswain.bsky.social2When I was young my dad took us to see The Pirates of Penzance in NYC. Linda Ronstadt was Mabel. Kevin Kline was the pirate king.
NDNchick4Decency2I adore her. My bff he said I look just like her and wanted me to sing. But all I could do was look like her lol. I hate what’s she’s been through & going through with her health.

Philip Lombard34The last notes of blue bayou are absolutely stunning!
Michael A West31While stationed overseas as a young sailor, her music (on a boom-box cassette player) helped keep me sane during the deployments.
teemactoo7.bsky.social25If you haven’t seen the documentary on her, please watch. It’s fantastic!! “Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of my Voice”
Gary Andover25I've had a crush on Linda ever since she sang with the Stone Poneys.
Nat Turner’s Slave Rebellion21What an incredible artist. Her voice is a spiritual experience.
cvdgoldens.bsky.social17I don't have solid proof (it's probably out there somewhere), but I'd bet she also has the most albums in different genres as well. Rock, country rock, country, operetta, Spanish language, etc.etc. IMO, no one has a voice like Linda Ronstadt.
Wishing a Happy 80th Birthday to my favorite member of the 1970s #Dodgers, Linda Ronstadt!
Maxine Breuer5My late husband had a full-on crush on Linda Ronstadt. That did not make me jealous, not even a little bit. We were full agreement on this lady's remarkable talent. Happy Birthday, Linda!
GIGGLES7084HBD Linda and I’m sorry you are suffering from Parkinson’s.
Roberttheresister: Trumpinocchio the low IQ putin puppet3At the end of October of 1980 in Laramie, Wy I saw Linda perform. I fell in love with her when she sang Blue Bayou. She had glitter on her lips and her voice soared like an angel. I’ll never forget that magical performance.
Sheena Queen of the Jungle 🇲🇽🇨🇦🇺🇦🇬🇱2It's hard to believe that's she's 80. I saw her perform at a little hippy bar between Albuquerque and Santa Fe before she was famous. You could tell that she was going to make it big.
Cousin Nubbin2Some of America's Sweethearts persevere. Linda duets with James Taylor, Emmy Lou and Dolly too, Jagger, Chuck Berry, Wendy Waldman, and of course Kermit The Frog as well. Catch it all: pop, country, mariachi, rock, broadway, standards. Linda tribute show at 10pm Eastern (UTC-4:00) Thurs 7/16 at:
Tedejr5286472Okay, I will confess, I had such a crush on her. She was a beautiful woman. She still is, IMHO. And on top of that, she has a helluva good voice. It's a shame how her medical condition has affected her voice.
Happy 80th birthday to the beautiful legend, Linda Ronstadt🥳🎈🎉 #lindaronstadt
Incommunicado (anti 🧊for DHS)3NFW she's 80. That'd make me .... wait.
armchairprez2Her versatility is what always stood out to me. That voice stood out and could carry any genre she chose to conquer.
Retiredlawyer2Undergrad talking w/lit prof, i said something about LRonstadt; he replied w/anger, "who does she think she is singing LA Boehme". Looking at a prof I liked, said, "she's just singing. What is your prob w/that?"
Rob Howland2Lovely Linda was my first celebrity crush. She has a lovely voice. Nobody has a voice like her.
Richard J Torres2What an incredibly talented and beautiful human being. Hope she has a great birthday
Celtic Roadrunner1I’ve been a solid fan since around 1974.
“Canciones” is one of her best. But even after all the money Linda made for her label, they hated the idea of a Spanish-language album. “You owe me this,” she said. “Canciones” was for years “the biggest-selling non-English language album in US history, going double platinum and earning a Grammy” ✨
Rebecca G. Aguilar11One of my mother's favorite albums to listen to was Linda Ronstadt's Canciones de Mi Padre. Authentic, nostalgic songs.
heinous-anus.bsky.social7This is the soundtrack of my childhood. My father used to listen to this at least once every few weeks on my way to school. Nostalgia 🎶
Julia Is Waving, Not Drowning5it is a spectacularly beautiful album and I appreciate it more and more as I get older
tui-na.bsky.social3Love that album. Just thinking of her voice makes the hair on my neck stand up.
Lebanexican3I grew up with that album
Chris Williams1I wish more people would discover her wonderful performance in "The Pirates of Penzance". Some of her most beautiful singing, and she was absolutely adorable as Mabel.
Happy 80th Birthday to the divine Linda Ronstadt, who could sing anything and everything and proved it time and again. Like that time she decided to try operetta and headlined a hit revival of The Pirates of Penzance (which had its first preview in Central Park on this date in 1980)
Kevin Daly9Fun fact: Joe Papp offered her the role if she wanted it, and she told him, "No, I have to audition" and did.
jfd8.bsky.social3That production looked like bottled magic and I would give an appendage to go back in time and see her do it live. This is a grainier capture of her debut. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ud5...
jondmaas.bsky.social2I saw it 3 times!
Howard Ashman stan account2She was iconic when she sang "Somewhere Out There" from An American Tail And when she guested on the Mr. Plow episode of the Simpsons And when her song "Long, Long Time" was pivotal to the Bill and Frank episode of TLOU But I'm not gonna lie, Pirates of Penzance is when I fell in love
Aimee2The filmed version was a huge hit at my house when my brother and I were kids - it might be the movie I've watched the most times in my life!
Christopher James Egan1Patricia Rutledge said she had "such fun" at the Delacorte that Summer.
