LINDA RONSTADT I Can't Let Go 

このアルバムの中で大好きな曲です！

One of her best songs...Right behind Different Drum...The best female singer of all time!

Mad Love- my favorite Linda album. You're right- there is only one Linda!!

The greatest most versatile female vocalist of her generation.

Linda always chose her songs well, this song and Elvis Costello's "Girl Talk" were perfect for her voice.

Nicolette Larson on backing vocals sounds great

And great backup vocals by, I believe, Nicolette Larson (RIP).

My favorite track from that album. Not to mention she was so beautiful it caused eye pain!

God..Do I love her singing

I remember being in 7th grade in 1967 when I first heard Linda Ronstadt sing then grew up loving her songs and voice. ‘I Can’t Let Go’ from the Summer of 1980 continued the adoration of this great musical woman. God Bless Linda Ronstadt!

Two minutes and 41 seconds of brilliance.

I'll never forget buying this album and listening to it over and over. This song in particular and Hurt So Bad helped me so much as my heart was hurting and confused over a broken relationship. Thank you Linda, for your music and incredible voice/talent.

One of her best songs ever

This is the most awesome song on this recording, methinks.

I agree that despite not being so "successful" this was the best track on the album

Really Great Backing Vocals

Love the vocals on this one. I wore the grooves off this song.

Forgive me Linda, But i WILL ALWAYS you1

Great!!! The best!!!! ...no more words Linda perfect singer

Glorious pipes. Clear, powerful and tender. Linda was special - we owe her far more respect.

Linda, I love very much, You are very beautiful! Wow! we are all getting old!

Listened to "Mad Love" today. Just found out the great Rosemary Butler was singing backup vocals. Linda always got the best talent to work with her. Fantastic song!

This was such a well produced song and sounded great on the radio, have no idea why it wasn't a number 1 song, she sang this effortlessly.

I love this song!!! I remember hearing a radio Dj report that Linda had made the statement that she felt that Annie Lennox was the finest female vocalist in her opinion ever This surprised me when I heard that because Linda is better and must not be aware of how that statement would be more suited for herself No offense to Annie Lennox but Linda is the real deal!!! Any doubters of that need only listen to "Hurt so bad" Now that's a.masterpiece

There are “Springsteenesque” tones. I think it’s possible that Linda could be the greatest female singer of all time.

Linda, You will always be the most beautiful woman, ever!

My new kick. Loved her

I saw her in concert in 1980. Very powerful voice!

She sings other people's songs very well. Rock and Roll HOF my ass.

Linda Ronstadt is one of my favorite artists-Too bad her magnificent voice has been silenced by Parkinson's disease.

Lost 80s hit!!! I forgot how much I love this track!

modesty at finest...gorgeous linda...beautiful voice

I like this rendition from Linda , great song !!!!

My God, she was so beautiful. Yeah, I was a teen when she came on the scene and it was her and Olivia Newton John I crushed on.

Outstanding!!!

I was unaware of this version...of course the Hollies is just blissed out candy to the ears...but Linda's version is equally deicious!

Sounds ok to me. Maybe should release it again.

She was great! I saw her at Blossom in Cleveland several times..

This song is so Fleetwood Mac Tusk! Christine lead, Stevie on those howling harmonies, Mic and John doing what they do, Lindsey layering guitar genius... mmm!

I have all your lovely songs on vinyl I will always be a loving fan!

Every time I hear this song I can't help but think of The Darling Buds. I now know where they got their influences from: The Hollies!

Justa natural voice

Like I said in other public comments about Linda Ronstadt she is one of the greatest hit producers whether she wrote it or took a good song and made it a great one which she did quite well beautiful voice and a cool glass of water all in one

Linda if you should ever see this, I was in high school when you were performing, and I was madly in love with your music. I found a cover group that gives your music a solid tribute. Look up Foxes and Fossils, and you will not be disappointed in how they represent your greatness.

When every other guy had the Farah Fawcet poster in thier room, I had Linda!

Yowza! Wall to wall, multi-tracked Lindas! My idea of heaven.

gorgeous Linda. I remember her singing the anthem wen the Dodger's were in the W.S.

Another brilliant song by Chip Taylor.

this song went to #31 on the pop charts in 1980!!!

You have the most beautiful eyes! Linda!

In my Ronstadt playlist with the original by Evie Sands and the Hollies' version. Thanks for the upload!

I heard this the other day on the radio and could not remember where I heard this before who the singer was. I searched over and over and still couldn’t find the title, woke up this morning and thought that sounded like Linda Ronstadt, I was right, and here I am. I got this in 1980 from Columbia house tapes like 10 for 1 cent then had to buy a few more. haha

I remember seeing Linda perform this on The Midnight Special. The camera showed 3 Lindas'. This was due to the 3 vocals. It was so awesome to see. Wish that recording was on YT.

Great quality recording. Nice volume. I know several music snobs in crap bands who hate this tune. I love it.

Hit by the Hollies in 63

This Song Went To Number 31 On The Billboard Hot-100 Chart In 1980.

I saw her during the tour in support of that album, great show!

LYRICS … I try and I try but I can't say goodbye Feel so bad baby, ooh, it hurts me When I think of how you love and desert me I'm the broken hearted toy you play with, baby You got me goin', I need you baby I can't let go, and I want you baby I gotta have you, you know And I can't let go Though I'm just one of your lovers And I know there are so many others You do something strange to me, baby, baby You got me goin', I need you baby I can't let go, and I want you baby I gotta have you, you know And I can't let go I try and I try but I can't say goodbye I know that it's wrong and I should be so strong But the thought of you gone makes me want to hold on You got me goin', I need you baby I can't let go, and I want you baby I gotta have you, you know And I can't let go You got me goin', I need you baby I can't let go, and I want you baby I gotta have you, you know I can't let go I can't let go I can't let go I can't let go I can't let go

A beautiful montage... Thank you!

She's F A B U L O U S!!!!!

Several fine pics of her, like at 0:45, 1:06. Such talent.

Ilovethissong

My band and me love this song and playing it !! Its is funn, upbeat Fun to sing and get into a good jam session with ! :)}}}

Damn, almost all (THIRTEEN total) of Linda Ronstadt's many Top 40 hits were cover tunes!

The boy scout outfit she wore drove me banans

Foxes and Fossils brought me here

love this track by the hollies since it came out . Lindas version is just as satisfying Jacki Ross did it originally

Three versions of this song, each better than the last: Evie Sands, Hollies, and Ronstadt. It really works well considering how simple it is.

Great remake of The Hollies hit ......

UNDA RONDSTADT ? SWEET !

LINDA! Do you even realize how beautiful you are!

came out the Summer i graduated high school. i played the grooves off this record.

OMG! You are so beautiful!

Nicolette Larson on backup.

Mad Love was her best album The best track was Hurt So Bad

My favorite as well!

Okay, how do I explain this, I love you, you are beautiful!

Linda Ronstadt is 75 years old now

Instant 18 again..

Great job man!

Is that the late Nicolette Larson howling away in the background doing the response to Linda's call? Or is that late Valerie Carter? I think it was one of the two though I don't think Peter Asher had Linda double tracked or triple tracked her voice on this one did she? does anybody know?

I didn't like this album when it came out. It was too new wave I thought at the time. But years later I think on further review it was better that I thought at the time.

Rendez-moi les Hollies, vite!

LISTEN THE VERSSION BYTHE HOLLIES FROM SIXTIES

Great version, although originally recorded by Evie Sands and then the Hollies.

The Foxes and Fossils cover of this song just blows thus away. And LR does a really good job. F And F lest guitar is magnitudes better than tutus verd ion.

Evie Sands easily did best version of this song

and listen to Evie Sands' version,too.

The Hollies' fabulous original didn't crack the top 30 either

As good as the Hollies.

Linda, how you doing dear? You're beautiful, but you needed to learned the hard way! about politicians! ;) (i.e. Jerry Brown)

Go listen to Foxes and Fossils version of this . Probably equal to or better than this .

RoseAnn, If you find this comment give me a call.

Then don't !

How gorgeous and talented is this lady?! Taylor Swift has similar charisma and talent imho...

Quelle gueularde. Elle croit qu'il suffit de brailler, de pousser sa voix. Aucune de ses interprétations n'a jamais égalé les originaux. Une chanteuse totalement dispensable.

Foxes and Fossils "Live" version with Maggie Adams and Sammi Purcell much better.
