First TIme Hearing Linda Ronstadt - "Long Long Time"

Added: 2026-05-24

[00:00:00]Hello, welcome back to my channel. My name is Erica and today I'm going to listen to Linda Ronstadt. Now, the reason I said her name incorrectly is cuz it's clearly a German word. It says it you would say Ronstadt and you'd pronounce the D and the T.

[00:00:15]Well, they'd probably have a Yeah, it'd probably be Ronstadt.

[00:00:20]Okay, Stadt. But no, it's not pronounced like that apparently. It's pronounced Ronstadt.

[00:00:26]But I when I see that name, I just see Stadt and it makes me want to pronounce all that.

[00:00:32]And I and Ronstadt English Ronstadt cuz in German if it's ST it's Sta, okay?

[00:00:39]And it's you pronounce the D and the T.

[00:00:43]Anyway, that's why I mispronounced it when I first saw it. I was like, "Oh, she's clearly German, right?" But no, apparently not. Someone just said, "Thank you, Erica. Enjoy."

[00:00:53]And I got I got a tip, so I'm excited. I listened to her do one other thing in the '90s and I was like, "Oh, that's interesting.

[00:01:01]Let's listen to this.

[00:01:06]>> [music] [singing] >> Very pretty voice.

[00:01:27]>> [music] [singing] [singing] [music] >> Pretty.

[00:01:44]>> [singing] [music] [singing] >> I like her belt. It's good.

[00:02:02]>> [singing] [singing] [music] >> Aw, I've done everything to make you mine.

[00:02:12]>> [singing] [music] [singing] >> Aw, that's a sweet phrase.

[00:02:23]Nice [music] string interlude in between.

[00:02:31]>> [music] [singing] [music] [singing] [singing] [music] [singing] [music] >> Aw.

[00:03:07]>> [music and singing] [singing] [singing] [music] [singing] [music] >> Long [singing] long time. I like that end of phrase.

[00:03:39]>> [music] [music] [singing] [music] [singing] [music] [singing] [singing] [music] [singing] >> I like it a lot.

[00:04:22]>> [singing] [singing] [music] [singing] [singing and music] [music] >> Long [singing] long time.

[00:05:01]>> [singing] [music] [singing] [music] [music] >> All right. I really like that song a lot. It's really really really really beautiful.

[00:05:41]For a long [singing] long time. But it sounds so pretty because there's like a raised sharp in that part that's like >> [singing] >> That's the um the harmonic minor going ascending.

[00:06:00]>> [singing] >> You get this um leading tone that really makes it drive upward for a long long time.

[00:06:14]>> [singing] >> That phrase. For a long long time.

[00:06:27]Um hello, regarding my stream quality. I just made an adjustment, so I don't know if that will help.

[00:06:35]But I'm I lowered my kilobits per second. So, I don't know if that helps.

[00:06:40]But I just checked my upload speed and I'm at 200 megabits per second. So, there shouldn't be any problem. Like I'm downloading so fast and I'm uploading.

[00:06:50]So, yeah. I did not yawn I did not yawn. I liked it a lot. I thought it was really pretty. Her voice is great. She looks really pretty here, too, cuz when I saw her she was older already.

[00:07:01]Um here she just looks really nice and I like the long gown. I think it's nice to perform in a long gown. I think it's very classy.

[00:07:09]I think it's a nice and she just stands there.

[00:07:12]Um she just stands there and very calm.

[00:07:19]So, yeah.

[00:07:22]I like it. I mean, I've nothing bad to say. I think it was like a very beautiful song, better than most of the songs today. I mean, have you heard the like Gen Z AI slop? It's so bad. So many of the artists today, oh my god. Like I can't even. I'm like, "What are we even listening to, guys?" Like I can't. Like I literally can't. So, I'm always shocked by sometimes the lack of quality in the pop music these days. It's actually quite alarming. And then when you hear like this which is like a general pop ballad that was popular then, you're like, "That's a good song." And then the fact that it's orchestrated with the strings.

[00:08:01]So, I don't know. I think it's very good.

[00:08:05]Now, what's going on with the chat?

[00:08:07]Every Erica live video stops after 30 to 40 minutes for me. That's weird. And then do you restart it?

[00:08:13]That's what interesting.

[00:08:15]She's usually Debbie Downers. I don't know. Some people are having no trouble with the stream and some people are having trouble.

[00:08:21]I mean, the only thing is like if it's me, I could like restart my computer.

[00:08:25]It's just that my software tells me I'm broadcasting at a good rate and YouTube's even telling me that my stream is healthy, too. So, I don't know if it's like a YouTube thing.

[00:08:36]I don't know if it's cuz it's trying to ad run ads or something, you know? I don't know.

[00:08:41]So, it's just annoying, but I apologize for that. But yes, for the Linda Rod Stadt I want to say Rod Stadt cuz that's just the German spelling. Um but let's mark this off with my new automation called I check mark and it turns green. Oh, I love that so much.

[00:08:58]Thanks for sending that request. Um what else is good for Linda Ronstadt? Like Sorry, Ronstadt. What else is good for her? Like what other songs did she do that are enjoyable and well remembered and that are worth listening to? I'm always curious about stuff like that.

[00:09:16]So, thank you for sending that over.
