I was driving, listening time Sirius, when this came on!🙂 I forgot how much I loved it and Linda's voice! 😃

If Ronstadt wanted to Rock - she rocked. If she wanted to Roll she rolled. She sang what she wanted, when she wanted. Viva Linda and that voice. Oh my lord, that voice.

About a year prior to MTV, I use to watch this on Friday Night Videos. I was a teenage boy, it brings back memories. Thanks for uploading.❤❤

Linda's range and power of her voice is one of a kind. The best female singer in music history.

The eyes at the end speaks loud n clear.Thats Linda

[veronical]

That voice - remarkable- more now than ever. Reissue the beloved Ronstadt kiss-off to that rockin lifestyle she helped create. -"Mad Love" indeed!

[davida]

Linda Ronstadt raised the bar on versatility and singing quality. Lots of amazing hits. She easily meets the true definition of amazing!

Ronstadt sayin' "here you go - some hard, fast, punky, new wave rock and roll vocals - no sweat, now I'm off to do operetta or anything else I damn well feel like singing" - Gotta luv her! Great, pure vocalists.

This clip took my breath away when I first saw it in 1980 - a live, single-take performance, wildly electric - and it still does. Ms. Ronstadt hits every note, and her vocal performance captures the ironic mood perfectly. A true artist, able to move through different genres with verve and precision. This one moment has stuck with me over the years like no other.

This is a lost classic, never hear it on radio or seen on tv, ❤

[uricbonser]

Quite literally, this woman is the voice of my generation !! What an awesome sound !!

[marcvalens]

She is Mexican and German. Saw her in cancun 1998. I stayed on 15th floor holiday inn while she sang in the main floor terrace with mariachi playing. WOW how Awesome!!

[YandTIII]

Country, western, folk, pop, blues, Broadway, rock etc....Her versatility was truly outstanding!

[beauxlee]

SLAMMING - all in. Within months of this she was singing Pirates of Penzance. Just a marvelous pure natural voice. Rare instrument of power and beauty.

[gogodelux]

Rock and Roll Ronstadt. No sweat from an avalanche of a voice. MAD LOVE, a great album, most misunderstood. Gal just wanted to wrap her voice around the best tunes - genre be damned!

[DJDiscoCat]

Linda was always rock and roll, remember she worked with the guys who became the Eagles. I was super excited to hear that she was into new wave and this single had her really shouting! Never forget what she was capable of, a vocal range between the understated and restrained to the full throated rawness she displays here. She truly is an American icon.
