myLot Discussions on Linda Ronstadt Vintage LP| Your Favorite Duets & Harmony | | Yesterday I was listening to the album "Trio" which features Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt, and Emmylou Harris singing together. To me, this is some of my favorite music -- beautiful voices lifted in harmony.When I was a kid, my favorite duets were sung by the Everly Brothers. They sang some gorgeous tear-jerking love songs like "Love Hurts."I think Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris are two of the best singers when it comes to singing harmony, and with almost anyone. Especially Linda Ronstadt singing on some of the JD Souther songs like "Faithless Love."What are some of your favorite artists and songs when it comes to harmonizing? | |
| | | RIP Kate McGarrigle | | Another music icon has passed. Kate McGarrigle (one half of the McGarrigle Sisters -[i]Heart Like a Wheel[/i]) has died at the age of 63, after a lengthy battle with a rare form of cancer. She and her sister Anna recorded 10 albums in French and English, and their songs have been covered by artists such as Linda Ronstadt, Billy Bragg and Emmylou Harris.
She was married for some time to Loudon Wainwright III -[i]Dead Skunk[/i] (in the Middle of the Road) and is the mother of Rufus Wainwright and Martha Wainwright, both of whom have followed in their parents' footsteps. | |
| | Dolly Parton wants to sue Howard Stern! | | Dolly Parton wants to sue Howard Stern, or rather, the Howard Stern show for using bits from one of her audio books last week so they sound like racist slurs and sexually graphic sound bites, commenting on people like Kenny Rogers, Linda Ronstadt, Burt Reynolds and Johnny Carson in a segment that aired on May 6. She says she's never been so shocked, hurt and humiliated in her life, and can't believe what Howard Stern has done to her, saying in a "blue million years" she would never say such vulgar things. But I guess the "Stern" show regularly uses altered clips from William Shatner, Oprah Winfrey and others... Do you think this is right, that the Howard Stern show should do this? Do you think Dolly should sue? Or just figure Stern does this, and no one would likely take it seriously? What do you think? (I can see it[u]both[/u] ways! But I don't think I'd like it if it was done to me, or if I was Dolly.) | |

| | Favorite Song | | What is your favorite song? Me, All My Life by Linda Ronstadt & Aaron Neville, song for my special someone. | |
| | U, Ur Dream, Ur Destination, and Your Life | | "Where you find yourself tomorrow is a function of the decisions and
actions you take today" -Akin A. AwolajaLike the song by Linda Ronstadt, "a dream is a wish that your heart
makes."
Like a song 4rm The Wallflowers "We Can Be Heroes Juz 1 Day" To lose a
dream is to die a little yourself. It means closing down the part of
you that can soar above the reality of your current life to see new and
exciting possibilities.It is important to talk about your dreams to your friends, best is to
write-down your dreams that will give you direction, a purpose to work
hard and a passion. It is also important to share your dreams with
people, who, you feel will be happy with your failure, doing that means you
will be more focused and will be carrying a little bit extra pressure. (If u feel yes)So..Can u Define U r Dream so Dat we can make
stepz 2 achive it!!!!!!!!Itz 4 all of us n 4rm all of us
"I, I wish we could swim
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together
We can beat them forever and ever
We can be heroes, just for one day
We can be heroes
We can be heroes
We can be heroes
We can be... | |
