I can see completely avoiding such whackos as Eminem, Robert De Niro, Rosie O'Donnell, or others like that, but I have to admit that I like a lot of music that comes from sources who hold political and social views which are the exact opposite of mine. I also like the music of some singers who have bizarre personal tastes (like having a boyfriend like Governor Moonbeam).
In addition to physical problems, diseases like Parkinson's also have an effect on people's moods, and their ability to think normally, and distorted thinking and emotions can creep up on a person with that disease gradually. With all that in mind, I took a quick look through youtube to find some songs that Linda Ronstadt did that I personally like, and would like to share with others on here who also like some of Linda's music. Some of these are great old country songs, some are rock, some are big band songs, and some are even songs repurposed to sing to a baby, but I like all of them.
(For those of you who can't stand her, please just skip this post.)
Here are the youtube song links. Hope some of you like them too.
Well said. I don’t judge performers by their politics. I learned that a long time ago when my mother banned Chaplin movies from being watched at home. A great artist not allowed in our house!
Linda has a beautiful voice, made some great albums, and has been dealt a terrible hand with Parkinson’s. A truly evil disease. And for some to mention that she dared to get old and fat! What have they accomplished in their lives?
