I have a whole lotta love for the way Patty sang that song! I always thought Patty was so much more interesting than Madonna! I would have encouraged her to front a really good Rock and Roll band or maybe sing with the Eagles.
this is one the very few times, when I see a pro band being so bad and ruining the song for the singer. Yes, it is old and back in them days music was done slightly differently BUT did they not hear that this come no where near close to the original in terms of precision and sound?
Most people don’t know this but EVH offered HER the Van Halen gig after David Lee Roth left. She turned it down because the band was too much into partying at the time. But then Hagar got the next phone call.
I'm thinking this is what Eddie VH heard all along...perfect match...she is that perfect mix of throaty and melodic...little bit of raspy...Sammy who ? Lol gimme some more Patty...possibly had a relationship with her too...but who cares...Sonny Cher that shat man!
I remember seeing this live... Great Rock and Roll voice for the ages ! Dave is justifiably smitten And impressed... Wish she recorded this...Did she ?❤
I saw this when it first aired. No one knew she had this in her. I sat there watching, absolutely floored by what I was hearing. To this day, it's the best musical performance I've ever seen on TV. I wish I could meet her, just to shake her hand and thank her for this.
I remembered being blown away by this when I watched it on TV back when it aired, & I thought of it & looked it up to see if it was as good as I remembered. Absolutely stellar! Aside from the original, it's the best I've ever heard that song sung.
I had this biggest crush on Patti back in 80's i was like 12 or 13 when she hit MTV. It was her voice thhat git me first but she was so cute. I hid my crush from everyone cause i was a metal guy and wouldn't admit i listened to her at home a watched her do her little moves, she was an awesome original and just as important as groundbreaking for women singers in Rock N Roll as Pat Benatar, Madonna, in th
How’s when the music calmed and Patti sung waaayyy down Inside,, honey you need love. That’s the moment for me. It’s like listening to a Paul Rodgers live when there’s that moment that just takes you to another place. Patti unbelievable Smyth, my gawd girl those pipes 👌 even her speaking voice was sexy. What a little powerhouse and sexy as hell.
WOW SHE HAS A GREAT ROCK AND ROLL VOICE
In the next segment, Letterman said to Schaffer, "We should do a Zeppelin song." Paul said, "How about 'Squeeze My Lemon'?"

She was better than almost all of them. Linda Ronstadt is the spoiler...
Too bad that she didn't have better instrumental support, isn't it? I would've liked to have heard her with Van Halen backing...

Patty killed it.... The band killed something too. Not sure what tho
WOW! I’m a Zeppelin fan and Mrs. John McEnroe kicked ass on a Zep song!
WOW! No wonder EVH offered her DLR’s job! Anyone know if she ever did any VH covers?
That was AMAZING! That woman can lay it down!!!

She deserves a band that's as good as she is. No offense.

Patty's amazing!
Very good cover.
Wow What a Babe !! Awesome John Bonham Rocks
WHEW! That's a voice that will melt a man from the inside out. Magnificent lady that Patty Smyth! Sizzlin' vocals!
The only one that could do it better is Anne Wilson /but I have to say that's a good close 2nd by Patty
She killed it
3:50 like she's on skates!
I think she went the wrong direction I would have loved to hear her voice in a rock context instead of pop songs
Patti would have killed in Van Halen. She told the story about when Eddie asked her. She turned him down. What could have been.
That was not Eddie's story.
This has to be the best cover of this song ever done? 😎👍🏆
Eddie Van Halen was dead-on correct when he tried to get Smythe to front VH post-DLR. Can you imagine it? She would have killed in that lineup.
Yes he was. He was indeed. 👍🤘
Completely...dude new what he was looking for...strength with a rasp too plus looked like a Van Halen too lol

For sure mrs. Smyth was/is more than just new wave/pop rock singer.
Best most under appreciated female artist ever
Always one of my favorite voices. Amazing!
Will’s bass is so fat in this mix!
Smokin!
I wanna wake up next to that voice.
She was asked to join VanHalen after Mr Roth's 1st bye bye...
Patty Smyth's performances invariably bring tears to my eyes! Pure vocal magnificence.
holy crap she killed it.
She could have been Van Halen’s lead singer. Damn.
2022.. Still one of the best live TV performances I've ever seen. Girl got pipes!
I could watch / listen to this daily …
She is always amazing
Awesome!
