Normally I would give a thumbs up and move on but this astounded me. You did a phenomenal job capturing all the emotions in this song. I saw Linda in concert in the '70's. Thank you for putting yourself out there.
You started off amazing but then you went all America Idol With the rifts and rolls Some Songs were perfect the first time. You could be great but to try and “improve” on Linda ruined this for me It was as if you were fighting to get back to some point
@@engine22emt I'm sure you are aware that Linda Ronstadt did a cover of Smokey Robinson's Tracks of my Tears. Linda didn't sing it exactly the same as Smokey but put her own twists and turns on it and both renditions have become classics. If you don't appreciate someone else's interpretation, just don't like it and move on. You were not her targeted audience, and hopefully we'll never hear from you again.
hello from Kazakhstan🇰🇿. Unfortunately, I found out about Linda after the series "The Last of Us". Your cover is the best, especially the climax.👏👏👏👏💐💐💐
Listening to your rendition is a true blessing: raw power, clarity, sensibility and endurance, you've got it all, alongside a Great piano accompainment.
I almost didn't listen to this because, no one, and I mean NO ONE can cover Linda. To try is futile. But you did better than I expected and better than anyone else I've heard try. Good job.
Beautiful rendition of a classic love song, Yes it's a song of unrequited love, but a love song nonetheless. I love your twists. Subtle, but perfect. Such raw emotion there at the crescendo. Bravo Sandy. I'm glad I stumbled across you.
I had just looked up this song to hear a piano tutorial and found Sandy Bailey singing. I was completely astounded by just how amazing you sounded. Your voice is incredible. I am surprised you are not a house hold name. Very glad I found this rendition. My goodness, you're so talented!!!!!!
Fantastic performance!!! Your voice is beautiful and you have nailed this song. The dynamics and vocal attacks are wonderful. Linda never had to accompany herself on piano - you do it really well. Thank you for recording and sharing. I'm a fan.
She did an amazing job singing this song. Not just the words...the emotion so clearly came through and that is what this song needs, if not demands, for an exceptional performance!
Sadly the only discovered this classic song through phenomenal last of us tv series (especially episode 3) I've watched many covers of this song since then. Your version is easily is the best, amazing range! Keep up the good work
*~ Sandy, you have such a beautiful voice w/colors and resonance (Your voice reminds me of Juice Newton, who I love!). I grew up in the 1960s - 1970s, and Linda Ronstadt is one of my absolute favorite singers, one of the Greats. Love and Best Wishes ~*
@@SandyBaileyMusic As someone who studied voice for many years, I would respectfully add that you would need more diaphragmatic support for that high note (on "TRY and make you mine"). This song seems to be taking off, and I see it is now #1 on the Rock digital chart (from Wikipedia). Again, your voice is beautiful! BEST WISHES ~*
Lyrics Love will abide Take things in stride Sounds like good advice But there's no one at my side And time washes clean love's wounds unseen That's what someone told me But I don't know what it means 'Cause I've done everything I know To try and make you mine And I think I'm gonna love you For a long long time Caught in my fears Blinking back the tears I can't say you hurt me When you never let me near And I never drew one response from you All the while you fell all over girls you never knew 'Cause I've done everything I know To try and make you mine And I think it's gonna hurt me For a long long time Wait for the day you'll go away Knowing that you warned me Of the price I'd have to pay And life's full of flaws Who knows the cause? Living in the memory of a love that never was 'Cause I've done everything I know To try and change your mind And I think I'm gonna miss you For a long long time 'Cause I've done everything I know To try and make you mine And I think I'm gonna love you For a long long time
I've loved this song since I first heard Linda's rendition a long (long) time ago. I haven't heard anyone cover it as well as this. You've captured the feeling and meaning of the original without trying to imitate Linda. Bravo!
Nice cover. Not easy covering arguably the best female voice ever. Check out some of her other songs as she performed the widest range of genres ever: Motown, Country, Pop, Rock, 40s Torch/Standards, Broadway, Adult Contemporary, Folk, Traditional Mexican/Spanish... I can't help noticing some resemblence to her. If someone is thinking of making a biopic (non-documentary) they should look you up. With the success of Rocketman and Bohemian Rhapsody, I think it could happen.
Had to listen again! You put the heartache in this even more than Linda! I saw her do this song on TV sometime around 1969, or '70, barefoot in a long gown. I was smitten at the age of 20! I loved her from afar for a Long, Long Time.
Oh you nailed it, Sandy! Well done. Deceptively challenging vocal (Linda R. makes it seem effortless). D, E, F#m etc? Woud love to give this a go on piano.
Wow that is a big voice for sure and it looks like there's even more in the tank. Thank you very much. Lovely. You were inside it and you nailed the emotion and the meaning head on.
Wow, really amazing cover, you have an incredibly powerful voice with a beautiful tone. Your own distinctive vocal style definitely shines through here, but there were also moments that were evocative of Linda Ronstadt at her finest, as she sounded in the 1970s. Anyway, this is one of the best covers I've heard on RUclips.
Normally I would give a thumbs up and move on but this astounded me. You did a phenomenal job capturing all the emotions in this song. I saw Linda in concert in the '70's. Thank you for putting yourself out there.
Wow! Thank you for the compliment
You saw Linda in the 70's?!!!! Wow!!!
You started off amazing but then you went all America Idol
With the rifts and rolls
Some
Songs were perfect the first time.
You could be great but to try and “improve” on Linda ruined this for me
It was as if you were fighting to get back to some point

Wow I never knew any one could pull this song out of my heart and put it back like Linda did ❤
It´s not Linda but.. what a beauty! Thank you Sandy (for not hiding your talent) you make the day, more....colorful.
Wow! There are so many bad covers of this LR classic online.
But this sure ain't one of them!
Great voice, great emotion, nuance. 💜 Bravo!
hello from Kazakhstan🇰🇿. Unfortunately, I found out about Linda after the series "The Last of Us". Your cover is the best, especially the climax.👏👏👏👏💐💐💐
So happy you enjoy it!

Holy smokes. That was fantastic!

Rabid Linda Ronstadt fan. Outstanding job.
Thank you. So glad you like it!

I’ve watched / listened to a lot of these covers. This is a hard song to pay justice to Linda on. You did a phenomenal job. Thank you for this!!
I had just looked up this song to hear a piano tutorial and found Sandy Bailey singing. I was completely astounded by just how amazing you sounded. Your voice is incredible. I am surprised you are not a house hold name. Very glad I found this rendition. My goodness, you're so talented!!!!!!
Bravo! I hope Linda gets to hear your outstanding version of her iconic song.
Thank you Bob
Exquisitely beautiful!!
Wow! Bravo.....Linda will be smiling. A great tribute.
Thank you very much!
WOW This was breathtaking
I grew up with Linda, sounds like her voice is back. Just wonderful
Glad you enjoyed
At times I thought I was listening to Linda. Pure emotion in your voice. I’ve never heard a better cover. Thank you!
Best cover of this song I've ever heard
Wow thank you!
My dad who’s been gone 10 years. He loved Linda. And this Hits a bit hard tonight. Wow. Hello tears.
🤍
Wow! You sound the most like Linda Ronstadt of anyone I've heard cover this song. Beautiful!
Thanks so much!
Beautiful rendition of a gorgeous, emotional song. Thanks.
Stumbling across gems like you is why I love YT so much!
Fantastic performance!!! Your voice is beautiful and you have nailed this song. The dynamics and vocal attacks are wonderful. Linda never had to accompany herself on piano - you do it really well. Thank you for recording and sharing. I'm a fan.
Thank you so much!
Beautiful 🤍 I just missed someone who recommended this song
Big challenge to cover this iconic song. And you did it with power, grace and pathos. Great going!
Thank you very much for the compliment
That was wonderful. Gave me the chills. Just like when I hear Linda Rondstadt do it.
She did an amazing job singing this song. Not just the words...the emotion so clearly came through and that is what this song needs, if not demands, for an exceptional performance!
Thank you!
@@SandyBaileyMusic The thanks are all to you! Just a beautiful job! Thank YOU so very much!!
Best female cover that gives justice to the music, emotions, and original voice of this emo song, excellent rendition!
I really enjoyed this, a great version of this classic.....and love the retro telephone ;)
Probably one of the most heart wrenching and emotional lyrics ever. Beautiful cover. The scene with this song was powerful!
So glad you enjoyed it. I love this song
Sadly the only discovered this classic song through phenomenal last of us tv series (especially episode 3) I've watched many covers of this song since then. Your version is easily is the best, amazing range! Keep up the good work
Thanks so much Dan!
Through my tears you took me back to the one I never got near.
Just beautiful.
Thank you!!!
It was 👍😍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Hauntingly beautiful rendition 😢
You're version is my 2nd favorite... Linda will always be queen of this song, she's the best! 💯💯💯😘👌👌😘
That’s fair and correct. Thank you for the compliment!
Fantastic cover & powerful voice singing a beautiful Linda Ronstadt classic, thanks.
So Beautiful... You sing it with Linda's heart but most of all with your soul...
Bravo Sandy !
Much Love from France 💜💐💚
Lyrics
Love will abide
Take things in stride
Sounds like good advice
But there's no one at my side
And time washes clean love's wounds unseen
That's what someone told me
But I don't know what it means
'Cause I've done everything I know
To try and make you mine
And I think I'm gonna love you
For a long long time
Caught in my fears
Blinking back the tears
I can't say you hurt me
When you never let me near
And I never drew one response from you
All the while you fell all over girls you never knew
'Cause I've done everything I know
To try and make you mine
And I think it's gonna hurt me
For a long long time
Wait for the day you'll go away
Knowing that you warned me
Of the price I'd have to pay
And life's full of flaws
Who knows the cause?
Living in the memory of a love that never was
'Cause I've done everything I know
To try and change your mind
And I think I'm gonna miss you
For a long long time
'Cause I've done everything I know
To try and make you mine
And I think I'm gonna love you
For a long long time
Thank you!
Still awesome, every time I listen.
Просто хочется слушать бесконечно в Вашем исполнении) Спасибо Вам, что вы это делаете!🐦🌼🌼🌼🌼
Спасибо!
@@SandyBaileyMusic 💘🌷
Magnificent, simply magnificent. Both in voice and piano playing makes me want to learn how to play the piano.
Ronstadt passes her title to you -- stunning voice, great interpretation, nicely amended melody.
Wow, thank you!
Wow!!!!!!❤
