Ronnie was already in her 40s when she recorded this and still was great looking. The song was also a decent one and deserved more success than it had.
It's shocking that this come back album did not chart and become a success for Ronnie. At least her fans, such as myself, shall be forever grateful for her beautiful voice and talent.
Ronnie lights up the dark. This video is as good as the day it was shot, maybe even better when you shuffle it between a lot of the trash on the market today. Kudos Ronnie, your talent and work ethic are wonderful.
I really like some of her solo song like It's a heartache, Try some Buy some, Love on a Rooftop and Let your feelings show. I read her autobiography. She endured a lot of personal and professions mishaps. Unique voice and talent
This was a great album. Who Can Sleep should have #1 with a bullet. Another great song on this album was Love On the Rooftop which Cher also sang on her Heart of Stone album as well.
It wasn't a weave -- that was her real hair. Even back in the '60's when the Ronettes wore the beehive hairstyle, it was all their own hair. Ronnie, her sister, Estelle, and their cousin, Nedra were all blessed with lovely, thick hair. Ronnie explained in her book their hairstyle back then was achieved with teasing, lots and lots of hairspray, and strategically placed hairpins!
Totaly agree. I remember the rock stations in New York and even the oldies station there that was still playing currents at that time giving the song a few spins. Ronnie was beyond gorgeous back then. Can't believe it was 25 years ago.
Miss Ronnie Spector... I keep falling on my face, I think it's because I keep stepping on my tounge...do you think you could turn down your hotness dial, just a lot? Lol 😂😅
I think this was like a come back song for Ronnie. Too bad she didn't have the same success as Tina Turner who also made a come back in her 40s, but Tina had BIG names behind her supporting her like Mick Jagger (who I really believe slept with Tina) and David Bowie. Cher and a few other contemporaries should have had Ronnie open for them and helped her with her come back. I wonder if Ronnie is an Easter Star. Most, if not all, successful singers are Freemasons and Eastern Stars.
Yes, and both of them look like black women. My aunts on my dad side look just like Ronnie and have the same exact features and they're just light skinned black women.
Ronnie Spector is Irish, african Anerican and Native American Cherokee. Her father was Irish. I read her book. Her cousin Nedra Talley was African American and Puerto Rican
Some black women have naturally long hair. Some women in my family have naturally long hair like Ronnies. Look around on youtube, there are a lot of black women with long hair giving advice on how to take care of their hair. Do a search here on youtube for a youtuber named LeobodyC5---Her hair is to her waist and it's all real.
Ronnie’s father was Irish. Her mother was Black and Cherokee. So she is 1/3 white, 1/3 Black, 1/3 Native American Cherokee. Most Nativer American women have shiny black hair. By being part Black and Cherokee she really had a thick head of hair.
the lyrics suck, the part when money says cuz you look so sweet... really he was just trying to get finished.. lol .. Ronnie ws cute and really she needed a song to make her stand on fire
Worn out that's all, gee she wAs cute back in the day but as she got older, tried looking,diana ross aged well but Ronnie she looked worn out and stiff
unfortunately not all of us or singers can age as gracefully as Ms. Ross. or use the $$$ she has to keep the illusion going. An no DIVA. an not to mention knifing her back up signers to get ahead. While sleeping her way to the top.
I recorded Ronnie’s vocal on this cut at 39th Street Music, NYC. :)
RIP Ronnie Spector and Eddie Money. Finally reunited in rock and soul heaven.
This video got a lot of play on MTV during the summer of 1987. I'll never know why it wasn't a hit.
Ronnie was already in her 40s when she recorded this and still was great looking. The song was also a decent one and deserved more success than it had.
Even the 80s production can't harm the godess
This appears to have been incorrectly cropped, with the top of heads cut off.
It's shocking that this come back album did not chart and become a success for Ronnie. At least her fans, such as myself, shall be forever grateful for her beautiful voice and talent.
Felt the same way, loved this whole album.
All her songs were hits in my eyes. Beautiful lady with a one of a kind beautiful voice,
RIP Ronnie. 🪦🙏🏼🕊⭐️💔
Her voice was so unique...strong and a sultry vibrato
RIP Ronnie
Another underappreciated deep cut from 1987! Ronnie is just beyond adorable here - such fun energy and so many Looks. What a legend.
Should have been a big hit. Great song and video and Ronnie sounds and looks spectacular.
Ronnie and Eddie Money together were just an INCREDIBLE combination! Sadly, we never got a duet album from them.
RIP Ronnie Spector
and Eddie Money .. too 😢
Rip, what an angel, found this song today…cool Eddie Money did this with her!
Ronnie lights up the dark. This video is as good as the day it was shot, maybe even better when you shuffle it between a lot of the trash on the market today. Kudos Ronnie, your talent and work ethic are wonderful.
First Bad Ass Rock n Roll Girl,,Woman
I really like some of her solo song like It's a heartache, Try some Buy some, Love on a Rooftop and Let your feelings show. I read her autobiography. She endured a lot of personal and professions mishaps. Unique voice and talent
And "Say goodbye to Hollywood" should have charted big.
This was a great album. Who Can Sleep should have #1 with a bullet. Another great song on this album was Love On the Rooftop which Cher also sang on her Heart of Stone album as well.

How come it doesn’t look real when you look at their forehead, the hair looks to shiny
@@sebziez Hair IS shiny if you use a good shampoo.
@@jennifersenn yea but it’s oddly shiny, if it was their real hair, impressive. But most women did wear wigs in the 60s
Don't care though. She was fire 🔥

Has anyone been able to find Ronnie's music video for "Love on a Rooftop"? I read somewhere that she made a video for that single.
I've been on the search for 2 years myself and i haven't found a trace of it, i think Columbia gave up on Ronnie after the first single
Fantastic !!!
Happy 74th Birthday Ronnie!
Um..was part of this video inspired by elvis Presley jail house rock at 1:35 loos like it
Ronnie Spector is one of the Hottest women of rock and roll
Ill remember you Ronnie
Miss Ronnie Spector...
I keep falling on my face, I think it's because I keep stepping on my tounge...do you think you could turn down your hotness dial, just a lot? Lol 😂😅
You can tell her and Diana Ross were from the same era, they have a style that is lacking today

1987

@blackwerx RONNIE TO ME IS A LIL STALE...... WITH THAT DIANA ROSS WEAVE
Hair
Yes, and both of them look like black women. My aunts on my dad side look just like Ronnie and have the same exact features and they're just light skinned black women.
Ronnie Spector is Irish, african Anerican and Native American Cherokee. Her father was Irish. I read her book. Her cousin Nedra Talley was African American and Puerto Rican
Who care what the color of the ronettet skin is they are great who ever was that morning said can't sing she drunk can you do any better?

She’s White(Irish, Black, and Cherokee. I read her book.
the lyrics suck, the part when money says cuz you look so sweet... really he was just trying to get finished.. lol .. Ronnie ws cute and really she needed a song to make her stand on fire
Who Can Sleep? I can after hearing this uninspired song. Ronnie does her best to sell it but she needed better material.
she sings better than most but not as good as some
Worn out that's all, gee she wAs cute back in the day but as she got older, tried looking,diana ross aged well but Ronnie she looked worn out and stiff
