@@WAL_DC-6B Like I said, the music is definitely not live, plus there are no mics. It may be a new recording for the show but it appears for filming it's just lip-synced to the playback.
This woman 100% needs a movie made of her life, such an amazing talent and such a strong survivor. This was definitely after she divorced that trash heap excuse of a husband she had...he must have just hated this because you knew he was watching. You could tell she knew it too, showin up and showing out...good for you girl!
@@tip0019 That was cousin Nedra, a talented beauty also. I bellieve sister Estellle died quite some time ago. Poor girl, I understand she developed schitzophrenia, ended up homeless, and died on the street. R.i.p Estrelle.
Ronnie was so beautiful and had such a voice!!!! So sorry she hooked up with Phil and went through the trauma she did. She will always be (our little Ronnie with that angel voice).
Amazing voice. She is the most beautiful woman in the world. When she sings I’m 14 years old again in the sixties. She stayed beautiful even as she got older. So natural. RIP Ronnie and Estelle. 😔💜
I was 14 then too. They were rockers but they were ladies. Never trashy or crude. Sometimes in gowns. Tasteful. My kinda women to this day. RIP Ronnie and Estelle.
Remember seeing this on TV, still madly in love with Ronnie as much as when I first saw her and the Ronettes. For me they will always be the Queens of the Girl Groups.
@Charlie Toole, Nor is there any remote resemblance to anything from today's music! Take W.A.P. for example! In fact, even hinting at any sort of juxtaposition as I just did sounds quite actually obscene and unreal! Have to apologize for even bringing that up apart from the fact that it simply is the reality of the situation. 🤔😧🙄
I was lucky enough to be a performer (the Dartells) on the same stage with Sha Na Na in 2007, but I sure wish that Ronnie had been there. I have loved her for over 45 years. She was and still is the best female singer (move over Diana) and cutest too, to come out of the '60's. She still brings tears to my eyes.
There were at least 20 people on that stage but once Veronica Bennett stepped on it and opened her mouth no one else existed.Good God almighty what talent and power.
@@bernardliu8526 Veronica or Ronica or Ronnie Specter is the lead singer. I think though I’m not sure that the one on Ronnie’s right side is Chip Fields Hurd and on Ronnie’s left is Donna Lynton although supposedly Chip and Donna were members from 1973-74, and this Sha Na Na episode is from 1978 and Chip and Donna look nothing like they looked in 1973-74, when they played at a Grand Ole Opery. Yes Country&Western music lovers loved the Ronettes too.
The Ronettes were the epitome of the girl group sound. Ronnie Spector was the first Queen of the rock n' roll sound. In my mind, she will always be the High Priestess of the Church of Rock n' Roll. I've no doubt Heaven has afforded a special place for her. This song was first recorded in 1963, the year I was born. Even today, this song still gives me goosebumps!
Love this. 55 years old. I grew up when "Sha Na Na" was on TV. I don't remember this but I have seen it a dozen times on U-TOOB. So fun !!! Miss the 70's 80's early 90's
I used to watch this show when I was a child in the 70s. Looking at it now I'm amazed how well they played the air guitar and other instruments! Sha Na Na
*Yes, there was someone before 'Regina Victoria' who had that 'sound' and his name was 'Frankie Lymon'* (Spector wanted 'that voice' so badly he auditioned hundreds...until he heard 'Ronnie' and knew she was 'it')
A fabulous, rare live clip of the legendary Ronnie Spector 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕 A haunting, soulful voice like no other ...both playful & sentimental , she gave lyrics a youthful & a mature quality... Rest In Peace 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Hay baby . I grew up on sha na na . Born in 69 . It was my favorite show . When Halloween came around . Guess who I dressed up as . Bowzer baby . Ronnie spector who sang " be my baby " my god . I didn't know about her passing . We love you baby . And I personally thank you for the beautiful music I'm starting to love all over again . Now that I'm getting older . Gracefully older . ( Ha ) Hmmmm . Makes you wonder if I get humor from Bowzer to .
Ted 1 fuck Phil Spector he might have had a talent but he treated her like shit locked in the house wouldn't let her out. he was a total asshole and he deserves to be in prison
I've always loved this song , such a beautiful voice Ronnie , beautiful lyrics and all beautiful ronettes. I cried watching TH-cam clips after your passing , but nothing will ever spoil that unique and wonderful sound, RIP Ronnie.
When music bought us smiles and not filled with hate like todays rap and hippity hip hop. This is pure talent no computer generated sounds, all true instraments and singing. That take talent
I LOVED Sha-Na-Na as a kid! I'm 52 now and my Dad and I used to watch this show together when it came on. Bowzer was his absolute favorite. Ronnie Spector was amazing and sexy too! I didn't notice her then... 😅
Geeze I remember listening on my small transistor radio pressed against my ear to hear this song...so much huge talent that was just considered everyday music.. we've been got nothing like it now.
You most definitely are missed Ronnie Spector. I know that you are up in Rock and Roll Heaven singing "Take Me Home Tonight" with Eddie Money. Condolences to your family,friends and fans. Love and Prayers from Canada 🇨🇦❤🙏🕊🌹
From Spanish Harlem these ladies made it big. From touring Australia with the Beatles to Ed Sullivan landing in the Rock N Roll hall of Fame. They made it.
The Ronettes are an awesome talent. I've always heard this song on oldies stations and this is the 1st time I've heard and seen them performing. Sha Na Na always had great talent on their show. It's great to hear something that's awesome and from Memory Lane. Especially girl groups that reigned supreme at one time.
Being born in 1960, seeing all these amazing artists passing just keeps getting harder and harder... I gew up with a huge crush on Nedra. They were so talented. My older sister had their hair for a while.. RIP Ronnie..Hope you and Eddy are rocking till the morning light..
So sorry we lost another Ronette. I was growing up with the girl groups. We just lost Mary Weiss of the Shangri-la s, We lost Lesley Gore a few years ago. Now Ronnie of the Ronettes. My favorites of childhood. Bless them all. 😢😮❤❤❤
Just heard the news a week late. Always bothers me that such legends don't make bigger news - I'd think losing someone so special in the history of pop/rock would be broadcast more. Ronnie Spector deserves that. I think past my kiddie music like The Chipmunks and Mouseketeer songs, the girl groups, Four Seasons and other late doo-wop come early 60's rock were the birth of my musical journey. I owe my entire psyche and soul to their sound and energy. Rest well Ronnie and thank you.
She sung this live!! Unbelievable talent. RIP Ronnie
She's still alive
@@gorfpatrol2073 Ronnie passed away :-(
The music isn't live, doubtful she's singing live.
@@richardmckrell4899 It appears everyone is singing, versus lip-syncing, as this was recorded.

Ronnie Spector died at 79 years old today. I still love this song. So sad!
❤️
So sad that we have lost this luminous legend. What a voice! What a smile! What amazing presence! She will be missed. May she rest in peace!
Such a talent and what a live performance, she always gave 100% on stage . R.I.P. 🌺❤️🩹
I didn't know.....
well said Curtis !
I wonder why she kept the Spector Name. After all he did to her and they did divorce. Fame?identity? She didnt need it as she had tslent
Truth Indeed, We Loved The Ronettes growing up. RIH BEAUTIFUL
She certainly has a voice that you do not forget.
Truth Indeed, Ronnie had a distinctive Singing voice. RIH BEAUTIFUL
🖤🎼🖤🎼🖤🎼✨✨
Yes she does. She sounds exactly like the record
And so cute
❤
Not only were The Ronettes great singers, they were beautiful women also.
Wow,i dont knowed/
ABSOLUTELY!
Progressive contrast.
Thaanks guys,for Goode Comments !!
Agreed. Sadly, only one of them is still alive.
That was awesome!! Nearly 60 years since that record was released...and I still have the 45. Absolute gold. RIP Ronnie. xxx
Wanna sell it?
Me too, the fantastic 60's.
Great Song! Ronnie was So Talented. And together those Ronette’s were beautiful women. I remember seeing this show! RIP Ronnie.
Ronnie Spector has such a beautiful voice!
But she lip-synched this performance.
@@Hopeless_and_Forlorn She's singing live here.

Sasha Banks from WWE should play Ronnie Spector. She looks just like Ronnie Spector.
Ronnie was so beautiful and had such a voice!!!! So sorry she hooked up with Phil and went through the trauma she did. She will always be (our little Ronnie with that angel voice).
@Taylor Made Man He ended up shooting a woman in the mouth, so it’s not hard to believe.
She wanted money……she got the crap that sometimes comes with it.
@@larrygronewold6529 are you actually tolerating someone shooting someone in the mouth as “crap that sometimes comes with money?”
@@bapsnatchedmywig I’m saying she had to know the guy was nutty as hell but her love of money apparently over rode her senses
@Taylor Made Man extremely in various ways
Amazing voice. She is the most beautiful woman in the world. When she sings I’m 14 years old again in the sixties. She stayed beautiful even as she got older. So natural. RIP Ronnie and Estelle. 😔💜
I turned 10 in 1964. I grew up listening to her and many others. Music won’t ever be the same.
I was 14 then too. They were rockers but they were ladies. Never trashy or crude. Sometimes in gowns. Tasteful. My kinda women to this day. RIP Ronnie and Estelle.
Ça fera la plus belle femme du monde. Très ordinaire, mais une bonne chanteuse.
Get a grip will ya??? She wasn't THAT great!!

How could I have missed this for so long? What a woman she was.

See kids, real talent didn't need lip sync or autotune. LOVE Sha na na and LOVE the Ronettes!
this got a lot of chances of lip sync...
@@FakedStick there’s layered in background voices, audience and instruments, to be sure, everything on tv is always a production, either way.

Li- syncing no guitars plugged in and piano player spins around when piano still playing - all show not live
Do you know that even back then they lip singed in the 60s
This is so good it could be illegal.
R I P Ronnie. God Bless.
Effortless and natural talent. How many performers can say that today? Also, how many remember her cameo in the Eddie Money song video? Love that!
YEP!! FIRST one i thought of hearing tbe sad news.
A lot, old timer. Why denigrate the youth of today and their music while attempting to compliment the talent of your youth? Pathetic.
“ listen honey, just like Ronnie sang…”
" just like ronnie said"
Not many
Ahh the good ol days. I'm only 50 and it seems like ten lifetimes ago. Sha na na seems we were more evolved as a species back then.
🙏🌏❤️✌️

Sad to see her go today, will always be remembered. RIP Ronnie.
As soon as she started singing..tears started streaming...what a great " live" version.!!
I'm still crying after the song ends
Yo era un bebé cuando ellas cantaban está canción Siento la energía de ésa época su buque su encanto su magia Que nostalgia

Love her voice! She makes Eddie Money's song with her chorus
Really true.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🌹🌹🌹🌹🥀🌹🌹🌹🥀🌹🙏🙏
Ronnie still sounded great in the late 1970's like she did in the mid 1960's.
I miss those days Big Time!
She sounded great on Take Me Home Tonight, too.
can not believe this song is from '63; one of the most beautiful songs from these beautiful ladies
What a beautiful soul she was and that voice…! RIP Ms. Ronnie!
Ronnie sure knows how to use her Voice!
That 'Crack' in it is Amazing.....That makes her Unique & makes her sound so Good!!
It makes her sound fantastic!

sou de 60 ela soou aos meus ouvidos criancinha impregnou me arrepio tbm algo transcendental
I am 76 now but when I was 13 or 14 I had pictures of the Ronettes on my bedroom wall. They were adorable.
No madonna?
She sure was a cutie! And that voice was just so iconic! Rest peacefully, Precious!❤️

I used to watch this show when I was a child in the 70s. Looking at it now I'm amazed how well they played the air guitar and other instruments! Sha Na Na
Omg, I loved watching this show too!
Me too. When they played my local civic center you know I had to go!
Seeing her so young and beautiful singing this great hit… makes you want to cry that she’s no longer with us💕
We were all young and beautiful when this was a hit 😊
So long, Ronnie. Thanks for all the great music and good memories.
RIP Ronnie - get chills at this song and performances like this
this is priceless!!
I love her voice. And her doing her best to navigate her way around the cake on the floor killed me.
I was about 10 and they were my first concert. Mom and dad took me. I had a blast
Nobody looked like Ronnie or sounded like her. She is so talented.
*Yes, there was someone before 'Regina Victoria' who had that 'sound' and his name was 'Frankie Lymon'*

A haunting, soulful voice like no other ...both playful & sentimental , she gave lyrics a youthful & a mature quality...
Rest In Peace 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Beautiful woman with a beautiful voice unique voice.
RIP, such a wonderful voice. Timeless.
A song Brian Wilson played every day, he was fascinated by its beauty
i can believe that
Brian Wilson and the Beach Boys' song, Don't Worry Baby is the musical answer to Be my Baby.....
i totally hear it
You can hear the influence of that beat on Pet Sounds
i could do the same
RIP Ronnie......you graced our world with your songs and joyful being.
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
I’m betting her voice is the only “live” thing we hear. It gives me goosebumps.
That voice is just as fresh as it was back in '63.
I saw her at The Whitley Bay Playhouse in 2016, she was just as good then.
I remember them. Brings back great memories. The music back then was the best.
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
RIP RONNIE your voice was beautiful you will be misswd
I Remember Watching This Program Back in the Late 70´s.
Hay baby . I grew up on sha na na . Born in 69 . It was my favorite show . When Halloween came around . Guess who I dressed up as . Bowzer baby . Ronnie spector who sang " be my baby " my god .

( Ha ) Hmmmm . Makes you wonder if I get humor from Bowzer to .
The definition of Ronnie is "class!" God bless her!
Wow! No one can sing like her.
Ronnie owns this song all day long.
You put beauty with a voice like hers and is a masterpiece will never forget you Ronnie you were my favorite may you rest in peace gone to soon.
The Ronettes were no joke. They EARNED their seat in the R&R HOF!!!!!

Can't give enough kudos to Phil Spector's hair.

I remember actually watching this episode of Sha Na Na as a kid.
She was a super singer , Rest In Peace
What a voice - what a performer! This is extreme excellence! Love it!
Wow Ronnie had such an original sound. So distinguishable and her own. RIP.... Ronnie you bought so many millions happiness.
Rest In Peace, Ronnie. Jan 12, 2022
She really was the personification of that early ‘60s zeitgeist. When you hear her sing whether you were alive then or not she transports you there.
