Ya gotta love Ronnie, she’s a survivor. I don’t know how anybody could come through that level of emotional abuse and find balance again. I’m really glad that Ronnie found her way back to the light after being surrounded by that darkness.
Time heals most people. Certainly healed me.
I have read Ronnie's memoirs several times.....she went through hell in the seventies. It took her a very long time to that balance again and much of it is thanks to her mom's good counsel. Steer clear of guys with anger issues and a need for control. Phil was seriously damaged by his father's suicide and likely at the root of his problems.
@@msr1116 I think despite his father's suicide, he could have been better nurtured by his mother, but she was a shitty one, and his sister was kind of spoiled for what I can gather. Dysfunctional family.
RIP BEAUTIFUL LADY YOU WERE THE BEST WE WILL MISS YOU.
So awful to know what this beautiful talented woman endured under the thumb of that mad man.
She didn't know how she did what she did with her songs. That's because she was gifted with natural talent. What an awesome lady. It's hard to believe she's gone but certainly won't be forgotten.
I had hoped she would have lived a long and happy life with her new family (after Phil Spector's passing) but it just wasn't meant to be. Some people just don't get the good breaks in life. I still listen to all of her songs and enjoy them. She was only a few years older than I am. I always enjoyed the 1960s girl groups and I always will. We'll miss you, Ronnie.
Very well said, Douglas. I agree 100%. I'm so sad that she is gone, but she is singing with the angels now in a better place ... but we will always miss her ... she was the real deal.
I would see Ronnie yearly since 2003 at one of our CT casinos. She would do her Christmas shows and I watched how the crowds grew bigger and bigger with each year. The last time we saw her was 2019. Covid came and stopped many from performing. Losing Supremes Mary Wilson then a year later Ronnie Spector was very hard for me. Loved these ladies since a kid in the 60s. A neighbor came to our house with the 45 record Walking In The Rain. The record cover was a picture of these three beauties who looked Hispanic to us. Loved this record ever since. Phil Spector was awesome recording great artists but fizzed out by the late 60s. Another great song he produced was Black Pearl from 1969. I loved that song too! Another Phil’s best.
Fascinating to listen to Ronnie telling it as it was. You can feel every nuance of her early careeer recollections within this interview. Spector, though a meshiganah mamas boy remains a musical genius.
Such a lovely beautiful lady... I had a big crush on her for years
Such a beautiful person with the voice of an angel
Rest in peace 🙏🙏 ronnie spector now rest in peace your be missed but never forgotten
I was too young to know when the Ronnettes were on the top of their fame. Boy, am I glad of the technology we have today. Great harmony, great music, great looking girls. I am happy.
I am happy to ; )
He was right about that..her voice WOULD and DID stick out.
It really was a special instrument that voice.
I love the New Yowk ..Cawfee ..Pepsi and patata chips..My home.
Ronnie was 100% New Yorker through and through. Born and raised in Spanish Harlem, she never turned her back on her roots.
Horrific abuse. We must not tolerate or excuse when people are treated this way.
She WAS LUCKY to escape this eff'ing POS.....sheesh! May she REST IN PEACE....what a powerful voice from a TINY lady!
Love me some Ronnie Spector, always will.
I was a teenager when this wonderful song came out and I stll recall the lyrics. Once the British music invasion started in early 1964, great American youthful music like The Ronettes faced unprecedented competition for the radio air time it deserved, and so their record sales must have suffered. I loved both the American and the British music.
She looks amazing still
Think this was from 1985
RIP 😔🙏🏼💜🙏🏼💜🙏🏼
I'm just recently discovering this record. And I am crazy in love with this song. I play it everyday as if it was a new song that just came out. RIP Ronnie & Estelle of the Ronettes!🙏🙏🙏
Never gets old.❤
This track was also a hit for Jay and the Americans as well. But Ronnie's is the best of the two. RIP RONNIE SPECTOR.
Walker Brothers recorded it as well.... But RONNIE & the girls, SHEER MAGIC!
Man oh man 2022 is taking our singers sucks we will see more of our music icons going home RIP
Grew up in this wonderful country ❤ listening to amazingly talented Angels 😇 as her for THERE WILL NEVER BE ANYONE ELSE LIKE HER AGAIN. CREATOR ONLY DOES "ORIGINAL MAJICAL CHILDREN/NO COPIES ALLIOWED WHATSOEVER!"
She is so pretty. wow.
RIP
👍 thumbs up for Ronnie, you are incredible!!!! I got nothing good to say about Phil.
R I P Ronnie-there is nothing good to say about Phil as a human being but as a musical producer,he was a genius. If he had died in 1975,we would have had a totally different view of him.
Phil Spector did indeed change music, but otherwise, that's it
THE WORLD IS A LESSER PLACE WITH RONNIE GONE. A BEAUTIFUL LADY WITH A BEAUTIFUL VOICE. HER MUSIC HAS BEEN A PART OF MY LIFE FOR 50 YEARS. RONNIE AND HER SISTER ESTELLE FACED ADVERSITY IN THEIR LIVES BUT RONNIE OVERCAME AND CARRIED ON. I'M SORRY THAT SHE IS GONE BUT I'M ALSO GRATEFUL THAT HER MUSIC HAS TOUCHED MY LIFE. I HOPE SHE KNOWS THAT SHE WILL BE MISSED BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN. REST IN PEACE VERONICA 💔
ditto
Always surprised when they start singing 'I want you to want me.' ❤
Spector was out his mind....surprised no one smacked the fire out of him.
I love you Ronnie! ❤️🌹😘
Madman for sure
1:20 Darlene Love and Cher.
RIP Ronnie and Phil Spector
Phil Spector (Philles), Motown, and '70s Philly Soul were my musical heroes. Phil & Ronnie made some magnificent recordings together!
@@maddy3851 Unfortunately, yes. Phil could be mentally and emotionally abusive, as he had demons of his own that he was dealing with. But whenever the man walked into Gold Star studio, he became a musical genius! Phil and his Philles Records label gave us timeless recordings by The Crystals, The Ronettes, Darlene Love, Bobby Soxx & The Blue Jeans, The Righteous Brothers, and, later, Tina Turner -- all of which boasted Phil's groundbreaking Wall Of Sound.
@@maddy3851 Abuse is an understatement . Read Ronnie Spector's memoir.
horrible she went through all of that abuse...RIP
OH MY GOODNESS THE REAL RONNIE SPECTOR...I LOVE HER SPEAKING VOICE AS WELL AS HER SINGING VOICE. AND GOD. ALL THAT GORGEOUS HAIR......AS A STILL MUSIC PRODUCER. MOSTLY FOR MYSELF AND MY GIRL GROUP..ARE THERE ANY BOOKS AVAILABLE TO READ IN THE *** ***PHIL SPECTOR*** RECORDING TECHNIQUES...
RIP sweetheart
Phil Spector was a freak and one hell of a producer
Yes!
Such a great record. Damn, even after she escaped Phil, she was still giving him credit for her talent.
this was interesting, man a interesting time.
He was a twisted individual, he killed a woman!!
RIP Phil. All said and done he was a flawed genius and we wouldn't have these beautiful songs by the Ronettes without him.
There is no compensating for murder. STOP.
@@pls5201 His father committed suicide when he was a child, his mother abused him, his sister was in a lunatic asylum and he himself described her as the sane one in the family. It's mo wonder he was such a mess but it doesn't detract from his genius, flawed as he was. You stop... and think.
Please stop and think about the actress he killed. Her life mattered too. He wasn’t just “flawed” he was brutal, cruel and dangerous. Many people with tough childhoods overcome tragedy rather than wallow in it. Yes the wall of sound was fun, but I repeat: there is no compensation for murder.
@@pls5201 She shot herself gun powder residue on her hand...a drunk like Phil could not pull that off.
So sick. He did it and the driver heard him admit it. Enough with this sad rabbit hole of people who won’t accept the terrible deed done by that wretched man.
How is it a 'lost' interview? Isn't lost... it's just that it's been in a archive. I think the word you're looking for is 'found'.
Ha ha - it was somewhere in storage
R.I.P. ronnie
Be My Baby is the greatest pop song of all time
I must agree!
Brian Wilson would agree.
I love you Ronettes! ❤️🌹😘
RIP my talented beauty.
I love you All! ❤️🌹😘
❤️🧡💛💚💙
❤️🌹👑✨🙏
👍❤️❤️
🎶🌻💐
I find that with most people....they never know that they are being abused...yet looking back now at that situation it was obvious
Worked many places and see it all the time....in relationship and company environments
One of the greatest groups the Ronnetts
I don't know what to think of old Phil maybe he needed Dr Phil now that would be a show
I wish I could go back in Time. I'd marry her. ❤️
I can't hardly believe Ronnie was married to Phil Spector...I wonder if he was always crazy 😮

even though she escaped spector, she still didnt totally escape him
ronnie...it was all you...that is why phil was so afraid of you breaking away
you inspired brian wilson....not many can say that
What version is @1:20
Maybe a rough cut of just background singers? Pictured are Darlene Love and Cher, both background singers at the time.
Phil wasn’t a genius but he thought he was. Little things prove that. When he produced his Christmas album they included the song “Sleigh Ride” with Ronnie singing lead. When they got to the phrase “birds of a feather”, British for “people who are alike”, Ronnie sang it “birds off a feather”. Ronnie was from Washington Heights and was unfamiliar with the British term. Phil was from Brooklyn and didn’t know the term either and didn’t check the spelling so it was never fixed. And every Christmas since 1963 when that song airs on the radio and I hear Ronnie sing “birds off a feather”, I laugh and think “Phil the genius!”.
@radioman3515. Appreciate your comment. Are you sure about the phrase. I thought "birds of a feather" was well known here in U.S. As in "birds of a feather flock together". The Ronettes' version of "Sleigh Ride" is one of my favorites.
@@bh8365 It is well known here in the U.S. and no matter what he thinks he hears, she does sing it correctly on "Sleigh Ride."
I agree with the others - I was born/raised in NY and always knew the expression (analogy) birds of a feather flock together. I'll have to play that song and check it out.
A legend in his own mind.
Everyone complaining about the guy who gave them fame and fortune.
Phil Spector invented her
As far as Phil Spector being a genius... I think that's overrated... Brian Wilson thought he was good but I also think Brian was a scared of them.... Paul McCartney thought it was a lot of unnecessary noise the wall of sound..... I think he was just lucky to have a lot of very good musicians come around him.
As talented as Phil was, the songs were great because of the real genius of the SONGWRITERS.
Mann/Weil, Greenwich/Barry and King/Goffin, the skill of producer Nitzkie and all those gifted musicians are why those songs have become immortal.
I have always believed that Phil didn't know when to stop with his quest and obsession for "perfection" and so he ended up OVERPRODUCING the sound. Only occasionally did it work. Most of the time his efforts just created a lot of unnecessary noise.
Phil was a musical genius, and of course deeply flawed
Its true. Its also sad that there are people who cannot handle the cognitive dissonance, Phil Spector the genius producer and Phil Spector the bipolar alcoholic ...I love Ronnie but without Phil she likely would have been a nobody in the the industry. She also wanted to marry Phil because he was going to make her a star, which he did. She went into that relationship knowing he was married and she was the other woman. Darlene Love warned her.
@@mattmammone2338 Wrong- she did not know he was married when she got into the relationship. Also she fell in love with Phil ... in a purely innocent way -- she was so young! Read her book. She is (was) very honest and natural. Also, I think with her voice she would have gone very far w/without Phil. She is and was a shining star. Also, Phil Spector would have been nothing if not for all the talented vocalists ... they made him famous IMHO.
@@chrisha1595 IMO, Phil Spector was a parasite, and his "Wall of Sound" was a sludge of 'special effects' -a type of gimmick that pop culture is a sucker for. I have always preferred "listening" to music-various instrumentation, voices, highs, lows, etc., then and now.
RIP Genius PHIL 🙏
Oh please, she only married him because she wanted him to make her a star! She used him too.
How can U say that, were U there?!
Also if this was ever true it doesn't justify the horrific abuses she beared.
She was already a Star What a dumb comment
@@linbru46rocksh93 That's not what she said in this video. Did you watch this video? She said she was well aware that without him there would be no hits ....
She didn't marry him until 1968. The Ronettes had already passed their peak by then.
