I am a native Spanish speaker and I certify that Linda's Spanish is perfiect
Linda Ronstadt is American of Mexican/German descent. In some of her songs in Spanish I could detect a hint of an accent, but in this song she just nailed it :).
Linda Ronstadt is Mexican-American! Mexicans are primarily of Native American and European ancestry. All "that" fits under the Mexican descent umbrella. We don't break up all our European ancestors into groups we just say we're Mexican American.
@@peregrinefalcon6747 But her father was a Mexican of German descent, and Americans DO like to break up their European lineage into groups they like to represent and aknowledge. That means that just as you can describe someone as "Mexican-American" because he/she is born in the U.S. from Mexican parents, you can also refer to someone who has a Mexican parent with German ancestry as being "American of Mexican/German descent". Nothing wrong with that... or particularly unusual.
@@carlosurdaneta4361I don't go around saying that I have Spanish, French, Italian, Basque, Portuguese, British, Northern European, and Native American. I just say I'm of Mexican descent. Moreover, I have French all over; I have more French than she has German, but I am Mexican American. Let me reiterate what I stated before the fact is that the vast majority of Mexican descent individuals do not divide up their European ancestors into categories! Mexican Americans simply say they are Mexican American or Chicana/o.
Her paternal Grandfather immigrated from Northern Mexico in 1946 to the Sonoran area of Arizona. They were a ranching family. Linda got a lot of questions because his name (Ronstadt) was not one most Americans associate with Mexican ancestry. That's why the German descent became so prevalent in descriptions of her ancestry.
I’ve read some comments from Spanish speaking viewers who said they could tell that she is not singing in her first language. Her father was Mexican and she grew up a few miles from the border, in Tuscon, Arizona. She is very passionate about her Mexican heritage which is evidenced by the joy on her face as she sings these beautiful songs. As a child, she thought people spoke in English and that Spanish was a magical musical language for singing. She’s an amazing human being and can no longer sing due to a neurological disorder. That is a terrible tragedy and loss for all of us. 🌺✌️
Su padre no era mexicano
Nació en Tucson Arizona
Su abuelo era alemán, emigró a Sonora Se casó con una mexicana de Sonora,el matrimonio emigró a EEUU ,Tucson Arizona y adquirieron la nacionalidad
Y allí nació el papa de Linda que se casó con una estadounidense, de Michigan de origen inglés/holandés
Llnda nació en Tucson también
No sabe absolutamente nada de español
Pero nada de nada
A su papá le gustaba tanto la canción mexicana que era lo que se ecuchaba en *casa* así que Linda creció con esa música, por eso tituló su primer álbum de rancheras "Canciones de mi padre "..
No olvidemos que en Tucson hay una gran comunidad de descendientes mexicanos y la radio que se escuchaba era la radio mexicana ,Tucson Arizona esta cerca de la frontera con México, de echo Arizona perteneció a México
Asi que pretender que eso no haya influenciado en la cultura que se respira allí seria de tontos
Ella dice en una entrevista que le hicieron en la tv mexicana (donde también menciona a su abuelo alemán) ,que su referente musical ,fue la gran cantante mexicana Lola Beltrán, la entrevista la hace en inglés, que es su idioma de nacimiento, por que como dije no sabe hablar ni una palabra en español
Lo único que *hablaba* por así decir eran las letra de las canciones
Así que a parte de esa prodigiosa voz ,(que no lo es todo para poder cantar bien este género) tiene el *sentimiento* ,la garra , la emoción y la *dificultad* de no cantar en su idioma,los que hablamos español no notamos ningu acento ,ella pronuncia perfecto
Eso también ha contribuido a que muchos crean que habla español ,o que su papa era de México
Ni lo uno ni lo otro
Aunque a los que la conocíamo dede antes de las rancheras y que también somos amantes de la canción mexicana, nos sorprendió muy gratamente....
Es una gozada escucharla
*por un amor*
*la Cigarra*
*Hay uno ojos*
*Y andale*...
No olviden su álbum de boleros
Y como olvidar sus comienzos con el countrhry/rock ,pop/rock ,teniendo un enorme éxito en los 70 en su país EEUU, tiene 29 LP's de estudio ,y 63 singles en directo,(la apodaban la reina del rock)
Tres de los músicos de la banda de la que ella fue vocalista,se fueron y crearon el maravilloso grupo de *The Eagles* ,ahí es nada, ensayaban en la casa de Linda
Si hasta hizo una incursión en el cine con un musical casi operistico que no tuvo gran éxito
No le hizo falta,ella es tan versátil
Maravillosa
@@zorkundegilaldama8727 Linda Ronstadt is Mexican American. Mexicans are primarily of Native American and European ancestry. Let me remind you que Mexicanos pueden nacer donde se les de la gana. Los Mexicanos pueden hablar en la idioma que se les de la gana. Mexican Americans can speak Spanish and English whenever they want to. Moreover, Mexican Americans can mix both Spanish and English in a sentence if they want to.

@@zorkundegilaldama8727 Unfortunately I am unable to translate your answer and I don’t speak or read Spanish.
Where did you get this info? It's wrong on all counts. Except she suffers from a progressive form of Parkinson's desease.
Linda´s father was Mexican. Shew grew up listening Mexican music and she loved it. Actually, the album from where this song is taken is entitled "Canciones de mi Padre" (Songs of my father). This album was both a way to honor his father´s memory but also she has said she really wanted to sing these songs cause she loved them.
I think her father was German mom was Mexican Ranstad is a German name.
Linda Ronstadt can sing anything. Folk. Pop. Rock. Blues. Big Band from the 1940's, and she appeared on Broadway singing light opera.
I speak spanish and Linda sing without accent she is amazing one of the best singer in the world!!
She is one of our greatest female sings of all time! Her catalogue is vast and eclectic! The Eagles were her back up band, before they went on their own! Great love between them and, Linda. 😎❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. Every young man back in the 70’s had a crush on her, me also!
She is of Mexican descent from her father's side. She grew up speaking English but singing in Spanish.
Even though there are certain moments where Linda Ronstadt has a slight American accent while she is singing Spanish, but for the most part, she really hits her notes in Spanish correctly I would say 95% of the time! Even though she is not a native Spanish speaker, the way she can hold her notes, even at times using a falsetto is stunning! Beautiful lady 🌸
Linda’s breath controls blows me away!
She is one of the most important singers in history. Period. So proud of her because she is biracial, beautiful woman, smart, fine human, and what a voice!!! She is a huge part of the American fabric by being a trailblazer in American Rock. As she got older, she also realized how important her Mexican heritage was and was an embassador for Folkloric Mexican music. Her album “Canciones de mi Padre” are an homage to that! So proud! You should also react to her songs in English. Just as wonderful and great!
“You’re no Good”
“Blue Bayou”
Just to start. Once you go down this path with Linda Rondstadt you will be there for a while. And because you guys are so appreciative of different cultures, you will see just how enormous her legacy is. I love your reactions and I am so proud of Linda. I am a proud Mexican and a Proud American.
You forgot Broadway star. Pirates of Penzance. Big Band songs. She truly is generational, and that is selling her short.
You forgot to mention it was Linda Ronstadt who assembled a band that would become the Eagles. Hear Glenn Frey and Don Henley talk about this.... th-cam.com/video/QqYnztvtV7o/w-d-xo.htmlsi=E_x_fP4WzUHsaF2m
I am a Mexican American and La Charreada basically means The Rodeo and the ongoings of a bullrider on a horse during a chase to capture the bull with his lasso in the bull ring. Linda is Mexican American and she speaks perfect Spanish and English and very fluent in both as her roots and heritage are from Mexico too. She is one of our wonderful Mexican American Icons and loved through out the United States. Mariachi definitely and absolutely brings out the soul of the music and fully encompasses the listeners heart. If I can suggest an other wonderful artist who uses his personal Mariachi band (and they are super) is Luis Miguel and the song is "La Bikina", you'll absolutely love it and him too. Enjoy. Love your reactions.
Perfectamente bien cantada y totalmente mexicana en su pronunciación...Felicidades desde el centro de México!!
Tiene raices de Sonora.
She has a perfect mexican accent!!!! And like they say in mexico ' A MEXICAN IS BORN WHERE EVER THE HELL THEY WANT!!!!!! Thank you for the reaction keep up the excellent reaction. God bless!
Linda is half Mexican and half German. She did not speak Spanish growing up. She learned to sing these songs by studying the meaning and taking lessons in Spanish and she is such a perfectionist that she didn't record until her pronunciation was perfect. She did a second album of these songs and then another album, "Frenesy" which has some more Cuban rhythms.
She did two Spanish albums and they went platinum very quickly. She also did an album with the Nelson Riddle Orchestra and sang torch songs from the 1940’s and 50s. My favorite is “What’s New?” A masterpiece of beauty. She could sing anything.
Most people think of Linda Ronstadt as a singer of the 70s. However, two of her biggest selling studio albums were from the 80s...."What's New" and "Cry Like a Rainstorm, Howl Like the Wind". Both of those albums are currently certified at triple platinum in sales. Her former manager and producer, Peter Asher, said that Linda's record sales have not been audited in the last 20 years, and her record sales is actually much higher. Linda's first Spanish language album, "Canciones de mi padre", is still the biggest selling Spanish language album in the US.
Linda actually did three albums of Jazz ballads, all with Nelson Riddle conducting the orchestra.
She is a proud Latina. To this day, she has the largest selling non English album in US history, which is pretty amazing considering the US has one of the world’s largest Spanish speaking populations, and where entire genres of music like salsa originated and home to so many Spanish language musical artists known worldwide. Her aunt was a very successful singer in Mexico and her father was a singer too (though not professionally). There is no one in American music history who has been successful in so many different musical genres than Linda.
She doesn't speak Spanish but she learnt the songs phonetically. She's American who grew up in the Mexican American border of Arizona. Her father was Mexican with some German heritage hence her last name. Her mother American. She said that she grew up listening to Mexican radio and thought that Spanish was a singing language and English was for speaking. She wanted to honor the songs she liked growing up so she did a couple of records to honor her father. This is one of the most popular mariachi records and dinner Mexicans didn't even know Linda didn't speak Spanish. She nailed the style perfectly. Another non Mexican to triumph in mariachi was Rocío Durcal from Spain. I hope you can react to her since she was Juan Gabriel's favorite singer.
She did not learn the songs phonetically. She studied hard to perfect her Spanish.
History's Greatest Singing Voice!!!
Believe me: It is imposible to detect that Linda is not mexican not just because of the perfect accent but because of the way she understood the mexican style to perform this kind of music. Charreada is something like American Rodeo. I'm mexican, by the way.
i agree with you. her accent is great and like you said she" gets it"
She worked quite a bit with Ruben Blades on style and pronunciation - several videos about it on TH-cam
@@hpacheco Tiene ascendencia mexicana
Tiene ascendencia mexicana
Of course, if his father was Mexican, that is why the name of his album songs of my father canciones de mi padre please inform yourself before giving an opinion
The woman reactor in this has such a beautiful smile the entire time Linda is singing. 😊
Watching and listening to Linda and all the mariachi is more fun than an actual rodeo (charreada). This is my favorite Spanish song/performance of hers. The most "impressive" part is the way she hits that single note spot on, then holds it perfectly steady for incredibly long before abruptly cutting it. She doesn't merely "come close" to the note and then correct it, but hits it precisely. I think it's much harder to hold that note steady than move to another note, because if there were any variation in the note, we would hear the imperfection.
The prettiest sounding and most fun to watch are the parts where she has a lot of inflections in voice and is animated with gestures.
Thank you very much for this reaction! I think her mexican accent is 99% perfect.
Her Spanish (singing) is flawless! She is perfect in her Diction. Linda born in Tucson, Arizona. Her father is Mexican and Linda said “ In our house, English was language we spoke, but Spanish is the language we sang. Her Father and her Uncles would have a BBQ on the weekends and they would break out their guitars and start singing in Spanish. That’s why this album & concert is called “Canciones de Mi Padre” (songs of my father). She does Not speak Spanish, but you couldn’t tell by her Dead On pronunciation. Linda has 11 Grammy’s in several Genre’s. Rock, Spanish, Country and even Opera. There is nothing she can’t sing, which is sad because she came down with a form of Parkinson’s (2008) and can no longer sing. She has lost control of her (throat) muscles….. SanJoséBob
I want to listen to this every morning. I wore out this album on cassette and cd by listening to her on job sites for years. She is truly, astoundingly talented. Howdy from Texas!
La Charriada is The Rodeo. It is a song about the sights and sounds of the rodeo with bulls, cowboys and rope tricks. It says "I would like to ride a bull so my love can see me". Her Spanish is the best! Her Father was from Mexico and all the songs on this album were sung in her paternal home. It does bring joy to my Mexican heart!
Late last year Linda wrote a book "Feels Like Home" all about her family's heritage and the Sonoran region she grew up in, its well worth reading.
Linda is so iconic! Thanks for your reaction! ❤✌🏼
A charreada is a Mexican "Rodeo" where the charros (Mexican riders, like cowboys) tame horses, ride bulls and do a number of amazing stunts. The charreada is the national sport of Mexico. Those nice costumes the mariachi are wearing, actually are the outfit of Charros, of course ther is some "gala" Charro costume all adorned in silver, and there is a "Brega" (or hard work) charro costume that is far more utilitarian, and yet just as beautiful.
Greetings from an old Charro in the state of Mexico.
Gracias por la información. 👍🏻Yo aprovecho los comentarios para aprender más. 😁
Mariachi Vargas, the best mariachi ever, and Linda, just wonderful!!!!
Something that many folks forget - or are unaware of... is the southwestern US was originally settled by Spain,
and then was part of Mexico before becoming part of the US... so there is some shared heritage there.
As others have said, Linda grew up in Tucson, Arizona and does have a mixed heritage.
Her sensitivity to the music comes through very clearly in her artistry.
Linda is Mexican. She sang these songs with her father growing up. He was a cantor.
Habla muy, muy bien el español e interpreta maravillosamente la canción.
She definitely know how to roll her R’s
Linda Ronstadt has Mexican heritage on her dad's side. Growing up she listened to many types of music, including Mexican music, which was sung by her entire family. She does a great job singing in Spanish. Linda has one of the best female voices ever & can sing in any genre. Sadly she has progressive supranuclear palsy & can no longer sing a note.
I grew up listening to Romanian Romany music- just incredible, too! I always loved The Lark!
Excelente interpretacion de una bellísima canción. Saludos
Linda Ronstadt understands Spanish and she speaks a little but when she sings, she sings an a perfect Mexican mariachi vocals. It’s perfect if somebody’s telling you, they hear an accent they don’t know what they’re talking about.
Her great great great grandfather who is German who moved to Sonora Mexico the family was split up because the border moved, and the United States took over that part of Mexico. So she was raise singing Spanish, but not speaking it, because in Arizona in those times you would get beat by your teachers if you spoke Spanish.
She is known to be a perfectionist. She does not speak Spanish. Her father is half Mexican. She has said that when she was growing up, her family would speak in English but sing in Spanish.
My impression is that she is most culturally Mexican American.
As you probably know, she was a superstar in the 70s singing rock and roll and country/folk/rock... at that time nobody knew that she was Mexican, apparently not even her agents and managers.
Even in the 70's everyone knew Linda Ronstadt was Mexican American. She never ran away from her Mexican roots. Moreover, she always embraced her Mexicaness.
she is so powerful
Her Father’s family immigrated to Mexico from Germany in 1835. She was born is Arizona. Her family sang in Spanish, her father was a very successful singer who sang Mexican Ranchera and songs in English. Her mother I think was Scotch and not sure what else. Her mother listened to the American Jazz standards , Gilbert and Sullivan as well as opera.
In the 1970s she was the best and most famous female rock and roll singers.
Yes. Her father has German blood, and raised American/Mexican. PS she won the first Grammy ever in Latin/Spanish!
.
You've got one job. Walk up to Linda and sing the last two notes. He nails it!
LINDA RONSTADT ... BEAUTIFUL VOICE " RANCHERA " MEXICANA ... NOW IS MEXICANA-AMERICANA/GERMAN TOO ... WE LIVE IN SAME CONTINENT .. WE LOVE USA , AND GERMAN TOO
She definitely has no singing accent, but when she speaks it... yes. All these songs are classics of Mexican music and she recorded them on an album titled "My father's songs" or semething like that, the same that deserved a Grammy award. In an interview, Lynda says that are songs that she listened to since she was a child, reason for wich she has fully mastered the phrasing and technique of the Mexican music. Perhaps the greatest success of her career was the song "Blue Bayou", a theme that surely you have also heard because it was a worldwide succes. Greetings!
Thanks for your reactions! I grew up being around the Ronstadt family as my mother worked for Linda's father at the Ronstadt Hardware store in Tucson Arizona USA. Many fond memories
Ella no habla español de manera fluida. La madre de su abuelo, es decir su bisabuela, era de origen mexicano. Sin embargo, al nacer y crecer en Arizona, y luego en California, el idioma español y la música mexicana, siempre estuvieron muy cercanas a ella. En USA viven casi 40 millones de personas de origen mexicano.
Ella grabó tres discos LP en español, dos de música ranchera y uno de boleros y música romántica. Los tres con una excelente calidad de voz y de producción.
Actualmente ella por el Parkinson ya no puede cantar..
Ella aprendió a cantar como lo indica la Escuela Mexicana de Bel Canto.
Linda's father was of Mexican descent; also some German. She grew up in Arizona and was fluent in English and Spanish.
Hello! I explain, "Charreada" is. the equivalent in Mexico of the "Rodeo" in the United States.
I really like your videos, thanks for sharing. Greetings from Guadalajara, Mexico.
Hello guys, I like your videos because your reactions are very spontaneous and natural, the natural translation into the word "charreada" would be something like "the rodeo", without horseback riding practices that originated in the Maxican countryside to herd cattle. , but as they are practiced by the charros (from whom the mariachis took their clothing), that is why they are called "charreadas." Greetings and a hug from Guadalajara, Mexico.
I've always loved her. She is truly gifted and I'm we have her recordings to remember that.
She is very much Mexican-American Latina. She grew up outside of Tucson AZ on her grandfather's hacienda. Her father was German-Mexican her mother was from Detroit, MI. Growing up they sang in Spanish but the public school in the 50-60s English was spoken at school and if the kids spoke Spanish they would be punished. When Linda set out to do Spanish-language albums she had to learned the songs phonetically and re-learn the Spanish she knew as a child.
yes. you can tell the difference, you can tell that Spanish is not her first language. but it's not bad at all. She is Mexican/American. She was born and raised in Arizona, a lot of Mexicans live in Arizona.
Linda Ronstadt shared her family history in her book “Feels Like Home”. I love that she shared her Mexican heritage complete with photos of her family and their hometown of Banamichi, Sonora, Mexico. I also spent my childhood in the Sonoran Borderlands and her book is like walk walk through our diverse culture here. Many of my old friends were children of ranchers that have family on both sides of the border. She has really done a lot to bring an appreciation to the Sonoran Borderlands.
Her breath control is phenomenal !
Disagree with previous comment. Spanish is my second language. I read write & fluent speaking. Her Spanish is impeccable. Linda is Mexican American raised in Arizona,USA. She made an album in Spanish dedicated to her father.
Album: Canciones de mi padre
Translation:Songs of my father. Her father is German hence Ronstadt but raised in Mexican culture of Arizona.
In regard with The comparison with the romanian dances in a certain degree with the mexican dances, I just have to tell my friend merchandofalba that the mariachi music is an adaptation of the european music and european dances in Mexico and in the other hand remember that the mariachi are musicians and the charros are the charro cowboys and in the video the dancers are representing charros with elegant costumes.
Linda's Dad was Mexican and she sang these songs growing up. It really didn't become apparent that she was part Mexican until these records came out. She is amazing WHATEVER she sings. Listen to Her version of "Poor Wondering One" from the Pirates of Penzance and be even more amazed. I saw her lave more than a dozen times. I got to meet her a couple time as well.
Saludosssssssss un Abrazoteeeeeeeeeeeeeee 🇲🇽♥️🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽♥️🇲🇽
"México, te atrapa con su música ♩ ♪ ♫ ♬", y no te querrás escapar 🌽🌶🥑🌵
La Charreada is a regular thing in the US. There are regular events. So the English translation of La Charreada is "La Charreada".
Linda grew up in a Mexican American house hold. Her father was Mexican and Spanish was often spoken in the house. She made this album to show her father that she had not forgotten her heritage and to pay tribute to him m
No accent at all….authentic as helllllll…..it’s amazing
So beautiful
Linda is Mexican and yes she speaks Spanish an American person could never sings these type of Mexican songs if they didn't have the accent to do it. I as a Mexican can detect a slight accent very slight.she sings beautiful. You must react to her song Blue Bayou.
She's from Tucson Arizona. Mexican and German.
Linda won awards singing in i think 4 different genres
Sounds about right.
Many native Spanish speakers detect only a slight English (language) accent. Her grandfather was German who migrated to México, and then to northern México (now Arizona).
This album is the best selling American non-English speaking record of all time! Linda has 11 Grammys in addition to more than a few other accolades including induction into the National Rock & Roll Hall Of fame.
And she didn't speak Spanish she learned it but most of all she knew how to sing with anger and love. The way she hit the words and u guys dont even know
La chareada refers to a fiesta or celebration of Mexican cowboys - charros - & the Mexican rodeo - cherreria.
We grew up with her singing Blue Bayou, You’re No Good, Desperado……… then she came out with this album and like me, I’m sure MOST of our mouths DROPPED. We had no idea she could ing in Spanish, and she couldn’t UNTIL she did this album.
Linda probably was the first to cross all genres at that time. She is a very PROUD Mexican/Chicana. She is from Arizona, which was part of Mexico before Americans STOLE it. Ronstadt comes from her Grandfather, I believe he was part German or full.
💚
Rumanía. Parientes lejanos. Saludos!
Muy buena reacción amigos entienden muy bien el español arriba mi México lindo saludos desde Fremont California felicidades por su canal amigos
Linda is of Mexican decent. He father is Mexican. Actually, this concert is called " música de mi Padre" (my father's music). It's a tribute to her father and her Mexican roots. She sings fluently.
Her father was of Mexican descent ... so there is a great connection with Mexico!! When she slows down you can notice some wordings in Spanish with a bit of an accent, however, very small.
Mexican music is about storytelling of your feelings either about melancholy or happiness. To tell a story through singing is more important than showing off vocals, yet, mariachi in particular had a classical singing core, therefore, you must hit she pipes anyways.
Magnífica elección, saludos amigos.
Her Spanish is almost perfect!
Is impossible to tell !! She has no accent is perfect !! And im Mexican
"la charreada" means literally what in the US would be "the rodeo", Charro stuff as in cowboy stuff.. she is mixed in the sense that this album ("Songs from my father") were songs his father and grandfather heard or sang to her when she was little..
As I understand Linda can speak a little Spanish, just not fluently. In her other songs and interviews there is no hint, not a clue that she is of Mexican decent, AT ALL!! Just a super sweet person!
A native Spanish-speaking reactor suggested that there are just the slightest of hints that she's not a native speaker, but just a few tiny sounds at a few points. I think they were listening really hard to find them.
She is from a Mexican-German family in the Sonora desert, Tohono O D'ham nation.
She is Chicana/Mexican American on her fathers side of the family.
Spanish is not her first language. Her grandfather immigrated to Arizona from Germany hence “Ronstadt” a German name. She grew up in the Mexican culture on a rural ranch close to the border of Mexico. This is the culture of the Vaquero (Cowboy) and Rodeo.
HER DAD WAS MEXICAN AND SHE LEARNED SPANISH SINCE SHE WAS A BORN
You feel a little bid accent her father loved this music and she lived next in mexico
Tiny woman with HUGE VOICE!!!
Her Accent is Totally Mexican and Even the Form of Singing "It is the Correct Form of Mexican Ranchera Music." Since there are many well-pronounced words that exist in no Spanish-speaking country. Like Jaripeo, Charreada (not Rodeo).
I believe her father was in a Mariachi band. She cut her teeth as a child with mariachi.
su español es perfecto :O
Linda Ronstadt is a native English speaker with an American accent. She was raised as bilingual. Because of her German name, her Mexican heritage was a surprise to her fans.
Linda's grand mother was Mexican!!
Domenica your Spanish is great.
Yes. We can tell Spanish is not her 1st language. But she sings Mariachi very very well. She is part Mexican. I believe her dad was of Mexican descent. I have this whole album. Listened to it millions of times.
There is a documentary called The Sound of my Voice. It's about the life and career of Linda traced from her childhood in Tucson AZ through her decades long career and to her retirement in 2011 due to to Parkinson's disease.
Love you guys, I think that’s you have to react to her music in English she it’s of Mexican dissent on her father side!
Linda had some mexican blood I dont remember if her grandmother or her grandfather are mexican
Muito bom !!!
