Ronnie was really sometihng.

While her voice changed over the decades, becoming rougher, harder, infused with the raw gravitas of a hard life, it never lost its ability make you feel what she felt, a voice that conveyed so much more than the pedestrian lyrics she was often forced to sing.

Describing herself, she said “Every song is a little piece of my life. I’m just a girl from the ghetto who wanted to sing.”

RIP Ronnie.
