A great single that combines the lightness of country pop with melancholy.
Her cover of Buddy Holly's classic "It's So Easy" reached number 5 on the Billboard Hot 100. The B-side, "Lo Siento Mi Vida," is a ballad with Spanish lyrics that showcases her multifaceted singing.
"It's So Easy" features an arrangement that embodies the light-heartedness of 1970s American pop, with Ronstadt's expansive voice dancing over a clear rhythm. The sound is more lustrous than the original, showcasing the strength and suppleness of the female vocals. "Lo Siento Mi Vida" leaves an impression with its melancholic vocals, highlighting the expressiveness of her ability to freely switch between English and Spanish. This single is extremely polished.
