It was also the second of four #1 Country albums for her. Hasten itself spent several weeks in the Top Three of the Billboard album charts. This was Ronstadt's third album to go Platinum. A seductive reworking of Patsy Cline's classic 'Crazy' was a Top 10 Country hit for Linda in early 1977. An exquisite treatment of the Tracy Nelson standard 'Down So Low' and two Ronstadt-penned songs completed an array of immaculately chosen and delivered songs. The album showcased Ronstadt by way of songs such as the likes of Warren Zevon's 'Hasten Down The Wind' and Karla Bonoff's 'Someone To Lay Down Beside Me', both of whom would indeed soon be making a name for themselves in the singer-songwriter world. It is a more serious, more poignant album than its predecessors and won immediate critical acclaim from critics and the general public alike. It represented a slight departure from 1974's Heart Like A Wheel and 1975's Prisoner In Disguise in that she chose to showcase new songwriters over the traditional Country Rock sound she had been producing up to this point. The album earned Linda her second of a record 10 Grammy Awards for Best Pop Vocal Performance, Female in early 1977.

The song appears on the compilation albums I'll Sleep When I'm Dead (An Anthology) and Genius: The Best of Warren Zevon. It is one of Zevon's more tender songs, even if dealing with such an unhappy relationship. His perception of her personality has changed so much since they met that he can't find the woman he loved, and is only hanging on to half her heart. In response she says that she would actually rather be with him, but the man comes to realize that this is only her way to keep him on the limb. In the end he comes to agree, she needs to be free. She tells him that 'she thinks she needs to be free', a euphemism for leaving him, noting that the relationship does not seem to be really working out. The song describes a man's turbulent relationship with a woman.

'Hasten Down the Wind' is a song from Warren Zevon's 1976 self-titled album.
