"Crying", "Only the Lonely", "Running Scared", and "In Dreams" are some of his other great hits. Note: if you do "Crying" you can do the original version or the duet he did with k.d. lang, a PHENOMENAL female artist that you have yet to react to. This might be the perfect introduction. RIP Roy (1936-1988).

Just to clarify, any video from his "Black and White Night" concert will be an amazing experience. It was a televised concert that was filmed LIVE in September 1987, and aired on Cinemax in January 1988. Roy passed away in December of 1988. His band included many of Elvis Presley's Band, and featured back up singers K.D. Lang, Bonnie Raitt, and Jennifer Warnes. On top of that, Bruce Springsteen, Elvis Costello, Jackson Browne, Tom Waits, and others also joined him on stage that night. It was all filmed in black and white. Pay attention to the audience as well. Many famous faces were in the crowd, including: David Lynch, Billy Idol, Patrick Swayze, and Kris Kristofferson, among others. Also, The morning after it was filmed, an earthquake caused damage to the venue the concert had been filmed in just hours before, and all the footage of the concert was nearly lost, but apparently, fate stepped in, and the tapes miraculously took no damage, despite chandeliers and other debris falling directly on top of them, preserving the night for us to continue to enjoy. There is also a version of it called "Black and White Night 30", which is the remastered, 30 year anniversary edition, and adds a few more songs that were played that night, but not originally released.

He was signed by Sam Phillips of Sun Records in 1956, but enjoyed his greatest success with Monument Records. From 1960 to 1966, 22 of Orbison's singles reached the US Billboard Top 40. He wrote or co-wrote almost all of his own Top 10 hits, including "Only the Lonely" (1960), "Running Scared" (1961), "Crying" (1961), "In Dreams" (1963), and "Oh, Pretty Woman" (1964). Peace out.

Totally agree. KD Lang sang Crying at a tribute to Roy Orbison that was AMAZING. She has a voice out of this world.

Completely agree, and K.D. Lang singing Hallelujah is absolutely magical!

It was K.D. Lang's (Solo) version of "Crying" that made me a fan of hers. Her tribute was/is more then worthy of Roy and his talents. A true honor and privilege to listen to, just like Roy himself.

Many years ago, when Roy was still with us, I worked in a large wholesale/retail warehouse and one day one of the bread vendors brought in a relative to help him. I did a double take because Roy Orbison was standing there. I have always been a fan and I went over to him and said he looked exactly like Roy. He told me he is an impersonator in Vegas shows. A week later he brought me a tape of songs he recorded and had Roy Orbison autograph it for me. Awesome.

What we love about his voice? It’s the sound. It’s magical and beautiful. That’s all. You got it. So many great songs. I play his greatest hits album on repeat.

"Anything you want, you got it, anything you need, you got it." I highly suggest his "Only The Lonely." One of his many classic hits. Movie suggestions: As Good As It Gets (1997) with Helen Hunt and Jack Nicholson and Alive (1993) with Ethan Hawke and Vincent Spano, based on a true story. Nice reaction as usual guys.

Going through your channel and noticing your love of the Bee Gees, their song from 1997 "Alone" just blew me away the first time I heard it. Became an instant favorite for me.

Anything Roy touched was gold, one of my favorites through the decades, but "Crying" is one you have to react to. It shows his range and beautiful voice.

Roy had a brilliant voice, he was also in the Traveling Wilburys, other songs include - I drove all night, Pretty woman and only the lonely his songs are all written about his life for example Claudette was his wife and he wrote the song for her, his voice is golden 🎸🎼

Top three Roy Orbison masterpieces: "Running Scared", "In Dreams" and "It's Over". But there are many more.

Thank you for considering this song to review. Roy Orbison was one of those once in a lifetime artists who could write songs, play the instruments, and had the voice to sing them. Arguably one of the best pure singing voices ever with a great range. There is a KZbin performance where he performed this on a German awards show. Please watch that video, as Roy I asked shortly after it was made.

He is best known for his beautiful ballads. His song “In Dreams” ( must hear studio version) is maybe the most beautiful song ever. The highs he hits on that one are incredible; also “Crying” He started at Sun records with Elvis, Johnny Cash and Jerry Lee Lewis. They would bring Orbison in sometimes to sing behind Elvis; when Elvis couldn’t hit certain high notes. Saw him in person in the 80s..Amazing, amazing, amazing!!!

"In Dreams" is so hauntingly beautiful that it almost makes me start "Crying".

It does that to me too! Despite all the heart breaks he had in his life, he always kept a strong faith in God, and a very gentle demeanor.
@thomasg59682 жыл бұрын
If you really, really, REALLY want to hear him at his best… he sings a solo song with The Traveling Wilburys called “Not Alone Anymore.” His range in this song is no short of amazing! You will not regret it….

Orbison's voice was from another world. And he sounded exactly the same live - no studio enhancement.

Roy's rebirth in the 80's was a triumph well deserved. Between his solo work and that with the Traveling Wilburys, his renaissance was a breath of fresh air in the rock world. Gone too soon, Roy. RIP.

There are some great voices of the era, Elvis, Roy Orbison, Cat Stevens, and Tom Jones to name a few of those rich voices that can mesmerize.

Roy Orbison undoubtedly the Caruso of POP/Rock Music. His rich vocal tone and vibrato at all pitch levels, and his 4+ Octave voice is one that doesn't come along but maybe once every 3rd generation. When Elvis was in the Prime of his vocal abilities someone asked him how he felt to have one of the greatest voices of all time. Elvis' response was, "Go Ask Roy Orbison". In 1988, when Roy had passed, George Harrison was asked if he would be replacing Roy as one of the Traveling Wilbury's. His response, "Well, you really can't replace Roy Orbison". And, they never did.

In Dreams is my favourite Roy Orbison song. He had one of the greatest voices in music, he could reach those notes effortlessly.
