Roy Orbison - Crying live

[@austinteutsch]

I saw Roy Orbison in 1988 four months before his death. It was on Auditorium Shores in Austin, Texas. There was 15 thousand people there. It was HOT August night but he simply tore the house down! I mean I never heard anyone like that. When he hit those high notes, my friend and I just looked at each in amazement. it was a life changing experience.

[@Artem_Shipov]

Life changing. Same.

[@Koza480]

No one has yet come along to replace him!

[@tiffanyking2200]

Roy should have billions of views, his voice was absolutely perfect and beautiful. We thank and love you Roy!

[@booboo165able]

There's absolutely no doubt that Roy Orbison was one of the greatest singers/performers in the history of Rock & Roll. His magical voice could not be compared to any other singer in Rock & Roll history. It was such a tragic loss that we lost him at such a young age. A true genius in Rock & Roll history.

[@BillieSpencer-j9q]

Nobody like him I love him

[@may151960]

Roy Orbison's voice . . . . words cannot express the wonder of it. I have heard or listened to many great singers in my life. There is only ONE Roy Orbison.

[@gillrich7484]

may151960 oh yes

[@alicjaniewiarowska1669]

Love his music in 2020🎤👌💕👏👏👏

[@jenniferwells9032]

Agreed ❤️

[@michaelar.1912]

Yes, his voice is unique and brilliant. 💜

[@Koza480]

There will never be another Roy!

[@thomaskallmyr]

He Still Have The Best Voice Ever,Even If he is not living in Present Time. ❤ESCARGENCY ❤

[@BillyJango]

What a great man. I have no idea how he coped with the tragedy that happened in his life. Great voice and a great human being RIP.

[@loganscott2299]

I've always thought that the tragedies gave him the emotions needed for his songs

[@davidmorley1606]

My mom was at his last concert

[@donniev8181]

God is how he coped.

[@GUNSHIPFLEX]

I guess I could look it up but I’ll ask. What happened? Maybe an answer will help someone else with the same question.

[@SUKITA264]

Roy Orbison usou as adversidades da vida pra colocar mais emoção em suas músicas. Talento, Força e Deus deram forças ao Big O.

[@mirandac8712]

To say this guy is one of the greatest voices in rock and roll is totally absurd. His is one of the greatest voices of the century, any genre.

[@thomasquinnsr7102]

I absolutely loved the songs of Roy Orbison and the way he sings sends goosebumps on my arms!!!

[@robertedwards5184]

Give Roy the Standing Ovation he richly deserves. He was Unique. Superstar. 😇

[@drumsport]

Vocal Chords touched by The Hand of God.

[@AndySalinger33]

Good Lord, this is the voice of an angel. Roy was truly one of a kind. I challenge any “singer” today to top this. Roy makes me excited for Heaven.

[@donniev8181]

Amen

[@lindalee6279]

gosh I would of loved to be there. Roy is one of the few Greatest singers/ song writers ever.still today 10-21-22 .......RIP Roy such a beautiful soft voice....

[@TCBElvisAPresley]

Holy god. That's an amazing version, my eyes misted up--thinking about how we lost Elvis & Roy way too soon, Both were jaw-dropping talents, And both were genuinely decent, kind, and generous people as well.

[@maryrawson4324]

We all loved Roy Orbison in the 60's, can you imagine dancing with someone you love to this...

[@joenewbie4793]

I can and have.

[@Artem_Shipov]

I was 2 y.o. back then. Thanks God television was created to store these precious moments. Cheers from Russia ✌️

[@gravelandgrain100]

Many years ago someone told me you can't sing the blues, til you have had them...Roy was pure magic-and he had a really tough life-with sadness and heartache...we just got the best part of that left to us.

[@joenewbie4793]

I was lucky enough to meet him backstage, what a man, what a voice what a life. God blessed him. Still listening to 2019

[@ezragonzalez8936]

Both Elvis And Roy had Similar Vocal Timbre and Range just different singing technique Roy's Falsetto was fabulous But Elvis was the hunk of hunks and the greatest performer we will probably ever see again at least in our life time ..

[@JerkMorrison]

Why this doesn't have 79 million views is beyond me.

[@GUNSHIPFLEX]

One of a kind. Quiet, unassuming man with such a booming, iconic voice. Roy was one of a kind, even Elvis said Roy had the best voice he’s ever heard.

[@jameswrigley7817]

wow, this man's voice is something else!

[@fayehazel1986]

Simply other-wordly

[@jenniferwells9032]

I love Roy’s voice so much❤️

[@sarahgreen8729]

Me to it's just magic

[@timteevin4517]

You need to own A Black & White Night DVD. A good sound system helps. It never fails to make me smile.

[@SP330Y]

WOW - HOW IS HE THAT GOOD? - I KNOW HE IS BUT I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND HOW HE DOES IT - SO MUCH PASSION

[@Timliu92]

Roy Orbison = the Caruso of rock singing. So much finesse and elegance in the way he sings those powerful high notes, without any sign of brute force whatsoever.

[@drumsport]

Just now reading Roy's biography and the road was long and hard to stardom. RIP Sir.

[@Cashcrop54]

What an incredible voice! And he makes it look like he's barely trying! He is the one and only!

[@lancairw867]

Elvis said that Roy was his favorites singer 👍🏻

[@frankcurry6891]

The Greatest Pop Singer of All Time.

[@cyric28]

I'm watching this at 32 years old, my folks introduced me to Roy when I was 4 years old, I still remember the majority of the songs!

[@dustybeers]

I would have given everything I own to have that memory. You are a lucky person, indeed. Although I do remember seeing it on TV in 82. That's when Roy instantly became my #1 for all time. Incredible is all I can say about the man. I was a budding teenager at the time, and all that teenage angst w/girls and the like - Roy sounded as if he knew exactly what I was feeling at times. Only the Lonely, Crying, In Dreams, etc. Really helped me through. Thanks with all my heart, Roy!

[@judithc8831]

Love this❤️❤️❤️🌻🌹😍

[@chriskinkead9045]

He. Surely. Was. A. Great. Singer. Have. Enjoyed. His. Songs. For. Many. Years. Always. Will.

[@angelacrane9495]

In aww....u can hear the "cry" in his voice. Well done sir....RIP!

[@JuanGonzalez-wn8gy]

una voz maravillosa.genial.profunda.hermosa

[@babablowfish]

Thanks for posting this. I remember seeing this back in 1982. It was an amazing performance then and is all the more amazing today given the sorry state that popular music has fallen into. Ah, for the good old days when songs had melodies and the lyrics actually expressed real emotions.

[@mikeypee2365]

I never understood how Elvis was more popular. Orbison=GOAT

[@davidhenrywall8619]

He was a legend a great song great singer one of the best roy orbison never to be forgotten..

[@barbarawilson5685]

I grew up listening to his music will always be timess,such an amazing voice

[@darkknight17]

Fuck this song is so great, they don't do music like that any more. Sad times.

[@turkey55able]

It's the passion in Roy's voice when he sings!! Awesome!!! Roy also did an encore & the audience gave 2 standing ovations!! Roy Orbison Rules the Universe!! Both he & his music are timeless!!!!!!!!!!

[@geravijge71]

That voice makes me cry ........love everything from him. Great song :-)

[@deathlibrarian]

The big O... one of the greatest voices of all music

[@marcus96gmail]

I agree with the other post. This is the best version of this song I've ever heard !

[@AdeBamforth]

A masterwork in song construction... the way it keeps extending the verses with new parts, playing with different rhyming patterns, using different pitches, all gradually building to a crescendo... yet it sounds so simple, and with such a basic sentiment. 'I love you even more than I did before" is just devastating.

[@CosmicStargoat]

Yep, and the kids today just give me a blank stare when I ask them if they have listened to any of his music. It's a shame, but it can't be denied that Orbison was one of the greatest, if not the greatest male vocalists ever. His peers knew it.

[@paloma2355]

Great singer!! Sad song!! I love this song!!🌷

[@davidhenrywall8619]

Great singer a legend

[@coyotesong]

What a spectacular performance!!!! I spent a lot of time in Austin in the early 80s but missed this ACL. What I'd give to go back in time so I could be there. Simply superb.

[@BrianSeager-o7k]

no one could ever replace him wht a voice range

[@tomhogue3921]

Greatness

[@Coyotelover100]

Wow. I was 18 when I saw this concert. Had no idea at the time the Genius I sat with that morning. Thanks guys, for your care, your respect and yes Barb - even the interesting experience I had with your daughter. Richard..... I'll always remember. Cheers.

[@janaronson1736]

I HAVE ALL HIS RECORDS...WONDERFUL!

[@juliananicole1880]

Stunning

[@MrCalidan69]

Wow! Amazing! Thank you Roy

[@dustybeers]

You are right. I was a huge fan. Still am. I used to have an article (magazine of some sort) from not long before he passed, and admitted he still smoked, even though he knew his wife Barbara didn't allow it. It was funny because the interviewer was asking him about losing weight and looking better than he had in years, and if quitting smoking was one of the habits he kicked. He said he just exercised more, and ate a bit differently. In my book, YOU 'DA MAN, ROY! FOREVER THE BIG "O"

[@cuatrojinetes]

Wink, TX baby!

[@user-kj4bk5wd7k]

wow love his songs they are so much what I would write in a song.great manRIP

[@mikeletz3298]

Still a great singer and song

[@progrockertom]

this is the best version of this song i've heard, it's amazing

[@mechanicalmanny494]

Nobody will ever come close to that MAN vocal range on one note and not come up for air , Elvis bow your head . Yes I know Elvis is the greatest but you cannot put these guys together

[@ThrustusSimmonds]

Well, gosh. Stand back in awe. Unreal. The Great Man was certainly in fine form in this 1982 performance. Same gig had incredible version of Only The Lonely.

[@marjimartin5787]

What a loss still after all this time - will always be rembered!!

[@rhondaz356]

Roy was such a grest singer and song writer. He suffered so many tragedies in his way too brief time here.

[@Tangaloa1]

Outstanding musician!!

[@dickbuelow8968]

He was just Great!

[@Randy-2468]

Untouchable.

[@jacobcampbell8964]

[@gecbimiro2268]

[@cards1985]

That great voice. Amazing.

[@hirdy6]

Stunning.

[@doublefantasy77]

What a voice.

[@wiseal4827]

It is wonderful to see a performer so talented that no electronic manipulations are necessary to make them sound good. Roy's falsetto is flawless, it is difficult to hear the "switch". The closest artist I know is J. D. Souther.

[@bradleyrobinson7552]

What a Master!

[@mashishaconma]

wow,wow,wow. I never forget Roy `s Vois.

[@marksenum2226]

greatest...

[@MrMooka777]

that's exactly what I do when It comes to this music. I cry lonely teardrops.

[@JammyCrackcorn]

This was one of my favorites he did!!!

[@errol-ih4jy]

YEAH, WE ARE LOOKING AT THE BEST THATS EVER BEEN, IM GLAD I LIVED IN THE TIME OF ROY ORBISON, HIS SINGING LOOKED EFFORTLESS, BUT BENEATH IT ALL, I KNOW IT TOOK A LOT OF DISCIPLINE.

[@lindsaycooper9400]

This concert would have been the experience of a lifetime

[@JerkMorrison]

THE Voice.

[@leifpaul]

fantastic!!

[@ibdangler]

Just awesome.

[@lancekoller5284]
