Roy Orbison was a Giant in the music business. He influenced so many artists, of various genres over 50 plus years, until he passed away.
He didn't stop influencing artists when he died, just sayin' 🙂 We are lucky to still have his body of work.
The videos from his 1988 "Roy Orbison and Friends: A Black and White Night" really showcase some of the many famous artists who looked up to him. Bruce Springsteen looked like a starry-eyed kid just happy to sing and play backup for his hero. Tom Waits was there, Elvis Costello, k.d. lang, and Bonnie Raitt, too... and Billy Idol was in the audience.
@@bcpr9812 As a Canadian, I'd add that he was a major supporter and mentor of k.d. lang, helping her breakthrough to American audiences by doing a duet with her on a late night talk show (and later in his Black and White concert) of this song. This was at a time where being out as a lesbian in the music business was usually career suicide, but Roy was the kind of man who cared for all people, and did what he could to support her career.
Umm he still influences after his passing.
Roy was awesome. His best known song was the original Pretty Woman
Roy was a favorite of all singers. They envied his voice.
to me, he and Karen Carpenter are on that other level, smoooth and crisp
@@wheelmanstan absolutely. They were class. She had perfect pitch.
Barry Gibb went all-fan-boy around him when they were recording with the Gatlin Brothers. Before they got to work, Gibb told his wife he was afraid he would embarrass himself around Orbison.
@@AlamoDame7 that's amazing. Great story. Thanks for sharing it.
@@AlamoDame7 yeah roy was a fantastic guy, Elvis thought really highly of him, I mean he said he had the perfect voice and was the best singer in the world haha, they both respected each other a ton, Elvis wouldn't even want to share a stage with him our of respect and Roy would attend Elvis concerts his whole life
You can't find a bad Orbison song. They are all great.
AMEN AND AMEN, BROTHER!!
Beyond right!
"Elvis " and Roy started out at almost exactly the same time in 1956. Both were 18 yrs old. They ended up signing a record contract with a new, just starting out record label, (like them) called "Sun Records." Guess who else signed with that upstart record label? Johnny Cash! In fact, there is a picture of all three of those young men together in a little office of this new little record label together. None of them is older than 23. Elvis and Roy were just 18 years old. Elvis said Roy Orbison had the voice of an Angel, and he would trade voices with him in a minute! That's saying something. Roy had incredible range in his voice, hitting those very high notes. All three remained close friends until Elvis, and then Roy died. Roy had horrible things happen to him and his family over the years. Wife, and son died in a fire, and then he lost another child in a later marriage. Roy was a man of faith, and always said God was in control, and he would see those who were taken, when he went to Heaven.
What a guy. So much faith in God.
Just a little correction; Roy's wife died in a motorcycle accident & 2 of their (3) sons were killed in a house fire. June 6, 1966, Roy & Claudette were riding motorcycles. She hit a truck that pulled out in front of her & died in Roy’s arms. Sept. 14, 1968, while Roy was on tour, sons Roy Dewayne, age 10, & Anthony King, age 6, died in a house fire. Roy’s parents were able to save the youngest, Wesley, age 3 (& they ended up raising him). Roy later wed Barbara & they had 2 children (Roy Kelton & Alexander).
Don't forget Carl Perkins!
He was in that famous Sun Studio photo too.
@@jamespasifull3424 Carl was the father of rockabilly guitar, along with Bill Haley -- but Carl was such an amazing gentlemen, right up to his death on talk shows you could tell what a fine man he was.
The four singers associated with the Million Dollar Quartet were Elvis, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash and Jerry Lee Lewis.
Not sure where you got this info but in 1956 Roy Orbison was 20 years old and Elvis was 21, Neither were 18 years old in 1956...Elvis was 18 in 1953, the year he signed up for the draft. And Johnny Cash was 24 in 1956...Where ever you copy and pasted all these events are way off the mark.. The years and ages are all wrong and the deaths of Roy's family are incorrect. I was a teen ager in the late 40's early 50's growing up with all three of these men, and when reading your post I knew it was incorrect
This was recorded 1961... 60 years ago and still holds up today... a true classic... I still have the 45 RPM
One of the best vocalists of all time!
Kd lang did a cover of this song.Roy was very impressed and told her she owned this song
Love love love her version.
It is perfection!
PLEASE DO THIS VERSION 🙏
Yeah people need to stop being in denial, sometimes remakes are better and there's no problem with that because there would be no remake without the original. But most of the time I can't stand remakes and have zero interest in covers. haha, remakes are like sequels and sequels are almost all not worth seeing, a couple remakes that kill are SRV's Voodoo Child, Daryl Singletary's Old Violin, Lyle Lovett's The Highway Kind, Jack Ingram's Desperado's Waiting for a Train..stuff like that, yeah I can mostly just think of country at the moment, haha
They did a duet of it which I love.
Roy Orbison is the one to listen to if you want to hear songs about feelings. Try "Only The Lonely" and "In Dreams" and "I Drove All Night" just to start with.
Definitely listen to Only the Lonley
A good start is right. Listen to all the Roy Orbison songs you can find.
The Great Pretender
Roy was a true original, he created some truly epic songs and really brought something special to the party. A big influence on future artists who wanted to create something more than three chord rock.
Magnificent! It might sound like a simple song but if you really listen, it isn't a simple song at all. It's a master piece imo. R.I.P. Roy xx
The qualities of being a masterpiece and being simple are not necessarily mutually exclusive. However, in a very real sense this song was simple in comparison to so many modern songs, which tend to be very overdone, with so many different things going on at the same time. Too many modern songs just don't give the listener time to take a breath. When it comes to true musical quality, less is often more.
He sang at a club in DC called The Bayou 4 years before he died. The place was packed. When he sang this, he got a five-minute standing ovation. He then sang "Running Scared". NOBODY MOVED. We were mesmerized by his voice. Absolutely stunning.
I used to love the Bayou. Sad that it closed.
How lucky.
I went to The Bayou a lot in the 80's & 90's. Saw Dire Straits there, U2, Taj Mahal, and many others. Sadly I missed Roy Orbison He was one of the best of all time.
Roy Orbison had a haunting smoky voice that was unmistakable and had several hits and later in his life was a member of the super group The Traveling Wilburys
Best Roy Orbison song “live” for me is Running scared.
He’s really great live - his voice was remarkable.
This man is a legend!
From what I have heard, not only was Roy greatly admired and respected as a singer and songwriter by his contemporaries, but he was also a genuinely kind human being, and that no one had a bad word to say about him. He later did a version of this song with kd lang, that Asia will love! Cheers,
Blue Bayou is a must listen to !!!!
Most people can't sing this song without a little manipulation. The needed range is enormous.
Chris Isaak would come closest - a good range and similar singing style. But it is a huge range!
Manipulation of the crotch ? Ugh
@@bigs1546 ‘Raquel & Tony’s’ performance of ‘Cwying’ in ‘Only Fools & Horses’ is my favourite th-cam.com/video/5g1oSN8Ldd0/w-d-xo.html 😁
The extraordinary thing was that he opened his mouth just a little bit, and his body remained motionless. Artists like Springsteen, Harrison and Bono all commented this.
Roy Orbison was the rock and roll balladeer with an almost operatic voice, with a range somewhere between 3 and 4 octaves, an emotionally vulnerable male singer at a time when men typically didn't show that kind of vulnerability. His song structures are unique, no one wrote a song quite how Roy did. He also was my mom's favourite when she was a teenager, and he's still her favourite now that she's 70.
Elvis and Roy were good friends. Elvis told him he had the greatest voice he ever heard.
Roy actually wanted Elvis to do "Only The Lonely." Roy said he'd just written it, was driving from TX to the studio in Memphis, stopped by Graceland, intending to play it for Elvis & see if he wanted to record it. It was about 6am & Elvis sent word (to the gate) that everyone was still sleeping, so Roy left & drove to the studio, where he offered it to Phil Everly, who wasn't impressed, so Roy decided he'd just record it himself (which he did a few days later).
Don't forget - the respect for women in these old songs is not present in a lot of today's "music".
Wtf you on about. She hurt him. She doesnt need respect haha
Well, I need respect, and using the "F" word does not do it for me. Sad.
The Man….Roy Orbison!!!
You need to hear "In Dreams" by Roy. What a performance! He had such a challenging life. Lost a wife to a motorcycle accident and even lost a child to a fire in his home while he was away.
Yes In Dreams for sure, then “Running Scared” and “It’s Over”
Lost 2 of his 3 son's in that fire!
To really hear how great his voice was listen to The Traveling Wilburys song Handle With Care. 5 famous voices sing together and separately. George Harrison of The Beatles, Jeff Lynn of Electric Light Orchestra, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, and Roy. When he sings his solos there is a distinct improvement of tone. Multiple great artists have said that his voice intimidated them.
Before he passed he was a member of the Traveling Willburys including
George Harrison
Bob Dylan
Tom Petty
Jeff Lynne Try
Handle With Care
End of the Line
Yeah I have been waiting to see this. I love his voice.
💜
The most famous of all the singers of my time in the 60's, I bought just about every 45 record he made and always learned and played both sides. Great singer with an ultimate range of voice.
TY, please do / You Got It / it's Roy doing his new hit song in Antwerp, Belgium, he died just 17 days later of a sudden heart attack, Roy Orbison was 52 years old.
One of the amazing things about Roy was that when you saw him perform this or any of his other songs live, hitting those high notes or that powerful ending, seemed effortless. Most singers would be making agonized faces trying to sell the song. Roy just opened his mouth and the magic flowed out. He did a duet with kd lang later on for the soundtrack to the movie Hiding Out that is well worth listening to. Their voices blended very well together.
He'd roar those high notes while barely opening his mouth!
I love Roy..and Asia has a beautiful smile
Roy Orbison was one of my favs. He has many other great songs. K D Lang also recorded it. She did him justice...
You made a lot of people who join the live streams very happy with this reaction. Thank you! 💜 When I took dance lessons, Roy Orbison was a common artist the instructors liked to use because of the tempo/timing, but the emotion in his voice always physically moving for me.
Crying..over you...
Roy was a gifted artist...but had a tragic life...fires..death..loss...he put all that in his songs of longing...
One of my first loves in music...thank you for the reaction...🌿🌿🌿
A lot of tears shed over this song in my day. Roy Orbison is a classic. He influenced so much music to come after him.
My funeral song I picked is by Roy,. It's called. ( Life fades away ) 🎶🎶🎶🎶💔💔
Yes! Yes! I was looking for a comment, about this song. That's the same for me, but I also dedicated it to my grandma, who I lost in December 10th of 2016. I would really appreciate it, if they did a dedication video, with that song, for my grandma.
December, Remember
In the case that y'all are seeing this, don't worry about mentioning me, but please mention her, Dovie. If y'all would do it, on the 10th, that would be much appreciated.
The most beautiful voice ever. I got to see him in augusta Maine in . He got a standing ovation after every song.
Orbison's song "In Dreams" was featured as part of the late 80s movie "Blue Velvet." The song was actually a part of the plot of the movie. And the way that was done was stunning. It's easy to find clips from the movie on TH-cam where that song is being played in a certain famous scene, because it's become a classic.
I'll never forget seeing Roy Orbison in concert. Near the end of the show he walked on stage playing the guitar intro to Pretty Woman and when the song was over he walked off stage to thunderous applause. A minute later he walked on stage and performed Pretty Woman a second time. I've never seen another artist do this. Legend! Also, Roy could sing heartache because he really lived it. A couple of years after his wife died in a motorcycle accident...two of his sons, out of his 3 children, died in a house fire. They were at home in the US and he was performing in England. So tragic.
Legendary man ❤ Elvis once said he wished he could sing the high notes like Roy, yes Elvis was envious of his voice. Pretty Woman !!!! A must listen 🎶
Bruce Springsteen said it best when he said everyone wants to sing like Roy Orbison but everyone knows that no one sings like Roy Orbison.
" the comedians", and " california blue" are my favorites...but " i drove all night", " youve got it", are a close second!!!
His voice is a gift 💝
I was a kid in grade school when he did Pretty Woman. I remember singing along when played on the radio. The 60's was such a great time to grow up as a kid. We had such great music and cool American cars then.
Damn.....this song always gets to me......I started to sing along with it ....and guess what...I started to cry.
Running scared is a song that starts out so slow and low and ends up amazing
The Black And White concert by Roy Orbison is a must see. The entire concert is absolutely phenomenal. And the superstars he has as his band and backup singers are amazing.
Your like the first I have seen to react to Roy Orbison, and listening to this brings me back to my childhood. I grew up in his birth town of Vernon Texas. Such a great singer.
As a fan, of The Big O, (that is how Roy was referred to) I love to see that younger generations are appreciating Roy's Music. I follow a lot of the singers from Roy's time. All I can say is that they were each one of a kind. There will never be another Roy Orbsion etc...
You should hear Roy Orbison singing this song with K.d Lang. It's amazing.
Hi Asia and BJ Great choice Roy had a 4 octave range other classics of his you might like to check out "In Dreams" "Blue Bayou" "It's Over" "Dream Baby" "Only The Lonely" Great quote about Roy's Vocal talents was from Bono (U2 Lead Singer) was that Roy couldn't just sing about being broken-hearted, He could sing broken-heartedly which sums Roy up perfectly. All the best from across the pond Jim, Surrey, England X
Roy Orbison one of the great voices of rock and roll.
My favorite Roy song has always been You Got It!
i grew up with alot of roy . my dad "rip" used to sing like that , he was a great roy sound alike. loved this guys .
You gotta check out the Traveling Willburys. Roy, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, George Harrison and Jeff Lynne. Handle Me With Care is my fave.
One of the greatest. Also lived a very sad and tragic life. It make's you admire the man even deeper than his music
You guys have to check out the duet of this song with Roy & K.D. Lang. It is simply stunning.
It was so nice growing up at a time when music was this good.
Roy could sing like a force of nature. This song and “Blue Bayou” are like two book ends. So similar , both beautiful.
It's very simple. but it's a simple story. one we all know. by the way, he's an amazing guitarist. And his vocal style is incredibly unique in my opinion. It's like he can yell while whispering, if that makes sense
Roy Orbison top the charts from 1961 - 1964 with 16 of his biggest hits. I was actually listening to him this morning on my playlist… small world 🌎
Back in the day, it wasn't unusual for a man to admit his own emotions such as sadness, vulnerability, and crying in their songs. Men feel these things and a real MAN, comfortable with their masculinity, can admit those things. It's a good example for young boys and young men to see that what they feel, and they do feel those things, are normal for men to feel. It doesn't make you less of a man, it makes you a human man, a normal man.
It's hard to understand how so many people think that men are less emotional than women are.
What are you talking about? That might be generally true but music was one of the few places where it was always acceptable. Standards, soul, country, all of them are filled with tear jerkers in the 40s, 50s, and 60s
K.D. lang did an awesome and moving tribute to Roy with crying.
Roy's solo part in The Traveling Wilburys "Handle with care" always gives me goosebumps!!!!
I was brought up listening to Roy was my mum's favourite
Awesome. My favorite singer songwriter.
At a tribute concert for Roy Orbison held in LA, on February 24,1990, K D Lang sang Crying and brought down the house it was so beautiful.
I saw Roy Obison in 1980 when he opened for The Eagles during their Long Run tour. I was a immediate fan, even though he was a music generation before me. I would be shocked if you haven't already heard his hit "Pretty Woman" as it was covered in many movies. His songs are all great, please do more.
I don't think you realise quite how glorious and spectacular this song, or his voice is. Not one of your better reactions.
Roy Orbison and his good friend Linda Ronstadt. The two best vocalists of the 20th century.
Roy Orbison Is Legend. Was Elvis's Favorite Singer. 😁💗🤘
Roy Orbison was magnificent. His ballads are timeless. Please play In Dreams. He was also a member of The Traveling Wilburys which had a number of super musicians including Roy Orbison.
Always enjoy watching you two react to early rock classics. "Crying" is probably one of the most spectacular songs and performances of all time. I played my 45rpm copy to death as a teenager back then.
"You Got It"
from 1989 is an absolute classic.
So many of the great old rock and rollers of the 60s and 70s and even 80s always - always - mentioned Roy Orbison as an inspiration and a mentor. he was a quiet guy, but a giant if you listen to people like Springsteen and Dylan and many others.
A legend. ❤❤❤❤❤
He is a legend I wish you two could appreciate that, shove off.
Thank you for this. It has already been said but Roy Orbison was one of the most influential singer/songwriters in his time (Beatles, Springsteen, Everly Brothers, U2, Eagles, KD Lang, Linda Ronstadt and the list goes on and on). But more importantly he was genuinely a kind and gentle man that loved his family and his craft. A true gentleman in every sense of the word and I miss him. But his music lives on and continues to inspire to this day. Rest in Love Roy and thank you!
Without question, in my opinion, one of the best voices in Rock & Roll history. He had so many songs that i loved, and my favorite of all is " In Dreams".
Roy was a awesome singer !Love all his songs !
When Roy Orbison began picking up steam most critics agreed that his style and music (most self-written) transcended all popular American music forms. When he did his first run-through of this song with orchestra backing -- and hit his high notes -- the orchestra just stopped cold in amazement.
Factoid: on tours Roy Orbison carried glasses and sunglasses (both prescription). When he was touring England in the early 1960's with the Beatles (who idolized him) he lost his regular glasses just before going on stage. So he opted for his sunglasses and realized they were much better for him on stage because they helped him suppress his natural stage fright.
His range was like no one else!!
the original .....THE VOICE!
Hope you guys had a wonderful Thanksgiving and thank you for always being here for us
Roy Orbison - You Got It ( awesome songv)
He’s one of the best…so effortless and I love his throaty singing
I've been close to the rockabilly scene for a long time...
NO ONE tries to do this song!!! Not ONE BAND! Why?! Because NO ONE could do it justice! And we ALL KNOW THAT WE CAN'T!!!
Roy was one of those voices that you don't even PRETEND you can be!!! The absolute MASTER...
He was a master of the melodramatic love song. 'In Dreams' is probably my favorite of all, but 'Oh, Pretty Woman' is probably the best known. He had a LOT of hits in the early 60s and was extremely influential over the British Invasion groups that idolized him.
this guys voice...wow. 1 in a million. rip Roy. love ya.
RIP Roy Orbison. Greatness. There is a Roy Orbison special on video with music greats on stage with him in tribute to Roy.
One of the finest voices in music. Elvis thought so to and said he didn't ever want to follow him in a show. He has a very sad life story started with losing his wife
Great song. Singing from the heart. Both of you are great reactors. I can tell you are really listening to every note and word. Thank you!
I remember when I was young in the mid 60s, and my parents had Everly Brothers records from the 50s/60s, on one of those the ‘B’ side was Claudette written by Roy Orbison.
Bruce Springsteen's speech for Roy Orbison's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction in 1987!
"In 1970, I rode for fifteen hours in the back of a U-haul truck to open for Roy Orbison at the Nashville Music Fair. It was a summer night and I was 20 years old, and Orbison came out in dark glasses, a dark suit and he played some dark music. In 1974, just prior to going into the studio to record my album Born To Run, I was looking at Duane Eddy for his guitar sound and I was listening to a collection of Phil Spector's records and Orbison's All-Time Greatest Hits. I'd lay in bed at night with just the lights of my stereo on and I'd hear 'Crying', 'Love Hurts', 'Running Scared', 'Only The Lonely', and and 'It's Over' filling my room. Orbison's voice was unearthly. He had the ability, like all great Rock and Rollers, to sound like he dropped in from another planet and yet get the stuff that was right to the heart of what you were livin' in today, and it was how he opened up your vision. I carry his records with me when I go on tour today, and I'll always remember what he means to me and what he meant to me when I was young and afraid to love. In 1975, when I went into the studio to record, Born To Run, I wanted to make a record with words like Bob Dylan, that sounded like Phil Spector's productions, but most of all I wanted to sing like Roy Orbison. Now, everybody knows that nobody sings like Roy Orbison."
Uniqe singer and an amazing song writer. Gone to soon.
First time hearing this or if him and it was nice
Roy was considered the voice of that era!
Roy had a beautiful voice
I was fortunate to see Roy twice. His vocals live were SOARING! He was a pillar for so many of the greats to follow (Beatles). Imagine turning on your radio late at night and finding the station from 150 miles away...the sound crackles til you get the dial in the sweet spot. Then this voice comes soaring of the airwaves and ends with the still of the night! The magic of Roy Orbison!
"BLUE BAYOU" has always been my fav . one of my dad's best sung songs .
