I got the chance to see him in concert in 1980. In my military uniform, was walking past the venue when someone asked me if I wanted his ticket since he had to work that night. Truly a blessing to get a chance that I wasn't expecting. To whoever you were that gave me that ticket, THANK YOU!!
Apache Junction Az 1985-ish, at a Circle K in the middle of nowhere I recognized his silhouette through a heavily tinted Volkswagen, his driver was in the convenience store, and so was my girlfriend. My girlfriend came out first and I told her who it was but I could not remember his name. There were Tennessee tags on the car. I said that’s the guy that sings the song pretty woman. So she went over and knocked on the window, he rolled it down and she asked him are you the guy that sings that song pretty girl… he laughed.. he said yes but it’s called pretty woman. This was in a gravel parking lot in the middle of nowhere. 🙂
My heart dropped a country mile when Roy passed away, I had met him while moving furniture for a company that catered to music stars. A brief meeting meant I would never forget his voice and love it to this very day...
He truly was one of a kind...his voice
penetrated the soul ....🎶
Cried like a baby when he passed. Singularly the greatest voice in popular music…
I've been in love with Roy Orbison since I was a teenager of 13, I'm almost 60 now. Roy had a unique and distinct voice, unforgettable!! Rest In Peace!! 💜
I thought Roy Orbison was one of the most Beautifullest singers. He could sing in seven octaves. He was a better singer than Elvis Presley ever thought about being. My mom liked Elvis Presley. I did like Elvis too but I liked Roy Orbison better he’s one of the great ones. May he rest in peace miss him and miss his great music I wonder what he would be like today and he lived long enough. I often wonder the same thing about John Lennon. And George Harrison too. Thanks for the video. Have a beautiful day.👍❤️😁🥲🎸🎼🎵🎶☮️
From his struggle with personal tragedies to his unparalleled musical legacy, Orbison's story is a poignant reminder of the power of resilience and creativity.
There will never be another Orbison. the man defined the word Legend , an oft-used word seldom deserved by whom it was aimed at but in Orbison's case it was a true description.Many songs define that epic voice, Running Scared is a fine example which made the hairs on your neck stand with the intensity,Walk on,Love Hurts and Crawling Back are other fine examples. My own personal favourite is A Love So Beautiful as it is so full of emotion that it could break the hardest of hearts and even a grumpy old dog's like mine I have been an Orbison fan for more years than I can remember and I still love to sit and let his music wash all over me.
I always loved Roy Orbison. Fantastic songs performed by a Brilliant Singer
What a voice. Such a talented man
The most important part of Roy’s career is when he used all of his talents to create a great sound unlike any other musician who ever worked in the industry. ROY ORBISON WAS A GIFTED VOICE LIKE ELVIS PRESLEY ONLY WITHOUT THE GREAT LOOKS AND CHARM! ROY ORBISON MADE IT ON HIS OWN SOUNDS! This is why Roy Orbison is in my book greater than Elvis Presley because Roy proved that raw God given talents are just as great as beauty that’s only skin deep! I enjoyed hearing Roy’s music in my youth and I was a little one when I first hear Roy sing!
The Traveling Wilburies were the best supergroup every made and it was all in fun
When I was in Vietnam Roy came to our modest base on a USO tour (1970)...after the show he told the band that he was going to stay. The band said that they had to be on the road the next day. They then ask how long he was going to stay....I will never forget what he said, "as long as they want me"...he was there for 'us' ....we got to do the uba-dube with man who made it...I will never forget
I consider myself fortunate to have seen Roy Orbison perform live on two separate occasions. Although these shows were just a few years from what we now know to have been some of his final performances - he never failed to bring the audience to their feet and a wild frenzy when he hit those notes that everyone knew were coming. Many folks I know listen to music and only hear the tune, I hear the tune also but I pay close attention to the lyrics and the story the song tells. Nobody told better stories in their songs that Roy Orbison. Ask a hundred people what their favorite Roy Orbison song is and the predictable answer is "Pretty Woman" and while that is a great song and universally recognized as Roy's song, my all time favorite Orbison song is and will always be, "In Dreams". If you haven't heard it for some time, look it up nd listen, really listen to the story the song tells. Fabulous song writing and performance. Rest In Peace, Roy, you have earned it.
He visited a young fan in a Reading hospital who was in a coma after being attacked by a psycho on a train.Her family had been playing his records to her to try to revive her and when he heard of her plight he visited her in hospital.
Roy had a gretch guitar with a Gibson les Paul neck!! And the greatest voice in music!! Love that Roy!! RIP
❤in Melbourne Australia 🦘,we said he had the voice of an angel 😇❤
I loved his music, he was one of my favorites. I used to sing "Pretty Woman" to my wife! Great memories!
I love all his music but the best for me is In Dreams. This man had a magnificent voice, and I listen to his music very often.
A love so beautiful.A man so wonderful! All his songs touch our hearts. I can listen to him all day long. There will never be a singer anymore like Roy. Your songs will go on for generations and generations, till the end of times. Rest in peace with Almighty God and His angels❤
What a voice, this man had, he was great,💕
It's a profound loss that Roy Orbison, a true music celebrity with his unique voice and extraordinary talent, left us so suddenly. His life and career not only gave us timeless melodies but also inspired future generations of artists. His sudden departure is indeed a great regret to the music world
Roy Orbison had the voice of an angel.
Elvis once described Roy's singing as 'operatic hillbilly'...I thought it as a great compliment.
RIP Roy Orbison
I miss him still! To me his voice sounded like therapy! 😊
Loved his music and sorry we lost him way too soon!! God bless him and his family.
The Big O . What a fantastic singer / Songwriter .Amazing Voice . A one of Roy
Always loved Roy 's singing. His voice was identifiable and unique. ❤
Roy Orbinson was the only man ever to have an 8 octive range voice!! ❤
I’m glad I got to see him perform before he died. Great musician, RIP
Always liked Roy, definitely a musical genius ❤😊
One my uncles played guitar with Roy orbison in wink in 50s Foy Brown
One my all time favorite.
Thank you. Always loved his music. I think I once heard that Elvis said that Roy Orbison was his favorite singer.❤
I heard Elvis said that Roy Orbison had the best voice that he (Elvis) had ever heard. Elvis had great respect for Roy Orbison.
Amazing performances
As a big Fan of Roy Orbison Never Could Hear Enough of His Fantastic Voice - Songs
One of the great and amazing voices ever exist.We never forget this beautiful man with his voice of an angel.Gone to soon! A great Legend! R.i.p.Roy❤
I loved Roy and his beautiful voice. , he was wonderful , Rest in heavenly peace sweet friend, your really missed , but I know your busy entertaining the other angels with your beautiful voice and smile,
Thank you so very much for this great video about Roy Orbison!!!! I really love Roy Orbison!!! I loved/love his song, “Pretty Woman” so much!! and I love lot of these other songs that they’ve mentioned here or you have mentioned here, that I can’t quite remember the name of!!! I loved his falsetto/high notes that he would hit!!! You guys didn’t even mention that I don’t think!?!? Anyway, he was very unique and original as far as I know, not being a musician myself!!! Very sad to hear in depth more of the story of the housefire with his two sons dieing, and about his health later on in life with his heart, his smoking, etc.!!! Happy to hear about his successes, though here and there!!! He was, and is a great man, and it’s nice to see his sons making sure his dad is not forgotten!!! A great fan…❤ Gay Michaelis
I lovec Roy's music. His voice was beautiful.
Roy was born in Vernon, Texas, but grew up in Wink, Texas. I lived in Kermit, Texas, 7 miles from Wink. I had a brother who was about Roy's age. My brother went to all the Dances played by Roy and his Wink Westerners. I was just a little guy, but I remember going to a street dance in Kermit that the Wink Westerners were playing. Roy and his band also played on KERB radio in my hometown, Kermit. I would sit with my older brothers and listen to his music on the radio. I guess the first song I really loved was SLEEPY HOLLOW. By the time I started High School, I was a big Roy Orbison fan. I guess my favorite band in those days was THE SEEKERS out of Australia.❤❤
He was determined and succeeded- kudos to him.
😊 A great singing entertainer with a wonderful voice and style! What a sad early end.
Always loved his music, I thought he had mesmerizing voice!
I grew up listening to Elvis as far back 1954 when I was only 4 and I was born in Texas so Elvis was hot on the charts and I loved his music . I wasn't introduced to Roy's music till 1960 when I was 9 years old and I loved it. Throughout the years I grew fond of golden oldies Elvis and Roy Orbison. As an adult a couple of my marriages fell apart so I became aware of all the music I had listened to had suddenly came alive in lyrics they all now had a place in my life as well as in my heart. Roy's voice and lyrics got me through some of my dark days in my life and I also discovered that I could sing and I was told that I sound like Elvis and Roy which I consider a blessing that I sound like my two favorite singers.i was truly blessed by their music. People say I should do something with my voice but at age 73 now I'm content to just sing to friends that love Elvis and Roy
I didnt know he died so young. He sure had talent. Lived a lot of his music
Roy orbison had alot of health problems. He didnt take care of his health very well. He was one of the greatest singers
I am 79 and Alexa puts me to sleep every night playing Roy Orbison music.
This was great - thank you. I still rate his Black and White Night concert as one of the best surround sound concerts, ever.
Yeah, "pretty woman", great one❤
Saw him live on a UK tour he headlined back in the 60s. I was there to see my favourite pop group, so I wasn't an actual RO fan, but having seen him live... he was brilliant and sounded just like his records. Loved him ever since.
He was definitely a legend it's sad he doesn't have a Head Stone🕯
I have always told people that " IF GOD SINGS , THIS IS WHAT HE SOUNDS LIKE ""😪😪😪😪🎸🎸🎸🎼🎼🎼🍺🍺🍺🍺
I have mostly all of his songs ...
Great singer royorbison was one of the very best
This story of Roy was amazing. I attended OC at the same time he did. Much of his story was left out. He was a timid and loveable person. I can well remember listening to him and his teen kings. It was sad though to see many take advantage of his generosity. I only know him for a short time but for me it was amazing.
When I was in my early teens my best friend's mother had an old mono record player and the only record she had was a vinyl single of Pretty Woman I'd play it every time I visited and I liked it, I didn't love it until I got older and it was great.
he was an amazing person..
Saw roy two times in Wakefield theater club brilliant ❤
Roy may have been largely forgotten by American audiences but his peers always held him in high esteem. The Wilburys were no a bunch of dilettantes and Roy had their respect.
R.i.p. roy " peace& love"😊
I loved his music, i cried when he died.
He definitely had a unique voice and sang from his heart.
He and his music were uniquely unforgettable.
Love, love, love Roy!!! I never knew he wrote "Love Hurts" Tho I only heard it from "Nazareth"... Its my all time fave song today... I have a playlist on Spotify which "Love Hurts" is a must and I listen to everyday... There are so many of his songs I love and some I had no ideal he wrote... He was a true "Genius"... I never knew he had it so hard and with that voice its all the most shocking to hear that he had, bless his heart!!! I still love em!!! Rip Roy... 🌿🌹🌿
I think the Traveling Wilburys had a huge impact in his late years.
Thank you for sharing ..I still listen to Roys great songs! 2024!🎙️😎🎸
Great voice
Thank you so very much for this, so many questions i had about his life and career were answered.
My earliest happy memories of pop music include his songs. May he rest in peace together with so many other singers.
Beautiful voice
Seen him at The Friday Night Concert at Crown Center.
Gave an outstanding performance.
Roy was an amazing person.
What a beautiful voice...
beautiful 🎶 songs...🌹
LADY IN RED. TOPS
Fascinating to see his roots were traced to Northern Ireland. A country he liked to visit, even during the Troubles (when not many others artists were coming over).
Thanks, for the video, roy, rip
A truly great amazing man god bless him ❤
He was a great singer. Much better than the trash dished up nowadays.
I loved Roy Orbison. From Fall 1988 until Spring 1989 we had a long running duo gig five nights a week at the Holiday Inn in Laguna Hills, Ca and always sang a couple of Roy's songs each night. Roy's death made the news one of those days, so we sang at least six or five of his songs that night. Still my favorite singer/song writer. He is immortal.
It’s hard to imagine the pain of his losses. His wife and then both children. We need to learn more about people who survive tragedy and carry on so impressively.
A legend Brilliant singer ❤
Great video about Roy Orbison!
Dead cannot defend themselves.
I loved Roy's song. His singing was unique, each song moved your heart in a different way . I love his music and amazing voice.
I never forgot Roy Orbison. I loved his songs, and his voice was like no other. He was better than Elvis. His duet with KD Lang, “Crying,” brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. Rest in peace Roy. Thank you.
Legend 🎤🎸 .... Loved Roy's music RIP Your music lives on, along with The Traveling Wilburies RIP Tom Petty. Never Forgotten.....Roy & Tom

✝️RIP Roy Orbison ❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏💐💐💐🕯️🕯️🕯️🕊️🇵🇭
Thank you so much! I just miss him, his voice , his music so much even after so many years....
Love him!
Roy Orbison was a unique, giant of talent. His voice and songs will always be remembered. You left out ALOT of his popularity in England, his friendship with the Beatles, particularly George Harrison. He lived in England for a while. He was expected at George Harrison's house shortly after he died ( plans made prior). You presented a very negative side of his life and left out ALL the awards,popularity, and "shining stars" part of his life. 😐
One of the greatest voices ever
My late husbands favourite song was A Love so Beautiful, he used to listen to it every night before going to sleep, its so special 💖
Omitted are some of his most beautiful songs, songs that showcase his powerful voice and stunning range.
That said, I never knew of his association with "country", and Nashville. That was before my time. Just my opinion, but he was not country.
He was like no other.
I knew his niece Janis Orbison in the mid 60s. He played her birthday party and i didn't go because i didn't belive he'd be there. I missed out . Wonder if she's still around.
La mejor voz del mundo ❤❤
Great, great guy, fantastic voice and great songsmith, god bless you Roy.
