Roy had a tragic life. He died in his 50's from a coronary, lost his wife in a car accident and his sons in a fire. All of his contemporaries admired his unique voice and amazing range. In 2014 I was riding in a bus in Italy when this came on the radio and the whole bus was singing and dancing along!!! You can't sit still to this beat!

@djgrant8761 Год назад

Not a car accident His first wife Claudette died in a motorcycle accident.

@user-lk5vn3hp1f 7 месяцев назад

Roy himself didn´t consider his life more tragic than that of any other person. He often says in interview he had even more great years than those two tragic ones.

Roy Orbison was a great talent. Good rabbit hole to go down. Amazing range.

@awall1701 Год назад

I love Roy Orbison's voice.

@Mark-iv7np Год назад

His performance doing Crying alone or with K.D. Lange is phenomenal! He is one of the greatest singers ever. Elvis and Roy were good friends said Roy's voice was the best he ever heard.

Yep, when she came in on the lyric...."That the touch of your hand"..... ........a star was born.

Roy Orbison, a LEGEND in Rock'n Roll and one of the Best singers. I often feel Roy made Rock'n Roll one of the best genres of music. A lot of movies has his songs. Miss him dearly.

@donnadavid1972 Год назад

Roy is an absolute Legend. Elvis even thought he had the perfect voice. Great reaction, please react to Roy's song "Crying"

An incredible talent! Roy Orbison was one of a kind and like other super stars, he was a rare gem whose music was respected by his peers. Great reaction, ladies!

@donaldsmith283 Год назад

I remember sitting in my basement. I had a record player. It played LPS and I listen to Roy Orbison over and over again. Thank you hi from Maryland

@stephenhanft1226 Год назад

Roy Orbison is one of the legendary singers of early rock and roll. He has a great catalog of songs to explore. The song "Pretty Woman" is a great place to start. It is the song he is best known for and his signature song. An absolute classic. Once again, Momma Gap and I share the same taste. "Pretty Woman" is also my favorite Roy Orbison song.

@denisbryce8746 Год назад

Roy wrote this song with his friend Bill Dees in 1964. It was a huge world hit then & re-released in 1990 for the Movie of the same name. He received a posthumous Grammy in 1991 for his live performance of this song for his HBO Special Roy Orbison & friends, A Black & White Night. He was one of the Greats.

@ralphkern380 Год назад

Orbison is a legend. A movie "Roy Orbison and Friends: A Black and White Night" is a perfect representation of how revered he was. Back up musicians included (there were more i Forgot).... T-Bone Burnett/ Bruce Springsteen/ Elvis Costello/ Tom Waits Backup singers Jackson Browne - Bonnie Raitt - k.d. Lang - Jennifer Warnes And the celebrities in the audience were A list all. It was recorded and released about a year before he died. Many musicians/singers that could fill a concert hall on their own... playing backup ... and awed to be there.

@paulm114 Год назад

Elvis Presley was once asked who is the best singer in the world. His answer was Roy Orbison and you can't argue with that!

@jeffburnham6611 Год назад

What I found most interesting about Roy Orbison and his musical career is, at one time early on, the Beatles were his opening act on tour.

Barry Gibb said that Roy's voice was always one of his favorites.👍🎶🎶🎶🎶❤️

@ericbatemanrodgers Год назад

Roy Orbinson one of my favourite singers

@shellygill5029 Год назад

Perhaps one of the most iconic songs ever performed. The movie Pretty Woman, skyrocketed this song and gave it a second life far bigger than its original. Much the same way as the movie Ghost gave the Righteous Bros. Unclaimed Melody a huge second life.

@davidhenrywall8619 Год назад

Roy orbison brilliant singer one of the best voices ever

How come I missed this one month ago?!.. Noticed it only now - but wow, what a gorgeous song! I remember back in 1990 I had to learn that Orbison grrrrooooowl after I first heard this song (but maybe also after Traveling Wilburys' "Rattled", where he does the same thing), ha ha!.. Great memories of the past )) And foxy dance moves again, ladies! )))

@MrTech226 Год назад

Roy Orbison was part of Million Dollar Quartet: Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, and Jerry Lee Lewis

@wnsafford1854 Год назад

Roy wasn't part of the original "Million Dollar Quartet", which was actually just a 1 time event; Dec. 4, 1956, when Elvis, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis & Carl Perkins, bumped into each other, at Sun Records. They were chatting & impromptu, began singing around a piano. Thankfully, someone recorded part of that audio, which later, people began calling The Million Dollar Quartet Session. 21 years later, Dec. 1977, on the Johnny Cash Show, Johnny, Jerry Lee, Carl & Roy, recreated the "MDQ", to honor Elvis, by singing "This Train." I don't know if these 4 did later performances as the "MDQ", but in 1985, they did do an album as such, to honor Sun Records/Sam Phillips.

@sitnhere Месяц назад

Pretty Woman is for everybody, for sure. For men, for women......it transfers across gender lines and allows for personal meaning. But it was Roy Orbison's voice that gave the song its popularity.

@philburke1902 Год назад

5:07 That is truly a great observation..as your mom pointed out.

@user-pk2fg8im4u Год назад

My mom had brown eyes, and when I was a little boy I heard my dad sing "beautiful beautiful brown eyes" over and over to her. (There actually was a song back then that he was using, but in that song the eyes were blue). Well it wasn't until I was quite a bit older that I heard the original song, and realized dad had changed the words from blue to brown for my mom. I miss "em both, but plan on seeing them someday in the not so distant future. Really enjoy your channel, thank you.

@MrDiddyDee Год назад

If you're feeling a bit left out, a great fun song for you to react to is Van Morrison's 'Brown eyed girl'.

you ladies need to listen to this song done live at the black and white concert. it has a bunch of legends backing up roy. springsteen ,james burton, kd land,jackson browne ,just to name a few. you won't regret it. you ladies are my new favorite reaction channel

@williammuntzer7374 Год назад

Great choice and great reaction. Roy Orbison was incredibly talented. You may also enjoy Van Halen's take on this classic.

The Van Halen version has to be played with "Intruder" as the introduction before "Pretty Woman."

Roy had incredible range. From bass to falsetto seamlessly. Not to mention that little growl was pretty cool 😎.

@danastearns7939 Год назад

He has won numerous Grammy Awards for his songwriting/singing. He is listed #37 of the Greatest Artists of All-time and #13 on the list of the 100 greatest singers of all time. Started in 60's in rockabilly & country-western genre. Between '60 and '66 he had 22 singles in the Top 40, including: only the lonely, dreams and Pretty Woman. Some rough times in the 70's but rebounded in popularity in the 80's with several covers of some of his songs. In '88 he co-founded The Travelin' Wilburys - and died in Dec '88. A month later his single "You Got It" was released and went into the Top 10. He wore dark suits and dark sunglasses to hide his shyness and stage fright. He is a true music icon and legend with an operatic voice that is clear and smooth with very good range and tone control.

Roy’s duos with KD Lang are mesmerizing and legendary. Well worth looking up.

@craigpaske9351 Год назад

Only Roy Orbison can sing "mercy" and growl in a song and sound so cool.

@jayweb51 Год назад

Possibly my favourite song by Roy Orbison is "Crying". He also did a duet of this song with K D Lang.

@js3599 Год назад

K D Lang also did a solo version that not only stands up to Roy, but, to some peoples ears, even surpasses Roy's version. Check out her tribute to Roy from MTV Unplugged... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JNbnFVBVnz0.html

@Titus-as-the-Roman Год назад

I tried my dam*est to meet Mr. Orbison, I did live somewhat near at one point but too young and the folks moved away. I received a new position in and around Nashville, this meant an apt. back home to where my soul was, but to my great disappointment both Roy and Johnny Cash passed away before I could get back. My entire life it seems the Universe has done such things to me, often look on purpose (It would be an interesting read), but at the same time has given me pretty much all I need to be Happy. I still would have liked to meet Mr. Orbison. *- Your boy Barry Gibb purchased Johnny Cash's home.

@robinmills8675 Год назад

You will love Van Morrison's "Brown Eyed Girl".

@Balero01 Год назад

This song is really a time capsule of what was considered acceptable in the 60's. Today any guy calling out 'mercy" and growling at a woman in the street would likely be charged with harassment.

@jerickson725 Год назад

I loved hearing mom's "fantasy"; that was the best 🤩. I always thought about it the same way you described when it was popular again because of the movie and I was a mere 20 something gal. And when I hear it now at 58, it makes me feel the same way; confident I could still live that fantasy 😂! ! !

@I.am.Iain-81 Год назад

Such an amazing artist, there is a select few songs that helped break the ice with a lady back in the day & this was one of them. 😁 'I drove all night' is my favourite Roy Orbison song. Please react to 'Lady In Red' by Chris de Burgh.

@crsounddoctor4937 Год назад

Very nice reaction by 2 classy ladies who fit the description (and I said that very respectfully)!!!

@sandralorenz1796 Год назад

Check out his "Crying". A great talent lost way too soon.

@bigron725 Год назад

Like y'all's channel . Just joined . Really cute reactions . Roy Orbison was one of the greats . You should react to him with the Traveling Wilburys . It's him with a group of the greatest singer songwriters of all time . Have a great day !

@philipdickey6460 Год назад

All of his songs were great, one of my favorite songs was written by Roy Orbison…Blue Bayou

@nationaltrails9585 Год назад

"A pretty woman never needs any money" was what the co-writer told Roy when he asked his wife Claudette if she needed any shopping money. Yes, many people associate Oh, Pretty Woman with the movie and what woman would not want to be also associated with it (GGR should know). 1964, The Beatles and The British Invasion, and yet this song was a strong #1 for 3 weeks around September (it was his only #1 hit, on the radio all the time). Roy did have earlier hits and was known for what people describe as an operatic voice. As Iconic As It Comes. :)

@nationaltrails9585 Год назад

Correction: Roy had another #1 hit with Running Scared, in 1961. :)

@geoffmower8729 Год назад

Hi gals rumour has it that Roy wrote pretty woman in 20 minutes while on a plane trip. Amazing song one of rock and rolls greatest.👍🏻👍🏻

@pmdennis48 Год назад

Listening to Crying with Roy Orbison and k.d. Lang is a must. Orbison claimed to have written this as the result of an encounter he had with an old flame with whom he was still in love. He refused to say how much she meant to him, and when he ran into her again it was too late.

@clfoster3734 Год назад

Hillbilly Opera. Orbison was the master. He wrote and recorded blue bayou in 1961. One of his best. lf you have time, might want to check out Black and white night filmed at the Cocoanut Grove in 1988 with all his friends. To long to do a reaction to. lt was his last work before he passed bit it is epic. RIP Brother Roy. thanks for the memories.

@robertbagley9199 Год назад

Van Halen do a cracking version of this (Worth a listen ladies)

@vallee3140 Год назад

one of my favourite artists ,and yet he had such a tragic life

@ursulaweber5022 Год назад

Another great one by Roy is Only The Lonely. He has some many and great to see you reactions to them.

@jimmythetout109 Год назад

So many of the reactors use tracks from an Orbison concert in the 90 s , I believe ........the true test of Orbison , and his range , is / are the orignal cuts from the 50 s , 60 s .......as you just did ....thanx

@bash060656 Год назад

This was a classic example of back in the day when a drummer's job was to keep tempo. Not like today when the musicians have a digital electronic metronome stuck in their ear.

@jeffrogers2180 Год назад

"In Dreams" is my favorite of his, but there are lots of good songs of his to choose from.

@gpxo11 Год назад

I consider this song the perfect single-when this aired on the radio-the drums lock you in-the guitar riff grabs you and Roy's grorrrowwwlll was a bit subversive and suggestive at the time-all ingredients combined add up to a great rock and roll classic. Another song to suggest from Roy would be the ballad Blue Angel.

@johnathanstruble1064 Год назад

Roy, ..a Traveling Wilbury,...along with Harrison, Petty, Dylan, and Lynne...what a great retirement....must react to THE TRAVELING WILBURYS.

@djgrant8761 Год назад

Talking about brown eyes if you haven’t heard of them there are two songs “Beautiful Brown Eyes” by Rosemary Clooney and “Brown Eyed Girl” by Van Morrison.

@jameswilder5053 Год назад

Van halen did a cover of this song in the 1980s good song

@ianwebb4524 Год назад

Roy did a collaboration with Barry Gibb and the Gatlin Brothers with the song Indian Summer, deserves a a few more reactions. Also check out Wings of Pegasus Vocal analysis indicates Roy Orbison was a MACHINE!

@eggy1962 Год назад

terrific artist many great hits, if your looking for one in a similar tempo...Penny Arcade...fits nicely...or a nice ballad like ...IN Dreams....don't forget YOU GOT IT which went to number 1 after he passed

@donaldsmith283 Год назад

If you get a chance to listen to another Roy orbison's songs. Crying is a great one and Only the Lonely. You ladies are awesome thank you

@pmdennis48 Год назад

In Dreams is another son of Roy Orbison that should be listened two. Roy Orbison claimed in interviews that the lyrics for this song came to him in a dream; he wrote the music once he woke up. Typical of many Orbison songs, it's a heartbreaker: asleep at night is the only time he can be with the one he loves, as when he wakes up, she's gone.

@christinelegate8137 Год назад

One of my favourites. Loved the movie too. Roy is a legend. Check out The Travelling Wilburys super group that he was a part of with Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Tom Petty…the song/video -Handle With Care.

@MrMoon1953 Год назад

He also wrote "Blue Bayou" that you reacted to a couple of weeks ago, preformed by Linda Ronstadt.

@daddyguerrero Год назад

You want a classic brown eyed song? Then hit Van Morrison’s Brown Eyed Girl🥰

@metalrules1135 Год назад

So you've done Van Halen and you've done Roy Orbison. So now you have to do Van Halen's cover of this song. It's pretty cool.

@wayne_twentyfive Год назад

Such a fun reaction ! .. And there's no doubt that either of you could be the inspiration for a song called "Pretty Woman" .. I'm sure many eyes have been on you when you've walked into restaurants ! 😉 .. Roy's catalogue is HUGE .. You will never run out of bangers from The Big O .. What a legend !

@williamfaust5769 Год назад

Have you ever heard Van Morrison's song, Brown Eyed Girl? You might want to check it out and then you will have a song about a girl with brown eyes lol.

@rainerzufall42 Год назад

(8860) This is probably the place and time for a call for sth. from the "Traveling Wilburys". They may have been short lived (1988 - 1990) due to Roy's death, but they were great! Don't be confused, that there are two albums called "Traveling Wilburys (Vol. 1 & 3)". There are several theories about whether "Vol. 2" did ever exist or what was it like. Strong recommendations include "Handle with Care" and "End of the Line"...

@generationgapreacts Год назад

Thank you Rainer! I can’t wait to start with those

@talltulip Год назад

Most people will suggest that you listen to "Crying" next, and that's a good choice. But "Running Scared" must also be on your list!

@broadband01 Год назад

my mothers fav was roy....she tells me he was bigger in his prime than elvis here in the uk :O)

@Paldasan Год назад

The phrase "eyes on me" immediately took me back to my teenage years and the song "Eyes On Me" by Faye Wong, a HK singer, who is probably recognised by exactly zero other watchers here, unless they also played Final Fantasy VIII. I'm not suggesting it as a reaction, the viewer count would be quite low. But it was an opportunity to go and listen to it again. thank you.

@philippevalois381 Год назад

@kimking6036 Год назад

My brother's girlfriend broke up with him. She lived one house away. As she was walking away my brother started singing this song. When she turned around he dropped to his knees. She took him back. I think the break up lasted less than a minute 😂

Do yourself's a favour and check out Roy's vocal on the " Travelling Wilbury " song " your not alone any more " mmmmmmmmm brilliant

@djgrant8761 Год назад

This song is about his first wife Claudette.

@LuckyDawgProductionsModerator Год назад

Love Roy Orbison. His voice is one of a kind. Great song! Recommend reacting to a song by The Traveling Wilbury's. They are a Super Group, which included Roy Orbison, George Harrison, Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne and Bob Dylan. Handle with Care is great and has Roy Orbison there with them. End of The Line is also great. Roy had recorded his parts, but passed away before they made the video. It is interesting to see how they included him in the video.
