"Pretty Woman" is more famous. Also, "Cryin" is amazing. He did a version with kd lang, two voices that were made for each other. She did a solo version that I prefer. You need to react to her a lot more. "Constant Craving" is one of her absolute best. She has done some country songs in her own style. Check out "Trail of Broken Hearts" and "Pulling Back the Reins." She's also covered "Crazy" by Patsy Cline who was a big influence. Live or recorded, she's gold. As flawless a singer as I've ever heard.

As for the question you asked, I prefer *any* other song by Roy over "Pretty Woman". It's been so overplayed, IMO. Great reaction!

"It's Over" is a real emotional tear jerker.. not requested that often for some strange reason. He has so many many memorable songs. To stand there and hardly move or open his mouth to produce that sound particularly when he was young was magical. Never will be another like Roy Kelton Orbison. You must be pretty good to upsatge the Beatles for them to ask him to "go home Yankee"!!. Of course it was all in good faith, but for the crowd in England to keep asking Roy Orbison for encores and forget about the Beatles who had been on before is pretty special. He was by all accounts a really lovely humble guy. Sure miss the "Big O"

This is from the Black and White Night, live from 1987. My favorite songs Roy Orbison sang that evening are “The Comedians” written by Elvis Costello, who plays the guitar in the band behind him, and “Running Scared”. That must have been a great night! Both for the audience and for the artists themselves. The respect is written all over their faces.

I have owned this concert for years. Roy Orbison Black and White. His band and backup were some of the greatest musicianns in history. All tickled to be backing Roy. More huge musicians and celebrities in the club like audience.

When I was 12, a year before the Beatles came to America, I had a vinyl album of Roy's that I totally WORE OUT! Please react to much more! Try Leah next! Listen to the story he beautifully tells with Indian Love Song and sooo much more❤ Love y'all! 💋 😊

One of Roy's more iconic concerts, the backing musicians were from The TCB band, the guys that backed Elvis Presley, guitars were played by Elvis Costello, Bruce Springsteen, and James Burton, the backup singers were Jennifer Warnes, Bonnie Rait, JD Souther, Jackson Browne, and KD Lange. It's on video called Black and White Night

I truly love Roy Orbison's voice and music! I have since I was a young girl. He is an amazing singer!

That concert was on PBS. A night in Black and White with Roy Orbison. He was backed by some of the most talented people in the music industry. If you get a chance you should watch the entire film.

In 1966 I had the pleasure of watching Roy Orbison sing this song live. It was in Lethbridge, AB, Canada. That was a day I will never forget because I took a 'first date' Adele to the concert with me. It was such a beautiful night, Adelle was flat out beautiful and attractive on every level... and I was nervous as hell not to screw the date up. I had never even seen her this close before, I had only passed her in the hallway at high school and as I recall I had never really noticed her before. Eventually I started hearing that she had eyes for me. And since that's always a welcome piece of gossip... I phoned her and asked her out. And 4 days later here we are. At the Roy Orbison concert. We heard him actually sing all the way up into that "airy falsetto"... in real time. Holy shit, although it was in 'real time" it was also *unreal*... at the same time. Roy Orbison live was almost a "spiritual" event. Because at some point you start to realize that "I'll never get this opportunity again for the fest of my life to hear Roy Orbison sing 'live'. Sooo........ after the concert I just didn't know how to act with the lovely Adele... So I took her home. Besides, I was bumming my dad's car and by then it was already ancient. So I took the beauty Adele home and I've never seen her since. I'm sure she's still a freakin' knockout though, LOL Sorry about the not-so-happy ending, but you know how it goes. You're the one freakin' out about it, not me. 🤣 😂 💗

What a voice he had - carries so much power whilst still being gentle. Try She's a Mystery to me, it was written for him by Bono from U2 and was put on his last album. Gorgeous.
