"Pretty Woman", "Only the Lonely" "Blue Bayou" "Running Scared" "Its Over" are all big big Roy Orbison hits from the Sixties. Roy and Elvis came up together and were fans of one another.

When Roy Orbison joined The Travelling Willburys (George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Tom Petty, and Bob Dylan) they all were in awe of him. Elvis was a baritone. Roy was a counter tenor. Elvis would have killed for his range.

What a crooner man is tone is immortal. He went on to have a very long productive career moved into production and also resurfaced when he joined the Traveling Wilburys which was Tom Petty George Harrison himself and the primary songwriter for the Electric Light Orchestra whose name eludes me right now. Excellent band as well

He was not blind but he had very poor vision. Wearing sunglasses was his trademark. He was Elvis's favorite singer. Girls were somber because they were in awe of his voice. I was a teenager in the 1960s, and Roy was really popular.

Sorry, Roy wasn’t a countertenor…he was a tenor. “Countertenors are, give or take, able to sing the same range of notes as female contralto and mezzo-soprano singers. Contralto falls within the alto range and is the lowest range of female voices, while mezzo-sopranos are somewhere between altos and sopranos, not being able to hit the lowest notes of the former range nor the highest notes of the latter.” There are plenty of good examples on KZfaq…and Roy Orbison wasn’t one.

This is actually not true that he had poor eyesight. It was just more speculation from him wearing the dark sunglasses all the time on stage. He had stated several times in interviews that he never had a stylist or anyone like that so he wore whatever he was the most comfortable for him. He wore the dark sunglasses because the made him more comfortable on stage, with the lights and even having to look into large audiences. So it was a lot of rumors and speculation that just wasn’t accurate. I have no idea about the hair thing, I have never heard that before.

Same with Stevie Wonder, they Were legally blind which means they couldn't see farther than , 2 feet in front of them. Elvis after he got glaucoma was the same after 1973.which makes it even more amazing how he performed on stage! The lights hurt Elvis eyes so bad that it caused him alot of pain . It was tears streaming from his condition, not sweat like people thought streaming down his face. There was always someone waiting in the wings to lead Elvis out to the car from the stage because he was blind from the lights!

In 1956, he recorded That’s All Right, and his career hit the big time.

Turns out he was hurt-more than folks should be: he lost his wife in a motorcycle (I believe) accident, and 2 of his children in a house fire. He could try to hide that pain behind sunglasses (and poor eye-sight), but he couldn't hide the pain from his voice.

According to Roy Orbinson's son, Roy forgot his glasses when he went to do a show in Europe. This was before easily replaceable glasses with plastic lenses or easy quick deliveries. He only had his prescription sunglasses to wear. So he wore them in place of his regular glasses. He wore them even during his performances. Later he decided to continue to wear dark glasses for subsequent performances even when he had his regular glasses. The dark glasses became his personal trademark during his performances.

No, he was not blind. But his eyes were very light sensitive. So he the dark sunglasses to help him see on stage. And if you have ever performed on stage, then you know how bright they can get.

Enjoyed the video, BP. Roy was the greatest and was Elvis' favorite. He had about a million great songs. I encourage you to check some of them out. He was not blind, the dark glasses were an accidental trademark.

They’re quiet because they’re respectful of his talent.

I really enjoy watching these reaction videos. It gives me a new appreciation for great music. Yes he did Pretty Woman, and many more.

Check out Roy in his later career with a group of LEGENDS called "Travelling Wilburys". He's in the music video for "Handle Me With Care". There's another video they made "End of the Line" but Roy passed before they shot the video, so they used an empty chair with just his guitar in shots where he was the vocalist to honor him. Both songs are great - and are masterpieces with some of the greatest rock and roll artists all time: George Harrison (Beatles - RIP), Tom Petty (RIP), Roy Orbison (RIP), Bob Dylan, and Jeff Lynne (of Electric Lights Orchestra aka ELO).

It may interest you to know that Roy and Johnny Cash were practically neighbors and would often get together and jam at each others homes...often joined by other talents like Bob Dylan and Chris Christopherson . One could only imagine the genius present in one place

Check out the version of Crying Roy recorded with K.D. Lang - it's dang near operatic.
