Roy Orbison - Crying

[dasGrob]

Learned it on guitar...but the voice, there's no way I can get that voice and do this song justice.

[kdr2424]

9 people are deaf

[RafaelDivoz]

50/50

[peter1954ish]

crying over you,what lovely lyrics and lovely sad song

[paddycat1000]

OMG Tears are dripping. I don't cry.

[rareone2369]

One of the greatest songs ever, sung by one of the greatest vocalist!

[jstinnett75]

What momma don't know...... won't hurt momma.

[BigBrother08007]

one of the only vocalists,who actually had ,and practiced ''4 part Harmony'',in most of his songs especically this one...enjoy!

[paulmccartney7ElvisP]

He was such a legend <3 

[nacre99]

221 bus, just after a holiday in cornwall, going to school, burst out crying, not quite sure whether it was going back to school, or the memories of logans rock, treen, or the mousehole, but the record says it all. xxx memories. xxx

[zombieslayer9775]

I hate roy orbison he's to real makes me cry every time.... ;)

[jarhead4God]

@zombieslayer9775:I just hate that I can't go back to this this time in music

[teddyt4n]

7 people never crying over his girlfriend / her boyfriend..

[yakobemil]

Austra covered this. So good.

[JunkyardDawwg]

I liked this girl at my school for a long time, eventually I grew the balls to ask her out. she said no.And now she's going it with this other guy. this sing keeps me cool with it.

[arai59]

@JunkyardDawwg If it is any easier for you.......know that for many of us we have felt that same feeling. It's what makes this song so real to us all. No matter what your age. My heart still aches for a girl some 40 years ago.

[Emerald1dx3]

I love Roy voice it is like honey on a warm butter biscuit. It is something you never stop loving and so it is his voice for me. I am 60+ and I still love to listen to Him. I just don't find that in today 's music

[PrincessRomona]

Love this song.

[rosieo22]

Saddest song in the world.

[jhunter1163]

God wishes He could sing like Roy Orbison.

[pinheadq41]

@jhunter1163 God lost the recipe after He made Roy.

[SteveD042661]

@jhunter1163 I'm not convinced that Roy WASN'T God! ;-)

[HorrorxGirlxo]

Simply amazing.

[TheGingerbelle]

I just love the bass in this and the way it rises to a crescendo - musicians like this are rare. We are privileged to be able to hear music of this calibre. Thank you so much for posting so we can all enjoy it.

[Sharparctic]

Truly amazing.

Any oldies like this should be on more modern day movies.

[abklineable]

no sense in crying over a woman. it only delays the inevitable . move along little doogie. move on.

[haiyuj]

When ROCK still had some ROLL!

[MrRoyOrbison]

Great!!!

[njaouhari76]

Was this song turn into the spanish song from Mulholland Drive?

[Prospero211]

@njaouhari76

Yes.

[Ratkar]

what a voice, I always think of my brother Carl when I see Roys hair and glasses.

[Quatorzel4]

@MrDara31 Not only that, but no less an incandescent talent like Elvis said that Roy had the world's best voice.

[TylerMontana]

Every old song I go to someone is complaining about the shitty music nowadays. There must be something to it.

[Quatorzel4]

@TylerMontana I wouldn't know. I don't listen to anything that was released after 1974. I saw Roy on 3 separate tours and he was awesome. Hard to believe this song came out half a century ago.

[nula07]

Great album, I have one, my fave tune..."The Crowd". 

[149suemac]

Love this :)

[rmpetty310]

Some of the best.

[gordontowson]

De mooiste songs aller tijden,gaat door merg en been,die mens kwam dan ook veel tegen ,respect

[zoomzoomgt]

@MrDara31 well put

[osheal]

777

[styrbjornful]

such a vocal range, from the low growl, to the highest tenor believable!!! what a talent

[warungism]

Ik graag naar golden oldest.

[susanb502]

Why do people listen to this and have the nerve to say they dislike it??? Exactly what do you like?

[BenaiahLLC]

One of the all-time bests

[ericnagy1]

All music is good.Only the great ones make exceptional music

[NolramNrets]

When he says, "but when I saw you last night" Thats when it hits me

[fixfireleo]

@MrDara31 yes, music today is nothing like it use to be, although there are some notable exceptions such as reba and martina mcbride. but i love roy, rickie nelso, connie francis, petula clark and all the other greats of olde.

[meezerlover1]

I've always loved Roy because every song, every emotion spoke to me. I do like Del Shannons version of "Cryin'" done after Roy's death. Check out the video here on YT.

[catfishhunter502]

Love this music!

[Ramblinrose1100]

you got me cryin for 5 yr's now but I know your the devil in a women hater jwr.

[jimmy45next]

@Ramblinrose1100 one of my all time favourites, sorry you have had a bad experience...this song probably sum's up all of my bad experiences, guess I'm too soft.

[conormcguire96]

doesnt this sound like dewey cox from walk hard?

[TheCatalunya]

this cant be better than hip hop ...

[LexiDoodle14]

i may be 15, but i love roy orbison! the shit we have today like justin beiber, taylor swift, kati perri, etc is all just computers. It's no real talent!!

[pinheadq41]

And we're all crying over you not being with us anymore, forever more.

pin

[karen56046]

i love the ending in this song...sooo sad a true artist, a true legend

[ykalantzis]

Roy Orbinson, a legend, an artist that sealed the 60's with his unique voice! My twin brother loved him and used to sing along over the radio,God I miss them both...

[0rvpogi]

perfect

unlike todays music " garbage "

[dnkdman]

Great artist. Had the privilege of seeing him perform. His works only get better as time goes by. Roy may have left us long ago, yet his music, his sound, his energy remains.

[rudeman15]

damn the hair on my neck just stood up...what the

[carolewyatt3546]

bring it on del boy !!!!

[taypar11]

Now we can say RIP Barbara Orbison as she just passed away this month. She kept Roy alive.

[TheRogerb71]

@taypar11 on the aniversary of Roys death, according to what I read....RIP Barbara

[DonNewbery]

Arguably the greatest song ever performed.

[Singsonggirl]

This song makes me miss being in love even more...

[leadster88]

@Singsonggirl

Me too! Lets get it on? ;)

[GloriaJBralick]

the heart break song I listened to this and cried over divorce

[waahoopapa]

The only artist ever to hit 5 octaves without going falsetto. Truly a legend.

[daedley]

@MrDara31 Go listen to a band named Girls and tell me all of the music we have today is shit. Go on give them a good listen, also I could name a lot more bands too if you'd like to be open minded but you probably won't.

[islandbwoy23]

Roy is really the greatest singer of his time and ours....What a range.

[RanchoRelaxoArg]

6/12/1988-6/12/2011 R.I.P. Roy, miss you.-

[iamthestig2100]

cwying....

[EternalRoland]

sabah sabah bu sarkiyi kendinden gecerek dinlemek gibisi yok.. hele ki kardesin sen uyurken pcden acip, senin yavas yavas bu sarkiyla uyanmana neden oluyorsa... kardesimi seviyorum!

[Rockit8]

The hair on the back of my neck still stands up listening to this song. Even after almost 50 years.

[Anucker]

@Rockit8 He was the best there was next to Elvis!!!

[sbeckle1]

@Rockit8 That's a long time to listen to one song :-) Why don't they make songs like this anymore?

[redredreds100]

@Rockit8 If you make a comment like that, then then Roy Orbison achieved his goals

[mikemayea]

plz reincarnate

[hejmitnavnersarah]

50/50

[ThurstonTsosie]

@hejmitnavnersarah GR8 movie & song. Came here after watching that movie. This song really suited that movie well.

[bob420421]

Rip patrice oneil

[nancejo]

Where most people have a vocal range of 1-2 octaves, Roy had double at 3-3.5. That is what gave him such command of songs like this.

[MrRomeroalex89]

this song gives me goosebums hes voice is amazing

[47yesican]

I didn't Have any Idea that I'd Still be Hearing This Beautiful

"Sad Song" Sung by the Late "Roy Orbison"

Nearly "FIFTY" Years Later. Unbelievable Voice.

That's Staying Power!!!!

[Tonithenightowl]

Someone get me the big knife. He's phenomenal.

[PhillipCreeper]

Fantastic!  Thanks for sharing this.

[SuperFirewire1]

@MrDara31 you just have to try and find all the great music today "how about john hiatt"? isnt he great? and many many others. yes i love roy and buddy and elvis and chuck berry and the beatles and another 1000 bands from the 50's - 60's - 70's but there is a great aboundence of great music today ton's of it. "is there a word "aboundence" or did i just make that up?

[HAWAIITAL]

WHAT A GREAT MAN!! I WAS THERE IN WHEELER AFB,HAWAII IN 77.. YOUR SONGS WERE TO THE HEART AS BLOOD ....I COULD FEEL THE PAIN AND LOVE IN YOUR WORDS!!!

[mikekalkaska]

This type of music is a lost art. Hopefully, it will come back with a new generation................... "Everything that's old is new again".

[brsfan66]

Its refreshing to hear this especially @ the 2:22 mark where you would probaly never hear the likes of anything even close in todays music.

[MsThomSmith]

llorando

[crabbybutt1]

what a voice!!!!

[westscoot]

Not a bad song, considering he was a flaming fag with aides....

[paddyboyobrien]

@westscoot He died of a heart attack and was married with children that he lost in a tragic fire!

[bth1969]

@westscoot you are a fag who's a moron too.

[nwarne1]

@westscoot u they only fag bud! wot a prick u r!

[softsquishybluefoam]

what a song

[Delila310]

I am so happy that we have all his beautiful music and his voice..AWSOME!!

[EstudiosWestside]

Gummo!

[MrCarepackage]

Roy Orbison sings for God now!

[jhunter1163]

God wishes He could sing like Roy Orbison.

[CosmicStargoat]

@jhunter1163 Total WIN. Oh, and fuck god for killing him.

[Marramarzzz]

I was alright for a while, that is when you were here with us - LIVE, with Roy O.

Thanks for leaving so many greats for me/us to listen to, see your face. A truly Great Man's Man. Now, I am crying, in my heart that you are not here.

RIP - If really deserve that after the horrific things that happened in your life.

You are missed.

[smw381st]

i dont understand why vh1 doesnt have roy on their 100 top artists of all time

[YouGotGunYouGotGun]

if god could sing, this would be his voice

[guido1365]

and?



[guido1365]

only guy that comes close is marty robbins

[CALEDALE100]

ONE OF THE ALL TIME GREATS.

[TheDaringPastry1313]

terry fator does justice to this song and he barley opens his mouth. Search it!! he is a singing ventriloquist :) If you love terry and how well he mimics artists thumbs this up.

[Grizzlox]

My wife just left me, and browsing through Roy's music, he's the only person that conveys what it really feels like.

[loungelizard5000]

@Grizzlox Hey....sorry to hear that. Been there. Hope you feel better. I've been listening and/singing along with this song for 11 years. March will be twelve. Cry like a baby at least half the time.....probably more like 80% of the time. I had a fiance' that left me......only girl I've ever loved or wanted to marry. Still not over it and never will be. Good luck to you, and remember you're not alone. March 23rd of 2000 she told me over the phone, "It's just not there for me anymore, sorry."

[AubertinAlain]

One of the best if not the best singer in North America(in his time), but this guy was so shy...

He could past over Elvis

[musicalrich1]

He was great, his voice unmistakable. With an uncanny method of phrasing, he ranks as one of America's best ever!

[Rosieisapunk1200]

The Caruso of Rock.

[LanaH1224]

@Rosieisapunk1200 Love the comparison...and so true!

[krislimmer]

such A cool dude

[kevinturvy]

Please people, Roy was not Blind or suffering from eye defects, he just had beady small eyes and looked better with dark shades on.

Just look at his eyes under his dark shades "something out of a scary film"

[LuisPBE]

@kevinturvy quite a funny comment mate. but seriously, Roy was an albino and had really poor eyesight,

[absofjelly]

@LuisPBE Roy

Orbison was not an albino.

[bth1969]

@absofjelly no the sunglasses were to look cool.

[Garyorbisonmayer]

G.C...for you.

[der2035]

Absolutely love this one!!

[LloydDutch]

Very alike to Blue Bayou.

[sonicdeath10]

At his best Roy always tears me up. Just his voice.

[yendor1232]

Quite possibly the greatest vocal performance of all time

[Intelpentium54321]

Don Mcclean covered some of his songs...thats how I got into him

[colinjwatts486]

@Intelpentium54321 totally agree i generally dislike artistes covering other peoples records but in don mcleans case he done it justice!

[Tommygun052899]

Trully was an awesome singer and grat person

[drmattdenver]

Took a special man to be able to sing with this much emotion. RIP Roy.

[banely100]

det er så rigtigt sagt

[zorough]

kill that rabbit

[jjt95]

@zorough Kill that rabbit?

[cantow57]

The day he died was the first time i heard his music and now i own all his cd's.

Hats off to the greatest vocalist of the world.

[bdv161]

@cantow57 maybe not the greatest but curtenly one of them ! greetings from Holland

[vanislefan]

When you look back over the last 50 years of pop music and all the great singers, at the very top has to be Roy Orbison. It is an honor to have had the privilege to have heard him.

[username30045]

Roy Orbison is the Great Grandfather of Emo.

[daniel8a35]

Gummo.

[anthonygiovanetti]

elvis yes elvis the king of rock and roll loved this guy's music that's really cool.

[Canibelamewithyou]

Damn right,there's 0 dislikes.

People know better!:D

[inya1lake]

Awesome

[bryanp47]

Wonderful! The Best....

[iluvmyphilippina]

The best male voice ever! Miss you Roy

[jwbrough1]

a true tear jerker

[dpettek]

You can hear such anguish in this man's voice.

[1969magpie]

There is a quality to his voice that is unmatched in rock and roll. You have to go to opera to fine anything like it. That, plus song selection. There is the poetry of his songs which sets him apart. And unlike opera, it doesn't take two hours to get to the tearful end. His was a special gift. So happy he discovered music and left us with it.

[prolwer1]

Hi everyone this is my audtion song for AGT, but hav'nt heard back from the show.

[eeemuuusiiic]

[feldmannpaul]

Right thats it, I am gonna slash my wrists. As a guitar playing you try to reach people, you try to make people sit up, look and listen. This guy did it.

[lovedamusicbaby14]

This song is sooooo amazingly beautiful but so sad at the same time lol you can really feel the pain in it and omg what an wonderfull voice he has one of the best singing voices ive ever ever heard theres just so much emotion there his voice was amazing, i lovvvve this song lol

[1108chuck]

Even Elvis said Roy was a better singer than he was.

[c5hw4]

You cryin boy? Why don't you go get a whaa burger with some french cries. Def Leppard sucks!

[dpettek]
