Roy Orbison - Shahdaroba

[fullomalarky]

I had never heard this before today while watching a rerun of Mad Men. LOVE IT!!!!

[dweml258]

"Evergreen" by Roy O. is certainly an overlooked classic. Been a favorite of mine 4 decades.

Check it out on Youtube.

I've never seen Madmen, I have been familar with this title (Shahdaroba) 4 a long time, I just checked it out. Well, I don't have 2 tell U that i discovered a classic. A B-side? Unbelievable! I read here that Cindy Walker wrote this. And I think that she wrote "You Don't Know Me"

Great talent obviously, not 2 well known. I love this.

@dweml258 Cindy Walker wrote a lot of big country and pop songs

@trob2014 Why? Does it matter what brought anyone here? Fantastic song. Cheers to Mad Men for exposing people to great music!

I was also introduced to this song after seeing the last episode of Mad Men in Season 3. Tremendous song and well worth listening to over and over again.

[royalignat]

[Orbisonlover]

[ChrissySnow7]

[MissAnimeFreak513]

Thank you Don Draper

[D0ST03VSKY]

Thumbs up if you came here simply because like me, you think Roy Orbison was one of the most amazingly gifted musicians of all time.

@132majeed

asshole hahahaha :)

[jamesgoya]

NO ONE, and I truly mean Absolutely No One ELSE other than our boy Roy can ever do this GREAT Cindy Walker song JUSTICE. DEFINE the word "Shahdaroba" and it means so much more than just a physical relationship ... it can be your job, your car, a political stance, a belief, so many things ...

[ElixerSue]

Yes, I got turned on to this tune from Mad Men.

[MrBinxiboy111]

great tune thanks for posting

[S1LAS1LA]

Fking Roy. Youre too good - how can we ever eclipse you? Gut wrenching utterly beautiful - a time machine a courtship a lost love a found friendship

[Beck9476]

If you were a kid in the early 60's this guy was a big part of your day. Always on the Top 40 on the radio - always in my heart.

[zeyna81091]

this song gets to me so much that it tears something inside of me

[infantrymama]

Orbison's voice truly makes the song. Love the lyrics.

[lun321]

Amazing.....

[ceyl285]

thanks Mad Men !

[chyman]

WHAT THE HELL DOES SHAHDAROBA MEAN???

[stephenct77568]

@chyman in the song it says, shadaroba-- means the future will be much better than the past. wiki. com says the word is of arabic origin and roughly translates into keep moving forward

[chyman]

@stephenct77568 thank you

[lwzl]

thanks mad men for this treasure 

[MattRosenDP]

I was listening to this on the way to work today, thinking "This song would be really great closing credits music." When I get home, I turn on the latest onDemand episode of Mad Men. The rest is history.

Hi, this is strange, of all the performances of Roy Orbison that I have, I first heard this one on Mad Men (and I am a baby boomer).

Great song and very touching dedication at the beginning,
