I was all right for a while, I could smile for a while...

[Snowwark]

But I saw you last night, you held my hand so tight
As you stopped to say "Hello"
Aww you wished me well, you couldn’t tell

That I’d been cry-i-i-i-ng over you, cry-i-i-i-ng over you
Then you said "so long". left me standing all alone
Alone and crying, crying, crying cry-i-ing
It’s hard to understand but the touch of your hand
Can start me crying

I thought that I was over you but it’s tru-ue, so true
I love you even more than I did before but darling what can I do-o-o-o
For you don’t love me and I’ll always be

Cry-i-i-i-ng over you, cry-i-i-i-ng over you
Yes, now you’re gone and from this moment on
I’ll be crying, crying, crying, cry-i-i-ing
Yeah crying, crying, o-o-o-o-ver you

~Crying~

Anyone else a Roy Orbison fan? Have you ever seen the great Black & White Night concert? Your favourite Big O song?

 

[Sandy51]

I don't think I can narrow it down to one. In fact, I don't think Roy Orbison recorded a song I don't like. However, "Pretty Woman" is played way too often. I also love the "Crying" duet with k.d. lang.

Definitely one of the best voices rock n' roll has ever seen!

I'd rank Crying as my fave tune although he really soars on Only the Lonely too!

I am a huge fan. I had the opportunity to see him in concert here in Cleveland twice before his passing. I even managed front row seats for the theater in the round at which he performed with Carl Perkins. I can still remember the chills that ran up and down my spine when I heard him sing "Running Scared". I purchased the Black & White concert DVD the day that it was released and have watched it several times. God Bless you Roy Orbison for your legacy of song.

crying and only the lonely. I also love the kd lang duet. Definitely one of my faves.

I always loved 'You Got It'....

 

[Snowwark]

I was listening to the duet when I posted this.

I saw him in concert twice also, TC, he was great, I was mesmerized.

Running Scared, how it builds...wonderful!

I've seen the B&W Night concert several time on TV, but I've got to get the DVD!


~Darkness falls and she will take me by the hand
Take me to some twilight land
Where all but love is grey
Where I can't find my way
Without her as my guide~

Shes A Mystery To Me

I loved him! I saw him in a little concert in the next town to me. I couldn't believe he was coming but I bought tickets. When he took the stage, I was so afraid that he couldn't sing like his records - I almost ran out of the theatre.

Needless to say - he was awesome! It seemed so easy for him to belt out those songs!

I am planning to ask for that concert DVD for Christmas. k.d. lang singing Crying just blows me away!

A beautiful singer, wonderful songs for the ages. What a vocal range he had!!!!
