I named several of my friends at work Willburys including me, I'm Malcolm, there's Brennan, Lance, Dusty, Fantasia, Cynthia, Lynette, Larado, Murdock, Akon, Dawson, and Jessie.😂😂😂😂😂😂
Can we pause a moment to let this sink in? Tom Petty (already a world-wide star on his own), George Harrison (a freaking Beatle for God's sake, as well as successful on his own), Bob Dylan (THE Bob Dylan, troubadour for an entire generation), Roy Orbison (one of the most distinctive and original voices of foundational rock in the 1950s), Jeff Lynne (the founder and driving force behind ELO, the successor to the Beatles) - five epic-level musicians in a room recording tunes. We will NEVER see the like again.
My mom passed away today, and she requested I play this song at her funeral. She was the best mom anyone could ask for. I will never forget you, and I hope to cross paths with you again someday. Farewell mom.
I was not a big Dylan fan. My brother took me to a small outdoor concert aa a birthday gift. My younger sister angry that he did not take her, because she was a big fan. Now when I listen to Bob, think of my brother ~ he came to the end of his line, much too young.
I miss tom petty so much. Had the privilege of seeing himlive in pdx . Some assholes shot off some fireworks in the closed indoor concert. Tp stopped the music, called them out as assholes. Basically gtfo. Good man, cared about safety as well as a good time. RIP.
I've seen this video dozens and dozens of times, and every time it gets to that shot, I do this "awwwww" as if I've never seen it before. But yeah, gets me in the feels. Right in the feels
I'm 74 ..found this by accident..and downloaded. It just grew on me. later I was in hospital for dialysis and pneumonia. bad shape, I played this in my hospital room and a visiting preacher came in and said. sorry to trouble you but I heard you play the traveling willburys and just knew whoever it was had to be a kewl. person ..we laughed prayed and I was out of hospital in 3 days.....off dialysis in 2 weeks. Thanx wilburys for being my inspiration during this time. It's alright!
@@patrickveninga1050 I agree. It was part tribute, part practicality. His voice was on the audio tracks, but his heart attacked him before they could make the video. That touching part gave us an image to go with the voice, and it was in honour of a fallen gentleman.
That's the problem with the West. We are not taught from an early age that death is our final reality. We ignore this fact and become self-absorbed with our own bullshit, devoid of empathy. Everything is about "me" mentality is so pervasive. Perhaps if we each spent more time contemplating death, we might find ourselves living more meaningful lives.
My Grandmother passed away today and this song gives me so much nostalgia of spending time with her. It always seemed to be playing when I visit on that radio channel that only old people sit around and listen to. Playing this on repeat on my 3 hour drive to Sydney airport to start my long journey back home to Ireland. RIP Miss Egan 😢
This is how this song makes me feel: even legends can sit around campfire and sing happy songs. no egos, no drama… just bunch of friends enjoying each other.
I'm also 73 and loving the music they produced but best ovall they were enjoying them selves especially dare I say it George ,after the way the beatles fell apart. 😊😊😊 y@@stevenriddle8685
YES. Actually just heard about this amazing group of musicians. I knew about them, of course but not the group The Traveling Wilburys (till I fell in love with Handle Me With Care.) Anyone here like The Wilbury Twist? It is so cool. I love to laugh. 😂 If anyone knows of it, let's chat ok
That empty rocking chair with the guitar in it, that picture of Roy Orbison, still chokes me up, and brings the tears..even after seeing this video a million times. RIP Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, and George Harrison. Gone but NEVER FORGOTTEN. 💔💔💔
Paying tribute to the Legend. Notice how it turns dark like it's going through a tunnel when Orbisons singing. Very dark time for rock n roll when he passed away.
My father would often turn to me and sternly say: "son, did you know, that there are people dying to-day who have never died before..?? He was half-kidding, but of course was right. My dad passed in 1988, at the young age of 58.
@@timmy3287 I'll say this as politely as I can, but a comment section is neither the time nor the place for an imposition of faith. Please be careful of that before others come and berate you for it, I beg of you.
Yeah, knowing that only Jeff Lynne and Bob Dylan remain is a little sad. My Father played all of these guys on the radio or the stereo when I was growing up. And I love them like nothing else.
Jeff Lynne is a fantastic musician, songwriter and producer. Jeff Lynne's ELO will be on Tour this Summer and Fall of 2024 for 32 concerts in North American cities. It's on my bucket list... I already bought my tickets for New York and Toronto.
"Maybe somewhere down the road aways, you'll think of me and wonder where I am these days"--- just a great line for anyone thinking about the one that got away. Miss you, girl!
@@scooper7313And if you believe the stories none of them wanted to sing next after Roy Orbison in the earlier songs because he had such a voice and didn't want to seem lacking :-)
Almost 82. I never thought I would be alive when my favorite singers where no longer with us. When I listen to this song they are still with us. Music is my favorite thing. I would not want to live with out it.
elizabeth caywood you’re 3 days closer to 82 and on RUclips commenting on your love of music. Awesome!!! So you were a teenager when Elvis made it big and rock n roll made big bands go bye bye. Great musical changes in the history of your lifetime. My dad is 82. Made me download all his Ray Coniff music onto his iPod. Hahaha!!!
@@jdhrap 82 March 18th. Yes I have seen a lot of changes in music and many other things. When I was very young I listened to all music. A radio was all we had. We would listen to the big bands too Music is still my favorite of all the things. Never in my wildest immigration did I think I would be on a cell phone listening to music with other people. My grandfather fought in WW1and I loved him with all my heart and I wish I could share how much the world has changed. He predicted we would be in wars forever when we got into W W1. I could tell him he was right & music is still my favorite thing. Music keeps me sane in a crazy world. I have 2 little Javanese doggies that sleep on my bed and listen to my music. Billy & Molly born on the same day one year apart. They love music too. Life goes in a flash so trying to slow it down. Peace and love to you and your father.
Your father has seen the changes in the world as me . Sounds like he still loves the big bands. End of the Line my favorite and I love songs like Amazing Grace. And a new song, Meant To Be. Listen to it.
elizabeth caywood Meant to Be with those country boys and the little hot blond girl? Great song. Music is awesome. I played an instrument for 15 years all thru school. It made me love and appreciate music so much. Love jazz and blues for the musicianship. But love that same musicianship in regular radio music as well. I really enjoy a well played song. But love stuff that is musically fulfilling if you know what I mean.
Could not agree more- this was the true SUPER GROUP ❤❤Can we please turn the clock back for a while? I am old and grey as they sing it but it is alright?😊😊😊😊😊😊
@@normalovell-w8vIt Would've been interesting IF This Group, gotten together just shortly After the "Black and White Night", that was made for Roy. They might have made 2--3 more records, for Their fans to enjoy.
My dad died on the 4th July 2020, and this was what he had chosen to be his checking out song, only 10 people were allowed to go to the funeral. Today (23/09/2020), would have been his 66th birthday. RIP dad - I hope I'm making you proud
So sorry for your loss but hearing his choice of music, he sounded like quite a guy! Your dad and I are on the same page for his checking out song. Sums up how I want to be remembered. (am age 70 and thinking ahead)
Stephen Geraghy love to you and yours. Love your dad you have good taste my man. Your not gone and never forgotten u just hovering on the music plane x
The Drummer here is a very very humble person, IMO. He hasn't been declared a true member of the Traveling Wilburys. However, he is a TRUE musician. If I recall, he said that he didn't belong among these greats. Well, sir, you DO belong. You are a humble man and a fantastic musician - take a bow sir.
Love how they pay respect to Roy Orbison with his guitar on the rocking chair while we hear his glorious voice. So sad 3 Wilburys are gone now. I'm certain we'll hear them live again in the afterlife. RIP Roy, George and Tom.
Now you stand on the street corner in Nashville or Memphis with your pants down by your ankles, screaming 😱 out at the top of your lungs something that doesn't make any sense, and some dude with gold chains around his neck pulls up in a Escalade and hands you a million dollar record contract. What's wrong with this picture 📷 🤔? All the real story tellers are gone. 😪😓😫
1:40 Roy comes in and NAILS IT! They all do, but seeing that rocking chair at that moment representing him, despite him just having passed away at that time, I'm glad the 4 other legends, who gave so much to my life, got to record with a music hero of theirs
I was so sad when as soon as I started listening to his music that, about after month, found out that he had already passed away. I really would've loved to have seen The Big O live back in the day
I waited all my life to marry George I'm 75 now Met him when I was 15 The long and winding road Lived near Liverpool now I. Cape Town and still waiting ❤❤
This song reminds me of a great old friend we were very close for some time and then drifted away I saw her some years later and all that magic came right back she passed away a couple of years ago God Bless
The rocking chair with guitar and the picture really makes one tear up just a bit. My late grandfather always enjoyed Roy. He really was an underrated talent.
@@bajacore absolutely. To think he wrote a lot of songs that we've all heard, or heard covers of, and yet somehow I never really see his name. I didn't even know who he was before I discovered the Traveling Wilburys. I've read that these guys all mutually respected eachother, but Roy was the one to make everyone feel sorta star struck.
Same with so many passing recently, brings a lump to my throat when Tom Petty sings. At 80 you're outliving many who've recently left, you must be doing something right ❤️
Eight years behind you. However, I understand totally. My grandchildren mean everything to me. I've introduced the two eldest to the Travelling Wilburys. I think they get what their songs mean to me.
It's interesting to me, when the Beatles broke up, the one Beatle most other influential musicians seemed attracted to, and to collaborate with, was....George Harrison.
You are 100% correct my friend, music today all sounds the same... Basically garbage. Looked at some of the lyrics that they write....Don't know how they sell their albums honestly. Good music ended in the mid eighties with a few exceptions
John I agree I know times of changed in the industry and new generations but wouldn't it be great if the record company's today could just learn from past music production etc.. if they could produce even abit of the old school magic, it would be great for alot of us that miss it 🙂
@@gerardcornelis They offered him a place as an official Wilbury but he graciously declined; happy to play the part he did. But yeah, Jim was and is every bit a Wilbury :-)
Played this while my Papa's coffin lowered the other week. Was having a bad day yesterday and this popped onto the radio, thanks Papa for reminding me that it will all be alright
My papa was my best friend he died 7 years ago. I know now he is sitting at the right hand of god reading a book watching an old western western movie waiting for the world to join him. God bless you and I’ll be praying.
Probably the best of the best musicians together playing an awesome song. Just love them all. Who is with me on this awesome group of musicians? This song is timeless.🎶
Someday, all the voices will fall silent, including mine. Just remember that there is an end of the line. For all of us. Raise a glass while you can. Shed a tear while you can. And sing.
@Joe Bloggs Jeff Lynne leader of E.L.O. His hairs a 'perm' short for Permanent.Tom Petty Used him as a producer and cowriter at times . I think he was in on Harrison's 'Cloud 9' album. Great Group!
Bruce, this is possibly the most beautiful thing I've read in months. I can feel the warmth of your soul from my house in Michigan. You're the kind of person my grandma called "good juju." Thank you.
RIP Roy Orbison (April 23, 1936 - December 6, 1988), aged 52 RIP George Harrison (February 25, 1943 - November 29, 2001), aged 58 RIP Tom Petty (October 20, 1950 - October 2, 2017), aged 66 You will be remembered as legends.
October 2024! I love the respect give to Roy in this video.. I have respect for all of these great musicians.. Great song, Lyric's and artists.. Sad we are now Loosing them and Others..
being 70 and experiencing The Beatles (George Harrison) Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison and adding legends Tom Petty, Jeff Lynn, You finally sit back, put headphones on and really think how great this group was.
I just turned 70 this past August and now I'm feeling very old the world has lost the best in music I can only hope that if there is a heaven maybe I'll get to listen to their music again some day
Great music! I love Mr. Harrison, even though he didn't receive Knighthood from The Crown, he'll always be Sir George Harrison to me! These guys were the best! Rick Dwayne Rumpff, Celina, Ohio USA.
The greatest collaboration that nobody heard of. Loved the fact they all used pseudonyms as their Wilbury characters, no ego, just a group of guys that loved making music. I have both their albums, and the "unknown" Wilbury albums that Harrison/Petty/Lynne put out around the same time with everyone else contributing to the backing vocals/instruments. Just plain old "feel good" kind of music that exemplifies what musicians can create when left to their own devices. damn I miss these guys, what legends!
Being 75 .. Watched many concerts during my young teenage years through my middle aged years. Sadly our younger generation will never experience, The Sixties and Seventies as we …. They were the best years of any generation. Love all performances by the Traveling Wilburys !!!!
I'm torn between the love and happiness of this song and feeling a little bit sad. Anybody feel the same way?? Update: Well, it's been a little over a year and I love all the thumbs up and comments. Their music lives on forever in our hearts..
Oh yeah. Same for me. Sometimes I choke up a bit during Roy's solo. He passed away about the same time my mom did, right when he was having that comeback. And now, with Tom having passed away so tragically... But they all left behind some great music.
Who else misses Tom Petty, Roy Orbison and George Harrison? They were gods of music! I love that they had the empty chair for Roy Orbison in this video!
From the very first chord to the last, this is one of the few songs I consider to be absolutely perfect. Thirty-five years later, it is still capable of bringing tears to my eyes.
@@teresabenson3385 An elderly gentleman I encountered in my youth told me, you know when your time is nearly up when the musicians, actors and family you once knew are all gone, a sad fact that only truely resonated in my later years.
I know exactly what you mean. The very first time I saw this video, I started crying like a baby. I am NOT ashamed to admit that. These guys are one in a million. You don't see talent like this anymore. At least in my opinion. 💔💔💔
And motion to your feet! You just can't listen to this music without tapping your feet or leaping up and out onto the dance floor, which happens to be my hallway and livingroom right now!
William, you are blessed with musical soul. Not everyone is blessed with it. These awesome guys had it and so much more. I see you at the end of the Line. Enjoy the journey.
Don’t ever forget Jim Keltner. An amazing drummer. The number of artists he has drummed for is amazing. His work with George goes right back to the amazing “Concert for Bangla Desh, the All Things Must Pass album, the Concert for George. His work is brilliant. Just a pity he isn’t mentioned /acknowledged along with all the other Willburys. Well done Jim
George fixed his hair like Dylan's. George loved Dylan and said they were soul mates. Dylan returned that love and George was one of the few true friends Dylan had in this lifetime. George looks like a teddy boy again and is so happy to be playing with all his mates -- no jealousies no egos -- all legends equal to each other and modestly supporting each other -- they make it look so easy.
TheBluewaterBlonde - When you are as good as these guys are and were, it probably IS easy. Just a bunch buddies getting together for a couple of days doing what they love...oh yeah, and they all just happen to be superstars! We have been blessed to hear them at their best!!!
i was told Roy layed down his line then walked out to get lunch. the others didnt know Roy had done his work because his mouth didnt move and thought he was just doing warming up exercises.
both understood the crushing weight of fame and expectations. in some way that the was the basis for understanding each other and they went from there.
I've never been much of a Orbinson fan, but this is arguably the greatest "super" group of all time. "I'm just happy to be alive." -- Tom Petty That lyric makes me shed a teat every time I hear it
A very existential song. Three Wilburys died fairly young. As I go deeper into my 60s I think more and more about "the end of the line". I must say, that as the years have gone by, the fun times seem to have diminished. But, I guess it's alright even if the sun don't shine. Thank you, Wilburys.
Well it's all right, even it's the end of the line. Think of all you can do till then! Make a list of all you can do to make the people around you happy. Go ut good, man!!
73 and just got back from taking my Vette around Talladega Super Speedway hitting 145 on turn 1. Only got to 4th gear out of 6. Do it every year a couple of times. The End of the Line is when you make it.

They were all in their 40s (except Orbison who was 53, and Petty who was only 38), already legends who could have just coasted and put out a covers album of their hits, but rather produced this absolute masterpiece.
It is awe inspiring to see them all in one room. I like the moments when they're clearly just having fun hanging out and making music. I don't think George Harrison was an easygoing person, but you can see him enjoying the moment here.
Has to be the greatest supergroup of all time
They have the credits and accolades that make them the best "SUPER GROUPS" of all time.
You're right, this is definitely out of the question. Kind regards, Roland
Only thing close is the Highwaymen with willie, johnny, kris, and waylon
Another Supergroup @@mark32092

So sorry you lost your Mom. Bet she was a cool Mom if she requested this song. One thing for sure, she had excellent musical taste.
she will be with boys now rip

Doesn't get any better!

Haha!
Roy’s empty chair rocking with his guitar gets me every time , every goddam time. I miss this.
gosh^* For God, do not use God’s name in vain 😇
@@timmy3287 I'll say this as politely as I can, but a comment section is neither the time nor the place for an imposition of faith. Please be careful of that before others come and berate you for it, I beg of you.
Yeah, knowing that only Jeff Lynne and Bob Dylan remain is a little sad. My Father played all of these guys on the radio or the stereo when I was growing up. And I love them like nothing else.
@@mitchellouellet Too late! I’m here to berate this stranger!!! How dare he?!?
I was just telling my wife about that part of the video....damn near got me....RIP Roy.
Jeff Lynne is a fantastic musician, songwriter and producer. Jeff Lynne's ELO will be on Tour this Summer and Fall of 2024 for 32 concerts in North American cities. It's on my bucket list... I already bought my tickets for New York and Toronto.
I’m going to Atlanta! Can’t wait!
@@closetodeathseth Enjoy it my friend Atlanta will be sold out very soon. Last ever Tour for Jeff Lynne my music hero with the other JL John Lennon.
@@closetodeathsethI will see Detroit show
@@closetodeathseth Me too, got my tix for ELO in Atlanta on Oct 12. Can't wait to see living legend Jeff Lynne.
Didn't Jeff Lyne sadly just pass away.
I can’t be the only one who thinks this is one of the greatest songs ever made.
Nope
the song has special vibes, you got a good taste bro
Super!!!!!👌
I love it!
No your not on your own there bruv
November 2024 here! Who's with me?
I'm here
I'm hear 👍👍👍👍
Me too!
😎👉
There will never be another group like this, full of legends. RIP George, Tom, and Roy. Gone but never forgotten.
I love you for saying this. I teared up when I saw the tribute the did for Roy. He's my favorite
>>>DITTO
Jan..this is Jeff Dempsey..left a comment but saw yours 😀
yep
Their are more empty chairs, unfortunately.
For me, the most profound line in this song is when Jeff says "the best you can do is forgive."
For me its 'everything will work out fine' - Orbison.
"Every day is judgment day"
“Purple haze”
"Maybe somewhere down the road aways, you'll think of me and wonder where I am these days"--- just a great line for anyone thinking about the one that got away. Miss you, girl!
"Lay"
1988: masterpiece
2024: masterpiece
RIP GH, TP, RO
So much Awesome in this group..
Five of the most famed musicians of their generation. A true "super group."
All distinguished vocals. ❤
@@scooper7313And if you believe the stories none of them wanted to sing next after Roy Orbison in the earlier songs because he had such a voice and didn't want to seem lacking :-)
Que excelente combinación de voces! genios!!!!!
👌👌❤❤❤❤
True!!!
Almost 82. I never thought I would be alive when my favorite singers where no longer with us. When I listen to this song they are still with us. Music is my favorite thing. I would not want to live with out it.
elizabeth caywood you’re 3 days closer to 82 and on RUclips commenting on your love of music. Awesome!!! So you were a teenager when Elvis made it big and rock n roll made big bands go bye bye. Great musical changes in the history of your lifetime. My dad is 82. Made me download all his Ray Coniff music onto his iPod. Hahaha!!!
elizabeth caywood he’s 82 in February to be corrected.
@@jdhrap 82 March 18th. Yes I have seen a lot of changes in music and many other things. When I was very young I listened to all music. A radio was all we had. We would listen to the big bands too Music is still my favorite of all the things. Never in my wildest immigration did I think I would be on a cell phone listening to music with other people. My grandfather fought in WW1and I loved him with all my heart and I wish I could share how much the world has changed. He predicted we would be in wars forever when we got into W W1. I could tell him he was right & music is still my favorite thing. Music keeps me sane in a crazy world. I have 2 little Javanese doggies that sleep on my bed and listen to my music. Billy & Molly born on the same day one year apart. They love music too. Life goes in a flash so trying to slow it down. Peace and love to you and your father.
Your father has seen the changes in the world as me . Sounds like he still loves the big bands. End of the Line my favorite and I love songs like Amazing Grace. And a new song, Meant To Be. Listen to it.
elizabeth caywood Meant to Be with those country boys and the little hot blond girl? Great song. Music is awesome. I played an instrument for 15 years all thru school. It made me love and appreciate music so much. Love jazz and blues for the musicianship. But love that same musicianship in regular radio music as well. I really enjoy a well played song. But love stuff that is musically fulfilling if you know what I mean.
I might be old, but you can never put a group together like this again.
Could not agree more- this was the true SUPER GROUP ❤❤Can we please turn the clock back for a while? I am old and grey as they sing it but it is alright?😊😊😊😊😊😊
@@normalovell-w8vIt Would've been interesting IF This Group, gotten together just shortly After the "Black and White Night", that was made for Roy. They might have made 2--3 more records, for Their fans to enjoy.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You aren't old.
Ain’t that the truth!!
I believe it is now illegal to have this much talent in one place at one time...
Probably, but it's moot -- in 2024 there isn't this much talent in the entire frickin' music industry.
My dad died on the 4th July 2020, and this was what he had chosen to be his checking out song, only 10 people were allowed to go to the funeral. Today (23/09/2020), would have been his 66th birthday.
RIP dad - I hope I'm making you proud
Sorry on your loss my late dad was born on this date 1927 died 2012 this a great song
Losing a parent is hard. Just the thought
that you posted his memory and this song that he liked must make him proud.
So sorry for your loss but hearing his choice of music, he sounded like quite a guy! Your dad and I are on the same page for his checking out song. Sums up how I want to be remembered. (am age 70 and thinking ahead)
Stephen Geraghy love to you and yours. Love your dad you have good taste my man. Your not gone and never forgotten u just hovering on the music plane x
Not a bad choice for his checkout song very fitting for the times we are living in, God bless
The Drummer here is a very very humble person, IMO. He hasn't been declared a true member of the Traveling Wilburys. However, he is a TRUE musician. If I recall, he said that he didn't belong among these greats. Well, sir, you DO belong. You are a humble man and a fantastic musician - take a bow sir.

Love how they pay respect to Roy Orbison with his guitar on the rocking chair while we hear his glorious voice. So sad 3 Wilburys are gone now. I'm certain we'll hear them live again in the afterlife. RIP Roy, George and Tom.
So hard to believe they're gone...
@@djm.326 Amen...
Genuinely, I cry every time I watch this when it comes to Roy's part...........
Now you stand on the street corner in Nashville or Memphis with your pants down by your ankles, screaming 😱 out at the top of your lungs something that doesn't make any sense, and some dude with gold chains around his neck pulls up in a Escalade and hands you a million dollar record contract.
What's wrong with this picture 📷 🤔?
All the real story tellers are gone. 😪😓😫
Joyce: Actually Stephen King wrote the short story: "A Hell of a Band" (sorry, just a little levity)
We've just laid to rest my eldest brother this morning..so sad but it's alright..end of the line but he's with the LORD JESUS!
who
Absolutely love the way they paid tribute to Orbison here
Roy and Jeff were great friends
1:40 Roy comes in and NAILS IT! They all do, but seeing that rocking chair at that moment representing him, despite him just having passed away at that time, I'm glad the 4 other legends, who gave so much to my life, got to record with a music hero of theirs
Beautiful!
You could not have said it better
@@AZDC99 well said brother
The empty rocking chair with Roy Orbison’s guitar in it rocking is a wonderful tribute to there lost friend and tugs at this 59 year old heart.
This 55 year old heart was tugged too.
You knew him??
Me too with my 48 year old one!
I was so sad when as soon as I started listening to his music that, about after month, found out that he had already passed away. I really would've loved to have seen The Big O live back in the day
now there are 3 empty chairs...
There's more talent in that one room, then there is in the whole music industry today. RIP Tom, Roy and George
Just give thanks that we were here to hear them
So true.
i totally agree :)
Now this is the most truthful comment I've ever read on RUclips
greenrancher35p
I waited all my life to marry George I'm 75 now
Met him when I was 15
The long and winding road
Lived near Liverpool now I. Cape Town and still waiting ❤❤
Where's the LOVE button.... Sooo much lost talent here. Sad , but grateful to have lived to know true talent!
sad on what the newer generations listen to
OH SO TRUE .... cheers & ROCK ON ....
Maybe pitch it to yt for a love button, sounds like a good idea tho
I’m glad Roy got to finish the game with his friends
My Grandma passed early this morning. 93 years young. This song just fits. Love you Grandma Carolyn.
My condolences Friend . her Love will stay with you forever I'm sure
John Griffith-So sorry for your loss XXX
John griffith...im so sorry for your loss. I hope you keep all of the memories of her close to your heart. That helps alot.
Sorry for your loss
Sorry for your loss man keep on trucking good things on the horizon
This song reminds me of a great old friend we were very close for some time and then drifted away I saw her some years later and all that magic came right back she passed away a couple of years ago God Bless
For a brief moment in history, there was a perfect band.
+
The best brief moment in history band was The Band
The story of how they put this bunch together is really very cool.
Galio Justice Justice..Your comment encapulates the Traveling Wilburys perfectly 👍👍👍
@Anthony Marks - get out 👉🚪
The way they honored Roy here is one of the most wholesome things I've ever witnessed
The rocking chair with guitar and the picture really makes one tear up just a bit. My late grandfather always enjoyed Roy. He really was an underrated talent.
@@bajacore absolutely. To think he wrote a lot of songs that we've all heard, or heard covers of, and yet somehow I never really see his name. I didn't even know who he was before I discovered the Traveling Wilburys. I've read that these guys all mutually respected eachother, but Roy was the one to make everyone feel sorta star struck.
Remember when people used to have class?
Took a few times before I noticed the lights go dark for Roy too.
Absolutely
So much so
Kids, this is what a “supergroup” looks like 🎸
This is the Definition of supergroup!
Exactly RIGHT! I miss Tom just as much as Roy.
Yupper
We say Roy in London Ontario 🇨🇦 in ?1983
He could soar up to those high notes like nobody else!
Damn, just thinking that! Haven’t watched this in an age, but man.
Exactly!! This was when music was great!! Supergroup!!
I lost my father on 9/28/24 and I chose this to be his final song as they took him on his last ride. Hit every note it needed to. Love ya dad!
Guy hug bro.
This song takes on a whole new meaning when you are 80 years old. 😪
Not to mention when you think about losing them one by one :(
Not even that old.
Same with so many passing recently, brings a lump to my throat when Tom Petty sings. At 80 you're outliving many who've recently left, you must be doing something right ❤️
When the view from looking back over your shoulder is a longer sight than the finish line ahead.
I’m feeling you my friend.
Eight years behind you. However, I understand totally. My grandchildren mean everything to me. I've introduced the two eldest to the Travelling Wilburys. I think they get what their songs mean to me.
George was always the best Beatle. Pure class. RIP George Harrison, Roy Orbison and Tom Petty.
Yes. The best Beatle. Forever
. 💖
I was in high school and I cried so much when George Harrison died
✌️💚
It's interesting to me, when the Beatles broke up, the one Beatle most other influential musicians seemed attracted to, and to collaborate with, was....George Harrison.
HAHAHA. I thought I was the only one.
The Traveling Wilburys were the definition of a Super Group. So much talent. This is a superb song.
Bursitis who are you my name is kate
Sad to think 3 members of this band are no longer with us , George Harrison , Tom Petty, and Roy Orbisson . May their memories ever be honoured.
Greatness is never here long enough.
Their music will live on.
More talent in this video than the whole industry today.. magical
You are 100% correct my friend, music today all sounds the same... Basically garbage. Looked at some of the lyrics that they write....Don't know how they sell their albums honestly. Good music ended in the mid eighties with a few exceptions
@@michaelallen3918absolutely Micheal your spot on, how the music industry evolved to what it is today is beyond me..
Very sad the generation of today didn't learn but its partly the record company executives fault just wanting the next big hit.
John I agree I know times of changed in the industry and new generations but wouldn't it be great if the record company's today could just learn from past music production etc.. if they could produce even abit of the old school magic, it would be great for alot of us that miss it 🙂
Miley Cyrus is OK to be fair!
That rocking chair gives me chills and tears every time. What a collection of talent... seriously.
Was a great tribute to Roy...
Great song! Lovely touch for Roy Orbison 😀🎤👍🎸 Tom Petty class vocals too
😢
3 down, we all gotta go some time.👍👏👏👏
Yep.
Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty - it just doesn't get any better than that.
how about Jim Keltner!!!?
@@gerardcornelis They offered him a place as an official Wilbury but he graciously declined; happy to play the part he did. But yeah, Jim was and is every bit a Wilbury :-)
Not to mention they did this out of a shared love for music and each other... Probably why it sounds so good!
I bet they were much happier performing in this group
Chris Cornell
That rocking chair always brings a tear to my eyes. Roy was their in spirit 🙏🏻
No one ever mentions Jim Keltner, without his drumming these songs would not have been quite as good. He is a wonderful drummer
Yes he sure is!!
You just did Sue :)
The unsung heros of music deserve mention. Thanks!
JIM KELTNER! How's that Sue?
Hesure was. Passed away also.
Played this while my Papa's coffin lowered the other week. Was having a bad day yesterday and this popped onto the radio, thanks Papa for reminding me that it will all be alright
My condolences..but it will be allright ..
God Bless you.amen.Lost My Dad in 1991 and it gets no easier.We were tight.
My papa was my best friend he died 7 years ago. I know now he is sitting at the right hand of god reading a book watching an old western western movie waiting for the world to join him. God bless you and I’ll be praying.
Class song
Cuánto talento junto impresionante
Probably the best of the best musicians together playing an awesome song. Just love them all. Who is with me on this awesome group of musicians? This song is timeless.🎶
I’ll have this at my funeral to see me off! Love it, AND them!🥰💔
peggy abrams
Count me in!
We are so fortunate tb able to revisit this whenever we want!
You are right
66 and still rocking to great classics like this !! ❤️
Someday, all the voices will fall silent, including mine. Just remember that there is an end of the line. For all of us. Raise a glass while you can. Shed a tear while you can. And sing.
Beautiful! You have a poetic heart. Love and cheers!
@Joe Bloggs Jeff Lynne leader of E.L.O. His hairs a 'perm' short for Permanent.Tom Petty Used him as a producer and cowriter at times . I think he was in on Harrison's 'Cloud 9' album. Great Group!

Eloquent.
Bruce, this is possibly the most beautiful thing I've read in months. I can feel the warmth of your soul from my house in Michigan. You're the kind of person my grandma called "good juju." Thank you.

Now there's three empty chairs. The world is so much poorer without these folks.
Too true my friend.
we are still listening to their song, energy does not perish, only changes form my Friends.
There are so many empty chairs right now in television, movies, and music.
And this will continue. We're all getting older. But this song will carry on for a long, long time, I think.
Yes it is.

“It’s been getting so rough out here.”
Well Mach one even a ripple you’re going to feel.
Never gets old.
Great music! I love Mr. Harrison, even though he didn't receive Knighthood from The Crown, he'll always be Sir George Harrison to me! These guys were the best! Rick Dwayne Rumpff, Celina, Ohio USA.

my generation may fade away, but it will never be here on reply forever
hear hear yes, indeed. thank you
They were true godsends to everyone...
chair isn't empty
Wow ! These guys still knock my socks off. Rest in peace George, Tom, Roy.
The greatest collaboration that nobody heard of. Loved the fact they all used pseudonyms as their Wilbury characters, no ego, just a group of guys that loved making music. I have both their albums, and the "unknown" Wilbury albums that Harrison/Petty/Lynne put out around the same time with everyone else contributing to the backing vocals/instruments. Just plain old "feel good" kind of music that exemplifies what musicians can create when left to their own devices. damn I miss these guys, what legends!
@ Eloquent Sarcasm when any of these men sing it’s obvious who it is. imo
Being 75 .. Watched many concerts during my young teenage years through my middle aged years. Sadly our younger generation will never experience, The Sixties and Seventies as we …. They were the best years of any generation. Love all performances by the Traveling Wilburys !!!!
3:15 such a cool shot
The worlds first super group! Just so sad Roy went so early with his angelic voice.
Very well said my friend
Excellent summary
I'm torn between the love and happiness of this song and feeling a little bit sad. Anybody feel the same way??
Update: Well, it's been a little over a year and I love all the thumbs up and comments. Their music lives on forever in our hearts..
Oh yeah. Same for me. Sometimes I choke up a bit during Roy's solo. He passed away about the same time my mom did, right when he was having that comeback. And now, with Tom having passed away so tragically... But they all left behind some great music.
Yep, me too. Sometimes Roy's empty rocking chair used to choke me up a bit. Now with Tom gone too...
Yep
I saw them WHOLE live, as a kid.
@@isorokudono Buster Sidebury too?? I don't think he toured with them. Either way. Wow. cool..

From the very first chord to the last, this is one of the few songs I consider to be absolutely perfect. Thirty-five years later, it is still capable of bringing tears to my eyes.
I find it even more meaningful now, when 3 of them are ghosts and I'm getting closer to the "end of the line" myself.
@@teresabenson3385 An elderly gentleman I encountered in my youth told me, you know when your time is nearly up when the musicians, actors and family you once knew are all gone, a sad fact that only truely resonated in my later years.
I know what you mean, it was playing in the supermarket, what a bonus to boring shopping and I got all emotional ❤️
I know exactly what you mean. The very first time I saw this video, I started crying like a baby. I am NOT ashamed to admit that. These guys are one in a million. You don't see talent like this anymore. At least in my opinion. 💔💔💔
And motion to your feet! You just can't listen to this music without tapping your feet or leaping up and out onto the dance floor, which happens to be my hallway and livingroom right now!
I'm 97 next week. Still rockin in my chair like how I was reelin back in the day.
William Henry live long and prosper!
If so, rock on.
God Bless you WH!! Rock On!
God bless and happy birthday
William, you are blessed with musical soul. Not everyone is blessed with it. These awesome guys had it and so much more. I see you at the end of the Line. Enjoy the journey.
Don’t ever forget Jim Keltner. An amazing drummer. The number of artists he has drummed for is amazing. His work with George goes right back to the amazing “Concert for Bangla Desh, the All Things Must Pass album, the Concert for George. His work is brilliant. Just a pity he isn’t mentioned
/acknowledged along with all the other Willburys. Well done Jim
He is one of the best.
I love how he played on the Concert for Bangladesh with Ringo Starr.

These lyrics take on such more meaning since I've been diagnosed with Stage IV cancer.
Petty's voice has such warmth and charisma.
I love this song gives me goosebumps seeing Roy's guitar and the empty chair. What a group.
Same chair and guitar features on Elo's when i was a boy video
Chazz, it's cool that they still included him, even if he passed just before they shot the video
Hallo . Diesen Song (Aufnahme mit Roy Orbison) habe ich vor einiger Zeit von DJ Nilsson reworken lassen. Reinhören lohnt. Gruß Andreas
Too many empty chair nowadays...
About as good as it gets.
George fixed his hair like Dylan's. George loved Dylan and said they were soul mates. Dylan returned that love and George was one of the few true friends Dylan had in this lifetime. George looks like a teddy boy again and is so happy to be playing with all his mates -- no jealousies no egos -- all legends equal to each other and modestly supporting each other -- they make it look so easy.
Real talent and class. None to be seen these days.
TheBluewaterBlonde
- When you are as good as these guys are and were, it probably IS easy. Just a bunch buddies getting together for a couple of days doing what they love...oh yeah, and they all just happen to be superstars!
We have been blessed to hear them at their best!!!
you just look as if they are having fun, yes x
i was told Roy layed down his line then walked out to get lunch. the others didnt know Roy had done his work because his mouth didnt move and thought he was just doing warming up exercises.
both understood the crushing weight of fame and expectations. in some way that the was the basis for understanding each other and they went from there.
I've never been much of a Orbinson fan, but this is arguably the greatest "super" group of all time.
"I'm just happy to be alive." -- Tom Petty
That lyric makes me shed a teat every time I hear it
Doesn't matter how many times I listen to this song. It's always great.
And I think think the same . 25.2.2020
Yea I suppose “it’s alright”
How can anything by them not be incredible? They were a band of revered legends.
Yes indeed. It's ALWAYS great!!! Even at 70 years old, it makes me smile and dance around the room :-) It doesn't get better than THAT, does it?
FOR ME TOO..... PURE MUSICAL MAGIC.
RIP To some absolute legends - Only Jeff and Bob remain. Thank you all for providing decades of wonderful Music
A very existential song. Three Wilburys died fairly young. As I go deeper into my 60s I think more and more about "the end of the line". I must say, that as the years have gone by, the fun times seem to have diminished. But, I guess it's alright even if the sun don't shine. Thank you, Wilburys.
You said that so very well.😊 65 and still going strong and I hope you are too🎶🎵
Well it's all right, even it's the end of the line. Think of all you can do till then! Make a list of all you can do to make the people around you happy. Go ut good, man!!
73 and just got back from taking my Vette around Talladega Super Speedway hitting 145 on turn 1. Only got to 4th gear out of 6. Do it every year a couple of times. The End of the Line is when you make it.

Penguins Hockey521 too much talent in one band a few of the members had to die unfortunately
Well, there´s only one thump to give!
Of course, they still sadly missed. :(

Heaven is starting to corner the market on talent these days for absolute certain. I guess its an absolutely certain opinion. I got it in D.C. LOL
So much talent. Great great. Miss George, Tom, Roy.
It's the summer of 2020..and I'm noticing this song still gets a lot of clicks.
And it should... because it's an amazing song.
RIP Roy Orbison, George Harrison, Tom Petty ✌️🎸
SeaBass SeaBass It's just timeless. One of the last great supergroups.
My dad died on the 4th July 2020, and this was what he had chosen to be his checking out song, only 10 people were allowed to go to the funeral. Today (23/09/2020), would have been his 66th birthday.
RIP dad - I hope I'm making you proud
Breaks my heart to see the empty rocking chair with Roys guitar.
I love it that they honored him though.
At least he was there for the recording session..
me too
Also notice that while he's singing the video gets darker...going through a tunnel...showing respect/love although he's no longer with us?
Even more so knowing George and Tom are no longer with us as well.
A 72 year old scouser who just loves great music
A 38 year old Dubliner saying the same
They were all in their 40s (except Orbison who was 53, and Petty who was only 38), already legends who could have just coasted and put out a covers album of their hits, but rather produced this absolute masterpiece.
It's alright
It is awe inspiring to see them all in one room. I like the moments when they're clearly just having fun hanging out and making music. I don't think George Harrison was an easygoing person, but you can see him enjoying the moment here.
