- Roy Orbison and this all-star cast of friends (Bruce Springsteen, k.d. lang, Elvis Costello and more) perform Roy's "It's Over," recorded for the Monument Records label. This video is from "A Black and White Night," available on Blu-Ray and DVD at RoyOrbison.com!
When you return to Roy Orbison after being away for a while you suddenly realise that the quality of his voice is beyond comparison.
Amen to that!
This is live???
Just brilliant
So very true! He was an amazing man and still is ❤️
I agree by and large, but I like Patsy Cline's voice too.
Exactly right! That’s where I’m at right now. I’ve been listening to Roy’s solo work and also his work with the Traveling Wilburys non-stop.
Elvis Presley called Roy Orbison the greatest singer in the world!! Roy is truly the King!!!
And that's a hell of a complainant coming from the king
Jeg elsker Roy Orbinson stemme og sange. ❤
yes he did
Who is Elvis 😂
Called him the big O 😊❤
Unlike most singers, Roy Orbisons voice just got better as he got older. Amazing. Still one my all time favorite singers. Unmatched talent.
Yes, his voice did improve as he hot older! It was obvious to me, too.
Gone to soon 😭 Roy was always a fav miss him dearly.😇🥰
Totally unmatched! 😥😢
I followed Roy all my life.
When I hear Roy sing I cant help but tear-up. His voice makes me weep like a baby. The beauty of his power and deep passion he unleashes in his songs
is overwhelming to me. I could listen to him sing for eternity. The man was an angel!!
lets tone it down a little to reality
Desert Island choice Orbison's Catalog..could live on this forever..
@@mach8147 Rejected. If anything, the accolades fall short. Orbison was unmatched. No peer.
@@ruthlessgoat3702 I can agree.
@@mach8147 Reality I’m all for, mate. But do not dare to think that you can drag Roy Orbison down to your mundane, middle-management failed existence. Your life appears toned down further than most would accept.
Roy, Elvis and Jackie Wilson are in a class of there own
It goes without saying that Orbison had one of the greatest voices of all time ( and my personal favorite ), but let’s also stop to appreciate how beautiful the following lyrics are:
“All the rainbows in the sky,
start to weep and say goodbye.
You won’t be seeing rainbows anymore.”
Truly a wonderful man and his singing just beautiful miss you Roy
Yet I believe his Heart Soul Voice Mind was pretty Super Natural.
The greatest voice in the history of mankind. Period
:)...I understand your passion...but that's too bold of a statement...You want to hear a great voice? ruclips.net/video/1sFy5_kmEi4/видео.html Jay and the Americans -- Cara mia...
Absolutely!
Filled by Gene Pitney, then Jay ( from Jay and the Americans).
No dancing no movement no big show lights just Roy and a mike and a grand musician band epic
Roy was the best singer who ever lived!
His voice was a gift from heaven! I've
never heard anyone so perfect! RIP in
Heaven Roy! I know the angels Love You!!
Even at my age now of 76 I still revel in the music of the 60's and 70's. It was all the greatest back then and we didn't know how spoiled we were to be in that great era of music. Roy Orbison had a very unique voice and his music was some of the best and will live on forever.
I'm 79 and with you there. Having lived in Switzerland for the past 55 years, when I hear Roy and close my eyes, I am back in my bedroom in London with all my crushes and heartaches
@@mariagatzi3945 ❣❣
Totally great era of singers and musicians
You are absolutely correct
Best Era of music and singers of 60s and 70s.
Am attending my Mum's funeral tomorrow. She was an avid RO fan. We've chosen In dreams. Grew up listening to him, he was untouchable. Absolutely stunning
RACHEL GREEN sorry to hear that ,the big O now that's the way to go your mother would be happy having him played,listening to him always brings tears
Sorry for your loss Rachel...know how you feel...I did some 2 years ago for my womans funeral of Roy..x
yy
i'm sorry for your löss....let the music heal your hart....big kisses from belgium
Good for you gal.
Simply put..Roy Orbison one of if not the greatest of our generation.and maybe the next one to come..he was just that good!
Agree with what all of the comments, not a singer? around today that can touch him
Amen
Nobody in this day and age comes anywhere close to Roy. And all he did was sing ❤️ he didn’t have to do anything else! His voice was so DIVINE ❤️💜
Did you watch BBC 2 last night superb programmes about him!
Very very true ,Roy was awesome
No, they don't come close.
So true.
Im still listening and still fresh as ever and such memories. Bles you roy.
Roy Orbisons incomparable voice. His
majestic vocalizations of every note. No
one could ever duplicate the soul energy and passion his voice delivered.
There never was any singer as good as Roy. There never will be! He's in heaven now. Entertaining as usual. RIS
Rest in Song!!
Roy Orbison! Simply the best!!
still cant stop playing his records he was a one off
There's a reason nobody tried to cover Roy's songs; nobody could match, or even approach his voice. The range, the beautiful tone, the strength, and the sadness was totally unique. I was 13 when I heard him for the first time on Ed Sullivan singing 'Pretty Woman' in 1964. Have not heard a voice to compare since. But it was more than just the voice. He sang love stories and the heart he put into them made them epics. He had a difficult life despite his talent. I hope he's found peace, and I hope he knows how much he meant to so many.
+buckfan1969 Brandi Carlile - It's Over (Bing Lounge)
What he said!
+GalacticKush Great cover, love her voice but it lacks the sadness Roy shows with his voice, the authenticity
I think only Chris Isaak dared. n made those a true tribute.
I'm sure a lot of people cover this all the time. I heard 3 before I got to this video. And they were decent.
The unexpected twists and turns of chords and numbers of beats, the completely non-standard unconventional construction of the verses... no A-B-A-B-Middle 8-Chorus-Repeat for Roy Orbison. This song is stunning in its beauty and structure. That voice, those songs, and he was always such a kind gentleman -- beauty, integrity, elegance and power in motion.
Roy Orbison, the best medicine for my broken heart, because I cry and my soul cleans.I love his voice.
ItsoverItsoverItsover
crying here too!
Rqy Orbison war unvergleichlich. Seine Stimme war einmalig! So viel Gefühl in der Stimme sie rührt zu Tränen und man bekommt Gönsehaut! Einfach unvergessen! ❤😢
One of the greatest songs ever!
No one, I repeat NO ONE can top this man and his exquisite voice. R.I.P. Roy your singing with the angels in Heaven. THANK YOU for your music & talent...like no other!
I listened to this song over and over again when my wife of 28 yrs and I divorced I cried many tears
Sorry Dude
I know your pain.
Great love, respect & appreciation to Roy and his entourage
The music Back then was real talent! Bernd 2024👍🌹
I missed the BBC program about Roy Orbison every night I'm watching his videos and playing his music and I never get tired of it. I just have to keep playing it over and over and over.How can this be!💐💐💐❤️❤️❤️.RIP ROY ORBISON
I am now 66, I saw the Beatles Live and Roy Orbison was on the same bill, I was so anxious to see the Beatles all the other acts were just delays as far as I was concerned. I watched Top of the Pops every week and when Roy Orbison was on my attention was diverted elsewhere. Bottom line I never cared for him. When I was in my 30s I found a cassette ( yup ) of Roy's greatest hits, I threw it on for a laugh, from the very first note I was mesmerized !!! the sound of his voice, his delivery the arrangements just fantastic. Then there were those lyrics, WOW !!!!!!I am not ashamed to say I cried during a couple of songs that catapulted me back in time to some bad decisions I made and how I hurt a few people. Roy Orbison you are one of the greatest voices in the world. Thank You ( sorry if this was too long)
you are so lucky ! you saw the Beatles! WOW
Luiza Howell sorry but the Beatles where rubbish poor singers but good songs, they where arrogant too.
It's never too long about such a great artist and memories connected with him. Thank you for this touching reflection. Music unites generations and nations. I am from Poland, I am 25 now and crying too, while listening those masterpieces and thinking of my life. Wishing you all the best!
murray L no with time you love hime more saw him live awesame
murray L by
30+ years since Roy ..nobody has matched or compared to him a real legend!!
This song speaks directly to anyone who's ever had their heart broken by someone they loved deeply. I've been there.
me to
@@josephcapasso2469 we've all been there :(
Just going through it myself crazy
God bless to all who have been thru a breakup. It hurts so much, yes me too.
So true. I've been there too. Thank you Roy!!
We talk he sings ...its effortless ❤
I saw Roy perform in 1961 in Adelaide, and still remember it vividly. What a voice... just awesome.
His voice was unique. My heart beats, when he sings. RIP Roy, Legends never die.❤
Without a doubt, the greatest vocalist ever.
An incredible songwriter.
He was a member of the greatest supergroup ever with the Travelling Wilburys
He toured Britian along with the Beatles in 1963.
Roy Orbison is a true legend and will forever be remembered.
Elvis’ favorite singer and his drummer, guitarist and bass player were in this concert. Great DVD
Listening to ROY ORBISON the TEARS will never be over
Me and sue bless saw Roy Orbison. Twice. And it was a special moment. Your music lives on as sue in my heart xx
Oh. My. God. The ONLY performer Elvis said he would never follow on stage, because he believed R.O. had the best voice he had ever heard. Hard to dispute The King on this one. Just LISTEN! Bliss. The boy is heart rending bliss. xoxo P
Paty Lombard x
And to think, this is after years of til, heartache and tragedy. Losing children and a wife to death, even a heart surgery. But, listen to this beautiful heartwrenching melody that Roy brings in this scene.
You know, it must have been surreal, but back in the day, Orbison was touring with the Beatles!!! Their music styles are so completely different, I just can't imagine the same audience listening to Orbison and the Beatles in the same venue.. Roy said, when the Beatles performed you couldn't hear them because of the screaming and hysteria and he just thought what's the point of that.. but when he sang, you could hear a pin drop and then he got applaud after. Roy said as he got more famous and was performing to thousands and some of the girls began screaming and wanting to touch and grab him from the edge of the stage and after the show, that scared him. He wasn't that kind of entertainer.
I remember Roy told of his first encounter with the Beatles when he was pushed into touring with them in USA.. he had no idea who they were. And in the venue they had put cardboard cut-outs of the Beatles logo and faces etc where Roy had to rehearse..and he said move all this stuff off the stage....what the hell's a beatle anyway?? John tapped him on the shoulder and said, I'm one. lol
Paul and Ancila .........quite right. Fast-forward to when Roy was with The Traveling Wilburys, another “Beatle” George Harrison remarked how incredibly difficult it was to even concentrate when a man with such an incredible voice was alongside him. George said Roy’s voice gave him “chills”. It’s nothing short of astonishing to think this performance was only a little over a year before Roy died, imo, his voice was better than ever!
@@paullangton-rogers2390 The Beatles didn't want to follow Roy either! They also tried to sound like him. Everyone had a great love and respect for Roy.
Devastating performance. What a VOICE!
Never before, never since, never again , a voice like Roy Orbison (:
I Love ROY......But Elvis Is Def., the best singer Of all them Singers,,,,,even 2-this day....Roy songs............ though I Love them,seem 2 have the same Beat
right there Stu..
Elvis Presely You could be right, but Elvis hardly ever wrote his own songs,where Roy wrote 90% of his songs!!! Both great singers in their own right,but it was Elvis himself that said Roy had the best voice he ever heard!!
95% Of Singers do not write there own Songs.....That's why there are Song Writers that can't Sing...........
Elvis Presely You must have been in diapers at the time ,because Roy did in fact write most of his songs. Don't reply if your just talking, and don't really know what in fact your talking about!!! Roy ,and Elvis were great but Roy had the range ,power, and sound like no other.!!!! If you like Elvis so much ,click on one of his video's and listen to your hearts content, because this site here is about the Big O !!!!. Case closed!!!!
I was lucky enough to see Roy twice in Concert in the late 70's, his talent is unmatched.
Such a magical voice. No one will ever come close to his angelic voice.
Absolutely
Roy is top of the chart. I wish I had a voice like Roy.
Ovakav glas može imati samo čovjek pun emocija. Mehaničari ( ja tako zovem pjevače bez emocija) koji nisu u stanju plsirati svoje emocije kroz svoj glas, nemaju što tražiti ispred mikrofona
Fantastic. Unbelievable the voice. Never heard sutch a beautiful??? No words ..
Roy Orbison is the anti-modern singer. He didn't need rely on a flashy stage show, auto tuning, over mixing, a raucous lifestyle to make headlines. He was quite simply, yet so supremely...a voice. A voice that alone stirs, still today, so many souls. Mine included. And I think that's exactly how he preferred it to be. Just a man, some lyrics scribbled by his broken heart and that voice that leaves us all a little better off in life, for having been graced by it. Imagine how excited the choirs of angels were when our dear Roy joined them that day. We all love you Roy and gratefully keep your memory alive today. Thank God for Roy Orbison and his gift to us.
this man had a very very difficult life which made him a great great great singer! Then straight to Heaven !
I do not know how anyone can endure the tragedies suffered by Mr Orbison only to die aged 52 years old
He’s gone but his voice and songs are immortal. There will be no repeat of Roy’s talent.
An expression of the sad and sorrowful soul , beautifully done .
One of the greatest songs ever written and Roy nailed it. Big Daddy
It is true what Elvis once said that Roy was the best singer in the world.Roy’s songs are so true and loving I still listen to his music today 2023 both Elvis are singing together in Paradise R.I.P.🇬🇧💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
A God given talent. We shall never see his like again, but his magnificent songs will last to the end of time. A true musical genius whose personal life was filled with tragedy. A lovely, very modest man, who was greatly admired by his millions of fans around the world and who once said that he would just like to be remembered! Who could ever forget such a truly unique voice. He was indeed the Caruso of popular music.He died far too young and is missed greatly by his millions of fans.
transcends everything, this is music at its profound beauty. All the muscians up there with him know it, and soaking it in.
a voice like no other; a genius. Saw him on stage in early 60s; RESPECT
Legendary performance in every way! What else can one say? The Great R.O.-
If you can't enjoy Roy's music, then you just don't enjoy life. What a singer and person.
🎯
You took the words out of my
mouth, when he recorded
Black and white night with a
band that couldn't be greater.
And just knocked me out every
song was perfection.
An absolute LEGEND.
If you don’t get a tingle down your spine from this wonderful, majestic voice, then either you are unfortunate to have a hearing disability or you are dead inside.
Roy Orbison left us too soon.
A true genius. Totally unique with a voice that was gift from the gods that he used for us to ache and fight back our own tears. He was simply wonderful.
Roy shows the kids how it's done. Watch the looks on their faces throughout the whole concert,they know they're in the presence of greatness,and at his age, just incredible.
What an amazing performance, Roy of course, but also all the musicians - sounds just like a record!
That voice that voice.Magnificent.
Love Roy Orbison, reminds me of my dad who I lost suddenly 14 yrs ago xx
HOW GREAT IS GREAT? ROY MAY BE THE BEST VOICE AROUND...AND WHAT A GREAT SUPPORTING CAST.
he is irriplaceable. I loved his voice since i was 14 years old. I am now in my seventies and still love him.he had such tragedy in his life .and to lose him so young was a tragedy for us all.
One of the greatest heartbreak songs ever written or sung.
Love this one with him and KD Lang singing. I had front seat of watching them sing that Black and White Night.
The most beautiful song ever about lost love.
A great singer the best.....even Elvis Presley said Roy Orbison is the only person that could out sing him....unbelievable voice.
From the depths of his soul, this man had so much tragedy in his life. Simply stunning sends a shiver down the spine.
No
A Man that has had Unbearable Grief and sings his sorrows 🌹💞
He lived what he sang
One of the few artists that voice has not changed over all the years he was here with us. What a true blessing.
It never began.
Most beautiful male voice ever!
Listening during Corona pandemic in 2020!
And into 2021!

Hes probably dead now from crona
N o voice will ever be like Roy--Elvis said he was the best singer in the world--RIP Roy
I love everyone of Roy's songs. What a voice.
I love them all too, Colleen !!
There’s no one can ever replace you Roy Orbison ! You’re a legend ❤️
This is the ultimate song about heartbreak and the loss of love. It is sung by a man who possessed a voice like no other, a voice from heaven.
He wrote it after his wife Claudette cheated on him while he was away on tour. They divorced but remarried a few years later. Then she died in a motorcycle accident and it really was over!
@@CB-xr1eg Thanks for that. I didn't know about Claudette's being unfaithful or the divorce; it tends not to be mentioned in the film bios shown on TV. It's understandable that, with her husband away for such long periods and cut off from the family, she might look for solace elsewhere.
@@CB-xr1eg
@@patmelton43 Yes PAT??
To millions of us it will never be..... *It's Over* with
Roy Orbison. 🎙🎸.🎶
great talent, brillant song writer's, beautifully unique singing vocals will always live long in our memories for centuries...
ruclips.net/video/hwTXUqyxmdw/видео.html You might enjoy Gerry Grant Tribute artist singing It's over live. He sounded and looked like the Big O. He too is gone. Big O met Gerry in a night club in Manchester and was impressed
Anyone still listening to the legend in 2019
Yeh
Me every single day.
I am I Love Roy
Always!
# me to
Such a great singer, what great memories RIP Roy.
it's 1960 - I'm 11 yrs old with a small transistor radio, living in Vegas - listening and singing to, crying to, smiling to, memorizing and being mesmerized by this golden voice - that was over 50 yrs ago and he's my "go to" listening just because - I didn't know what a broken heart was nor had I been in or out of love yet - but just one of those people who I connected with entirely because of the beauty of his songs and voice.
I'm in Melbourne Australia at the same time and I'm 10 years old also listening to Roy on my little transistor. Fortunately I got to see him live in the mid 70's, and its a concert I'll never forget.
I was one year older, like you, transistor radio, earphone, listen all night-magic voice, magic talent
I am from Australia & remember when I was your age, listening to Roy Orbison on a borrowed transistor. I tried to stay awake during school holidays just to listen to him & Elvis. Kind regards, Robin.
Grew up with my daddy listening to Roy, now I'm hooked.
Not like the shite playing nowadays.
This is proper music.
Roy's hits played on my 8 track player throughout my teen years. Today, 60 years later, he still
sounds stellar. Singularly one of the best voices our Lord ever gifted. RIP Roy. Our world misses you.
It's not over, I want to keep listening, the vocals, lilting violins, chorus and orchestral backing are timeless. Wonderful !
It's not over because it never began.
This guy was under estimated Roy was equal to elvis even better! No doubt in my mind .... he hardly opens his mouth to get those notes!!!! Leaves you amazed just watching Roy Orbisons mouth 😍😇🤩😎
it never even began
God broke the mold when He made Roy Orbison! ... Claudette & Barbara were so lucky to have been married to Roy!! As Barbara said about first meeting Roy, and how they got along, "He was such a nice man!"
When he died, I cried like he was a family member. Sleep in Peace, Brother.
Clear evidence that a loving God does not exist. Roy was a gift, and had a very tragic life...A life that was over much too soon.
Powerful beautiful voice✨💫
Best male singer ever and lived such a tragic life.
@Joanne Gibson How could anyone give this masterpiece a thumbs down? They must be tone deaf. MORONS.
"The artist must suffer..."
he always did this little 'gasp' for air with a hint of smile after he delivers all those powerful notes at the end of each song..effortless looking but supreme control and superhuman abilities with his voice..he knew it too..but was ALWAYS humble..
Llega al corazón, al alma y más allá. Un fenómeno.
Such a unique voice ,one that cannot be replaced.
The best! RIP Roy!
Roy était vraiment exceptionnel ! Je suis un fan mais j'adore Elvis qui adorait lui-même Roy ....
Saw him live many years ago in Croydon Sorry England. I was transfixed by his fabulous voice! I could not believe I was actually there listening to his wonderful music. Truly one of the best there has ever been!
Saddest song ever....... superb version.
Roy Orbison sang abut the great mystery of love where there is no solution, there is only eternal hope. His songs take us into a room and we hear the thrill and threat of the mystery in the dark where nothing is seen and everything is revealed.
I'm gonna have to think about this...
The guitar player, in the white jacket, over Roy Orbison's right shoulder is James Burton, a member of the Rock and Roll HOF and is really, really good. Pull up 'Blue Angel' from Black and White Night and key in on his play.
