This would be appropriate to play at my funeral or wake.. | Reviewer: Calvin XCampbell
------ About the song In Dreams performed by Roy Orbison
Assuming my wife Rose passes before I do I would hope to have this played at my wake. I think it would be comforting for my children and friends to know that I was thinking of her even in death and looking forward to joining up with her.
Yote Amo Maria | Reviewer: Artis
------ About the song Yote Amo Maria performed by Roy Orbison
Straight up my favorite Roy Orbison song. I'm 6o years old, born in 1948. I was a boy and a teenager when Roy Orbison was the Man. This song was a B-side, on a 45 of Pretty Woman, I think.

This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. It has beautiful lyrics and that melody & his voice are so melted together. They are just perfect together and that's what made Roy Orbison a music legend as he was and altough he's gone he still is a legend and somebody to look up to.

Orbison At His Best | Reviewer: Rufus
------ About the song In Dreams performed by Roy Orbison
In Dreams is easily one of the more striking and powerful songs Orbison ever conducted, the song it's self even brought him to tears as he would sing it. If you seriously want to know how great "The Big O" was and what sums him up as a singer, its In Dreams.

------ About the song Find My Baby For Me performed by Roy Orbison
This song is absolutely underrated. It may seem typical of the songs released around the same time but this song has a little more to offer. The backbeat has an unrelenting drive, the melody is contagious and the lyrics’ with their overly dramatic nature are completely charming and are also concise to an almost poetic form. All these characteristics make the song utterly addictive. up.to/thestalker

------ About the song Walk On performed by Roy Orbison
probably one of the most haunting songs and lyrics I ve ehaver heardi have ever heard .
I am surprised it doesn't appear more often
on CD's. I would guess it was first recorded
in the arly sixties. I would welcome any
further info anyone can provide.

The song of the decades of summer! | Reviewer: Jack Rickers
------ About the song Indian Summer performed by Roy Orbison
To my mind "Indian Summer", a duet with Larry Gatlin, is one of the greatest
songs ever written and performed. I hear it now for over a decade and it never gets boring to listen to this masterpiece!
