Love this comment, you done took the words out my mouth! He was admirable to a fault, and that doesn't even make sense. It's easy to realise that alot of people in the entertainment biz are fucked, it's harder to remember that there are exceptions to the rule.

Allison Burke I was an adult when Roy Orbison died. My father had been a fan for decades. Only recently did I catch on to just how remarkable he was. I sure wish he were around so I could go to one of his shows. After seeing the video of "You Got It," which is one of my favorite songs, I feel cheated. I sure wish he had stopped smoking. What a kind and remarkably talented entertainer. One of a kind. RIP, Roy.

I saw Roy Orbison live at the Sydney Entertainment Centre, Australia, when I was in my late teens. He was amazing, just came on stage, stood in front of the mike with his band backing him and sang and brought the house down. No strobe lights, smoke bombs or dancing girls just pure entertainment. Brilliant. What a loss. Sad. R.I.P., Roy.

Such a nice, humble person who had been through so much tragedy with his wife & 2 boys dying so young... I was only 4 when he sadly died but his music has hit a chord with me ever since I was little.

Rob C British people are just more genuine. After 25 years he could have said you look a lot older,but he didn't look very much different apart from putting on a few pounds. He did look pretty skinny in the older clips they showed. If you want to hear a real insult,you should meet my mother,she always opens her mouth before engaging her brain. I much prefer this style of interviewing than the American interviewers,they are what I would call brown nose interviewers. It is so sycophantic. I thought Roy looked very relaxed,and it seems to me that our modern political correctness brains,were enraged to hear a normal human interaction from 32 years ago.
