Favorite Roy Orbison single?
"In Dreams" has got to be the best, in my book. Great melody, the falsetto doesn't get too weird or floaty, and Dean Stockwell lip-sang it quite well on the silver screen. Anyways, what a voice!

7. That's not why we hate you.
:patriot:

It's almost mandatory that someone said it. Ain't it?

5. Pretty Woman
Not much in the world better than that...

Love the video version from "Black & White Night" where Bruce Springsteen attempts a guitar duel with James Burton... made the Boss look like a Mel Bay reject. LOL

10. I love the stuff he did with the Wilburys
You're Not Alone is probably my favorite. But Pretty Woman, that was a damned fine song too.
