Our Take

Ah, Roy Orbison, the king of heartbreak. Just when you thought you couldn't possibly shed any more tears, along comes "Unchained Melodies: Roy Orbison & The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra" to remind you that love can be as painful as it is beautiful. The marriage of Orbison's haunting vocals with the lush arrangements of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra is a match made in musical heaven. From the opening notes of "Oh, Pretty Woman" to the final strains of "Crying," each track on this album is a masterclass in emotion, delivered with a level of artistry that only Orbison could muster. The orchestral accompaniment adds a depth and richness to Orbison's already powerful voice, creating a sound that is at once timeless and utterly captivating. Songs that may have seemed familiar before are imbued with new life, new meaning, and new heartache. Standout tracks include the achingly beautiful "Only the Lonely" and the epic "In Dreams," each showcasing Orbison's uncanny ability to convey the pain and longing that comes with lost love. And let's not forget the show-stopping duet with k.d. lang on "Crying," a rendition that will leave you breathless and reaching for the tissues. "Unchained Melodies" is a testament to the enduring power of Roy Orbison's music and a fitting tribute to one of the greatest voices of all time. So grab a glass of wine, light some candles, and prepare to be swept away by the sheer beauty of this album. Tears are optional, but highly recommended.
