Roy Orbison - The Comedians (Black & White Night 30)

You have been awarded 1 Power Point for fixing the embed code for Dead Pool video Crying ~ Roy Orbison Show (1965). Thank you for helping maintain VideoSift's reliability.

Of course you're begging. For some reason on the sift music videos from interesting new stuff to classics struggle to get ten lousy upvotes. I've got 9 in my personal queue, any of which have to be worth at least that much. And Roy Orbison definitely is too.

14 octave range? - Hardly. In fact she didn't hit any of the high notes in the song at all.
And there is no way her voice could hit the lower octaves.
Roy Orbison had a 3-4 octave range and was considered one of the best. I have no idea where the claim she can hit14 octaves - That's absurd
Soprano: C4 – C6
Mezzo-soprano: A3 – A5
Contralto: F3 – F5
Tenor: C3 – C5
Baritone: F2 – F4
Bass: E2 – E4
When you have an octave that means that the two notes are exactly 8 notes apart, hence the "oct" part in the word. This means that the octave of D is D. You count 8 notes from the starting note. i.e.
D, E, F, G, A, B, C, D= 8 notes all together

I think a description revision might be necessary. Thanks for the input on this!

What pulled me in (and what usually does as a former psychedelics connoisseur) was the music.

That being said, the songs are
1) Roy Orbison - In Dreams (if you don't know that one, get out of my house)
2) NIN - Right Where it Belongs v1
3) Burial - Forgive
4) Stereo Total - Aua

Hi Kitty-kat.

How are things in California?

Crazy as usual? In the good way?

Denver is still for the moment.

Lots of people moving into the building for some crazy reason.
