Roy Orbison and How to Make a Man Cry
Roy Orbison
If Roy Orbison's life were to be condensed into a song, it would find itself in close company with the most extreme lyrical songs out there - i.e. "Died in a Car Crash" or "Breathing Underwater." His tragic life (lost four loved ones) led to his writing and he became one of the first real men to sing about crying about a girl. Though it seems somewhat common in a post-Dashboard Confessional day and age, this was a radical step in the early 60's.
