Crying/ Candy Man

Originally released on Monument 447. Note how far this single is near the top of Dave Marsh's list of the 1,001 great singles of Rock'n'Soul. You'd think owning position #103 would be a big achievement for any artist... or at least, I would. But in the case of Orbison, you'd be wrong. Position 103 is only in the middle of the 7 songs that represent him in that total of 1,001. Ahead of "Crying" are three songs in the Top 100: \r\n

\r\n
1. Only The Lonely (#17)\r\n
2. Oh Pretty Woman (#39), and\r\n
3. In Dreams (#66)

5. Running Scared (#323)\r\n
6. Blue Bayou (#403), and\r\n
7. It's Over (#999)
