"Roy Orbison Sings" is an album by American singer-songfriend Roy Orbison, released in 1972. This album marked Orbison's return to MGM Records following a one-album stint with Mercury Records. However, it did not achieve the commercial success expected. The album featured various music styles, including the country, rock and roll, and acoustic elements that are typical for Orbison, but the tracks did not chart in the U.S.
The two single releases from the album (#45 & #46), "God Love You" and "Remember the Good," did not fare well. One significant track in this album is the haunting ballad "It's Too Late," which achieved popularity despite not being released as a single. "Roy Orbison Sings" is an interesting phase in Orbison's career, showcasing his versatility and profound vocal abilities. Despite the album's lack of commercial success, it is beloved by many dedicated fans for its sentimental value and Orbison's undeniable musical talent.
