*FIRST TIME HEARING* RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS - UNCHAINED MELODY (LIVE 1965) | REACTION

[@1211foster]

You made me smile! Good song!

[@okie-kan9240]

I am with you! He is Bobby Hatfield. This was created for a movie about a prisoner.

[@cdfdesantis699]

They both had 2 of the finest male voices in modern music. Thanks for your reaction.

[@fernandopessoa7077]

Great reaction..

[@tow5384]

The song was written for a prison movie called "UNchained" in 1955, sung by a black opera singer named Todd Duncan - the clip is on KZbin. Roy Hamilton and Sam Cooke, two black singers, released it in 1955 (also on KZbin). But this version was the one that knocked it out of the park. Since then, it's been sung by hundreds of singers. None have sung it as well as Bobby.

[@jwb52z9]

Bobby had a rare voice called a countertenor. It's the equivalent of a high soprano. He had a 4.5 to 5 octave range.

[@suemoore6445]

If you haven’t reacted to You’ve lost that loving feeling, please do. Both Bill Medley and the late Bobby Hatfield sing that one together. Before they did any TV performances, many thought they were Black. They got booked at the renown Apollo Theatre (usually an all black venue). Imagine the shocked reaction of the crowd when they walked out, but they soon won them over!

[@wendykimbrell9337]

It is a solo because Bill thought it was going to be a flop. Bob never let Bill forget how popular this song was and still is. The song has been performed by many artists over the years and used in a lot of movies. I LOVE to watch people born after the 80's because this was before autotune and huge mixing systems. Real raw talent that hit deep into the soul❤❤❤

[@tiacalhoun3841]

This is on the Ghost soundtrack with Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore and Whoopi Goldberg….this was a flawless live performance by the late great Bobby Hatfield

[@opheliasoto902]

He already had a female crying and goosebumps all over.....wow!!

[@jimnicosia5934]

I remember seeing this on TV when I was sixteen.

[@DenaeK]

Ghost. 🥰🥰🥰 One of my favorite movies. This song was also a favorite of my grandpa's, so it's extra special to me. 😃💙🕊️

[@serafyo]

This song was in the movie Ghost

[@Christina-bl4cv]

just pure talent! best version of this song period.

[@martinsmusic1724]

No auto tune. No flashing lights. No dancers. Just talent.

[@lindahansen4675]

The awesome Bobby Hatfield

[@michaelwoodman8376]

Bobby Hatfield is his name. There are 2 singers....this song he does solo. They played this song in the movie..'GHOST'.

[@zacharywood6138]

Good reaction man, such an amazing unforgettable song, forever this song will remain.

[@janetgallo5720]

Bobby Hatfield, the purest most talented singer in the world

[@maryanngarrimone1153]

Awww...the late Bobby Hatfield! I was 15 yrs old when I watched him sing this beautiful song on the Andy Williams show in 1965. He owns this song. No auto tune, just pure raw talent. I'm 74 yrs old, and I never get tired of listening to him sing this song. RIP Bobby! We miss you! 💖 💖💖

[@lynnhoffmann247]

You have to hear them sing “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling” 🔥🔥🔥 Most requested song on the radio in the 20th century. They flipped a coin to see which brother would sing this - live & No auto tune!! Blue eyed soul!

[@dorothykelley1881]

Update the other brother said he didn't think it would be a hit, that's why he didn't sing it...Said he Kicks himself over not singing it...I can see why...

[@cup_cuppy_cuppers5817]

@Lynn Hoffman - 1) You TELL/demand/command "You have to" Ok Sceez to HEAR anything I want you to hear. Who the hell are you? Compounded by 2) You believe the Internet - 'cuz, the internet is nothing but truth, although I read anonymous texts/posts/comments (call them what you want; same/same) and believe everything they say'. You talk out of your ass while demanding people listen to you. Good job you did, explaining how the term "Blue eyed soul" came to be.

[@kellidomiano9715]

Probably heard it in the movie Ghost with Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore. If you havent seen that movie do yourself a big favor and watch it NOW!! Its top 5 movies of all time.

[@PrettyFixedStars]

The movie you’re talking about is “Stand By Me” You gotta check out the live version “Summertime” by Bobby Hatfield. Amazing!!

[@79BlackRose]

Bobby Hatfield man - one of the best pop vocalists. Notice how there is no strain in his face. No veins sticking out of his neck or forehead. The studio version he did of this is good, but this is even better!

[@agapeo4137]

Bobby Hatfield is his name listen to him rip his power in his solo "Summertime"

[@cjcookj85]

"You've lost that loving feeling" also gets my vote.

[@SanJoseBob]

You just heard the “Most Played “ song of the 20th Century. (Guinness World Récords). Live, No Autotune, No Dancing Girls, No Pyrotechnics, just a Man with his Mic and a Sh*tload of talent, Bobby Hatfield of The Righteous Brothers. You miss the intro, they’re on the Andy Williams Show and he asked them to do this song and Bill Medley ( the other brother) says that Bobby does that one by himself, so he does. Check out their “Soul & Inspiration”, Fire!….. SanJoséBob

[@SanJoseBob]

I have to correct myself, their other song, “You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling” by the Righteous Brothers is the “Most Played” song in the 20th Century……. SanJoséBob

[@allenpierce4575]

you have also listen to righteous brothers - summertime

[@kikivon3501]

If you looked it up I bet this song has been on hundreds of soundtracks. You cannot live long on this earth without hearing this song. It’s timeless, it’s universal

[@zachuram]

Great reaction!

[@hekatesraven7081]

1964, no auto tune ect, just his voice, its called blue eye soul...

[@LaptopLarry330]

When The Righteous Brothers would record an album, each of them would sing one song sung solo. Both of them wanted to sing “Unchained Melody”, so they flipped a coin to decide the matter. Bobby Hatfield won the coin toss.

[@vibebrockdorff2384]

Bobbys sangen from the film "ghost" with woopi Goldberg, demi Moore and Patrick swayze. The baroness from denmark, with love.

[@pharamathews5152]

This is from the Andy Williams TV show. There's another video out there that has Andy Williams and both Bill Medley & Bobby Hatfield chatting & joking with Andy after they had finished a song. It gives an insight to how the Righteous Brothers got their name & that Bobby is singing this song by himself. Actually Bobby sang this song even before the Righteous Brothers got together so he was the perfect choice to record the B side of their other new song "Hung On You" they wanted to promote. A DJ flipped the record over and listened to "Unchained Melody" and the B side took off and soared again. 25 years later after the movie "Ghost" featured it in the pottery scene, they rerecorded it as they didn't own the rights to the 1st recording. Bobby sang his live version somewhat different than the record and getting over a cold & a case of nerves he still did one of the best live performances ever done on T.V.

[@dorarobertson3608]

Bobby Hatfield owned this song. Still loved. Still missed. RIP

[@Marrero79]

Speaking of Andy Williams, he has some great songs in his catalog too. I especially like “Moon River”, “Charade” and “Happy Heart”. 😊

[@sammy_the_uncool2702]

Clicked the like button before you hit play! His name is Bobby Hatfield. This was a solo performance. Bobby was a natural counter- tenor. The other "brother" was Bill Medley. He's still alive. Bobby is not. Bill is a bass- baritone. They were not related. Their voices blended perfectly together. "You're My Soul And My Heart's Inspiration" by The Righteous Brothers. Cannot go wrong with that one 👍 LOVED your reaction 💙👏👏👏👏🌹🌹🌹🌹 Thank you so much! Peace & blessings to you & yours 💕

[@FUBAR1986]

By far you’re my heart, and my soul’s inspiration my favorite song by them, and makes a grown man cry

[@ajruther67]

This song/video is only sung by Bobby Hatfield. The other guy is Bill Medley a tenor (deep voice). If you want to hear them both sing, react to You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling. Other songs by them: Soul and Inspiration and Little Latin Lupe Lu

[@Aurora-tp3dy]

Some corrections: A tenor isn't a deep voice. Bobby was a countertenor, a range higher than a tenor. Bill was a bass-baritone. Bill, not Bobby, wrote that song and used the name (Lupe) of a girl he knew. He said it really wasn't about her, but it just fit. Just an aside, high school for them was the 1950s.

[@davidcruse6589]

On the start of this song they got interviewed funny as and they tell you how they got their name after singing a guy stood up in the audience and shouted that's righteous brother and that's how they got their name it could be on another version they also explain why he sings this by himself

[@lorrigaines4902]

I love watching you and your reactions!

[@gailcalderone5229]

Actually the other brother is in the back listening...He didn't record this song with Bobby because he didn't think it would be a hit....We know they weren't blood brothers but brother's just the same

[@leighafrench]

Bobby said he’d be down there in the mauve suit and pinky ring… 🤩

[@Marrero79]

It’s a joy to watch you react to this great music. So much so that I had to subscribe to your channel. 💕💜💕💜💕💜

[@diperry4026]

Try “ You’re My soul and Inspiration “ by these guys. Fabulous!

[@harrietthowever3351]

Definitely watch "Summertime"! It's unreal!

[@gracemichelli.2am124]

This is Bobby Hatfield. The other brother doesn't sing on this one. Check out Summertime by him. Also You've Lost That Loving Feeling. Love you channel and reactions.🥰

[@LizONLY]

LOVE this song!!

[@amypowell6307]

The movie and song you are thinking about is stand by me.

[@GinMae]

Nah - Sceez - you were thinking of "Stand by Me" at first - this song was featured in the movie "Ghost" -- but this LIVE version is so much better -- Bobby Hatfield was incredible.. no straining, screaming... etc... (and of course no "auto-tune) - and he was supposedly nervous cuz his MOM was in the audience... lol

[@donnaewe3692]

Great reaction ❤️‍🔥

[@boxerchops]

This song is from the movie "Ghost" The movie you're talking about is Stand By Me, there's a song with the same title.

[@emiliomazzeo4286]

THOSE PEOPLE WHO SAW THAT FAMOUS FILM "GHOST" STARRING PATRICK SWAYZE AND DEMI MOORE AND WHOOPIE GOLDBERG, RECOGNISE THE MAIN THEME SONG WHICH WAS THE STUDIO VERSION OF "UNCHAINED MELODY" BY BOBBY HATFIELD OF "THE RIGHTEOUS BROS" BOBBY HATFIELD IS DOING A LIVE VERSION HERE, WHICH IN MY VIEW IS HIS BEST EVER PERFORMANCE.

[@skyt3265]

check out the studio version too for a diff sound

[@skynetterminatort100]

Ditto Sam........

[@kathleenkarsten5739]

Who doesn’t like a good love song? We need to bring them back, didn’t you think? 🥰

[@Sunny-jz3dy]

Wish we could! Sadly we lost Bobby Hatfield in 2003....RIP 🙏

[@HGWTPaladin]

Bobby Hatfield: KALAMAZOO, Mich. (AP) - Righteous Brothers singer Bobby Hatfield's death in November was caused by cocaine and not just heart failure, according to the official autopsy report. Dr. Richard Tooker, chief medical examiner for Kalamazoo County, told the Kalamazoo Gazette in Tuesday's editions that Hatfield's death was triggered by acute cocaine intoxication. Hatfield, 63, died Nov. 5 just hours before a Righteous Brothers concert. He and his partner, Bill Medley, had hits like Unchained Melody, and You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling. "This is a shock to me," Medley told The Orange County (Calif.) Register from his Newport Beach, Calif., home. "I never saw him (use cocaine). I knew absolutely nothing about it. If I had known, I would have said something to him." An initial autopsy found Hatfield had advanced coronary disease. A heart attack due to the disease was listed on Hatfield's death certificate. However, Tooker said a final cause of death was not determined until after toxicology reports were completed. The death certificate will be changed to reflect cocaine as the cause of death, he said. Tooker's office received the report of cocaine intoxication on Dec. 24, but he asked for the information to be released after the holidays out of respect to Hatfield's family. Messages left Tuesday with Tooker and the William Morris Agency, which represents the Righteous Brothers, were not returned.

[@THEPATRIOT1000]

great singer. Try Celine Dion... It's all Coming Back

[@michaelruhnke6721]

Honestly...when I saw that you reacted to this song...I thought you were gonna act stupid...based on some of your other videos I've seen...but you did alright on this one... it's good to see the next generation appreciate the past... there's a lot more to learn other than music though... that's just the cherry on top! There is a better way...that was the 80s...but nothing is perfect...

[@BobGreer-s1l]
