[@georgegarcia2632]

Should've lived this era. The music always got into ones bones.I'm 73❤

[@KingGreatnessKG]

🙏🏽 ❤️

[@JNeil-yarbrough]

Yes, we felt it in our bones, heart, and soul. We all thought they were Black when we listened on radio. When we finally saw them on TV we didn't care because only in this area is there so much hate and racism. On a side note it was all black and white television there wasn't color.

[@j20tower]

The most played song of the 20th Century. The hype is well deserved. Almost 60 years later and still great.

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Definitely lives up to it! Thanks for your support j!

[@seanmillette4323]

Most played song of the 20th century even after coming out 65% of the way through it.

[@melissagerber7231]

Mind boggling,isn't it?​@@seanmillette4323

[@mja91352]

Seriously? Played more than "The Star-Spangled Banner"? More than "White Christmas"? Obviously brainless

[@carolkinney1327]

I have been listening to the Righteous Brothers since I was a tween. I'm currently 68, and I have NEVER gotten tired of hearing and experiencing their songs.

[@loriezuberka4569]

I just turned 68 also but when I listen to this song I'm a teenager again and so many memories fill my heart and mind

[@KingGreatnessKG]

🙏🏽 ❤️

[@faydriahenderson9392]

Wow! Same here.👍

[@williamcabell142]

There will never be another two decades like the 60’s & 70’s! Period! Ten stars😂 The original blue eyed soul! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😎

[@crmlcd]

Black and white wasn’t for aesthetics, it is before color TV. This was a live performance on TV in front of an audience.

[@MarieMooney-s4b]

Breaking women’s hearts 50 yrs later and will continue to do so ❤❤❤

[@helenwilkinson9926]

Blue eyed soul like never before…❤❤…grew up loving this song..still love it at 65 years young 😊

[@daveloboda1769]

Absolutely no question that it is more than worth the hype, beautiful song brilliantly sung.

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Definitely Dave!

[@jeannemyatt3574]

In the 60's we didn't know what they looked like. We used mostly radio and records. We loved to slow dance and make out to the Righteous Brothers. They were magic. Ebb Tide, Soul and Inspiration, play em.

[@mcshawn56]

No auto-tune back in the day! Just beautiful and natural voices!

[@KingGreatnessKG]

No enhancement needed 👌🏽 Thanks for your support Shawn!

[@ginapine5922]

Thanks for sharing. This came out in 1964 --- I was 15 years old ... and I fell in love with them. And no auto-tune in those days or extras to make you sound great. Just plain God-given Talent. :)

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@quentinmichel7581]

Besides these young 24 year old men at the time being consummate professionals and performers many people overlook the precision timing of these guys they don't miss a beat and they don't miss a note absolutely spot-on laser perfection.

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Definitely skilled!

[@donrudd1358]

Saw the brothers in Reno years ago, them boys could flat ass sing. No loss in sound being live. Just God given tallent.

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Lucky you got to experience their greatness live! Thanks for your support Don!

[@suzannesimmons484]

Arguably the best duo of all time. Pure talent, perfect pitch.

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Amazing group! Thanks for your support Suzanne!

[@peterang6912]

Well, the real brothers Everly had some hits with their close harmony..

[@Coolrockndad]

And NO auto-tune.

[@47tooter]

What about " Simon and Garfunkel ?

[@stephensgarlato2323]

I’m 74 now, but I saw this live on tv…maybe late January or February 1965, when I was 16. I enjoy your reactions👍👍👍

Pure talent .No autotune no Bull Shit !!!!

[@lindaszatkowski321]

The best song ever

[@Stacey19962]

Wouldnt it be amazing if we could all feel like this about each other no color judgement.❤

[@pirobot668beta]

1964...an all black Choir on live TV...history was being made that day. It doesn't seem like that much today, but I remember how upset some of the adults were!

[@garyhorton9827]

not exactly all black. A certain young girl in the back row is Cher !

[@artartful854]

The Blue eyed soul with Bill Medley the baritone of soul.

[@greasyfoil6765]

1st movie I remember seeing in the theater had this song in it. After hearing it a few thousand times I still think of a Tomcat buzzing the tower.

[@crsounddoctor4937]

Hey King of The Mix, The Righteous Brothers not only earned their name, they also live up to it, as you will never go wrong with them because these "Blue-Eyed-Soul" singing brothers sound is truly "Righteous" and they never miss!!!

[@KingGreatnessKG]

I’m finding that out now! Thanks for your support CR!

[@crsounddoctor4937]

[@KingGreatnessKG]

🙏🏽

[@virginiawilson2213]

Both Bobby Hatfield and Bill Medley grew up, listening to rhythm and blues of the 50s and imitated much of what they had heard from the black soul groups.

[@kimkelly5512]

I saw them in the 70's when I was a teenager, Bill and Bobby were the best! Blue eyed soul, I am glad that race doesn't matter to you when it comes to music. Music has no color barriers, when it's great it's great no matter what racial background!

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Yes I love it all! Thanks for your support Kim!

[@kellygears8514]

They were called Blue-eyed Soul because of their voices! They had all of the women in love with them. They could seduce girls with their singing!

[@KingGreatnessKG]

I can tell they definitely had the ladies lol. Thanks for your support Kelly!

[@melissagerber7231]

Have you seen the women reacting to this song? The magic still works!

[@karenstrong8887]

You were not the only one to hear this on radio and think they were another colour. I requested this song every week at our local dance. Our band did a really good job of sounding like this.

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Thanks Karen

[@StevenW1958]

The female singing group, The Blossoms, which included Darlene Love, and a young Cher sang backup vocals on this great, great song.

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Great to know Stev! Thanks for your support!

@@KingGreatnessKG my pleasure 😇. But you’re the King who is playing all these great songs of my youth.

[@KingGreatnessKG]

You were lucky to grow up in this era! I am glad all of this music is still alive!

[@justafanmiller7486]

Before they became famous after watching them perform someone from the audience yelled out their praise by saying "that was righteous brother! Thus the duo took on the name Righteous Brothers. You won't be disappointed if you check out "(You're My) Soul & Inspiration" .

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Thanks I’ll check it out!

[@mikegoodwin8983]

The first concert I ever attended was the Righteous Brothers. They were a great live show.

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Glad you got to experience that! Thanks for your support Mike!

[@righteousbyfaithinChrist]

Ive been loving the reactions of this generation to the genius of these two and their producer... Every writer and every soul that they touched.

[@jerrykessler2478]

The way they got their name was they were touring in the south and when they finished a gig in New Orleans a guy stood up and said, brothers, that was righteous!

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Good to know! Thanks for your support Jerry!

[@augustblew]

Bill Medley always reminded me of the statues on Easter Island 😊

[@GwenByrd-d4k]

My dear God didnt just vless black people with soulful talent. He gave all his people a certain measure of gifts.

[@SharonS-fn2ym]

Black and white was all we had in the 60’s. Any technology was in its infancy. This was a live performance on a TV variety show.

[@mja91352]

"Live"? It was lip-sync'd!

[@JohnRodriguesPhotographer]

Music is the universal language. The Righteous Brothers were masters.

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Yes music connects us all! Thanks for your support John!

[@WraythSkitzofrenik]

Ahh the look of "I'm sorry, whaaaat?" That's my favorite part of watching these reactions.

Thank you ❤️

[@sandyleewhite]

They call this Blue Eyed Soul, but White people have green & brown eyes too, so I just like to say that, a soul, has never had a color, & The Righteous Brother's were a once in a lifetime treasure, for our ears & our souls.....loved your reaction King of the Mix, and so glad to your are enjoying your musical journey 😊

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Thanks a lot Sandy!

[@hkblt3]

Now listen to Bobby Hatfield’s soul in “Summertime” and Bill Medley’s soul in “I Just Want To Make Love to You”.

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Added to the list! Thanks for your support.

[@aduncaroo]

Both perfect recommendations based on your reaction

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Thanks for your support and suggestions Duncan!

[@quentinmichel7581]

I agree with both of these suggestions. It's just unfortunate that there is no live version of "I Just Want To Make Love To You". It's a Stone Cold banger.

[@CarolynAllen-fc2vs]

Elvis loved to hear them sing this even though hr e sang it too They were a class all their own.

[@sassyjintheuk]

Stunning aren't they? What gifted guys. 😊💕

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Definitely! Thanks for your support!

[@dorothyward3234]

The Righteous Brothers have nice music from back in the day, that clean cut music that even a baby could listen to. We had pure soul music.

[@KingGreatnessKG]

What a time! Thanks for your support Dorothy!

[@stevefoulston]

Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield started out as members of The Paramours. In 1962, the two decided to leave the five-member group to form a duo. They found their name at a show with the Paramours when a fan shouted, “That was righteous, brothers!”. Peace out.

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Great fact! Thanks for your support Steve!

[@edgarsnake2857]

Lurch!?! I always, from the time I saw this when it was originally broadcast, thought Bill Medley looked like an undertaker. He's an amazing looking guy. So is Bobby Hatfield, really. I've seen this clip hundreds of times and I still click on it with real anticipation. It's an epic performance and I loved your understated reaction.

[@heatherlaforest232]

I enjoyed watching your reaction to this song. You're right. Music doesn't have a race, it's universal & for most it brings people together.

[@teresarankin7077]

The Righteous Brothers never miss together or solo🥰

That’s great chemistry! Thanks for your support Teresa!

[@kumasenlac5504]

5:14 "we had..." Perfectly pitched, perfectly matched and together to the millisecond. In the dark... Harmony doesn't get any better than that.

Fun Fact, One of the background singers in this video is Cher. We had Pure music back then

[@KingGreatnessKG]

That’s crazy! Thanks for your support!

[@ecsluder]

Both of these guys have awesome voices and they sound so great together. They got their name from the soulfulness of their sound. If you really want to hear some soul, listen to Bobby Hatfield singing "Summertime".

"Soul and Inspiration" (video ). "You'll Never Walk Alone" ( video) "Rock and Roll Heaven" ( video). "Old Time Rock and Roll" "Summertime" (video/solo by Bobby Hatfield) "Just Want To Make Love To You" ( featuring Bill Medley...from album)

The numbers are still rising til this day!

[@jimmythetout109]

well , they aren't known as " blue eyed soul " for nothing Look , they were inducted into the R and r Hall of Fame in 2004 , and this song was THE MOST played song of the 20th Century .

I love that they explained when they first started singing together they couldn’t agree on a name and at one early performance someone in the crowd yelled out, that’s righteous brother! And that’s when they decided

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Haha interesting story. Thanks Christy

[@sarita423]

TV was black & white back then. I remember when we got a color TV in the late 1960s. Magical. Oh and teenaged Cher is one of the back-up singers.

[@KingGreatnessKG]

Great moment for you to experience both eras of television! Thanks for your support Sarah!

[@quentinmichel7581]

"Black & white aesthetic"...LoL That's pretty much all we had for TV back in 1964. 😁 Around that time and through the next few years up to @ 1967 I only had one friend whose family had a color tv. And it never held the tint and saturation right...always had to be tweaked. We didn't get a color tv in my family until my Jr year of high school @ 1970.
