[@iheartscaryclowns]

My mom legally came to the U.S. when she was 14 years old in the late 1960s early 1970s. She clawed and fought to her way to get through racism, hard work, and saved up enough money to buy a house. The stories she told me about the hard life she went through made me think of the ridiculous petty things I complained about my pampered life. Through her sacrifice (in addition to my work experience), I have a roof over my head and food on the table. Respect the older generations who worked their ass off so that we could have it easy.

[@patricialabbe1416]

Very true. Black Marines from El Toro Base heard a couple of white guys were singing R&B and blues at The Black Derby and dropped by to check it out. Were impressed enough to holler "That's righteous brother" and greeted them saying "How you doin' righteous brothers" on their way into the club. Both Bill and Bobby have told that story.

This is back when the black and white communities were sharing each other's music. Think how strong the R&B influence is here, same with jazz and swing. We were sharing a music and entertainment culture then. Sadly, that is largely gone.

I promise you that this song gave new meaning to SLOW DANCING! I know that I enjoyed myself immensely dancing to this song! Thanks for bringing back some wonderful and SLOW memories☮️ P.S.: LOVE YOUR REACTION!

[@ArwynAvalon]

Great reaction! Your face when you realized they were white was priceless! The Righteous Brothers hands down show us soul has no color.

💗💗💗 Beautiful song ! So glad you did this for Mary. *Always* get goosebumps right away when this begins, because I know what is coming up ! Whew !!!

[@Eurynomea]

My brother & sisters were 15-14 years older than me which meant I was flooded with this kind of awesome music. Grateful I grew up around amazing music (I was 2 when this was recorded).

Soul has no color and i love it!!

Agreed 💯 👍

I have a playlist called they had soul - full of white people !

[@TheFatboonedaddy]

@@matthewkresse5697 Was that comment trying to say that white people can sing better than black people or that white people can sing better than people think they can sing ? I just want to know before I make a comment about what you just said . Because my personal opinion is that color has nothing to do with a persons voice and I dont want to start an argument if I misunderstood what you was trying to say .

[@garanceadrosehn9691]

It's almost overwhelming how good these two guys could sing. And this was an all-around great song for them. Great, realistic heart-felt lyrics. Great instrumental work. And they absolutely nailed the singing.

Gotta love that scene in Top Gun! They are Righteous brothers for a reason! I got the 8 Track of this somewhere... "Unchained Melody" is another song they did, and launched a thousand covers.

[@MrPetrion]

good ol' 8-tracks. the player would eat them. i'd spend an hour pullin' out the tape. then i'd wind it back up with a pencil. ha!

[@SilverbladeDagger]

I had a rare 8 track recorder when I was a kid in the 80's. I would pop one of those big bad boys in and record songs off the radio. I did the same with cassettes too, but those 8 tracks were something else.

[@deannacrownover3]

@@MrPetrion Tim Robinson Talks about that...remember how it never quite sounded right after splicing it back together...it always had that wobble AND you couldn't listen to a particular song unless it was the first on a track!

[@mrbwa1]

Back when were were in college, my friends had girlfriends working at the bar on Valentines day. We did our best Top Gun impression and sang the song to them. Had the entire bar singing.

[@SilverbladeDagger]

Did that for my friend's wedding. :D

You are so much fun to watch and I can tell you appreciate the good stuff. And I’m 65 so I’ve been listening to this stuff for a long time. And I’m white by the way and loved Motown all the way!

[@terryhazelett2105]

Wasn t the music incredible when we were growing up!!! And you could hear it all on one radio station.

[@cathiehardy5819]

M.W. Poss I agree with you completely. I’m 71 and have been listening to the Righteous Brothers since I was 18. I keep telling my 18 yr old daughter that there is no way her generation will be listening to this junk that is being produced today 50 yrs from now. We were indeed lucky. We got to grow up with REAL music and singers who could actually sing. I’ll put the Righteous Brothers at the top, especially Bobby Hatfield. What a voice! I just love to listen to that man sing. RIP Bobby.

It took me a long while to notice it, but the musical instrumentation, is as perfect as the vocals. Incredible, on every point.

[@subg8858]

Phil Spector

[@flomurdock]

@@subg8858 Yes, phil Spector was awesome at the time, too. That clip is from a TV show of the era, either Shindig or Hullabaloo. It's what we had back then. But whichever it is, it is totally lip-synced. They are not singing live, they never had bands on those shows. Whoever mentioned the dancers ?) or maybe singers on the back row, that was just for the show.

[@paulanull8731]

@@flomurdock Wasn't Hullabaloo or Shindig because when they sang on those shows you could bearly hear over the screaming audience. Could go deaf in those shows. lol. This was done really well with real voices, back up singers and musicians. All spot on. The Bros didn't have a reputation for not really singing but with Phil Spector involved anything was possible because he did it all.

They were the main reason for the expression "Blue Eyed Soul"

[@1usctroj]

I think you paid them the best compliment you could have given them. I’m 70, white and we loved these guys and all the other great black blues singers and R&B. So proud of these dudes, not even southern, but Southern California, born and bred! They were lauded as “Blue Eyed Soul”. Great job, young man.

[@galacticscholarconsciousness]

BRAVO! I'm 51 and those dudes STILL blow my mind. (baby...BABY...baby....BABAY!)

The Righteous Brothers had many great hits, both as a duo and also as singles. The were called Blue Eyed Soul back then.

[@Sheffield_Steve]

Got to say, awesome look in your eyes and the expression on your face when the spotlight came up on the clip.
