Righteous Brothers - Unchained Melody [Live - Best Quality] (1965) Reaction

[@jenniferchin429]

I was just 9 yrs old when this song came out, and I think it's my very favorite live performance. Bobby Hatfield owns this song still. Everyone else who has covered it - including Elvis - has been a disappointment to me. It kind of figures that you remember the song and the voice, but not the movie it played on. It was Ghost with Patrick Swayze. Oh, and by the way, I loved your reaction 🙂

[@OffTapLife]

Hey Jennifer!! Yep def love this version great song indeed!! Ghost yep that's the movies name freakin iconic for sure!! Glad you enjoyed thanks for chiming in!! Much love!! 😊❤️

[@doloresschultz8393]

in my opinion, Bobby owned ALL the songs though Bill had a good voice. Hard to stand out when you sing with a phenomenal voice. Bobby was a once in a life time. listen to his "summertime" introduced by his partner if you need proof.

[@Peggyanns]

I was 9 yrs old also. I believe it is one of the greatest. You are correct, there was never anything a paret would not want their children to be exposed to.

[@shellyjackson3887]

So, this song came out the year I was born! My husband and I shared our first dance to this song in 1989! We weren't married yet and, on the way to the event, we got into a huge fight. I thought we were over. However, once this song came on, I asked him to dance with me (my husband doesn't like to dance); we fell in love all over again! We recently celebrated our 30th anniversary of being together, in Hawaii. I played this song and we danced together. I am so blessed to have this man in my life! Great reaction to a beautiful song that has so much meaning to us!

[@PECOSO0]

That's awesome, thanks for sharing sweetie.

[@wilfbentley6738]

This song came out first in the 1930s for a movie set in a prison. The prisoner is trying to decide whether to escape to reunite with his lover, or serve out his time.

[@doloresschultz8393]

@@wilfbentley6738 This song, this live version, belongs to Bobby. Thanks for aditional inf.

[@lisat9322]

This was LIVE in front of an audience in 1965. No auto-tune...just pure talent. His parents are in the audience and he's nervous. RIP Bobby Hatfield.

[@daveofarrell7795]

This is his song! He absolutely owns it!

[@nicolassoto1511]

Dave O'Farrell, Bobby Hatfield was the fourth person to sing Unchained Melody. The version with the pink suit and red necktie was his live version on Andy Williams show. The first person that sang it was in prison. IT sounded a little different. Bobby Hatfield sang it better than anyone else. Elvis sang it later. It was good, but no comparison to Bobby Hatfield.

[@lasuna7792]

I love The Righteous Brothers. I always loved how Bobby Hatfield could sing such high notes and Bill Medley could sing such low notes. Together they sounded amazing. Bill isn't on this song, obviously; but songs like You've Lost That Loving Feeling, Soul and Inspiration, You'll Never Walk Alone and others show how incredible both their voices are/were. Beautiful song. Bobby Hatfield died November 5, 2003, he was 63 years old. Another great loss to the music world. Thank you Lee and Faith.💜💚💝💖🌞🌞

[@amberpippin7538]

This is the amazing Bobby Hatfield of the Righteous Brothers. He was wonderful! And you probably remember his version of this song playing in "Ghost". :-)

[@artbagley1406]

Believe the "Ghost" version is out of the studio (from an album); this is a live TV audience performance. And, yes, this is the best rendition, for sure. Why not do the research for background material AFTER you get your reactions out and us through the performance? Love your enthusiasm! Enjoy the performance, absorb the lyrics' message, marvel at his talent. No not original; that's a 1955 prison movie performance. WOW! After my 2nd edit, you were reading my mind, Gal. Smart move to start over for the FULL EFFECT.

[@markgale6750]

This song was written in 1955 for a movie called “Unchained”, hence the name. It’s been covered More than 670 times by various artists, but nobody sings it like Bobby. This was a live performance on the Andy Williams Show in 1965. He was extremely nervous because his mother was in the audience. The smile and bite of his bottom lip at the end tells you he knows he absolutely nailed it.

[@shrimpboutique3584]

Damn girl you throw a nice ball. Great song, great performance. Legendary. You crack me up too, good reaction

[@j20tower]

The quintessential love song. Covered by over 600 artists but NO ONE can do it like Bobby Hatfield who sadly left up in 2003. Him along with Bill Medley made the Righteous Brothers the greatest duo of all time. If you want to hear more of them try the song that was the most played song of the 20th Century and that is You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling, Soul and Inspiration, Rock and Roll Heaven, Ebb Tide and that’s with Bobby on the solo again. The music today can’t compare to this music. How many songs of today will you remember in 55 years from now. Well thanks for playing that beautiful masterpiece.

[@imweakfordeaky]

Ahhhhh, I missed this premiere... I *love* Bobby Hatfield’s performance here. An amazing, silken, gorgeous voice!

[@sassyt1545]

This live version is actually better than the record they cut. Bobby was only 25 in this performance. He was such a talent. RIP ♥️

[@lesliegeddes7896]

Any version sung by the incomparable Bobby Hatfield is magical for me. He pours his heart and soul into every note.

The Ladies Swoon when Bobby Hatfield Sings Unchained Melody

[@joselopezmoya9786]

They were not a group, they were just two great and outstanding performers who sang with raw GOD given talent, heart, soul, and with no effort.

[@sheilacooke1543]

This song was composed for the movie “Unchained” in 1955. Todd Duncan sang it as soundtrack for that movie. Al Hibbler and Roy Hamilton each recorded it in 1955. Bobby Hatfield covered this song as a solo piece on the Andy Williams Show in 1965.

[@rogerswilliams3391]

Bobby was 25 years old when he sang this great song in 1965 this was so special time for Bobby his parents was sitting in the audience and they never heard Bobby sing professional he. Made every one proud

[@americanmutt9089]

My Mother spoon fed me the Righteous Brothers. I remember her putting this on the record player after putting us kids to bed. We'd fall asleep to a lot of influential music.

[@johnrooney1033]

They got the name The Righteous Brothers when they were playing a club near El Toro Marine Base in California. An African-American Marine would yell, "That was righteous, brothers!" after they would finish a song. After the show he walked up to them and said, "Hey righteous brothers! How you doin'?" So the name was born.

[@doriscooper3150]

Now you can understand why so many of us from an older generation love Dimash, we remember good music and handsome well dressed men...you kids have missed so much......

[@russ4338]

This was the first time he sang it live, with his mother in the audience, first time she heard the song.

[@graemekelly1572]

🎶🎵 THEY ROCK beautiful music

[@imweakfordeaky]

The other “brother” is Bill Medley... he still perform too ! (Unfortunately, Bobby died in 2003)... Listen to more Righteous Brothers as suggested by other commenters, but you might already know Bill Medley from “I’ve Had The Time Of My Life” from the Dirty Dancing soundtrack.

[@vlmoore333]

That is a beautiful song. None others compare.

[@jeffyoungblood4978]

That's how they got their name. Playing an all black club. They got the gig sight unseen by sending in a demo tape. While performing someone in the crowd shouted "that's righteous, brothers" and the name stuck.

[@tanaforet8684]

Hey Faith, it was in the movie Ghost with Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore and Whoopi Goldberg. It is such a beautiful, classic song. The Righteous brothers had many other hits as well...You’ve Lost that Lovin Feeling....Soul and Inspiration....Ebb Tide. The lead singer had such an incredible voice and a lot of their music was played in romance movies. Glad you enjoyed this one♥️

[@hotspace1145]

I love Ghost one of my favourite films love Patrick Swayze and Whoopi Goldberg

The innuendos of the 60's were much more powerful emotionally than the overt ......stuff.

[@ronstopfer2315]

Bill Medley was the second half of their duo. Bobby Hatfield sang Unchained Melody by himself. They were blue-eyed soul singers from Southern California. When a black DJ in Chicago played their records he had no idea they were white. He’d exclaim “That’s Righteous, Brother!” After their records played. Hence, the name stuck. But it was awhile before people found out they were white, and some held it against them for awhile, but their songs won the people over.

[@beegee1960]

Bobby Hatfield. Great voice and fabulous good looks.

[@johnsokolowski4433]

The Name of the movie this song really got noticed in was Ghost In the potters wheel scene with Moore throwing clay and Patrick Swazy behind her.

[@michaeldavis4746]

Unchained Melody was sung in the movie GHOST

[@pikeevans8559]

This is a 1955 song with music by Alex North and lyrics by Hy Zaret. North wrote the music as a theme for the little-known prison film Unchained (January 1955)[1], hence the song title. Todd Duncan sang the vocals for the film soundtrack.[2] It has since become a standard and one of the most recorded songs of the 20th century, most notably by the Righteous Brothers.[3] According to the song's publishing administrator, over 1,500 recordings of "Unchained Melody" have been made by more than 670 artists, in multiple languages.[4] In 1955, three versions of the song (by Les Baxter, Al Hibbler, and Roy Hamilton) charted in the Billboard Top 10 in the United States,[5] and four versions (by Al Hibbler, Les Baxter, Jimmy Young, and Liberace) appeared in the Top 20 in the United Kingdom simultaneously, an unbeaten record for any song.[6][7] The song continued to chart in the 21st century, and it was the only song to reach number one with four different recordings in the UK until it was joined by Band Aid 30's "Do They Know It's Christmas?" in 2014.[8][9]

[@opethdan2408]

Yeah it was from a key part on the movie, Ghost, when the couple was molding clay together.

[@oldschool72]

I sat in the living room with my folks and watched this live on the Andy Williams show. I was 16 at the time and had all their songs on 45's, still have them. 50's and 60's were 2 eras that produced the best singers and songs to date. I am so thankful that you young folks are discovering the greatest songs ever recorded so they will not be lost in generations to come.

[@davidjones8164]

Theme song from a movie titled Unchained, a prison movie in 1955. It was used in the movie Ghost. It has been covered by more than 600 artist. It is not the original. Bobby Hatfield recorded it in 1965. He now owned it!!

[@elainepearson4817]

The Late Bobby Hatfield will always own this song, I dont think any former &/or current pop and an opera singer (even though it was sung by Elvis, and many others and the opera singer in the original film) even he couldn't match Bobby Hatfield's voice which has power but it could not match Bobby's lightness and power of his voice (not sure but I believe it is 3 octaves). This song requires a powerful BUT sweetness and lightness which honestly I havent heard other singers produce especially at the end of this song on this LIVE T.V. production which is not on the studio version - mores the pity. 🇦🇺🇦🇺👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@beegee1960]

The version you heard in the movies was his studio version. It was a little different but still beautiful. This was a live TV appearance. Bobby was a little nervous because his parents were in the audience it was the first time they had seen him in a concert setting. But he nailed it. Notice the littl lip bite at the end. Endearing..

[@pjfsr7024]

The song originally came out in 1954-1955; in 1955 there were 4 versions, by 4 singers. When Bobby Hatfield ( Righteous Brothers ) did this song it became his. This live version is what all others are measured against, and this performance Bobby's mother was in the audience listening and the man BROUGHT IT HOME.!

[@redpammy]

Yes, it was a kinder, gentler time. There were the "unwholesome" people or things, but it was frowned on then. I guess somewhere we decided that wasn't "cool" so we became rougher and certainly less wholesome until it lead us to now ... A shame, I think.

[@Mr54nomore]

Unchained Melody was written for the movie 'Unchained' (1955). The movie is based on a book titled 'Prisoners Are People' by Kenyon J. Scudder. The movie takes place in a medium security prison in Chino California where the prisoners are not chained, and the guards are unarmed. Hence the movies name 'Unchained' and the title song and soundtrack 'Unchained Melody.' The song was composed by Alex North (1910-1991) and the lyrics by Hy Zaret (1907-2007). The song was first sung by African American Opera Singer, Broadway and Film Actor, and Howard University professor Todd Duncan for the 1955 prison film. He also acted in the movie, and sings the signature song of the movie 'Unchained Melody.' Since 1955 this beloved ballad has been sung by every major recording artist in the world. Making it one of the most recorded songs in the history of music. In 1965 on the Andy Willi8ams show. Bobby Hatfield of the 'Righteous Brothers' gave one of the greatest live television performances in the history of television. His version has since then become the quintessential version of them all. It is the version every recording artist has used, and uses today. In 1991 the move 'Ghost' starring Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore, and Whoopie Go0ldberg who won an Oscar for her performance. Brought to a new audience the beloved song everyone has been reacting too lately. It was the Bobby Hatfield version they used for the blockbuster movie. The rest as they say is history.

Two people u need to hear. A friend of mine, Tobey Kai singing Commandeer. Shes amazing and wrote the song herself. Morissette Amon singing Never Enough, Rise Up, or Akin ka na lang. Some call her the Mariah Carey of the Philippines. Her vocals are freaking amazing! Rise Up has been taken down several times bcuz it gets more views and likes than the original. U will fall in love with her vocals. I guarantee it.

[@Sunny-jz3dy]

They often did solos...together they are phenomal as well! Their voices compliment each other so well!

This group is one of my favorites from the past. Unchained Melody is really emotional.

[@oldschoolpotter7232]

This is not the original version, but it is the definitive version. It was re-expose to the world in the movie Ghost. I'm just very happy that this video of Bobby doing this live exists to preserve his singing ability.

[@roywaters3235]

It’s not so much that HE sings this song, it’s more that NO other mortal COULD sing this song😎

[@deatheater2936]

You should listen to. “You’ve lost that loven feeling “ by the Righteous Brothers

[@lauriemccomas1578]

This is not the original version. It was written for the movie "Unchained" in 1954 or 5. It's been recorded hundreds of times. Bobby Hatfield owns this song. He sang this in 1965. When the movie "Ghost" came out years later he re-recorded it & the song again went to #1. The only song to have done this. Bobby Hatfield & Bill Medley (The Righteous Brothers) have wonderful songs out. They are referred to as "blue-eyed soul" singers. Bobby is 25 in this live performance on the Andy Williams Show. He passed in 2003. Bill is 81 and still sings. ☑️ out "Soul & Inspiration" and "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling." 🎧 You'll be re- amazed. 🤗

[@ProdigyBowlersTour]

This is not the original version of the song. There were FOUR different versions of Unchained Melody on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1955, ten years before Bobby Hatfield recorded this cover. It was originally written for a movie called Unchained. But the biggest hit version of the song of the four that charted in 1955 was probably the one by Al Hibbler, which is nowhere near as good as the one by the Righteous Brothers. Bobby Hatfield, who solo'd on this song, was one half of the Righteous Brothers. The other half was (and is) Bill Medley, who still performs in Las Vegas today, but with a new Righteous Brothers partner since Bobby Hatfield, sadly, passed away in the early 2000s. At each show, Bill Medly pays tribute to Bobby Hatfield. As high pitched as Bobby Hatfield's voice was, Bill Medley's was (and is) just as low. Check 'em out. There's a reason why some of the brothas who heard them perform said they sounded "righteous," which is where the name came from. And it gave birth to the term "blue-eyed soul." "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" was their first giant hit, which turned out to be the most played single on American radio in the 20th century. Another awesome hit was "(You're My) Soul and Inspiration." Another of my favorites (that nobody has done a reaction video to) is "Just Once In My Life." Bobby Hatfield did another solo titled "Ebb Tide," which was just as awesome as Unchained Melody. The duo sort of disappeared off the radar after about '66, but then re-appeared with a big hit in the mid '70s called "Rock and Roll Heaven," a tribute to so many of the rock 'n rollers who died prematurely at the peak of their careers.

[@susanstein6604]

This live version is so much better than th record. The Righteous Brothers are a duo, but Bobby Hatfield recorded this song separately for a movie called Unchained Melody, which was a total flop, but the song was a hit & still works today.

[@pacjac1102]

Appreciate your reaction to a great song! Welcome to my growing up [60's & 70's] when Righteous Brothers were on top, Elvis was still King and Motown dominated! Thank you for bringing back many good memories... †

[@sandrasandra4253]

Yes! it was more wholesome, I got married in 1965 when we heard the Righteous Brothers on the radio we thought they were black they were huge absolutely huge! and the music was about" love "pure and simple it was a nice time.I wish the kids of today could experience just a little of what I had, and you know what they do too,they have told me so.We also had the Platters, The Temptations, Sam Cooke, Roy Orbison,etc.

[@maryanngarrimone1153]

You need to listen to You're my soul and Inspiration! Another great song!

[@nancyberry1039]

The Righteous Brothers were a duo, but occasionally they would sing solo. They were prime examples of what we call Blue Eyed Soul. Bill Medley brings the deeper baritone sound while Bobby Hatfield's higher voice perfectly compliments Bill's. "You've lost that loving feeling" is a great example of their voices blended together. It holds the title of the most requested song of the 20th century. I was born two years after this performance, but I always heard it being played at home & on the radio. It's been one of my all time favorite songs since I was a young kid. It is considered to be one of the greatest love songs ever composed. It has been covered many times over by many great artists but Bobby Hatfield's version is probably the most well known & beloved the world over. It was used as the main love theme for the movie GHOST starring Demi Moore, Patrick Swayze, & Whoopi Goldberg (she won the Academy Award for best supporting actress that year). This was definitely Bobby's song as no other can match his performance - so silky smooth & melodic, such a one of a kind ethereal voice that can make anyone swoon - LOL. Keep in mind also that he did this in front of a live audience, on live nationwide TV back in 1965, years before any computer aided autotune or post production editing. *side note - speaking of vocal talent... Please check out Sir Tom Jones (aka The Voice). He was dubbed with that moniker decades before the competition-reality TV show of the same name. Tom is held in such high regard not only by fans, but also his peers in the music industry. Some of Tom's big hits that other KZbinrs are reacting to lately are: Delilah, I'll never fall in love again, Green green grass of home, It's not unusual, She's a lady... oh, and he did a cover of KISS (by Prince) with the band, Art of Noise, back in 1988. He's still singing strong & touring at 80 years old (his b-day is tomorrow June 7th).

[@bekydelacaridadtoledogutie1839]

It is the original version but Bobby Hatfield (of the Righteous Brothers) made it his own song NO ONE EVER have sung this song better. Is not even the one un the movie "Ghost" he sang this live, I think in the Andy Williams show, and he sang the one which later was used in the movie a little different but no less beautiful and delighful. Give a try to other songs of the two "brothers", all their discography was great. This version of Unchained Melody is unbeatable. Blue eyed Soul sweet Bobby, Rest In Peace.

[@AmatureAstronomer]

When I was in high school back in the early 60s, we once had a girl who started putting on weight, like a pot belly. Then, she disappeared and 5 months later showed up again with a brand new baby brother. So, things did sometimes happen, even then.

[@leekillough2070]

Faith, you brought some real joy to me with this! Thank you!

[@mrk8050]

I sang this to my wife at our wedding in 1983. She, however she said I murdered it. I'm guessing it's not a song for a baritone, she told me I was of better sticking to my drumming. I thought it was an appropriate song as I was in the Royal Marine Commandos, I had returned from the war for the Falkland Islands when I proposed, and now was shipping out to Sierra Leone two days later, so much for my attempt at being romantic. On the upside she liked me in my Dress Uniform, and having my comrades forming the sword tunnel helped. I must have done something write because we're still together. With 4 children and 7 grandchildren, we got busy on baby's when I was home. I served my Queen and Country for 34 years as a Royal Marine Commandos and Specialist Forces, and then 2 years in hospital, and she stuck by me even though I'm wheelchair bound now. We do actually have a song by Queen called "Your Me Best Friend", a very apt song as she has been my best friend since we were 16.

[@carytakagawa2760]

Please react to You've Lost That Loving Feeling; it features both "brothers" and was in the movie Top Gun. It was also the most played song on American radio and television in the 20th century with over 8 million air-plays by 1999 - more than any Motown hit, more than any song by the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Elvis, etc. Also check out (You're My) Soul and Inspiration, which spent 3 straight weeks at #1 in 1966.

[@wilfbentley6738]

Another great song from the righteous Brothers is "I Just Want To Make Love To You". It is more bluesy than the rest.

It is not the original version on the song. This video was made in 1965 on the Andy Williams Show. It was originally the theme song for the movie "Unchained" from 1955. I saw the movie! A version on the song was sung in the movie. It was a prison movie and the prisoner was wrestling with whether to escape or serve his time. It has been covered by more than 720. This version by Bobby Hatfield was a background song in the movie Ghost. Bobby Hatfield owned this song.

BOBBY SUNG THIS SONG SOFTLY, SWEETLY, SMOOTHLY, SENSUALLY AND WITH SOUL GRIPPING PASSION THAT WAS SO PURE, ELEGANT, CLEAN AND POWERFUL.

This song is from the 1955 movie "Unchained Melody". It's about a black man in prison. The only reason his soul is not crushed is the memory of love. The melody is by Alex North the dean of Hollywood film composer "Cleopatra" "Streetcar named Desire".Also sung by Elvis. You can compare.

[@billparthum206]

Love was many times sung with God, prayer or soul somewhere in the song. Definitely no profanity. Romantic. 🥰

[@Center1240]

You probably remember this song from the movie "Ghost' but the original really was from the movie 'Unchained,' 1955, hence "Unchained Melody." The Righteous Bros, (in this case, Bobby Hatfield,) did a cover version in the mid-sixties. It became more popular than the earlier versions. 'You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling' was the Righteous Bros. best song, react to that too.

I enjoyed your reactions even before you turned it back to the beginning and listening to your thoughts was interesting,its a great song with a great singer...being from the 50's myself there was an innocense at least in middle America(I'm Canadian) we didn't have the World Wide Net which has exposed people to a broad spectrum of the world,where all we had was tv/radio and there was a certain amount of censorship to keep the news clean,we associated with our neighbors because they lived there for life,we sat on our front porches,anyhow try some Shirley Bassey anything live Goldfinger,Diamonds Are Forever,more Righteous Brothers.

[@brucemccarthy6237]

This was a cover as well as the many other artist that did the song. It was a song in a 1955 movie titled Unchained Melody. Done many time over the years, but this artist is attributed to have owned the song . The movie you might have heard it in is " Ghost " with Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze?

[@jokuz9133]

Hard to believe from watching this that Bobby threw up before his performances from stage fright. Sadly Bobby died from cocaine abuse but he always managed to pull himself together to perform for us

[@nrick66]

Many people have done this song, Bobby Hatfield is the gold standard of this song. Both Righteous Brothers have done solos and supposedly Bobby won a coin toss to sing this song. This is only a part of the video, there's more and you'll see both Righteous Brothers in the full version.

[@susanstein6604]

Now this song was was a special live song sung bt Bobby Hatfield live in I think Atlanta, Georgia. no special effects or anything just him singing live. You should also listen to the studio version / very nice

[@michaeldbhawker3556]

not original was written in 1935. been covered by everyone and butchered by everyone but Bobby. Best live cover in music history.

[@beegee1960]

Yes, this is the version used in Ghost and other movies.

[@ytubepuppy]

No, this is NOT the version from Ghost. Listen to the ending of both versions and you'll see the difference.

There was plenty of meanness and nastiness in the 1950s and 1960s. In those days, people kept it well-hidden, behind closed doors, and was not talked about in the general public. In the 1950s and 1960s, the television networks were forced by the sponsors to limit the kind of issues and subjects that were addressed in their shows. Rod Serling (creator of the CBS television series, "The Twilight Zone" during that time period) was the rare individual to take on sensitive subjects like nuclear war and the Vietnam War, before it officially even started during the show's final season in 1964. People were reluctant to take stands on issues, for fear of retribution by people in positions of power (losing one's job, being framed for a crime, convicted, and imprisoned, or being declared insane, and placed into a mental institution for one's political, social and sexual orientation beliefs).
