The way Fay is bopping her head it looks like she's listening to another song on her headphones while Bobby's singing 😆

The Righteous Brothers are Bobby Hatfield and Bill Medley. This is Bobby Hatfield. They were singing on a military base to some African Americans & one of them stood up after they finished singing & said that was righteous brothers.And that's how they came up with the name.They have many great songs. Thanks Fay.💜

Robert Lee Hatfield (August 10, 1940 - November 5, 2003) Bobby Hatfield, who had a higher counter tenor voice to Bill Medley’s, William Thomas Medley (born September 19, 1940) baritone, sang lead on this track. It was his idea to record it, since Medley and Hatfield were each allowed to choose a song to sing as a solo vocalist on their albums. As Medley tells it, Hatfield knew the song well, and was a big fan of the Roy Hamilton and Al Hibbler versions of the song. In 2003, Hatfield died of a heart attack at age 63. *The Righteous Brothers version was a huge hit, but it was recorded with far more modest expectations. Phil Spector considered it album filler and released it as a B-side. The single had "Unchained Melody," with no producer credit on the label, as the flip to Gerry Goffin and Carole King's "Hung on You," but many DJs preferred "Unchained Melody" and played that one instead. This infuriated Spector, who subsequently left no doubt as to which side of a Philles single was the A-side. * The famous climax of this song where Bobby Hatfield sings the high "I need your love" line wasn't how the song was written. In an interview with Bill Medley, he explained that Hatfield did two takes of the song, then left. He would often reconsider his performance and come back later to change it, and that's what he did on this track, returning to ask Medley if he could make an edit. This was no easy task, since with a maximum of four tracks to work with, you had to record over part of the original take, but Medley accommodated and Hatfield delivered that soaring vocal line. Said Medley: "I punched that in and he left. He said, 'No, I can do it better.' And I said, 'No, you can't.' [Laughs] And I think it's a big part of that song." * This was released on Philles Records, Phil Spector's label. Spector, known for his "Wall Of Sound" technique, did not produce this - Bill Medley did. In a 2007 statement to the Forgotten Hits newsletter, Medley said: "You have to remember that I was producing our stuff before Phil Spector... I mean I produced 'Little Latin Lupe Lu,' 'My Babe' and all that stuff. Then when we went with Phil, Phil asked me if I would produce the albums because it was too time consuming for him to produce the entire albums. So he was going to do the singles and I would do the album. And so that's how that happened and that's how I produced 'Unchained Melody,' which Phil Spector apparently now takes credit for. He can have the credit. And I'm not a producer. I know how to produce. But it's obviously not a Spector production. 'Unchained Melody' was never intended to be the single... it was produced to be on the album. It was put on the B side of a Phil Spector single 'Hung On You' and the minute it was released 'Unchained Melody' just went through the roof."

thank you for this you are an adorable young lady. Hard to believe bobby threw up before these performances from stage fright. Bobby had a choice between singing and professional baseball. Sadly bobby died from cocaine abuse but he always pulled himself together to entertain us

He was very nervous because his parents were in the audience. His mom had never seen him perform in a setting like this. This was on the Andy Williams show, a variety show. His partner, Bill Medley was sitting with Andy and Bobby's parents.

The song was written for a 1955 B (or C!) -movie called 'Unchained' about a prison break. Think of the singer as a guy in jail wanting to get home to his woman and the words of the song make sense.

A few more songs by them, these have both of them singing "Soul and Inspiration" and "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin' " Also try more Alabama "Angels Among Us" or "Love In The First Degree"
