The one and only fabulous Bobby Hatfield. No one ever can sing this song like Bobby. He owns this song. He took a little known song and made it one of the greatest love songs for the ages. Unchanged Melody is the most covered song ever sung and this isn't his original, recorded version that we hear in the movie "Ghost". This is a 24 yr. old Bobby Hatfield, as nervous as could be, singing with a cold, with his mom in the audience seeing her son sing live on tv to and audience and a viewer ship of well over 1 million people, on one of the most popular shows on tv at the time. He changed up the song and showcased the high range of his vocals; and he did it to perfection!!

Bobby Hatfield was a countertenor, the rarest of tenor types=a male singer who can reach soprano or mezzo-soprano range. No matter who covers this song, Bobby Hatfield 'owns' it forever, in my opinion. Your face at the end said it all for me. 🤣😅🤣😅Yes, you've heard his audio release of this song.....countless times, just as, we all have. How very easy it was, to lull us back, to 'fall into' the memory of that audio release.... because Bobby sang it here, live, flawlessly.......ahhh......what a jolt back to reality, (oh yeah...he was singing live), when he added those ending, over the top, soprano & mezzo-seprano vocals, so effortlessly, reminding us how very epic & non-duplicatable his voice really is! 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍😍😍😍😍😍💃🤩🤩

Best version hands down of this classic song. Absolutely loved the Righteous Brothers. Sadly we lost Bobby Hatfield about 20 years ago. He had a beautiful one of a kind voice. This is called blue-eyed soul. These guys were the best. Bobby Hatfield with his beautiful tenor voice & Bill Medley with his deeper voice. They were magic together. And remember this is done live. No auto-tuning crap like today. And the songs had meaningful beautiful lyrics. Other songs by them are "Soul & Inspiration", "Just Once In My Life", "Ebb Tide", "Rock & Roll Heaven", "Little Latin Lupe Lu" etc. Home Free recently did a great version of this song. And Austin Brown also did a very beautiful tribute of this song a few years ago. You may want to check them out.

Thank you so much for reacting to Bobby sing this epic hit. It's his voice that you hear singing this in Ghost. Blue-eyed soul at its best. Like you stated, nothing comes close to this version. They made this one the hit that still resonates with us today. A timeless classic. What a voice he had. It was smooth as velvet. Their voices together meshed so well. "Soul and Inspiration " with their harmonies comes in 2nd only to this one. As someone mentioned, Home Free did a great cover of this. But nothing will ever compare to Bobby Hatfield's voice. I'm so glad you saw this live version. You would be surprised that a lot of reactors really thought they were brothers because of their name 😊. Much love to you and your family ❤️ 🫂.

All 3 major networks (and there were only 3) had them on and this how we got to see entertainers as they were coming up or promoting something new they were doing. That night Bobby's mother was in the audience watching him sing live on tv for the first time. He was nervous because he had a bit of a sore throat and didn't want to mess up his performance in front of his mom. As you said,it is a truly iconic song and performance.

An awesome achievement for Bobby Hatfield! And let's give a little credit to Bill Medley for producing the studio version. Phil Spector saw it become a success, so he added his name to the production credits.

The Righteous Brothers made it big about the same time I graduated from high school. In those days, all we had was an album cover to look at. Some people might be able to make it to a big city to catch one of their concerts. Then, there were those fleeting moments when we could actually see them perform live on television! So we never missed shows like The Andy Williams Show or Ed Sullivan. I never dreamed that someday, in my 70s, I would be able to actually watch them perform on something called "videos" anytime I want to AND watch young people continue to discover them. I really enjoyed watching you react to Bobby!

Hi Saeed I really liked your reaction to this song. Here’s a lit more history on it. I don’t know if anyone mentions this (after 18 hours passed from your post {over 190 comments}), I didn’t read all the comments.Their manager- or boss at that time was Phil Specter. (A person who was not always looked upon kindly) He used this song as space filler for the ‘B’ side of a ‘45’. I don’t remember what the ‘A’ side was. His main reason! Was this was a no nothing song. He “didn’t think it would be a hit”! Bill Medley ended up producing this piece for Bobby. I believe Bill was mocking Phil Specter when he used the quote.😂

I honestly think this is possibly the greatest live performance by a male singer in recording history. I don’t want to say THE best ever, to give myself wiggle room when hearing a Steve Perry or an amazing crooner like Nat King Cole, but my gosh I can’t say it’s not. It’s certainly better than the studio version and this song is hands down owned by Bobby Hatfield. What a blessing to us all. P.S. Andy Williams is a terrific crooner himself. I enjoy listening to him when I am in an easy listening mood. As for Tony Bennett? One of the greats.

Love your reaction of appreciation of this song and Bobbys voice. A 60 year old song and its still one of the most beautiful love songs ever song. I played this at my husbands funeral and it will be played at mine then, we will never be apart for eternity.

I first heard this song in the 50's by Al Hibbler. It blew me away. This is better, which I wouldn't have believed then.

Mr. Hatfield had a cold that night and still....stunning. One of my husband's favorite songs when it first came out. Still is, almost sixty years later.

Bill was joking... this was Bobby's solo on their album...Bill produced the album and played piano on the Studio version. It was never intended as a single release. Phil Specter chose to put it on the B side of the intended hit (Hung on You) and the rest is history.... This song touches everyone because the Righteous Brothers were 'soul singers'. They felt the music and could make the audience feel it too. When this song out from Bobby the Viet Nam War was raging and it was taken on by those men and women separated by so much....he dedicated it to them. (Bobby had already done his service.)

Yes, Bill played piano on the studio version but at the time neither had any idea it would be such a huge hit. When it was, Bill made certain that for every subsequent performance there would be a pro accomplished piano player to backup Bobby on the song. Bill didn't think his piano playing talent did a hit of this magnitude justice. Both of these guys were really very down to earth good people.

The fact that this song was recorded live. And it is still by far the best version of the song ever done. Says all you need to know about the talent of Bobby and righteous brothers. Oh and he was sick while singing this song also. Remarkable. Legend is right!
