Elvis might have sung Unchained Melody, but that song will always belong to Bobby Hatfield. You can tell that in is finale years, some of his voice has left him, but in his prime, he could not be beaten. He was the absolute best.

It is beautiful to me any time he sings it. RIP Bobby Hatfield..+ Thank you 💙

[@lynnlobliner3933]

It depends on your POV. When I was a kid I had heard it sung on the pop stations in 1955 by someone, who was either Al Hibbler or Roy Hamilton. I also remembered Ebb Tide, probably the 1954 version by Roy Hamilton. Loved them both, never heard them again until Bobby. Then along came Bobby, who sang BOTH. My, my. I was in college so impressionable end of teens but I can't say the song belongs to him. Elvis didn't have a hit I ever heard on the radio. He had his own long chain of songs that belonged to him but not Unchained Melody. At least here Bobby nailed that high note. He didn't at the R&R Hall of Fame (Lovin' Feelin').

@@lynnlobliner3933 You have to remember, when they entered the hall of fame in 2003, they were both 62 years of age. As their voices changed, they made adjustments to the way they sang to fit the song. Bill to this day has a crazy good voice and he will be 81

This Black woman is in love with these guys! I wasn’t quite the teenager when their music was first broadcasted over the radio. I heard it, but at that time, I wouldn’t have understood the love and passion they had in their music; but I’m glad I’m old enough now to appreciate their amazing voices and their soulful sound. I can understand why they were so popular, and I’m sure they made a lot of women swoon and melt whenever they sang those beautiful, heartfelt, and spiritual songs, and they’re still touching so many women’s hearts and spirits today...breathtaking! I love these guys; how can any woman not fall in love with them, and they’re so handsome? Thank God for blessing these guys with such passionate and soulful voices to be able to give a taste of what true love feels like in one’s spirit through song. No one can sing with such passion and soul without it being in their spirit. My hats off to Bill and Bobby for gracing us with their timeless music and sound. I will always listen to it and let it melt my heart every time I hear their music. I know Bobby is no longer with us; and I pray that he’d lived his life of joy, happiness, and plenty of love given and received, and may his soul be at peace with the Lord. Bill still looks and sounds good. I am in awe with him and with that seductive, sexy, and sensational baritone voice, wow, I just love it! ❤️ Thank you for pouring out such passion and soul from your heart to so many women who didn’t have true love in their lives and were able to find it through the passionate and soulful sound of your voice in song; ump, ump, ump, you just don’t know what you do to the imagination of a woman when they hear you sing. I love these guys, as I stated earlier, and their music will never be forgotten...timeless!

Bobby, like all of us, had sorrows and tragedies in his life, but, he also had great love and joy. He and Linda were devoted to each other. Sadly, she passed away a few years after him. She had lupus and he took great care of her. For many years, he sponsored an annual golf tournament and Righteous Brothers concert to raise money for Lupus R&D. According to his children, he was a wonderful father that they still love and miss. Not a bad legacy.

But we’ll all see him in concert again someday, because I’m sure he’s going to heaven. 💗

@phyllisrogers, he made Bobby sound like a child who he had to take care of all the time. He said he was always concerned about what might come out of Bobby’s mouth so he was always on edge. That Bobby didn’t take their recording seriously, he would show up at recording sessions late with a case of beer. When Bills wife was killed, he said after telling Bobby that he was taking some time off to take care of his son, Bobby got angry and said Bill was deserting him. I just can’t see Bobby saying something like that because he had kids of his own. Bill also said that when he decided to reform the RB and went looking for Bobby, he found him in an small apartment that he was about to be evicted from and Bill got him a place to live and gave him $35,000 for a “ much needed face lift.” I read recently that Bill is backpedaling on some of the things written in the book about Bobby. The only nice thing he said about Bobby was in the last sentence in the chapter on Bobby’s death, he said “there will never be another Bobby Hatfield.” P.S. My copy of Bills book was used in my cats litter box which is where it belonged.

This interview from 1962/63, sadly is very shortly before boby's death...... .

Did you mean 2003?, which is when this interview was, shortly before Bobby Hatfield left his life.

[@marymichael1211]

He did have a 42 year career in the Righteous Brothers . And finally being inducted into The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame earlier that year and this interview with the performance bring some gladness with the sadness. Of course he doesn't sound musically as he did when he was 25 on The Andy Williams Show, but he exudes his heart 💜 and soul 🌀 as passionately and beautifully.

Was this the concert right before Bobby passed or the year before.

[@Aurora-tp3dy]

This was at most a month before Bobby passed away.
