Speak for yourself. I'm a child of the 60's but never thought that or any other decade had a monopoly on good music. Yours and most other people's problem is that they stop listening to new stuff in their thirties and live in a state of arrested taste development, thinking that the music of their youth was the best.

Do you yell, "Get off my lawn!" at the neighborhood kids, too? Today's music is REAL, it's just not OURS. I wish I could play some of the stuff my kids listen to for you. I don't like a lot of it, but it's composed according to strong music theory and well played. Just because you and/or I don't like it doesn't mean it isn't real or good. I remember having the same conversation as a teen with my daddy and granddaddy when they wanted to compare Jimi Hendrix or Mick Jagger to Artie Shaw or Tony Bennett. I'm happy these younger folks are exploring older genres, but nothing will cut off the interest and conversation faster than being condescending.

No, you're right...she's back there to the left, reportedly just over Bobby's head. She was/is kind of tall, so some of the singers are on a riser and she and a few others are on the floor, not sure why they staged/blocked it out it this way for tv but I will assume aesthetics, height whatever. EDIT: I just went to look up some information. If you are interested there is a site called song facts and they discuss the richness of this production, you know the Phil Spector "Wall of Sound" phenomena. They worked their asses off getting this song down in the studio, the brothers and Spector and it sure paid off in every conceivable way. I mean these guys could sing their asses off just in front of mic, as the youtuber is saying, they didnt need the fancy shit....BUT Spector was pretty fancy in his production techniques and innovations (slight echo, vocalists wearing headphones/monitors to get them out of their comfort zone and meld with the other musicians, etc) I don't want to write a book here, you can read the fascinating stuff yourself if you care to and I'll just add that Cher is most prominent in the end chorus of the popular recording of this song which is the traditional ABABCB format verse, chorus, verse, chorus, bridge (Spector came up with that call and response idea, so he must get some props!!! a friggin maniac apparently but something of a genius really), chorus and, although difficult to separate in the track, Glen Campbell is the guitarist for this session.

I grew up during a time when school systems actually taught the arts. From orchestra, bass, violin, piano, drums saxophone, ( just about any instrument ), to choir and singing the scales alone, ( A Capella ) while someone played piano to learning and perfecting song, to performing for parents and the community. You had to be on key or you didn’t qualify. The community provided the money for the instruments that the students played, and they were allowed to take instruments home to practice. Art classes discovered many true artist, who have gone on to become famous because they were taught how to draw, paint and sculpt. We need to go back to these days so children can explore their interests and abilities; not just for band to play during a football game. ( but at least there is this for those interested in instruments ). Everything was LIVE. Great review. 😊

Again, a live performance on TV before auto-tune or other computer assist gimmicks. Just talent. The harmony between the baritone and high tenor is just amazing. They were referred to as "Blue-eyed Soul" as evidenced by their soulful singing. Us ladies of the 60's were serenaded by men whom respected us and weren't afraid to put their emotions into words. Talent of the magnitude can't be found today. And, these guys weren't the only ones! Every solo artist, duet, group recorded songs that were soft to the ers and pierced the hearts of us ladies. Intentionally. Not impressed with much nowadays- the standards were set too high "back in the day".

These are men singing to a woman, not about her. Some 60 years gone, they are still captivating. How many of today's artists will be able to say that in 60 years?

Absolutely amazing voices. I was able to see them in concert when I was young and WOW could they sing their asses off. There is nothing like real talent.

One of the epic performances one of the most popular songs of all time. This is what was called "Blue Eyed Soul". They weren't actual brothers and their name came from a night when they were performing at a marine base back when they were unknown and several of the Black servicemen said they were "righteous". Btw 17 year old Cher was one of the backup singers.

I love watching people hear this song for the first time. Such an iconic song. I have a recommendation (nothing like Righteous Brothers) that nobody else has had the testicular fortitude to play, but it’s a powerful song by an extremely influential band. ‘Tin Omen’ by Skinny Puppy. It’s an 80s song but it’s just as relevant today as it was 35ish years ago.

OMG, that is really out of left field my friend!!! LOL. But I have to agree, I really love me some Skinny Puppy. Wow, have not heard that in literal decades. Thank you so much, going to go into/re-visit that right now!!

@@jasonmarquis7586 LOL yeah, at best you could possibly bridge to industrial in a way. For example, I have seen many of these reactors doing Johnny Cash's cover of "Hurt", I mean like prolifically the same way all of them just must do Righteous Bros (this one and Unchained Melody). So you have a 9 Inch Nails song and maybe can somehow get to Skinny Puppy, close as you maybe can get? Hey, this gives me an idea of a kind of 6 degrees of separation musical game LOL. Please connect Patsy Cline to The Sex Pistols. ha ha

Please check out the Righteous Brothers on the Andy Williams Show 1965. The song is called Unchained Melody... and it's actually a solo live performance sung by Bobby Hatfield. Often praised as the most finest male vocal performance ever recorded.

Yes, please do their Unchained Melody live performance. There is an amazing video where Andy Williams introduces The Righteous Brothers and you get to see a bit of their personalities when talking to Andy. I also agree that the performance is one of the best, if not best live performances ever recorded! It is my favourite version of Unchained Melody.
