      Hi guys,
      I'm a 65 year old white woman who grew up a hippie back in the early "70's" & never out-grew
      it . I'm told I have a very retro style & a strong rebellious streak.
      You guys are such a breath of fresh air. I absolutely love how you listen to ALL types of music suggested with an open mind regardless of color, race, etc of the musicians. You cracked me up with this one. It was so obvious that you had a hard time believing that a white guy could sing that well. Too funny. I watch all your videos. The first was Phil Collins & you & your brother were freaking out. I was hooked from there on
      Thanks so much for making this old woman laugh & bringing me music I had forgotten about. Keep up the good work.

    Some additional information - This is the first time that they sung in a large venue. They usually sang in small clubs. He was so nervous he said, that he almost was ready to faint right before doing this song. He was also not feeling well either. This was the first time his parents were in the audience. He was only about 25 years old at the time.

      @Hollingsworth2781 4 года назад +36

      @USA#1 !! I think that it is no big deal what he said. I don't think meant much by it. He was just little surprised to hear someone sing in that style. Just an observation that the singer sounded similar to someone of color to him. I was pointing out that people from all races can sing that way. Culturally, many white people may not grow up with certain types of music that they listen to. But all kinds of people have talent for all kinds of things when they are exposed to them. Stereotypes have truth to them. But many times they come off insulting as you act that everyone in a class of people normally behaves a certain way. It is wrong to say “I thought you were white on the phone,” because you are implying that all people of color, talk a certain way. You were that the person that said that he did not sound "ghetto". And you were surprised that he quote unquote sounded white. And by that you meant that the person sounded intelligent, without ebonics and not "ghetto", I assume? So that is a bit of an an insult. But I don't think that you meant it as an insult. You just meant that the person was well spoken.
      And who cares how people speak anyway. That is the way people speak where they come from. It is how they grew up. It is part of their culture. We are all the same inside. We all want the same things out of life. But we have simply have different shades of skin, come from different cultures and have some sociological differences. But the color of our skin itself has no bearing on who we are or what we become. Essentially we are really similar, as we are all human.

    I love how this guy and his brother are completely natural, respectful and kind in his review. So refreshing to hear his unbiased views of ‘back in the day’ (so nicely put) music. It is a great forum for everyone to learn without being bogged down in details. Instead first impression is so educating on its own. Listening to the music with him does sometimes bring me to tears. It is a therapeutic remedy during the pandemic also to know people are helping him learn and then helping us learn. The ‘collective’ is so healing.

    That’s why they called them “Blue Eyed Soul”. 😂

    Find a singer like that today no Auto tune no special effects just straight talent. That's why old skool tunes still sound so good today. That's real music right there.

      Dude...come on. There are a thousand artists that can sing beautifully without auto tune. Just open your ears man. That doesn’t take away the fact that the righteous brothers are legends....but you’re objectively wrong if you think there aren’t people nowadays that’s can’t sing without auto tune.

      That's totally true of commercial music...but check out Quarantine Karaoke now! Some really amazing artists there.

      The classics sound better only because the good ones are the ones that still get played.
      That said, autotune is tired.

    I am an old lady but I absolutely LOVE your channel! I waited for you ro hear him in the 2nd half of the song knowing he would take your heart away. Wasn't he a talent? I am so happy that a young soul like yours can understand and truly appreciate the music we were blessed with back in the 1960s. You make smile....

    Bobby had severe stage fright which had to have been worse as his mother there during this Andy Williams show performance. Bobby had a *four octave range* . What you seeing her is complete CONTROL in his singing. He didn't have to *strain* his high notes. Their song "You've Lost That Loving Feeling" holds the record as most song plays ever on the radio. If you REALLY want to listen to a true blue eyed soul listen to "I Just Want to Make Love With You". Also he is only 25 years old when performing this song. It is from the Andy Williams Show and yes it was live. It was in the "Ghost" movie soundtrack.
    The ladies listen and get blushed.
