Ann Wilson did it concerts with Heart back in the 1980. She was a close second to this Bobby Hatfield version which I have always loved. Great perennial song done by some great singers. ( I am an old, senior citizen guy, ha 🙂)
@@johns20901 I took you advice and listened to Ann Wilson. I liked it even though it was a semi-rock version not the softer version by Bobby Hatfield. That woman has one powerful voice and her high notes are stratospheric like Bobby Hatfield. Thanks I will have a listrmen to more of her songs. I like females with powerful singing voices and a broad octave range and she definitely has that un spades. 👍🇦🇺👍👍👏👏👏👏
This is a vocal masterclass... Bobby Hatfield is arguably the greatest male vocalist of all time... He had it all, the looks, the voice, and effortlessly cool... Aspiring singers should watch this performance because there was no auto tuning, no cues, nothing but raw talent... The only other person with a voice of an angel was Karen Carpenter.... Never will we hear vocals like this again. This is a fluke of nature that only ever happens once... Listening to this song is a privilege... PERFECTION 👌
That was my favorite part,it says he nailed it,also the way he bites his lower lip,he was so nervous because his parents were in the audience and hearing for the first time live.
@@suzannehuesgen9143 She was behind him so he couldn't see her during the performance. However, he said he was aware of her the entire time, and it was like when he would practice at home. He smiled because he just didn't know how not to. He was always smiling and happy.
1965 i was 12 years old and watched this on Andy Williams show, he had a cold and his mother was in attendance! RIP Bobby, you are missed and not forgotten!
This is Bobby Hatfield. Half of The Righteous Brothers. He was 25 years old here....he suffered severe stage fright...and live TV and his parents in the audience made him even more afraid. And he did THIS... 😀 Watch him biting his lip at the end as to say "See, mom...I nailed it" 😁 NO one could top this...not even the great Presley.
Bobby 's solo is the best male solo ever. A gold standard that has not been achieved by the many others trying their best. Girls and Boys this is what real talent in the '60s was all about. No autotune, nor computerized enhancement, just pure God-given talent.
No Auto-tune, no digital effects, nothing but a man standing on a stage surrounded by fans and the band playing in the background. A master artist practicing his craft. 56 years later, he still touches the soul.
He owns this song! No one can sing it like Bobby did. I was 15 yrs old in 1965 when I heard him sing it on the Andy Williams show. We melted! He's so handsome and his voice is awesome!!! RIP Bobby! 💞💞💞💞
This song was in my childhood and I’m 33…my parents and I would listen to the oldies like this when we went camping on the North Coat of California…oldies are the best
Dear Bobby I fall in love with you each time I hear/watch you sing this song in your heartfelt/soulful delivery. Your talent and sincerity are pure gold. RIP Bobby Hatfield you are missed.
Songs were magic in the 60's. Love songs were sung to women, not about women, they were about love, not sex.... Male singers sang to seduce women. When you feel like you're just a puddle of emotion, you've been swooned.....
Yes, these were the days when walking a young high school co-ed to her home from school as she slipped her hand warmly into yours you noticed the slight breezed perfume of her hair. Walking on clouds all the way to her home. Decades later and the memory is still vibrant and fresh. Very good days.
Bobby Hatfield (Rip 1940-2003) was a legendary tenor, arguably the greatest ever. Perfect pronunciation and vowels singing. He sang this solo and was his achievement. Beautiful voice 👌
It's just amazing how people who weren't alive during the hey day of the Righteous Brothers all seem to be in total awe of their talent. Bobby Hatfield's voice during this Andy Williams Show performance was beyond description...relaxed and powerful at the same time. His range was otherworldly. The way he ended this particular performance was epic. I hope Bobby is singing this everyday for everyone in Heaven.
Bobby, today is your 81st birthday. Hope you're singing this song with your helluva band in rock n roll heaven. Miss you SO much. Nobody has sung it better. Happy Happy Birthday!!!!
In 1965 men had to work a little harder to "get the girl", so the song lyrics of the time truly reflected this. Bobby's passion and talent during this performance just makes me weak in the knees. You feel like he's singing it directly to you. Swoon Swoon Swoon.
They say perfection is unattainable but this has to be close; it's hard to know how it could be improved upon. This is not an easy number to sing, but he does it effortlessly. The look, the pitch perfect notes, the mannerisms; everything is just enchanting. Agree with a previous contributor that it's sad Bobby isn't here to see the reactions to this song. Many of them are quite moving and bring tears to my eyes.
So, Bobby won the coin toss. Then he had to go out cold and nail the performance. He said he was terrified because his mother was in the audience. I'd say he kilt it!😁
LOL - yup, and ladies' ovaries are exploding everywhere. This is baby makin' music. ;-) My late uncle used to call this song "a guaranteed panty dropper" LOL. RIP Bobby Hatfield... and Uncle Bernie.
Nancy Berry Uncle Bernie was a wise man. What gets me is how women from any generation has the same reaction to this. Just a side note- you don’t hear any vulgarity from women or men on music like this.
The funny part is that Bobby's mom and dad were in the audience that evening and he was a nervous wreck about performing in front of them. But he sure hid it well!
this has got to be one of the most on point live solo performances of all time. Kinda wish Bobby was alive to witness some of these reactions over 55 years later. Love your ear for soul Lovely la Love, you got another loyal Subscriber :)
One of the greatest tenors of the 20th century. Fortunately the people at this performance were sitting in chairs. This is from a live episode of the Andy Williams Show.
You are swooning....I'm sure that's what many of the women in the audience were feeling too, This is a singer with feeling and a lot of actual talent, before autotune.
It is called blue eyed soul. And while this song has been recorded by over 670 artists, the version by the Righteous Brothers is considered the quintessential version. The late great Bobby Hatfield simply knocked it out of the park. Perhaps your momma didn't share this song with you because of how it speaks to a woman's heart and her soul. Historians will never know how many babies were conceived because of this song. Thank you Bobby for this amazing gift. RIP.
Couple of things. First, I love Lovely's reaction. Second, heartfelt lyrics. Third, a wonderful composition for the orchestra or band. Third, the orchestra played phenomenally. Fourth, the silence of the audience almost leaned into and along with the presentation, giving it along with Bobby and the orchestra, an air of reverence for love. And lastly, Bobby Hatfield....what a voice. I consider it an epic masterpiece, a gift of love to the world to cherish. Bravo to all.
Lovely La Love (beautiful name) Your Reaction and comments were some of The BEST!!!!! Thank You, Thank You!!!...for reviewing this, this,....this....this....???....performance is SO MANY things! A previous poster commented that Bobby Hatfield's rendition of "Unchained Melody" here on this 1965 TV show...is...."...an Epic Masterpiece, a Gift of Love to the World, to Cherish." This is truly what this performance has become. Bobby, the lyrics, the composition, the orchestra, the mics and cameras...came together that night...and gave US a monumental Gift. Like yourself Lovely, I would feel..."less"...without this Gift.
Bobby Hatfield was just the greatest singer who ever lived. No one can sing this awesome song as Bobby did. Like you I feel it coming from his soul. Songs like this and singers like Bobby are few and thank god there is no apartheid when it comes to music ❤❤❤👍👍
This is the quintessential love song. There are many out there but non like Bobby Hatfields singing this. Try Rock and Roll Heaven, and Soul and Inspiration and of course “You’ve Lost that loving Feeling which was the most Played song of the 20th Century. Young people need to appreciate great music. Thx for playing it.
Love how you're reacting, like you can't believe what's coming out his mouth. Haha, I'm 62 year's old and grew up on this music and it he was alive today seeing your reactions and statement, he would be so happy his music has given you joy. Thanks again for listening to the good oldies of rock n Roll
Bobby Hatfield and Bill Medley were the perfect offset..This was a solo, live performance by Bobby on the Andy William's show back in the 60's..I think it's even better than his actual recording of this song..especially with those killer notes at the end..in another stratosphere. But all of Bobby's solo ballads are in comparable. ." Sentimental Reasons" ," I Believe", "My Prayer", " I Need A Girl", "White Cliffs of Dover"..His range and control is simply incredible..voice like velvet..
When an Artist makes you feel the song, he or she has done there job with the song and I see you Lovely have felt the song one of the best ever reactions I 've ever seem and I listen to 100's of reactors I'm defintly subscribing to you I want to see more of your wonderful reactions you just made my day with your sweet reaction Darling
Me encanta que las Nuevas Generaciones escuchen a Cantantes de CALIDAD. Ni comparada a la música Basura de la actualidad. Felicitaciones querida amiga. La sigo desde ahora, saludos cordiales desde Chile
Right!!! GOOSEBUMPS, babygirl!! !! Guys dont do it like this anymore, do they!! You are just too cute! I loved watching your enjoyment of this timeless classic! Bravo!! Very well done!!🌹❤❤👍👍💛💜🧡💚
This was LIVE, in 1965…no electronic enhancements whatsoever, just Bobby Hatfield, his voice, and the microphone
Mr. Hatfield owns this song NO ONE can do it better NO ONE ! Rest in peace Bobby !
Ann Wilson did it concerts with Heart back in the 1980. She was a close second to this Bobby Hatfield version which I have always loved. Great perennial song done by some great singers. ( I am an old, senior citizen guy, ha 🙂)

The cheeky smile at the end gets me every time , he knew he nailed it .. Maybe the best live performance of all time .. 💞
Best..why of course--YES.
That was my favorite part,it says he nailed it,also the way he bites his lower lip,he was so nervous because his parents were in the audience and hearing for the first time live.
Just a stellar all-time performance for the ages.
I heard he was nervous and when it went well he smiled at his mother.
@@suzannehuesgen9143 She was behind him so he couldn't see her during the performance. However, he said he was aware of her the entire time, and it was like when he would practice at home. He smiled because he just didn't know how not to. He was always smiling and happy.
Beautiful voice, beautiful man, beautiful song. God really handed out the talent on the day this man was born. What a classic!
The man was sent by God blessed us briefly with his beautiful voice and now he sings amongst the Angels.
1965 i was 12 years old and watched this on Andy Williams show, he had a cold and his mother was in attendance! RIP Bobby, you are missed and not forgotten!
HE MADE THAT LOOK EASY. One of the best live vocal performances EVER

NO one could top this...not even the great Presley.
This song is from a time when singers had actual talent!
Auto tune has been the death of pure music and talent. Mostly anyway.
Floor Jansen.
Now computers have talent.
Bobby 's solo is the best male solo ever. A gold standard that has not been achieved by the many others trying their best. Girls and Boys this is what real talent in the '60s was all about. No autotune, nor computerized enhancement, just pure God-given talent.
You witnessed the best performance for all time. Your reaction was right on target. Be safe and take care.
By far, Bobby Hatfield's rendition is the BEST. The range and control of his voice is just phenomenal.
No Auto-tune, no digital effects, nothing but a man standing on a stage surrounded by fans and the band playing in the background. A master artist practicing his craft. 56 years later, he still touches the soul.
Yes, indeed ❤
Live performance, outstanding.
He owns this song! No one can sing it like Bobby did. I was 15 yrs old in 1965 when I heard him sing it on the Andy Williams show. We melted! He's so handsome and his voice is awesome!!! RIP Bobby! 💞💞💞💞
From a time when real men wore suits and sang love songs to the women they loved instead of calling them bitches.
This song was in my childhood and I’m 33…my parents and I would listen to the oldies like this when we went camping on the North Coat of California…oldies are the best

It's real and it's live. No auto tune, just raw talent.
I was 15 and I remember this. Bobby had a voice that you would swear no human being could have. Damn, it was great to be young in the 60s
Just a man on stage 58 years ago with a microphone perfection
Bobby did this live, on the spot with no editing and no autotune!!!! That is true talent!!!!!

Bobby owned the stage on this one. You can’t do better! 🙌🙌
Oh yeah. Love from the smallest state in Union..Rhode Island.
FYI His Mother was in the audience!
Hence, the lip bite and smile at the end😁
This is THE best vocal performance anybody has ever heard.
This is the best song that I've ever heard in my life every time I listen to it I tear up
In 1965 men had to work a little harder to "get the girl", so the song lyrics of the time truly reflected this. Bobby's passion and talent during this performance just makes me weak in the knees. You feel like he's singing it directly to you. Swoon Swoon Swoon.
My first concert in early 60s. They are still my favorite singers ❤️
They say perfection is unattainable but this has to be close; it's hard to know how it could be improved upon. This is not an easy number to sing, but he does it effortlessly. The look, the pitch perfect notes, the mannerisms; everything is just enchanting. Agree with a previous contributor that it's sad Bobby isn't here to see the reactions to this song.

Age , race, generation....doesn't matter beautiful song and beautiful voice blended into perfection.
I think this might be the best individual performance of all time. Perfect and beautiful.
Nailed it without a doubt !! Best version ......
Just a warning to the ladies- birth control is totally ineffective when this song is playing. The pill gets destroyed
LOL - yup, and ladies' ovaries are exploding everywhere. This is baby makin' music. ;-)
My late uncle used to call this song "a guaranteed panty dropper" LOL. RIP Bobby Hatfield... and Uncle Bernie.
Nancy Berry Uncle Bernie was a wise man. What gets me is how women from any generation has the same reaction to this. Just a side note- you don’t hear any vulgarity from women or men on music like this.
Lol
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😯wait... what? 🤭
That’s why I call the righteous brothers panty removers! Wonder how many backseat babies happened to this song??!? ❤️
Gift, skill and talent all wrapped up in one package...his singing voice.
The funny part is that Bobby's mom and dad were in the audience that evening and he was a nervous wreck about performing in front of them. But he sure hid it well!
The perfect song sung by the perfect singer!
Gr8 reaction, for one of the gr8, songs.....👍😉🇬🇧
How could you have gone thru life this long and not heard the Righteous Brothers? In a movie, TV show if nothing else. This is timeless music.
Yes, it is for real. Yes, we've been hearing it for 55 years. Welcome to the Blue Eyed Soul club! Better late than never.
One of The Greatest Songs of all Time
The greatest performance of all time. It beats even the studio version hand down.
this has got to be one of the most on point live solo performances of all time. Kinda wish Bobby was alive to witness some of these reactions over 55 years later. Love your ear for soul Lovely la Love, you got another loyal Subscriber :)
Welcome, and thank you😚
I wish "now" I had approached him when I saw him playing the slots in Vegas back in the 80's.
he would be shocked but delighted, such a strange feeling knowing he isn't here, think thats why I cry everytime I listen to it.
Wonderful! AMAZING !!!
Yes, that is for real. That was HIS voice, with just a microphone, no autotune back then. Bobby Hatfield was a tenor, not just a singer.
He actually was a natural countertenor... higher than a tenor. Amazing talent!
No auto tune. No tweeking. Just pure talent.
The way he bit his lip at the end was adorable...♥️
He knew he nailed it, and you know his mom, who was in the audience, was in tears.
His Voice and a Microphone " It's All Him ! " Amazing Singer.
The world was not perfect in 1965, but many things were a whole lot better than today
Bobby Hatfield....Taking women's breaths away since the '60s.
One of the greatest tenors of the 20th century. Fortunately the people at this performance were sitting in chairs. This is from a live episode of the Andy Williams Show.
You are swooning....I'm sure that's what many of the women in the audience were feeling too, This is a singer with feeling and a lot of actual talent, before autotune.
Love seeing ladies blown away by Bobby's voice and song. 😁
This beautiful style of singing was called "blue-eyed soul" back in the 60's. Priceless voice!!!
It is called blue eyed soul. And while this song has been recorded by over 670 artists, the version by the Righteous Brothers is considered the quintessential version. The late great Bobby Hatfield simply knocked it out of the park.

Thank you Bobby for this amazing gift. RIP.
Bobby Hatfield did the finest cover I have ever heard. I can predict the future. No one will ever do this song better.
Couple of things. First, I love Lovely's reaction. Second, heartfelt lyrics. Third, a wonderful composition for the orchestra or band. Third, the orchestra played phenomenally. Fourth, the silence of the audience almost leaned into and along with the presentation, giving it along with Bobby and the orchestra, an air of reverence for love.

Some come close and some even equal.....but NONE will ever do this better. R.I.P. brother Bobby.
Best song ever!!!!!
This has to be the greatest live performance of all time
incomparably beautiful and perfect song and voice.
Legs turn to butter when I hear this song by him.
He crushed it on this performance
That my dear, is some serious blue-eyed soul!

He had the most incredible range.
Bobby Hatfield was the man!
I believe you 😊
His parents were in the audience and he was nervous. That was him nervous ;)
This song can melt any girls heart
Beautiful reaction!
I've heard he sang 24 different notes in this song . . . and all on key!
He is in my opinion the best live act to date now one can do this live 🐈❤️❤️🇬🇧
Voice like butter!
Bobby Hatfield was just the greatest singer who ever lived. No one can sing this awesome song as Bobby did. Like you I feel it coming from his soul. Songs like this and singers like Bobby are few and thank god there is no apartheid when it comes to music ❤❤❤👍👍
Oh be still my heart! This is romance, talent, and passion!
And Bobby does it again
Great reaction
An incredible song, an incredible voice, honey.
This is the quintessential love song. There are many out there but non like Bobby Hatfields singing this.

Amazing reaction! Some parts really blew you away. One of my favorite performances of all-time!
Bobby Hatfied is one of the few in the world who can pull this song off with such e fausado voice.
One more they sing directly into your heart: *You're My Soul and Inspiration*

The voice of an angel..... the bite on the lip at the end tells it. No AutoTune.
Bobby was blessed by god really outrageous
Me encanta que las Nuevas Generaciones escuchen a Cantantes de CALIDAD. Ni comparada a la música Basura de la actualidad.

My personal opinion here . This is greatest song ever.
Mr Hatfield on beast mode! Legend!
Bobby had the voice of an angel
Love your reaction! I still get all emotional when I hear Bobby Hatfield sing this.
You were the most moving swooner I have seen over this performance.
