    They weren't really brothers, but Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield were most definitely righteous, defining and perhaps even inspiring the term "blue-eyed Soul" in the mid-'60s. Bobby Hatfield was born on August 10th, 1940 in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, and Bill Medley was born on September 19th, the same year in Santa Ana, California. When Medley and Hatfield combined forces in 1962, they emerged from regional groups The Paramours and The Variations. In fact, they kept The Paramours billing for their first single. Thinking of a new name, the pair remembered the night they sang in front of a group of U.S. Marines. After their set, one of the Marines shouted out, "That's righteous brothers!" and the name stuck.

    @js3599 Год назад +214

    Whenever I find somebody that has never heard of the righteous brothers, I always recommend their video for "You've Lost That Loving Feeling"... The Black and White version, not the later version in color... I firmly believe that that is the perfect intro to this iconic duo...
    They start out in shadow, and you only see their silhouettes... Then Bill (The tall one) starts singing in his rich, deep baritone voice... Then they bring the lights up and shows them... I have seen several first time reactors lose their minds when they see they are white... Then they really lose their minds in the last verse once Bobby stops singing back up and steps up to show off his own vocals... Even the ones who noticed Bobby can sing too are totally blown away... Priceless to see...
    It is the ultimate introduction song, better then ANY other song they have for this purpose... Just for those revelations in that performance... Sets them up perfectly for the greatness that lies ahead in this rabbit hole... An entire arsenal of killer songs/performances...
    Also, the song you heard before was "Unchained Melody"... Most people who say they don't know it recognize it once they hear it... They just didn't know the name of the song... Bill didn't think it would be a hit, so he didn't "Waste his time" with it... Bobby made it the best known, most successful cover of that song... Literally thousands of artists have recorded it. The original version was from the 1955 movie "Unchained"...

    Bill Medley did a duet with Jennifer Warnes for the soundtrack for the hit film “Dirty Dancing”, which was titled “I’ve Had The Time Of My Life”. It’s great. Bill is the only one still with us. Bobby Hatfield died in 2003 at the age of 63. He had a fatal heart attack, brought on by years of cocaine abuse. My favorite song of theirs is actually “Rock N’Rock Heaven”. Bill Medley changes the lyrics slightly in live shows-he now says BOBBY has a hell of a band! Bill’s still touring at 83!

      What nonsense. I find it interesting that those close to him family and actual friends never saw him using or under the influence, but Internet gossips have their crazy imaginations.
      His cardiovascular issues were those of countless older men. The autopsy found he was a serious need of bypass surgery. The need for that surgery is caused by genetics and diet, not cocaine or anything else. As fate would have it, he had a doctor's appointment for after that tour. If it was before the tour, possibly, he would be hanging out with his grandchildren now instead of in his grave 20 years.
      That cocaine found in the autopsy (if it was actually there) was described by the medical examiner as a trace amount. But, hey, you go ahead and malign a good man.
      He was a fantastic singer, but I like that he was a devoted, loving husband and a loving, caring father even more.

It is the 1965 black and white version that is iconic. Don't make yourself suffer any longer and do a reaction to it right away. Also, you need hear their version of I Just Want To Make Love To You, probably the best panty dropping song of all time.

Frank Sinatra took a liking to them and used to bring his friends to watch the brothers after he was done performing for the night. He took them under his wing and referred to them as " the boys". The Righteous Brothers said that is how they learned to be entertainers and not just singers. They got to know the Rat Pack. A some juicy tales in Bill Medley's book about their early times in Vegas.

    The term "Blue Eyed Soul" was coined to describe this Duo. They helped change the world...For the Better.

    The black and white version of "You've Lost That Lovin Feeling" is their classic super song. It's amazing!

    My big sister was 15 when the Righteous Brothers came along. She actually got to see them perform live at a Southern Cal teen club before they really hit it big. Donna maintained a serious crush on Bill Medley (the taller one) for many years and I was treated to their music from the little portable hi-fi in her bedroom; although it was a little muted through the wall between our rooms. If our parents weren't present, it would rock the house!

    My mom loved to tell the story of their arrival on the music scene. Obviously, people just heard music on the radio back then. When their music was 1st being released, everyone thought that they were black. When they actually made a TV appearance, people were so shocked! Lol
    You hit the nail on the head saying "soul". You are just saying this while I'm typing! 😂😂
    She said that the exact opposite happened with Charley Pride.

      Britt, I do really enjoy your creative "analyzing" and descriptions. That is, in my opinion, the most interesting part of your "reactions." I just keep saving the links for a quiet afternoon when I need some music... and some more music... whether its "blue eyed soul" or any of dozens of other varieties. 😄

    They got their name from an early gig where a guy in the audience stood up after one of their numbers and hollered, "That's righteous brother!"

    Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil are the songwriters who wrote incredible Pop, R&B, and country. Their songs were recorded by the Supremes, Ronettes, and one of my favorites Dolly Partons here you come again. Linda Ronstadt, the Pointer Sisters, the Everly Brothers, Dione Warwick, and Bett Midler, all recorded songs this duo wrote.

    Bill, tall, dark, and handsome, is a Baritone, Bobby, the cute blond is the Tenor. You will never hear a better duo. Perfection. Bobby is gone from us. But he left us a legacy of beautiful music. Bill is still singing at the age of 82. They would each do solo work on their albums. Solo or duo, no one could touch them!

    The Righteous Brothers,got their name one night playing at a club they didn't have a name yet, but there was one man in the crowd who shouted out after they finished singing he said,"that was righteous brothers" and it stuck.

    Your reaction is amazing. I'm an old white guy and I grew up with this music. My mom would always play music. You named a couple. Smokey Robinson, the O Jays, The Temptations. So many others. Amazing music. Thank you for reacting to such a wonderful song.

      Ditto for me as well on all points. All that food Britt listed was just normal menu items for my family growing up. Never cared for the greens (collards, spinach, turnip) but it was just one of those kid preference things as they were served fairly routinely. I think the food is more of a southern culture thing rather than racial culture. At 70, I've learned to eat my spinach too. 🙂

    The tall one is Bill Medley and he’s a bass-baritone, the blond is Bobby Hatfield and he’s. A tenor-countertenor. They were dubbed “Blue-Eyed Soul.” No auto tune, none of the tricks used today, just pure talent. You’re right when you say they sound like Smokey Robinson, the Platters, the Commodores-all those smooth-singing , do-wop groups. I have had a thing for Bill and his deep, sexy voice for over sixty years.

    In my time we called it "Blue Eyed Soul" young lady. I just watched your reaction to Bobby Hatfield's "Unchained Melody". I was hoping you would react to this one to see the great Bill Medley let it out on this song. I'm happy to see you enjoyed the song, and the look on your face told the story. BTW, since you enjoyed the Rightrous Brothers so much I'm going to name you an honorary "Boomer".😉

    Another of their Live performances. 1966 - no auto tune here either - as with the rest of their Live performances. Just pure talent, soulful singing, beautiful lyrics and baritone/3 octave tenor harmony! Righteous Brothers!!

    The smaller guy is Bobby Hatfield and he is the tenor. Bill Medley has the deep baritone voice. Amazing team and the name given to them by Marines at a club who said they were just “ righteous” and they took that name! Bill is still alive and Bobby has passed away. This song is 60 years old almost. Too good 💞🙏💞

    "Blue-eyed Soul" is what they were known for! Bill Medley is the tall one, and was good friends with Elvis in the 70's. Bobby Hatfield is the shorter one, the one who sang "Unchained Melody" solo on the Andy Williams Show in the 60's. Incredible ranges; beautiful voices! By the way, you described a Southern Sunday afternoon dinner to a tee (sweet tea, that is!) LOL!

    You have such a great way of describing how you’re feeling when you listen to this music.
    Keep those reactions coming. ❤

    Bill Medley, Bobby Hatfield. They were singing at a club one night and really did not have a name for themselves to market under. When they finished the set, a guy in the audience stood up and said " That's Righteous man ! " True story. One of the top 5 names in that era.

    The Righteous Brothers 's songs were everywhere in a teen's life in the 60's. Nobody sang love songs better except maybe Elvis. As a teen then I can say all my friend's both girls and boys played their songs often at home on our record players!
