It was in the film Ghost.
OMG THAT’S IT!!!!!!!!! Thank you for giving me some peace lol! I fan sleep well tonight knowing I’m only a little bit crazy 🙃
Lol. Welcome to the oldies Britt! There are so many out there, that reaches out from movies
You heard the song when you watch the movie Ghost with Whoopi Goldberg and Patrick swayze
This song originated in a movie; "Unchained".
@@timhonigs6859 I was just wondering about your mother? I'm sure she's gone by you I'm sure she's a d*** good looking woman number 1 number 2 I'm a d*** good looking man number 3 h*** we're about the same age so you see what I say? How about it is she single? Hey
No autotune, on a live show. Pure vocal genius
There was no Autotune in the 60s it came out in 1997. important info for all the autotune experts we have on you tube😂😂😂
@@DJMikeron 60 years now, and no live solo can touch it.............incredible
Well no doubt this man was gifted to a degree, he brought out, taking it to the highest level attainable where few are ever are able to reach...!
This is live, on TV 1966. No auto-tune, just Bobby. Bobby's mother and fiance were in the audience, at this time. Totally not the record released. He did this himself. The best performance of this song ever., Will never be topped.
@1973 thunderbirds ruclips.net/video/LZd-NryAGDA/видео.html
true
the best performance of any song on TV, ever
And Bobby was suffering from a severe throat infection at this time.
Autotune was developed to keep the speakers from squealing with powerful voices. He did have autotune just not how you know it. Autotune is actually a good thing.
Still blows me away all these decades later. Live broadcast. One take. Not a single note out of place. Perfectly timed by both the artist and the orchestra. There isn't a performer alive today who would dare attempt this much less top it.
Try young Angelina... Angelina Jordan!
Mr. Mister Broken Wings 12/14/1985 Ritz
@tradde11 I know the feeling! My guess its Ghost that has set the level for us born in the end of 50´s and 60. perhaps even later. But i knew this version earlier. It´s still mindblowing!
Not to mention that his Mom was in the audience
Hello, I'm reminded of typists of the day.
At the end of this performance,he bit his lip and smiled. He knew he had nailed it!
His parents were also in the audience.
@@maddiesmom2 yes they were and from what I read he did that smile at the end for his mom
That’s what caught my breath and made my heart skipped… that lower lip biting 😍🥰
Bobby Hatfield is just awesome, I could listen to this song over and over.
Song has been covered over 670 times .....But Bobby owns it ...hands down !!!!
Absolutely!
I remember hearing this song for this first time and being floored... I can't remember which covered I heard, but I thought it was unbeatable. Sure enough, then I heard the original and ~once again~ my jaw dropped and I was floored. Even though the very best singers on the planet have all tried their hand at this song and have some touching and smashing cover, it's genuinely really hard to hold a candle to this OG performance by Bobby. Love the music of this time period, so much sincere soul put in there, the kind of stuff you can't get today cause we're too distracted to ever be that committed to anything.
He reportedly had no formal training. He was a natural.
He wasn’t even the first to sing it. Just the most remembered.
If I was a singer, I would n😮ever do that song no matter how good I was. Bobby owns it, and no one could do it justice.
You should hear both of them, singing, "You've Lost That Loving Feeling".
"All I want to do is make love to you." Bill is steamin' and Bobby adds some coals to the fire.
Yes, This song will really blow your mind!
🎯 C Bob! They were awesome together in that big hit. Bobby's octave range here proves he had gills not lungs😅 Really sad early loss like so many. You're correct-it was Ghost soundtrack and this was the jukebox standard version. I think Elvis's June '77 version is next best- especially considering the swollen, staggering and stumbling man would be dead 8 weeks later. Love this upload Britt!
Absolutely!!!
Play you lost that lovin feelin
And the fact that he doesn't look like he's straining at all. And this is live.... perfection. And yes, this man is handsome in every way possible. Then he opens his mouth to sing. Just when you thought he couldn't get any better. ❤
He's singing DIRECTLY from his heart!
💌💘💝💝💖💗💓💞💕💟❣
Like an angel❤❤❤
My future wife and I danced to unchanged melody at my junior prom. We have had 54 anniversaries and still rock each others world. It's called blue eyed soul.
❤
❤❤❤❤
I was 8 when i first heard this song in 1965 and its stayed with me all my life...The best performance of a song ever
I love this reaction sooo much. Being a person from the Righteous Brothers generation it’s so refreshing to see a genuine reaction of someone from a new generation of respect and appreciation! 🩷
16 years old then, that was one popular dance song back then, great years.
Ditto !
That's when we dances slow at high school proms Friday night football early 60's
Awesome!!!
This performance by Bobby was on the Andy Williams show. His mother was in the audience, and he was very nervous, but youd never know that. Smooth as silk...blue eyed Soul is what the Righteous Brothers were called back then. Pure talent, no auto tune, just Bobby & the mic...
In an extended clip you will see Andy ask Bill why he wasn't on this recording and Bill he didn't think it would be a hit. He admitted to screwing up.
@@softshoes Yes, Ive seen that clip :)
Another Great Reaction 👍🙏👣
@@softshoes It was a joke.
Bill Medley played the piano on this tune
In 1965 I was in Vietnam. When I heard this song I was stunned. One of the best songs I had ever heard.
As others have mentioned: 1965. Live performance. No autotune, no sophisticated audio filters, no retakes or dubbing. Just pure, raw, disciplined talent. I wish we had music and singers like this today.
Believe that to be the greatest solo performance ever recorded. One man,one 🎤, no fillers.
And I'm a hard rock/blues guy. He nailed it.
It was fantastic but Sir Tom Jones live performance on the BBC of ‘I’ll never fall in love again’ in 1967 was for many the greatest ever. Tom’s power, range, tone and emotion was second to none. Even now in his 80’s he can still sing amazingly well and recently had a No.1 hit in the UK which says it all!
@@bellabana Bobby's was better!
This was the best ever rendition of a song that no one else ever mastered. Even Elvis couldn't get it right.
Elvis had good range but this song was wayyyy outta his reach the falsetto transmission between miiiine I neeeeeeed yuuuuur luuuuuurrveee
I’ve heard it sung by several others and this live version, by far is the best! Normally I prefer a studio recordings but this is over the top great!
His range, his smoothness and how he can carry and hold a note is amazing!
Elvis was so used to singing a song on one or two takes. This version required weeks of extra work.
It was sung live not a studio one with takes and retakes.@@JackSquat54
Ann Wilson live.
Have you ever made a 57 year old man cry before? You did it tonite! You're a doll. Thanks for your thoughts and welcome to our world!
Hell try 73, Thank you Britt; watching your reactions was as great as the song itself.
Yep. She radiates joy.
Just love when youngins finally hear our music
Amen. When the TV series "Supernatural" came out, and they used many songs from the 60s and 70s, I got to watch my kid really get into "my music" and gain an appreciation of that 60s-70s era.
To be fair, it charted again in the early 1990s when the movie Ghost came out.
No one can sing like this live now. He is truly a professional
No vocal coach in the world can teach that...that's talent straight from God
YUP...
Amen. I heard that too.
What young kids like this little lady do not fully appreciate there was no auto-tuning or mixing or anything else back then you either had a really great voice or you sucked
I think even God would take a bow to that one....
Absolutely, I could practice for 200 years.
Ain't happening. God blessed both guys with pipes. Other guy much deeper voice.
Bobby Hatfield of 'The Righteous Brothers' had incredible range and was a very humble man. RIP
The other 'Righteous Brother' was Bill Medley, who sang bass and baritone in perfect harmony of all their other hits. They got the name when someone heard them for the first time and just said, "Those are some righteous brothers!"
One of a kind and a truly beautiful personality! The song is actually getting more play and more attention now than it did back in the sixties when it came out. I'm glad it's getting the recognition it deserves! Go Bobby!😊
It is soooo good.
He sang that too get out of the dog house because the problem the girl in his life had a spat so he sort of was s
Singing to her also.
Honey, I'm 67 years old and can remember vividly how I felt every time I danced to this song. It was the most romantic song of the era. It was perfect.
One of the greatest vocals of all time. For my generation, it was slow dance music at our high school dances. Never equaled.
Bobby Hatfield is the most underrated singer Ever! And this is the best performance ever!
HE AND MY BOY BOBBY CALDWELL!!
Will never be topped.absolute perfection.a masterpiece.this god-given voice delivered a song that will endure as possibly,the greatest song ever sung live.bobby:rest well with our heavenly Father.and know that this song has filled millions of hearts with love,tenderness,and boundless joy.thank you Lord for giving us this man,this voice.
The movie was Ghost (90's) with Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore, and Whoopie Goldberg. Three hanky ending! This performance was and remains THE definitive version of this song! It was live (no autotune) he had a head cold and was worried about that top note at the end, AND his mom was in the audience and had never heard him perform live before. Nailed it!!! This performance is even better than the studio version you would hear on the radio. Bobby Hatfield sang tenor through countertenor, not falsetto as many mistakenly presume. That's his natural range. As he sings you can see how relaxed his jaw is which is why he can do those amazing runs! The other brother is Bill Medley who sings bass/baritone and they harmonize fantastically. Check out You've Lost That Loving Feeling, the live performance from 1964. It is incredible! You will love it for sure. It was THE most requested song on the radio in the 20th century.
do you always carry on like this to people you never met? Lol
Bobby Hatfield's studio version of this song was used in the movie, Ghost. As great as that is, this live performance is unmatched. Literally hundreds of great artists have covered the song, but Bobby Hatfield owns it.
But the association of this song to Ghost has been overblown IMO regardless of the movie which was great....it is the performance here we are talking about. Song was originally written for the movie Unchained (1955)...it was sung by a character in prison in the movie with just a guitar and nothing more. Song became more popular than the movie for sure, as many covers were done before Bobby did it..I just prefer to isolate the greatness of the song without the Ghost reference because so many cry "Ghost, Ghost Ghost" every time they hear this song, it gets redundant. The song is stupendous on it's own merits...without movies...
Yup, Richard.... I was there in the 1960s.... that was on the Andy Williams Show when he performed it... mind blown... still, to this day.
@@MyRofaith I might have seen it on TV but was too young to appreciate the song. I would have been nine years old then! So glad you had that experience!
I was a teenager listening and solo dancing to The Righteous Brothers. Grateful for the music I was able to enjoy.
I love seeing young people appreciate this song which was sung without any fancy electronic help. This young lady is cute and has a nice personality and if I was younger I would buy her some roses
Me Too!!!! Totally agree!
Me to unfortunately in a different country
@@pault1964 You can buy flowers online and have them shipped. You obviously have internet access.
Ghost...
Me too I hope she is genuine .
Awww the late Bobby Hatfield. I was 15 yrs old when I heard him sing this beautiful song on the Andy Williams show in 1965. His voice was so awesome! RIP Bobby. We miss your beautful voice. No auto tunes. Pure raw talent!!!
He KILLED it! 1st version, & still the best! Thanks for your reaction.
One of the all time great performances.
I saw the Righteous Brothers in the early 60s and then again in the late 80s. There was nothing like hearing them live. Bobby Hatfield with his fabulous tenor and Bill Medley with his bass -baritone voices were unmatched during thier years together.
My wife has me play this song on our anniversary ever year.
We dance, and fall in love ❤️ with each other all over again! Thank you Bobby for this all time beautiful song, music by Alex North, lyrics by
Hy Zaret in 1955! Originally recorded by Todd Duncan for the sound track of the prison film unchanged in 1955!
Tom tucker...y'all have smart in touch with love wife ... bless you both❤
Bobby Hatfield…making women stick to their seats for over 60 years. Was a great time to grow up.
Best line ever.....😅😅😅😂😂😂😂
That's a sick image of women enjoying and loving this man and his song! Kinda nasty, YUCK!!
I agree they were the greatest years
😂😂😂❤❤❤
His mother was in the audience 🤷♀️
This was live...no autotune, no effects, no nothing. All Bobby. Just like you'd hear him in your living room.
Just loved your delightful, insightful, and appreciative reaction to what is undoubtedly the best ever live vocal performance ❤
The one singing "Unchained Melody" is Bobby Hatfield, who's no longer with us. The other "brother" (no relation) is Bill Medley. This song is a rarity . . . with only one brother involved. You MUST check out the live performance of "You've Lost That Loving Feeling" by the Righteous Brothers. FYI, "You've Lost That Loving Feeling" was the most-played song on radio and TV in the 20th century. You'll love it. Also, GREAT reaction on this tune! Love the church towel.
That’s true. But not until it overtook “The Beatles - Yesterday” in 1999. Then it got supplanted by “The Police - Every Breath You Take” in 2019.
Top gun! Great song
@@alanaduran9045 Here we go again...the song was superior on it's own merits long before Top Gun...
@@thomastimlin1724 I'm confused. What do you mean here we go again? Cuz I mentioned top gun? Love the Righteous Brothers. The incorporation of a classic in that movie made me love the movie. Although I've seen far better karaoke performances of it😂
@@frankiek2269 Yes, it was the most played song in the entirety of the 20th century, according to BMI. 2019 isn't the 20th century.
Welcome to blue-eyed soul.
The righteous Brothers have an incredible library of music, you'll not find a bad one.
Bobby Hatfield was a heart throb back in the day. Daughter's were warned not to dance to this song at proms.
Definitely blue-eyed soul.❤
What a great reaction! I loved your commentary and it didn't detract from the brilliance of his vocals! ❤😂!
He is an amazing singer with fantastic range. He hits notes. The other people have to strain for, but he is relaxed and smooth. He will note that you can understand his words because they’re so clear with every syllable, consonants and vowel can be heard.
Thank You for the first comment I've seen of one of the many factors of my assessments of Bobby Hatfield's superb singing abilities -- his enunciation, with the emotion and all else.
YES!!
This is The Gold Standard for this song and this presentation on a T.V. show is the
best rendition, even better than that which was used in the movie 'Ghost'.
I just keep watching this over and over to see the look on your face when he hits that note .
His voice was velvet, and he made all the women cry. Rest in peace, Bobby.
When it comes to this song - he's simply the best in the World.
I totally agree bobby was a hunk! Him and Bill were both very handsome men! Small microphones, when you see them you know you are going to see some really great talent! I loved, loved, loved your reaction to him! Peace to you too!
One if not the best performances ever done
When a performance is that good, it's no wonder people still are learning it and enjoying it over half a century later. Done live on TV.
This song was popular when I was younger and I have always loved the way Bobby Hatfield sang it. This song is one of my favorites. Thanks.
You look like my sweet daughters age. This is my wife of 42 years song. I’m a retired Marine, was gone a lot, and had great reunions. I retired from the Marines, was seriously injured in Iraq and have Leukemia from the Camp Lejeune water. I have my wonderful wife, my son, my daughter and my grandsons, and I have the love of my family. This song brings it all together!
Bobby was unique, definitely one of a kind. His music was addictive, mesmerizing, soulful. He had a hauntingly beautiful sound that you didn't just hear, but felt. There will never be another like him. For me, he was the voice of the Righteous Brothers and you can listen to any one of his singles and just feel the emotion rolling off of him. Believe it or not, he could have been a pro baseball player, he was being scouted while in college but decided he wanted to create his music more. He was a real sports hero in school!!
There will never be another Bobby - BUT - Bucky Heard, now singing with Bill Medley is pretty damned close!
@@garyjones8428 I will take your word for it. I don 't listen to the "new" Righteous Brothers...
Britt, I ❤❤your reactions & commentary. The best & the best. Awesome, emotional, the range of the voice. Oh my gosh! Best & unique song sung, I have ever heard. A human angel! A voice that communicates with all human beings. ❤❤✝😇😇
This song was made for a (1955) prison movie titled 'Unchained.' Hence the title of the song. It was used as the soundtrack for the movie. It was composed by multi-Academy Award winning composer Alex North with lyrics by Hy Zaret. It was also used in the 1990 movie 'Ghost.' Ten years later in (1965) on the 'Andy Williams Show.' Bobby Hatfield of the 'Righteous Brothers gave a live performance that was one for the ages. His live performance of the classic 'Unchained Melody' is considered the standard for which every artist that has performed this classic song is measured by. It is also considered one of the greatest live performances in television history ever. May he rest in peace.
This video she was reviewing was from The Andy Williams Show.
He was the best I still love that song and I'm 76
One of the all time great live vocal performances.
Nobody else had that falsetto strength except probably Jackie Wilson. Amazing.
It's interesting that you mentioned his singing is humble because that is exactly what he was...a very humble man. And, yes, he's very handsome.
I have no doubt whatsoever that Bobby knew he was a "hottie." Women threw themselves at him wherever he went.
@@alkholos Humble doesn't mean denying reality.😀 He wasn't a braggart.
He is fabulous! He is from my era, feel lucky to have had so much wonderful music...where they could really sing (sang).
This song is still playing on jukeboxes all over the country ‼️‼️‼️ One of the coolest songs ever ‼️‼️‼️ The Righteous Brothers is their duet name 💓 The story is that where they were playing one night someone in the audience yelled out that's Righteous Brother and the name became the Righteous Brother 😅❤❤❤❤ It was the movie Ghost that was one of the songs of the movie ❤❤❤❤
His mom and dad were in the audience of this recording, and the little smile from him at the end where he bites his lower lip, is because he knew he nailed it. :)
You are one of the few (if any?) reaction reviewers who have noticed that when Bobby sings the first high note he does it all in one breath. Other reviewers are far more interested in how they come over to their audience rather than concentrating on the merits of the the singer, so well done to you.
Thank you!
@@brittreacts the other popular song (with both of them singing!) Is "You've lost that Loving Feeling" And it was featured in......... Dirty Dancing!!
@@stevetaylor2233 And the original Top Gun.
I watched about 20 reaction reviewers to find one that noticed the same thing... Britt is the only one I found... so yes well done for noticing that amazing and beautiful feature of Bobby's version
Tiny mic. No autotune. No flashing lights. No smoke and mirrors. Just. Pure. Talent. First time on your channel, by the way, and I'm already in love with you. Thanks for sharing.
This song, in THE RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS version, throws me straight towards "Ghost", a 1990 movie. His voice is also fantastic in the live version you are listening to now.
My husband has always said for years this is our song. An absolutely beautiful song and performed perfectly.
Bobby Hatfield had one of most flawless voices ever recorded.
Awesome reaction Britt!!!! Your reaction absolutely nailed it. Bobby was a once in a lifetime talent and the song was unbelievably beautiful.
Another hit song from The Righteous Brothers is You've lost that loving feeling. Give it a listen, I think you will enjoy it as well.
I just happened across your RUclips site. I really love your reaction. To me, this is still the best live vocal performance ever. The fact that he was sick during this performance is absolutely amazing. No tricks, no auto-tune, just vocal excellence.
There were a few others, but when I was a teen... everyone waited to hear these guys. Every girl wanted them, every guy wanted to be them.
Thanks for the memories.
Yeah, BABY!
This is a live version (and as others have said, is regarded by many as one of the best live vocal performances ever). For the studio version that became a massive hit (and the most played radio song of the 20th Century), Bobby and Bill flipped a coin because both wanted to sing it as their solo track on the album. Bobby won the coin toss and sang it, while Bill played the keyboards and acted as producer. In the studio, after Bobby sang a third take in which he changed to a higher register in the final verse, he said “Let’s do it again, I can do better” and Bill replied, “No, you can’t.” He knew a masterpiece when he heard it.
Twenty-five years later, when it was used to great effect in the movie “Ghost,” there was some licensing reason that they couldn’t put it out as a single again. So they just re-recorded it. The new single version climbed the charts alongside the original, and they became the first act to have two versions of the same song in the Billboard top twenty simultaneously. Amazing talent!
God gave Bobby the voice;Bobby did the rest ànd was soooo dàrn good.. RIP Bobby!
This song was written from the perspective of a man in prison, wondering if his love will be there when he is released. Hense the name "Unchained". Concidered by many as the best live TV performance ever! Loved your review!
Golden Pipes once you achieve that level in singing you can literally open the gates of heaven with vocals like that 😀😃🙂🙃😊😇
On that show, the singer's parents (his name is Bobby Hatfield) were present in the audience and it's reported that he was terribly nervous as he didn't want to disappoint them. This was indeed live with a live orchestra no auto tune. Pure talent.
IMO one of the most beautiful voices of all times💕🇦🇺
LIVE in 1965 on the Andy Williams Show. This is a Master Class on how to go from chest to head vice and to do amazing & tasteful runs. Oh, and NO auto tune! You probably recognize this song from the movie "ghost." I really enjoy your videos.
I've been listening to this song since 1964, and stil can't get enough of it. Bobby Hatfield was a tremendous talent, and so is Bill Medley.
Well Miss Britt, I just love your reaction to this video. It is one of the Alltime favorite love songs ever made. This song was made famous from the movie "Ghosts" but was originally from a movie called "Unchained" The rendition of this song from "Unchained" to "Ghosts" is vastly different. The singer is Bobby Hatfield of the Rightous Brothers. The other half of the Rightous Brothers was Bill Medley. Bob Hatfield passed away in 2003.
It was a great time to growup in the 1950's and 60's. The music was the best and will never be topped. It makes me so happy to see younger people like yourself enjoy this type of music. Thank you for sharing your reaction with all us old folks. God Bless.
Single greatest live performance in music history. ...
Peace....
Yes!
While this is also stunning, Queen at Live Aid would like to have a word.
I believe it to be a tie.
Singers back then had real singing ability, unlike singers today. Some people singing today have been lied to, telling them they can
sing when they can't.
2:07 Girl, hi! My first time here. I'm from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and I loved you! You are so authentic and funny! Nice job, and reaction! I listened this on my 90's, when I was a kid! Thanks! 🟢🟡
Top three vocal performances ever in my opinion:
1) Bridge Over Troubled Water by Art Garfunkel (Studio version from the album)
2) Unchained Melody (this live version) by Bobby Hatfield
3) The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face (studio) by Roberta Flack
Agree, but would add Haley Reinhardt “Creep”.
Elvis does bridge over troubled water the absolute best
Have a listen to this version of The first time I ever saw your face ruclips.net/video/TB_jcFax5kM/видео.html
Of the three you mentioned, the only one I was fortunate enough to see in concert was Roberta Flack. You know when an artist is good when their live performances are as good or better than their studio performances. Believe me when I say, "Ms. Flack was better in person." Her duet with Bobby Hathway of "I (Who Have Nothing) is absolutely wonderful.
I always loved Bobby Hathaway. His voice was so smooth. His renditions of classic songs became his after he sang them. The perfect example: is Leon Russell's "A Song For You". I would have given anything to see him in concert.
The best live vocal performance of all time. Bobby Hatfield was and will always be a vocal GOD. This song will be forever timeless.
The late great Bobby Hatfield, no one, and I mean no one, can sing that song like he does. Taken from us way before his time.
One of the greatest performances ever! Man could sing that song better than anyone
This song overwhelms me every time I hear it! I've never heard anyone ever do anything A song this amazing And this perfect! Enjoy young lady!
The movie in which this song was portrayed was “Ghost, News from Sam”.. and yes this song goes straight t9 the core of my heart. Love it
He would have won every singing contest on TV ever. What a voice.
You just don't let anything get by you, do you? I am so impressed with your ability to pick up details and express what you see and here in these reactions. Just a pleasure to watch and listen.
I just love your reaction to him, his voice is beyond
Now that is the best live vocal performance I've ever witnessed. Great reaction!!!
Yes, WoW! There will never be another Bobby Hatfield. Back in the day we just took that for granted and had no idea how incredible is vocals were. We just wanted a slow dance song, make out song, etc. But I know now how special he was and always will be.
Thank You for offering that contextual information for people. And I feel sad that Bobby Hatfield was underrated and didn't know that he would finally become appreciated for being all that he was, and is.
I love The Righteous Brothers, there voices are as beautiful as a baby's smile.
Almost 60 years old and still getting ladies to swoon. Bobby was the man and this is his song forever.
I am 72 now, but back then we (guys!) referred to this as "panty dropping music". Parking down by the lake with your girl, this song comes on the AM radio and we were off to the races!
Race responsibly.
That's funny man...
I was born the year this song came out and it was my wedding song 24 years later. My marriage didn't last but this song did. Righteous!
He didn’t break a sweat and came out cold. Absolutely no auto tune.
What's cool about the Righteous Brothers is they are the original Blue-Eyed Souls.
Arguably one of the best vocal performances ever. The sound and control is amazing.
Sweet, beautiful Bobby and his spectacular voice and soulful vocals. He was a great solo artist and dynamic as a duo with Bill Medley in Righteous Brothers. This was a live performance on the Andy Williams show and there are more clips of this encounter which will give you a clue on Bobby's personality. He was also a good dancer as we saw multiple times during Shindig performances. Check out some of his other solo performances like My Prayer and Summertime. He and Bill were inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame. Several well known cuts of theirs: You'll never walk alone, Soul and Inspiration, You've lost that loving feeling, Justine and so many more. PS: I have a Ken Doll and Bobby definitely was the inspiration for it lol. RIP Bobby Hatfield you are missed daily.
