"Unchained Melody" is a 1955 song with music by Alex North and lyrics by Hy Zaret. It has become one of the most recorded songs of the 20th century, by some counts having spawned over 500 versions in hundreds of different languages.
In 1955, North used the music as a theme for the prison film Unchained, hence the name. Todd Duncan sang the vocals for the film soundtrack. The song was nominated for an Oscar in 1955, but the Best-Song award went to the hit song "Love Is a Many-Splendored Thing".
Les Baxter, released an instrumental version which reached #2. Then song recordings were released by Al Hibbler reaching #3 on the Billboard charts, Jimmy Young which hit #1 in the United Kingdom, and Roy Hamilton reaching #1 on the R&B Best Sellers list and #6 on the pop chart. Hundreds of other recordings followed. On June 21, 1977, just six weeks before his death, Elvis Presley performed "Unchained Melody" for what would be his last television appearance, "Elvis In Concert."
It was the July 1965 version by The Righteous Brothers that became a jukebox standard for the late 20th century, regaining massive popularity when used in the 1990 blockbuster film Ghost.

My dad sings this song at my aunt's wedding, Lauren did a great job singing that song.
This is one of Lauren Alaina best performance ever. This is when I came to love this song and it become so meaningful to me personally.
She deserves to win this whole entire thing. Go for it Lauren and don't stop until you get there, girl! :)
DANG THAT GIRL CAN SING!!!
i think this was great, she has such a beautiful and pure voice i don't know why everybody criticze her, she has an awesome voice
oh my 11 years has passed ❣️❣️
Freaking annoying people talking about notes. She sounded good. Such a beautiful voice and does such cool things with it. Classic but modern voice at same time.
Lauren Alaina for the win.. who wants agree with me.
Her voice is so amazing. I loved this song. (:
This Georgia gal can flat out sing.
She can belt it out as well as the great Brenda Lee.
It's amazing that Lauren actually holds back on some notes on this song.
Lauren, I'm really looking forward to all that great music you're going to be putting out.
Lauren Alaina you can FLAT OUT SING!!!
So sweet so kind .
Love the dress
Wow!! You're just amazing, Lauren!!
shes beautiful i love her voice absolutely great!
I do agree she pulled back. But she will grow as an artist.
It's so beautiful.
Beautiful voice
i love it when i look at comments and its like 2-3 pages of people talking together and they don't even make sense
Wow, that was actually amazing.
if THIS is a bad performance, then idk what the hell is considered a good performance on that show
She has amazing vocals. She didn't have to piano bar the "IIII". She has a gorgeous voice without trying to put more soul into this song than it needs.
you hear her speak, and she sounds like a little girl. you hear her sing, and she sounds like a woman. shes beautiful. she absolutely rocked this. im hoping for her and hayley in the finale.
in my opinion she is the woman who sang this song best (the others tried to change the rhythm too much)
Leann Rimes version of this song,(when she was 14,) puts everybody else in the shade.
How much I need your love
Pan con lo mismo. Ella debe ganar American Idol, es exacto lo que buscan y no, no es un halago.
Love 💘this thank 😊you for sharing this ❤
I watched this whole season so many times but never saw this, how the hell did i miss it?
she was great
Wow!! This is from American Idol? She does it better than Leann Rymes!!! Thumbs up if you agree!!
canta demais!!!! A melhor de todos os american idols, melhor de longe...faz nem esforço...devia fazer um dueto com a celine. Brazil is impressed with you lauren!
huhuhu!!! I'm so inlove with her. She's perfect. She had got the whole package to be the next American Idol. I love u so much Lauren Alaina. I'm ur number one avid fan from the philippines. I wish I can see u in the personal.
SO PRETTY!! LOVE HER!! SHE'S GUNNA WIN
She did AMAZING in my opinon , she just got caught up in the song because it is so touching towards her
she looked so gorgeous that night.... and it was an amazing performance
Beautiful
i love her, this was her third best performancs ,
Kudos to my friend Tony Bowls who designed that AMAZING gown that Lauren is wearing! And to eFashionCentral client The Prado Collection in Chattanooga that selected it especially for Lauren!
I did not watch when this was aired... I have since watched the top 10 to the winner.... amazing this, singer, made it to the end... Who decided she should make it to the top 2, someone long before the voting took place.
people have to understand that every person has a different capability on how high of a note they can hit. Lauren may not have hit it, but thats perfectly fine... she made the song her own, and that is what they are supposed to do! I know I can't hit that note, and i'm pretty sure that the people criticizing her about it can't either!
She sings perfect and is perfect!
she has a great future...!
Well this comment didn't age well did it
She sings like an angel...gl girl (Although I doubt you'll need it)
Wow...
I love her dress!
Sobrang galing i really admire you :)
Lauren is in it to win it! This week she gave a memorable performance of er, well I can't quite remember, but last week she the sang the unforgettable, uh, well it's hard to recall. The week before that she belted out the, wait, did she sing that week? Has she always been on the show?
one of the best love songs ever written,and i'm a teen in this crappy-music world.......
@seoulmanbobbybrown The reason why they give credit to the Righteous Brothers is because everyone that did a recording of this song had different versions of it. She chose to do the Righteous Brothers version of the song. That's why she gave them credit. Personally, I think the Righteous Brothers version is the best version.
@luisalfredovieira demais ne nao? To impressionada com a voz dela...a melhor na minha opiniao!
going up to high isn't her thing... but other than that her voice is refreshingly smooth and pure, very clean.
Goosebumps when she screams.
It's funny how people are leaving such negative comments simply because America chose Lauren to be in the top two instead of Haley. Don't get me wrong, Haley was an amazing vocalist. Better than those who was chosen to be in the finale, but America CHOSE them. lol. We all know that the ones who don't win get more exposure and are usually more successful than the winners anyway.
Alaina was aided by second rate judges who forgot how to criticise her, Haley certainly wasn't and had to suffer criticism for good if not great performances
Woww Muy Boniita!
You are beautiful Lauren ♥
im sorry to all you haters, but she did AMAZING on this song! and is 10 times the singer than haley is... her voice is pure and flows, haley screams and growls. she looks absolutely beautiful and sounds just as.. love lauren alaina
i hope she wins
Nice voice
@a30959 Thanks. I'd never heard that recording. Found it, and the link is now in my description.
@countrygal5618hnv shes a good singer and i like her Haley just has that jenesequa if that's how its spelled
My fave of hers :)
Ugh! Why was she so afraid to go for that high note? She could've easily done it. It's sad how someone so beautiful and talented could not believe in herself. Love you, LA!
Lauren: How did you get Brenda Lee's voice?
Your voice, Lauren, is beautiful. Be confident girl, your singing is really something.
this vid has REALLY good quality, bravo
it would be worth it to be on american idol, just to wear all these awesome clothes! her dress is...AH! so gorgeous.
her voice is gorgeous, too, of course
Oh, and her dress.
All of the people hating, I'd like to see yall do better.
@sky35hunt maybe she pulled back because she wanted to, she wanted to make it her own.. even though she did it was an outstanding performance... maybe she wasn't feeling too good and didn't want to embarrass herself.... who knows? but this girl has some amazing talent!
good!
ta porra! essa mulher ai canta demais vei...
She wasn't lucky, she worked every damn week for her spot. Like others did. She is very talented and deserved to be there, And apparently Hundreds of thousands thought so too. But The winner won for a reason.
@sky35hunt Oh, same here! Clay puts SO much in the way he sings, emotionally, mechanically... I could go on and on, but I won't. There's a limit to how many characters can be used! LOL Yeah, you're right! She blew the biggest note which is totally the highlight of the song. Couldn't have put it better myself!
id tear that shit up 16 or not.
@sky35hunt... i've been in the music business for a very long time... i know a true talent when I see one!
@sky35hunt Oh, I didn't realize she'd chosen it. It's been a while and I can't ever remember the episodes accurately after about a week or two. LOL I thought the judges chose that one. Either way, she still should've went for it! I think she could've pulled it off, personally! It's like... she started to, then she wimped out last minute, choosing a "breathy" conclusion to what would've been an amazing note. I was sooooo disappointed!
Her dress (:
her voice is beautiful ...better than Carries in many ways IMHO
@sky35hunt Nah, I think they're just gonna stick up for her regardless and that's to be expected. I don't think they voted on beauty alone, she does have a sweet personality and a very pretty voice and it's powerful! I loved her original audition! Showed her raw, natural talent and she wasn't afraid to just go for it after the pressure was off, so maybe that's all that happened here. I do think you're being a bit harsh though. She's gorgeous!
@a30959 LAREN rival isnt carrie underwood so dont compare her ..her rival is haley and scotty
Has anyone Realized that, yes this a competition but.....LAUREN AND HALEY ARE FRIENDS!!!! Gosh I wish people would realize that. They got along real well. Also the competition is over and Scotty is the idol. I do think that it should have been a Lauren/Haley Finale but its over. Get over it. You will hear albums from Lauren and Haley so its all good. Personally Lauren was my favorite but I can dig some Haley too LOL
I'm surprised the the producers allowed the video to go on the air with her giving credit to the Righteous Brothers. They didn't write the song nor were they the first to record it.
I love Laurens voice its amazing but ima a haley fan all the way! but even if lauren leaves the show her talent hasn't gone unnoticed someone will pick her up
@TheVideogamingPro It is your right to be deluded if you choose, nothing to fight about
@a30959 The cover or whatever carrie did on this song was iight. But nothing to compare to this version.
Nothing like the original.....
so laurenalaina4ever do you like lauren or not im confused
this is my future prom dress!
OMG. i loved alaina, she is beautiful and stunning. She made me feel in love. Those who dislike this video all I can say is "you're such a Loser". I hope and wish that she can win the next american idol. I love u ALAINA LAUREN.
i think this song is great but i like the song"always on my mind"-Scotty more
@sky35hunt On fearlessness alone, I'd have to agree. If you're gonna have a career singing, you can't be afraid to just GO FOR IT! Otherwise, you leave your audience feeling cheated. Clay was robbed though. He totally should've won that year!
@a30959 what are yu talking about lauren is the best on american idol!!
I have to disagree. Looking back at the past seasons, she's one of the youngest finalists and she kicked some bums during her time. Diana was also just 16 when she made the finale and ran-up but Lauren did way better than her. Yes she wasn't the best singer in her season, knowing that Pia, Jacob and Haley made the other contestants eat their dust but Lauren did just fine. And you don't compare a 16 year old girl from the 10-15 years of experience of the other contestants from all other seasons.
@sky35hunt Oh I love Clay's version! He's a real talent. I'm not hating on Lauren or anything. I do think she's a good singer, but after this, I did root more for Haley or Scotty. I rly wanted James to win, but they were all MASSIVELY talented regardless. Yeah, that note at 1:47 was the one I was talking about, too. Noone's perfect though and her die-hard fans should realize that, it's ok to be opinionated and say, "hey, she coulda done better". To say that artists are perfect is nuts!
@sky35hunt I'm well! And you? Don't pay attention to these teenagers making comments thinking that an artist can be perfect and do no wrong! You're totally right, and they live in a fairy tale world where magical unicorns fly and no one EVER makes mistakes! LOL
@sky35hunt Yup! I remember Jimmy saying she could pull it out so long as she wasn't afraid to try and he anticipated that she would be. In the end, she proved him right unfortunately. I think she could've done it, but I don't know why she was so afraid to just go for it! Yes, Clay is in a league all his own!!! Going strong at #6 on American Idol's top 10 successful contestants. Ruben, the winner that year (how IDK) is down there at 9 or 10 I can't remember which. That was injustice!
Toss up as to which is worse, this one or SuBo's on Dancing with the Stars
@spiritssearcher Sorry, I didn't realize I was debating w/a teenager. I don't typically do that because they're too immature to be open-minded and consider anyone else's opinions but their own. I won't debate w/you anymore, although I think your age group calls it arguing. In any case, I don't have the patience, so write all you want, I won't answer anything else you have to say. This serves me right! I should've never had a battle of wits with someone who was unarmed.
Damn.. Lauren so beautiful! She should've battled with Haley during the top 2! And she should've won over Scotty!
that girls voice brings tears to my eyes...she's awesome :)
I suspect that Haley would have hit this out of the park
@Vilverin1 oyu mad. she is perfek
lauren is really good, I'm a Haley fan... her range kept you on the edge of your seat... me at least.... besides having a splendid voice... but meanwhile, Lauren is far better than McCreery... shame i remember that name
