Man, this song was done, LIVE, in 1965, on the Andy Williams Television show, before a live audience. The live Orchestra was in the background. There were no special effects, no boosters of any kind, just a small microphone and a huge voice. There was no one could sing this song like Bobby Hatfield.
You need to do a reaction on For Your Precious Love by Jerry Butler and the Impressions. I believe it came out I the mid 1950s. By the way, Bobby Hatfield's live performance of Unchained Melody was absolutely STELLAR! It absolutely pierces my HEART and SOUL! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
If you listen to this song and think of someone in prison, it takes on a whole different meaning. That is what the song was about. Someone stuck in prison and missing the love of his life. Listen to it one more time and apply the lyrics to that situation.
Just a mention for the superb accompaniment from Andy Williams orchestra They were also superb following Bobby's performance, you knew something big was coming just by the change in their intensity. Amazing.
This amazing performance by Bobby Hatfield was on The Andy Williams Show in 1965. You may have heard the song in the movie Ghost (the pottery scene), but this live performance is so much better than the recording. Bobby's beautiful voice, amazing vocal range and artistry combine to make this one of the best live vocal performances I've ever heard. (I'm almost 70 and have heard a lot of live performances.) Bobby and Bill Medley were the Righteous Brothers (not really brothers, though). To hear both and their great harmonies check out You've Lost That Loving Feeling.
Bobby Hatfield was amazing tenor. Live performance on the Andy Williams show, 1965. Love your reaction. Bill Medley, baritone, is the other half of the Righteous Brothers. The greatest duo in the 20th century or any century. They don't make 'em like that any more!
lol, elvis ofcourse became a fan when he finally recognized Bobby could blow him right off stage. And that's after he threw a magnum 357 at the telly (the somany) smashing it to smittereens yelling 'that whitey there just overtook my stage !' while clucking some more pills into his throat to sleep it all off wanting to forget..that he THOUGHT he owned it..while Bobby KNEW he did. Lol.
Not sure if anyone gives a shit but if you guys are stoned like me atm then you can watch all the new movies and series on Instaflixxer. Been watching with my girlfriend during the lockdown xD
This song was written in 1955 for the obscure prison film, "Unchained". It was a "Top 10" hit for Al Hibbler when he recorded the song. The Righteous Brothers recorded it in 1965, and made the song their own. "Unchained Melody" is one of the most covered songs worldwide in the history of the recording industry.
I'm a fan of 80's music but nothing this good came out of the 80's. Over production and pomposity killed music. This simple orchestration and complete vocal talent wins every generation over. The irony is that it's not that today's artists couldn't do something like this... they just don't.
You hit the nail on the head.One thing I think a lot of young reactors don't necessarily pick up on is the fact that this music was meant to be slow danced to.
@@louise3088 Ah yes... that's why live music was thriving in clubs too... the girls went to hear live music and dance... the guys went to hear l live music and to get a chance to dance closely with a girl. God, I miss that innocence.
This was a live performance on the Andy Williams show there was no do overs just his voice and a small microphone. THIS he did solo.The other brother was there but they both did solos performances in their careers. Bobby Hatfield owns this song no one can touch his performance it was sheer perfection. Artists before him and after him have done this song but no one will ever do this song better than him. He had a voice from the heavens above Many fell in love to this song and with him ❤. Bobby was the tenor voice and Bill Melody was the baritone voice they shouldn't have blended together but they did and it was pure magic.
I fall in love with Bobby each time I hear/see him sing this song. Pure talent,heart and soul. RIP Bobby Hatfield you are missed more than you will ever know.
Help me out in the comments please! They sang ROCK AND ROLL HEAVEN which pays homage to those singers we've lost back then. It doesn't get nearly enough reaction time because of their other songs. Features both singers well!
One of my fav duo performers. Have you ever seen Patrick Dwayne and Demi Moore with Whoopie Goldberg in 'Ghost'? It's a great movie from the '90"s. This song from the Righteous Brothers is played in this movie. Be warned the movie's a tearjerker. Great Reaction. Thanks.😍😘🎈
His name is Bobby Hatfield ( he is one half of the Righteous Brothers, the other one is Bill Medley) They are not brothers.They are featured together on a song titled " You've List That Loving Feeling".The most played song on the radio back In the early 60's.Can you please react to a very awesome love song titled " You Made Me Feel Brand New" by The Stylistics. Thanks.👍👍👏
Actually,this was 1965.I am old and even I wasn't born yet.This song can make any man get lucky no matter how ugly he is,but if he looks like our beloved Bobby Hatfield,,,,he could have taken anybody home that night
No Autotune just pure vocal. 1950s n 1960's they were popular. I grew up with them n also was friends with Bill Medley baritone. This is Bobby Hatfield tenor n most women can't hit the high notes Bobby did. Bobby died few years ago but Bill is still singing. React to their popular songs You've Lost That Loving Feeling n Soul n Inspiration "Love your reaction n I will continue to listen
This came out in 1965. You're right, they don't do songs like this anymore. The singer is Bobby Hatfield. The other brother is Bill Medley. They usually sing together but Bobby did this one solo. They aren't related. They chose the name "Righteous Brothers" because someone from the crowd yelled out "that's righteous brother" and they used it.
NO ... NOT A SONG OF THE 80s!! This was sung LIVE in 1965 .. no auto-tune, no naked dancers, no smoke or mirrors ... just pure raw talent and blue-eyed soul ... Bobby had an amazing range of four octaves! To find out how they got their name, watch this full performance in the Andy Williams Show ... ruclips.net/video/FZZqf3AVJbE/видео.html ... enjoy! Righteous Brothers are two guys who are not actually brothers, they are a duo. But this is a solo song so they flipped a coin to see who would sing it .. this is Bobby Hatfield, and the other member of the duo was Bill Medley who arranged the music for this performance .. and he did so well with that, building up the music to the passionate end, so credit to Bill Medley too .. I also read that Bill Medley played the piano in the background for this song, and that Bobby sang this song while suffering from a head cold! This performance was done live, (with no auto-tune or other devices used by today’s musicians) and was better than the recorded studio version. Bobby suffered from stage fright and was particularly nervous in this performance because his parents were in the audience... you can see him bite his lip then grin at the end because he knew he nailed it!
This song was recorded in 1965. The original was in a movie sometime in the 50’s. It was about a man in prison wondering if his girl was waiting for him. The movie was called “Unchained”.
This song w as done in 1965. the reason I know I was born in 1949 and on the Andy Williams TV. Show and the big cover song and played in the 20 century
I watched this live in 1965 on The Andy Williams Show, I was 16 at the time. Still have their singles on 45 vinyl and all their albums on 78 Vinyl. Still one of my favorites duos of the 60s.
Unchained Melody. It’s from 1965 and was originally written for a movie from 1950 called “Unchained,” about a guy in prison.torn between the need to finish his prison sentence and returning home to his family. It’s been done by many artists but none like Bobby Hatfield who died in 2003 from cocain use right before a performance. This is the kind of song that makes you want to grab your woman in your arms and dance to it. Lights low, phone off!
This was done about 1965 and was when there was nothing but a live orchestra or band. No modern hoopla was used. It was just a normal mike and only his voice (no echo or added effects) and he did it all. They did it on talent only and no extra gizmos.
this was around the sixties and seventies ,, and you can hear the violins orchestras in the back ground ,,I grew up with that kind of serenades and love melodies ,, any girls would get swept away ,, ,, such hypnotic love songs ,, just beautiful, and they don't make classy music like that anymore ,, what a pity ,, that's when men use to sing to women's hearts ,, not their asses , anyway ,, they were great ,, still remember those days ,, it's about love , not just about sex ,, beautiful , and enchanting ,, gone are the good old days ,, were men would go out of their way to make girls happy and move them ,
What happened that night? What did that audience do to deserve that performance? How did Bobby,a great singer already,reach that plateau? One that has ever been reached in anyone’s live act? I don’t know,I’m just glad I was around to hear it
Bobby Hatfield made it look so easy! That man was so talented and he sang this Live! He's panty dropper...just has to start singing! lol. This was in the 60's!!!
This song was done in 1965 so a lot of years before you thought. In these days that we have more sexuality in music, it isn't about love but lust. Bobby Hatfield had a way of just loving a women through his voice to relate true love to someone he cared about. It is a real shame that most of the music isn't pretty just junk.
May I make a suggestion? An original song by the A Capella Group Home Free that is billed mostly as a Christmas song because that's when it came out. The name of the song is Snow Globe. Listen to the lyrics. I think romantic songs are making a comeback outside of country music.
I am going right now to correct a lie, that Bobby died of a drug overdose. He did NOT! Bobby had a severe heart problem, undiagnosed until his death. His arteries were 95pct blocked to his heart. That evening he and Bill flew in from California. He said that Bobby looked 'chalky." and didn't feel well, would go to his room and have dinner. His last words to Bill were, "Yeah, !'ll see you later, Beany. He went to his room and died. No drugs found. He was in his bed with the tv remote in his hand.
It was 1965...There were 2 Righteous Brothers....Bobby Hatfield (who sang the song) and Bill Medley-they weren't related at all this was just their "stage name (2-some) group. Bill didn't want to record this song....Bobby did. It became a huge hit!!! Bobby got all the royalties (pay outs $$) and Bill got none....Hence, every time Bobby sang this song on stage...Bill would leave the stage until Bobby had finished. Bobby and Bill had really 'no hard feelings' about this. True story.... Bobby died in 2003 of a drug overdose-sad to say. Hope this helps. PS: this group was a huge hit world-wide.
Both wanted to record the song for the album & they tossed a quarter to determine who got to do it Bobby won but Bill produced because Spector didn't think it would be a hit. When it became popular & they had to repress the record Spector had his name on it.
No dancing, no lights, no Auto-Tune... Just pure talent. RIP BOBBY
One of the best LIVE performances of All Time, imo.
If not The best live performance of all time. I'm open for suggestions.
@@gregengel1616 Elvis..if I can dream 68 special

Thank u Mary.. I will check it out
It was done in 1965 by Bobby Hatfield. He didn't just sing this song.
He caressed every note.
"the vocals were great..." as a casual aside.
Live, no autotune, kinda an understatement
Bobby Hatfield was amazing tenor. Live performance on the Andy Williams show, 1965. Love your reaction. Bill Medley, baritone, is the other half of the Righteous Brothers. The greatest duo in the 20th century or any century. They don't make 'em like that any more!
Makes me feel ethereal, floating through the air.
Elvis also covered this song, but he himself was a big fan of the Righteous Brothers. Personally I think Bobby's version is the best
lol, elvis ofcourse became a fan when he finally recognized Bobby could blow him right off stage. And that's after he threw a magnum 357 at the telly (the somany) smashing it to smittereens yelling 'that whitey there just overtook my stage !' while clucking some more pills into his throat to sleep it all off wanting to forget..that he THOUGHT he owned it..while Bobby KNEW he did. Lol.
Loved Elvis but Bobby nailed this one!

I'm almost 64 years old and I am still speechless with bobby Garfield's vocals, trying to do a rendition on my guitar
Bobby Hatfield not Garfield. The best ever live performance. None better though many have their own versions. RIP Bobby. We miss you
You mean Hatfield not Garfield

I’m going to have to disagree with you. I think a vast majority of “artists” today could not perform at this level.
I love his version the best

I remember watching this on the Andy Williams show.I was 14 years old.
He didn't know that his mom was going to be in the audience! He was so worried that he wouldn't be able to nail it. I'd say he did. What do you think?
The reactions to the Righteous Brothers is totally priceless
The # 1 song in this nation
This was a live concert in 1965.
