    There's a live version of this from 1964 in which the guys are wearing tuxedos . . . and Bobby REALLY wails on the high part during that call and response portion near the end. The version you watched is really good. The other version is one for the ages. Simply incredible.

    This is one of the top 20 love songs of all time, BrittReacts. Rarely do tenor and baritone vocals mesh this perfectly.

    Hatfield and Medley had contrasting vocal ranges, which helped them create a distinctive sound as a duet.
    They each had the vocal talent to perform as soloists.
    Medley sang the low parts with his bass-baritone voice, with Hatfield taking the higher-register vocals with his tenor. Hatfield reached the register of a countertenor.

    Lots of people have noticed that similarity Britt. It is a very common bass progression. Also, there is another video of this song with a large number of back-up singers. One of them is a young lady trying to make a name for herself in music and starting as a back-up singer in studio and on stage. Her name is Cherilyn Sarkasian. You would know her better today as Cher!! Everybody started somewhere huh?!

    Ah, I knew you'd love this one! This song was featured in Top Gun (the original), where Tom Cruise sings it to pick up Kelly McGillis' character. And yes, that basic doo-wop beat was very popular in music at the time, and Grease definitely used it for Summer Lovin' (the song you were thinking of, I'm guessing).

One night EP came to his show and on his way out calmly walked across the stage, slapped him on the shoulder and off he and his group went. Audience went wild. Apparently Bill’s shows were sold out from there on, people thinking Elvis would appear again!😂 Bill said he was not complaining at all!

    Bill Medley, the baritone (lower voice) is still with us and will turn 83 in the fall. Sadly, Bobby Hatfield, the tenor, passed about 20 years ago. I saw them live a couple of times in the 1980s. They were magnificent, and a lot of singers and bands from the 1950s and 60s were doing "Oldies" tours in the '80s. Often several would appear on a single bill just as they did back in those earlier decades. The Brothers always sounded Righteous!

    According to BMI music publishing, "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" was played on American radio and television more times than any other song in the 20th century. It got over 8 million plays from the time it was released until 2000. Note that this includes all versions of the song, not just The Righteous Brothers'.

    The quintessential Righteous Brothers song. I think the word you're looking for is "restrained". It feels like he's holding back, and then when he belts out that first "Baby", it goes to a whole different energy. That common chord progression reminds me of a great video about how all pop songs use the same 4 chords. Three Aussie guys roll through like 50 songs, and it's amazing how they all use the same chords.

    The Grease song is "Summer Nights", this song is probably most famous for being used in Top Gun.

    Hello Britt, back in the 1960s I never thought of them as " Ken Dolls " but your description is accurate.

    Even though they both have totally different voices. You honestly can’t say one is better than the other. Such a great compliment of talent.

    Bill has a baritone voice and Bobby is a counter-tenor with an outrageous 5 octave range. He could freely hit the high C's with
    ease.
    You must check out Bobby's excellent, often copied but never ever duplicated, solo rendition of "Unchained Melody". Here's where Bobby shows you his range....it's not falsetto.
    ( react to the live video from The Andy Williams Show (1965. best quality). You must watch from the beginning where Andy Williams ( one of the best ballad singers of all times) introduces the Righteous Bros. and then interacts with them before Bobby sings and then watch the 3 of them sing together after Bobby's solo.
    These guys are young here, in their early 20's. Bobby had a cold and wasn't feeling his best. He was nervous because The Andy Williams Show ( a 1 hour variety show that came on once a week for several years) had a huge tv audience of well over 1 million per each show. And Bobbg's mother was in the audience....her first time seeing him perform live. ( She is the lady to the left in the blue dress)
    Unchanged Melody is the most coveted song ever with over 670 covers. It was a big hit in 1965 and then it got a second life when used in the movie Ghost, (the pottery scene and towards the end of the movie). It hit the top of the charts again and ensured that this is the quintessential love song.
    It was a song from a little known prison movie called "Unchained" from the1950's.and was recorded by a couple of people before Bobby. Al Hibblers version had been the most popular until Bobby Hatfield knocked it out of the park!
    Do yourself a favor after you watch the video from the Andy Williams show, and go back and listen to the record version. This is the version in the movie Ghost and it's fabulous. Bobby wanted to play around with it and show more of his vocal range on the Andy Williams show..
    Check out Bobby's solo of "Summertime" ( video)
    Bill's (almost solo) "I Just Want to Make Love to You."
    Bill also had a big hit song duet with Jennifer Warnes, "I Had The Time of My Life" from the movie Dirty Dancing...it's The song from the final dance scene with Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey.
    Righteous Bros.: "You'll Never Walk Alone"
    "Soul and Inspiration"
    "Rock and Roll Heaven"
    Check out Andy Williams:
    "Love is a Many Splendor Thing"
    "Moon River"
    "Love Story"

    Since the original stage show "Grease" came out in 1973 and the movie version 1978, I think this song from 1964 has priority and Summer Lovin' sounds like this song, not the other way around.

  • @paulschmidt1247

    The Righteous Brothers dropped this song way before grease came out, I believe this song originally came out in 1965.

    This videos quality not the best. The sound is too slow at first. The black and white video from 64 on a music show is much better. Huge fan of theirs since the start in 64. Glad yr reacting to their great songs.

    The song you're thinking of from Grease is Summer Lovin at the beginning of the movie.
