The duo of the Righteous Brothers are made up of Bobby Hatfield and Bill Medley. Only Bobby Hatfield sung Unchained Melody (which is a cover, and was sung by many other different performers before these two touched it) and Bill Medley didn't want to record his voice because he didn't think the song would be a hit. Little did he know it would become one of their greatest hits and considered the best rendition of the song ever performed. Ironically Bill Medley refusing to sing the song likely contributed to its success as it allowed Bobby Hatfield to use the full range of his voice without the need to harmonize with Bill's much deeper voice.
I was singing along to this when all of a sudden my dad burst in. I thought he was mad that I was playing my music too loud. Instead he was thrilled. This was the music of his youth, he said. We spent the afternoon mastering the harmony call back. Such an awesome bonding moment.
How do you know you made a good song? When 55 years later, it reaches people on the same emotional level that it did when you released it. This is a timeless classic. It has transcended generations and is still one of the most played songs in music history. If you're looking for 2 more great songs, I would try Soul & Inspiration as well as Georgia On My Mind. Unchained Melody was an agreed deal between the two. They would get to record a solo track on their albums. Both of them wanted to sing it, and it came down to a coin toss. Love your energy. Looking forward to seeing more.
Funny thing, as a male from New Zealand who grew up with this music it makes me laugh, both of them are not only incredibly smooth but they make my knees go weak as well lol
I have enjoyed watching reaction videos to "Unchained Melody" as well as "You've Lost That Loving Feeling". A lot of tonsils from all of the jaws hitting the table. Girls trying to catch their breath.
Years ago, before they were "discovered" they were booked into a black nightclub in the Watts area in Los Angeles. The owner of the club was really upset when he found out the "Righteous Brothers" were not black. They asked for the opportunity to just try us out first before saying no. When they went onstage, the crowd started booing and throwing things at them. They persisted anyway, and then the miracle happened! The crowd heard them and settled down to listen. At the end of their set, the crowd wouldn't let them leave, and wanted more! It was then that they earned the nickname "Blue-eyed Soul"
This was the "most played song on the radio in the entire 20th Century" according to BMI. It's great to see the young folks discover what I've known since I was a DJ and playing their hits in the 1960's. The Righteous Brothers were sensational, Amen!!
I'd STILL be that dude's woman for getting on his knees, even though he probably couldn't get back up without a lot of help. With a voice like that, I wouldn't care HOW old a dude was...right up there with Roy Orbison or Johny Cash.
@@davidwilliams6925 Women appreciate being wooed. They're flattered by a man making the effort, making the gesture, to show them how much they care. And a man getting down on his knees before his woman is surrendering his pride to show his devotion to her. Women rarely see or hear that anymore.
Hi I just wanted to say thank you for reintroducing me to music of my teens. I’m a 74 year old Scottish born Australian and when I watched your reaction to the Righteous Brothers I was delighted and remembered how great they were. I ordered a CD right away and am looking forward to rediscovering them. This was a good discovery as we have gone into a lockdown and can only leave home for essential reasons for six weeks. So thank you so much.
@@JohannesWOW they should have left auto-tune for what it was originally designed for. finding oil tables in sea beds. the history of it goes back further than music.
@@jameschio756 Getting tired of this generic response. There are plenty of extremely talents musicians out there, they just don't fall into your lap like chart topping music does. No need to drag politics into this discussion, it isn't relevant. We live in an age where practically every genre and subgenre has talented and committed artists contributing to the lexicon of music. RateYourMusic is a great resource to find these musicians, especially with the genre charts.
@@jameschio756 I don't know. Republicans are the ones that wine about silly stuff. Or make up stuff and say the left are crying about it when they aren't.
This was recorded before a live audience. It was a one time, do or die, fly or crash. There was no do over. What you did right there before the audience lived or died right there. The same with Unchained Melody.
I love the show. As a 70 year old baby boomer it ligjts up my heart when I see young people hear and appreciate great music. The Sixties will live on forever thanks to the music and people who are willing to experience the real thing. The young womans reaction brought me to tears.
Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield made up the righteous brothers. They each sang a song that highlighted their voice. The blonde Bobby Hatfield passed a few years ago. Bill Medley still performs in Las Vegas! All their performances were live.
In Vegas, it is still a duo. Bobby Hatfield died in 2003 and in 2016 Bill Medley decided to find a new partner, Bucky Heard, and continue tours until today. They are still fantastic shows and I highly recommend them to anyone who likes their music. Bucky Heard couldn’t have been a better substitute for Bobby Hatfield.
I was so fortunate to see them together before Bobby died. I just wish I had the chance to see them when they were young. I was born in 1950, so I was a teenager in the sixties. They were hugely famous through the sixties.
Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield make up the RightyBrothers. They each had Solo careers so don’t be confused. This song was the most played song of the 20th century. The 60’s has the real music.
I watch every reaction to this song just to see the looks on faces when they get to the back and forth part of the song... and Bobby takes his voice to the heavens.
You know you are old when you just assume that everyone has already heard this song. It's a joy to watch the younger generation discover all of this old music. I'd suggest watching the 'groovy' 60s live performance video of Dionne Warwick singing Walk On By.
Their vocal performances are so good, it's easy to overlook how good everything else is. The background singers, the percussion section is perfect, the brass section... the arrangement itself is a masterpiece. Not taking anything away from the Righteous Brothers, obviously.
Bobby Hatfield is the one you heard singing Unchained Melody by himself. He is the tenor. He passed away in 2003. Unchained Melody is in Ghost. Bill Medley is the taller baritone. You've Lost That Loving Feeling is in Top Gun and their song The Time Of My Life is in Dirty Dancing. Two amazing voices, who were influenced by Motown.
It's HILARIOUS watching the REACTION to performances I watched and loved (and still do of course) over a half century ago!! This was a time in music that was PURE and HONEST loaded with raw TALENT and NO AUTO-TUNE.... The way TRUE music was always meant to be. Your generation is just now waking up to the REAL DEAL... Great job, and love watching ur expressions!!
I never assume the race of a singer because I always felt talent does not have a color. So I’m always neutral even when I learn an artist true ethnicity.
I think Bill Medley, the deep baritone one, was heavily influenced by the the great black singers of the 50’s. Bobby Hatfield might say the same thing, but his voice range seemed to make him more of a standalone artist, but he also harmonized so greatly with Medley. Can’t believe that Bill is still performing and recording, albeit without Bobby who died back around 2003. I have been a big fan since 1965 when I was only in 7th grade.
@Bryan Wiley: We knew they were White. I remember watching them on television. My parents were big fans and had their records. You know, the 45 and 33 rpm records.
Jayy....you cracked me up when you said, "I do, I do!" lol Thanks for your reaction. Even though I have listened to this song hundreds of times, I always enjoy watching a reaction to it. Take care and be well.... Peace.
All songs are spot on ! Soul , harmony , talented pure clean voices , no AUTOTUNE !! Bobby made Unchained Melody his own , still owns it today . RIP Bobby , angelic concerts now 😇🥰
Girl. your video just made my day. I'm only in my early thirties but this is the music I grew up with, from my father, and I love watching other people appreciate the magic.
Loved your reaction, that's because they also do solos and it fit their voices some signs to do together some by themselves but there's is a music that stands the test of time I can see it in your eyes when you heard it you are about to cry so I know it grabs you and held you. People just don't sing like that anymore and the world is a sadder place because of it
They are called the Righteous Brothers. Sometimes they sing together, sometimes one or the other does a solo. Sometimes they used to flip a coin to decide which would do a solo song. They are both very talented singers and the control they have in their voices is amazing!!
Uh-huh, yeah girl, that's it, this is who we lost our hearts to sooo many years ago, and now you hear what we did. Their voices are in a whole other realm. So beautiful. So romantic. To this day their voices make me want to cry. Thank you. I am subscribing, and I am recommending your channel. I like the way you do things. You are real.
You know I’ve watched a few reaction vids and when they sing “ I’ll get down on my knees “ I see what it does to women . I’ll defiantly take that to heart and use it . Look out wimmins !
I’m so lucky to have been young when this beautiful music used to be played...so it’s been a real joy to watch your reaction and emotions as you heard it for the first time....we older people smile when we see how much equipment modern singers seem to have to use to get a record out these days...when watching them then..,they sang live, no miming just sang from the heart. Makes me wonder just how many modern songs will still be played in fifty years time? Really glad you took a step into the past, and discovered some true blue heart music, which is so rare these days. Bless you...keep listening to Golden Oldies...you will find real jewels 💎! 🙋♀️😘👏🏻👏🏻🥰💐☕️☕️💐💕
As an old fart who grew up listening to this music, it thrills me that you younger folks are discovering the amazing talent from that era. There was no autotune back then, no electronic correction; just a rudimentary reverb at very best. The recording equipment was not nearly the quality we have now, so what you just heard was pretty much what came out of those guys' mouths. Two amazing voices and boat loads of talent! I'm so happy you were touched by this wonderful music.
I remember my Mom playing Righteous brother's music everyday. I fell in love with this amazing duo as well !! Bobby Hatfield and Bill Medley had it all. 💙💛💙💛💙💛
Them doing Soul and Inspiration is even better, songs like this just aren’t made anymore. In groups back in the day it was common for someone to step up for a solo as was done for Unchained.
I am an old man and remember these songs the first time around. I believe their style of music was termed' Blue Eyed Soul'. Black people rather like them and some called out: 'you're righteous brothers'. Thus as the legend goes, that is how they got their name by black members of their audience. The reason why only one sung Unchained Melody was that they flipped a coin to decide who was going to sing it solo. Thank you so much for your reaction which I enjoyed. Bless x
“The Righteous Brothers” are considered by most to be the Greatest Male Vocal Duet Of All Time. I agree. Between Bill Medley’s Lows and Bobby Hatfield’s Highs they can hit every note on an 88 key piano. No other male singers can do that. Legendary. “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin” was the most played song on radio in the 20th Century. "Unchained Melody" - Bobby Hatfield Live 1965. Considered by most as The Greatest Live Male Vocal Performance In History... I agree. Bobby's use of "Runs" is brilliant. He is the master of the technique and started the trend. 7 notes just to say the word "I".... Their name came when they did a show in a smaller venue and a black man told them…. You two Brothers are Righteous. They created the sound and set the table that all Soul Music fed from for decades to come. In 1983, in Newport Beach O.C. Calif. Bill and Bobby at the Jolly Roger Restaurant . I was 13 feet away for... "Unchained Melody"- "You've Lost That Lovin’ Feelin‘" - "Soul And Inspiration".... They were perfect, awesome, amazing, incredible......
I was 11 when these guys first hit the charts in 1964 with their Blue-Eyed Soul. They originally had a different name until they did a gig for a bunch of soldiers. When they finished, as the story goes, a couple of black soldiers yelled at the stage over the applause "Man you brothers are Righteous!!! ". The name stuck. They were consummate performers and despite their distinctly divergent vocal ranges produced some of the best harmonies I've ever heard. As someone else pointed out this was back in the day of no digital effects...no autotune. These guys simply had talent on loan from God. Poor Bobby Hatfield (the blonde) also had really severe stage fright..prior to every performance he'd throw up, compose himself and get out to the audience and along with Bill, proceed to effortlessly deliver greatness There's other great songs to react to.. Soul and Inspiration, Ebb Tide, and one real bluesy rocker that gets overlooked on reactions: videos: I Just Want To Make Love To You.
The Righteous Brothers sometime performed separately but they do have several videos of them singing Unchained Melody together. You will have to search for it. Love watching your reaction to those songs. Honey, I'm 67 and grew up with those songs. I found you by accident and think you are precious! You are beautiful and have a beautiful smile.
I love seeing people get turned on to new songs! The Righteous Brothers are soooo talented. This is one of those timeless, classic songs that will be listened to by many different generations✨. Loving it❤️
"Oh, that started right away." Yes! We are immediately into the vocals, in fact, before the very first instrument. Another reviewer nailed it when he called this song "relentless" - instead of repeating the first verse, as we'd expect, it goes into a new tune and new lyrics. Then they add on the harmony... and keep driving forward. I really enjoyed watching your reaction, Jayy. You helped make this song fresh and new again.
The world will never see anything like the combination of Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield again. We were truly blessed to have been a part of beautiful music history that is/was the Righteous Brothers.
This is the type of song that makes us forget about all the troubles of the world. And for a brief moment, people of all walks of life can come together and put aside the hate that is so unnecessary. Props to THE JAYY SHOW for letting us into your world and showing us your reaction to this most perfect song.
Great reaction! You looked like I felt the first time I heard it in the 60s and every time I hear it. It’s great to watch another woman respond from the heart. ❤️☺️👍
Bill is 6’8-9” and Bobby was 6’4-5. My ex met Bill in Vegas in the late 60s. He stood to shake her hand and she swore she was looking at his belt buckle. She was 5’. I met him in Vegas in the late 90s and told him the story. He got a good laugh at it. A real nice guy and great voice.
The DYNAMIC DUO doesn't disappoint! Hard to believe Bill Medley is 81 still performing now with Bobby Heard. Bill had a solo hit Brown Eyed Woman in 68 with Blossoms with Darlene Love, incredible! She's a great singer also.
My love - you just heard greatness. So happy you enjoyed it. These 2 blue eyed soul brothers were as popular as the Temptations and almost Elvis( but not quite).😀I dated to these songs on the radio then. So romantic if the DJ played this song after you saw a movie together - while on your way to the beach for a nighttime walk on the waters edge. Hmmm. I can see the moonlight on the water now as my heart raced as we stepped up into an empty lifeguard stand.Those were the days.😀👍❤️
Never ever, ever....... will there be 2 guys that can sing & harmonize like The Righteous Brothers........no tricks, just God given talent! Just beautiful!!
Her comment "I want the Lovin; Feelin' back...if I lost it." HAHAHAHAH, I'm on the floor....you kill me...and I just turned 65...thanks for making me laugh...I needed it...

😁 love to hear stories like this
Their voices go together like peaches and cream absolutely wonderful
As an old woman, I love a young woman finding joy in these old recordings!
Same. I defy any woman, regardless of age or race, to not melt. Bill & Bobby had our number! 💘
It's nice to see a young lady loving music
They were the most talented duo of their time . Their songs will live on for generations.
Try the walker bros
How do you know you made a good song?
When 55 years later, it reaches people on the same emotional level that it did when you released it. This is a timeless classic. It has transcended generations and is still one of the most played songs in music history.
If you're looking for 2 more great songs, I would try Soul & Inspiration as well as Georgia On My Mind.
Unchained Melody was an agreed deal between the two. They would get to record a solo track on their albums. Both of them wanted to sing it, and it came down to a coin toss.
Love your energy. Looking forward to seeing more.
"You've lost that loving feeling" was the most played song on "radio" in the 20th century.
It also helps when Elvis Presley covers it...
they set the standards
the last 50 years has very little knowledge of what came before them
Sadly, Slayer never got around to making a cover.
I grew up in this era. We reacted the same way you are. The girls hearts were melting. It’s so fun watching your reaction. You are adorable!
Funny thing, as a male from New Zealand who grew up with this music it makes me laugh, both of them are not only incredibly smooth but they make my knees go weak as well lol
I have enjoyed watching reaction videos to "Unchained Melody" as well as "You've Lost That Loving Feeling". A lot of tonsils from all of the jaws hitting the table. Girls trying to catch their breath.
It wasn't their hearts that were melting😂😂
The moment when ya realize your grandparents were cooler than you.
Yep, and I'm still cool. Old, but cool! I'm a great Grandma.
@@orchidjewels4823 Same here, they were my generation and like Motown, timeless music it all was the best.
And they aren't nearly as old as you thought. I've been amazed at how young my parents and grandparents got as I got older.
There are two in the group, the first one was a solo
There are two in the group, the first one was a solo

@@mortym2982 They are truly righteous!
Sounds like the "Buddy Holly Story" - throughout history, we've been hampered by race and prejudiced assumptions!

“Baby I’ll get down on my knees for you.” Every woman in the world *YES PLEASE*
Every woman smiles at that part! May seem like a foolish question, but why?
@Celtic Revival / Adfywiad Celtaidd thanks, that does make VERY good sense!

YOU ARE SO RIGHT JOHN I GREW UP ON THIS KIND OF MUSIC AND I AM STILL PLAYING THIS MUSIC TODAY
Absolutely! I grew up during this era to. My early years. I miss soul music. The music does something to you. Wish we still had it. 💖💖💖
It did when it was time to paid.

No auto tuning there. The days when they actually sang.
@@JohannesWOW

Yes let's not forget bill mel'dy and Jennifer warnes singing I had the time ofmy life at the end of the movie dirty dancing

This was considered "blue eyed soul!" These guys were two of the absolute best vocalists you'll ever hear!!❤🎶❤

That's the best Motown soul hands down.

"I do, I do!" Lol had me rolling 😆

This is the most played song, radio and tv of the 20th century.
This is the top of the top.
Their vocal performances are so good, it's easy to overlook how good everything else is. The background singers, the percussion section is perfect, the brass section... the arrangement itself is a masterpiece. Not taking anything away from the Righteous Brothers, obviously.
A young Cher is one of the backing singers here.
They really are an emotional roller coaster. Love the blue eyed soul.
Bobby Hatfield is the one you heard singing Unchained Melody by himself. He is the tenor. He passed away in 2003. Unchained Melody is in Ghost. Bill Medley is the taller baritone. You've Lost That Loving Feeling is in Top Gun and their song The Time Of My Life is in Dirty Dancing.
Two amazing voices, who were influenced by Motown.
kek Medley?
That has to be the most perfect surname for a singer I've ever heard 😂
Time of my life was a duet of Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes for Dirty Dancing
Bill Medley is still touring today as the Righteous Brothers with Bucky Heard who replaced Bobby Hatfield after he passed. Great show!
Definitely influenced by Motown and also influenced many Motown artists in turn.
And now you know why they were one of my favorite groups! Just love them.
It's HILARIOUS watching the REACTION to performances I watched and loved (and still do of course) over a half century ago!!

Dude, no auto tune, but it was still a typical reverb and echo chamber distorted Phil Spector "Wall of Sound" production.
I am laughing, for starters I was a kid when this song came out. A lot of Blacks did not know they were White. Fast forward, her reaction is normal.
I never assume the race of a singer because I always felt talent does not have a color. So I’m always neutral even when I learn an artist true ethnicity.
Hahaha I was 1 when this song came out

I believe they intensionally kept Bobby and Bill in the dark to keep people guessing! A lot of people were surprised Janis Joplin was white
@Bryan Wiley: We knew they were White. I remember watching them on television. My parents were big fans and had their records. You know, the 45 and 33 rpm records.

I love your reactions .. it's always nice to see a young person "get" what us old folks have loved for years !
Girl. your video just made my day. I'm only in my early thirties but this is the music I grew up with, from my father, and I love watching other people appreciate the magic.
Timeless classic- still has the same emotional impact and vibes even after 55 years!
This duo grabs you by the soul... and their vocal range is awesome i grew up listening to them. My mom loved their music
This music is responsible for the birth of multitudes of baby's.Back in the day,often referred to as panty dropping music😄
Just ask Tom Cruise
One of my mothers favorites
😄😄
Well, it was releesed in 1965, and I was born in 1966, so who knows, maby I am one of those babies.
Haven't heard that phrase in a few years!!! Lol
“Un-frikn’ believable”, Sweet Lady, that’s EXACTLY the Reaction, they were looking for. spot on my dear.
Loved your reaction, that's because they also do solos and it fit their voices some signs to do together some by themselves but there's is a music that stands the test of time I can see it in your eyes when you heard it you are about to cry so I know it grabs you and held you. People just don't sing like that anymore and the world is a sadder place because of it
I want to hear a solo by bill next then
These two were awesome. I'm 73 yrs old and I never get tired listening to them. I play their CD in my car. Good memories!!!❤❤❤
They are called the Righteous Brothers. Sometimes they sing together, sometimes one or the other does a solo. Sometimes they used to flip a coin to decide which would do a solo song. They are both very talented singers and the control they have in their voices is amazing!!
I loved the humble, sincere look on these men’s faces while singing this.❤️
They created Phil Spector's wall of sound with there voices.
I LOVE bass and baritone singers. Something about those deep voices that you feel in your bones.
I love your reaction to this I was in my teens at the time this was released, pure soul music.
Uh-huh, yeah girl, that's it, this is who we lost our hearts to sooo many years ago, and now you hear what we did. Their voices are in a whole other realm. So beautiful. So romantic. To this day their voices make me want to cry. Thank you. I am subscribing, and I am recommending your channel. I like the way you do things. You are real.
You know I’ve watched a few reaction vids and when they sing “ I’ll get down on my knees “ I see what it does to women . I’ll defiantly take that to heart and use it . Look out wimmins !
😂😂 YOu got this Alan ✊🏽
THEJAYYSHOW yeah , take the hint brother .
I’m so lucky to have been young when this beautiful music used to be played...so it’s been a real joy to watch your reaction and emotions as you heard it for the first time....we older people smile when we see how much equipment modern singers seem to have to use to get a record out these days...when watching them then..,they sang live, no miming just sang from the heart.
Makes me wonder just how many modern songs will still be played in fifty years time? Really glad you took a step into the past, and discovered some true blue heart music, which is so rare these days. Bless you...keep listening to Golden Oldies...you will find real jewels 💎! 🙋♀️😘👏🏻👏🏻🥰💐☕️☕️💐💕
As an old fart who grew up listening to this music, it thrills me that you younger folks are discovering the amazing talent from that era. There was no autotune back then, no electronic correction; just a rudimentary reverb at very best. The recording equipment was not nearly the quality we have now, so what you just heard was pretty much what came out of those guys' mouths. Two amazing voices and boat loads of talent! I'm so happy you were touched by this wonderful music.
That’s too much talent in one room! My generation can’t understand this level of talent ✊🏾
I remember my Mom playing Righteous brother's music everyday. I fell in love with this amazing duo as well !!
Bobby Hatfield and Bill Medley had it all.
💙💛💙💛💙💛
Probably the most talented duo and 2 of the best voices of all time so underrated
Them doing Soul and Inspiration is even better, songs like this just aren’t made anymore. In groups back in the day it was common for someone to step up for a solo as was done for Unchained.
I am an old man and remember these songs the first time around. I believe their style of music was termed' Blue Eyed Soul'. Black people rather like them and some called out: 'you're righteous brothers'. Thus as the legend goes, that is how they got their name by black members of their audience. The reason why only one sung Unchained Melody was that they flipped a coin to decide who was going to sing it solo. Thank you so much for your reaction which I enjoyed. Bless x
I never get tired of this song, one of my all-time favorites. Your reaction was great!
Goosebumps! 🥰🥰
56 years ago, legends in the making made songs that would last forever.
“The Righteous Brothers” are considered by most to be the Greatest Male Vocal Duet Of All Time. I agree. Between Bill Medley’s Lows and Bobby Hatfield’s Highs they can hit every note on an 88 key piano. No other male singers can do that. Legendary.
“You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin” was the most played song on radio in the 20th Century.
"Unchained Melody" - Bobby Hatfield Live 1965. Considered by most as The Greatest Live Male Vocal Performance In History... I agree. Bobby's use of "Runs" is brilliant. He is the master of the technique and started the trend. 7 notes just to say the word "I".... Their name came when they did a show in a smaller venue and a black man told them…. You two Brothers are Righteous. They created the sound and set the table that all Soul Music fed from for decades to come.
In 1983, in Newport Beach O.C. Calif. Bill and Bobby at the Jolly Roger Restaurant . I was 13 feet away for... "Unchained Melody"- "You've Lost That Lovin’ Feelin‘" - "Soul And Inspiration".... They were perfect, awesome, amazing, incredible......
Those two dude have more soul than a Nike tennis shoe!
Love that analogy😁
Young people discovering good old music, priceless reaction.
Yes kids there is a lot more of that , listen and enjoy.
They sing live, no auto tune, no naked. Just pure talent.
you have the best reaction i've seen to this beautiful classic track.
I was 11 when these guys first hit the charts in 1964 with their Blue-Eyed Soul. They originally had a different name until they did a gig for a bunch of soldiers. When they finished, as the story goes, a couple of black soldiers yelled at the stage over the applause "Man you brothers are Righteous!!! ". The name stuck.
They were consummate performers and despite their distinctly divergent vocal ranges produced some of the best harmonies I've ever heard. As someone else pointed out this was back in the day of no digital effects...no autotune. These guys simply had talent on loan from God.
Poor Bobby Hatfield (the blonde) also had really severe stage fright..prior to every performance he'd throw up, compose himself and get out to the audience and along with Bill, proceed to effortlessly deliver greatness
There's other great songs to react to..
Soul and Inspiration, Ebb Tide, and one real bluesy rocker that gets overlooked on reactions: videos: I Just Want To Make Love To You.
They were known as The Paramours until the marines christened them with the name Righteous Brothers.
The Righteous Brothers sometime performed separately but they do have several videos of them singing Unchained Melody together. You will have to search for it. Love watching your reaction to those songs. Honey, I'm 67 and grew up with those songs. I found you by accident and think you are precious! You are beautiful and have a beautiful smile.
AAAND
Welcome to real music. With a message, no auto-tune, and real talent.
I love seeing people get turned on to new songs! The Righteous Brothers are soooo talented. This is one of those timeless, classic songs that will be listened to by many different generations✨. Loving it❤️
"Oh, that started right away." Yes! We are immediately into the vocals, in fact, before the very first instrument. Another reviewer nailed it when he called this song "relentless" - instead of repeating the first verse, as we'd expect, it goes into a new tune and new lyrics. Then they add on the harmony... and keep driving forward. I really enjoyed watching your reaction, Jayy. You helped make this song fresh and new again.
I was hoping you would eventually listen to them together...I knew you’d love their amazing harmony as well as their outstanding individual voices.
You started fannin yourself, priceless!
The world will never see anything like the combination of Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield again. We were truly blessed to have been a part of beautiful music history that is/was the Righteous Brothers.
They were given their name by black fans. They shouted out to them “you righteous brothers”
Oh my goodness it is so fun watching you younger kids listening to our music and liking it!!! Love you. Responses dear!!😜😀💝😀😜
““You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling” was the most-played song of the century on American radio, getting over eight million spins.
This is the type of song that makes us forget about all the troubles of the world. And for a brief moment, people of all walks of life can come together and put aside the hate that is so unnecessary. Props to THE JAYY SHOW for letting us into your world and showing us your reaction to this most perfect song.
Love watching you on this. Reminds me of taking a good friend to Disneyland, who has never been before. This song gets you right in the heart, right?
OMG I just love your Righteous Brothers reactions LOL. You kill me
Your "I DO, I DO!!" took me alll the way out lmaoooo
Rumour has it that they tossed a coin to see who would sing Unchained Melody and Bobby got it.
@@wilfbentley6738 Bill Medley has an AMAZING voice, but I don't think it would have fit for Unchained Melody. I'm glad he lost lol
Great reaction! You looked like I felt the first time I heard it in the 60s and every time I hear it. It’s great to watch another woman respond from the heart. ❤️☺️👍
Bill Medley (the one with deep voice) sang the song "I had the time of my life" from the movie Dirty Dancing.
You did good. I had to laugh cause everytime Bobby came in your eyes went wide, your face lit up and you smiled. And fanning your face cracks me up.
This was when music was art! Greatness doesn't need enhancememt!#!
" I do i do" Brilliant. You are sooo good.
bill medley is the taller guy in the video, here he is some years later ------Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes. The Time Of My Life
he also looks like another famous bill.
Here's the song as it was used in the final scene of the movie "Dirty Dancing" -- th-cam.com/video/WpmILPAcRQo/w-d-xo.html
Bill is 6’8-9” and Bobby was 6’4-5. My ex met Bill in Vegas in the late 60s. He stood to shake her hand and she swore she was looking at his belt buckle. She was 5’. I met him in Vegas in the late 90s and told him the story. He got a good laugh at it. A real nice guy and great voice.
The DYNAMIC DUO doesn't disappoint! Hard to believe Bill Medley is 81 still performing now with Bobby Heard. Bill had a solo hit Brown Eyed Woman in 68 with Blossoms with Darlene Love, incredible! She's a great singer also.
My love - you just heard greatness. So happy you enjoyed it. These 2 blue eyed soul brothers were as popular as the Temptations and almost Elvis( but not quite).😀I dated to these songs on the radio then. So romantic if the DJ played this song after you saw a movie together - while on your way to the beach for a nighttime walk on the waters edge. Hmmm. I can see the moonlight on the water now as my heart raced as we stepped up into an empty lifeguard stand.Those were the days.😀👍❤️
1965, No Autotune, just talent
Having grown up with this level of artistry you mau better understand our disappointment with what passes for music today
Singers started using autotune as a crutch in the 90s and it has just gotten worse since.
Never ever, ever....... will there be 2 guys that can sing & harmonize like The Righteous Brothers........no tricks, just God given talent! Just beautiful!!
Imagine if Sam Cooke joined them for a duet! Would shake the whole world
Thank you so much for doing this video, The Righteous Brothers were before my time but I loved their songs. And I reacted to them the same as you.
I feel the same way every time I hear this
Her comment "I want the Lovin; Feelin' back...if I lost it." HAHAHAHAH, I'm on the floor....you kill me...and I just turned 65...thanks for making me laugh...I needed it...
04:04 😆😂🤣
Righteous Brothers “If you would only love me like you used to do”
TheJayyShow “I do, I do”
Aww your reaction made me happy. Sharing music I still listen to with a much younger generation is interesting.
If only the rappers would change their ways,they would have real loving women after them.
They sing together and they sing solos. They are best in harmony.
"I' m so sad this ended". Classic line. It is that good of a song.
And when it came out, DJs thought it was "too long" because most songs were only 3 minutes or less.
Bobby sang Unchained Melody solo.
