One man, one mic, one take, LIVE... 100% talent.
Amen to that 🙏
If you will allow me to add to that.... no auto-tune.
Exactly!!! Real artists!!!!
That suit is fire 🔥
Don't wanna be that guy but let's also acknowledge the orchestra in the background. The music is amazing. But yeah, he really has an incredible voice and the skill to use it.
Never duplicated and never will be
Arguably the most beautiful live solo performance of all time... The audience didn't realise at the time that they were witnessing perfection... Don't forget that this was raw talent, no technological help, no auto correction, just a God given talent 👌
The audience isn't jamming out. They're quiet because they're mesmerized. It makes sense. They're listening in awe.
This was on The Andy Williams Show, which tended to appeal to an older audience, generally speaking, than what you would see at an R&B or Rock concert.
In the 60's audiences generally listened carefully to the singer. He's standing stationary in a TV studio. There are no distractions from his beautiful voice.
I agree, they were mesmerized.
You couldn't tell, but Bobby was very nervous as his mother was in the audience that night and this was a live performance. He knew that he nailed it as evidenced by the lip bite at the end. The notes he hit in the end couldn't be reached by most male singers. Many, many babies were born 9 months after after this performance. This is what we called, "Baby making music."
Countertenor. Probably could sing Jazz too (listen to his version of Summertime?) and also Opera if he'd trained. Taht voice was a blessed voice that very very few people are gifted with. True gift from heaven.
I am amazed at the comments so much knowledge! I am old enough to have been there with my mother. I felt history was made. Thank you for your comment.
He has a cold, too.
What grown man "bites his lip" in front of people?
@@travelinman482The grown man who knows his worth and talent. Something you wouldn't know.
What’s so sweet is that he was really nervous bc his parents were in the audience! He knew he nailed it in the end.
I believe it was his birthday as well.
The biting his lip was to try to hide a " I killed it smile", because he knew that was the best you can do that song. 56 years later, it's still the best u can do that song. Like Ray Charles studio cut of " I Can't Stop Loving You".... I just bow , cause I know I'm in the presence of greatness with either of those two...
@@petej3800 His birthday is in August; this performance was in October.
Maybe the special thing was that he had never performed in front of his mom but he also just caught a cold! Either way so amazing!
@@Aurora-tp3dy This was a Valentine’s Day special on the Andy Williams show - hence the pink suits worn by the righteous Brothers and Andy’s own pink shirt in the longer clip of this performance
Every woman who hears this MELTS, no exceptions.
I think that particular woman was too busy caring about her own over-the-top "performance" to really care about Hatfield.
It was said that when Bobby sang this, the sound of panties hitting the floor could be heard in the audience.
@@SCharlesDennicon
you clearly havent paid attention to the video. smh
State Law!
@@YerPope lol
1965 live, no auto tune, one take, no redo's if you mess up. Bobby Hatfield was a gift from God, one of the greatest singers of all time. There will never be another like him
Audiences back in the 60's were very quiet, both out of respect for the singers but also because they didn't want to miss a note. This song has been covered more than almost any other and has been a hit for at least 8 artists, but this is the definitive version in my opinion.
The audience members behind him were instructed to not make noise or movement to avoid distractions for the TV audience. Standard rules at the time.
Bobby Hatfield was a countertenor who had a 4 1/2 octave vocal range (B2 to Eb6). That last note is operatic. The original 1955 version of this song is in the key of G. Hatfield sang it in the higher key of Bb.
For me, this is one of the greatest live vocal performances ever captured on tape. And he makes it look so effortless.
Yes!
I agree but you should also check out Marvin Gaye Grapevine accapella live version. It is just heaven.
@@IljinarchiveAnd Roy Orbison.
For some reason I though Bobby had a bigger octive range than what you are saying. I believe you though.
One of the most iconic performances in music history. This is Bobby Hatfield's song; nobody, not even Elvis, can be equal to Bobby with this song.
Yep, elvis's version goes below bobby's. Bobby's voice was just too perfect for that song.
Yeah this was Bobby's song.
True that, this is Bobby's song!!!! Elvis will always be the king, and it's ok to have your own song no one can touch.
Austin Brown from Home Free did a damn good cover of this song. th-cam.com/video/XRvr7nQE7xM/w-d-xo.html
Sorry but Elvis did do this song. He sang it beautifully.
This Legendary song is even bigger than today's whole music industry
I read that he smiled at the end because his mom was in the audience and he knew he hit his high note.
Blue eyed soul. It was 1965, we danced to this at our HS proms. Draft was still on and we were leaving for Vietnam. Thanks for the memories, Bobby. RIP
Best performance ever in recorded history and I'm British, I'm biased towards the legendary British mega bands but nothing touches this.
Got to agree with you,but nights in white satin is a contender............
@@dwightdodd3734 Not sure if any anything would content with this master class performance but I just listened to it and I must say, an amazing track for sure! Love the backing on it, quite unique.
There are others that would contend with the Moody Blues: nights in white satin.
th-cam.com/video/0Fy7opKu46c/w-d-xo.html
One of the best ever recorded in the blue's department.
Best performance I have ever heard. No sound enhanced sound équipement. Song comes his heart.Unbeleavable performancr.
Its a great performance but you cant say its THE BEST, there are many other great performances id rank alongside this ,Ton Jones ill never fall in love is amazing ,The Bee Gees too much heaven live is just out of this world .th-cam.com/video/i6iBAuwBODA/w-d-xo.html
@@MARTIN-bd7gm I hear you but can't agree, the others do not come anywhere near close when it comes to skill, ability ect.
I have not seen a more skilled performance than this.
I absolutely love your reaction. I love Bobby with all my heart and this performance was amazing!
When you said, “let’s see if this takes me to church”…
I thought, “Oh, honey, you’re about to go running, crying all the way up to the pulpit by the end of the song!”
I’d be running to bedroom. ❤️❤️❤️
Y’all have filthy minds 😂
Bobby was incredible! We miss him so much. There will never be another Bobby Hatfield.
got to say, I'm crushing on this bloke and this is 1965 !!! Can he sing or what? Just wonderful.
I think the performance by Bobby Hatfield was spectacular, a golden performance. I loved your reaction and your beautiful smile.
The audience wasn't bored, this was the Andy Williams TV show, so I'm sure that the producers of the show didn't want the audience to be a distraction to this performance.
Yeah,but the applause at the start was the icing on the cake !
Exactly!
This was a live program at the Andy Williams Show in the studio at NBC in Oct 1965. If you wanted to watch the show you were quiet otherwise you would be thrown out. Believe me no one was bored! I was disappointed that I couldn't see the Osmonds----- for about 5 seconds.
@@duckducknight Exactly!!!
What a magical time to be alive, when men sang to women, & not at them ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ***LOVED YOUR REACTION***
And treated them as ladies
@@JohnRodriguesPhotographer 💗💗💗
A voice as smooth as silk on glass, and a vocal range that most only dream of.
Takes you back to memories of a simpler time, and makes you smile...
raw talent, no tech...perfection
In that era it was all about the music and not flashy shows and pyrotechnics. This was just pure vocal talent. Bobby Hatfield nailed this performance. For me it is probably the best live performance I have ever seen. I am so fortunate to have grown up during that time. Truly the golden age of music.
Agree- I never get tired of seeing/hearing this performance
The voice, the face, perfection.
Totally agree. Melissa Ward here.
Audiences were restrained then. Without restraint, you wouldn't have this performance. They don't bob and weave. He doesn't bob and weave. He stands and delivers while they stand back and don't distract.
i think that era was all about the vocals. the song is good well i mean great but his vocals is what makes us go crazy
The lip bite at the end gets me every time.
Me too! So cute!
I get shivers when he does this💙
@@lindaarmstrong1953 I am to old to get the shivers, but it's damn cute.
He just pierces your heart there.
He was nervous, the lip bite means he knew he nailed it.
You can feel the yearning for love and the unfathomable loneliness which entombs the sould without the love of your beloved. Great song and performance. This white guy got soul.
Bobby set the standard for this song that hasn't been equalled and probably never will be. His range, voice control and tonation is just incredible, note for note perfection and live, just him, a mic, the soundtrack and no autotune or electronic gadetry to cover up mistakes.
Bobby sang this fabulous song solo in front of a live audience on The Andy Williams weekly TV show back in 1965. The audiences for this weekly show were mature in age and were expected to act in such a subdued manner so as to give full respect to the singer with no distractions. The other part of this duo is Bill Medley who has an unbelievable baritone voice. If you want to hear them sing together then I highly recommend you react to "You've lost that loving feeling" which was the MOST played song on American radio & TV in the 20th century with a confirmed 8+ million plays!
Good thing I wasn’t in that audience then. I would have been kicked out for sure 🤣
Audience had to sit and be quiet.. Like Yebba's song .. audience was also asked to be quiet because it was being filmed and many reviewers didn't get why so quiet.
His mother was also in attendance and wanted to sing his very best
I’ll add that Bobby’s daughter told me his parents were in the audience that night, and he was incredibly nervous that evening...😳
@@RogueRxyce Before he sang this song, Andy Williams was interviewing Bobby and Bill and (I think Bill also had on a pink suit) Andy asked Bill is he going to perform with Bobby on this song. Bill said no and then said something like, 'I did not think this was going to be a good song'. The audience laughed. Then Bill and Andy walk off the stage and Bobby did his thing.
I'm a tough dude and he took MY breath away with this interpretation.
You're even tougher for admitting that, in my books.
@@jimmyb4982 that's right
His beautiful sound was known in the 60's as "blue-eyed soul". His voice draws out emotions now, almost 60 years later, as much as it did then. Your reaction is priceless!!!
Song written in 1955 for prison movie titled "Unchained." An inmate wonders if his woman will wait for his release, will still love him however long in the future he gets out. This performance was in 1965 on the Andy Williams' Show, live audience plus nationwide viewership. He hits every note right-on, amazing breath control and phrasing. A world-class performance; should be preserved in the Library of Congress as a national treasure.
He's the reason for the phrase, "Blue Eyed Soul".
It's called being completely captivated. History was made ,and forever will live on.
He was so scared when he did this live version his parents were in the audience and he didn't want to disappoint them and he nailed it it was a big hit in the movie Ghost
This was the greatest live singing in history. Bobby( Hatfield) owns this song. Nooooo performer will ever top him. RIP beautiful Bobby.😀❤️🙏
It was an era when audiences appreciated hearing the music and not yelling
What he does at 2:52.... melding "mine" with "I" and "need" over the course of 10 seconds in one breath... pure genius! ❤️
This is the single greatest live song performance ever, in my opinion. If he was a major league pitcher, this would have been a perfect game! Can anyone point out a single flaw in his execution? I didn't think so... By the way, I appreciate your very sincere reaction to this video, and you are getting my "LIKE" and my subscription. Keep up the good work!
appreciate the support thank you! 😊
This live, TV audience broadcast performance (The Andy Williams' Show, 1965) blows away the version used in the movie, "Ghost." Yes, as others here have said, this is the ultimate version out of all the hundreds of covers done since it's composition in 1955.
He was a contender for pro baseball at one time!
Hey Rogue. Fun Fact about this song. They were both there to perform. The host asked for this song to be performed. Brother #2 said I don’t sing in this song. Just asked why… #2 said “I didn’t think it was going to be a hit”….. lol. He then walked away to watch this amazing performance
My wife and I are 52 and we've been married 30 years. This was our song for our dance at our wedding. Thank you for listening to it and loving it. :)
A gift from GOD. That brother could flat out sing. Saw them live in Reno , no auto tune bs just pure talent.
This may be the single greatest live performance in history, 1965. No auto tune here, pure talent !
I grew up on music like this! I'm glad to see some of the younger generation, like youreself is discovering it. This music is real, not like the crap they make today. True vocals no machines.
Back In the day, people did not interrupt great performances. They didn't ruin it for everyone one else.
I love watching today's people enjoy the music I grew up with. Thank You.
Yeah that was a TV audience & they were not allowed to get up, dance or do anything to distract from the filming of the show, but when the Righteous Brothers went on the road & performed their concerts, the crowd (especially the ladies) went wild for them!!!
check American bandstand
I really can't think of anyone else with the balls, ability and confidence to go out and sing that song live and in the way that he did it. Most other singers worry about pulling off one or two tricky vocal runs live or one high note but this guy's doing it all for fun.
True Soul knows no colour.
Righteous brothers, you've lost that loving feeling.
You will love it.
Rogue - imagine a modern audience "whoop-whoop"-ing & screaming & clapping at all the wrong places during this song & you (& the world) wouldn't have this immaculate performance to get lost in. By the way, you're gorgeous ♥ x
I first heard this 55 years ago and I still get chills
You sure add to the beauty of this song with your smile
The man just tossed this out there with no effort at all, AND HE HAD A COLD!!!! Wearin' the hell outta that pink suit too. That lip bite at the end.... 🔥👏
All the man has to say is “Ohhh.”
Hearts melt. Tears begin to roll.
Most fabulous song by extraordinarily fabulous singer and presented by the most beautiful, articulate, joyful woman imaginable.
One if the most amazing voices ever
“I’m lost in a sea, his eyes and his voice…” Oh my golly! Ain’t that the truth!!! 😍❤️🥰
Now you know the effect ’the brothers’ had & still have on ladies. There was a joke that 9 months after The Righteous Brothers released a new record the birth rate would spike.
hahaha these guys knew what they were doing
You were SMITTEN.....this song hits so deeply
Absolute Classic! BEAUTIFUL. ♥️♥️♥️♥️🎼🎵🎶🇨🇦🇨🇦
The late, great Bobby Hatfield could surely sing a ballad. He could also rave out in songs like Summertime. (There's a live version of that, too.) The "second Brother," Bill Medley, actually produced and played piano on the studio version of this. He has joked in interviews that if he had known it would be such a big hit he would have gotten a better piano player. This live version transcends the studio one and is considered by many to be one of the finest live vocal performances ever. The record was a huge hit in 1965 and again 25 years later when it was in the movie Ghost. Check out both Brothers doing the most played song on the airwaves in the 20th century, You've Lost That Loving Feeling. You won't be disappointed.
I Agree, here's his version of Summertime : th-cam.com/video/mhmzauy-ISA/w-d-xo.html it's incredible
I’ll check it out thank you ☺️
Not to mention that it was a B-Side and the only reason Bobby performed it was because he won the coin flip. Spector went nuts when radio stations started playing it and demanded they stop. That didn't stop Spector from taking credit for producing it even though Bill Medley says he produced it.
@@hayseaglets9966 Bill Medley greatly admired Roy Hamilton, who had had a hit with this song about 10 years earlier. There were three versions of Unchained Melody near the top of the charts at the same time in 1955, but Hamilton's is the gospel infused version that inspired the Righteous Brothers, who recorded at least two other songs that had been hits for Roy Hamilton about 10 or 11 years earlier: Ebb Tide and You'll Never Walk Alone. Here is Roy Hamilton's version of Unchained Melody: th-cam.com/video/o8Fuesi8VcI/w-d-xo.html
Roy Hamilton was also admired by and a big influence on Elvis Presley, and also influenced Jackie Wilson, among others.
That's awesome. I had no idea that was Bill on the piano. Thanks for sharing that.
If you want to hear to hear both Righteous Brothers sing,try "You have lost that loving feeling" This will rock your world
Arguably the greatest love song ever recorded.
You have the face of an Angel and the taste in Music of a Princess. Well done Mum’zel!!!!!!
Must have seen a dozen or more women reacting to this song, so far everyone of them has melted away 😂
no surprise haha
@@RogueRxyce Dont know if you've done it already or not, but if you haven't, it would be interesting to see how you cope with The Bee Gees " Too much heaven".
The incredible voice and talent of Bobby Hatfield! He is one half of The Righteous Brothers, but this song is Bobby's alone!
Back then, respect was rampant.
The mentality of the people back then gave respect to the performers that were willing to bare their souls to a large audience.
They kept quiet during the performance.
Cheer or boo,AFTER the performance.
He is one of the best singer's ever.
He sounds better here, than on the record version on the top-40 chart. When he sings, “I hungered for your touch...” And the ending too...
The Righteous Brothers actually called their style of singing "Blue-eyed Soul". so you got it . . . .
Cheers.
The studio version of this song is by far the best one. I wish more people reacted to that one.
I absolutely love your reaction to this, by far the best. As well as having a stunning voice, persona and ability to make one think that he’s personally singing to you, he’s just so good looking. Sung live with his mum sat in the front row and no auto tune. Bobby was amazing and I feel what you’re feeling, this song and performance takes me to another world.
Angelic... First time I heard this as a kid in probably 1983 I cried because it was so amazing 👏
this is the most beautiful song she will ever hear in her life
up there for sure!
This song reaches into your soul and connects in a way that goes far beyond entertainment. Beautiful
In 1965 he did the same to all of us women in those days , now 50 years later the song touches every women hearts still , they not real brothers, and he went solo on this song as the other guy Bill thought it won’t be a hit , but Bobby love the lyrics , so he decided to go it alone , and since then this song has been the most played song on the radio , Bobby passed away 2004 , and his wife of 45 years followed him 2010 . At least they together , R I P mr n Mrs hartfield ❤️❤️❤️❤️
what makes songs of this era so special ?
no autotune
thanks, Rogue - yep, that's all Bobby Hatfield -- and one thing I love is how effortless it is for him -- no straining or screaming.. also, he was supposedly nervous that his mom was in audience... I'm sure she was proud!
The man sings like an angel... he just needs a set if wings.
Amazing.
That is not boredom but total respect to the artist,silent admiration, not wanting to miss a single word,total respect,people didn't make a noise so everyone could enjoy the song like you are now,55 years later,,respect is sadly missing in this end generation,before Christ return,
Great reaction, RR!
One of my FAV reactions to this FAB song!
thank you! 😄
Rest in peace Bobby thanks for the beautiful music you've given us
No auto tune just one man a microphone and lots of talent
1 of greatest songs and voices I've ever heard his voice nobody has ever come close just sensational
Just watched the end of “Ghost” with Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze...the music score at the end with this song when Swayze was saying goodbye and going to heaven was really emotional
after 55 years, im not sure this has been equaled. one of, if not the best performance of a pop song ever
Your reaction was one of the best reactions I've ever seen.
So genuine.
Unbelievable performance too.
Agree
Best singer of all time in my opioion. Bobby Hatfield beautiful man too.
Everyone is just in shock. Imagine never hearing this on a radio or movie or any type of media. N this man lays it on u. Ur eyes would be wide open n like is this an angel...
The audiences were polite and listened to talent, no bored. Bobby did 21 notes perfectly in that solo, without applause, live, on stage, no auto tune, just a mike. He didn't need props like the singers today that put on a show instead just a voice from a singer that had talent.
Seen her reaction. Makes me just want to give her the biggest hug ever. May the peace and blessings of God be upon you and your family 🙏
Ladies & Gentleman, Mr. Bobby Hatfield. He was incredible. What a voice, range, phrasing, intonation all wrapped up into one & he made it look so easy. That's the killer part of it all. LOL
My theory is that back then, the audience was quiet because they wanted to catch every nuance of this amazing performance
Love your videos! Love your music! Love your smile! And I love watching your eyes when you are enjoying the music! Keep the videos coming!
See that smirk at the end…he knew he nailed it sick and all.
I am glad to see younger people react in a positive way to how good the songs of the sixties and seventies were.
Beautiful song, and what a reaction from you. I've melted
Isn't that an incredible performance? So cool to see you enjoying it and, even more, feeling it. No power poses, no hands on his hips, no straining his face to look like he's really working it, no autotune, no studio tricks. Just straight up talent, honed from performing hundreds of shows and rehearsals. Back then, entertainers had to work to get their shot at stardom and the competition was fierce so you had to be your absolute best.
Bobby had a vocal range of almost 4 entire octaves and he could hit every note without even looking like he was trying. That little sustain when he first hits a high note, then the almost silent fall as he descends into the next part is not easy to do, yet he holds you tightly in his vocal embrace with every note. This is a clip from the Andy Williams TV show and is only part of what the Righteous Brothers did during that episode. In the audience that night was Bobby's mum and he was a nervous wreck before he sang this, but his total professionalism at his craft made him just face the challenge and nail it. Watch at the end where he lightly bites his lower lip. He knew he'd given possibly the finest performance of his life to that point.
If you want to see a great almost solo performance from Bill Medley, the other brother, check out the duo singing I Just Want To Make Love To You. It's a cover of an older Chicago Blues classic but the brothers make it their own with a wonderful rearrangement.
Wow, thanks for this
Back in the sixties, this was the song that was best enjoyed on the dance floor with that special love. A slow, cuddling, dance. In the 21st. Century--it still works!! Glad to see your reaction.
Your smile and eyes! You are beautiful. I enjoy your reactions.
