Bobby Hatfield gives his heart and soul during this performance. My favourite of all time! Incomparable!
Leslie Geddes ; his mother was in the audience. He was nervous as hell this was preformed on the Andy Williams show. They did three songs that night. I remember watching it. My parents had just gotten a color tv.
@@nethanelmasters5170 What wonderful memories to treasure. Thanks for sharing ( just now saw your comment) 💜🕊️
No one has sung this song better then the late great Bobby Hatfield of the 'Righteous Brothers.' The beautiful melody of Alex North (1910-1991), and memorable lyrics by Hy Zaret (1907-2007). Composed and wrote one of the greatest songs in music history.
It was performed perfectly and effortlessly on a live television performance on the 'Andy Williams Show' back in (1965)
by Bobby Hatfield.
The song was written for a prison move titled 'Unchained' (1955). Hence the title of the song. It was first sung in the movie by African American opera singer, theatre and film actor Todd Duncan.
A decade later in 1965 Bobby Hatfield's rendition (above) made the song more famous and loved throughout the world. Ever since that epic performance his version became the quintessential version of them all. The rest as they say is history...
No one will ever sing this better. Bobby Hatfield set a standard that will never be surpassed.
Amen!
no one not even Elvis could touch Bobbie on this song
I watched the Elvis cover of this song, he was not even close to what Bobby did.
Totally agree. His performance was magic that night.
Elvis didn´t have the same vocal register and dynamics so it would be impossible technically.
I didn't even know until this week that Elvis and Sam Cooke sang versions of this before and after the Bobby. They are not even in the same ballpark or even playing the same game. I have seen each of theirs once. I have seen this version maybe 567 times in the last 10 days.
I don’t think Bobby himself could have outdone this performance.
When women react to this video...they smile...their eyes sparkle...they lick their lips and touch their hair..they tingle ALL OVER... it makes me smile to their reactions. Mr Hatfield at his best , live, on beast mode. Legend!
He is really amazing
Yep, even old ladies like me
You can always see their hearts melt, ......just a beautiful pure emotion love song
670+ singers have covered this song... for me, its Bobby Hatfield's forever.
Hands down no one better
@Danny Russell that is why I put in "for me" because I was giving my opinion.
@Point Dexter Yes well we had another person here commenting to someone saying "hands down no one better" that an opinion shouldn't be stated as fact. There is no accounting for other's taste but "for me" , Bobby Hatfield singing this is incomparable! "For me" it is a fact. LOL
@@lesliegeddes7896 I have a fun fact about Bobby Hatfield singing this solo. Backstage , Bobby and Bill flipped a coin to see who would sing this song onstage. Bobby Hatfield obviously won and it went on to be the best version of all time ! Their next song was a record breaking song for over 50 years as being the most played record by radio stations EVER ! You've Lost That Loving Feeling. . It beat #2 by over 1 million times. #2 was Let It Be , by the Beatles.
@@jerrybutler8917 I read that it was a song Bobby always liked that he used to perform with his old group The Variations. In an interview Bill Medley said Bobby wanted to do it and that was fine with him. The song was to be a B side only and Bill has said many times he never thought it would be a hit.
We called that "Blue-eyed Soul" back in the day. The incomparable Bobby Hatfield, giving women of all ages hot flashes since 1962.
Ge done gotten some people great grandma, grandma's, and mothers
He was no way as relaxed as he looked- his mother was in the audience. The final smile was because he knew he hadn't embarrassed her.
This is the version !!! the cover of all covers. whatever else there is pales in to vocal insignificance. Absolutely phenomenal. Your amazing vocal ihas no equal past or present ! Thank you BOBBY HATFIELD. From all of us. Bless !
John and Mr54 you both nailed it in admiral prose.
A TIMELESS MASTERPIECE !
As teenager in those years 1965 , a lot of the girls felt his voice was like Velvet, singing from his heart and soul pulling you in deeply!
The last note was so high that dogs 100 miles away perked up their ears and thought...what was that?
Not the original version, but the definitive version.
The greatest male live solo performance of all time... How can this ever be beaten? Bobby Hatfield literally had the voice of an angel... Often voted the greatest live tv performance of all time... Imagine being in the audience for this? It must've felt like God himself was serenading you... RIP Bobby, thank you for giving us the gift of your beautiful voice... You are still making females fall in love with you 60 years later. Timeless, perfect, and so, so beautiful ❤
Thanks, Minkie -- yes, the immortal Bobby Hatfield KILLS this - I also heard that this LIVE performance made him nervous b/c his Mom was in the audience -- I have no doubt that she was proud! (he didn't even need his "bro" Bill Medley to back him up!) - and yeah, so calm, as you noted... not straining for those high notes at all!
This song was written in 1955 for a movie called "Unchained", thus the song title.
Over 670 artists have covered it, but the Righteous Brothers version from 1965 is the standard by which all others are measured.
It was a huge hit for them in the 1960s and became a hit again in1990 when it was featured in the film "Ghost".
Now with this live version making the rounds, a whole new generation has discovered it.
And that's a good thing
...and that, ladies and gents, is what great crooners do.
This is the quintessential love song and no one sings it better than Bobby Hatfield. You also have to remember this is live from 1965. No autotune enhancement. Try more Righteous Brothers like You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling, Soul And Inspiration, Rock and Roll Heaven. New subscriber here. Thanks for the real music.
j20tower Bill Medely brought Bobby’s Mother too this show as a surprise. When Bobby found out he said he became extremely nervous and yet you see he nailed it perfectly for her.
jason mangen I didn’t know that. She must of been so proud. There’s a couple of different ways he sung this. The live version which I don’t think there has ever been a better performance and the studio version. All awesome. Rock and Roll Heaven doesn’t get enough play and it’s genius.
THE best live performance in music history....period!!
Peace to you...
RIP Bobby Hatfield
This song is a poem from soldiers in war to there sweetheart, it was never sung better and never will be.
His Mom and Dad were in house that night... A veteran of war.
Passion comes from real suffering and this song has a real meaning behind it.
Truly this a beautiful masterpiece for those who can truly appreciate it.
In the first decade or so of rock and roll (mid fifties to the mid sixties), artists wore suits when they performed or appeared in public - even the beatles and the stones!
Y e s !!!
There were actually two Righteous Brothers: Bobby Hatfield here, and Bill Medley. They usually sang together but occasionally Bobby would put out a solo record although still billed as The Righteous Brothers. If you liked this song--as you obviously did---you will no doubt love "Ebb Tide" by him. It's a similar tempo, but even more powerful..
He's got a great voice!! You have me singing now 🙂 Great reaction! He does rock a nice pink suit!
''It reminds me of some old songs'' : Melody,and lyrics of a quality and sung naturally to a very high standard .Unlike 99% of todays offerings.
As has been mentioned, the other member of the Righteous Brothers who was not part of this solo, is Bill Medley. He also did some work on his own including a duet with Jennifer Warnes called I’ve had The Time of my Life. It was featured in the movie Dirty Dancing.
And to think, his mother was in the audience, when “Bobby *IMMORTALIZED* Unchained Melody” for ever! ! ! Thank You FATHER for
allowing us to enjoy the “Righteous Brothers” voices for a while! ! !
This was the theme song for the 1990 movie Ghost with Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze. I was 15 in 1965 when Bobby did this. Young lady - your smile lights up the screen. Thanks for honoring our music of the 60's.
He's calm because of his natural GOD GIVEN TALENT.
This is Bobby's song. No one can match his touch! He nailed it!! RIP Bobby! You'll never be forgotten! I was 15 when I heard you sing this song on the Andy Williams show. I was so lucky to be baby boomer! RIP Bobby! ❤❤❤
On a side note, Bobby was nervous because his own mother was in the audience when he singing this song. He doesn't show it!
Bobby wasvery nervous because his parents were in the audience, but he NAILED it, and his little smirk at the end is the tell.
I didn't think of it as a smirk...more like a relieved and hopeful "Did I get that? I think so!"
That was a smile not a smirk. He was looking at his mom in the audience.
@@annastinehammersdottir1290 his mom was sitting behind him.
Notice please, that he hit all the notes, held the notes that needed to be held, and did it with no strain. That is a singer that has practiced and perfected his craft and skills
What I see in this incredible performance is that he allows the song and his voice to be the focus. Modern singers will adopt power poses, a fist pushed into the air, grimacing faces as they reach a high note, anything to make a show of what they're doing. Bobby simply steps back and shows his amazing talent. It gives us, the audience, the respect to form our own opinions and feelings about the performance, without the circus adornments of showing off. Best of all is this is live. He uses no autotune, no studio fakery, no prerecorded vocal track to make his voice sound richer. Bobby Hatfield was a real singer and a tremendous talent, with a flawless three and a half octave range. I doubt there's a singer today who could do this.
Your words paint a powerful picture of Bobby Hatfield's talent and performance. Thank you 💝
@@lesliegeddes7896 Thank you. Bobby was an incredible talent, to be sure. What I really love about this live performance is that it's even better than the recording. How many times can we say that? Just amazing
I agree completely.
The song was written between 1954 and 1955. In 1955 there were 4 versions by 4 separate artist.
When the Righteous Brothers got this it's been theirs, well more Bobby Hatfield's; his version is the standard that many are compared to.
Both Bobby Hatfield and Bill Medley had songs in US Films, Bobby's unchained Medley appeared in Ghost with Demi Moore Whoopi Goldberg, and Patrick Swayze and Bill Medley's sang Time of my life with Jennifer Warnes, Starring Patrick Swayze, Jennifer Grey and Cynthia Rhodes ( hell of a soundtrack )
On this live performance his Mother ( possibly dad ) is in the audience.
At the end he bites his lip as he knows he nailed this song.
There are thousands of covers of this song, sung by Elvis, Robson and Jerome many, many others many come close, but none beat Bobby's rendition.
Basic history: from Wikipedia:
They began performing together in 1962 in the Los Angeles area as part of a five-member group called the Paramours .
In 1964 music producer Phil Spector came across the Righteous Brothers when they performed in a show at the Cow Palace in Daly City, CA. where one of Spector's acts, The Ronettes, was also appearing.
The rest is history.
"Unchained Melody" is a 1955 song with music by Alex North and lyrics by Hy Zaret. North wrote the music as a theme for the little-known prison film Unchained (January 1955), hence the song title. Todd Duncan sang the vocals for the film soundtrack. It has since become a standard and one of the most recorded songs of the 20th century, most notably by the Righteous Brothers. According to the song's publishing administrator, over 1,500 recordings of "Unchained Melody" have been made by more than 670 artists, in multiple languages.
Of the hundreds of recordings made, the Righteous Brothers'( Bobby Hatfield and Bill Medley ) version in July 1965, with a solo by Bobby Hatfield, became the jukebox standard after its release. Hatfield changed the melody in the final verse and many subsequent covers of the song are based on his version.
The Righteous Brothers recording achieved a second round of great popularity when it was featured in the film Ghost in 1990. In 2004, it was Number 27 on AFI's 100 Years...100 Songs survey of top tunes in American cinema.
This was a performance on the Andy Williams show. He was actually nervous during this performance because his parents were in the audience and he didn't want to disappoint them.
Bobby hayfields version is the gold standard of Unchained Melody. His emotion is unparalleled. It’s a beautiful love song. No auto tune. Just real talent.
This performance was in 1965, yes, 55 years ago.
Pink suits were popular in the early 1960s for use on black-and-white television because the pink came across as a very clean and formal gray color.
You witnessed the best song and performance of all time. Your reaction was right on target. You got class yourself like Bobby Hatfield. His memory will live on forever. I subscribed right away. Be safe and take care.
This song was first done in 1955 (10 years prior to the recording) by a singer named Al Hibbler. It is on you tube. The song was featured in a movie called " Unchained"
The song was originated from a movie called Unchained (hence Unchained Melody). Al Hibler originally sang it. Bobby Hatfield covered and made it his own.
"Perfection" exactly 💯
His rendition of this song is simply effortless. Beautiful.
Pure magic 😊
@@lifewithminkie5178 Exactly! The voice of an angel! 🧡
Theme song for the 1955 movie "Unchained". A prison movie. A prisoner is wrestling with whether to serve out his sentence or escape. Bobby Hatfield owned this song forever!
He was the original singer. No auto tune just live talent
He was not the original singer - that was Todd Duncan back in 1955 from the movie "Unchained",but Bobbys version is the standard which no-one can compare to.
AMAZING
This has always been my all. time favorite song by the Richeous Brothers only. Bobby Hatfield is amazing. He hits that one high
note so beautifully I want to cry.
I sang this to my wife at our wedding in 1983. She, however she said I murdered it. I'm guessing it's not a song for a baritone, she told me I was of better sticking to my drumming. I thought it was an appropriate song as I was in the Royal Marine Commandos, I had returned from the war for the Falkland Islands when I proposed, and now was shipping out to Sierra Leone two days later, so much for my attempt at being romantic. On the upside she liked me in my Dress Uniform, and having my comrades forming the sword tunnel helped.
I must have done something write because we're still together. With 4 children and 7 grandchildren, we got busy on baby's when I was home. I served my Queen and Country for 34 years as a Royal Marine Commandos and Specialist Forces, and then 2 years in hospital, and she stuck by me even though I'm wheelchair bound now. We do actually have a song by Queen called "Your Me Best Friend", a very apt song as she has been my best friend since we were 16.
That version of the song was recorded in1965 by the late great Bobby Hatfield. It was a cover as the song was written 10 years earlier for a movie soundtrack, titled Unchanged. Bobby's version is widely considered the quintessential version, even though it has been recorded by over 670 artists. RIP Bobby, and thank you for this song.
This song was featured in the movie Ghost in the 90's Great song sung by Bobby Hatfield RIP Bobby His partner Bill Medley is soulful too great group.
Bobby Hatfield is smooth
HE IS PERFECT
"Unchained Melody" is a 1955 song with music by Alex North and lyrics by Hy Zaret. North used the music as a theme for the little-known prison film Unchained (1955), hence the song title. Todd Duncan sang the vocals for the film soundtrack. The Righteous Brothers performed it in 1965, 55 years ago.
This man is the original
original every man wants to sing this to there true love and after 55 years of loving one woman it means the world
MINKE, CAN YOU BELIEVE A PERFORMANCE LIKE THIS FROM 1965.
THIS IS BECAUSE BOBBY HAD A GOD GIVEN MUSICAL VOICE AND HE SOUNDED LIKE AN ANGEL. BEYONG JUST GOOD, IT WAS PHENOMENAL
One of the most covered songs ever. But Bobby Hatfield does it the best. Always reminds me of the movie Ghost
This song can never be covered and match the original. Bobby Hatfield had an amazing voice and range with no auto tune needed..
Most of your generation know this song as the theme song of the movie “Ghost”
Crazy how much better this live version is...
Bonjour from the French Riviera (American) ... nice reaction (even if 2 years late ... sorry). Keep in mind this is a "live" performance in 1965 ... no Studio "punch in/punch out on your Mac ... and no "Sure SM58 mic" either (dynamic range was limited). Part you missed in the Vid is the use of sublimital perception observation ... the yellow, globe lights when sings about "lonely Rivers flow to the Sea"... it got you without you knowing it. Know that in the Audience is his Mom .... and the first time she's seen him perform "live" ... explains him biting his lower lip at the end ... he knew he nailed it.
Great reaction to Blue Eyed soul, you are a very beautiful woman. Enjoy real music from the mid 60’s.
Bobby Hatfield OWNS this song. Period.
This song was written for a prison movie- listen again knowing it's a prisoner singing to his girl on the outside for a real emotional experience.
This song is a very close, and emotional song for me. I am a man's man, but...I cry every time I hear it. My mom passed away 3 years ago. She had me record this song (her all time favorite) over and over again on a cassette so she could hear it over and over again. Everytime I hear it, I think of her. I miss, and love you so very much mom.
Live to Survive!
The song and his vocals wash over you.
This was recording during the Vietnam war and was very popular in 1965. Blue-eyed soul sung by an angel.
Hip-hopers, rappers and crappy pop singers. Go back home, lock the doors. Don't come back until you can play 5 notes and sing "Mary has a little lamb". With no Autotune fake singing, neither studio fake tricks and tracks.
What you hear is major league in music. You're still in primary school.
Pierre you said it all, and well said too.....
I totally agree. No hip hop or rap. That stuff is not music. This song by Bobby and other songs by Bobby and Bill Medly that is real music. Your my soul and insperation is also totally awesome. Love to see a reaction to this!!!
@@richardwilson209
I'm a boomer playing good pop-rock and jazz double bass.
you looked like a beautiful bride to be listening to a love song and it had the perfume of Jesus presence thank you
Minkie, because I'm a old fan from hearing them from 1964 to the present
As far as I'm concerned Bobby Hadfield can wear any color he wants and please quit pausing a lot because he's just warming up at the first part of the song the best part is yet to come so listen and be amazed
Play the other Righteous Brothers video You've Lost That Loving Feeling you would like that one too
Bobby Hatfield because of his talent made this song SPECIAL for me and many, many others. The more you listen the better you feel. You can't help but feel the love. For three minutes you're truly unchained from your problems. By the way you are very beautiful. Take classes and make movies.
Bobby extremely classy.up notched...this song was played at my wedding in 1976......❤!! This was played at my wedding when my bridesmaids walked in.this was Bobby Hatfield s song..all the rest are cover
Yes I remember them so good. I was14 and just loved them ✝☮ still exalint . At 68
Al Hibler sang it first, and made it a pop standard. (1954)
Minkie this song was very big during the 1960s and the war in Vietnam was on every time my ship left to go to sea my girlfriend who is now my wife would play this and cry each time till i got back home.
Pink suit. This was performed on Valentines Day 1965. I was 15 and we loved to dance to it. My grandkids can’t believe our music back then. I’m 72 now and I still love and play it on occasion for my wife.
Bobby knows how to touch your compassion with his beautiful and soulful delivery. I fall in love with him each time I hear/watch this beautiful performance made when he was only 25 and I was a 17 yo teen.
BOBBY SANG THIS SONG WITH US GUYS IN VIET NAM TO SEND OUR FEELINGS TO OUR WIVES AND GIRLFRIENDS BACK HOME , WHEN I CAME BACK , MY WIFE AND I WERE LUCKY ENOUGH TO SEE HIM PERFORM THIS SONG FOUR TIMES AT DIFFERENT VENUES AND EACH TIME HE SANG THE ONLY SOUND ONE HEARD FROM EACH AUDIENCE WAS THE SOUND OF WOMENS PANTIES HITTING THE FLOORS , WE LOST BOBBY IN 2003 , LOSS OF A GREAT TALENT
The pink suit was because it was Valentines Day on the Andy Williams show
This was his first take. He asked to do another, thinking he could do better. His partner Bill said "No, you can't" He knew perfection when he heard it.
@@Ididnotwanttojoin An interview with Bill Medly on TV
@@Ididnotwanttojoin I'm not sure, it may well have been the studio version.
@@bierce716 studio recording because this was live on the Andy Williams Show ...Look at what followed! th-cam.com/video/KGClv9GKYmo/w-d-xo.html
Aww you are amazingly beautiful & thank you for helping to keep bobbies spirits alive
they aren't the originals, but that was the one that kind of ruined it for everyone else. He so nailed it that it's pretty much the only one ever used.
It’s 1965 when this film was shot. It is not from the 80s
He is in the rock and roll hall of fame.
BOBBY OWNS THIS SONG, NO ONE EVEN COMES CLOSE!
Beaut Song! And He Killed It! You're Also Soooooo Beautiful by the way!
The Righteous brothers flipped a coin to see who would do this song. Bobby won!
RIP Bobby ❤
I think We Won! 💙💙💙 Bless you and RIP Bobby Hatfield
His is the most famous version!
and we all know why, so good
That young lady is “Blue Eyed Soul “ pure and simple. May I add that you are one of the most beautiful woman I have ever seen.
His twist and take of this song is the only one.
...Nice reaction..I don't know what is more beautiful the song or you? Both very impressive. ❤️💗💗
It's his song. Nobody ever did it better. I love the girls react to this song today. Heck even the young guys get emotional over it. That's when you know you have made a classic.
I can’t get over this song
Minkie if you would like more suggestions to your audiences from the past let me know. I've got a great play list for you.😊
@@krisfox3537 Your suggestions are more than welcome
A Pink crushed velvet jacket,all the rage in those days!
Bobby's mom was in the front row, he nailed this song for her😁
did no one mention this song was decided on a coin flip? i mean talk about destiny.The Righteous Brothers are on some of the biggest soundtrack songs in the history of music because of how talented they are all these years later.
Beautiful, Genuine Reaction. Thank You!
This era was when stage performance was at its best. Such professionalism and dignity. A shy smile, just a grin and a nod of the head when he finished. No bad language or cursing in the song (like rap or stuff). Beautiful, dignified, and professional singing. We no longer have that, and I don’t see it ever happening again. Oh, how we fell in love dancing to these sweet songs back then.
Ron Stopfer God bless them for making great music 💕
It’s there song They had a coin flip to see who would sing the solo. Bobby won . That is a beautiful song
The moment you see women melt its priceless I WISH I HAD THIS MANS GIFT
This T.V.show aired on Valentine's Day. The guests were asked to wear something red/pink... the sports jacket.
This song came from a movie called unchained about a guy in prison. It’s basically asking for his significant other to wait for him until he gets released from prison. The movie came out in 1955 and this song was redone by Bobby Hatfield in 1965 and his brother, well not really a brother Bill didn’t think it would be successful so that’s why he’s not singing with him on this. Boy was he wrong!
