William Arthur Fenton, Brother, I'm 64 and I shed tears of joy every time I hear it especially this live version by Bobby Hatfield, the song was written for a little known 1955 prison movie by the name of "Unchained" . This is my favorite vocal song of all time I could still listen to it for hours, it makes my heart swell up with love for any girl listening with me 😂🤣😭. Seriously though I absolutely love this version it's the greatest love song of all time, many many times over the years this song clinched the deal between a fine woman and me. It always makes me feel great and from feeling down to instantly soaring. Just had to make a comment about some of the history of " Unchained Melody" as well as how it affects me.
This was my parents song at their wedding in the mid 1980’s. I was there and I remember it clearly. My Dad passed away in 1998. This song always makes me cry. I can’t listen to it in public lol.
this is probably the best live version of any song that will ever be sung,consider yourselves lucky to have heard it.no vocal manipulations,no autotune,no editing out.just bobby and his voice,period.
Aren't they great?! Before my time, but love is love. The way its supposed to be. What a beautiful gift love is. Thank goodness we have beautiful songs to remind us
@@PsychedelicFerret you should get your history fixed. the song first appeared in 1954-55, 1955 had 4 versions that year by 4 different singers. RB's version is considered the best, but it wasn't the first and Bobby's live version is considered the standard that all others get compared to. Elvis, Robson and Jerome, and others follow.
I just love the reaction on your face as you first hear Bobby's voice and those precious three words, "oh, my love". Holding heart's close for 55 years. ❤️
These guys were legendary back in late 50s early 60s you can feel the song when they sing not just this song but every song their wasn't anybody could even come close to these guys
I love that tiny little smile at the very end. It's like he is saying 'yeah, I liked that'. The song was from the movie "Unchained'; about a prisoner who is trying to decide between escape or serving his time.
Are you related to the Isaacs, southern Gospel/bluegrass family, a Christian Jewish family from southern Ohio. The grandparents were holocaust survivors. As a matter of fact. The lead singer is Sonya.
I gotta say you had 1 of the BEST reactions to this song! u know why? cause u DID NOT pause every 10 seconds or whatever!! u listened to the song and THEN gave ur reaction! you did the reaction PERFECTLY! make comments AFTER the song! you are FANTASTIC. what you did is how EVERYONE should do and react. BRAVO TO YOU!
Yes, it is the original singer that we all heard in the 60's. So much fantastic music from the 60's. Thanks for reacting to it and bringing it back to a new generation. The 60's had the BEST music ever.
Isn't it spectacular to have a beautiful man, handsomely dressed, sing this song to you? Gives me chills every time I hear it. First time I heard it was in 1965, when my then boyfriend (and then husband for 53 years) and I listened to it.
Originally from a movie soundtrack, "Unchained" recorded in 1955. This is possibly one of the most recorded songs but, the one you just watched with Bobby Hatfield of the Righteous Brothers is considered the best of all. I was a kid when this was first performed on TV and today at 65 years old, it still give me the chills.
Do you know who gave the Righteous Brothers their name they were just starting out in the early 50s and Watts California and they played in place that was pretty much all African American Marines they booed them loudly when they came on stage but by the time they were done they didn't want them to stop singing and they called them a pair of Righteous Brothers and the name stuck just like their music has for all these years. And your reaction priceless, today's music can't hold a candle against it. I can remember my mother playing this when I was a child they were some of her favorite singers.
They did NOT start in the early 50s. They started out of high school in '58 or '59. They are not from Watts. They are Southern California boys. Look the surfer dude part. But voices straight out of soul church.
This was live on the Andy Williams show there were no do overs just his amazing God given voice and a small microphone no auto-tone or gimmicks Just Bobby's voice.Many before and after him have done this song but no one will ever do this song like Bobby. It was effortless, smooth and sheer perfection. He's the Greatest singer that did it.There is another brother and he was there but at times they both did solos. He was the whole package ❤. LOVE YOUR PERSONALITY IT WAS A PLEASURE TO WATCH YOU. I'M SURE I'm not the only one you made smile today.
The Righteous Brothers were Bobby Hatfield and Bill Medley (who sang the deep-deep bass). Blue eyed soul singers from Southern California, and when the black Chicago DJ would play their vinyl, he’d exclaim excitedly “That’s RIGHTEOUS, Brother!!!!”. Only later did people learn they were two skinny blue-eyed boys from SoCal. Thank you for showing your love and interest in this beautiful song. Kzoey, our country needs some love at this time. Thank you and God bless you. And, I’d be remiss if I failed to say you are a beautiful woman with a big heart ❤️ and....I send my love to you from Kansas!
This song has been done by many people . Bobby Hatfield just happened to do it far better than anybody else . Incredible voice , and he was an absolute master of runs .
This is from the era of REAL TALENT when dress"n slick was cool and Bobby here sang it like no other. It will never be done by anyone that could compare to him. He was a true golden voice and this song will forever be remembered because of him !! WAS HE AWESOME OR WHAT ???
Yes he is. He was madly in love and with a special woman that that had stole his heart. He wrote that just foe her to show and tell her he was coming home to her and not to worry hw would be there. His song was from the heart for thus woman.
Yes, this is Bobby Hatfield. Unfortunately, not with us today. But what a blessing to us . What unifies us is music, it doesn't matter the color, its the message. Its Love. Blessing to you.
This song takes on more meaning when understood in context...the song comes from a prison movie about a man doing time and singing to his love from prison...In 1954, Alex North was contracted to compose the score for the prison film (released in 1955).... North then asked Hy Zaret to write the lyrics, but Zaret initially declined, saying he was too busy painting his house. North was able to convince him to take the job, and together they wrote "Unchained Melody."...and the rest is history...maybe the most beautifully written romantic song of all time...and as I understand Zaret did eventually get his house painted.
@@ronweber1402 - current is not always better. A Classic is a Classic. And how do you know a Classic? When they are still playing the song 55 years later!
@@SweetThing Until you have listened to Floor Jensen you should really shut up about once in a lifetime voices. She is probably the most versatile female vocalist in the world today.
@@ronweber1402 - I have listened to Floor. YAWN! What are you, 10? You just go on with your obsession with her & don't forget her club mix version! And STFU!!
This is a live recording, only one take, no studio, just Bobby Hatfield and a microphone. It's a once in a lifetime KILLER. Better than his original vinyl version of the same year, 1965. That boy could SING. RIP.
No one can possibly sing this song like Bobby Hatfield. I'm glad you enjoyed it. 5:16-yes he's the original singer and the only one to do it right, unlike others who have failed, miserably.
Great reaction. This is the original singer they used in the movie, "Ghost!" Also, check out more songs by the Righteous Brothers. They really pay respect to women the way they sing their songs.
This guy's range was out of reach for all other singers. A good analysis of the actual notes is on a British musician/ singers site called Wings of Pegasus. He gives the notes reached and tells why no one can do this like Bobby could.
Noone will ever sing again like this Period What a voice Its a goosebumps moment the way he holds onto notes and extends them with silky smooth control and emotion He means every bit of every word This is as good as it gets
Wonderful reaction on your part...they were not the original singers,they just made it the most famous and everlasting especially with the great Bobby Hatfield's beautiful countertenor and 4 octave voice range.
This 1965 song was written and played in the 1955 movie "Unchained," when a prisoner tries to escape after being turned down for parole several times. His friend stops him. His friend also sings the melody wondering if she will wait for him when he get unchained from this special prison without walls in Chino, CA. Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield sang in a local bar in Orange, CA when a black Marine from El Toro Base at Irvine CA, shouted out to them; Yeah! "That was righteous, Brothers!" Righteous being slang for cool, great, & good.
Hey girl hello and God bless from Canada. You know I think this will always be Bobby Hatfield song I don't think it was the absolute original but it was the original everyone remembered the Righteous Brothers these two had unbelievable voices and they sang so beautifully together. Music enjoyment it has no colour God bless all
Though not the first, generally recognized as the best. His version was used in the movie Ghost. The Righteous Brothers had a solo or two each album. Both wanted to do this song. Bobby Hatfield won the coin toss.
Lmao!!! Applause, bow then...."TO YOU!!!!!". And ending with the good ol' fist pump. Great reaction. First time watching you. Won't be the last. Great job! Love your intro too!!
As some have already said, This was from a movie originally about someone in prison. I haven't seen it though. I prefer the way I experienced it in the sixties as a soldier in 'Nam singing to his sweetheart. My friend said it was also done by a do-wop group earlier but it wasn't how this song should be done. Bobby Hatfield did it perfectly and it's known as the best version. One of the best of all times for love songs, slow dance & just all around. Gives me shivers Even at 67. If you watch the movie Ghost, this is what they dance to at the end. *tears * Bill Medley (the other part of the duo with deep voice) wasn't in this one, but you might like "You've lost that lovin feeling" Ebb Tide is nice too.
Elvis Presley did this song for the first time at what turned out his last concert. It's here on TH-cam, look it up Rapid City, SD. My parents were there. Maybe compare them.😉
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!

This definitely the original, no auto tune pure talent.
You have just witnessed the most perfectly performed song of ALL TIME!!!
Well its the best version of this song.
This is the original
I don't know how people manage to not shed at least one tear listening to this.
I was a hormonal 14-year-old and these guys drove me nuts.

His voice is a dream
yes he was the best
Elvis did a really good version at his last concert ever in Rapid City, SD...first time doing it. My parents were there.
this is probably the best live version of any song that will ever be sung,consider yourselves lucky to have heard it.no vocal manipulations,no autotune,no editing out.just bobby and his voice,period.
The GOLD standard. Period.
You got "that look" as soon as he started singing. The late, great, beautiful Bobby Hatfield😘
Beautiful reaction young lady and thank you for helping to keep bobbies spirits alive
Effortless and perfect. Live with no auto tune, no lip syncing. Bobby Hatfield was such a talent!
Aren't they great?! Before my time, but love is love. The way its supposed to be. What a beautiful gift love is. Thank goodness we have beautiful songs to remind us
Not the original version, but considered the best version ever done.
Righteous Brothers(Hatfield) did it first.
Are you talking studio/Live?
This song was written for the RB's.
@@PsychedelicFerret you should get your history fixed. the song first appeared in 1954-55, 1955 had 4 versions that year by 4 different singers.

Yep, my bad :) guess i remembered wrong :)
RB's version is my favorite so far.
@@PsychedelicFerret it's all fine.
The original was from a REALLY BAD movie...👴
Does not get any better than this ,a truly class performance.
I just love the reaction on your face as you first hear Bobby's voice and those precious three words, "oh, my love". Holding heart's close for 55 years. ❤️
We could tell you were impressed by the first time he hits "that note" and all I could think of was, "Wait until the end."
I know, right?
This is the version played the most. No one can top Bobby Hatfield!
These guys were legendary back in late 50s early 60s you can feel the song when they sing not just this song but every song their wasn't anybody could even come close to these guys
Yes thats the resl singer. It truly a peice of art. This was what my dad listened to born in 1944.
ANGEL of song - Bobby Hatfield...an sweetly unearthly yet powerful VOICE that captivates endlessly!
I love that tiny little smile at the very end.
It's like he is saying 'yeah, I liked that'.
The song was from the movie "Unchained'; about a prisoner who is trying to decide between escape or serving his time.
the music of the 60s vs the music of today... is the difference between love and lust
That is spot on, sir.
The Righteous Brothers, King of blue-eyed soul.
This song hits the heart! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Are you related to the Isaacs, southern Gospel/bluegrass family, a Christian Jewish family from southern Ohio. The grandparents were holocaust survivors. As a matter of fact. The lead singer is Sonya.

Laurent Gagnon - The Marines were from MCAS El Toro, and Bill Medley & Bobby Hatfield were from Santa Ana & Anaheim, not Watts.
They did NOT start in the early 50s. They started out of high school in '58 or '59. They are not from Watts. They are Southern California boys. Look the surfer dude part. But voices straight out of soul church.
Watts is southern California
Give me goose bumps every time I hear them sing.

It was a rough day today. This video made me smile. Thank you for your beautiful reaction to this classic.god bless
Hell, pause and thumbs up just for the hilarious intro. Now I'll watch the rest.
When music had true soul.
Even the background music plays into the lyrics and creates a story for the emotions
Yes he is. He was madly in love and with a special woman that that had stole his heart. He wrote that just foe her to show and tell her he was coming home to her and not to worry hw would be there. His song was from the heart for thus woman.
My mother cried every night that I can remember as a child
..every my
.
I had to watch the intro at least 5 times before I ever got to the reaction! Very funny!!
As near to an angel as you'll ever hear
I've seen so many women put there hand on there chest like they might have a heart attack listening to this song lol Love the reaction!
Yes, this is Bobby Hatfield. Unfortunately, not with us today.
But what a blessing to us .

I love your opening and your videos. ❤️💕❤️
a beautiful man to listen to and a beautiful man to look at...
This is one half of the Righteous Brothers. Yes, original singer
He sang 20 notes, an octave and a half. Great singers today can sign a full octave if they get lucky. He was a once in a lifetime voice.

Glad you enjoyed one of my favorite songs. Nice reaction
That intro really made my day. Fantastic! Still laughing :)
They are amazing!!
This song is in the movie Ghost. one of the best love stories ever made. Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze.
Bobby's five-octave voice was a lethal weapon.
