I was 6 years old at that time. By the time I teenager I fell in love with their music every sense. Two blue-eyed handsome tall men what voice of an Angel. I wonder whose listen to the music like today in 2023. Bobby Hatfield you will always remain in our hearts. Going to soon but never forgotten Rest in paradise 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️❤️
We are so grateful we can hear them today as we did when they and we were young. They were among the greatest singly or together. Bobby has some wonderful singles like Somewhere, He, My prayer, and together You’ll never walk alone, Soul and Inspiration, Dream on and Bring it on home to me (Bobby has Bill smiling), There is more and all terrific. And it is 2024, they are still great.
@doloresschultz8393 , I have to respectfully disagree. Some of the songs sound so much better with Bills Voice as well. Bill was/is amazing in his own right. I am not downing Bobby in anyway, seperately they were amazing, but, the sound they created together placed them in a whole nother league.
True Bobby Hatfield was the tenor voice and Bill Melody was the baritone voice they shouldn't have blended together but they did and it was pure magic. This is one of the greatest duo's in all time
I will never forget seeing this on TV as a teenager. It was amazing. I must admit it is still thrilling. Nobody could ever match this sound and harmony. And oh man, that Bill Medley baritone. Bobby's falsetto.
Stationed in Viet Nam in 65-66 we played this album so much we wore the 78 out. We use to play this after a patrol it calmed us down and mage us think of home.
Melissa Ward here. This is the best live of them I believe. Control and harmony is off the charts . It's as if they are singing as one. Love this song and performance.
I saw them perform when I was a teenager, my mother had to go with me. And I left her sitting in her seat while I went to take pictures, I am 61 now and I still have them. Bill and Bobby were the best!!!!!!
you are right. just once in our lives will we ever hear two voices and harmony like the righteous bros. am so lucky to have grown up listening to these two amazing guys and you just wouldn't understand unless you grew up in the sixties. Melissa and David ward here.
I grew up from little 4 year old kid to my first year as a teenager from 60-69 so I sort of grew up as sorts in this amazing decade of the 1960s. Before Hall & Oates there was Medley & Hatfeild . 60s Blue Eyed Soul.
I grew up (born in 1955) with an older sister who attended the Beatles concert at the Hollywood Bowl...she exposed me to so many riches in the incredible world of '60's music... I really don't know how to express to my kids or grand kids what the music of that era meant and still means.. The Righteous Brothers..... listening to them (again and again) brings me to my knees in gratitude for their talent. I only hope that each of them, in this world or the next, know how much they are valued.
Always loved this song, and noone could sing it like these two, they make you feel it inside and two of the greatest singers ever, there voices blend so beautiful together! RIP Bobby! Wish you were still here you sang with so much feeling and put your whole soul&spirit into it. Simply the Best!
They had three big hits in this vein, You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin', You're My Soul and Inspiration, and this one, Just Once In My Life. Lovin' Feelin' at one time was the most-played single in the history of radio and is undoubtedly their biggest hit. But it can't stand up to this one in my opinion. When Bill says "Just do this for me!" and Bobby screams "BABY"!!! that's the end of it right there as far as I'm concerned.
Bobby was the icing in the middle of the cake you didn't expect to find. What an awesome voice and spectacular delivery he had. RIP Bobby Hatfield you are missed.
Love the exquisite harmonies, the back and forth singing between the RBs. Very disappointed Bobby Hatfield's magical vocals are once again relegated to the chorus. A colossal waste of talent. 💔
I’ve noticed, The Righteous bros didn’t record a lot of albums, but The albums they did record were all hits!!!! Love to see two guys sing, That’s real music there singing harmony’s to. Great post! ....
One of the best recordings ever made!!! Listen to how this song travels ..,..the voices, lyrics and orchestral musical intensity. Phil Spector, producer !!! A Masterpiece of sound !!!
This is my theme song for my life God please dont let me down For Once In My Life Let Me Get What I Want..... i want to show chris my son im not just a dreamer i can make my dreams into realities.
Oh Denise! Don't ever sell yourself short!! God deals in absolute perfection, not junk!! We've all been there at some point in our lives, and sometimes we visit that place from time to time! But it's only a temporary situation, we're eternal! Your son will come to a place of understanding in his life when the moment is right!! We are all experiencing probably the Darkest times in Man's history on this earth!! The only!!! Way through this is together ❤️ I hope this has been of some encouragement to you!!
Love these guys! They were so awesome no matter what song they were singing! I have been listening to them the early 60's. I have all of vinyl record albums in my collection. ❤❤❤
I miss those days of music of the 60s.From the Beatles to. Aretha, and all in between. What a good time, for music. It was, Beautiful. Glad I was there . Peace Everyone
These 60's songs I just love the string section! The walker brother, Gene pitney amazing! You can't hear the strings much hear as it live but they are prominent in the studio version.
The sixties were my favorite era of music don't get me wrong I like some of the music today but the song my girl I wanna hold your hand just once in my life and so many others still sound so good ageless and times less everyone (SMILE)
Mayby you are right, but after reading bills book i think bobby never knews how great he was. To me, he was the heart of the duo and billy will never see this. From GER
There's a lot of things I want A lot of things that I'd like to be But girl I don't forsee a rags to riches story for me It's just one little thing I got to make come true It's just one round I've got to win I can't be a loser with you Baby baby just once in my life I'm gonna get what I want girl don't let me down Just once in my life let me hold on to The good thing I found don't let me down Baby say that you'd be staying Cause I couldn't face the day if you weren't here by my side And if you went away then I'd be left without any pride I've given up on schemes cause everyone fell through I've given up so many things don't ask me to give up on you And baby, baby just once in my life I'm gonna get what I want girl don't let me down Just once in my life Let me hold on to the good thing I found don't let me down Baby say that you'd be staying That old pot of gold ain't so easy to find But if you'll stand by me Girl I'll keep peace of mind I can't give you the world But I'll work hard for you girl I'll work hard, everyday, all my life If you'll say you won't leave me Baby don't leave me Please don't leave me Baby don't leave me Just do this for me baby
Da gibt es auch einen Song, den sie singen, wo Bobby den Sprechteil hat.....Hart Inspiration oder so ähnlich.....wenn Bobby das dann spricht.....ich glaub da fühlt sich bei seinem.....Baby.... am Anfang, jede Frau angesprochen und ist verzückt.❤❤❤❤❤❤
SHINDIG!!! My favorite show! Loved all the great talent and the dancers! I wasn't allowed to go to the Friday night dances in high school, but I learned to dance by watching the girls on Shindig. My senior year we had dances during lunch hour and one of my guy pals asked me to dance to Little Latin Lupe Lou. Boy! Everyone was surprised at all my Shindig moves! That was 1965 and 20 years later at the high school reunion everyone still remembered shy little Anna dancing in the middle of the of the dance floor. Lol! Great music and great memories!
What are you talking about???? Bobby Hatfield's 4-octave vocal range is acknowledged and celebrated among musicians, vocalists, vocal coaches, critics and of course, the listeners (except for you, apparently) world-wide. I'm not sure if you're tone deaf or your musical taste resides in your posterior - but you are dead wrong (not a matter of opinion).
Incredible, Truly Incredible, they were in a class of their own!!
Yes, they really were. A duet like none other.
Good Looks, talent and professionalisim all rolled up into this duo. We Boomers were fortunate to grow up with this talent. RIP Bobby Hatfield.
Sadly, I wasn't even born yet, but I have been a fan for years.
I was 6 years old at that time. By the time I teenager I fell in love with their music every sense. Two blue-eyed handsome tall men what voice of an Angel.

These two guys were so classy, gifted singers and held their audiences for decades.
Bobby's singing c
is always what makes their records exceptional.HE IS SIMPLY Great.

Yes, they were. Live them❤
Bill Medley
Love them?
50's and 60's. The best of times, and with Bill and Bobby, what more could we have asked for?
Just perfect harmony!!! What a great pair of singers.... Bill's soft thunder and Bobby's beautiful tenor
我幼童時期聽過，這是恢復我久遠的記憶！當時聽來感覺是來自神秘幽谷或是外太空！反正在遙遠的臺灣，我們覺得遙遠的外國話最先想到的是美國！（我那時真的之有幾歲而已！沒想到現在我59歲，應該說是60歲了，才知道那時這兩位大帥哥的美妙歌聲！）好可惜，沒有早些認識這對搭檔！因為我聽西洋歌曲比較的是Bee Gees及後來的MJ.
Wow, this was excellent. Bill and Bobby's voices compliment each other so well. Love The Righteous Brothers forever 🥰
Music at it's very best!
I am digging these old black and white videos. Righteous Brothers are so handsome and sound super sweet ❤.
Another wonderful song by The Rightous Brother's. I just Love all Their Songs. Thank you for sharing and posting.

The absolute best blending of voices that you will ever find
I remember watching this live on tv with my 18 yr old sister, me mesmerized and her with tears streaming down her face...
great song executed by 2 of the best voices in the business

For an example of the range of Bobby's outrageous talent you really should hear him do Summertime!
Never has and never will be a pair of voices such as these two. Not another performer out there can can do what these two could do.
drenched in soul & emotion - an amazing performance from two superb singers RIP Bobby Hadfield
Two great singers, totally different but perfectly matched! Absolutely magnificent!
So glad many of these (and other) performances by artists are preserved on film. It adds SO much to see them as they sing.
You on’t have to have grown up in the sixties to feel the love and passion in this song. Just have the right person in your arms.
OMG. I thought I was a big fan, but I've never heard this. It's stunning. Wow, wow, wow...
Bobby Bobby Bobby I love your sweet voice and delivery. No one can sing 'BABY' like Bobby.
I have also thought that no one can sing "Baby" like Bobby Hatfield. I love how he my favorite singer sings it in my favorite song "For Your Love". 💜
Sad to realize how fortunate we boomers were and we took it for granted.
I LOVE THESE TWO - so many memories. Makes me sad that Bobby isn't here anymore - all my kids grew up listening to them.
I grew up listening to them, they're a fabulous Duo. Still have some of their albums, I just need a record player to play them on.
I saw them perform when I was a teenager, my mother had to go with me. And I left her sitting in her seat while I went to take pictures, I am 61 now and I still have them. Bill and Bobby were the best!!!!!!
One of the best duo's ever
Same level as The Everly Brothers or Simon and Garfunkel

Just pure and natural singers,such emotion in Bill's voice it goes right thru me. They made a great team
Absolutely Wonderful Music by the two of them. Thank you
Bill says it’s his favourite song but for me it’s Bobby who turns it fantastic with his embellishments ❤
It's my favorite too

Auch später im alter, hat Bobby noch mit so viel Gefühl gesungen😊😊😊
Wow man,Wow! They just killed it baby,that's all there is to it!
I love this song.. brings chills to me.. every time.
So beautiful and full of emotion.
One of Mann/Weil's best songs.

This is really a beautiful performance. So touching and vulnerable. RB were really amazing.
And I would add a beautifully written song by carol king
Seldom heard but one of their best, no question
Love the exquisite harmonies, the back and forth singing between the RBs. Very disappointed Bobby Hatfield's magical vocals are once again relegated to the chorus. A colossal waste of talent. 💔
Their very best
The best
Bill said it was his favorite song ever
Each song of theirs is the best.
@@user-dl7hn6kd1m I agree
What a pair
Me and my lady went to see these guys 3 times in concert at the warwick tent in warwick rhode island in the 70's.Great show.
Love these guys,Bobby had such a high vocal quality with his voice!
Astonishing vocal chemistry. What a happy accident that they found each other.
I may be wrong, but I think Barry had something to do it, told Bill that Bobby was a great singer. Or something like that.
I’ve noticed, The Righteous bros didn’t record a lot of albums, but The albums they did record were all hits!!!! Love to see two guys sing, That’s real music there singing harmony’s to. Great post! ....
My favorite song by the legendary Righteous Brothers!
One of the best recordings ever made!!! Listen to how this song travels ..,..the voices, lyrics and orchestral musical intensity. Phil Spector, producer !!!
A Masterpiece of sound !!!
Pure UNMITIGATED. SOUL 🙏🏽💚😇💯‼️‼️‼️👏🏾👏🏼👏🏿👏🏻
Beautiful song, oh Bobby 😍😍😍😍

I miss those days of music of the 60s.From the Beatles to. Aretha, and all in between. What a good time, for music. It was, Beautiful. Glad I was there . Peace Everyone
Even though Bobby might not have the largest part his voice shines through the entire song
This is a beautiful song...largely underrated. This and Soul's Inspiration and Blue Birds over White Cliffs of Dover...top RB songs!
+bluegardenia29 it reached the top 10, but is rarely heard today. I also love 'White Cliffs of Dove.'
MY FAVORITE SINGERS FOR DECADES. . . . .
Amazing vocalist… I love the Righteous Brothers
These 60's songs I just love the string section! The walker brother, Gene pitney amazing!
You can't hear the strings much hear as it live but they are prominent in the studio version.
A timeless song.
Pure Talent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Blue eyed soul

To this date they are still fabulous
Around 245 is just beautiful !!
Love this song. Great duo.
One of my favorite songs.
Bill said he thought this was their favorite song
Unbelievable! The Best !
Great song and performance! Carol King wrote it I believe.
Zwei großartige Sänger.doe man nie vergisst.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love this footage makes me think of golden memories when my parents were young even long before I was born.
these guys were great
Underrated Song 😖
am so happy I was a teenager when these songs came out and I am still hearing them and all the other artist of that time when music meant so much...
Medley's greatest HIT!
the most amazing.
Best of the best RIP Bobby Hatfield.
2:37
Bobby is impressed and says “Okay, Okay” ❤
Wow never noticed that! Bill REALLY raised the bar there and Bobby followed suit, making a beautifully emotional and soulful half minute there.
Mayby you are right, but after reading bills book i think bobby never knews how great he was. To me, he was the heart of the duo and billy will never see this. From GER
I always thought he was mouthing "right" meaning he agreed with the sentiment. He would work hard for her.
They are just great makes my life worth living after losing my hubby may you goon xxx
Magic
I am so happy to ezperience the awesome Righteous Brothers ❤.
Every woman wants to hear this from her man❤
There's a lot of things I want
A lot of things that I'd like to be
But girl I don't forsee a rags to riches story for me
It's just one little thing I got to make come true
It's just one round I've got to win
I can't be a loser with you
Baby baby just once in my life
I'm gonna get what I want girl don't let me down
Just once in my life let me hold on to
The good thing I found don't let me down
Baby say that you'd be staying
Cause I couldn't face the day if you weren't here by my side
And if you went away then I'd be left without any pride
I've given up on schemes cause everyone fell through
I've given up so many things don't ask me to give up on you
And baby, baby just once in my life
I'm gonna get what I want girl don't let me down
Just once in my life
Let me hold on to the good thing I found don't let me down
Baby say that you'd be staying
That old pot of gold ain't so easy to find
But if you'll stand by me
Girl I'll keep peace of mind
I can't give you the world
But I'll work hard for you girl
I'll work hard, everyday, all my life
If you'll say you won't leave me
Baby don't leave me
Please don't leave me
Baby don't leave me
Just do this for me baby
Thank you Carole King
Excellent
Top shelf stuff.
And, naturally, written by Carole King!
Carole’s music; husband Gerry Goffin lyrics … always great
Da gibt es auch einen Song, den sie singen, wo Bobby den Sprechteil hat.....Hart Inspiration oder so ähnlich.....wenn Bobby das dann spricht.....ich glaub
da fühlt sich bei seinem.....Baby.... am Anfang, jede Frau angesprochen

wonderful 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Probably my favorite song of all time
Makes me wish I could go home
Great song written by Carole King
THE BEST.
great singers
Beautiful
I think Bobby was the biggest part of the righteous brothers ❤

This has GOT to be a clip from ABC-TV's "Shindig".
A show long on legend but short on it's original run.
