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!!!
"You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling" Is with both brothers and will give you that same feeling again. You guys loved the Bee Gees because of that feeling. It's fun watching you guys Love these Love songs from my past.
You mentioned the movie, "Dirty Dancing" in the video. Bill Medley, the Righteous Brother that didn't sing on this song, sang the theme song to "Dirty Dancing", called "The Time Of My Life" as a duet with Jenifer Warnes. And "Unchained Melody" was featured in the movie, "Ghost".
This is a true love song that couples love to slow dance to…this is pure talent..no auto tune. He was sick with a cold when he was singing this. And it was the first time his mother was in the audience during his performance. You both had the look of love that this song evokes in all of us…
No one can match Bobby Hatfield's voice. His voice came straight out of Heaven. Now you need to hear them sing "You've Lost That Loving Feeling" and "You'll Never Walk Alone" They will blow your mind wide open on these 2 songs
You've lost that loving feeling Just once in my life You'll never walk alone Soul and Inspiration Crying in the Chapel Ebb Tide And the most amazing is Bobby Hatfield "Summertime" live performance in 1965. Bobby will blow your mind with his soulful vocal range.
This song was originally sung for the prison movie, "Unchained". It was about an incarcerated man struggling to either do his time honorably or escape and be with his love. Bobby Hatfield took it to another level with his performance.
Unchained Melody: Bobby Hatfield live performance. The Andy Williams Show- Episode #4.5 Episode aired: Monday, Oct 25, 1965: Robert Lee Hatfield (August 10, 1940 - November 5, 2003) Bobby Hatfield, who had a higher countertenor voice to Bill Medley’s, William Thomas Medley (born September 19, 1940) baritone, sang lead on this track. It was his idea to record it, since Medley and Hatfield were each allowed to choose a song to sing as a solo vocalist on their albums. As Medley tells it, Hatfield knew the song well, and was a big fan of the Roy Hamilton and Al Hibbler versions of the song. *In Nov. 2003 Hatfield died of a heart attack at age 63. The Righteous Brothers version was a huge hit, but it was recorded with far more modest expectations. Phil Spector considered it album filler and released it as a B-side. The single had "Unchained Melody," with no producer credit on the label, as the flip to Gerry Goffin and Carole King's "Hung on You," but many DJs preferred "Unchained Melody" and played that one instead. This infuriated Spector, who subsequently left no doubt (actually calling DJs telling them to play “Hung On You” not “Unchained Melody “)as to which side of a Philles single was the A-side. * The famous climax of this song where Bobby Hatfield sings the high "I need your love" line wasn't how the song was written. In an interview with Bill Medley, he explained that Hatfield did two takes of the song, then left. He would often reconsider his performance and come back later to change it, and that's what he did on this track, returning to ask Medley if he could make an edit. This was no easy task, since with a maximum of four tracks to work with, you had to record over part of the original take, but Medley accommodated and Hatfield delivered that soaring vocal line. Said Medley: "I punched that in and before he left he said, 'No, I can do it better. ’And I said, 'No, you can't.' [Laughs] And I think it's a big part of that song." * This was released on Philles Records, Phil Spector's label. Spector, known for his "Wall Of Sound" technique, did not produce this - Bill Medley did. In a 2007 statement to the Forgotten Hits newsletter, Medley said: "You have to remember that I was producing our stuff before Phil Spector... I mean I produced 'Little Latin Lupe Lu,' 'My Babe' and all that stuff. Then when we went with Phil, Phil asked me if I would produce the albums because it was too time consuming for him to produce the entire albums. So he was going to do the singles and I would do the album. And so that's how that happened and that's how I produced 'Unchained Melody,' which Phil Spector apparently now takes credit for. He can have the credit. And I'm not a producer. I know how to produce. But it's obviously not a Spector production. 'Unchained Melody' was never intended to be the single... it was produced to be on the album. It was put on the B side of a Phil Spector single 'Hung On You' and the minute it was released 'Unchained Melody' just went through the roof." Hatfield’s rendition of “Unchained Melody” although not the original, is the ‘gold standard’.

You two are so cute together! This song got a resurgence in the movie “Ghost”. It’s such a beautiful song, timeless too. Thank you for reacting to it! Two other songs you’d probably enjoy are “smoke gets in your eyes” (The Platters), and “Stand by me” (Ben E King)
Y'all have to listen to more of them. I was born in 65 and grew up with this and you both look great together and to keep that feeling together keep listening to them you can't go wrong ❤️
I am a Boomer . I am so glad I grew up to listen to the best songs of rock and pop in history. Nobody outdoes Bobby in this performance. He set The bar so high. I have never heard anyone equal it in any song. There are a lot that came close to the bar but None is better than Bobby. He earned the gold medal of all time for male singers.
I think these deep voices are part of the reason women are grateful that there are men on this planet. I really had to try hard to accept the fact that he is performing all 4 parts !!!
I read a post that said the Righteous Brother were responsible for an extra billion people in the world. They were known as Blue Eyed Soul, both of them, not just Bobby. I grew up to these songs and I can tell you every colour woman was in love with these two voices. Over 670 singers recorded this song worldwide including Elvis and I love Elvis. No one can take this one away from Bobby. Now hear them both with You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling. Thank you.
Hello Dessi & Cam, since you've gotten so many great suggestions for more songs by "The Righteous Brothers" in the comments, I'd like to suggest another group from the same time period, if interested. "Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons - Who Loves You (Official Music Video)" (by the channel: RHINO) --This song is from their album by the same name "Who Loves You" released in 1975. Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons were an American vocal quartet from Newark, New Jersey in 1960. They were considered pop-rock, pop, soul and doo-wop. This was fun I really enjoyed rocking out with you both. Thanks for sharing.
Dessi & Cam TV,Bobby Hatfield (8/10/1940-11/5/2003) has the most acclaim and popular version of this song. Comes from the 1955 movie "UNCHAINED".Check out the origin and history of this classic song, which has been sung by Elvis, his good friend Roy Hamilton, Al Hibler, Kenny Rodgers,LeAnn Rimes, Sam Cooke, and the Manhattan Transfer. Nice reaction.
What isn't often mentioned, in this performance, he had a heavy head cold. No such thing as Auto-Tune in those days, this is just pure talent. 💯💕 This song resurfaced in the 1990 movie "Ghost" with Patrick Swayze, Demi Moor &, Whoopi Goldberg, in the iconic "pottery" scene. Well worth a watch... especially with your girlfriend. LOL
Breath control and phrasing mastered by Bobby. Of course, hitting the right note spot-on, not "searching" with his voice. And a little bit of opera at the very end note?
Bobby Hatfield was one of the greatest singers ever. This is the live version the studio version is a little different but awesome like this. When he teams up with Bill Medley they belt out great sings as You lost that Lovin Feeling, Soul and Inspiration, Just once in my Life and more .To me their the greatest duo ever. They were inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame and surely deserved it. Best of success on yr channel
Unchained melody was used in Ghost, you must that love and feeling was Top Gun. And Bill Medly if the righteous brothers did time of my life for dirty dancing.
Check out their song Soul and Inspiration. The other Righteous Bro -- the one with the deeper voice, is the guy who sang Time Of our LIves in Dirty Dancing.
If you want to move the clock ahead to around 1989, there's a band called Stealheart that has a lot of rock love ballads. Try "She's Gone ", and "I'll Never Let You Go". The songs are well done and the singer has one of the best voices ever.
Great reaction you two! I'd like to suggest Journey - Don't Stop Believin' (Live 1981: Escape Tour) or 'Who's Cryin' Now' from the same concert in Houston. All are on TH-cam.
Check out both "brothers" singing You'll Never Walk Alone, Bill adds a fantastic baritone to the mix. You should have plugged in that Lava Lamp, it fits perfectly with the time period.
It's looks like he doesn't even try! Amazing! ALSO: If you want to hear a modern mesmerizing bass singer listen to Geoff Castellucci perform "Far over the Misty Mountains Cold" and it is stunning that he performs all 4 parts !!!
Dessi, you said you said you like songs that make you sway. you should listen to Bobby Rydell sing "Sway." You should also listen to the Righteous Brothers sing "I just wanna make love to you."
Welcome to the wonderful world of what We “boomers” call blue eyed soul. And this performance was during the height of the Vietnam War, many women were waiting for their men to come home safely.
Their parents were in the audience! They hated the pink outfits. I love his look at the end thinking “nailed it!” 😊 They used it in the movie Ghost. This was actually a cover, originally sung by Todd Duncan… th-cam.com/video/G11mDi_LXe8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=vVGbfXubwqjZ5_L8
This song was sung in a 1955 in a movie about a man who only had a few months left of his prison sentence, but wanted to go home to his woman so badly that he was thinking of breaking out of prison. Terrible movie, but great song once Bobbie arranged the song as his own. Side note, Bobbie had been sick all night and wasn't sure if he could perform but knowing (his mom or dad?) was going to be in the audience inspired him to perform no matter what.
You might want to have the screen bigger you as a couple is awesome but you are reacting to videos might want it to be at least a third of the screen not 1 16th just my reaction Wild bill
The very best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This was LIVE in 1965. No effects, no autotune. Just pure raw talent
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!!!
Bobby was 25 years old when he TOTALLY NAILED this song. His parents were in the audience weeping with joy.
"You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling"
Is with both brothers and will give you that same feeling again. You guys loved the Bee Gees because of that feeling. It's fun watching you guys Love these Love songs from my past.
Thank You gor giving it a listen. Bobby was BEYOND INCREDIBLE. SERIOUSLY
You mentioned the movie, "Dirty Dancing" in the video. Bill Medley, the Righteous Brother that didn't sing on this song, sang the theme song to "Dirty Dancing", called "The Time Of My Life" as a duet with Jenifer Warnes. And "Unchained Melody" was featured in the movie, "Ghost".
This was popular when i was a teenager and we loved it. The righteous brothers were cool. Thanks for playing.
You can't go wrong with this classic performance, all done live on TV, I was in my first year of college. Great reaction.
This is a true love song that couples love to slow dance to…this is pure talent..no auto tune. He was sick with a cold when he was singing this. And it was the first time his mother was in the audience during his performance. You both had the look of love that this song evokes in all of us…
Wow that’s amazing ! ❤️ and we enjoyed it so much !
And just think, that was live with no autotune. Pure talent. Good job with the reaction.
No one can match Bobby Hatfield's voice. His voice came straight out of Heaven. Now you need to hear them sing "You've Lost That Loving Feeling" and "You'll Never Walk Alone" They will blow your mind wide open on these 2 songs

Greatest Love Song of all time
Looks like this is still a baby maker song 😊
Pure blue eyed soul.
Blue eyed soul. I was probably conceived to this as I was born a little less than a year later to this song release.
Love this heartfelt reaction. And, entirely off topic, your kids are going to be the most beautiful humans of all time.
Blue eyed soul. Love it
Beautiful music with beautiful people! I look forward to more :)

Listen to "The Shadow of Your Smile" sung by Andy Williams if you like dreamy, romantic music that you can sway to.
Loved your reaction guys, from the land down under OZ
Unchained melody was used in Ghost, you must that love and feeling was Top Gun. And Bill Medly if the righteous brothers did time of my life for dirty dancing.

Welcome to the wonderful world of what We “boomers” call blue eyed soul. And this performance was during the height of the Vietnam War, many women were waiting for their men to come home safely.
No auto tune
I''ll give ya'll $20 for the lava lamp...you ain't using it. 🤣
Hahah 😂😂 you know what’s funny ! I watched the video back and was like dang I forgot to turn it on 😂😂
Their parents were in the audience! They hated the pink outfits.

Tom Jones I´ll never fall in love again live 1967.
All the way up to autotune, that's how singers performed. REAL singers. Great reaction.
The song was written for a prison movie. But it's most famous for the movie Ghost with Whoopi Goldberg Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore .
Check out Janis Joplin's "Ball and Chain live at Monterey Pop ". It will leave you with your jaw on the floor. GUARANTEED.
Funny you said Dirty Dancing his partner sang The Time of My Life with Jennifer Warne......
Try I'm your puppet
And Sitting in the park
This was called blue eyed soul or panty dropper music.
And the movie chained and the song sung sucked! Only BOBBY did that song justice. RIP.❤❤
You might want to have the screen bigger you as a couple is awesome but you are reacting to videos might want it to be at least a third of the screen not 1 16th just my reaction Wild bill
