"I'm not about to let you go around singing like that, and remain white." 😊
I'm dead🤣
LMAO
@Salem 😂😂😂
This is 💯
@Salem the Chinese delegation is still holding tight to Wu Tang though 🤣
I was in high school then. Here's you,smoking your joint, and me smoking my pipe and listening to this old time song. Hallelujah
One of the greatest vocal performances of all time.
The greatest cover vision of all time
#Forreal 🌹
Panties floating away and folding themselves’ had me rolling, not gonn lie
Truly one of the good greatest reaction comments ever, if not the best.
Best laugh I had in all reactions, fabulous.
"Floating panties". Exactly what I imagined as a horny young boy, hearing this song played on the radio. "If only I could sing with that voice." I thought. But I couldn't.
Me too, lol!
Yeah, that one got me as well.
👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
He's said in interviews, that he was super nervous that night, because his parents were in the audience....LOL
195511SM I saw the look of relief when he hit the highest note. A smile as if to say ‘that showed you’
That adorable little lip bite at the end !!! He knows he nailed it !!!
I couldn’t tell. Phenomenal performance!! 🔥🔥🔥
Susan Gordon that was so cute
I really felt that too
This is Bobby's song. No one sang it like he did. I watched him sing it when I was 15 yrs old. I'm 72 and I still get goosebumps when I hear him. So handsome and that voice was awesome! Love, love, love til I die! 💞💞💞💞
Thank you for inducting them to be your Brothers, you are Righteous.
Bobby was proof that soul has no color. Love your reactions.
What kills me is that this was live. No auto-tune or studio fixing. This guy is amazing.
Lori N it’s incredible. Ban auto tune then we will know where the real talent lies 😂
@@personalcheeses8073 well sadly today the all the music industry is producing is industry music...
He's Bobby Hatfield.. The other is Bill Medley. .
Everyone has a God giving voice as a stagehand I'ma let the pros do it ljs
Bobby was autotuned .... in utero
I've been under a rock, I think! I just stumbled upon this and I have watched several more since then! I'm 52 yo. And I have found a new love for the Bee Gees! They really are remarkable! You are such a joy to watch! I love you! 🥰
This was my dad's favorite song. He died when I was 17 so every time I hear it I think of him. One of the best songs ever written, recorded, and performed. Period.
At the end, that little smile, he knew he nailed it.
That coy little smile after he KNEW he killed it gets me everytime lol
Yes! That little lip bite at the end says it all. Inimitable voice!
The world's greatest love song! Thank you
FYI Bobby and Bill tossed a coin to see who would get this solo. Bobby won, thank god.
EVERYBODY WON !!!!
Actually, when the producers wanted them to record Unchained Bill opted out because he didn't think it would be a hit. ~ as told by Bill Medley to Andy Williams just before Bobby sang.
If Bill sang an octave lower he may have handle it. But.Bobby's voice was pure gold
?? Good story but I dunno if it's true. Bobby had been singing this for a long time (maybe years) in his solo act. B4 they got together. That's why it was so effortless. He had mastered this song, he could do it in his sleep.
@@roymerritt348 I think Bill was just joking on that one.
This is the Late Bobby Hatfield's song NO ONE can beat this guy not even Elvis. Bobby's range is stunning and almost unbelievable.
🇦🇺🇦🇺👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
No one should try to be Bobby. His voice is one of a kind. But if you want to hear someone sing this song without an ounce of disrespect to the original try Marc Martel's amazing cover. th-cam.com/video/0gEml07j9bA/w-d-xo.html
@@marcfan1822 Nice voice but not on a par with Bobby's performance.
Elvis couldn’t beat it, but he did alright.
True I'm an ELVIS mark but Bobby got this one.
LOVE Bobby, and no one will ever sing like him; however, there is now another young singer whose range and beautiful, unique voice may very well outreach any male singer, and that is Dimash. People have a tendency these days to think there are no real extraordinary vocalists anymore, but if you take the time to really look for them, they ARE there, and Dimash may very well be the best there is.
No falsetto. Pure tenor. Vocal teachers have been amazed at the range of notes Hatfield hit in that single song. Oh...did I say no autotune. Yes. No autotune. The man was amazing. Another amazing song in this realm would be Roy Orbison's "Crying" from the original single 1961 release. Masterful.
Great reaction Mr. Video -- always enjoyable.
John LaStrada YES HE NEEDS TO DO ROY
When I was 12 I could sing this song pitch perfect...by the time I was 15 i had to jump falcetto, but I could drop the low parts an octave and make it a fun jump back to falcetto. Now I'm 31 and it would take a miracle to get my voice back up in that register.
There were 20 different notes sung by Bobby in this performance ending with G5 in head voice with resonance and vibrato. In his Shindig live performance earlier that year, Bobby sang up to A5, couple of notes short of the whistle register. On his 1971 solo southern rock/blues album, Messin' in Muscle Shoals, Bobby hits several whistle notes including E6. He sings soprano range comfortably.
@@WildIronLizzy WOW! Hearing that I am even more amazed by Mr. Hatfield. I cry every time I listen to this song and the goosebumps raise up!! RIP sweet man.
Ask your granny if she likes this song.
AN ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE
"I'm not about to let you go around singing like that, and remain white." You so damn funny!!! Thank you for my morning giggles!!!!
I think I have seen more people react to this song than any other and I never get tired of it. Pure Raw beautiful emotion!
Bobby Hatfield is considered the greatest singer of all time...He could hit any note and would never strain to reach them...He's actually unbelievable and was meant to sing this classic.
Tommy H No no, there was a competition. He won. Bill and Ted used their phone booth to gather everyone. Even Freddie Mercury cried when Bobby sang. Luciano Pavarotti just walked out because he couldn’t compete. Zack Golthag from Earth 2.6 shut both his mouths. It was amazing. My great great granddaughter told me about it 30 years from now.
@@VinzClorthokeymasterofGozer Try Harry Nilsson "Without You" it's at least in this class.
@Tommy H I tend to agree. Bobby did have it all, tho.
It's the way he sings though. The way he makes it look like he's not even trying.
@Tommy H Oh, there is! Bobby Hatfield is great, but he is only the second greatest singer of all time. Clearly the greatest ever is....Shane. His skill so outdistances anyone else, that few have heard of him. Only the most trained musicians can appreciate his level of artistry and sheer charisma on stage. Shane has been seen by few, but all have been affected by his colossal talent. You hear his influence when Mariah Carey hits her stratospheric whistle tones, perfectly in tune. You feel his presence when Ray Charles would sing a low, gravelly blues song, making you cringe with angst. You sense his aura when Luciano Pavarotti would embody Calaf, challenging Turondot to love him. In this rarely seen video recording, previously known only to Shane's most hardcore underground fans...I present to you.........Shane!

One of the WORLDS greatest voices ,so gifted 😊
Just a man and his mic no autotune! Blue eyed soul
I saw you get dreamy eyed. The Vietnam war began in the mid 1950s through to the early 70s. Bobby Hatfield's version of Unchained Melody was released in 1965. Many lonely and scared soldier boys hoped their girl back home was still waiting
The war was from around 1961 till 75....
@@mumbles215 Wikipedia: The Vietnam War was a conflict in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia from 1 November 1955 to the fall of Saigon on 30 April 1975. History.com: The Vietnam War and active U.S. involvement in the war began in 1954.The New York Times publishes a series of articles detailing leaked Defense Department documents about the war, known as the Pentagon Papers. The report reveals the U.S. government had repeatedly and *secretly* increased U.S. involvement in the war
Xcris crosX -
It Wasn’t a war in the beginning.
It was a Police Action.
Lyndon Johnson escalated it
after JFK was assassinated.
The poignancy of this song was truly appropriate for the time and circumstances. So many young men away from home and thinking of the girl they loved, hoping she would be there when they got home.
I remember when my late, father was in Vietnam, our mother would dit by the TV to watch the news, Walter Cronkite, to see if our fathers name may come up, as being killed in action. This song was our late mothers, favorite song, mom listened eareato unchained melody in remembrance to our father, and here dear husband. Our father served with honor. A wounded veteran. Rest in peace mom and dad. Love you always.
One of the most perfect matches of lyrics, music, and voice that has ever been made, I think. Timeless.
I am always amazed and happy to see the younger generation love the music we 60’s grew up with. Soul/music has no color.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written.
The story goes they got their name in 1962 when an African-American Marine shouted out "That was righteous, brothers" at the end of a show.
Yes This performance was on the Andy Williams Show and Bobby tells that to Andy in the segment introducing Unchained Melody. There is some hilarious footage right afterwards with the three doing What'd I Say. Bobby Hatfield must have been relieved after solo because the humor and joy of his personality just shines through. And his vocals of course! th-cam.com/video/KGClv9GKYmo/w-d-xo.html
He suffered from stage fright plus his Mom was in the audience this night.
There are two Righteous Bros. This is Bobby Hatfield doing a live performance on the Andy Williams show 1965.There were no do overs or gimmicks Just Bobby's God given talent. Many artists before and after him have done this song but no one will ever do this song better than Bobby Hatfield. HE OWNS THIS SONG. Many fell in love to this song and with him he was gorgeous the whole package ❤. His performance was effortless, smooth and sheer perfection. Bobby passed a few years ago he's up there with Whitney Houston and all THEIR other great singers.The Righteous Bros were also known as The Blue Eyed Soul Bros because they sang from their hearts and souls every performance they ever did.
I absolutely love the song and this man's voice..
part about the panties going back to the dresser by themselves had me in stitches! I`ve so much fun watching your reactions! keep `em coming!
this song is responsible for many babies being born back then
👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
You are adorable. Bobby never fails to knock the socks off everyone who hears this. This duo fit the dub 'blue eyed soul' in every thing they did. Check them out douing 'You'll never walk alone' or Soul and Inspiration.
This is the first TH-cam reaction channel that I’m following. This dude is the real deal. Had me rolling watching this reaction video
“Lookin fresher than a bitch.” Vid hardly even started and I’m already crying. 😂😂. This is one of my favorite reactions to this performance.
Me too. One other one talked a lot about affect on women. So funny. Said clapping at end wasn't clapping. It was all the bras hitting him
100% agree, love his reactions. I grew up in Little Rock AR and hung out with some of the most fun dudes just like him.
He needs to send this reaction to some talent agents in Hollywood....
I agree ☝️ 😂😂😂😂🏆🏆🏆
Lol
This one is Bobby Hatfield... the deeper-voiced “brother” is Bill Medley.
The Righteous Brothers are smooth
Try them singing Try to Find Another Woman. Fantastic.
RIP Bobby Hatfield
@@nunchucktaylor3488 😢
Thier not. Brothers
Thank you for helping to keep bobbies spirits alive
His brother sat in a corner because he said he thought it would flop but it became such a hit. And this was all him no voice dubbing crap, no ear piece just raw talent one of best songs ever. Back then walk I any bar and this was coming out of a juke box.. and not a girl was sitting if a guy couldn't get a girl to dance to this he had major issues or to dang drunk to stand.
No one was born, who has managed to give excellence to this song as Bobby did. The best ; and that makes this song a call to musical excellence...
I'm a sixty year old white guy that is a subscriber. Keep doing it.
i dont care who sings it Bobby owns this song!!!#
Yes he does ❤❤
His voice has so much depth and color to it. A real gem. All of these years later and we still get to feel his gift.
Your reactions are priceless
This is Bobby Hatfield the other "brother" is Bill Medley. They used to sing most things together, but sometimes if one of them heard a song they loved they would do it solo. Well they both wanted to do this song so they flipped a coin. Bobby said he was really nervous because his parents were in the audience along with Bill. This has been called the best live pop performance ever. Bobby sadly died many years ago. Bill is still singing, sometimes with his daughter. Bill said in an interview once that they got their name when they were performing near a marine base in Calif. A black marine in the audience after a song yelled out "that was righteous brothers", and after the show they were meeting audience members and signing autographs etc and that same marine waited to meet them and when he was walking up to them said Hey righteous brothers. They liked it and kept it. Keep up the reacts man. Tons of great music back in the day.
That's what you call a "panty dropper."
Dude, why only 55k subscribers?
You are hands down the most entertaining music reviewer I have seen.
Wow this channel grew a lot. As it should!!! So entertaining
I know right! I love watching him react!
Love this song play it at least once a day perfection R.I.P. Bobby
They were originally called "The Paramours". While play near a Marine Base, Black Marines would shout out, "That's Righteous!" and would tell them, You are Righteous, Brother .... hence they changed their name.
Dope 🔥
Some humans can just plain sing and great music never gets old.
I love your reactions Leo, that "damn white boy!!" killed me hahaha. You deserve waaaaay more than 243k subscribers brother, you're entertaining asf. This was the first song my mother learned me to sing as a kid, lets just say I wasn't lacking female company as a teen whenever I'd bust it out at karaoke etc lol
I LOVE your reactions. This is my parent's song for each other. Going on 55 years of marriage.
One of the greatest reactions yet 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Bro i don't even need you tonight, alright? i don't even need you, i got this shit, i'm about to go up there and FUCK THEM UP, watch it on TV", i saw a documentary on the Righteous Brothers and can confirm that was the actual conversation Bobby had on the phone with Bill before this performance, and boy did he deliver LOL, man you just got yourself a new subscriber.
You’re hysterical! I was just hoping you get to the end with those high notes, that was insane! Love your comment too to the brother “ I don’t even need yo tonight,” for sure! That song was meant for him and no one could do it better!
I was 15 when I heard this in Ghost. I still get emotional. Freakin Swayze and the Righteous Brothers.
young men....pay attention, you begin to sing to your lady songs like this and a million troubles are goin' away! Perhaps the greatest love song ever!
When he bites his lower lip at the end.....it’s all over at that point!
You got it right Beth, I almost fell off the couch, when I first saw this video(sexiest move of all and I’ll bet he didn’t remember doing it because of his nerves, that night)This is and has been my favorite song of all time. I am a singer myself, so I know music and there is no one else who ever had, or should sing “Unchained Melody”, like Bobby Hatfield, he owns it, hands down!
Katherine Valadez FACTS!!
His Mom was in the audience. I think the lip bite is so cute. Like it was for her.
Katherine Valadez I’m a singer too. And my shower and car hate me for it.
I know !!!! Sweet love right there!!
Oh the reactions of the young man here - he had us in stitches! Priceless.
Beautiful, one of a kind voice!!
I love how music is colourblind , like I can like these guys just as much as bb king or hendrix
Lmao.....dude....we will keep surprising you with great music from back in the day. No auto tune, no click tracks- actual talent,facts.🎼🎶😎
He had a soothing voice and he was gorgeous
Best reaction on the internet!!! I LOVE it! So funny!
Bill Medley was clever enough to know he couldn't improve on perfection, this is the song that immortalised Bobby Hatfield. Nobody has sung it better than that.
Bobby Hatfield Is a Tough Act To Follow
I'd say impossible
There ain’t no skin color in music! Beautiful music!
Every time I watch one of your reactions, I am hugely entertained, and my mood vastly improves. And when the video is over, there's a huge smile on my face!
That’s my aim🙂
The Righteous Brothers (not related) were a duo but they often sang solo on their albums. It's been said that both of them wanted to sing this song so it was decided by a coin toss & Bobby won. :-) This is what we call blue eyed soul...The great Bobby Hatfield (RIP) - he did this in one take with a live audience, also in front of his parents, no autotune or computer aided post production enhancements - just pure talent. I was born two years after this performance, but I always heard it being played at home & on the radio. It's been one of my all time favorite songs since I was a young kid. It is considered to be one of the greatest love songs ever composed. It has been covered many times over by other great artists, but Bobby Hatfield's version is probably the most well known & beloved the world over. It was used as the main love theme for the movie GHOST starring Demi Moore, Patrick Swayze, & Whoopi Goldberg. This was definitely Bobby's signature song, as no other can match his performance - so smooth & melodic, such a one of a kind ethereal voice that can make any lady (or man) swoon.This is baby makin' music. My late uncle used to call this song "a guaranteed panty dropper" RIP Bobby Hatfield... and Uncle Bernie.
Bobby Hatfield was simply amazing.
This was my mothers favourite song and it was in one of her favourite movies. She would have absolutely lost it over your comments about the panties floating and not about to him sing like that and remain white!! Maaan, you are great! Thank you for making me think of her and making my smile even brighter while doing it!
Bobby Hatfield really shows his class with this song. Bobby owes this song. Thank you for this gift. R.I.P.
Every person I've seen do a reaction of them have assumed they were brothers because of their name. I heard that when they were first starting, they had gotten a job to play at a small out of the way club. It was a place frequented by only black people. So when they went out to sing, they were laughed at and ridiculed. And then they started singing. The laughter stopped and quite a few mouths dropped open in surprise. After they finished, they heard one of the men say, "man, those brothers are righteous." Hence, the name, Righteous Brothers. Tommy Hatfield's vocal range is amazing. I read an interview he did where he said he was very nervous because his mother was in the audience. All I could think was, that's how he sings when he's nervous!
Tommy Hatfield? Anyway, good story
@@Bareege Hi. Thank you for politely bringing that name mistake to my attention. Last week, I commented on the Elvis Presley song, In The Ghetto, I said Kris Kristofferson wrote it, even though I knew it was written by Mac Davis. Anyway, a couple of people were merciless. So thank you. I can only say, I have something similar to pregnancy brain. I have chemo brain. LOL. Stay safe and God bless!!
"Bro I don't even need you tonight. I don't even need you, I got this shit. I'm about to go out there and fuck them up! Watch it on T.V!"
I wish the conversation really did go like that.
After a two year stint in Vietnam,my husband was sent to Las Vegas. He used to sit in clubs and listen to the Righteous Brothers…show after show. As long as they kept buying drinks they could be there all night…and they did! He LOVED these guys!
Voice of an angel! 💜
My man... you're reactions are priceless..everything from the heart.
Thanks for keeping it real😎😁😎
Bill and Bobby always did one solo on each of there albums and while on tour. They both wanted to do Unchained, so they flipped a coin. The music was written as the 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. The movie “Unchained” is about a man in prison and longing for his wife and children. Hoping his wife will still be there when he gets out. So you can now understand the meaning of the song. The movie was not very good, or so my friends told me. But we were all teenagers so what did we now. Several artists sang it and it made the billboard top 100. But no one can come close to Bobby Hatfield’s version. Bobby’s version hit the top ten chart. And did it again when it was used in the movie “Ghost” It has since become a standard and one of the most recorded songs of the 20th century, most notably by Bobby. 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.
Bobby was the greatest singer of all time. I was fortunate to have the opportunity see him sing this on the Andy Williams show when I was 15 years old. I fell in love with him and I will never forget his beautiful voice! RIP Bobby! ❤❤❤
LOVED this reaction!
I'm so glad you discovered another jewel in the whole "blue-eyed soul" library. Your reaction was priceless. There's a lot more where that came from. Artists like Michael McDonald, Bobby Caldwell("What You Won't Do For Love"), Hall and Oates, and even Ambrosia are some of the stops you need to experience on that rabbit hole. Given these crazy times, I can only offer you love, peace and further investigation on this journey. I think you''ll love it. This is coming from an old white man. Not that race matters, but lots of love from my family to yours.
Thank you for including Bobby Caldwell's great voice.
Steve Winwood in the Spencer Davis Group.
And this was live. No auto tune. Live performance. Back in the days when you had it or you did not. Bobby had it.
#1 Love song for Decades all over the world
I love this song! It does bring back beautiful memories of dancing with my Grandpa Fred. He had given me love for earlier music generations as young child in early 1970s.
You had me rollin' man!
Also, wanted to point out that Bobby Hatfield is the reason the term "Blue Eyed Soul" exists. In '64 a Philadelphia DJ coined the term to refer to Bobby Hatfield, blonde and blue-eyed, singing soulful.
That’s alright!! 🙌🏼🔥🔥❤️
Bobby got all the girls
My son is autistic and I have to play this song every night or he can’t fall asleep
I think its more crazy that the rest of us can fall asleep WITHOUT this song every night! How do we do it?!? Your son makes sense
You are a good mom.
❤️
Wow! The wonders of music! God bless
...
Go mama.
Brave woman.
One of the best live vocals of all time. No modern auto tune, and stuff like that.
Bloody beautiful. ...no effort man.Always brings me to tears.
Bill Medley was in the audience, as was Bobby Hatfield's mother, that was why he smiled so big when he was done singing, he knew that he nailed it! Great reaction again today! You are the best reactor I've found!
If I’m not mistaken, Bobby was sick, like feverish and all. He went thru with the performance because his mom was there.
@@nancyanne1402 Hey Nancy, I hadn't heard that part, so thank you for filling me in, I can add that point next time. Nice reply!
Yep, he had a cold. Can you imagine what he would have sounded if he hadn't been I'll?!!
Keep in mind this was live TV on the Andy Williams show in 1965. No Voice makeovers or machines.
Thanks for giving a date context, that's interesting... I was 3, depending on what time of year, I turned 4 in October:). I wonder if my mother watched this with my brother and I not even knowing what we were missing!
You are my favorite I am 59 and an entertainer 40 yrs. Thank you for your priceless reactions. You got me crying.
Again...GOLD!!!!!!
You are one of a kind reactor, love that song sung by him alone which no other artist can duplicate, you were great also lol thanks keep it up brother.
Hey bro you are awesome man . I’ve been listening to that song since it first came out back in the 60s and yesterday I played it for my 12-year-old daughter and she didn’t even watch the whole thing they were tears rolling down her eyes , she said daddy this is too strong it is a beautiful that’s what she said and she sings my daughter 12 years old and watch out for her name later on her name is Leah she could sing but she had tears in her eyes she couldn’t even listen to the rest of this song so there is something about the song that’s so emotional he does the same thing to me . was one of my favorite song from the beginning of time that I had it back in the 60s when I was hanging out in Brooklyn we are all my boys this is it this is this song for old times .
Two very different voices. Outstanding individually. Together, harmonizing off the charts.
One of the hardest songs ever to sing.
I had never seen what the Righteous Brothers looked like until now but I had heard their voices. I always legitimately thought they were a classic 50's African-American band because their voices had that very essence of bands with African-American leads and members. Bands with that gorgeous smoothness of soul, harmony, and melody they are SO known and loved for. Bands like the Five Satins, Ben E. King, and many many more! Goes to show that you can learn something new everyday!
It was called blue eyed soul.... just incredible isn't it?
Still makes the hair on my neck stand up when I hear this song! Thank you. Love your channel!
Ewwww Stacey u have hair on your neck???? 😂😊
Your enthusiasm and love for music is contagious.... Thank you
No help singing, just pure talent !
