    Ok guys, you're right and you're not . Unchanged Melody was from the prison movie, Unchained, and it was just a little song. 2 people covered the song after the movie. Then Al Hibbler covered it and did the best job. Then Bobby Hatfield ( this guy here in the pink jacket) of The Righteous Brothers, sang it and turned it into a big hit. This version Bobby is singing was on The Andy Williams Show in 1965. This is not Bobby's recorded version that's used in the movie Ghost.
    Bobby wanted to do the song one more time for the recorded version ( he wasn't satisfied with it and wanted to give it another go but the studio said no, they wanted to go with what they had). Bobby is a counter tenor and had a 4 octave range. He took this time, on The Andy Williams Show, to showcase his range. This show was very popular and had millions of viewers.
    Fun facts; Bobby had stage fright, was very nervous, had a cold, was only 24 yrs. old, and his mom was in the audience.. If you had watched the entire video you would have seen Andy introduce them and then some pre song banter. After the song is sung, the other Righteous Brother (Bill Medley) comes back on stage with Andy and they all do a song together.
    Unchained Melody is the most covered song ever, ( over 650+ timrs) and its Bobby's version that is covered.
    Check out their other songs: You've Lost That Loving Feeling, Soul and Inspiration, You'll Never Walk Alone, Rock and Roll Heaven, I Just Want to Make Love to You ( Bill Medley. no video). Summertime (Bobby Hatfield). There are videos for all their other songs.
    Bobby Hatfield died in 2003. They were inducted into the R&R Hall of Fame in 2002
    Bill Medley ( in his 80's) is still performing

    The Righteous Brothers version was in the movie Ghost. It went to number 4 on the charts in 1965 and it was the B side. The djs flipped it over and played this song instead of the A side. The Brothers are Bobby Hatfield (here) and Bill Medley
    The each would do a solo on their lps. This was Bobby's. They got there name from some black marines who after they heard them perform said "That was Righteous Brothers"
    You need to listen to You've Lost that Lovin Feelin' by both brothers.

    This is the one. Bobby's studio version was used in Ghost, putting it back on the charts. His is the best. The Righteous Brothers were the best.

    This song was originally written for a movie and was sung by Todd Duncan, who was black. The RB sang the most famous cover, which was the version in the movie Ghost.
