Actually, the video is of a live performance on a TV show, but the audio is the actual studio version. There IS a copy of this same performance on TH-cam using the original TV audio, but it is very poor quality. The person that posted this version overdubbed the studio version to show how the audio was SUPPOSED to sound.
Whew. Thanks for that. I've watched like 30 people reacting to this song, and I've checked every comment section to see if they were using Auto-Tune back then. Thanks for _finally_ settling that debate for me.
Auto-Tune is an audio processor software created by Antares Audio Technologies. It was not available until 1997 over 30 years after this live performance.
You have just heard the greatest duo of all time. Not only do they have amazing voices, you are right, Bobby, the Tenor, and Bill. the Baritone, always put all their heart, soul and emotion into their performances. They felt the music in their very souls. Bobby is gone from us, we miss him so. Bill is 80 years old, and still singing.
Bobby could and did on Summertime. he was unique and we miss him. Thank God he and they left us recordings - some live. have you heard Roberta Flack si ng "The first time ever I saw your face?" Beautiful. and Jackie Wilson or Percy Sledge (ans. to my prayer"
I never get tired of this amazing performance which I saw when it first aired over 50 years ago. And it was a joy to see your sweet reaction to this all time favorite.
@@wormhole331 No, I was very proud of her. I was already married to my wife at that point and have been now for fifty one years. She was married to another guy at the time. Our young lives just took us in different directions. We still communicate regularly, though. Fifty five years of beautiful friendship and love.
Soul with a Capital "S:" Produced by Phil Spector and his wall of sound. This is why they are ALL in the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame, ( Bill, Bobby & Phil)
Beautiful music and two beautiful young people appreciating it !!! It doesn't get any better than this. All of us (high school and college friends) were gaga over these two. And no wonder!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Their music catalog is amazing. Not only for their professional perfection but for their diversity. Bobby Hatfield (the tenor) sings UNCHAINED MELODY and EBB TIDE solo and Bill MEDLY (baritone)sings the theme for the movie DIRTY DANCING, HAVING THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE. They delve into southern Mississippi Delta Blues with I JUST WANT TO MAKE LOVE TO YOU. SOUL AND INSPIRATION is their next biggest hit. This song is the most played song on American radio and television in the 20th century with over 8,000,000 plays. This is before Applplay or youtube existed. They are in THE ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME.
A reviewer once called him the bucket-voiced Bill Medley. That always struck me as an apt description of the depth of his baritone vocalizations. Paired with the brilliant tenor and falsetto range of Bobby Hatfield, this may have been the most dynamic singing duo ever.
They brought such LIGHT and LOVE and JOY to the world with their voices! So, YES, I also feel they were especially blessed, ANGELS on earth to light up our hearts!!
Recorded in 1965, imagine, NO autotune , one track for vocals , one for instruments. It shows how much that talent means. I love you reactions keep it up! James from Chicago
You forgot Unchained Melody, Ebb Tide and I Just Wanna Make Love To You, just a beginning to lead you down the Righteous Brothers rabbit hole but, believe me, it is a rabbit hole you will never want to escape from.
These guys were awesome! I'm 73 yrs old and love their songs. I play their CD'S in my car when I am traveling. People I grew up are gone such as ex husband and kids from high school. I cry when I remember them. So sad for me.
“The Righteous Brothers” are considered by most to be the Greatest Male Vocal Duet Of All Time. I agree. Between Bill Medley’s Lows and Bobby Hatfield’s Highs they can hit every note on an 88 key piano. No other male singers can do that. Legendary. “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin” was the most played song on radio in the 20th Century. "Unchained Melody" - Bobby Hatfield Live 1965. Considered by most as The Greatest Live Male Vocal Performance In History... I agree. Bobby's use of "Runs" is brilliant. He is the master of the technique and started the trend. 7 notes just to say the word "I".... Their name came when they did a show in a smaller venue and a black man told them…. You two Brothers are Righteous. They created the sound and set the table that all Soul Music fed from for decades to come. In 1983, in Newport Beach O.C. Calif. Bill and Bobby at the Jolly Roger Restaurant . I was 13 feet away for... "Unchained Melody"- "You've Lost That Lovin’ Feelin‘" - "Soul And Inspiration".... They were perfect, awesome, amazing, incredible......
From the 60's, Phil Spector at work with his "Wall of Sound". You'd have to look him up to see how many groups he worked with and how many top hit records he produced. in 2009 he was convicted of a 2003 murder, and died in prison last year.
Might want to try the duet between Sarah Brightman and Andria Bocelli ....." Time to say goodbye . " a classic ......have loved your reactions to the Righteous Brothers ....this tune was out during my college years .... all the best ..
I use to watch my Mom and Dad dance to this song when I was growing up. I'd love to see, talk and watch them dance again. Dad passed in 2007 and Mom in 2014...
This was done live by them no do overs.Their voices shouldn't have blended together Bobby was a tenor and Bill was a baritone but they did and it was pure magic.
Actually their touring as of today. Tho sadly Bobby Hatfield (high voice) passed I believe in 2003. Was replaced by Bobby Heard, all due respect Bobby Hatfield can't be replaced tho he's very good. I gave you other great songs to react to yesterday, I know both of you will enjoy.
The Righteous Brothers sang and spoke in a clear and articulate manner unlike many young people today. I do not know what regional accent (if that is what it is) this reaction couple are speaking but it is at times hard to understand.
I absolutely love Elvis but I don't think his version comes close. However, Elvis singing If I Can Dream for the '68 special is one of the best live performances of all time.
see how non american black folk react to their voice and not skin color? It is all programmed into us to think a certain way. They were only shocked by their vocals which is what music is all about.
THIS was done live in 1964. No remix or do-overs just a straight-ahead performance. No special effects or autotune. Pure talent.

The most played song of the 20th century, on the radio. Recorded in 1965.
No greater opening line of any song ever! "You never close your eyes anymore when I kiss your lips 💋"
Beautiful reaction! I heard that between these two.. they could hit every note on a 88 key piano! Amazing talent! 💖
Bobby could and did on Summertime. he was unique and we miss him. Thank God he and they left us recordings - some live.

Thanks for reacting to them - they deserve all the recognition. They definitely had soul.

Closer to 60 years ago.
When my high school sweetheart was in Vegas at about 30 years old, Bill Medley called her up on stage and sung to her.
And that was the last time you saw her. At least she went to good hands. 😅

@@hudsonhollow I was just joking that The ladies will leave their husbands for Bill. 50 years is a true friend!
@@wormhole331 Old Bill lost out on that one. ;)
I loved them then and now I realise even more how talented and unique their harmonies are!
This was the most played song on radio and TV of the 20th century. That should be all you need to know about this classic

Live ...live....blue eyed soul!
This song received the most radio play of any recording in the 20th century. Great stuff!
Best music ever! So glad it was mine!
Nice reaction guys. That was Righteous 😁
Righteous Brothers are 2 absolute destroyers, amazing
Beautiful music and two beautiful young people appreciating it !!! It doesn't get any better than this. All of us (high school and college friends) were gaga over these two. And no wonder!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Great music hits your soul on a cellular level. Thank you for keeping our music alive.
You a gorgeous couple. Love from South Africa
The voices of Angels.

Soul and inspiration is another great one of theirs. Also Rock and Roll Heaven.

Lady, I have no idea what you just said, but it was probably pretty spot on.

'Stunning's a good description. It's back in my top ten favourite singles of all time.
Damn she is a VERY, VERY pretty girl.......A straight out knockout!!!!!
The brothers were righteous. Rip bobby.

Unchained by Bobbie first!!!

Sounds Caribbean.
Watch Elvis Presley do his version of this song live 😁
I absolutely love Elvis but I don't think his version comes close. However, Elvis singing If I Can Dream for the '68 special is one of the best live performances of all time.
Please play Hallelujah by Lucy Thomas

That's 1965
You think that’s good you should hear Maverick and Goode sing it
This is from 1965 not the 90s
I'm not hitting on you but you are gorgeous
Why didn’t two talented black singers get together after these two? That would have been awesome.
Wrong Era. 1967
