This song has been recorded over 700 times, and no one has ever even come close to comparing to his performance and I don't think anyone can ever compare to Bobby Hatfield Thank you for your attention mam!!!!!!
I have to say. I am 83 years old and it makes me so happy to see you young people looking back to my youth and realizing that our music was great then and even better today. Thank you. My thoughts. If you wonder why boomers hate AUTO TUNE so much, this is why. We miss the days when singers could actually sing!
@@dougturngren5027 I remember this on the Andy Williams show. I was 7 at the time and blown away by his voice. To this day I've not heard his equal from another man. Some have come close, but that was all. I will hopefully remember his voice until the day it's my time to join him.
How does any woman listen to Bobby sing that song, or ANY song, and not fall in love with him? I sure did! I never forgot this show, I was 22 then. Sarah, I love your reaction. You have so much more to hear from Bobby and his amazing Baritone partner, Bill Medley. Have fun!! God broke Bobby's mold, there never was or never will be another like him.
What an awesome reaction. Thank you for your honesty in sharing with us. Bobby felt every word he sang so we would as well. He was a musical genius. Bobby passed away in 2003. Miss you Bobby. No one will ever compare to Bobby in my eyes and heart.
The song was actually written for a movie in 1955 titled 'Unchained' & is sung by a convict who is missing his sweetheart. Many artists have covered the song but it was Bobby Hatfield's -(of the Righteous Brothers) solo version in 1965 that raised the song to a masterpiece. Incidently, for you young'uns, 1965 may sound like a looooong time ago but for those of us who were there, it was yesterday.😁
It's been said he had up to 5 octaves he could sing, and in this melody he used upwards to 24 different notes..naturally..don't even see ANY facial strain to do those notes. SUPERIOR MASTERPIECE!! Love this song..and him. Sadly we lost him in 2003..R.I.P. Bobby.
Several "singers" have covered this song since then. But Bobby's live performance in 1965 is untouchable. Yes, 1965, before auto tune or any other computer gizmos to enhance voice/tone/pitch quality. This is just raw talent. Bobby's 3-octave range is amazing and so effortless. Bobby owns this! (RIP)
Thank you for playing the whole song, without talking over the whole thing, or pausing it. It's been a lot of years since I heard this song from my childhood. Thank you for sharing your experience. :)
Thanks for not interrupting the play. Your feelings come through wonderfully as you just enjoy. And, yeah, most people have the same reaction to this song and fabulous performance, live on the Andy Williams variety show. By 1965 color tv was pretty common in the U.S. The Righteous Brothers were one of the great duets of all time. Each performance would involve a solo from each, this one by the great bobby Hatfield.
This was a live performance on The Andy Williams Show for Valentines Day..I was 12 years old when I watched it on TV.. It made me cry then and still does because Bobby's enchanting and haunting voice just touches every emotion.. So glad you listened to it🥰
This song was written from the perspective of a man in prison wondering whether his lady would still be there for him when he got out. It's one of the most popular love songs ever written.
Listen to You’ve Lost that Lovin Feeling to hear Bill Medley sing. He is the other “brother” and has a very deep voice. Their harmonies are crazy good! Other GREAT songs by them are Soul and Inspiration, and Ebb Tide
What a lovely reaction to this incomparable performance by Bobby Hatfield that transports us to another place. His emotion and soul flowing through his magical vocals. You might enjoy Bobby singing solo Summertime or even A Change Is Gonna Come. There is a Righteous Brothers duet from the Ed Sullivan Show: You'll Never Walk Alone, with their glorious harmonies. 🕊🎶❤ #BobbyHatfield #RighteousBrothers
Maybe it's transcendence. The music touches your soul and reminds you of a pat existance. I've know this song my whole life and it still makes me cry. His voice is just that, transcendant. I love watching people discover all the beautiful music that I love ❤
Thanks for the wonderful respect you showed in this tribute to this angelic performance. You’re right - it really does take you somewhere special. You speak like a very psychic person. Thank you for your review Try their other huge hit - “you’ve lost that loving feeling” you’ll never be the same aftet
Best version hands down of this classic song. Absolutely loved the Righteous Brothers. Their style of music was referred to as blue-eyed soul. Sadly we lost Bobby Hatfield almost 20 years ago now. He had such a beautiful one of a kind voice. Home Free just did a very beautiful version of this song. You may want to check it out.
Bobby Hatfield, singing on the Andy Williams Show on tv. His singing partner, Bill Medley, was on stage with him and Andy before Bobby sang the song. When you listen to "You've Lost That Loving Feeling", that you've added, you'll hear their harmonies produce a sound that no one else can match. Enjoy!
You couldn't tell, but Bobby was very nervous as his mother was in the audience that night and this was a live performance. He knew that he nailed it as evidenced by the lip bite at the end. The notes he hit in the end couldn't be reached by most male singers. Many, many babies were born 9 months after this performance. This is what we called, "Baby making music."
DortheyC is correct .This was made for a movie about someone in prison. THIS Performance was live no do overs.He was sheer perfection. No one will ever do this like he did.He owns this song.
@@nancydanise5073 You should check out the video of Home Free singing this. They stayed true to the original prison theme of the song. It's absolutely awesome.:)
What a beautiful soul you have! So glad to be a new subscriber! Please do more Pentatonix (PTX). You might like the upbeat, colorful “Come Along”. Their “Sound of Silence” and more lately “Amazing Grace” will transport you to another world. My daughter, Laura, died in 2019, just 1 month after my mother died. And in the next 2 years we would lose 4 more female family members. It was crushing. In the third year after Laura’s death, I used music to help me. I did a song a day and wanted to learn all different kinds, like you are doing here. Much love from Laura’s mom. 💕🐝💕
I love this song. I was 15 years old when I watched him sing this beautiful song on the Andy Williams show in 1965. I still get goosebumps when I hear him sing this beautiful song. RIP Bobby. We miss your beautful voice! ❤❤❤
Great comments and reaction Sarah - sounded like a bit of the old "personally recognise something you've never seen".....magic song and amazing performance for so many, you're in good company :)
Bobby Hatfield of the Righteous Bros did this solo.Live on the Andy Williams show the other 1/2 of the duo Bill Medley was there and they sang together later in the show with Andy Williams. Song was called WHAT'D I SAY.You'll will see their personalities along with Andy singing with them it will make you smile.
the song to me was innocents in control from a GOD of Love, peace and unending joy, a place in the Future when ALL wickedness is GONE Forever. Soon! Mathew 6:9-15 & Revelation 21: 3, 4.
I think he took you to love of Jesus a world beyond but so near a sincere and beautiful world of simplicity and purity god bless you sister from Australia
You mentioned that it sounded like a black man. The soul music genre is normally associated with black performers, but the Righteous Brothers' music was referred to as "Blue-Eyed Soul."
I love your honest and amazing responses to the songs you play. I have listened to several today and I see you really like The Bee Gees and so do I but more important you love music. I am much older than you and was so lucky to be young to hear these songs for the first time. I am so blessed to be the generations with the best music and I love to see your reaction to it.
Your reaction was beautiful. This song and Bobby's rendering takes many us "elsewhere". You are not alone. 😊 This song was written for a 1950's movie called "Unchained. It's about a prisoner longing for his lady and worried that she wouldn't wait for him. I think Bobby sang this around 1965, during the Vietnam War. A lot of soldiers thinking of their partners. The song really hit home. Thank you so much for your lovely reaction and I look forward to seeing many more! ( Bill Medley sings with Bobby on "You've Lost That Loving Feeling" One of their best!) 😊😊
You might in fact have heard this song before in THIS life, because it is very popular. It's probably best known as the theme song to the hit movie "Ghost," which is a terrific film that you would probably also love
This song has been recorded over 700 times, and no one has ever even come close to comparing to his performance and I don't think anyone can ever compare to Bobby Hatfield Thank you for your attention mam!!!!!!

If you wonder why boomers hate AUTO TUNE so much, this is why. We miss the days when singers could actually sing!
One of the finest vocal performances ever recorded.... period.
Bobby Hatfield was a gift from God, a once in a lifetime talent, he sang it live in 1965 no auto tune, no remix, no redo, he was a special talent
Song has gotten alot lf panties wet!
@@dougturngren5027 I remember this on the Andy Williams show. I was 7 at the time and blown away by his voice. To this day I've not heard his equal from another man. Some have come close, but that was all. I will hopefully remember his voice until the day it's my time to join him.
@EdKohl-z4c Amen my friend
Unchained Melody = When PERFECTION touches your SOUL
I think everyone should experience a love like this song. At least once in a life time.
I guarantee if you listen to it 50 years from now you will have the same reaction. It's timeless.
I just did! 🙂
Bobby's voice was all natural God given talent
Perfect. Masterful. Unsurpassed. Timeless. A.song.that will last forever.even in heaven.
“Deja vu of a life you’ve never lived” brilliant… It so perfectly explains that feeling we all probably have had at times but can’t describe.
I missed it, until I read your post, well spotted, totally agree with you " Brilliant"
That is why they called The righteous Brothers blue-eyed soul!!
It ain't about color. It's about a beautiful song sung perfectly. It touches the soul.
FLAWLESS. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
what a beautiful young lady, thank you for helping to keep bobbies spirits alive
That was the perfect reaction. Love you girl until next time stay well
It's not just you 😢, remembering a life we never lived. So beautiful ❤️.
One of the most beautiful songs ever

Oh man, goosebumps all over and I was then back there............................yesterday.
Yup... I listen to this and I'm a Junior in High School again.
The greatest performance ever .
The first time I ever heard this it made me cry. I listened to it over and over. Amazing.
The best version . RIP Bobby Hatfield .
Love the reaction to a one of a kind performance by the great Bobby Hatfield!
If this doesn't float a woman's boat, nothing will

live ,one take , no autotune just pure talent. oh and his mother was in the audience.
Thank you for playing the whole song, without talking over the whole thing, or pausing it. It's been a lot of years since I heard this song from my childhood. Thank you for sharing your experience. :)
Dear Sarah, I enjoyed your reaction and commentary. You words about deja vu make sense to me. I think you are on to something real.

❤I MEANT BEAUTIFUL
@@mattiehart8960makes sense now lol, I was wondering who Benny was and what special place he held in you heart...
Great performance, year I was born.
Bobby Hatfield: a voice sent from heaven, for all of us to hear.
This was a live performance on The Andy Williams Show for Valentines Day..I was 12 years old when I watched it on TV.. It made me cry then and still does because Bobby's enchanting and haunting voice just touches every emotion.. So glad you listened to it🥰
He actually had a cold when he sang that song on the show ! Incredible
This song was written from the perspective of a man in prison wondering whether his lady would still be there for him when he got out. It's one of the most popular love songs ever written.
Its simply stunning
This is a far cry from the original done by Al Hibbler 50s.All due respect to Al. This may be the best performance in music history!!!!
And romantic….
Bet she was gone
The takes you to a place in life you never have experienced
One of the greatest live vocal performances ever.
Loved your commentary ❤️
Sends chills down your spine, doesn’t it! Blue-eyed soul.
Absolutely!
Music touches me as well !!!!
Amazing isn't it?!

Loved your reaction, Sarah! A real classic song performed live on the “Andy Williams” television show in the 60’s. ❤️❤️
I love it! ❤️
This was performed on "The Andy Williams Show?!!!" Thank you
Je pense pouvoir dire que c'est la voix masculine la plus extraordinaire du 20e siècle que je n'ai jamais entendue, respect !
Beautiful song and great singer...
nice reaction elvis presley also does a great rendition of this song just before his passing keep up the great work
Yes, I understand that deja vu feeling for lives I haven't lived. Lovely reaction video.
This song and, specifically this performance is thought to be the most romantic performance of the 20th century by many people.
It's such a shame that Bobby never got to see all of these wonderful reaction videos.
wow, nice thought.

I love your reactions.
Great comments and reaction Sarah - sounded like a bit of the old "personally recognise something you've never seen".....magic song and amazing performance for so many, you're in good company :)
Love your reaction.
This is one of the top live performances in music history.
Peace......
Some folks can sing! Others SANG! The righteous brothers where two of the best.
Great reaction...glad you took my recommendation to do this song....this guy voice is pure SILK! No autotune...just a flatout crooner! Great song!
Thank you so much for the recommendation 😊
@@SarahDengler love your channel....informed, intellectual reactions....subscribed!
This song is the ladies kryptonite. Wonderful reaction.🌹

The girls look shy, they blush, and then he takes them all the way!
If I was a female this rendition by Bobby could melt my knickers off.
Top shelf.
the song to me was innocents in control from a GOD of Love, peace and unending joy, a place in the Future when ALL wickedness is GONE Forever. Soon! Mathew 6:9-15 & Revelation 21: 3, 4.
Pm his grave for 20 years and still melting women's hearts...
So many covers of this song and none will ever beat this version
Wow... I love your initial reaction to his incredible voice...........................
I think he took you to love of Jesus a world beyond but so near a sincere and beautiful world of simplicity and purity god bless you sister from Australia
Like a dream world fantasy..
I grew up listening to these guys.Was fun when girls were listening to this.
You mentioned that it sounded like a black man. The soul music genre is normally associated with black performers, but the Righteous Brothers' music was referred to as "Blue-Eyed Soul."
How fitting!
Its the same disconnect of when there is a black opera singer
