This was a live appearance on the Andy Williams Show. No tricks, no redos, no second chances, no autotune, no nothing, but his talent. This is one of the all time best live performances ever. Also, I believe Bobby Hatfield's mother was in the audience and smiled at the end because he absolutely nailed it in front of her. True greatness.

This is, almost totally unarguably, the finest live vocal performance ever. Bobby's total control over his voice is astonishing and he utilises nearly every note in 4 octave range. I don't believe there's a singer alive who can do this without studio fakery. Even more so, this live version is even superior to the studio recording of this amazing song. Seeing him bite his lip at the end, he knows he's nailed this, with his mum in the audience who hadn't seen him perform live since Bobby and his singing partner Bill Medley began enjoying hit records. As for further exploration into the 1960s, absolutely yes. No decade has been more diverse, accepting, nor more creative than the 60s. It's a deep well of some of the greatest music ever done.

One of, yes, for the time, certainly, but have you heard Dimash*, Angelina Jordan or Diana Ankudinova, or any of the other 'modern' outstanding singers. Morgan James and Haley Reinhart have some outstanding performances on Postmodern Jukebox - "Dream On", "Creep" and "Seven Nation Army" being a selection. There are astounding singers, and performers, from different countries, and in different genres, that we will never hear of, to our loss. *For example, kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jZ92n6d-qNWcfIk.html - for Dimash. His recorded range is just shy of 7 octaves, and he hints that there's more.

This song has been sung by hundreds of people but none sings it better than Bobby Hatfield. The studio version featured in the film 'Ghost' was great but this live version is stupendous. He had a cold, his mother was in the audience listening to him sing professionally for the first time and he suffered with stage fright. At the end when he hits the high note he does not contrort his face like other singers do when hitting a high note. He just bites his lip and smiles as if to say 'I nailed it'.

It's really bittersweet that Bobby chose his music over the professional baseball career he could have had. Had he chosen baseball, he might still be with us, but then we would not have his hauntingly beautiful music to listen to. Bobby truly did have the voice of an angel, mesmerizing, addictive, and just a pure joy to listen to. I could not chose a favorite from all his solos as they are all amazing. He will always be my favorite male singer and the owner of this song. There really never will be another Bobby! If you want to hear more of Bobby, listen to I Love You (For Sentimental Reasons) or Only You, or Stay With Me, or My Prayer, or Crying in the Chapel, or For Your Love, or Ebb Tide...just to name a few!

I'll always have a place in my heart for the Righteous Brothers. I used their song "Soul and Inspiration" to break out of the friend zone with my sister's best friend. It was the early 80's, and with the help of some friends, I got her to the middle of the roller skating rink. From there I sang "Soul and Inspiration" to her, it way the scariest but one of the best times of my life. Sadly, she passed in 2014 from cancer, but with very few regrets. We knew love that is extremely rare these days.

Slow dance. You said it! Why did you look like he was singing directly to you? 😉 This song is so enchanting and passionate. Knowing the context makes it even more poignant. The context is about a prisoner who misses his wife's touch and love and is in great anxiety over whether time, which can do so much, has eroded her love for him (Are you still mine? I'll be coming home, wait for me, wait for me). The song is from a 1950s movie, Unchained, about this man (he sings it in the movie).

Its to bad the video which is excellent pans back right at the epic moment Bobby hits that incredible crescendo at the high point in the song! Sometimes I hear people who are reacting to the song wonder how they could stay still and be silent during such an incredible performance. I think because they were recording this performance the audience was instructed to remain quiet. I wish I could teleport back in time and be able to sit there in the front row and be blown away by the most epic vocal performer’s performing one of the greatest love songs ever. To put the song into context it was written for a prison movie in 1958. That would explain the lyrics of the song. Timeless I only wish Bobby Hatfield was still with us so he could see how people of this generation love and appreciate his incredible talent and the beautiful music he and Bill Medley gave us!

In Dreams is one of his best too. It was my dads favourite song by Roy Orbison, it was such a poignant and fitting moment when it was played at his funeral, and he finally got to be with my mum again. 😢😊

I was born in 82’ in Iowa in the states and I remember on the radio they had an oldies station and we listened to it going to my grandmas house about a 5 min drive away and it was thee most nostalgic, beautiful, harmonious music EVER! It was music from the 40s, 50s, and maybe 60s and I absolutely loved it soo soo much. It was taken off the air probably 86’-87’ and that was a sad day for me and I never got to express how much that music made me feel. It was like this music. So beautiful and a time capsule for how good music used to be. It was sooo entertaining and man did you just love it. It had a feel all to its own. I’ll never forget it.

So glad I saw this live performance as on the C.D. the ending isn't so far out. Apparently his mum was in the audience for the first to see him and he wanted to bring out all the stops for her. ❤❤❤

Truly one of the most beautiful and soulful (well it is blue eyed soul music) songs ever written. Yes I first heard this in the movie Ghost. Makes you want to go back to the 50s, slow dance. A heartfelt reaction. ♥️ it

It's great to see the effect Bobby Hatfield still has on girls, sixty years later. They all melt and the song makes them so happy.

suggestions... this song was ever so popular back in the 60's I was a little kid, but this song was constantly been playing on the radio and with my 2 older sisters. They never tire from listening to it. Back then, I got so irritated with them but now I'm older I certainly appreciate this timeless performance. Anther beautiful cover performed by LeAnn Rimes. How she hits those high notes, is beyond me! Great reaction Ms Aileen
