One man, one mic, one take, LIVE... 100% singing ability.

Performed live with NO auto-tune, no electronic enhancements - just pure talent.

Brings a tear to your eye , don't it? Bobby Hatfield on the Andy Williams show performed it better than when the record was cut. He was always awesome. HUGE talent.

Pure singing man ! They didn’t have anything back then to enhance their music. You either had it or you didn’t. Bobby Hatfield owns this man !

IMO, simply the single greatest live performance EVER!

Several singers have performed this song but Bobby masters it. In his prime, he was one of the great tenors of all time.

A masterclass in pitch, voice control and damned good genes!

I am 62 years old and I love music. That is the most beautiful love song I have ever heard.

This was what entertainment was about. Stand & deliver...no gimmicks, no backup, no audio tricks, pure talent & the nerve to deliver the performance...

Bobby Hatfield 1965 live ! Great to see some young people digging this classic performance. Love from Canada

One of the greatest vocal performances of all time

Best singer I ever heard.

I really loved your reaction. His version of this song is the BEST I have ever heard. You're right. He does not force anything, and there is NO Autotune. Just him and a very small mike.

His octave range was off the charts.

This is the late Bobby Hatfield. His partner Bill Medley still performs. He is in his 80s and is almost as good as he was back then. The song You've Lost That Loving Feeling is a perfect showcase of the duo. They were unique back then for their unique talent. They were a major musical force even during the British Invasion. Their talent was so overpowering.

The moment you realize your grandparents were way cooler than you.

Righteous Brothers sang ROCK AND ROLL HEAVEN. '74 I think was the year. A beautiful tribute to those singers we've lost. Bobby is singing with the angels now. We still love you R.I.P Baby!

All Bobby had to do was stand there, hold a mic, and sing. A whole nation of women fell in love. And I say again, Not bad for a 25-year-old kid, eh?

Pure raw talent! I was lucky to see him sing this beautiful song in 1965.i was 15 and never get tired listening to him. RIP BOBBY! ❤

Baby makin music for sure. Pure talent.

Been listening to music for 65 years,and I ain’t never heard a song done As beautiful as this....Bobby’s masterpiece

Great Reactions and Great Comments! Arguably, one of the best live performances of all time! Welcome to the 60's and "blue-eyed soul"!

This is Bobby Hatfield, one member of the two members of the Righteous Brothers, singing this. If you want to see both of them singing, check out their song "You've lost that loving feeling"

It doesn’t get any better than this! This is why we say we had the Best music in the ‘70’s. One Man, One Mic, No Auto-Tune, No Dubbing, No laying of Tracks, just God given talent, and, and, it’s done LIVE! Enjoy!.. SanJoséBob

I get tears every time I listen to this song.

Such a great and powerful voice from the past. Loved them then and love them now. Greatest duo ever to do it. He did this alone but you should listen to their other great songs. Thanks!

Great reaction!!! You let the music play out without the stopping and speaking that so many others do. There is nothing said during the music that can't be said later. I loved your reactions! I also love your name Peacesent! Peace sent! A most beautiful name!!!

He has such an Angelic Voice such a timeless song Loved your reaction, 😁 Bill Medley is the other half of the group, You've Lost That Loving Feeling was the most-played song of the 20th century, their music is just as beautiful now as was then, 😁

Beautiful. Both your assessments are so sweet, touching, delicate, you heard everything he wanted to convey. Wonderful reactions, so well said!

His voice is from the heavens. No one will ever do this song like him.(it's his song)His partner Bill Melody was the baritone voice Bobby was the tenor their voices shouldn't have blended together but they did and it was pure magic.This live performance was just Bobby's voice and a small microphone No do overs.You Have to listen to Your my soul and my heart Inspiration by the two of them.

I'm a grown man but this performance is so beautiful that I tear up every single time.

Thats called BLUE EYED SOUL !!!!

It's so soulful and spiritual. God Given Talent. Nobody has Bobby's range. NOBODY

I just have to say it....Bobbie was not showing off!!! All their songs were so great because neither one held back on any thing!!! That is why they are THE RIGHTOUS BROTHERS!!!!! I was in high school when they came on the scene...at lunch time the school played their records over the loud speakers...WOW!!! We loved them then and love them still!!!!! Thanks for playing them for us!!!!!💞💞💞

The greatest live performance in music history...period!! Peace to you both

Welcome aboard! Glad to see you youngsters enjoying good music from the past.

Excellent comments. I really dig young people in their 20s and 30s just now getting to know the joy of the Righteous Brothers.

Bobby's Mom was in the audience. Her first time hearing him performing live. He nailed it to the wall. He knew he did it at the end when he bites his lower lip. Watch what I mean at the very end. He was a class act. They both were.

I love watching young people discover Babby Hatfield and Unchained Melody, my all-time favorite song. Bobby is awesome but so is the backing music. Try to pay attention to the flowing strings next time you listen. Brilliant arrangement by Phil Spector.

“you said it yourself flowers from 1970 couldn't last that long.”

In case you were wondering ... the end was a "High C" ... few vocalist can hit it. His Mum was in the audience and first time to hear him perform live ... hence the lower lip bite at the end as he knew he nailed it. Nice reaction and appreciated from an "old guy".

Beautiful song, beautiful voice! Gracias!🇦🇷🎶❤️

She was feeling the music even after the song was over. I am glad that you both enjoyed it.

What an awesome performance. So glad I lived through that era.

One lovely n beautiful voice no one can sing that song like.him. as of yet

"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 73 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......

Peacesent Makeover, thank you for doing this!!!! It is wonderful to see people actually appreciate this. I have known this song a long time, but only RECENTLY saw this performance! It is without compare, just unique and so perfect and beautiful and the story behind his parents in the audience and him having a cold just give you more reason to love it

He bit his bottom at the end because he knew he had nailed it. He was so nervous because his parents were in the audience.

You're my soul and inspiration > The Righteous Brothers. If a love song was thunder this is what it would sound like. A must watch/listen

This song means so much to so many. The way Bobby Hatfield sings this song is classic. It will stand the test of time and will continue to bring joy to many in the future.

One of mumy favourite songs 😍. Thank you. You guys are awesome!! 😍

The Righteous Brothers are pure talent; this is live; they didn't need any gimmicks

Love the song & reaction thanks

Nice job, you two. I hunger for a return of this type of music (I was 24 when Jonny sang this, on the Andy Williams Show). So tired of autotune, grunge, dancers, hand movements, blah, blah. Jonny practiced stand and deliver and boy, did he! 🥰

I sang this to my wife at our wedding in 1983. She, however she said I murdered it. I'm guessing it's not a song for a baritone, she told me I was of better sticking to my drumming. I thought it was an appropriate song as I was in the Royal Marine Commandos, I had returned from the war for the Falkland Islands when I proposed, and now was shipping out to Sierra Leone two days later, so much for my attempt at being romantic. On the upside she liked me in my Dress Uniform, and having my comrades forming the sword tunnel helped. I must have done something right because we're still together. With 4 children and 7 grandchildren, we got busy on baby's when I was home. I served my Queen and Country for 34 years as a Royal Marine Commandos and British Special Forces, and then over 2 years in hospital, and she stuck by me even though I'm wheelchair bound now. We do actually have a song by Queen called "Your Me Best Friend", a very apt song as she has been my best friend since we were both 15.

I remember watching this on a live tv show when I was 17. Bobby was a natural.

Beautiful

Bobby Hatfield had a voice like an angel!

I could not agree with you more. A masterclass on how to sing a song...the great Bobby Hatfield.

Bobby had a cold that day. His mother and father was there .

This was a live tv appearance. He was shy and nervous and his parents were in the audience, seeing him perform for the first time. That little smile at the end said that he knew he had nailed it!

When love songs were really love songs.

Thank you for allowing the song to play without stopping too much.

Booby Hatfield sings 24 different notes effortlessly and the end is a G5 which is extremely hard for a male singer. Notice no strain at all throughout.

Beautiful young lady

TIMELESS EXCELLENCE - has a perfect, "Right NOW" feeling...this man's talent and singing has never been equalled!

Just a quick comment. For people that haven't heard that song before, it was a story (lyrics) about somebody incarcerated and wanting to get back to the love of his life. If you listen to it again, think of someone stuck in prison, alone, waiting their time, and missing their love. Listen to it with that in mind. Also remember that this was a live performance. No studio retakes here.

That was righteous!

And there was no auto tune or any other embellishments in 1965. it was pure voice

Great reaction-- love that you only paused it once. Subbed. Check out "(You're My) Soul & Inspiration by them, where both 'brothers' are singing-- this one, Bobby Hatfield R.I.P. with the high voice and the other, Bill Medley with a very deep voice. Like chocolate & peanut butter-- perfect together!

Probably his best performance. Bobby Hatfield is still one of the Greatest singers and OWNS this song. The Righteous Brothers are the definition of Blue Eyed Soul.

Gorgeous man he was too

Great reaction!

Wow what a voice man

HE WAS SICK.HIS PARENTS WERE IN AUDIENCE AND HE ABSOLUTELY KILLED IT!!!

Nice reaction.

This was made in 1965 to a live audience in one take. Bobby Hatfield sung this song knowing that his Mom and Dad were sitting in the front row. Did you notice his slight lower lip bite at the very end? I think that was his knowledge that he had nailed it for his Mom & Dad. The other half of the Righteous Brothers was off stage.

That man can sing!

GUYS , CAN YOU BELIEVE A PERFORMANCE LIKE THIS FROM BOBBY HATFIELD BACK IN 1965 - LIVE. THIS IS WHAT WE NOW CALL "X-FACTOR PLUS". TRULY A GOD GIVEN VOICE-AMEN

Excellent reaction by both you guys.....

His performance was done before auto tuners or any other electronic tricks existed. This is just his talent, his contra tenor vocal fange, and a simple mjcrophone. A flawless performance by a consummate professiona!l.

I'm always pleased to see my brown cousins digging this song! We call it, Blue-eyed soul:) One of the best recording ever made!! Peace to all.

Fill it fill it !!!

Great reaction to watch. Makes it fresh for me.

Long live Bobby Hatfield. Loved your reaction, subbed.

love it

the epitome of smooth. i love it

Blue eyed soul..

Damn that's what you call a good reaction and review! Cheers guys. Subbed.

Hi folks, I’m new to your channel and I love you both already , I heard that this singer Bobby had a slight cold that day and he was nervous because his parents were in the audience , and btw he is 25 here, I’m 60 and just now seeing really kool videos from yesteryear , I grew up a Motown girl 100% snd some rock , take care y’all , love from Maryland

Superb talent.

Bobby sings a solo on this song. AWESOME & SOULFUL.

(2:53) her look says it all ,(deep love). And yours, is it Envy? la mirada de ella, lo dice todo, (amor profundo). Y la tuya, ¿es Envidia?

Listen to this alone, and think, if it doesn't move you, you're dead.

just for your info, Bobby hit a high G6 note on the last note and held it...Bobby was one of a kind.. R.I.P. Bobby..

Bobby Hatfield at his BEST!

Blue eyed soul

Great reaction.

When Bobby Hatfield & Bill Medley san together people who heard the said " Thats Righteous Bro" thus their name

Bobby Hatfield. One of the best vocal ranges of all time. He does an incredible job on EbbTide also.
