The Righteous Brothers are "Blue Eyed Soul" so well deserved, ur hearing pure talent, you don't hear music like this tdy

They are the best of blue eyed soul! It shows music has no color when it's great it's great 👍

It holds the record for the most plays on the radio ever..by a wide margin

"It had to be a really big song" the word you're looking for is "Iconic".

Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield together were unbelievable!!! Bill with the bass and Bobby being a Tenor...made the most beautiful music!!!

I love watching these songs. I remember watching my Mom and Dad dancing to this song and they even use to dance in the grocery stores when this song would come on in the stores. People use to watch thrm dance til it was done. I miss them so much. Dad passed in 2007 and Mom in 2014...

Two amazingly talented singers coming together to create an unforgettable harmony!!!

Perhaps you’ve heard it before because it’s been ranked as the number one most played song on American radio and television in the 20th century and is still going strong to this day. 😉

THIS IS the most played song on radio and television in the twentieth century with over 8,000,000 (eight million) plays. there was no youtube!! This song was recorded LIVE not in a studio. NO ELECTRONIC ENHANCEMENTS!!!. The next song should be YOU ARE MY SOUL AND INSPIRATION. It was done live on television. They just stood there and saangg!!!

Their Voices are amazing. This song has been in so many movies.. Top Gun made it huge again.

Damn, this song is wonderful. Those vocals are beautiful.

The range between Bill’s low notes and Bobby’s high notes is unbelievable.

Bill Medley sings (I've Had) The Time Of My Life in Dirty Dancing

"Peanut butter n Jelly" is the PERFECT analogy for these brothers 😉

Facts on the voice! They are so good in their own style.

Starts out soft and ends up in a wall of sound. Strings doing their manipulative thing. Celeste talking to the guitar in the pauses. Superb vocals. It's fun to relive this music from my youth through your eyes and ears.

Pb and J was actually a PERFECT analogy

Nah lil bro, perfect analogy!! The were in a group called “The Paramours” before this and decided they meshed well, and formed “The Righteous Brothers” after a young black Marine stood up after one of their earliest performances and shouted “that was RIGHTEOUS... brothers!” Bill is still living, Bobby was lost to us in 2003, however I have talked to one of his sons and his daughter and they REALLY enjoy seeing reactors like yourself enjoying their Dad’s music! As do I!

This was the most played song of the 20th Century. Oh, and each of the duo did solo songs depending on what vocal sound they were after. Btw, one of the background singers is Cher.

The duet is the "Righteous Brothers" however Unchained Melody was just sung by Bobby Hatfield [tenor]. With the 4 octave range. Bill Medley is the baritone. This song was produced by famous Phil Spector and his *unique* and *creative* "Wall of Sound" . Spector called his crew of producers "The Wrecking Crew" It is also the *most* played song of the 20th century. I believe Spector produced nearly all of the songs for their album.

Trust your ear...the analogy peanut butter and jelly is perfect!!

As great as they were, this was a time when there was so much great music, so many groups and single performers. Motown was turning out one great singer after another and one hit after another, it was the golden era of music.

Glad you're broadening your musical experience and horizons. Thanks for your reaction video and trust me.. girls like a man that knows his music. Old or new... you got it and I hope you keep doing whatever makes sense and brings 💯 percent musical joyness to you. Go ahead young buck... you good.

Great pick!!I like that you can appreciate such a wide diversity of music , otherwise you miss out on so much! Well done!👍❤🌹🌹

I know you are young..not the soul genre but soul to you. A classic. Love this one. Thanks.

Actually, your peanut butter and jelly analogy was perfect! They weren't really brothers, just singing partners. Bill Medley (deeper voice) and Bobby Hatfield. They were performing in a nightclub in California that was near a military base. Several black guys from the base heard them sing and one of them yelled at them "You are righteous, brothers", and the name stuck! Their style of music became known as "Blue-Eyed Soul", and this particular song became the most played song on TV and radio during the 20th Century. I got to see them live several times when I lived in Las Vegas in the late 1990s, and they STILL were fantastic performers 30 years after these songs were hits. RIP, Bobby.

This one, Bill Medley, sings bass. The other, Bobby Hatfield, sings tenor.

PB & J may be the best analogy I have ever heard.

The lower voice was the lead in "I've Had The Time Of My Life," from "Dirty Dancing".

Hatfield's voice was so ahead of his time.

This is the perfect song

It was the number one played song on the radio in the 20th century

PB&J is a very insightful metaphor!

This is soul.

They were an amazing duo, but Bobby Hatfield was always my favorite, his singing makes me want to cry it's so beautiful! Too bad Bill Medley wanted to go solo for a while, they would have been unstoppable together!

The movie Top Gun introduced me to the Righteous Brothers, timeless classic, F-14s after burning and this tune playing, 👌🏼

The best song and group of all time

They weren't related. They received their name when playing at a military base and some African-American Marines heard them and shouted out "man, you sound righteous, brother!" Often, the word "brother" is used, frequently by African Americans, not strictly in regards to a family member but to friends/comrades who share an ideal. Medley and Hatfield liked it so they took on the name Righteous Brothers. If you liked this song, you would also like Soul and Inspiration which was written as a follow-up to the success of this song. It also features both "brothers" and peaked for three straight weeks at #1 in the US. Here is the link to react to: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p9anpLaCsMzRXXk.html

The man singing lead with the low deep voice is Bill Medley, and you may have heard him sing the song Time of My Life with Jennifer Warnes in the movie Dirty Dancing. The guy singing soprano is Bobby Hatfield

Peanut butter and jelly is not a dumb analogy, I think its spot on. Both different, but the mix is like no other, every once in awhile the stars line up and everything comes together. When this happens all you can say is, " and that is as it should be", you don't add to it, you don't take anything away from it... p&j, it just is....

Righteous Bros ..Some of the Greatest songs..two great singers ..a lotta musical magic. It’s on my playlist for a long, long time😉 thank God! Amazing music and voices..you would enjoy Roy Orbison, Pretty Woman, Only the Lonely and Conway Twitty , It’s Only Make Believe...I can tell you’re Loving what you do and doing what you love, a great recipe for life. You’re doing great..Oh don’t forget Queen, Bohemian Rhapsody!!

The peanut butter and jelly analogy is great. Maybe react to (You're My) Soul and Inspiration by the Righteous Brothers.

Peanut butter and jelly.😂 They were called “Blue-eyed Soul” back in the day. And they weren’t really brothers. Try something by Roy Orbison who was big in those days. Pretty Woman is one of his most famous songs.

I know ur too young but when i here this song it always reminds me of the movie top gun lol

Love your reactions and commentary. I'm very envious of all the music you have yet to discover.

This is the most played song of the twentieth century. It's hard to believe but it has had more air time than ANY other record played in the 19 hundreds.

Definitely, listen to YOU ARE MY SOUL AND INSPIRATION!

Peanut butter and jelly…that’s a grape analogy!

Bill Medley also sang the main song from Dirty Dancing "Time of My Life". That boy could sing!! And Cher sang in the choir in the back of this video

Some guy in the crowd at the end of a performance yelled out "you guys are rightoues brothers" and that's how they got the group name. They are not brothers in real life. This song was the most played in the 20th century.

They are not hiological brothers, just friends. They were magic together.

Ur pb&j analogy is right on. They blend together perfectly.

They’re not related .... my sons says the swag drips off them 🤣

Peanut butter and jelly is a fantastic analogy.

These guys weren't bothers, they were both initially part of 2 different musical groups/bands before meeting, and eventually, they began singing as a duo. Being a Baritone and a Tenor, they compliment each other very well, and back then there was no such thing as autotune. You had to be able to sing or you did not get very far in the business.

Probably heard it in Dirty Dancing at the end, him and Jennifer Warner for the last dance. different song same voice.

We all heard this song at the end of Top Gun. Thats why everyone rememners this song and in a good way!

Orba Humphrey more or less said it all.Their are two brothers.Bobby Hatfield was the tenor voice and Bill Melody was the baritone voice they shouldn't have blended together but they did and it was pure magic and soul.The movie I believe your referring to is Dirty Dancing. THE song he sang was I HAD THE TIME OF MY LIFE.

Blue -eyed soul baby !! 💜

JoJo - The deep voice and tall (6'3) one is Bill Medley and he is still alive and singin today. The high voice and blonde one is Bobby Hatfield. They used to sing in black clubs and the crowds would say "Yea, these brother are righteious." and that is how they got their name. Bobby died alone in a hotel room in Chicago in 2004.

Maverick and Goose sing this in the bar in TOP GUN.

This song was in Top Gun movie. Greatest duo EVER. Saw them live in 65. My girl & I saw them & it was incredible. Oh yeah there were Black folks there to.

That song was very famous in the 6os but the movie "top gun" ( part 1) made it very famous again between the 90s generation

Rumor has it when they first started and they were looking for gigs to play, they went by a different name. During one of those gigs they were booked inside a lounge that was predominantly black. At first the crowd was hostile towards them. But as they performed the crowd loved them. An appreciative black dude in the crowd told them that they were righteous brothers, hence their band name was born.😎

They weren't biological brothers. Their names are Bobby Hatfield ( tenor)and Bill Medley ( baritone, deeper voice). Bobby has passed away. After one of their early gigs some Black audience members told them they were 'righteous, brothers'.

That was a great analogy. Peanut butter and Jelly, perfect!!

The most requested song in the 20th century.

It’s the most played song in radio history!

Lot of babies where made to this song back in the day

Peanut butter is the tall one and the other is goose (bump) berry jelly 😁 Love your reactions sir.🤗🇨🇦

You've list that loving feeling was the most played song on radio and tv of the 20th century.

Most listened to song in 20th century .

Big song - just the most played song of the 20th century!

You said that this song had to be a big hit. Well, this song was the most played song of the 20th century. It was played more than 8 million times. No other song in history has ever come close to that. I grew up with music like this, and that was the greatest time to hear music like this, and from many different groups. Today's music is crap, compared to the music that I listened to. Something that someone mentioned that I feel applies to music....will this music stand the test of time? The music from my generation HAS stood the test of time. Will today's music stand the test of time?....no way, since today's music is garbage. If you like to listen to Motown music, which meant black groups, try listening to the Stylistics, "I'm Stone In Love With You." kzfaq.info/get/bejne/atBnpLV01tzQpIk.html Then there is Diana Ross and the Supremes, They had so many hits that it's impossible to list them all here, but here is just one. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pLxnZbyjp5eYZWg.html

You are right! They are not related. They got their name from a member of their audience who shouted out "You guys are some righteous brothers!" Appreciate your reaction! Peace! Keep going!

Keep watching he is there as well.

Bill Medley the baritone voice, sings the theme for the movie DIRTY DANCING. HAVING THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE.

I think your pbandjelly analogue was perfect.🤗🇨🇦

No no no no! Too much stopping, love

You made me LOL when you said “they got her back.” 😂👍🏻

Your BP&J comment is spot on.

Amazing super amazing duo!!!

HEY JIJO, THE RIGHTEOUS BROTHER WERE BILL MEDLEY AND BOBBY HATFIELD, THEY WERE UNRELATED BILL MEDLEY HAD THE BARITONE VOICE WHILE BOBBY HATFIELD HAD THE COUNTER TENOR. HIS VOCAL RANGE WAS GREATER AND SO HE SUNG "UNCHAINED MELODY" AS A SOLO WHILE THEY WERE NOT RELATED, MUSICALLY THEY WERE "SWITCHED ON", AND AS YOU CAN SEE THEY HARMONISED SO WELL.

Love

Also, the peanut butter and jelly analogy was incredible.

You heard that voice in the movie Dirty Dancing. He (Bill Medley) song a duet with Jennifer Warnes called The Time of My Life. It has been used for Sandals Beaches vacation commercials.

This song was in "Top Gun" movie, when Tom Cruise started singing this to the woman he liked.

Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes.. I'm having the time of my Life... Dirty Dancing

If you want to serenade a girl, this is how you do it. No expletives. No hoes. No bitches. Just plain simple love

If you sing this song, you already lost your girl, you just hopin she'll bring in on back!

I loved the “pb&j” analogy 😂🙌🏼

His voice was in dirty dancing movie with Jennifer Warnes time of my life

Your pbj sandwich is a perfect analogies. Good job

Just before they both stand up you see Bobby sitting with hand on his face. This was typical was models had photos headshot done back in the 60’s.

The most frequently played song on American radio in the 20th century.

This song is the best for me. I first heard it in Top Gun and since then it's number one for me. You heard him in Dirty Dancing.

💖💖💖

Thank you for keeping our music alive Have you reacted to the Bee Gees yet? Too much Heaven

Phil Spector produced this. It’s often called ones of the best records ever! They weren’t actually brothers.

They aren’t brothers as in related brothers from the same mother. Apparently in their early days they were performing in one of the southern states of the US and after a song some guy stood up and said “that was righteous, brother!”, and they were known as the Righteous Brothers from that point on.
