I was 19 and on my way to Vietnam when this song came out.

I'm 73 years old and love listening to their music. I was lucky to grow up with their beautiful music. Both of them were awesome. Bobby's unchained Melody was awesome. You need to listen to him sing it on the Andy Williams show in 1965. He's awesome!!!

This song was THE most played song on American radio and TV stations during the 20th century with a verified 8+ million plays. Since you loved the higher voice of the shorter Bobby Hatfield then you won't believe your ears if you react to the 1965 LIVE version of "Unchained Melody" by The Righteous Brothers. It is considered one of the greatest LIVE performances of all time!

Definitely one of the great romantic love songs of all time. Pure talent, pure passion no gimmicks or auto tune. Something you do not see today. Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield, birth of blue-eyed soul.

Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield were the best duo ever!! I love this song and also your reaction to this!!

Another big hit from them "You Are My Soul & Inspiration".

Bill Medley (Tall guy) and Bobby Hatfield (The Ken Doll) are the ones that the term "Blue Eyed Soul" was coined for. People thought they were Black vocalists, until they were on the Ed Sullivan Show on Sunday night in early 1965. What a great vocal duo. A ton of soul.

Pure voices….no auto anything needed ! The number 1 song to be covered ever ! Talent beyond the stars to come ! I was 8 yrs old when I first heard this and never left rock n roll ! Glad you love this as we all have for so long !

If you ever watch the movie Dirty Dancing and remember hearing the song “Time Of Your Life” Bill Medley the one on the tall deep voice is the one who sings it.

Unchained Melody! ❤️🎶❤️🎵❤️ Bobby is a big deal.

You hit the nail on the head with the bill and Bobby singing together one hitting the high notes bills hitting the low notes and when they harmonize its perfection! Check out the song Soul Inspiration by them, Little Latin Lupe Lu and Eb Tide!

Nothing like Bill medley ,and the late Bobby Hatfield ✌️♥️🙏🙏

If u love this song then u have a great taste in music 👍👍

You do such a fantastic job and you know you have to admit you've been looking good in your own way, and very professional. I enjoy just looking at you and your comments are on Target!!

That was a very honest and intelligent Reaction Kai. Yes I agree with other comments that you will be amazed at the solo Bobby Hatfield (the tenor) performs in the 1965 Live version of "Unchained Melody". Add "The Andy Williams show" to your search if u would like to hear them briefly joke about why Bobby is singing it solo. Many have called it the best live solo performance ever and the song has been recorded by near 700 performers but most agree Bobby's is near perfect and is the standard all other singers are judged by when they sing it.

I’ve probably watched reactions to this song in the 40 to 50 times range and it never gets old. I remember it from top gun but never listened to it on my own.

Powerful, memorable vocals: Tom Jones “I’ll never fall in love again” and the Animals “house of the rising sun” guaranteed you will be incredibly impressed

Gotta do “Unchained Melody” live in 1965 next.

Bill Medley is the tall one with the Baritone Voice and Bobby is the short one with the Tenor Voice

I listen to them singing this song at least once a day! Their voices blend together so well! Just love them, Unfortunately no duo can sing like this today!

You'll never walk alone by Righteous Brothers makes you feel like complete joy.

These two extroardinary men coming together to sing this amazing song in such a unique and special way is nothing short of legendary. As long as quality music is value they will live on. Your reaction expressions and comments are really nice and are spot on how i feel about them as well. great job

Bill Medley (baritone) and Bobby Hatfield (tenor) were members of a vocal quintet called The Paramours. When the group broke up, Bill & Bobby continued performing as a duo. They were playing a nightclub in Southern California that was a popular hangout for US marines stationed at a nearby marine base. During one of their songs, a black marine stood up and yelled at the stage, "That was righteous, Brothers!", and the name stuck. They basically invented the genre known as Blue-Eyed Soul. They had a number of hits in the 60s and into the 70s, and have gone down as one of the best American duos of all time. Loving Feeling was not only a number one hit for them, but it was also the most-played song on the radio in the 20th century! Sadly, Bobby passed away, but Bill is still actively performing to this day. Other great songs include You're My Soul and Inspiration (another number one hit that was sort of a sequel to Loving Feeling), Ebb Tide, Unchained Melody (a Bobby solo), Rock & Roll Heaven and Little Latin Lupe Lu.

Luv, your analysis...and opinions on these classics. Plus that smile...could lighten up anyone's darkest days.

A great song. I vaguely remember this from when I was a little girl. It’s angstful, like that feeling you get from the deadness in a marriage. You’re going through the motions, but it’s not the way it was. Unfortunately, life - especially the super difficult, life-altering events can ruin this most precious and cherished of all things. I know.

According to the BMI, this is the most listened to song of the 20th Century and also #1 in the top 100 of the Century! In case some people didn't notice, but this is the "pick-up" song Tom Cruise and "Goose" sung in the movie "Top Gun" . Check out their "Soul and Inspiration" and "Unchained Melody".

Unchained Melody live 1965 has got to be your next from them...Bobby Hatfield will blow your mind...Its 💯 Classic Classic Classic. 💯🔥👌

No songs like this anymore. This song was the most requested and played song in the 20th century...amazing and testing time.

excellent, specific points you covered. and you're articulate and put your thoughts together very, very well. Good job!!

Love your reaction !! Great song.

Don Griggs some it up pretty good. I'LL just add that with Bobby Hatfield having the tenor voice and Bill Melody was the baritone voice they shouldn't have blended together but they did and it was pure magic. Greatest duo ever.

Have you ever heard the Shangri-la's? They are a girl group from the early 60's and did Leader of the Pack. I'm old and was raised by really old Grandparents, so my first crushes were on the girl bands of the 60's, as that was what I was exposed too. This Righteous Brothers song is excellent! Good reaction!

Very very nice reaction to “You’ve lost that loving feeling”!! It was spot on👍👍. You must react to “Unchained Melody” , one of the most beautiful and romantic songs of all time. It’s a solo by Bobby Hatfield, the one with the higher voice. The live version is the best!!! Keep the great work,. Looking forward to more great reactions!!😎👍👍👍

pure talent

Definitely Soulful ... From the group called the start of Blue-eyed Soul

One o' those songs that define an age... I was a sophomore in high school... jeez we had some great music.

Unchained Melody. It's a solo effort by Bobby Hatfield, the one with higher voice. It was a top ten hit in the 60s and again in the 80s. Unchained Melody has probably covered by more singers than you can imagine, but the Righteous Brothers did it better than anyone else.

Excellent description.....Two of the Best...👍

The very best!!!!!!!!!

Kai I'm 69 and in southern California (at its height) was immersed in much of the great music of the 60s and 70s. An artist who had a couple great hits in the 60s was Johnny Rivers. Please react to The Poor Side of Town. I'll suggest more if you like that one.

Beautiful soulful voice

Unchained Melody, Soul and Inspiration, and For once in my Life are worth checking out. I always. dug their music. Heard it on the radio when they were on the charts. Bill(deep voice) had a solo hit Brown Eyed Woman in 1968, I love it. Best success on yr channel.

Classic song. They were such a smooth, elegant act. For some more vintage ballads, I would recommend a couple of 70's songs. The Carpenters: We Only Just Begun. Video. Often considered the best female vocalist of her time. Bee Gees: How Deep Is Your Love. Video. Amazing harmonies and beautiful production. If you are trying to build your channel here are three amazing and highly popular reaction songs/artists: Dimash Kudaibergen: SOS. Live on Singer or Slavic Bazaar. Arguably the best singer alive today. Marcelito Pomoy: The Prayer. Live on the Wish Bus. Another unique and surprising performance, from one of the best voices around. Disturbed: The Sound of Silence. Video or Live on Conan. Their now classic cover of a 60's Pop hit. Powerful and deep.

Bill Medley - the guy singing lead on this particular song - did a duet you might have heard before with Jennifer Warnes for the "Dirty Dancing" soundtrack, circa 1986 or so. "(I've Had) The Time of My Life."

Home free, man of constant sorrow, its an a acapella group or one of their other covers

Great reaction to a truly classic song. Thank you!

always cracks me up, the beginning everyone is loving Bill Medley's voice, and then the song goes to the "bring it on back" phase and everyone LOVES Bobby Hatfields voice. Both are excellent in this song, wasn't this one of the Phil Spector wall of sound songs?

A great song brilliantly sung. If you like Bobby Hatfield's high notes here, listen to the 1965 live version of "Unchained Melody", unbelievable. Also an interesting little fact here is that one of the backing singers is a young lady called Cher.

The singer with the highest pitch voice is Bobby Hatfield check out his soul performance of Unchained Melody it'll blow you away

Like your attention to the music and performers. Yes, ‘Unchained Melody’ may bring even more great feelings ! Peace & Love 💕

Greatest song, voice, performance goes to Bobby Hatfield, unchained melody, 1965 on Andy Williams show, hands down. It makes a grown man cry !😳 And you are soooo cute girl ❤️

Let’s face it! They’re best songs are done Live

Elvis and Hawaiian Wedding Song is another heart melter.

Welcome back to the era of pure music and pure talent. I watched you enjoy this song on video. We never had video back in the day. ....I'm 70 years old. I've subbed.

No auto-tune!

your enthusiasm is infectious!

they are awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and you are adorable

BLUE EYED SOUL !!!

Love your reaction..one more thing..you are so pretty!

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...

Back when men sang TO women not AT them.

Love me some Righteous Bros!!

So many black folks think that they were black until they see this and they are amazed. I used to sing this to my girlfriend when I was much younger when it played on the radio. This and Unchained Melody. You might want to check out The Intruders "I wanna Know Your Name too. I bet you'll like it too. I used to sing that to an old girlfriend of mine too. I can still remember most of the words too and I'm 68 now.

This song was in the movie'Ghost' in 1990.

There's a lot of songs from The Righteous Brothers you are really love

R.I P Bobby Hatfield

Unchained Melody and Summertime by the Righteous Brothers would tickle your eardrums

Top shelf stuff.

Going to agree with a few others. You really should do Unchained Melody. There are a couple of live performances out there on KZfaq. It doesn't matter which one you pick. It is a real showcase of Bobby Hatfield's voice. A lot of artists have done it but Hatfield's in my opinion is the best. After you listen to it and react you may want to listen to an indepth analysis by A British Guitarist (Fil of Wings of Pegasus)

My first time seeing you react , great job

Unchained Melody live reaction is a solo by Bobby Hatfield. The shorter blonde with higher vocals. A must.

Oh! I just thought of a song I think you’d love because you loved the Righteous Brothers’ harmonies so much. More Than Words by Extreme. Gorgeous harmonies, I promise, and I taught music for 20 years so I appreciate some great harmonies.

Listen to the second singer lead on “Unchained Melody” by them

In Denver this was released on New years Eve, 1964 --65.------------------Bill Medley & Bobby Hatfield. ----------------written by Jeff Barry , Ellie Greenwich & Phil Spector. ------------Recorded here in LA, AT GOLD STAR STUDIO, produced / arranged, by Phil Spector.------------------------WolfSky9, 74 y/o

There will never be another couple of decades like the 60’s and 70’s. Being 68, I guess I made be a bit prejudice, but come on! Everyone knows it! 😎👏👏👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Bobby passed away in 2003. But his legacy will always live on forever in the heart's of millions from now on until the end of time.

On their early recordings one of their back up singers was a teenage girl named Cher. Wonder what happened to her😎

Roy Orbison Oh pretty woman & ABBA Dancing queen

Much better than most of today's stuff

Another delightfulm performance on KZfaq is from the musical West Side story. It is entitled "PLACIDO DOMINGO-ANA MARIA MARTINEZ-'TONIGHT' Duet". Puerto Rican soprano Ana Maria Martinez has made the part of Maria relatable to opera fans.

Great Song. Great Reaction.

You have a beautiful smile 🥰

You should give The Crystals a try, one of the girl groups from this same 1960s time period. "Then He Kissed Me" and "Da Doo Ron Ron" are two of their hits. Or the Ronettes "Be My Baby". Or "Runaround Sue" by Dion.

This is a song that should've been in a movie. Perhaps a movie where it's performed in a bar where the lead actor sings it to a pretty girl to get her to go home with him, but she doesn't at first. It's the whole "catch me if you can" romance thing. Hey, y'all don't steal this idea from me. I'm going to a high dollar producer Monday and pitch this idea to him. This is going to be great. Watch for my name in the credits in THE movie of the summer in about 2 years. Shhhhh, mum's the word.

This is all live and just talent. That's back in the day when your voices were either there or not and this is a perfect example. Today - too much auto tuning and adjustments going on. True talent is with the voice and the person as is here. Awesome!

Love that song. If you got the chance, please check out another song sang by The Righteous Brothers called "You're my Soul and Inspiration". Thank you very much. God bless you.

This was called blue eyed soul

You have some songs that you just don't want it to end, at least not yet, this is one of them. I still catch myself saying, "no don't stop" , ur spot on with your reaction, the harmony of these 2 may very well be like the movie title that Jack Nicholson was in "As Good As It Gets", because it's literally 2 great voices blending seamlessly into a single great voice and if ever there was blue eyed soul, you just witnessed it. You can hear it and you can feel it. A lot of covers have been performed to this song, nothing even close to this one. "As Good As It Gets^ l ,again .....

By the way love your hair awesome

Fun fact: Cher is one of the backup singers.

Working at Disneyland I got to see the righteous brothers perform on the tomorrowland stage long long time ago.

They have been nicked name, Blue Eyed Soul by a DJ after hearing them sing.

If you pay attention to detail, you will notice that at no time during the song do their eyes ever meet. They were to be singing in harmony to a woman as one voice, and definitely NOT to each other! One would assume that it was very important, in those days, that they not seem for even a second to be singing to each other. lol

A gift from GOD

You just have to check out the beautiful version of "You'll never walk alone by Righteous Brothers.

Bill Medley the one doing the main singing on this track did (i,ve had) the time of my life with Jennifer Warnes from Dirty Dancing

So iconic , try unchained melody live also another great singer Tom Jones ill never fall in love again live 1967

now you know what your parents and grandparents mean when they say "they do't make songs like we use to".... peace

This was called blue-eyed soul..

Bobby Hatfield (higher tones) supposedly has a 4 octave range
