RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS "I JUST WANNA MAKE LOVE TO YOU". IT'S A BRAND NEW REACTION! CHECK IT OUT: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fN13YKdosL20lWg.html

"Old as Hell...released in December 1964"...I graduated from high school in May 1964, and it is my sad duty to inform you that most of the best music this planet will ever see came before you were born.

Righteous Bros aptly named , still revered today. Pure talent & divine voices. No autotune then just live performances , best music from decades past , 60's ,70's crystal clear voices . RIP Bobby , heavenly concerts now 😘

Those were the good old times, when singers could actually sing^^

And the Righteous Brothers are wearing cuff links! Classy and powerful in perfect harmony.

I'm thrilled to see the younger generations enjoying great music... the music I grew up with. I was 10 years old when this came out. We were thrilled to hear the Righteous Brothers back then, too. They were good music to sing along to. And yes, their harmonies were superb!

They are the real deal. No auto tune. Just old fashioned skill.

Nice to see you younger people listening to really great music of the 60's, 70's and 80's. Enjoy!

I was a sophomore in high school when this song came out in 1964. These guys were so talented! Love all their songs Classics!!! ❤❤❤❤

I got to see them live several times when I lived in Las Vegas during the mid-90's. Just amazing singers who always put on a helluva show. RIP, Bobby Hatfield.

The most listened to song of the 20th century .RIP Bobby

Bobby is one of a kind ❤. He reaches different tones. No one can compare.

Xavier, 23 years after this 1964 song, the tall, thin baritone Righteous Brother, Bill Medley, had another No. 1 song in the U.S. called "(I've Had) The Time of My Life." It was from the 1987 movie soundtrack to "Dirty Dancing," and he sang it with Jennifer Warnes.

I love this song and performance ...thanks for your lovely reaction!

It's great to see younger people who appreciate good music!

Absolutely right on! Bobby Hatfield can create so much power in his vocals. Beautiful live videos 😊.

It was the guy on the left that sang Unchained Melody. His performance was flawless.

Awesome best music ever 60's &70's , no autotune then just pure natural talent ! Now singing with the angels 😇 Bobby sang unchained melody .

This song came out when I was born. Great duo. The most played song in the 20th century on radio and tv. Over 8 million plays .I think that is amazing considering the legendary performers back then. Blue Eyed Soul they were called.

love seeing all these young people reacting in the same way I did back in the 1960s!

Great song Great talented artist the lyrics are for anyone that have experienced a dying love. Also we must mention the production of this classic song that will continue to move hearts and memories with these words. I still get goosebumps and tearful thinking about a lost love I had I still think about her to this day. 😞

Thanks for that old comment. A bunch of us "Old-as-hellers" enjoy watching you youngsters enjoying the music we grew up with. You might even say....ageless music. We still sing hymns in Church written 1, 2, 3, 4 and 500 years ago that are as fresh as today. Music can be ageless. Btw the duo performed in a bar near a Marine base in CA. There were several black marines who would go just to hear them. They would say "you're righteous, brothers!" They took that as their moniker.

Blue-eyed soul. In the days before "Auto-tune". You should check out Roy Orbison. "Pretty Woman" or "In Dreams" are a good place to start.

This is back when you actually needed talent to be in the music business. This was not done with smoke and mirrors and studio tricks. This is exactly what Bill (baritone) Medley and Bobby Hatfield sounded like live. They were amazing. They complimented each other seemlessly. It does my heart good to see young ppl like you discover them for the first time and be awe struck by their performance.

I love how you give a technical look at their remarkable talents--keep it up!!

Hey, I graduated from HS in 1964 and I’ll admit I’m old, 73, but what a time to be alive just for the MUSIC!!

when you pause, try to avoid the key moments, and always go back at least 5 seconds, so we can patch the break

What do you mean old as hell. I was sixteen when it came out. Many evenings sitting round the jukebox with friends listening to the best music ever. The birth of rock. And real singers.

I was 8 years old when this song came out, Glad you young one get to hear the music I grew up on.... No swearing or Killing or Drugs.. just plain old fun..

Fantastic review...spot on!!!👍👍🌹🌹🌹🌹

It’s phenomenal

For some reason I've been watching a bunch of these reaction videos lately. I have to say yours are at the top of the list. Great reactions, insightful, and enjoyable to watch. Great job!

Awesome!

OUTSTANDING artist I grew up with them and mowton...

Xavier, l'm very happy to see how you love the good music and l am glad that you share it with us. Thank you! 🎶😊

The one who sang Unchained Melody is Bobby Hatfield....he has the tenor voice. He passed in 2003. Bill Medley is still alive.

What a concept...……………...People who can really sing!

youll love soul and inspiration by them..classic!!!

Great music needs no explanation

The baritone is Bill Medley. Bobbie Hatfield is his brother. BTW 1964 isn't so far back for us who were there. We had, and still have, the best music. I'm glad you've been able to enjoy it. You truly are a music ghuru.

Great stuff my man, cherish the classics and the early roots off rock and roll,gold, pure gold, peace

I was your age when the Righteous Brothers hit the charts, and fell in love with my girl friend all over again each time we listened to one of their songs. It pleases me when a young guy likes the music from back in my day.

BTW Love the Righteous Brothers, my era of music, can't beat the oldies my friend.

Cool reaction, Thank you.

Bill Medley, man on the right, sings on "Time of my Life" from the "Dirty Dancing" soundtrack. You should listen to that. It's like 20 years after this and his voice is still great!

No problem with your pausing, great reaction and incite!.

The baritone is Bill Medley (I've Had the Time of My Life.) The guy on the left, the tenor, Bobby Hatfield, did Unchained Melody.

It's Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield! This was a massive hit for them!

Really like your reaction, very insightful x

Now you need to do 'Soul and Inspiration' by the Righteous Brothers. You'll love it.

This song is as old as hell, just like me, and it warms "this old heart of mine" [ another great song, by the way] to see the young generation discovering and appreciating the talent that was around when I was young.

I grew up with these songs, and I envy you being 17 and hearing them for the first time! It's great that you love and appreciate this classic music!

“You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling” was the most-played song of the 20th century on American radio, getting over eight million plays.

Don't stop now, you will enjoy Soul and Inspiration by them as well.

Xavier, I'm so glad to see your reaction to this music from my youth. Ironically, Bill Medley graduated from my High School in Orange Co. and they named the auditorium after him. The Righteous Brothers are one of a kind! Listen to 'My Babe' next.

Bobby Harfield who sang unchained melody alone his voice was Tenor and Bill Medley was Baratone Bass both amazing

The blond guy on the left is Bobby Hatfield, the tall dude is Bill Medley. Before they hit it big they were playing the circuit anywhere they could get a "gig". A band of black musicians told them after a performance; "Man! You two are Righteous!" The name stuck. These two were the first to be labled 'blue eyed soul'.

It makes me sad when I hear artists like Post Malone say "I can't sing, I just use autotune" when asked how they can sing so well. It takes effort to be great at something, granted, you probably will never reach the peak that is the Righteous Brothers but why can't artists sing? Why do they need digital pitch correction when it takes practice and patience to become a great singer? Just look at all the great artists out there in the past that worked at it and BECAME great singers. Even if their voice was strange or gravelly, it's still possible. Anyone can be a Tom Waits. You could even be as great as the Righteous Brothers, but it requires effort. I hope a new wave in music comes around where the artists don't rely on computers and, instead, use them as the musical instruments they're meant to be, not a "correction" for their lack of pitch.

All live in one take with no autotuned LOL !

03:11 Look at the guy on the left just waiting with his hand on his head for his moment

This is such a CLASSIC! The Righteous Brothers were OUTSTANDING.

You just listened to one of the best songs to ever be made.Your reaction was everyone’s reaction in general.RIP Bobby.

Glad you and many others are catching up to the Righteous Brothers. I saw them twice back during that time. Try (You're My) Soul And Inspiration, another great song by these guys. You're about ready for Jackie Wilson and "Lonely Teardrops", "To Be Loved" and "She's Alright".

Bobby Harfield and Bill Medley were epic and songs like this were major parts in the soundtrak of my life.. My father went to school with Bill in Santa Anna, CA back in the late 50's and due to that relationship, I heard all their stuff. It's great that after 55 years a song like this can get the attention and admiration of younger folks today.. Remember that there were no recording tricks with these guys beyond basic editing and noise reduction. No auto tuning or other trickery- just pure unadulterated talent.

GOLD

The guy on the left was Bobby Hatfield, and the taller singer was Bill Medley

Bobby Hatfield the blonde guy sang Unchained Melody. Bill Medley is singing the lead on this one. These guys had soul coming out of the pores of their skin. Soul has no color. Either you have it or you don't.

Xavier, this my 2nd watch of you reacting and you seem well schooled in music and singing. So let me give you a brief history of the Righteous Brothers. To start off these 2 gentlemen are not brothers. Bobby Hatfield and Bill Medley were in different groups before they met - Hatfield was in a group from Anaheim called the Variations, and Medley in a group from Santa Ana called the Paramours. Barry Rillera, a member of Medley's band who was also in Hatfield's group, suggested that they go see each other's show and perform together. Later, after a member of Paramours left in 1962, Hatfield and Medley joined forces and formed a new Paramours, which included Johnny Wimber (a founder of the Vineyard Movement) They started performing at a club called John's Black Derby in Santa Ana, and were signed to a small record label Moonglow in 1962. They released a single "There She Goes (She's Walking Away)" in December 1962. However, the Paramours did not have much success and soon broke up, leaving Hatfield and Medley to perform as a duo in 1963. According to Medley, they then adopted the name "The Righteous Brothers" for the duo because black Marines from the El Toro Marine base started calling them "righteous brothers". At the end of a performance, a black U.S. Marine in the audience would shout, "That was righteous, brothers!", and would greet them with "Hey righteous brothers, how you doin'?" on meeting them. The Righteous Brothers released three albums under the Moonglow label, one of these and a further compilation album were released after they had joined Phil Spector. They released 12 singles with Moonglow, but only two were moderate hits - "Little Latin Lupe Lu" and "My Babe" from their first album Right Now!. In August and September 1964, they opened for The Beatles in their first U.S. tour. However, they left before the tour finished as they were asked to appear on a new television show called Shindig!] they also felt unappreciated by the audience as they were then little known on the East Coast, and the audience demanded to hear the Beatles while they were performing. They returned to Los Angeles to tape the pilot for the show, and would later appear in the show regularly. Their next album was Some Blue-Eyed Soul; the term blue-eyed soul was first used to refer to The Righteous Brothers by black DJs, but after they became popular, the term became a general term for all white singers who sang what was then considered "black music". In October and November 1964, they opened for The Rolling Stones on their American tour. In 1964, music producer Phil Spector came across the Righteous Brothers when they performed in a show at the Cow Palace in Daly City, where one of Spector's acts, The Ronettes, was also appearing and he conducted the band for the show. Spector was impressed enough to arrange a deal with Moonglow in early October 1964 allowing him to record and release songs by the Righteous Brothers in the US, Canada and UK under his own label, Philles Records. Prior to this, all the songs Spector produced for Philles Records featured black singers; the Righteous Brothers would be his first white vocal group for the label, but they had a black vocal style, referred to as "blue-eyed soul", that suited Spector. Spector commissioned Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil to write a song for them, which turned out to be "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'". The song, released in late 1964, became their first major hit single and reached No. 1 in February 1965. Produced by Phil Spector, the record is often cited as one of the finest expressions of Spector's Wall of Sound production techniques. It is one of the most successful pop singles of its time, despite exceeding the then-standard length for radio play. Indeed, according to BMI, "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" became the most-played song on American radio and television of the 20th century, with more than eight million airplays by the end of 1999. The Righteous Brothers had several other hit singles with Philles Records in 1965, including "Just Once in My Life" and "Unchained Melody" (originally the B-side of "Hung on You"), both reaching the Billboard Top 10. "Unchained Melody" was produced by Medley; according to Medley, it was originally intended only as an album track, and Spector had asked him to produce the albums so Spector could spend time and money on producing singles. Later copies of the original 45 release credited Spector as producer when it became a hit I will leave it there for the Righteous Brothers history. But I will give you one little known fact and/or quirk about the song 'Unchained Melody'. When both Bobby and Bill first got the song they both emphatically wanted to be the one to sing it and the rivalry got pretty intense. So, and I am not sure who, got them to decide by a coin flip. The flip was made and Bobby one the flip and Sang the song, the rest as they say is history. Have fun doing your reactions. If you need any suggestions, I have 110,208 mp3's covering over 8,000 artists and 23,707 music videos covering 1,888 artists. Covering Rock & Roll and Blues from the 1930's up to today's music. I have more blues than any other genre. Later. Peace out---Kim Hellums

From what I've read, Xavier, this song is the most played in radio history, until May 2019, when "Every Breath You Take" by the Police took over the number one spot, I think. You've got good taste :-)

If This Song Is '' Old As Hell '' That Makes '' You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin' '' A Classic Song '' ! No One Will Ever Be Able To Sing The Righteous Brothers Song ' The Way They Did !. Though i heard it back in the day , i am glad that this generation is listing to it now .. And Loving It TOO ! The Reactions Are Great So Keep Them Coming . I Love The Surprised Looks .. They Make Me Smile !

I was backstage with them in 1964 for an interview for my high school newspaper. After the interview, they left with two groupie girls.

“And by the way this song is old as hell” hahaha! I love it, you’re appreciation for the music is fantastic!!

I watch this video over and over again in first time reaction videos. I'll watch this one again and again on your channel too. When I was a kid in 1964, if you missed it on the one black and white tv in the house because your dad was watching Sgt Philco or Laurence welk, that was it, it never played again. So all these years later, I'm discovering the few videos the righteous brothers made. Video wasn't even a word back then. Anyway, the Beatles took up all my time and attention.

U R brilliant. U know what U R talking about.

After all these years, I still get chills when I hear this song ❤️ 💚 💙 💜 Few Fun Facts: They got their name from some black marines who saw them perform as the “Paramours” in 1963 & they shouted, “that was righteous brothers!” Also, the infamous Cher was part of the backing vocals, before she became famous, & last but not least, their manager booked them into a black nightclub in Watts, California before they got big, & the patrons of the club started throwing things at them on stage when they saw they were white, & The Righteous Brothers didn't know what to do, so they just started singing, & all the patrons sat down with their mouths open, & wouldn't let them leave after that, & the term, Blue Eyed Soul, was born 😃 👓 👓 😃

They are actually brothers. That kind of explains why they’re voices are so smooth together. They’ve probably done this together since their childhood. They’ve always had to harmonize in life and music. They are truly family, and it definitely resonates in their comfort and ease with each other.

They're not biological brothers. If I recall the story correctly of how they "earned" their stage name is they went to perform in an all black club. They were met with White Men Can't Sing skepticism. They won the approval of the crowd saying that the brothers sound was righteous

when music was music not garbage. Music used to lift you up now all it does is tear you down. Today's music will never stand the test of time. When a song is played and heard 30 or 40 years later that's good music.

That was NUTS lol

Can’t get enough Righteous Brothers. Try Bill Medley duo with Jennifer Warnes doing the Time Of My Life. Haven’t heard any other people react to it. Be the first. I know you appreciate good music. Thx

When you reacted to "Unchained Melody". That was Bobby Hatfield on his own. After Bill Medley's death. Bill Medley was the baritone.

I hope you realize that old people have always been cool. 😁

You should do Extreme. More than words. Two men and a guitar will steal your heart.

Bill Medley is singing the baritone. Bobby Hatfield sings the high pitch.

Unchained Melody was Bobby Hatfield who is the other guy in righteous Brothers. Bill Medley is the one that is taller of the two

Love your appreciation. And you know your vocal techniques! Subscribing!

I am subscribing , because your reaction was emotional , as well as intelligent . I like your style

Great reaction bro!!!

Hi , I wanted to have you check one more song it's bill medley and Jennifer warnes singing the time of my life. Bill medley is the baritone half of the righteous brothers and Bobby Hatfield is the other half that you heard sing unchained Melody. They were one of my all time favorite show of the sixties to eighties.

That was Bobby Hatfield......a genius talent

If you like the Righteous Brothers give a listen to “Rock And Roll Heaven from 1974. It’s fantastic.

Shoutout my Filipino homey. Subbed.

If you like harmony as much as you appear to, there is a brother/sister duo called the Carpenters. They made a sound together that is virtually unmatched even today. Please hear the studio version of Close To You, a former #1 hit from 1970. Also unmatched for their harmonies were the Beatles. Please hear the song called If I Fell. The Beatles were the kings of love songs and had 20 #1 hits in the span of only seven years. Not to hear these two fantastic musical acts would be to cheat yourself, badly!

Check out The Carpenters (rainy days and mondays) Roy Orbison (pretty woman) K.D. Lang (crying) You'll be blessed

Bill Medley was widely known for his bass-baritone voice. So, you are correct also, Xavier.

If you haven't reacted yet, please do Only You, My Prayer, and Somewhere by Bobby Hatfield of the Righteous Brothers.

“This song is old as hell; released in 1964” - hey! i was 17!!!!

Xavier, I was listening to these guys when I was your age, and I am old enough to be your grandpa, LOL. It does my heat good to see you enjoying this timeless music. You'd be a good grandson. And BTW, you know a lot more about the technical aspects of the vocals than I ever did or will. Have you tried any Patsy Cline? Another really beautiful voice.

Excellent review/reaction.

I was 3 when this came out and i remember hearing it along with I wanna hold your hand by the beatles. The first 2 songs i can remember.
