Bobby will be melting young and older ladies hearts with this performance for as long as there's ways to hear music and there are ladies to hear it...timeless

This beautiful style of singing was called "blue-eyed soul" back in the 60's. Priceless voice!!!

From what I’ve heard there’s never been a single person that can say anything bad about this man. Just a gem of a human.

One of the greatest vocal performances ever recorded.

OMG, the late Bobby Hatfield! I was 15 yrs old when I watched him sing this beautiful song on the Andy Williams show in 1965. You need to listen Bobby sing live Summertime song. Both of these guys together are awesome. I still play their greatest CD in my car. I'm 74 yrs old and never get tired of listening to their music. RIP Bobby! ❤❤❤

Perhaps the greatest live performance ever.

This is live 1965. No auto-tune or gimmick's. Just pure voice.

Likely one of the greatest love songs ever created. He is longing for his love..calling, pleading, missing her and he calls out to her.

This song has been sung by hundreds of singers but none were as good as Bobby Hatfield. The studio version (used in 'Ghost') was great but this live version is stupendous. No auto tune or gimmicks just pure talent. He had a cold, his mother was watching him perform professionally for the first time and he suffered with stage fright. If you watch at the end he hits the high note without a strained look on his face like other singers do when hitting high notes.

Sweet,handsome,charming and ultra talented Bobby Hatfield may he RIP.

Soul doesn't care about color. Bobby here is a master at it.

Wow! Pretty young ladies of today appreciating Bobby Hatfield of The Righteous Brothers from almost 60 years ago. I imagine this will be the same for decades to come. Great reaction.

Greatest performance in history .

I never get tired of watching this performance. Its just so beautiful. 😍👏👏👍👍

I love his effortless delivery. He didn't even look like he was trying

It is amazing when someone can use their voice as a musical instrument like this.

RIP Bobby Hatfield .

No autotune, no studio production and studio equipment. Just Bobby Hatfield holding a wired, handheld mini microphone singing in front of a live audience. And he had that range withzeroefgort; the music just flowed out of him.

"Still wooing ladies 60yrs later....

Nobody had vocals like Bobby Hatfield. There have been other artist which have tried to match his sing ability. NO BODY EVER HAS. Not even Elvis . Bobby owned this song then and still does more than 55 years later. Mind you this was a live performance.

I was 7 when I heard this for the first time, I thought Bill Medley was my Uncle Ernie, they looked so much alike. My grandma called this type of music baby making music lol. I'm so sorry girls, I can hear the music, but I can't hear what you two are saying, so I can only go by the smiles on your faces.

Way better than the studio record girls! Bobby would be 83 this year, he's 25 here in 1965. He die at age 63 in a Kalamazoo MI hotel in 2003 while on tour with Bill, less than an hour from my house. I almost bought tickets to that show was too busy, I was a music teacher. the next day I heard the news and cried all the way to school...i grew up as kid with their music, the Beatles, Motown, everything. Bill is still around. Imagine how devastated Bill must have been.

Lae is the straw the that stirs the drink. 😉 Keep smiling!

Very nice reaction. That was Bobby Hatfield singing this. Bill Medley has the deeper voice. I'm sure you would love hearing Bobby Hatfield singing "Summertime" from "Porgy and Bess."

Unchained Melody: Bobby Hatfield live performance. The Andy Williams Show- Episode #4.5 Episode aired: Monday, Oct 25, 1965: Robert Lee Hatfield (August 10, 1940 - November 5, 2003) Bobby Hatfield, who had a higher countertenor voice ( in this performance his range is an incredible: D3 to G5 sharp) to Bill Medley’s, William Thomas Medley (born September 19, 1940) baritone, sang lead on this track. It was his idea to record it, since Medley and Hatfield were each allowed to choose a song to sing as a solo vocalist on their albums. Both wanted to sing "Unchained Melody" for their fourth album, but Hatfield won the coin toss. As Medley tells it, Hatfield knew the song well, and was a big fan of the Roy Hamilton and Al Hibbler versions of the song. *In Nov. 2003 Hatfield died of a heart attack at age 63. The Righteous Brothers version was a huge hit, but it was recorded with far more modest expectations. Phil Spector considered it album filler and released it as a B-side. The single had "Unchained Melody," with no producer credit on the label, as the flip to Gerry Goffin and Carole King's "Hung on You," but many DJs preferred "Unchained Melody" and played that one instead. This infuriated Spector, who subsequently left no doubt (actually calling DJs telling them to play “Hung On You” not “Unchained Melody “)as to which side of a Philles single was the A-side. * The famous climax of this song where Bobby Hatfield sings the high "I need your love" line wasn't how the song was written. In an interview with Bill Medley, he explained that Hatfield did two takes of the song, then left. He would often reconsider his performance and come back later to change it, and that's what he did on this track, returning to ask Medley if he could make an edit. This was no easy task, since with a maximum of four tracks to work with, you had to record over part of the original take, but Medley accommodated and Hatfield delivered that soaring vocal line. Said Medley: "I punched that in and before he left he said, 'No, I can do it better. ’And I said, 'No, you can't.' [Laughs] And I think it's a big part of that song." * This was released on Philles Records, Phil Spector's label. Spector, known for his "Wall Of Sound" technique, did not produce this - Bill Medley did. In a 2007 statement to the Forgotten Hits newsletter, Medley said: "You have to remember that I was producing our stuff before Phil Spector... I mean I produced 'Little Latin Lupe Lu,' 'My Babe' and all that stuff. Then when we went with Phil, Phil asked me if I would produce the albums because it was too time consuming for him to produce the entire albums. So he was going to do the singles and I would do the album. And so that's how that happened and that's how I produced 'Unchained Melody,' which Phil Spector apparently now takes credit for. He can have the credit. And I'm not a producer. I know how to produce. But it's obviously not a Spector production. 'Unchained Melody' was never intended to be the single... it was produced to be on the album. It was put on the B side of a Phil Spector single 'Hung On You' and the minute it was released 'Unchained Melody' just went through the roof." Hatfield’s rendition of “Unchained Melody” although not the original, is the ‘gold standard’.

To you young ladies music is not a color music is a sound.❤

They have an amazing song to honor all the great artists no longer with us. It's called Rock and Roll Heaven.

Great reaction!

It is very generous of Shawn and Mel to let the both of you record your music video reactions in their “reaction room”. I wish for the both of you all the best in your music video reactions journeys. :-)

This is what is referred to as "Blue Eyed Soul". Also, this was in the days before autoune, etc. Just pure talent, either you had it or you didn't. Bobby Hatfield had it. Great reaction :) BTW, here's a link to another song featuring both of them: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q7WejLxqst2Wdps.html

Love the energy you bring to these reactions..😊

1965 on The Andy Williams show and 100% live performance. I was eight years old and still remember this just as I remember The Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show in February, 1964 the night America saw The Beatles for the first time. 73 million people tuned in that night which is still a record in the US for a TV audience to watch an entertainment show. By the way, I love the picture of the GOAT'S behind you girls which would be The Beatles. Greatest Of All Time! Period and it ain't even close. Peace ❤

These guys have soul ... As Morgan Freeman said, 'the only way to stop racism is to quit talking about it.' We need to stop including race when it's not necessary.

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.

Soul doesn't have a race-it is just soul. Liked your reaction though.

What a beautiful reaction!

Bobby is responsible for more children then a fertility clinic,❤

It's called "Blue eyed soul"

And. . . 2 more lovely ladies bite the dust, LOL.

Mr. Hatfield sure makes it look awful easy doesn't he? Great song and great performance!!!

you two are amazing!

Song was about a guy in jail/ prison who was hoping his girlfriend/wife would wait for him.thus Unchained Melody.

Great reaction to a timeless classic. I enjoyed it a lot more with the comments and reaction of the young lady with red hair. You are a sweetheart. ❤

Many tried this--including ELVIS and NONE could hold a candle to Bobby's version...

No correcting, no electric gimmicks or auto tune. Back in the day singers had to have talent!

Beautiful reactions

Red hair lady should be only one here for reaction! 😊😎

Who needed a big microphone with a voice like that.

I FEEL SORRY FOR THIS GENERATION WHO DOES NOT HAVE A CHANCE TO EXPERIENCE MUSIC THE WAY WE DID IN THE GOLDEN DAYS. THERE WAS NO SPECIAL EFFECTS, NO DVDs, NO LIPSYNKING. YOU JUST WENT TO THE CONCERTS. THE BANDS WERE LIVE, THE VOICES AND THE LYRICS WERE OUT OF THIS WORLD! WHETHER IT WAS DO WAP, ROCK AND ROLL (1950-1960's) OR DISCO (LATE 1970-1990's) THE VOICES AND THE LYRICS WERE THE BOMB! THEY MEANT SOMETHING.

This song is the beauty of a man's love and modern women fight so hard to not have this.

It's ok to smile

Angel elite. No matter the color.

Soul is from the person not the race we all have it in side us

Bill Medley -- Brown-eyed Woman

This song was in the movie Ghost. Maybe you heard it there?!

Couldn't hear you very well your mike isn't clear, but what a lovely reaction.

Y’all are supercute!

luv how u ladies turned down ur speaking box so the song is louder. Some reactors do the opposite. Now I can hear too. Will subscribe. Thanku

Snug…..perfect word!

*_RIGHTEOUS_*

Interesting that the current generation need to 'woop n holler' over the Artist. Must be a carry over from the rude talking on cell phones in public confined spaces culture.

then when Bobby started again I would get blasted out of my chair., but I did like and subscribe.

Ladies please turn the bass up. Thank you.

Look at u guys. Lexington ky here. Hello.

Bobby was a contra-tenor. Rare.

Hey you people realize this was way before atuo tune right ?? It was nothing but pure natural talent with a ancient sound system

This is one song of maybe 3 that has perfect math. 1965. No help.

Blue-eyed Soul...white men can jump too. 😉

That was fun to watch except for the one that look like she had a tummy ache on the right lol. No smiling no tears to the one on the right you took enjoyment out of what could have been a perfect video for the probably thousands of viewers, so when you're on the air whatever is bugging you get it out of your system before you go on the air so we don't have to see it.

He supposedly had a cold during this performance.

Thank you. I really enjoyed it. Please. play "Too much Heaven"by The Bee Gees".Thanks.

Hell I’m 70 white still makes me weep song. Love has no color.

The sad part he passed away so young

need to get closer to mic

Welcome to the best

The one in the black top does not seem to be there. No emotion, no smile!

1965

Almost righteous:).

Appreciated your reaction to Unchained Melody but you need to do something about your volume, when Bobby is singing normal volume but when you would pause and say something your volume dropped so low could not hear you, I turned vol up to hear you speak.

White men can sing as well you know.

pay attention to when you pause.... wait for a break.

He and Whitney are 2.

os falta camilo sesto detrás en las fotos.

1:30,

Check the girl in the black shirt’s pulse she may be dead

Check out them singing I Just Want to Make Love to You..

Why are you stopping in the middle of him singing wait until the end

Hard to believe from watching this that Bobby threw up before these performances from stage fright. Sadly Bobby died from cocaine abuse but he always managed to pull himself together to perform for us

Bobby had a very very bad heart disease and was in my much pain hence he used a small amount of cocaine. This use cause onset of death. You made it sound like he over dosed.

Your volume is all fd up. The song went blank

Ghost

IS YOUR PARTNER ANGRY ALL THE TIME?

The mic needs to be closer to your mouths.

Surely missed

Elvis sang this but he couldn't hit the high notes or get it right.

lea be overacting and brook got that " when this kraker krap overso I can get back to hardcore hoodie gangsta rap"

Music volume is good... your voices are muddled and we cant here you

The bubbly smiley girls reaction is pretty fucking epic :) Its so nice to see other people enjoying the beautiful things in life :)

Your partner is just lost.... sorry! Looking bored!
