I love ❤️ seeing all the reactions to the BeeGees…

You would have loved the sixties.

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 each sang a song 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. Sadly, on Nov. 5, 2003 Hatfield died of a heart attack in a Michigan hotel room just prior to a Righteous Brothers performance, apparently in his sleep at age 63. The Righteous Brothers version was , oddly enough a huge hit because it was recorded merely as a filler song for their fourth album, not for release as a single. Philles Records owner/producer 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 B-side to writers 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 his 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 to 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!’ [Medley 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' but 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’.

Excellence in reactions... ✌ 🎅

This song could have been perfection without a stupid bridge where "my boy" didn't care she was cheating. Who ruined this? This song is epic but I Can't Go For That.

Now that is the definition of a reaction especially at 4-45 perfect

Aww c'mon listen it's great brother

How come I couldn't be a Bee Gee? I enjoyed your mighty comments my young brother!

I’m really surprised that everybody reaction to The Bee Gees is appreciated. With the music that is by played now it’s awesome to get these reviews

Can’t forget mom’s popping in the cassette every morning ❤️!!😊

Took to the end of the song to realize he's talking about trains ??

I'm a senior citizen now. We seniors were truly blessed to have been experienced great music of the 60's, 70's and into the 80's. No computers, auto tune, ear phones. The music was live as they played it. But the top of the list is Queen. All four band members were master class musicians. And as the Gods would have it, they somehow were put together to make phenomenal amazing music. And Freddie Mercury was sent from the heavens to gift us with his incredible voice. Magic happened on the stages that Queen graced.

Great reaction!❤ This is a deep song ( deep lyrics.) You did this 2 yrs ago so Im guessing you've listened to a lot of BeeGees since then. I listen to the full albums because a lot of the really good ones were never released as singles! Main Course is my favorite album but most of their 22 studio albums have 4, 5, or 6 amazing gems in them that should have been released as singles. ❤ Please react to Morning of my Life - a 60s gem about childhood.

You have the BEST REACTION EVER!❤ Your reactions to this song reflect how I felt when I first heard this about 9 months ago. I literally cried because it is sooo beautiful. I grew up loving their 60s and Main Course album as well as their Saturday Night Fever soundtrack. Then I lost touch & stopped following them, listening to other music and bands. So happy to rediscover the BeeGees. I'm 64 and so glad your Generation Z & Millenials are discovering them too!! Go Spotify! The internet is a beautiful thing. lol!❤

Check out It was a very good year

He made over 2,000 recordings so you’ve got a way to go yet. 👍🏻

Even the Muppets did a version of Bohemian Rhapsody. Check it out for a laugh.

Justin Bieber couldn’t touch this!! The BeeGees has more talent in their pinkie finger than Bieber has in his whole body!

please react owl city - car trouble

Listen to how deep is your love another bee gee song

I understand when you say 'this is too much", 'too much heaven" 😊 I am moved to see your reaction here, you know great music when you hear it, excellent and encouraging reaction!!!!

no curse word no trash talk no naked woman no autotune just pure talent and chill dude btw great react bro

Justin Bieber doesn't have the talent to even try to redue a bee gees song, he can't hold a candle to compare with them

Lmao you had me at “Black Guy reacts” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Fantastic!!!

Thank you so much for this!

There is NO ONE who can do this better than the Bee Gee's who wrote 100's of hits not only for themselves but for great artists....like Celine Dion ...Dianna Ross....Dian Warwick...Barbra Streisand, Dolly Parton and oh so many more...plus collaborations with others like the great Michael Jackson.... The entire sound track for Saturday Night Fever...etc etc. More from these legends please. Hi from Australia

WELCOME TO AC/DC, DUDE...... you're going to love the ride.

I never had so much fun watching a review!

Buckets of talent

A little background: Love your Bee Gee reactions of the brothers (Barry - the tallest with the beard, Robin, no beard, & Maurice, the shortest with beard - Gibb) who wrote the words & music to all their songs, as well as songs for other artists. They were also Producers and played instruments on their records! They had hits in the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, and 2000s, for a 5 decade career! You can find videos of them performing on TV as early as 1960 when they were just children. Barry, the oldest, is the only one still alive today. He's living in Miami with his wife, Linda, of over 53 years! They also had a younger brother, Andy Gibb, who had a great solo career. He worked closely with his brothers (particularly Barry) in writing, producing, and doing background on many of Andy's songs! Andy also passed. --------------------- I’m not sure if you’ve reacted to any of these, but here’s a list with my interpretation of what genre I think they fall under: Too Much Heaven (R&B) you reacted to this already; How Deep Is Your Love (R&B Ballard) You reacted to this already; Staying Alive (disco) You reacted to this. Night Fever (disco) You Should Be Dancing (R&B or disco) Fanny be tender with my love (R&B) Jive Talking (R&B) Nights on Broadway (R&B/Funk) Tragedy (Techno? Pop) More than a woman (Disco/R&B) Love you inside out (Funk/pop) To love somebody (R&B) Massachusetts (pop/country) Wind of Change (funk/r&b), live 1975 from the Midnight Special) Alone (pop) Love So Right (R&B) Words (pop, 1979 Spirits Tour) Lonely Days (pop) You Win Again (pop) Run to Me (pop) How Can you mend a broken heart (R&B) Kiss of Life (rock) One (pop) Wedding Day (pop) Rest Your Love on Me Awhile (country) Bodyguard (R&B) For Whom the Bell Tolls (pop) Blue Island - live (pop) Our Love, Don't Throw it all away-Bee Gee's or Andy's version (pop) Secret Love (pop) This is Where I Came in (live) (pop) The 1989 One for all tour medley (excellent vocals & some humor) If you want to see them (the Bee Gees) and how they work in the studio try: (A) the making of their song "Tragedy" from 1979 (B) The making of the song "Just in Case" (C) The making of the video "This is Where I Came in" from their last cd in 2001 Some that only the avid Bee Gee fans might know that you might want to react to: My Lover’s Prayer (pop ballard) Letting Go (pop ballard) Subway (R&B) You Stepped Into My life (Funk/r&b) Children of the World (pop) Search, Find (pop or R&B) Songs written by Barry Gibb (that other artists sung) -- alone or with his brothers (Robin & Maurice Gibb): If I Can't Have You (Yvonne Elliman) Woman in Love ( Barbra Streisand). In fact, The Bee Gees wrote every song on her Guilty CD, and Barry did 2 duets with her. And he did most of the background vocals on a lot of the songs. Islands in the Stream (Kenny Rogers & Dolly Partons). In fact, The Bee Gees wrote all the songs on Kenny's "Eyes that See in the Dark" CD with Barry doing a lot of background vocals. Heartbreaker (Deion Warwick). In fact, The Bee Gees wrote every song on this CD too. The Bee Gees also did the Background vocals. Chain Reaction (Diana Ross) and yes, The Bee Gees wrote all the songs on this CD too. Barry also did the background vocals. Immortality (Celine Dion) The Bee Gees also sung background. The live 1997 from Vegas is excellent! More Than a Woman (Tavares) Love Me (Yvonne Elliman) Come on Over (Olivia Newton John) Emotions (Samantha Sang, with a lot of background vocals with Barry). Destiny's Child also recorded it. Grease--from the movie (Frankie Valli) Heart Beating in Time (Leo Sayer) Let me wake up in your arms (Lulu), who use to be married to Maurice Gibb A lot of Andy Gibb songs (Shadow Dancing, Everlasting Love, Love is Thicker than Water, Our Love, Don't Throw It Away; Desire;)
