    Grandma here. I was a teen when this song came out. I used to listen to them on the radio. And yes black and white kids listened to them. Actually in the 60’s we all listened to all the music. It wasn’t white music or black music. It was just our music

    I'm 75, and back then we didn't know what our favorite singers looked like until we saw them live on television, and we didn't care; we just loved our music. The Righteous Brothers were a really big hit with everyone, and their song Unchained Melody is a classic still loved very much now, sixty years later.

      Facts. BUT… These shows ALWAYS had the artist pantomime over the album cuts. People wanted to hear what they heard on the record and no producer who made it to that level would risk mistakes.
      The BBC learned the hard way what happens when you let an artist perform LIVE on Live TV. Jimi Hendrix taught those fools you don’t put restrictions on an artist with actual talent. The Lulu Show. 1968. Jimi fixed some attitudes that night.

      Definitely blue-eyed soul. I also heard of hall and Oates referred to as "blue-eyed soul," as well. They have many many top 10 Hits under their belt if you wanna check those out. I've heard that this particular song is the most requested song in all of the 20th century on radio apparently. something like that. I'm sure the top gun appearance of this song probably brought it even a renewed fame in the 80s.

    They were known as Blued-eyed soul and I grew up with them thinking they were black singers until I saw them the first time on TV and was shocked. They got their name when singing in a club and after a performance some black marines were there, and they hollered out "that's righteous brothers" and they decided to keep the name.

    I was around in 1964 when they sang this. This was the most played song on radio an tv in the 20th Century. Google it if you don’t believe me. Many hit songs together and as soloists. You need to hear Unchained Melody which Bobby Hatfield sang by himself. You want to hear quality. Also there #1 hit Soul and Inspiration. After 60 years these are still played today. Sadly Bobby Hatfield left us in 2003. Enjoy these classics young man.

That's when we found out that Soul has no color.

    Blue Eyed Soul is how I have heard it explained as. I was 16 when this was recorded and the girls of the day went crazy over their sound. You have got to remember that this is live, no electronics, no auto tune, just plain talent. Many singers of that era made classics that many still sing word for word today. Unchained Melody was and is the most copied song in history and Bobby singing it solo just killed it. Go back into the 60's charts and see the talent we had back then and you will be surpised.

Listen to "Koko Joe", "My Babe", "B-Flat Blues", "Little Latin Lupe Lu", "Try to Find Another Man". I cannot understand why reactors don't pull up those early hits and REALLY enjoy the greatness of the Righteous Brothers.

    Devante, welcome to the world of "Blue Eyed Soul". They are the reason that phrase was coined. And don't worry about thinking they were black when they started singing and you couldn't see their faces. They sing with such soul that many people think that. I too have been misguided by my ears before. Dobie Gray was a black singer that I didn't know was black until I saw a video. If you get a chance check out his song "Drift Away". It was a classic when I was growing up and I never knew he was black. I appreciate his music even more now. But I loved your honest reaction to this music video. 👍👍

They each had solos in their performances. "Unchained Melody" is Bobby Hatfield's. This is a live TV performance. No auto tunes. No second takes. Check out "You'll Never Walk Alone" and "Sour and Inspiration". Bobby Hatfield has a five octave range. The Righteous Brothers were referred to a "Blue-eyed Soul".

    Back in the day, we listened to music, good music, great music, funny music. Big Band tunes and the very best singers that ever walked the planet.
    I was born in '55, when the King of Rock 'n Roll was singing about houndogs and shaking his stuff in the jailhouse. I became "aware" when I heard Roy Orbison on a 9-volt transister radio and the world exploded like nuclear skyrocket when The Beatles headlined on Ed Sullivan and the rest is history.
    None of us cared what color the singer's skin was, it was their sound and their character onstage. Chuck Barry and Louis Armstrong, Nat "King" Cole and Aretha Franklin, but then Ol' Blue Eyes was a tough act to follow, so was The Fifth Dimension and The Temptations; later on we were diggin' us some Carlos Santana.
    And everyone who was hip was also way cool. We did that little thing called Woodstock;) days of music, brotherhood and love ... and Jimmy Hendrix's Star Spangled Banner.
    I'm pushing 70 now, but I'm glad that I was born into possibly the greatest time to ever live through.
    Sorry for the ramble, sometimes I just get going ...

    “Abraham Lincoln” is Bill Medley. He e is joined by Bobby Hatfield who at the ending takes the song where no other singer could. I’ll bet he puts a smile on your face!

    Back in those days, music had meaning...songs told a story. And the talent was astronomical. Everything from rock and roll, to Motown, major hits every week. I think it's great that young people are interested in music from that era.

    This was their first #1 hit but they were one of the top groups of the sixties, with 22 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 and at one point three albums in the top twenty simultaneously. Their inspiration was R&B which in those days was all 'coloured music', so plenty of people thought they were black when they first heard them. For their first three years they sang raucous rock and roll and were really popular in clubs and dances on the west coast, but in 1964 Phil Specter became their producer and gave them ballads like this one. Bill's bass baritone voice mixed with Bobby's high tenor with a stunning harmony that no group before or since has duplicated, but individually they had powerful voices as soloists. I hope you review more of their work... don't forget their first hit 'Little Latin Lupe Lu' written and produced by Bill. 😊ua-cam.com/video/JhLJk08Ectc/v-deo.html

    Definitely check out Bobby Hatfield’s “Unchained Melody” and the Righteous Brothers’ “Soul and Inspiration” and “You’ll Never Walk Alone” on the Ed Sullivan Show, “Just Once In My Life”. Their debut song was “Little Latin Lupe Lu”. If you want to hear soul, listen to Bill Medley’s “I Just Want To Make Love to You” and Bobbie’s “Summertime”. Bobby had a 4 or 5 octave voice. They could sing anything!

      Agree to all of @hkbit3 suggestions of the next songs to listen to by the incredible Righteous Brothers. Loved your reaction & I subscribed. You were on point with all of your feelings. Add the record of "Ebbtide" sung solo by Bobby Hatfield to your listening/reaction list. The emotions they put into each song is amazing & their music is timeless. Sadly Bobby has been gone for 20 years but the baritone Bill Medley at age 83 is still performing with a new partner. I saw them last year in CA & saw the original brothers perform in IN about 1966. All these years and I still love their music.

    They were called blue eyed soul. Women of every colour were in love with these two. The most requested and played song of the 20th Century. Listen to Bobby singing Unchained Melody. The version that starts with the Andy Williams show. Then You’ll Never walk alone. For a surprise ending.
    This was 28 years before you.

    They were known as the first "blue-eyed soul" singers. Their name came from a black Marine who called out their singing was righteous after hearing them. Bill is the tall one with the deep voice. Bobby has the high voice. Watch Bobby's solo on the Andy Williams show. A phenomenal live performance. ua-cam.com/video/7G5fgTiPfVI/v-deo.html. Enjoy!
