  • I hope you enjoy my retro black and white version of this iconic song from the 60's sung by the Righteous Brothers. This is my take on it and I have transcribed my version and sheet music is available to purchase at www.sheetmusicdirect.com/en-U...
    I chose not to use any additional video clips because I had enough to do to put this together! Happy Valentine's Day all you lovebirds out there!
    In 1954, Alex North was contracted to compose the score for the prison film Unchained (released in 1955). North had a melody he had written in the 1930s and composed and recorded the score when was asked to write a song based upon the movie's theme. North asked Hy Zaret to write the lyrics. After first refusing, Zaret and North together wrote "Unchained Melody."[Zaret refused the producer's request to include the word "unchained" in his lyrics. The song eventually became known as the "Unchained Melody" even though the song does not actually include the word "unchained". Instead, Zaret chose to focus on someone who pines for a lover he has not seen in a "long, lonely time". The film centered on a man who contemplates either escaping from prison to live life on the run or completing his sentence and returning to his wife and family. The song has an unusual harmonic device as the bridge ends on the tonic chord rather than the more usual dominant chord.
    One of the most recorded songs of the 20th century, most notably by the Righteous Brothers in 1965.[3] According to the song's publishing administrator, over 1,500 recordings of "Unchained Melody" have been made by more than 670 artists, in multiple languages.
    The Righteous Brothers recording achieved a second round of great popularity when featured in the film Ghost in 1990. In 2004, it was number 27 on AFI's 100 Years...100 Songs survey of top tunes in American cinema. source; Wikipedia

    I SO admire your piano talent dear Donna. It is heavenly to hear this beautiful song played as an instrumental, normally we hear it with the lyrics. I love to sing this as I think you know! This really was sublime Donna, so so lovingly performed with the tenderness that the song needs. A great big WELL DONE my friend. This was awesome, and I loved your video in black and white -somehow it made it even more special. THANK YOU ❣❣
