This is literally the greatest live performance of all time.
IT TRULY IS!!!!!!
Elvis couldn't touch this.
It was Bobby, an orchestra, and a microphone. He was a master vocalist.
That was how the original sounded. No help. No autotune. Just talent.
Not the original, just the best! This was written for a prison movie in the mid-50's and covered by at least a dozen singers before this. But Bobby totally killed it.
This live version is better than the released LP version.....
Hundreds of singers have recorded this song. NOBODY does it like Bobby Hatfield. This song was used in the movie "Ghost". The Righteous Brothers were 25 at this time. No auto tunes. Live performance, no second takes and his parents were in the audience. This song was written for a 1955 movie called "Unchained". Check out "Ebb Tide". In 1965, and way before, singers actually had to have talent to make it in the music business. Check out "You've Lost That Loving Feeling", "You'll Never Walk Alone" and "Soul and Inspiration". For Big Band sound, check out Glenn Miller's "In The Mood", "Moonlight Melody" and "Sting of Pearls". Check out Connie Frances "Where The Boys Are". Louis Armstrong "It's A Wonderful World". Judy Garland "Over the Rainbow".
And he was just getting over a cold.
His voice is true and pure. No one can do this song like him. No one.
And no-one hearing this performance, by Bobby Hatfield alone, is being cheated!
I'm a full blown Angelina fan, but this performance by Bobby is the single greatest version ever.
It’s the Original version. All others are Covers of the song.
No, it isn't the original version. The song was written for a 1955 prison movie and was sung in the movie.@@stephaniegoddard9397
@@stephaniegoddard9397 : It's not the original. The original version was sung in the 1955 movie, "Unchained."
Andy Williams has one of the best voices ever - absolutely pitch perfect.
I love moon river, but its not Christmas with out him singing its the most wonderful time of fhe year,
He's hosting the show 😊.
except for Bobby Hatfield ?
Plus the bear that wanted cookies.
When Andy Williams at the end comments BEAUTIFUL.....He knew it was out of this world.
14:24 As someone else has already said the man in the pink was Andy williams. Andy Williams was a huge star for several decades and had his own variety show. He would often times have big stars on such as the Osmonds with Donny Osmond and the Jackson 5 with Michael Jackson and his brothers. Andy Williams has a beautiful voice of his own. You need to check out some of his music .
And Andy originally sang with his own brothers, before he went solo.
and Andy discovered the Osmond Brothers as well
@@mervincombs6640 Actually it was Andy's father who saw them and told Andy he better put them on.
For Mr Williams, start out with "Moon River," another song that was covered many times through the years.
@mervincombs6640 Wow! I didn't know that!
With all due respect to the many artists who have covered this song, including Angelina Jordan, you need not have bothered. Bobby Hatfield cannot be bettered.
Well said!
Or Elvis….
@@sabrinajosephs441 Not even close.
Austin Brown, from the a Cappella group Home Free, does an amazing job! by far, my favorite rendition!!
Exactly...it's the most covered song in history...and everybody who's done it after Bobby are still chasing far behind
Bobby owns this song. No one sang this better than he did. You need to respect that he had a cold. His mother was in the audience. He put his whole heart and soul into this song. I was 16 yrs old when I watched him sing this beautiful on the Andy Williams show in 1965. No auto tunes, just pure raw talent. RIP Bobby! ❤❤❤❤
I was 15 and was frozen in place when I first heard it. It remains my all time favorite song. THE DEFINITIVE version no matter who else sings it. This song belongs to Bobby Hatfield.
I don't care what music you listen to, this is the greatest Solo EVER sung by mankind! Just UNREAL!!😲😲😲
I would agree to that, much better than the LP version.
1965 - - live tv, no retakes, no do over, no auto tune. No pressure but his mom was in the front row, reportedly her first time hearing him sing publicly
Three other Righteous Brother songs where both sing are You've Lost That Loving Feeling, Soul and Inspiration and I Just Wanna Make Love To You. If you like their music they are must listen.
Also, honorable mention to "Rock & Roll Heaven"... lol
I agree with these recommendations but want to especially 2nd the Rock ' Roll Heaven !
Try also YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE its on UA-cam.....they sang it together on the Ed Sullivan show....will knock your socks off.
The BEST live performance ever - no auto tune, no dancers, no lip sync - just pure raw talent!!! His smile at the end is because his mom & wife were in audience!! He didn't want to go on that night cause he had a cold!!!! That is Andy Williams - who had a show for many years!!!
This song was originally released by other music artists in 1955. “Unchained Melody” had been around for ten years when Bobby Hatfield sang this song. The audience clapped early in the TV performance, because they were very familiar with the song.
The incomparable Counter Tenor voice of the late great Bobby Hatfield of the Righteous Brothers. Done (Live) 59 years ago in 1965 on the NBC Andy Williams Televisions Show. Unchained Melody was composed by multi award winning composer Alex North with Lyrics by Hy Zaret for the (1955) Prison Movie "Unchained." It was first sung by movie and stage actor and opera singer Todd Duncan for the 1955 movie. This performance by Bobby Hatfield and the NBC Studio Orchestra of the Andy Williams Show. Performed 10 years later. Became the quintessential version of them all. It has become the standard by which every orchestra and every singer has use ever since. This performance by Bobby Hatfield and the NBC Studio Orchestra has gone down as the greatest live performance in television history by many in the entertainment industry. Together they created magic that will endure for a lifetime. Brilliant!
He hit G5 sharp on the last note. Nearly A5.
@@DanMurdock-w5o The man could of sang opera. Thanks for your kind reply.
Bobby Hatfield OWNS this song. I really do not believe anyone can sing this song better than Bobby. This was LIVE before an audience with no electronic enhancements. It was an incredible unmatched performance. RIP Bobby - you're beyond fantastic.
A 24 year old Bobby Hatfield singing, with a cold, to his mom in the audience for the first time she was seeing him sing Live.
😭
I think it was his birthday also.
@Killermcknight i know im a little late. this is the perfect example of giving 110% and just pushing through ! and with mild case of the sniffles. And still that voice pitch control and the lungs ! Love the little smile / wink at the end that he did good . : )
And this, ladies and gentlemen, is the ultimate version of this song, never to be surpassed!!
Bobby owns this song . End of conversation
That’s Andy Williams in the bright pink 💜
Premier songster in the 1960s-1980s; a pop recording star; had his own TV musical variety show (this video is an excerpt from a 1965 show). The untitled song was composed for a 1955 prison movie titled "Unchained"; since the tune was so popular, and widely recognized, it was simply tagged "Unchained Melody." This live TV version is highly acclaimed as the best version EVER. The version heard in "Ghost" is part of a studio cut. The studio orchestra is very professional and performs maybe as flawlessly as Mr. Hatfield!
"Moon River" was a very famous song by Andy.
Can't get use to losing u. Loved him.
Please don’t feel “cheated” that you heard only one performer. It’s all that the song needed and no one has done it better.
Andy William's signature song was "Moon River".
No auto tune or fancy electric magic just 100% talent then add to the fact that Bobby had a bad cold at the time the performance was brilliantly perfect
It became a huge hit again in 1990 as a soundtrack of the box office movie, Ghost. Old movie also 😅
I saw a recentish interview with Bill Medley. He said the album was released because of the reaction to the song in Ghost. It earned a box full of platinum records. One for every country where it sold more than a million copies.
Back in those days love songs were derived from the heart, not from the groin. A man named Al Hibler made this song popular back in the late '50's. Then the song was revived by The Righteous Brothers.
You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling, was their biggest hit. Massive all over the world. Not just once but several times.
I don’t care to listen to anyone else’s version of this song. I don’t believe anyone could ever sing this song better than Bobby! This performance was beautifully perfect!
I was born in 1949 and remember this on the radio in the late 50's but to date I have yet to hear a better version than that done by the Righteous brothers.
You may have heard this song, but not like this.. This is one of the few live performances that is better than the studio version. The best (solo artist) live performance of all time.
I was born in 1964 the last year of the Baby Boomers. I found your channel looking for Righteous Brothers reactions. Elvis is my favorite Singer and the Bee gees my favorite group. I am so glad I grew up in the 60's and 70's and 80's. It was a Golden Era of Music. Andy Williams was a huge Star and was the one who introduced the Righteous Brothers.
There is Soul and my heart inspiration by Righteous Brothers. Summertime and a song about Heaven that I just discovered.
The man hosting is Andy Williams. Famous singer! A crooner!
Andy Williams was considered one of the greatest vocalist of alll time. This was 1965 and Bobby was 25 years old at the time. Many people consider this to be one of the greatest love songs ever written..
Bobby threw that "I really need your love" in for this iconic live performance. A masterpiece of a real voice. "You've Lost That Loving Feeling" was featured - sorta - in "Top Gun". You may recognize it when you hear it.
"Unchained Melody" was written for a chain gang movie.
What's so unbelievable about it is how effortlessly he's doing it. It's nothing for him.
Bobby was known to have quite a lot of stage fright. This performance was especially great because he was very nervous as his mother was in the audience. Word was he was a bit under the weather as well. No autotune, no special electronics, one take live only. You used the perfect word - Magical
I drove the stage tractor-trailer for the Righteous Brothers tour, they sang like that everything. That was over 40 years ago, and at the twilight of their career, but they could still sing and they'd been doing it for a living for over 30 years at that time.
They are original this is a great ballot.
This song was absolute hell to hear over the radio in Vietnam.
As far as the mic, they were supposed to bring out a different mic for the song but Bobby grabbed the one off the stand and started. Listen to Summertime by Bobby and I just want to make love to you by Bill with some input from Bobby and of course, You’ve Lost that Loving Feeling by both together, and I’ll never Walk Alone from the Ed Sullivan show.
I'm 62, born in 61. My parents' music was the American Graffiti music. My grandparents' music was WW2 big band music. I grew up loving it all.
One of the most beautiful songs of all time!
The man in the middle is one of the greatest singers of all time
One of my favorite songs...👍💖
You need your listen to Both of them in Soul and Inspiration and You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling. Just Beautiful
This was done live on the Andy Williams show. He was the one in pink at the start. His voice was amazing too!
The host of the show is Andy Williams, another wildly popular crooner back then.
I never tire of hearing this beautiful song.
Wow, I feel old! 😂 I was 2 when this came out. Now I'm 61, and still love it! ❤
For all its faults, UA-cam is an incredible blessing for preserving so much older music, films, TV shows and more, and making the works available for free, for new generations to enjoy and learn from. Let's never forget that!
Along those lines, I'd recommend you check out Stevie Ray Vaughan. He was one of the greatest guitarists of all time, yet never became as famous as, say, Eric Clapton or Jimmy Page. If not for UA-camrs posting and reacting to his work, he might have flown right under my radar, even though I was in college and constantly surrounded by music during his heyday in the 1980's. He passed in 1990, I believe, so years before the Internet became widespread. Yet his music lives on through the magic of UA-cam. ❤
The guy you asked about is Andy Williams this was his tv show. He was a very good singer in his own right one of his most famous hits was called "Moon river" he also done a few Andy Williams Christmas Christmas tv specials ✌️❤️
The greatest performance in history .
"Unchained Melody" was written for a little known prison movie "Unchained" (1955) and was sung by Todd Duncan, a well known opera singer. It's a love song a prisoner is singing to his loved one while he is in prison.
That was live on tv.
No filters.
No autotune.
Just incredible singing.
If you couldn’t really sing, you were never becoming a singer.
Bobby Hatfield's is a cover of this song, but widely considered the definitive version.
The guy in the middle is Andy Williams, who had this television show on NBC for ten years, and is one of the greatest and most successful singers of his generation.
This song was originally written for the movie, "Unchained." and was a hit when the movie came out. But although it was covered dozens of times before Bobby's version, Hatfield sang it best. And his is the one remembered forever.
Andy Williams show , he was singer in 60/70s. Very popular.
I was a mere teenager when I watched this performance on prime time television in 1965.
A lot of good music in those days. I might be a bit biased because this is the music I grew up listening to.
It is just like it was recorded
Righteous Brothers are iconic. No autotune, just pure raw talent. Check out You've Lost That Loving Felling. It has both of them in it. It will blow your mind! Love your reactions!
I was 16 when this song was sung by Bobby Hatfield of the Righteous Brothers. They did not write it and it was sung as part of a movie, (can't remember when) but no one has ever done it like Bobby, he was the best.
This is Bobby Hatfield of whom nobody can match….nobody
The song itself is from the 1955 prison movie "Unchained."
The host was Andy Williams and they were on his show. He was a great singer too.
Absolutely no one could sing this song like he did. He will forever own this song. Bobby Hatfield of the Righteous Bros. was incredible and so was Bill Medley with his deep voice on other songs they recorded.
Listen to Bring Back That Loving Feeling, to hear their amazing voices together. ❤
I agree no one but no one can sing this song lije Bobby, this is his song now & forever
An updated version was featured in the movie " Ghost"
This is the Andy Williams Show the guy in the middle is Andy Williams he is also a singer. This song was in the movie Ghost with Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore. Bobby Hatfield owns his song, no one sings it better than Bobby, is vocal range is magical, pure gold. Righteous Brothers forever.
You can react to their song you’ve lost that loving feeling where both of them singing.It was amazing n timeless.This song was featured in the movie top gun(the 80’s version,not the recent ones)😜😜
This is the best love song ever made .. Bobby Hatfield is singing it of the Righteous Brothers
Thanks, Kids.. yep, Bobby was amazing... totally live, no synths, no autotune, no screaming or straining.. just pure talent... appreciate your listen...
I was born in the 80s in philippines but i was introduced to music like elvis presley, beatles, tomjones, etc. There was no excuse you wont know they are in radio stations and your neighbors loud radio 😂
This song was very moving during the Vietnam War when we all had loved ones that we were praying would come back safely, hence the line "I'll be coming home, wait for me" was heartwrenching. My beloved "second brother" Pat and a neighbor Bill came home in flag draped coffins. God Rest their Souls 🙏
"Who is the guy in pink?"
My heart stopped 4 a moment.
I hear you two and agree….the 40, 50, and 60s is the time I’d like to go back to and see The Righteous Brothers live.
The host was Andy Williams who had his own television show in the 60s. I was born in 1956 and used to watch this show with my parents.
one of the most covered songs ever
This was totally live, not the least bit embellished, but purely Bobby Hatfield’s incredible voice. You’d probably appreciate it more if you played it all the way through.
👍🏻
It was actually from a 1950s movie "Unchained" - oddly enough a prison movie. Most people know it from the movie Ghost, Demi Moore making pottery, etc. BTW, I consider this the greatest live performance by a singer ever. Oh, and that is Andy Williams on his TV variety show. He was very popular in the 60's.
This song is from a 1955 movie called “Unchained” it was a prison movie, the song is sung from the perspective of the guy in prison longing for his wife, he is hoping she will be there when he gets out. After Bobby Hatfield sang this song it became his and his alone until the end of time
If you want to hear a great song from the two brothers look on you tube YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE on the Ed Sullivan show....another treat....
If you want to her both sing l suggest the most played song" You Lost That Lovjng Feeling. Unchained Melody was sung here by the late Bobby Hatfield. The other guy is Bill Medley.
Wow, so glad you are going back to a time when some of the greatest songs were written and featured some amazing vocalists. Keep these songs coming and I'll keep watching you guys. How do we get a request to you? Keep up the great reactions!
Thank you! You can just make a request in the comment section 🙂 We can’t guarantee every single request, because we cover so many artists, and each one gets dozens of requests, but we try to get to as many as we possibly can! If a song is requested by a lot of different people, that helps get it on the list quicker also. We appreciate your support!
@@Killermcknight Thanks for responding. You guys are amazing! Keep it up. Music makes us all feel a lot better especially in a world full of stress> God bless you both!
Thank you. Love his voice
Like your reaction!
Thank you, glad to hear that! ♥️
This song was in the Movie “Ghost”
Ghost, starring Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore and Woopi Goldberg
This song was written in 1955 for a low budget prison movie called “Unchained”. This might help you to understand the lyrics.
O melhor interprete desta musica ate hoje
This song is also well known for its use in the 1990 movie "Ghost".
But, this is better than the studio version used in the movie. Here, Bobby hits notes at the end that are unreal.
Please listen to Lucy Thomas, her version . She recently had her first concert, and two more coming. She's from England, she's a beautiful singer, has 5 CDs, and was on the voice kids at age 13 in England. So many wonderful covers she's done. Ty
Tom Jones, 1967, I'll never fall in love again. One of the best songs.
There will never be another duo like them again! They are the only version! It’s only Bobby on this one. 😎❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I was born in 52. I could be your great grandfather!
They’re great together! Haha hey… I’m not sure about GREAT grandfather…. My grandfather was born in 47. So maybe just grandfather 😋
Noone does this song like they do, nobody does justice to this song they that do, nobody can ever top the rendition of these young men.
He owns that song! Rip Bobby
Andy Williams is the man in pink
The guy in pink is Andy williams react ti him his big hit was moon river, you can hear the brother with deep voice sing you lost that loving feeling
Why, your just babies! I served my first combat tour in Vietnam in 1965! Good reaction.

Love it! Thank you very much for your service 🙏🏻♥️
Thank you for your service.
Thank you for your service Good Sir!🙏🙏❤️🇺🇲🐍
Great reaction! IMO, one of the best live performances ever!
Need to check out ‘You’ve Lost that Loving Feeling’ live where both are singing but Bill has the lead. And if you want to go back further, Andy Williams, the host of the show that interviewed them, has done Moon River beautifully and it was my Grandma’s favorite
