Most of today's 'singers' have to have an army of dancers around them while they gyrate to laser light beams, smoke effects and strobe lights. This man used nothing but his incredible voice to sing one of the most beautiful love songs ever written. Those were the days of real performers who had honed their craft to the highest possible level. Sadly, we will never see the likes of Bobby Hatfield again, but 100 years from now people will still be listening to this song and his phenomenal voice.
@@user-iw2tv2bc2iyou’re 100% correct! But,I just don’t see the need to criticize the singers of today! Its not my style! Otis Redding(I’ve been loving u too long),Sam Cooke(a change is gonna come)etc,etc,amazing talents with voices like no others!But,I also know that it’s not necessary for me to criticize others!😊
59 years on, and this song is still going strong. One of the iconic songs from the 60’s, and will still be going strong in another 60 years time. Bobby smashed this out of the park when he sang this live. What a voice he had.❤❤❤❤❤ RIP Bobby. 💜 💜💜 I pray that the day I join you up there, that I have a chance to go to one of your concerts along with a few other legends of song & music.
This song brings tears to my heart Bobby was a fantastic voice this song was made for Bobby whom was sent home far too soon.Who else is still playing this song today with me 2024 R.I.P BOBBY😢😢😢😢😢😢💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
I just cry ...i cry because this song and his voice is so touching!!Thank you for posting this song!!Thank you Righteous Brothers. Theres not another love song that compares to this ,!! I also love "You've lost that loving feeling"
This is for real my high school girlfriend, which is my wife New York City thank God we both alive and my kids wish it older now is a great song never forget it
I’m 72 and I agree so much. I can’t believe how I got here . I’ve had an amazing life, not because I am wealthy , because I am blessed with a beautiful family. ❤️🙏🇺🇸
Nunca había oído esta canción. Buscando algo para la Memoria de Mi Mamita y encontré esta canción muy bonita. Me alegro y las palabras son muy buenas también. Y a buen tiempo. Gracias Señor Jesús por ser tan Bueno. Y si hoy lloro la ausencia de mi Mamita. Se que está con Jesús pero está durmiendo hasta que Nuestro Dios decida levantarla de nuevo. Muchas Memorias muy bonitas de Mi Mami y Mi Papi también. Le doy muchas Gracias a Dios Jesús por bendecirme con unos padres tan Buenos y trabajadores. Nunca nos faltó nada y todo lo hicieron con mucho Amor y Mucho Cariño. Siempre para nuestro bienestar. Siempre llenos de Amor para quien necesitará estaban dispuestos y disponibles a ayudar. Gracias Señor Jesús por ser tan BUENO MI DIOS. TE DOY TODA LA HONRA H LA GLORIA. ALELUYA ❤ALELUYA 🥰ALELUYA 🥰
I found my soul mate in 2015, he's my rock. I just don’t understand why the good Lord waited so long to bring us together. I've been diagnosed with stage 4 renal failure. I love you sweetheart. Don’t forget this
OMG this man has a voice like no other I've been a fan from way back as of to day I'm 80 yrs old and still crazy about the magnificent king of rock n roll ELVIS PRESLEY 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Most underrated tenor with great range. I love Roy Orbison & Elvis but they can not come close to this version. Long live the Righteous Brothers with that blue eye soul, my favorite duet.
@@elessartelcontar9415 Bill was joking... this was written as a solo and Bobby chose to sing it on the album they were recording. Bill produced the original studio version, played piano on it and also sang backup, although it's hard to identify his voice. There are no backup vocals in this version, of course.
So perfect and beautifully rendered. An ageless song that speaks to the heart and soul. Thank you Bobby and Bill. I hope you are singing way up there with the angels...
Bobby Hatfield is the most phenomenal singer, yet he doesn’t get a mention in the top 100 singers. He is absolutely amazing the feeling and passion going into this song is mind blowing. Then there’s Summertime, he’s such a talent that wasn’t recognised at the time. He will always be number 1 in my eyes
If referencing song Summertime (Gershwin) a song sung by thousands of different artists Billy Stewart's 1966 recording shows he definitely owns it. Haven't heard a better version to this day.
This beautiful song not only for football ,but for the whole of England , and all who's strugling with their daily life, you can't help not singing when you hear it, love if so much, ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This man sang this song with a passion and an intensity that no longer exists! Nobody ever sang this song like him, and in my opinion they never will! RIP Bobby.
@@SMoneyT It’s the area code for Miami, Florida. Mr. 305 is a nickname that the rapper Pitbull uses for himself. The commenter was likely joking. Comparing a rapper like Pitbull to a pure vocalist is laughable.
Who can dout??? When you haven't heard this before because it's never been heard. Thankfully the whole world now knows and recognise these voices. Thank you 'The Righteous Brothers'
Listening to Bobby Hatfield again (??? maybe for 1,000 time) now makes me forget all of the turmoil, the political BS, the anger, the misinformation, the Virus that devastates all of us, the mourning for lives lost.......... Yah---- He makes me forget, with a voice that will Not Ever be taken for granted, nor lost to those who listened.
The beautiful, soulful and talented Bobby Hatfield who knew how to touch hearts with his songs. I fall in love with him each time I hear this. RIP Bobby Lee Hatfield you were one of a kind and terribly missed.
This is his song forever! What a very haunting voice! Beautiful beyond compare. It was so perfect for Ghost' but should have given him the success which eluded him all his life. They do say you don't know what you've got till it's gone, and in my case it's sadly true. We in the UK didn't get to hear his pure genius and now he's gone. Loved the Righteous Brothers like everyone at the time, but Bobby deserved far more fame than ever came his way. Thank you for the music, Bobby, no-one even came close to your talent. X
Thank you for your kind words. As a side note, Bobby was originally from my home state of Wisconsin. He was born in the city of Beaver Dam but moved with his family to Anaheim CA when he was 4y/o. Nevertheless, we in Wisconsin are so proud of Bobby. Go Badgers!
This guy had a phenomenal voice and sung with his soul exposed. Such talent and compassion and dedication of performance. Wow! No vocalist will ever duplicate this sound . Spectacular! RIP Bobby Hatfield.
One of the greatest produced masterpieces of song and soul you'll ever hear.I was 10 years old when he sang this beautiful song. But I still love it 50 years later.
An angel from Heaven is the closest I can come to describing this man and his voice and this beautiful song of Love, which has never, nor ever will be , sung quite like Bobby. He gives meaning to the phrase "He made it his Own". Pure magic - Love and admire you forever ❤ 💖 💓
@@johncitizen3927 😏 so what …. Idiot comnent … 🙄 .. Elvis , Janis, Morrisson, James Brown, Hendryx, 🥵 can’t write more, infinite list … Until today it’s absolutely common all type of drugs kkkkk
No one will ever sing his song like he did so effortless just one of the best love songs ever done.Plus he was so handsome and that smile and blue eyes. He was the whole package. Let's not forget the other half Bill Melody is was really good also and handsome .Together the were a dynamic duo.
I have ALWAYS loved the Righteous Brothers. Bobby at his best singing. This song, Unchained Melody and his voice, delivery. There are no words. Except Love, Love, Love It, and Bobby Hatfield.
My husband and I saw the Righteous Bros way back then at the Theater in the Round in W Covina, Ca…he sang this song, it was heaven❣️❤️. Theater in the Round gone a long time ago..every time he sings this song it sounds the same..so effortless, a true talent.
Thank you RU-vid for such a wonderful trip down memory lane. The Righteous Brothers’ music you have put on RU-vid is outstanding and a wonderful tribute to both Bobby Hatfield and Bill Medley. I am enjoying listening to such beautiful music. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for putting such an array of music. As a team they were unreachable by any performer and as for Bill Medley, the respect he shows for his partner is remarkable . Thank you again.
They are indeed brothers.....born the same year.....broke up yet COULD NOT STAY apart. They walked this journey together as True SOUL MATES. I KNOW for SURE that this was NOT the first time and it WON'T BE THE LAST🙏🏽💚😇💯‼️‼️‼️
@@birgittacarlsson5645 Hi Birgitta, hope you and your family have enjoyed a good Christmas, I would say Elvis is second best.....I was brought up on Elvis so I think he was - and still is - probably the best singer and entertainer ever but the Righteous Brothers version has to be the best......no offence meant, stay safe and best wishes for the New Year
Love and Adored Bobby, I was a little teen but heard him song this song Unchained Melody, and fell in Love with him! Angel 👼 in Heaven, Hugs and Kisses, voice of a God! XOXO 😘
