    People in this era didn't need tricks to sound good because they had real talent and could really sing.

    That's because you couldn't manufacture a singer back then. You could either sing or you couldn't. Today you can literally take somebody that can't sing at all and make them sound flawless. Today they start from somebody that has the look or the vibe they want and worry about creating the voice in the studio later.

    Still melting hearts 60 years later. Bobby was a counter tenor. One of the rarest vocal ranges. He was known to have stage fright. He was nervous that night because not only was his mother in the audience seeing him perform on stage for the first time, but he also had a cold. This was one of the greatest live performances ever. This will always be Bobby's song.

    Blue eyed soul was their style of music, and Bobby's Mama was in the audience to hear him sing professionally for the first time. He had a cold and there was some question if he would be able to hit the high notes, but he knocked it outta the park like a Louisville Slugger!

    He did NOT HAVE A COLD. Otherwise he would not have reached his many fluctuations with such controlled held notes to breath in or how about the two octaves he climbed up to sing effortlessly. He also wanted to make his Mama in the audience proud! And the biting his lip was congratulating to himself that he sang the song well in his mother's presence!!!!

    There was no question about hitting the last notes. He had rehearsed with the orchestra beforehand. He wouldn't have attempted it if there was a question about doing it. His mother is behind him. She's the lady in the blue dress and fur stole. His dad is sitting next to her. Yes, he did have a cold. Maybe, it wasn't full blown at that point, but he still had it. You can hear it in his voice, when speaking and singing.

    I was born in 1959 so I grew up in the 60’s and 70’s. The music that came out during that period was something else. This song would be the type you would have heard just around the time the Beatles came out big. That was something hearing all the good music from that era, like this song, when it was brand new.

    Covered by more than 670 artists to tell you how popular this song is. But this is the gold standard by the late great Bobby Hatfield. No autotune, just pure talent and after almost 60 years it sounds great. If you have seen the movie GHOST you would remember the scene with Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore. It’s iconic. Other great songs by them are You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling, which was the most played song in the 20th Century. Also a number one hit “Soul and Inspiration”. Also They’re tribute song to stars that have passed away “Rock And Roll Heaven”. You seem to be appreciates great music. Thank you again.

    This is the incomparable Counter Tenor voice of the late great Bobby Hatfield of the Righteous Brothers. Done live (59) year's ago back in 1965 on the NBC Andy Williams Show. This song written for the Prison Movie title "Unchained" back in (1955). Was composed by multi award winning music composer Alex North with Lyrics by Hy Zaret. This musical arrangement by the NBC Studio Orchestra and the singing of Bobby Hatfield made this version of "Unchained Melody" the quintessential version of them all. And ever since then this is the version every orchestra and every singer has used. It has become the standard ever since. This performance by the NBC Studio Orchestra of the Andy Williams Show and the singing of Bobby Hatfield. Has become by many as the greatest (live)performance in television history. No Auto Tune back in 1965.
