Hi Jasmine, We love your "old school soul" and we love the way in which you have connected with The Righteous Brother's music too!!! Please keep up the good work because we are here for it!!! Sincerely, CR SoundDoctor

I like the way you stop the song and react to it. The lady singing in the middle is Darline Love who had her own career and was in a relationship with Bill.

I just stumble onto this and must say, I enjoy your love and passion for music that moves you. Good luck to you. I grew up about 100 miles south of Seattle. In 1964 the Righteous Brothers played in Seattle. I was 15, my first love was 14. We had a friend give us tickets to the Brothers, knowing they were our favorite group/duo. You know how hormones rage in 14-15 year old bodies. We would slow dance for hours to Unchained Melody, for us the greatest love song ever. Anyway, we went to the show and I felt I was in heaven, with my beautiful girl, listening to beautiful, loving, soulful music. When we were leaving, we were looking for a restroom and somehow ended up backstage. We came around a corner and my girlfriend, all 4"11" and 90 pounds, ran right into Bill Medley, and was knocked down. He told us over and over, how sorry he was, how he should have been paying more attention. He had us sit backstage till he was sure she was alright. He even got Bobby to come and meet us. Of course, we were star struck. He was such a gentleman. We finally had to go or we would miss our ride. But he had their manage get our names so he could check back later to see that Julie, ( my girlfriend) was ok. Ten months later, a very "Righteous" thing happened. I got an envelope with signed pictures of Bill and Bobby, for both of us, and very beautiful tickets for their return concert in the summer of '65. The Righteous Brothers will always be my favorites. They sing of love and respect, and doing it in what was called at the time "Blue Eyed Soul. Good luck to you. I wish you the very best. I can see your love and respect for great music. Keep that going. Try Soul and Inspiration. The Brothers knock that one out of the park. Sorry to bore you with this lengthy post and again, good luck to you and never apologize for doing things your way. It will always serve you well.

I love how you love the Righteous Brothers. Another great reaction.

[miltonslocum]

Enjoyed your reaction Jasmine. So nice to see you enjoying all the old school music. The Righteous Brothers have a bunch of songs you'll love. Not sure how many you've reacted to but here's a few. Unchained Melody, Soul and Inspiration, Ebb Tide, Just Once in My Life, You'll Never Walk Alone, Go Ahead and Cry, and I Believe. There's so much great music from back then. Looking forward to more of your reactions.

Bill Medley here was "super clean" sporting facial hair with a "double-breasted suit" pocket hanky and an ascot scarf to boot!!! The blossoms looked beautiful in their coordinated outfits too!!! And just as you said Jasmine, they tore this song up & flat out nailed it!!!

This song written in 1968 by prolific and successful songwriting married duo Cynthia Mann and Barry Weil, was about interracial relationships. They wanted Bill to sing it, though they didn’t know at the time that he himself was in an interracial relationship with Darlene Love of the Blossoms (she’s the 3rd in the line of singers by the piano). Mann and Weil songwrote on many controversial and social justice issues of the 60’s.

The Brown Eyed Woman he was singing about was Darlene Love. She was then part of the Blossoms singing backup. You might recognize her playing Murtagh's wife in the Lethal Weapon movies. She and Bill Medley were lovers and almost married.

Bill is 82 now and still performing but with Bucky Heard Bobby Hatfield sadly passed in 2003. I believe the concert would be very good and worth seeing. Been a huge fan since 64. The Dynamic Duo never disappointed or singing alone!

[pharamathews]

I was waiting for you to react to this video. Another great reaction. I love this song & the emotion Bill puts into it as he keeps turning to glance towards Darlene Love (big smile with up hairdo to the far right). The song was brought to Bill Medley & he thought he'd have to convince Bill to record it but the fella got surprised & saw Darlene walk into the kitchen not knowing they were in a relationship at the time. He said to Bill "so I guess the answer is yes". 😊 She was in the studio when Bill recorded the song. Darlene & Bill parted ways..eventually became happily married others & are friends today. Darlene has a book that is more detailed. She is out there still performing like Bill & also inducted into the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame as the Righteous Brothers are. And I can relate to this song. I met my "Brown Eyed Man" back in 1966 when interracial relationships weren't common, he followed me to CA, married in 1968, 2 kids/2 grands & my family eventually all came around. He sadly passed away in 2010. Looking forward to your future Righteous Brothers reactions.

Hey Jasmine. My wife and I saw the TRB at the Anaheim Convention Center near Disneyland in 1967 and the Blossoms were there back up singers at that time. We also saw them again at the Melodyland Theater in Anaheim which was a theater in the round as the circular stage rotated around. Both time the were amazing. Later, around 1980, Bill had opened a dinner night club in Huntington Beach call Medley's and as in this video, it was also an intimate setting with a stage, dance floor, and white cloth dinner tables around. His performance also was outstanding and he put on a great show. Those were the greatest times for entertainment venues.

That is Bill many years after their early hit records

[bobmenzies]

Finally! Finally a reaction to “brown eyed woman”. This is one of the most hidden gems in music. Thank you so much for bringing light to it. I can feel what you’re feeling trust me. And of course the Blossoms don’t hold back either.. just outstanding. Cheers!

[marion_R]

Wow, great song! Never heard it before.
This might be at the he time he and Bobby separated ( 1968-1974).
I saw an old interview yesterday, where Bill told the story about Elvis Presley coming on stage while Bill was having a show. Very funny!

Thank you for this one!

[mrb]

I suggested this glad you dug it so much. The woman in the middle is Darlene Love great singer later went to the Crystals, very successful. This is one of my favorite songs ever. 🔥🔥🔥FIRE

[oldmusiclover]

Hi, Jasmine. I'm so happy you continue to enjoy the old school tunes. Keep digging into the Righteous Brothers, the Platters, Roy Orbison, the Drifters, and maybe Bobby Darin doing "If I Were A Carpenter" (LIVE). There's magic there. But don't forget the women. You must listen to Patsy Cline (LIVE) doing "Walking After Midnight" and "Crazy", and Tina Turner (LIVE) doing "OO POO PAH DOO" FROM 1964 and "A Fool In Love" from 1960, and Mama Cass Elliott (LIVE) doing "Dream A Little Dream of Me" and "Make Your Own Kind of Music" and "Words of Love", and Linda Ronstadt (LIVE) doing "Blue Bayou" written by Roy Orbison and "Poor Poor Pitiful Me" and "Tumbling Dice" and "When Will I Be Loved" and "Silver Threads and Golden Needles" and "You're No Good" and "Long Long Time" to name a few. You will not be disappointed. Prepare for great music.

J, you found a pot of gold when you found this fantastic song. I've been a huge fan since 1964 of the Righteous Brothers. Yr correct, a gift from God. Such a top tier singer. It was so great in the 60s waiting for their next recording to be released.You have great musical taste. Bill is still performing at age 84 but with Bucky Heard sadly Bobby Hatfield passed in 2003.
