This song was recorded in 1955, today it is considered as one of the best songs ever! Watch the video in the first comment…When Righteous Brothers covered it a decade later? WOW!

This song, recorded in 1955, is now celebrated as one of the greatest songs of all time.

Some songs remain timeless, holding onto their popularity across generations.  Unchained Melody is a prime example. Few realize that it was initially created for the movie Unchained, a story about a prisoner torn between serving out his sentence or escaping to reunite with his family.

With music composed by Alex North and lyrics by Hy Zaret, Unchained Melody became one of the most recorded tracks of the 20th century, most famously performed by The Righteous Brothers.

Its fame saw a resurgence in 1990 when it played during an iconic scene in the movie Ghost, where Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore share a memorable pottery-making moment to its haunting melody.
