Ghost is on TV. In honour of the greatest love song ever written. Disagree? Post a better one

On a rainy day in Canada, waiting for Josh Donaldsons return to Toronto tonight. Unchained Melody of course, best sung by the Righteous Brothers.

The history of the song is neat. Was originally written as an instrumental long ago. Lyrics written much later. Righteous Brothers version immortalized by the movie.

Back when Hollywood had real power to inspire.

I really like the aforementioned but I'm torn. I like this one also!

The fact is the above song was taken from the following classical piece: (Base Baritone)

(Or Tenor)

Gosh. It's hard to post a better one that unchained Melody. Hm. There's some in the ball park, I suppose.

 

[Natural Citizen]

Hey, Swayze had a good one that he wrote and performed.

I dunno, it might be higher on my list than Unchained Melody.
