There have been many beautiful songs recorded over the years. These are the songs that fill our hearts and when we need them the most, we sing them either in our minds or out loud.
One of the songs that is known by people around the world and is considered to be one of the most beautiful of all time is Unchained Melody. Originally, it was performed by Todd Duncan but it has been covered by hundreds of artists in many different languages since that time.
Although Todd Duncan was originally responsible for recording the song, it was the Righteous Brothers who really brought it to life in 1965. Their rendition is often considered to be the one to beat and very few people have come close.
When you listen to the song and its powerful notes, it really touches at your heart for all the right reasons. Even today, when it was posted on YouTube decades after the song was recorded, it has reached more than 76 million views.
Elvis Pressley also recorded Unchained Melody when he performed it live. He did a great job, but it is the Righteous Brothers who really are well known for the music. You can hear them singing it here:
