What is the best version of Unchained Melody? I know a few & favour The Righteous Brothers.

Listen to the passion in this LIVE Elvis version. I really think it's the best!!

It was spliced into the recent Elvis movie, but they swear it's the real Elvis, from Rapid City, South Dakota, on June 21, 1977, about two months before his death.

I started the video after the intro, but you can drag back to the beginning and hear the intro.

It's hard to choose a favorite vocal. I liked several long before the Righteous Bros. version. My favorite instrumental is the piano version by Floyd Cramer. My wife and I wore out that record by dancing to it when we were dating.

The Righteous Brothers' version is the only version I know of from having seen the 1990 film, Ghost.
INKA Gold does a pan flute/ guitar version. There are a number of versions.

My favorite was Al Hibbler, the version my father used to play on our stereo.

@bijouxbroussard I agree. That version was the one that made me love the song.
