Just thought I'd play around with it since Arnel was singing it a while back and it is a beautiful song. Hope ya like it.

Arnel does a good job on that song, but he can't touch John Farnham's original. Of course, hardly anyone can...
Just curious, did you try and copy Arnel or did you go back to the LRB original that Farnham did while he was with the band?

Sorry Bobby - I love your singing as usual - good job, but I just don't like that song.

I'm still waiting for Unchained Melody :wink:

I do like how Bobby didn't do a straight up cover, but it did seem that song was tad slower than it already is.

I was inspired by John's original version more than what Arnel did. I love Arnel's voice, but he seems to copy exactly what he has heard. I tried to mix it up and put some harmony in and did the ending a little differently.

Thank you Gunbot, and you're right, it is a little slower. That bothered me too once it was finished, but it was too late. LOL

Man, I've got "Unchained Melody" recorded and did a few different things with it, but I'm almost afraid to post it. I need to run through it again and listen a little more carefully, then I'll post it.

I do love that song.
