It's Righteous, Brothers!
That's what the El Toro Marine yelled out
when he heard Bill and Bobby sing and shout
their soulful blue-eyed hearts
so many songs ago.
And now,
we have lost
part of
"That Lovin Feelin."
And with this loss,
a soulful piece of musical history
has stepped into the clouds
to perform with so many others.
Goodby Bobby Hatfield,
I will be listening for your
sweet tenor voice
in the falling snow.


****Bobby Hatfield****
The Righteous Brothers
RIP, Nov 5, 2003

A beautiful tribute, Kacy.  Personally, as well as collectively, it seems there are just too many people standing in line or heading upstairs just now.  For me, the heavens are overflowing....

Thank you for this.

(big hugggsssssssss) It was so very sad to hear of Bobby Hatfield's passing, dearest friend, who could ever forget "Unchained Melody" in particular, which is one of my most played songs on my jukebox! (sad sigh) No matter what, hey'll still forever be brothers...righteous brothers, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kacy, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Wow this brought back lots of memories. He's in a different choir now...singing, and not getting tired.
Love,

But what did they give us to remember?, a legacy to try to uphold.  A lovely tribute to a memory to keep..very well done, Kacy, very gentle smile
