Unchained Melody

Unchained Melody Lyrics & Chords

“Unchained Melody” is a popular song with music by Alex North and lyrics by Hy Zaret. It is one of the most recorded songs of the 20th century, by some counts having spawned over 500 versions in hundreds of different languages.¹

It reached #1 in the UK, becoming the UK’s top selling single of 1990; it also later reached #1 in Australia, staying at number-one for seven weeks through November 1990 and into January 1991.

On June 21, 1977, just six weeks before his death, Elvis Presley performed “Unchained Melody” for what would be his last television appearance, “Elvis In Concert.” However, the recording that was ultimately released as a single and included on the “Moody Blue” album (the last released while he was alive) was from an earlier appearance at Ann Arbor, Michigan, featuring him on piano, as it was invariably the case when Presley sang the song in concert.

My favorite version of this song is from the band Air Supply performed by Graham Russel and Russel Hitchcock.

Take Care,
Keep the faith always,
Peace be with you,
God Bless You All….

Thank you so much Sai for your wonderful comments.

Yes I will take care of the backing track, I am fairly new to recording songs so learning on the fly. Do let me know if you can suggest a specific software which is good for recording?

I am now on to listen to some of your songs :-)

Take Care,
Keep the faith always,
God Bless You….

Thank you so much Rashmi Di for your compliment.:-)

I will call you Rashmi Di like how people call Lata Mangeshkar as Lata Di with due reverence. Getting a compliment from you has made my soul happy and I am in a BLISSFUL state.

I am also in the process of upgrading my recording gear and will also look forward to valuable inputs and suggestions from you and our friends, brothers and sisters of our Muziboo family to improve the quality of recording.

Now my soul moves on to listen to your song Chaandu Thotille and one thing I already know is that it is going to touch my heart and soul with your voice being part of the rendition.

Take Care divine Rashmi’Di,
Keep the faith always,
God Bless You….
