Hey everyone! Here's my arrangement of Unchained Melody, made famous by the Righteous Brothers.
In 1954, North was contracted to write a song as a theme for the prison film Unchained and he asked lyricist Hy Zaret to write the lyrics which Zaret initially declined, saying he was too busy painting his house.[9][10] Zaret later reconsidered, but refused the producer’s request to include the word "unchained" in his lyrics.[11] The song eventually became known as the "Unchained Melody" even though the song does not actually include the word "unchained". Instead, Zaret chose to focus on someone who pines for a lover he has not seen in a "long, lonely time".[12] The 1955 film centered around a man who contemplates either escaping from prison to live life on the run or completing his sentence and returning to his wife and family.[12] The song has an unusual harmonic device as the bridge ends on the tonic chord rather than the more usual dominant chord. With Todd Duncan singing the vocals[1] the song was nominated for an Oscar in 1955, but the Best Song award went to the hit song "Love Is a Many-Splendored Thing".[12]
