It was so odd to have young kids singing 'Lovin' Feelin'' because they knew it from 'Top Gun.' Bill Medley feelingunkid Change image and share on social
The reason I still love performing is that people my age, a little younger and a little older, show up to relive that thing that made them so happy all those years ago. And as long as they show up, I'll keep on keepin' on till I keel over. Bill Medley ageagohappy share on social
It sounds odd, but I was a singer and started writing songs, and I didn't have anything in mind. Maybe it crossed my mind that it would be cool to have a hit record and a career, but that was so out of reach that I don't think I thought about it that much.

I think 'Lovin' Feelin'' was probably one of the most - probably in '64 and '65, one of the more dramatic love songs for these kids to grab hold of. I mean, they had been listening to, you know, kind of cute songs, and 'Lovin' Feelin'' was just a strong, powerful song. Bill Medley cutedramaticfeelin share on social
I'm kind of a nervous guy. I know on television I look like I'm half asleep, but inside I'm going about 100 miles an hour. Bill Medley asleepguyhalf Change image and share on social
Passion: It's what separates a singer from an entertainer. I hope I have passion for my music, my family, and my friends until they start shoveling dirt on my face. Bill Medley dirtentertainerface Change image and share on social
The Righteous Brothers got so heavy because of the dramatic hit records like 'Lovin' Feelin.' Bobby and I just felt like we were a couple of Orange County guys who were just having a great time singing rock n' roll, and then, boy, it became something else.

Little Richard was it for me, man. Later, it was Ray Charles and Bobby 'Blue' Bland, B.B. King. Bill Medley blandbluebobby Change image and share on social
We were so busy that right before we recorded the follow-up single to 'Lovin' Feelin'' I had a nervous breakdown. I just folded. I had to stay in bed for a couple of months and rest. Bill Medley bedbreakdownbusy Change image and share on social
I had fans, and the industry and everybody saying, 'Keep the Righteous Brothers going; keep the music alive,' and I really didn't want to do that. I had sung with a couple of guys who would supposedly be really good Bobby Hatfields, and I thought, 'Oh geez, it's really anti-climatic.' Bill Medley aliveantibobby share on social
