bluesboy Posted April 22, 2004 Report Share Posted April 22, 2004 Hi, It was written by Alex North for the 1955 prison film called "Unchained" , but I can't find a listing of the soundtrack to see who sang it. Hope this helps... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Don Posted April 22, 2004 Report Share Posted April 22, 2004 I always believed the song was originally done by Al Hibbler, who had the original hit with it in 1955. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon8528 Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 Ha. I bet that no one here knew that in Les Baxter's version of "Unchained Melody", there are lyrics which say: "unchain me, unchain me." This is supposedly where the name: "Unchained Melody" came about: "UNCHAINed MElody". Just wanted to let you guys know. Brandon8528 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
