This song was recorded in 1955, but it remains one of the most iconic songs ever made

Some songs never lose their popularity no matter how much time passes by and are simply meant to last forever. One such tune is Unchained Melody. Not many know that the song was first written for the film Unchained, which is a story about a prisoner who is torn between two choices; to finish his sentence or to escape prison and see his family.

With the music written by Alex North and the lyrics by Hy Zaret, Unchained Melody is one of the most recorded songs of the 20th century, most notably by The Righteous Brothers.

It regained its popularity after it was featured in the film Ghost in 1990. The scene in which Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore make pottery together while the song is on in the background is considered iconic by many.
