Photographer's Note

the melody of Ghost

This article is about the song. For the compilation album by LeAnn Rimes, see Unchained Melody: The Early Years.
"Unchained Melody" is a 1955 song with music by Alex North and lyrics by Hy Zaret. It has since become one of the most recorded songs of the 20th century, by some estimates having spawned over 500 versions in hundreds of different languages.Hundreds of other recordings followed. However, it was the July 1965 version by The Righteous Brothers that became a jukebox standard for the late 20th century, achieving a second round of great popularity when it was featured in the 1990 blockbuster film Ghost.

Howdy Nil,

Intriguing Istanbul scene, the supernatural pianist's shadow dominating, while the female plays the piano to the left.
The Righteous Brother's version of "Unchained Melody" is my favorite, and I had the pleasure to see them perform in person a few times in my youth while dating females.

Thanks for sharing,
Cheers,
Ray

A very gothic shot. I imagine a doom & dark laden version of the song, ending in murder.

So...yes, I like it. :)

Hi Nil,
This is a very unusual and very cool shot, the grain in the black and white effect works beautifully and creates a very supernatural scene. The shadow really is the star of the show in this. Great shot, thanks for sharing.
Best wishes
Noel
