Unchain My Heart
Here we have another music genius I had not posted anything about yet, the one and only Ray Charles. It is very hard to choose only one song, as I love all of them, even when he covers another artist’s material. In a way, he makes every tune special with his personal and original way of singing and piano playing. Ah, well, I’ve decided to post Unchain My Heart, one of his most popular hits.
If you like movies, I suggest you see Ray, the biopic about Ray Charles’ life, with an amazing Jamie Foxx playing the main role. His performance is simply uncanny, he could not be any closer to Ray Charles as a young man. If you don’t believe me, you can check out some interviews with the real Ray on YouTube and judge for yourself.
As usual, you can play the song below or click here to access a listening comprehension exercise.
