Unchained Melody was written in 1955 by Hy Zaret and put to music created by Alex North. After it was rerecorded in 1965, Unchained Melody quickly became among the most recorded songs written in the 20th century.
Unchained Melody was not written by William Stirrat who was an impostor of and NOT Hy Zaret and had nothing to do with writing Unchained Melody. This is apparently a blatant hoax and has been discredited. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Stirrat. Hy Zaret was/is Hy Zaret.
