Pay attention, cats and kittens, because I'm only going to go through this once. This is how Miss Melody Lane...
This will be included on the final exam. For additional research, I will refer you to Miss Melody Lane of Broadway, a 1950 comic series concerning a small town girl (livin' in a lonely world, naturally) who took the midnight train and found herself caught up in a nightmare world populated by the likes of Ed Sullivan, Eddie Cantor, and Guy Lombardo.
Brrrrr. It gives me chills just thinking about it.
Gene Vincent and The Blue Caps - Unchained Melody (from Gene Vincent and His Blue Caps, 1957) - Having endured the whole pottery fetish/Whoopi Goldberg/Righteous Brothers-fueled nightmare that was the Ghost phenomenon, I'm pretty confident in saying that I never need to ever hear this oft-covered romantic pop standard ever again.
If I did have to listen to the song again, however, this rockabilly-tinged interpretation would be the way to go.

she has excellent posture.
My favourite Unchained Melody has always been the Goon Show version. All the klanks and fertangs you ever wanted.
