Some songs arrive with strings of nostalgia and starlight sweeping you into a world where romance feels endless and time slips into soft focus. With Unchained Melody (Live), 23-year-old crooner Elliot James Reay turns a timeless classic into a cinematic daydream. Captured mid-tour while opening for Benson Boone, his rendition floats like a scene from an old film. Elliot blends vintage velvet with modern shimmer as he serenades packed theaters from Tampa to London. With retro-pop warmth shaped by icons like Roy Orbison and Elvis Presley, he slips into the melody with whimsy and grace, proving why audiences across generations lean in when he sings.

A fan-favorite moment from his live set, Elliot revives the 1955 standard with the charm of a silver-screen romantic and the wonder of an artist still discovering what his voice can unlock. Fresh off his swoon-worthy debut EP All This To Say I Love You and viral single I Think They Call This Love (183M+ streams, 1B+ TikTok views), Elliot has quickly become a romantic force.
