"You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" is a song by #PhilSpector, #BarryMann and #CynthiaWeil, first recorded in 1964 by the American vocal duo #theRighteousBrothers. This version, produced by Spector, is cited by some music critics as the ultimate expression and illustration of his #WallOfSound recording technique.
