The Everly Brothers are the reason John Lennon and Paul McCartney....and Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel learned to harmonize and became extremely successful
Iconic tunage! "Bye Bye Love" was The Everly Brothers first hit, reaching number two on the pop charts in the U.S. in 1957. Roy Orbison covered it. Ray Charles covered it. Simon & Garfunkel covered it. George Harrison covered it. When you're ready for more songs from The Everly Brothers also check out "All I Have to Do Is Dream", "Cathy's Clown", "Wake Up Little Susie", "Crying In The Rain", "Til I Kissed You", "When Will I Be Loved", "Some Sweet Day", "Claudette", "Pretty Flamingo", and "Bowling Green". And for more songs from back then in a similar country pop sonic space, with happy music and sad lyrics, also check out Don Gibson "Blue, Blue Day", "Sea of Heartbreak", "Sweet Dreams", "I Can't Stop Loving You".
"Love Hurts" by Nazarth is a cover of the Everly Brothers. "When Will I Be Loved" by Linda Ronstadt is a cover. "Bye Bye Love" by Simon & Garfunkel is a cover.

@mikecaetano, appreciate your comment with all the historical facts and general info. Thanks!
I grew up with this stuff. Still love it.
And they had a show
A song from my youth! Love it!
These guys are so very awesome! Love your reaction!
The Beattles said they took a lot of inspiration from the Everly Brothers and their harmonies.
I attended their show years ago in Reno, NV and it was awesome!
A blast from the past. Great harmonies.
When the Bee gees,s were young they said they listen to these brothers because of their harmonies. 💕

1957 style music to a tee. I remember that this was very popular.

Seems like only songs from back in the 50s had the style of 'upbeat sadness".
