I was born in 1946 and the music of my time will never ever be matched again. Pure sounds. eat your hearts out hip ho, rap, new wave whatever. Go listen to this era's music
At the age of 74 and living in the Netherlands far from America, this is the music that touches me deep in my soul. I wish many would listen to The Everly Brothers, such good lyrics, I love them on the other side of the world. They often made me cry because of my loss of my daughter. Wonderful to let my emotions go on their music.
Sjef, I, too, love this music. It touches deep in the soul. From across the many waters & beyond, in Nevada, wishing you love, peace and healing. May the Lord bless you.👼🏻
I remember hearing this the first time in the 90s as a small kid and knowing McCartney wrote it, only makes it even better. This is an absolutely wonderful reendition by the Everly Brothers.
Everytime I listen to this song I've got the feeling of flying with the wings. Thanks Paul for writing this great song. Thanks Everly bros for singing so beautifully.
McCartney nailed it with this one. He wrote this song perfectly matched for the Everly Bros. It was no mistake. He knew how to write a perfect fit for them. Awesome song. Plenty of balls and drive without the distorted power chords! Beautiful. A home run for the Everlys and McCartney.
wouldn't have minded hearing the everly brothers singing over sustained power chords accompanied with 80s synth arpeggios. Their vocals suit a big space open around them.
Paul loved the Evs - he must have been pleased/honored to be asked to write a track specifically for them! I think it's one of my favourite Everly tracks, especially knowing the provenance!
Don and Phil were such an influence on John and Paul -- it seems so fitting that Paul would furnish the brothers with their comeback hit. I love this song.
I had the pleasure of seeing the Brothers in 1988 in a small outdoor theater called Pine Knob in Michigan. I was 23 and none of my friends understood why I was going to the concert. I grew up listening to their music and was delighted to see them live. The show was outstanding, and it remains one of my favorite concerts all these years later. Thank you for the music and the memories Phil and Don. 💖
When I have my car(I'm 20 but I need to save money), I will play this song all the time. How I wish Don and Phil could come to Brazil for at least one show... Godspeed Don! Tell Phil we are all missing you!
Greatness has a sound. The harmonies of these 2 great gifted singers straight from Heaven. Could listen to Don and Phil sing ALL day. God rest and keep them both.
This photo makes them look like Greek Gods. They were the cutest of all the teen singers we had in 50's and 60"s. I tend to favor blonde hair so I wished I could meet Phil!
Faszinierend, wie die Stars der 60er Jahre in den 80er Jahren plötzlich wieder international populär wurden, nachdem man in den 70ern fast gar nichts mehr von ihnen gehört hatte. Das war so bei den Everly Brothers, bei Simon & Garfunkel und bei Roy Orbison.
Their voices always made me cry no matter what they sang............... This song always gets to me. It will never get any better than the Everly Brothers. Great loss to the music world.
When Billy Joel first met Paul McCartney he said to him “I can’t believe that I’ve just met my idol,” Paul McCartney replied, “I know just how you feel. That’s how I felt when I met Phil Everly on The Beatles first tour of America”. Says it all. .
These songs will stay with me forever. I'm trying to teach my kids some of them; I think their harmony was so beautiful and their songs deep and I wish they'll never be forgotten. R.I.P. Phil Everly.
God, 31 years ago, can't believe it. I grew up listening to the Everly's, and was delighted when they got together again. I think this was as good as anything they did in their hey day. Saw them at De Montfort Hall in 1985, and they were superb. They influenced so many acts and I don't think they get they deserve today
What a big loss would it be, if we don't have this awesome music to listen. It's made for eternity to bring joy and happiness to the lives of people of all generations!!! 💖
They are my favorite group of all times. They both enlisted in the Marine Corps, and appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show (i think) in their Marine Dress Blues.
Love the Everlys, and this is one of Sir Paul's best, but major kudos to Dave Edmunds for getting this arrangement and song to tape. This recording is nothing short of ethereal.
for me one of the finest two and a half minutes of music ever. Who needs drugs and alcohol when you can feel so good listening to this: but I'll take a single malt with it. Great collaboration.
Dutch Language! Hall of Fame Artiesten als The Beatles, The Beach Boys, Bob Dylan en Simon & Garfunkel werden door The Everly Brothers beïnvloed. "De impact van The Everly Brothers overstijgt zelfs hun roem", schreef Paul Simon in 2004 in het muziekblad Rolling Stone. In 1986 werden de broers als een van de eersten opgenomen in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. thanks for your comment.
Had they released this 20 years earlier it would have been a number 1 and ranked alongside the other classics they did. It still deserves to be ranked alongside them just seems to be forgotten
Dave Edmunds said that it was nerve wracking to call Paul McCartney to write a song, and felt he was being put off when Paul readily said "yes", three weeks later, this song hit the hands of Phil and Don Everly, who recorded it, and took it into the top 40, reaching the top 10. RIP Phil Everly.
What a loss ! I had the the chance to meet them both outside the Royal theater here in Victoria BC several years ago just walking down the street. They both were getting off their tour bus and without missing a step I happened to walk by at that very moment. I had just purchased a ticket to see their concert that night. It was a magical moment for me as I have loved their music and especially their voices and that incredible harmony. There has never been anyone else like the Everly Brothers. Thank you Phil and Don for many years of enjoyment listening to you guys and thanks for taking the time to say hello to me that night. I will never forget it. And this is my favorite song they ever did written by Paul McCartney. Thank you too sir Paul.
I also got to meet them, and I've never forgotten that event. I was deeply saddened when Phil died. I met them in Nashville, Indiana at The Little Nashville Opry House (I think that was the name of the place). It's been years ago, but I still have photos of the event up on my Facebook page. Phil was very kind to me. I got an album I'd had since age 13 autographed. I told Phil I had loved their music for decades, and he made some remark about how I looked so young. :>)
The Everly's , their place is well cemented in Rock & Roll history ..... they sit with Elvis, Buddy Holly, Eddie Cochran, Billy Fury, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee, Sam Cooke, Little Richard, Gene Vincent, Ricky Nelson , to name a few !!!!!
You can hear the unmistakable influence they had on the Beatles. Just a great song that couldn't be sung by any other. But Paul also wrote hits for Badfinger, Mary Hopkins & many others.
I agree, the song reached No.41 in the UK back in October 1984. The song should've been a UK Top 40 hit, even if it only peaked between No.40 and No.31.
Don and Phil Everly were the best. Heavenly harmony and songs that stayed with you were their specialty. I saw them live in Phoenix back in the sixties at some small venue. They were magical. R.I.P. Phil Everly.
Bought the vinyl as soon as it came out. Gerry Conway and Terry Williams on drums. Paul McCartney played guitar on this track. Jeff Lynne arranged The Story of me, same LP.
Oh man, this song still sounds great forty years after I first heard it. I'm playing it twice. Maybe what McCartney's post-Beatles songs lack is harmony. It can elevate a simple song into greatness.
Well, Paul McCartney was a HUGE Everly Brothers fan. He said that without them, there would have been no Beatles. They modeled their harmonies after them.
The Beatles were huge fans of Buddy Holly too, choosing the name "Beatles" by its association with "Crickets". I guess, fans of the Everly Brothers are often fans of Buddy too, and that's understandable.

To those who know this form, this absolutely qualifies as all-time top ten underrated song. A planet in a system all to itself.
Ever thought of being a writer. The way you phrased your comment is priceless and succinct.
I have about 9 others that would complete the list of the top ten underrated songs......
Most songs Paul wrote in his solo years are highly underrated.

Nailed it Sir Paul McCartney. A great grand piece of music was written by you for the Everly Brothers. Old Hippie Cape Town.
Not by me

This is an absolutely wonderful reendition by the Everly Brothers.
RIP Don Everly......now they're both gone.
but never to be forgotten.
I've been a great Everly Bros fan for the last 50 years. Without doubt, this is their BEST single of all time. Should have been a monster hit.
YES!! It's a shame none of their reunion music was ever played on the radio because they never lost it.
I’m here because of Paul McCartney article. He wrote this song.
I agree, it was/is fantastic!
Tears in my eyes
It was no. 2 on the Dutch charts back at the time. Shame it isn't on Spotify, Deezer, etc.
Everytime I listen to this song I've got the feeling of flying with the wings. Thanks Paul for writing this great song. Thanks Everly bros for singing so beautifully.

Alex Henderson a home run

McCartney and the Everlys did work together? How fine
Paul loved the Evs - he must have been pleased/honored to be asked to write a track specifically for them! I think it's one of my favourite Everly tracks, especially knowing the provenance!
"A home run" ? You mean "a hat-trick" 😉
Don and Phil were such an influence on John and Paul -- it seems so fitting that Paul would furnish the brothers with their comeback hit. I love this song.

One of my favorite McCartney songs! I still love it as much as the first time I heard it in 1984!
Absolute perfection. The "petfect"pop song. Class.
Rip Don reunited with your brother
This was 1984. They sound great and almost the same for 25 years later. Timeless.
Yes indeed, from "Bye Bye Love" in 1957 to "On The Wings of a Nightingale" in 1984, the harmony is just perfection.
They sing here like they did way back then with those harmonies.
I think they sounded better in the 80's.
This harmonic duo were so many many light years ahead of any other vocalists, absolutely haunting harmonic geniuses.
These songs will stay with me forever. I'm trying to teach my kids some of them; I think their harmony was so beautiful and their songs deep and I wish they'll never be forgotten. R.I.P. Phil Everly.
great song from the 80's paul mccartney wrote this for them. rip phil everly.

Love the Everlys, and this is one of Sir Paul's best, but major kudos to Dave Edmunds for getting this arrangement and song to tape. This recording is nothing short of ethereal.
One has to imagine that they were able to rock the early 80s once again after they vanished almost 25 years. Indeed they are legends.
There will never be another like Phil and Don. ❤️
