  • This is done so beautifully - thank you for sharing it with us!

  • Hi,long forgotten this song,it was my favourite of all their songs,growing up.

    Thanks for sharing.

  • what about"the price of love" from this gig?

  • whoever disliked this is a prick with no soul

  • Still sounds and looks as wonderful as ever! Thanks, Paul!

  • Gives mr goosebumps....

  • I saw them around 1986. Their blend took me off guard... I found I was weeping from the sheer beauty. I was a pretty macho teen so that freaked me out. This brings it right back to me. Jeez. I remember thinking they were "old". HAHAHA. They were masters ... and still are.

  • this song has been known to make me cry xx

  • Such harmony....still makes my heart beat after all these years. Thanks for sharing. Anyone got "No one Can Make My Sunshine Smile?" I'd lover to hear that one again.

  • i suppose i don't even need to start looking for anyone better. Don and Phil are the very best. i would give anything to have met them either years ago or even now.

  • Absolutely perfect Everly Brothers. The steel guitar is fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

  • I love the Everly Brothers and I love this song. What makes this song stand out for me is the steel guitar in the background. At 1:34, Don glances over his shoulder at the steel guitar musician as if to say "You look like you're having a great time with this song".

  • Thanks for the share NYDutch. Great song.

  • oh my, this song is sooooo beautiful. the way they sing it and the way they look. i have not heard  anyone sing like these guys. pure heaven.

  • Thank you for sharing this vid. Fran

  • The original version was up on you tube a while back but was taken down. The original version is by far, the best, IMHO. I remember when that song came out. It was on the flip side of Bye, Bye Love.

    It's one of those few songs that you can listen to over and over and over, and never get sick of it.

  • vwhuggerII - I agree. This is one of my favorites (I have a lot of them, I know). I love this song and the way they sing it. (I tried to thumbs-up your comment but YT wouldn't let me :-(

  • I agree on the original.

  • Their phrasing is immaculate!

  • I remember when this song first came out in the late 1950s, was written I believe by the EB. Sounds even better after all these years. They are the best.

  • Trying to choose a favorite Everly Brother is like trying to choose your favorite between inhaling and exhaling - separately, each is pretty darn great, but together, well, it just makes life good!!

  • I can't seem to decide which one I like better. I began to watch them last fall when I was checking out Ricky Nelson. I told my daughter to play the birddog song by him and she said he didn't have a song about that. Then I thought Don was ignoting Phil when they sang and Phil was so attentive to Don. From then I was "hooked." I heard or read somewhere that Phil watched Don to be able to harmonize with him. Maybe...

  • I think you may be right about Phil sensing Don's nuances during a performance. It must have been so difficult to spend that much time with your brother and to grow up in front of the whole world, bad days and good. lol

  • Excuse me, I meant "ignoring Phil." It sort of angered me because I couldn't see anyone ignoring that sweet guy. I watched several of the videos to see if he ignored him in others. By then I was interested and it didn't take me long to find out about the harmonizing.

  • I have read that their harmonizing is instinctual, and I have to believe that!

  • @ariesgypsy --

    YES I CAN'T CHOOSE EITHER--their voices just makes your heart feel so good it spreads all over your body, not much in life can make you feel that good !!!!

  • This appears to be part of the Reunion Concert. I'm wondering why this isn't on my version of it. Somewhere I heard or read that there were two recordings of the concert with different songs. Does anyone know this to be true?

  • I have this on dvd and I watch it everyday. Love it!

  • Oops! Sorry, wrong song. I still love it, though. Thank you!

  • They both have wonderful voices, but with them singing together, that's when the magic happens!

  • I have to agree with Killroy----It's hard to believe it's been 25 years since THE REUNION! lOVE THIS SONG....Thanks, megasuggs!

  • I had no idea they were still doing this song at such a late date...wonderful! I love this song and I like the fact that they could still perform it in a different but effective way.

  • There is an entirely different version of this song on the 'Roots' album from the late 60's. Worth checking out!

  • Beautiful! Thanks Paul.

    Funny thing is, judging by the vocals, it sounds just like the CD version to me, but the steel guitar part (mixed much louder), is completely different. So either this is the unreleased version, or they did some reeeally clever editing on the Reunion Concert album

  • There is certainly some editing on the CD, listen to Temptation, it has backing vocals which are not on the video. and they only sang temptation on the first night of the reunion,(I know coz I was there) so it must be the same performance.

  • Interesting. I think the Walk Right Back book mentions something about Don recording that solo in a studio for the double-album.

  • @GregMcG1983 the re3union was in 1985 this was 1983

  • Hard to believe that this Reunion is 25 years ago this year. Ik bought the VHS of it early 1989. Always annoyed how terribly false the intro to "Let it be me" was. I now have the concert on DVD. The intro is however still out of tune.

  • It makes me feel old, I was there.

  • Such a shame none of the concerts from the late 90's are available on DVD.

  • Wow!!

  • This is a treasure trove of a rendition. Gosh, really lovely. Thanks.

  • Oh no, I agree. This is wonderful material and I really appreciate it that you share them here on Youtube. Keep them comin'

  • There's a bunch of songs left out on the DVD of the Reunion Concert. Any tips on how I can order songs like these?

  • I don't think they are comercialy available, thats why I've decided to post them, I hope you like them, I think the Everlys are just unbeatable.
