Omigod I'm so flipping OLD! Takes me back to the spring of 1960 - leaving Paris by train, to catch a boat at Dieppe. Alan Haynes (God bless ya, Alan!!) taught us this song and a group of us sang it (among others) to entertain ourselves on the voyage. Don't remember any of the OTHER songs - but no matter. Cathy's Clown has stayed in my memory f-o-r-e-v-e-r. Whoever said "nobody could sing it better" - right on! Thanks for the memory.
@fastmod3 Sorry to intrude but you sound like a contemporary. The first time I ever worked up never enough to walk across a dance floor and asked a girl to dance it was at a sock hop and they were playing Cathy's Clown. I'm not sure it was a better time but I certainly miss those days.
@kari900 don't you look different or have you not aged at all!?!?!? Yes, they aged. But thankfully we have their music. Their looks should have nothing to do with that.
what he said! they are amazing when it comes to evening eachother out, Beautiful melodys and voices. and i love how they sound the same on a CD or recording as they do live, its their natural voices that are beautiful, no help needed.
Nobody could sing better than the Everly Brothers, not even Lennon & McCartney even though they came very close! Don & Phil were both natural tenors. Don being the 'dramatic' tenor & Phil the 'lyric' tenor.
@YesterdayProductions You know, when you start trying to say someone was the best or better, you do a great disservice to the era. Can you imagine if all of these artists had a criteria to determine who was best? Everything would have sounded the same, like it does today. Today's artists are conforming to a criteria! There is enough competition in the USA, leave the great music of the 1960's out of it. There were so many GREATS!
@bobluman4 You asked my brother 2 months ago is that an insult when he said this is one of the best songs by these geezers well he has told me to say no it wasnt an insult.
I came out of Aylestone Swimming Baths and walked towards the main Aylestone Road Leicester,and as I passed the school I saw it was Youth Club Night and everybody was dancing to Cathy's Clown --Fantastic sound --beautiful sight! I shall never forget both.
I grew up with the Everly Brothers. They were the best!! I'm sad that they have retired. We all get old but we still have our wonderful memories of great music in the past!
The thing I notice most about music of the 50s & 60s is that it take a person s memories back to their younger days whereas today's music sounds so angry and is about lawlessness and drugs and is very antisocial. I hear a song from the old days and I remember the car I owned when I heard that song, I remember where I was and what was going on in the world. Wonder why so many movies and commercials today use music from the 50s &60s they are pleasant to listen to.
Many people are saying "what happened to music?". Big money got involved. They will sell anything if they have all the rights. That means all the copyrights to everything. They market to the people spending the money on recordings. Not you! But they all got a big surprise when that older lady from the UK out sold the young stars on the charts. The older crowd will buy if you give em what they want.
this song is the bomb and im old lol am divorced met a neat lady called kathy was my freind omg the parties we had with this song and no she was marreid and happy we wernt bi lol she just showed me as the new freinds i met even at my age we could have fun, so kathy olsen from te kuiti ytomo king county new zealand this is for you and being a true freind huggs annie
hey utubecritic, pre-beatles music was the best, and had the best vocals. i do like the music after the british invasion, but good vocals were replaced with alot of guitars. 50's will always rule
First of all the quality here stinks. That said, you can compare anyone of your Brits and they still would not stand under the singing quality of this duo. The proof should be in the sound. Unfortunately, you can't judge that from this sorry quality.
They were great but were blown away by the British Invasion, along with Frankie Avalon, Bobby Vinton, Paul Anka, Ricky Nelson, and Bobby Vee. Now play "I Want to Hold Your Hand" and hear why.
but then there was a huge difference The Everlys dont suck
Paul McCartney was better off solo and i find it hilarious how Johns Ringos and Georges careers went down the toilet while Paul became one of the most commercially sucessful songwritters of all time
Hey Tweeker, hows-a-come we always seem to end up listenin' to these same songs? You gotcha some good darn taste in Music there, a don't-ya? And if ole Wilcoe is a shootin' straight, why I agree about this here YouTube, it's the best!
here we go again another young twat thinks we all arrived on the banana boat..he proposed to my granny first her name was cathy,then he proposed to kathy kerby then it was catherine of spain the king of spains wife and so on and so on.....
My mom plays these kinds of songs every day, and it makes ME want to go back to the 60s!! I absolutly love this music, along with Jonny Mistro (not sure if i spelled his name right) the Beatles, and many, many, MANY more! Love the song!
This song is brilliant! I'm 27 and if I could go back to the late 50's early 60's I would. Just for the music!............... Oh and the cars as well. lol
That's my dad's philosophy as well...We were watching American Grafitti about a month ago, and every minute, I'd say "That's a fantastic song!" and he'd say "That's a fantastic car!" We remember nothing of the movie except the music and the cars. XD
I'd bet the Beatles could have done a brilliant cover of this song, too. All those lovely harmonies back in the '60s....why don't we have that anymore?
it changed in a bad way if you ask me... do you ever hear a song that's about honest true love anymore? no now its all about money and heart break and how they cheated and everything else under the sun but you hardly hear an honest to goodness song like this anymore...
cathy i wasnt stupid growing up and dyslexia wasnt seen or hear d of inthe 70,s hey cathy i love you and please lets try put the past behind us and your a clever girl and im proud of you honest i am xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxlove helen your big sister and mum would want us to try get on xim offeringthehand of friendship cathy xxxxxxx
for mysister called cathy i love you sister and even though our mum died 14 weeks ago lets put the past behind us and try to be sisterts and good mates, imsorry for sister fighting growing up , hey im your big sister helen xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
When this came out I was going out with a girl named Kathy and she stood me up and finished it most unceremoniously in that cruel way youngsters do. I had to listen to my mates chanting this at me for weeks after!
I love this song!! My mum always used to play it when I was little, and I have always loved it!! & I'm called Cathy, which is probably why she played it so much!
This song always upset my cousin when he heard it; his girlfriend Kathy sent him a "dear john" when he was in the military in 1968. He could never listen to it after that without crying
no Don wrote this for sure.. and it got them out of the soppy stuff (all have to do is dream)..they were superb harmonizers...British Invasion made them look uncool..hear BOWLING GREEN
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Great classic! Too bad you can't really hear the fantastic piano playing very well. I always thought heped that make this song so great. I believe Neil Diamond wrote this.

Christ exisits... Have you ever been to church? They have proof from the shroud turin. Look it up, Its pretty darn cool. Look it up on images on google. ^.^ Im 13 and know that.........
okigil-oh really? and is this your synopsis on the matter? The voice of profound insight speaks, and may we all stand back and say 'Oooooh' as the fuckwit okigil speaks from the bravery and anon.of internet space.
If he's sweet how come he didn't give me a voice like that? Christ - if he ever existed that's another question, you had 13 'messias' on the dozen at that time in the middle east - is NOT sweet.
i read you comment, listened to the 43rd second, where he says "aaawall." And if that's what you're talking about, you're right. Amazing sound. Just incredible what he did with such a simple word.
This was the first piece of music that I remember hearing. I must have been about 10 years of age, back in the mid-late 50's. A village, fairground ride, background music. It has stayed with me ever since. So haunting, so beautiful.
I arrived here because of Elliott Smith's song Waltz #2. This is very upbeat though, unlike Elliott's (amazing) music. I enjoyed this song! :D

Don wrote the chorus on his own and the verses with Phil Sometime later though Phil signed over the song to Don.

Great classic! Too bad you can't really hear the fantastic piano playing very well. I always thought heped that make this song so great. I believe Neil Diamond wrote this.

What on earth has religion got to do with these two singing a song that was one of the best hits of the 60's

@helenmain Well Said. A lot of people tend to go off the point on Youtube with ridiculous arguments. It's just a great song, so enjoy it!

Locheelad2...U r right Christ is sweet He gave the Everlys these great voices, man sweet is sure right my friend.

If he's sweet how come he didn't give me a voice like that? Christ - if he ever existed that's another question, you had 13 'messias' on the dozen at that time in the middle east - is NOT sweet.

I love the inflection in his voice at :43 - different from the original studio version (I'm pretty sure)

i read you comment, listened to the 43rd second, where he says "aaawall." And if that's what you're talking about, you're right. Amazing sound. Just incredible what he did with such a simple word.

Yes, this is indeed what I'm talking about. It's nice to know someone else appreciates the little things too... :-)

what an amazing song. I grew up listening to Thw Who, Led Zep and Beatles. I'm new to this - brilliant

Absolutely amazing. They just don't make them like this anymore.
Wonderful talent, wonderful memories.

This was the first piece of music that I remember hearing. I must have been about 10 years of age, back in the mid-late 50's. A village, fairground ride, background music. It has stayed with me ever since. So haunting, so beautiful.

These guys are soooo good.
Listening to this music brings back so many fond memories of being a kid watching the teens in my family grooving to the EB's
