Why Worry

I'd never seen this before, but the way they play with the melody and the timing and yet never lose each other for a moment is staggering. And as Peter Lubin wrote in a fantastic Popdose piece, an amazing thing about the Everly Brothers is that, unlike other close harmony singers, they never watch each other's mouths: they stare into each other's eyes or look out at the audience.


Also, that's, uh...that's a pretty decent lil band there.

RIP Phil Everly

It's one of the most famous sibling feuds in all of rock and roll. But when I think of the Everly Brothers, I think of the way they can barely take their eyes off each other once during this entire song, and the tender way Phil smiles at his brother the second time Don sings "without your sweet love," in what sure looks like complete admiration and utter adoration.
