AN EXCELLENT COPY OF THIS EVERLY BROTHERS CLASSIC - BYE BYE LOVE BYE BYE LOVE
(Boudleaux Bryant / Felice Bryant)
The husband-and-wife songwriting team of Boudleaux and Felice Bryant wrote this. Together, this talented couple penned many huge hits for the Everly Brothers and other artists, including "Wake Up Little Susie" and "All I Have To Do Is Dream." The Bryants are credited with being the first songwriters to come to Nashville and make a living only by writing songs. The Bryants wrote this song for Elvis, who turned it down. Talking to Chet Atkins about it, Chet said, "I've got a couple of young kids coming in to record. Why don't you offer it to them." The Bryants did and the boys liked it, but they struggled in the studio for hours. It just didn't click. Finally in frustration, Don started playing an intro he had thought up for another song. "What's that?" Chet asked. "Tack that onto the front of 'Bye Bye Love'. I think we've got something here." He was right. Don's guitar intro was the "hook" that got people's attention and sold the song...the Everly Brothers' first hit. IN THE UK THE RECORD REACHED NUMBER 6 IN THE CHARTS AND STAYED IN THE CHARTS A TOTAL OF 16 WEEKS - IT WAS THE EVERLY BROTHERS FIRST HIT EVERLY BROTHERS LONDON HLA 8440 A SIDE : BYE BYE LOVE B SIDE: I WONDER IF I CARE AS MUCH CONDITION - EX / EX-

Bye bye, love, bye bye, happiness
Hello loneliness, I think I m gonna cry
Bye bye, love, bye bye, sweet caress
Hello emptiness, I feel like I could die
Bye bye my love, good-bye
There goes my baby with someone new
She sure looks happy, I sure am blue
She was my baby till he stepped in
Good-bye to romance that might have been
Bye bye, love, bye bye, happiness
Hello loneliness, I think I'm gonna cry
Bye bye, love, bye bye, sweet caress
Hello emptiness, I feel like I could die
Bye bye, my love, good-bye
I'm through with romance, I'm through with love
I'm through with countin' the stars above
And here's the reason that I'm so free
My loving baby is through with me
Bye bye, love, bye bye, happiness
Hello loneliness, I think I'm gonna cry
Bye bye, love, bye bye, sweet caress
Hello emptiness, I feel like I could die
Bye bye, my love, good-bye
Bye bye, my love, good-bye
Bye bye, my love, good-bye....
