There is no more beautiful sound

than the voices of siblings

swirled together in high harmony,

and when Phil and Don Everly

combined their voices

with songs about yearning,

angst and loss,

it changed the world.

 

(...)

 

You could argue

that while Elvis Presley

was the king of rock 'n' roll,

Phil and Don Everly

were its troubled princes.

 

They sang dark songs

hidden behind deceptively

pleasing harmonies

and were perfect interpreters

of the twitchy hearts

of millions of baby boomer teens

coming of age in the 1950s and '60s

looking to express themselves

beyond the simple platitudes

of the pop music of the day.
