The Everly Brothers - Bird Dog / Till I kissed you
Музыка
Bird dog lyrics:
Johnny is a joker (he's a bird)
A very funny joker (he's a bird)
But when he jokes my honey (he's a dog)
His jokin' ain't so funny (what a dog)
Johnny is a joker that's a'tryin' to steal my honey (he's a bird dog)
Johnny sings a love song (like a bird)
He sings the sweetest love song (ya ever heard)
But when he sings to my gal (what a howl)
To me he's just a wolf dog (on the prowl)
Johnny wants to fly away and puppy-love my baby (he's a bird dog)
Hey, bird dog get away from my quail
Hey, bird dog you're on the wrong trail
Bird dog you better leave my lovey-dove alone
Hey, bird dog get away from my chick
Hey, bird dog you better get away quick
Bird dog you better find a chicken little of your own
Johnny kissed the teacher (he's a bird)
He tiptoed up to reach her (he's a bird)
Well he's the teacher's pet now (he's a dog)
What he wants he's been gettin' now (what a dog)
He even made the teacher let him sit next to my baby (he's a bird dog)
Hey, bird dog get away from my quail
Hey, bird dog you're on the wrong trail
Bird dog you better leave my lovey-dove alone
Hey, bird dog get away from my chick
Hey, bird dog you better get away quick
Bird dog you better find a chicken little of your own
Till I kissed you lyrics:
Never felt like this until I kissed ya
How did I exist until I kissed ya
Never had you on my mind
Now you're there all the time
Never knew what I missed 'til I kissed ya, uh-huh
I kissed ya, oh yeah
Things have really changed since I kissed ya, uh-huh
My life's not the same now that I kissed ya, oh yeah
Mmm, ya got a way about ya
Now I can't live without ya
Never knew what I missed 'til I kissed ya, uh-huh
I kissed ya, oh yeah
[Chorus:]
You don't realize what you do to me
And I didn't realize what a kiss could be
Mmm, ya got a way about ya
Now I can't live without ya
Never knew what I missed 'til I kissed ya, uh-huh
I kissed ya, oh yeah
[Chorus]
[Fade]
I kissed ya, uh-huh
I kissed ya, oh yeah

The total model for the early Beatles sound. Complete with Buddy Holly band and influence.

Thank you. I HAVE ALWAYS THOUGHT PHIL EVERLY WAS THE MOST GORGEOUS MAN GOD EVER CREATED
Wow, I like this version of “till I kissed ya” better than studio version, have listened to i t 20 times in a row, just amazing sound
These guys had been there, seen it, done it, chucked it all away got it all back, played catch with it and wiped their arses on it before I was even born. Just me saying they are one of my favorite bands says it all. Genius. P.S thanks Dad for playing them relentless in the car when I was a kid. This is what got me into them.
RIP Don and Phil. You guys were the best. No one today can touch you!
Till I kissed ya. . As long as I can still listen to it, life's worth living. Thank you.
I love them! So does my grand son! 6-22-2024 RIP Everly Bros Patty1957 😂😅😊
Absolutely flawless vocals. They were so polished. A class act. The Crickets backing them up were also great.

Did you know that back in 1958 The Everlys and The Crickets discussed merging into one act!! In fact a few months earlier,whilst touring in Florida,the Everlys back up band was unable to hit the stage,then Buddy and The Crickets stepped up to support their friends

At first time I think was : seems Crickets .... Oh what big surprise with that confirmation. Thanks, fellow. Very cool
Their country accents come on so fine with this tune. It's why I loved them in 1957 when I was 9, and to this day. Seeing them live was an all time music high. Natives of Kentucky as my own ancestry....Central City's Everly Brothers heritage there is phenomenal.
I've sung Bird Dog hundreds of times at gigs. Of course it has never sounded even close to Phil & Don. Then, no one ever did. R.I.P. Phil, thanks for the great music.

The best, hands down, no doubt about it. I grew up in the small town they lived in. They shaped our lives. Just wish they hadn't been squeezed out like they were. They should have been playing big stadiums like Neil Diamond, but Acuff-Rose killed that. www.savingcountrymusic.com/how-music-row-acuff-rose-killed-the-everly-brothers/#:~:text=Phil%20Everly%20of%20The%20Everly%20Brothers%20Passes%20Away&text=But%20when%20their%20first%20single,Columbia%20promptly%20dropped%20the%20duo.&text=So%20then%20Chet%20Atkins%20introduced,Acuff%2DRose%20with%20Roy%20Acuff.
Re comments that say it was Phil’s tenor harmonies that gave the Everlys their distinct sound: that’s literally only half the story. It was the combination of Don’s tenor-baritone lead alongside Phil’s tenor - both in the same genetic/DNA vocal tone - that made their sound unique.
I love this Classic listening to it 2022
Rest in peace, Phil. Enjoyed yours and Don's records.
Sad to hear about you phil, truly depressing news. 'Until i kissed You' is so much musical value in itself. What harmonies, we'd still need 'em, perhaps more than ever. RIP
Nobody seems to realize that it's the Crickets that back the Everly Brothers here. They are a legend in their own right.

The sound track to my life. Conjuring up latent memories of my pre-adolescent years. No auto tune, but both songs perfectly reproduced life and true to the original recording. They had to be good. Poor performers that we have today wouldn’t/couldn’t cut it.
Best duo harmony I ever heard was by these two brothers👍

Fabulous !!! There is just something about BLOOD harmonizing that is different than two people who can harmonize if that makes any sense. It's different from artists who double track and harmonize with themselves. It's simply distinctive.

Genetic harmony can be stunning! The Beach Boys were also fantastic... however listen to the Beatles's vocal blend and notice how 'Because' (from Abby Road) proves exquisite resonance and timbre can exist even among unrelated singers. A less noted aspect of what made the Everly Bothers' so intriguing was their regional accent and innovative use of bluegrass harmonic intervals in pop music.

@@stewartfenton7660 Without a doubt. No one sounded like them, no one looked liked them and they def had a style of performing which was their own. It was rockabilly at it's finest. In fact, imho they are responsible for originating it.

My younger sister was tortured every time Wake up Little Suzie ( her name was Suzie) came on the radio bc we'd all start singing it to her and she'd cry. lol I've been listening to them for 63 yrs and I'll go to my grave listening. :o)

As a thirteen year old kid, I nearly kill myself prating about in the back of our old B&W TV, trying to get it working, so I could for the first time “see” the Everly Brothers on this show. Somehow I got it working and, the high-voltage shock I got from the TV and from seeing them, turned me into an Everly fan until the day I die
AWESOME.
