They began writing and recording their own music in 1956, and their first hit song came in 1957, with "Bye Bye Love", written by Felice and Boudleaux Bryant. The song hit No. 1 in the spring of 1957, and additional hits would follow through 1958, many of them written by the Bryants, including "Wake Up Little Susie", "All I Have to Do Is Dream", and "Problems". In 1960, they signed with the major label Warner Bros. Records and recorded "Cathy's Clown", written by the brothers themselves, which was their biggest selling single. The brothers enlisted in the United States Marine Corps Reserve in 1961, and their output dropped off, though additional hit singles continued through 1962, with "That's Old Fashioned (That's the Way Love Should Be)" being their last top-10 hit.
Long-simmering disputes with Wesley Rose, the CEO of Acuff-Rose Music, which managed the group, a growing drug usage in the 1960s, as well as changing tastes in popular music, led to the group's decline in popularity in its native U.S., though the brothers continued to release hit singles in the U.K. and Canada, and had many highly successful tours throughout the 1960s. In the early 1970s, the brothers began releasing solo recordings, and in 1973 they officially broke up. Starting in 1983, the brothers got back together, and would continue to perform periodically until Phil's death in 2014. Don died seven years later.
The group was highly influential on the music of the generation that followed it. Many of the top acts of the 1960s were heavily influenced by the close-harmony singing and acoustic guitar playing of the Everly Brothers, including the Beatles, the Beach Boys, the Bee Gees, and Simon & Garfunkel. In 2015, Rolling Stone ranked the Everly Brothers No. 1 on its list of the 20 Greatest Duos of All Time. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as part of the inaugural class of 1986, and into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2001. Don was inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in 2019, earning the organization's first Iconic Riff Award for his distinctive rhythm guitar intro to the Everlys' massive 1957 hit "Wake Up Little Susie".

The Everly Brothers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Bye bye happiness
Hello loneliness
I think I'ma gonna cry
Bye bye love
Bye bye sweet caress
Hello emptiness
Bye bye my love goodbye
There goes my baby with someone new
She sure looks happy, I sure am blue
She was my baby 'til he stepped in
Goodbye to romance that might have been
Bye bye love
Bye bye happiness
Hello loneliness
I think I'ma gonna cry
Bye bye love
Bye bye sweet caress
Hello emptiness
I feel like I could die
Bye bye my love goodbye
I'm through with romance, I'm through with love
I'm through with counting 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'ma gonna cry
Bye bye love
Bye bye sweet caress
Hello emptiness
I feel like I could die
Bye bye my love goodbye
Bye bye my love goodbye
Bye bye my love goodbye
Bye bye my love goodbye

Bye bye love
Güle güle aşk
Bye bye happiness
Güle güle mutluluk
Hello loneliness
Merhaba yalnızlık
I think i'm gonna cry
Sanırım ağlayacağım
Bye bye love
Güle güle aşk
Bye bye sweet caress
Güle güle tatlı öpüşmeler
Hello emptiness
Merhaba boşluk
I feel like i could die
Kendimi ölecek gibi hissediyorum
Bye bye my love, goodbye
Güle güle aşkım,hoşçakal
There goes my baby
Orada benim bebeğim gidiyor
With someone new
Yeni birisiyle
She sure looks happy
Kesinlikle mutlu görünüyor
I sure am blue
Eminim ki mutsuzum
She was my baby
O benim bebeğimdi
Till he stepped in
Oatlayıncaya kadar
Goodbye to romance
Hoşçakal romantizm
That might have been
Olması muhtemel olan
I'm through with romance
Romantizmden vazgeçtim
I'm through with love
Aşktan vazgeçtim
I'm through with counting
Saymaktan vazgeçtim
The stars above
Gökyüzündeki yıldızları
And here's the reason
Ve işte sebebi
That i'm so free
Bu kadar özgür olmamın
My loving baby
Benim sevgili bebeğim
Is through with me
Beni bıraktı
