Hi from England, I'm a 74 yrs old fan, this was one of my late wife and mines favourite songs. It brought back so many wonderful memories, thank you.

[@MariaCalfaDePaul]

John James McCartney awe I’m sorry for your loss. This is my wedding song. When we were dating we used to play the Willie Nelson version in the Jukebox of our favorite late night diner. Beautiful rendition

[@Jelsick]

My mom was a big Everly Brothers fan. She would have been 78 years old next week. I remember as a kid in the 70s listening to her Everly Brothers records on our old record player. This makes me think of her. She passed away in 1986 at 44 from cancer. Carpe Diem....

[@brucewalters8635]

As close to The Everly Brothers as anyone will ever get. Harmonies and that lead guitarist is the bomb!

[@orsie200]

I have loved The Everly Bothers since I was a teenager in the 60’s. I finally got to meet them in 1988, and I had a long conversation with Phil at that time. He autographed one of my albums, asking “Where did you get this?” He seemed astounded when I told him I had been their fan since I was a young girl, and I had purchased the album with babysitting money. I always thought Let It Be Me would be a beautiful wedding song, as would Devoted to You. Thanks for this!

[@bradrio2826]

I'm a singer, and there is nothing I love more than a good sad song. Singing has the power to draw upon the darkest things and turn them into beautiful things.

[@bramguy50]

i dont understand why its a sad song ? isnt it about finding love and keeping it? I thought it was a beautiful song but I dont find it sad?

[@missys.3038]

​@@bramguy50 I think maybe because it's slow. I never thought this song was sad. I always thought the singer was asking their lover to always stay with them, to always let them be the person they choose to be with.

[@pratikangadi5728]

It's heart warming to hear younger generation to sing such classic song. Keep this up.

[@kenthawley5990]

Toni's Tele tone (Triple T) is phenomenal. Takes us back to the '50s and Phil and Don. Add that to Reina's melancholy vocals, and we get a sad but sweet experience.

[@charlie-obrien]

That is one lovely Tele and Toni is spot on with her interpretation of this classic.

[@JasperKloek]

Also, I like how the Tele matches Toni's hair.

[@WillPellKB926]

I would love to see Toni throw back a borderline excessive amount of beer, be very relaxed, and let her rip!

[@sergeantmasson3669]

Great music is timeless. Chet Atkins sure knew what he was doing when he helped the Everly Brothers get started in music. Both of the brothers are gone now but their music will live on forever.

[@TheMongo1357]

It's not a sad song!!!!! It's by far one of the greatest love songs ever written and or performed by the Everly Brothers!!! It also happens to our Wedding song, high school Sweethearts and happily still married 37 years later!!

[@missys.3038]

I was confused by them calling it a sad song as well. I have known this song for a shorter time than you have as I am 33 years old but I have always interpreted it as the singer saying they are so happy with their love and so asking their lover to always choose them, no matter what please always let me be the one you choose to spend your life with. I never considered anyone would see it as sad. Maybe they think the singer's love is leaving sad so they are begging them to stay.

[@strayansnoipa6597]

It's not simply a cover, it's an experience! Listening to your silky voices is just out of this world, keep it up!

They just don't write them like that anymore. Lovely rendition, thank you for keeping these classic love songs alive 💞

[@kennrothman205]

[@jamesfennen4683]

Amen to most of the comments concerning the joy your music brings to those who grew up way back. Today on my 77th Bday I have spent most of my day enjoying all your cover tunes. Especially like those with Reina Josh Carson Toni together, love the way you complement each other. What a blessing.

[@thorstenteubner4513]

I don't know what some people have in their hearts. Here two young, great people play a great song ... the two connect many people in harmony every Sunday. Where do 27 dislikes come from ... I don't understand. The two really stand for the good thing in life ... I don't understand that! But there will always be these few ...god bless toni, reina, mary, josh and all the others and may he protect them.

Yes , it's actually a really sad song.I've continuously listened to this Reina's version for many many days because I've really found someone very special and out of this world and in my mind I'm begging her that if she clings to someone, let it be me.Nature definitely doesn't want this to happen and I'm very heart broken and maybe I'll not find someone like her again.Therefore I keep listening to this song in the hope that someday she clings..but it doesn't seem near at all..
