Everly Brothers, The - (I'd Be) A Legend in My Time Lyrics
If heartaches brought fame
In love's crazy game
I'd be a legend in my time
If they gave gold statuettes
For tears and regrets
But they don't give awards
And there's no praise or fame
For a heart that's been broken
Over love that's in vain
If loneliness meant world acclaim
Then everyone would know my name
I'd be a legend in my time
And there's no praise or fame
Over love that's in vain
If loneliness meant world acclaim
Then everyone would know my name
I'd be a legend in my time
I'd be a legend in my time

Everly Brothers, The (I'd Be) A Legend in My Time Comments
They sing this song better than anyone.
Love "Let it be me", that's a classic. This one belongs to my Roy.
Another classic from the pen of Don Gibson, good version by the evs.
THEY APPLIED THEIR BEAUTIFUL TOUCH UPON THIS BEAUTIFUL BALLAD..........
Must be one of their worst .Not a patch on Roy Orbison`s version
Written by the late great Don Gibson
Excellent version by the Bros', but I still give the edge to Roy Orbison, love them both....
Sooo beautiful 😇🙂
Aaaaa Don's and Phil's gorgeous voices..like a caress.🌹🌹🌹
One of the Greatest duos of all time. They do a great job here.
They did Ronnie Milsap?! WOW!!!!!
Probably before Ronnie. Don Gibson wrote it and recorded it in 1960 if I remember right.
Everyone should grow up with the Everly Bros.'s music. Each new song was a revelation. God bless 'em, I say. Thanks so much 4 the Love in each song. Their Daddy Ike taught them well. RIP Phil; I wish I could sing like u. U live on thru yr children and yr music.
Incredible song by two incredible guys, love them always
WOW
Wonderful song by the incredible Everly Bros.
Totally agree with Sherry.
From a 70yo Aussie fan.
OH ! They are so great....
I loved it !! They are legends to me !
Nice try guys, but, no one beats the Big O
A different take on the Don Gibson song.
Merci Papa
beautiful, even i prefer big O version
ronnie milsap's live version is also excellent !!!!
@justmusicandme you need to listen to roy orbisons version it is by far the best ever
nobody sings this as good as roy orbison it was a song made for him
Ronnie Milsap is the singer who had a hit with it.
Thank you for this excellent video. I really love that last picture - so fitting for the best of the best...Phil and Don. I also love this this beautiful song.
I enjoyed the video!
---------Ellen
great vocals....happy day your way...love,lisa
superb vocals and very fine arrangement
I would have never guessed it was recorded in the mid-70's
Framat
I wish it had been a touch faster and the arrangement is a little sparse. Voices are great but the producer must have been asleep or gone for dinner.
My best loved song by the everly brothers is that's old fashond that's the way love s should be
Thanks, Loretta. This is absolutely gorgeous. Speaking of gorgeous, has anyone taken a look at Phil's son, Jason, lately? This is definitely going to my favorites. Thanks, imanuglyfrogtoo. *****.
@justmusicandme I'll add this to the gifts I got at Christmas also, Loretta, thanks! To Mark, well in mate!!
