"The Price of Love" is a song by the Everly Brothers, released in 1965. It charted at number 2 in the UK and number 3 in Ireland. It spent one week at Number 1 on the NME chart in the UK, but in the US, the song failed to chart at the hot 100.

It was released on the same day as the album '' Spare Parts'', but was not included on it, and it failed to chart. They re-recorded it in 1991 for inclusion on a later album, ''Rock 'til You Drop''.

The Everly Brothers
The Everly Brothers were an American rock duo, known for steel-string acoustic guitar playing and close harmony singing. Consisting of Isaac Donald "Don" Everly (February 1, 1937 – August 21, 2021) and Phillip "Phil" Everly (January 19, 1939 – January 3, 2014), the duo combined elements of rock and roll, country, and pop, becoming pioneers of country rock. The duo was raised in a musical family, first appearing on radio singing along with their father Ike Everly and mother Margaret Everly as "The Everly Family" in the 1940s. When the brothers were still in high school, they gained the attention of prominent Nashville musicians like Chet Atkins, who began to promote them for national attention. 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, ...

Bryan Ferry
Bryan Ferry Order of the British Empire, CBE (born 26 September 1945) is an English singer and songwriter. His voice has been described as an "elegant, seductive croon". He also established a distinctive image and sartorial style: according to ''The Independent'', Ferry and his contemporary David Bowie influenced a generation with both their music and their appearances.

In 1970 he began to assemble the rock band Roxy Music with a group of friends and acquaintances in London, and took the role of lead singer and main songwriter. The band achieved immediate international success with the release of their eponymous debut album in 1972, containing a rich multitude of sounds, which reflected Ferry's interest in exploring different genres of music.

Status Quo (band) Songs
is a Latin phrase meaning the existing state of affairs, particularly with regard to social, political, religious or military issues. In the sociological sense, the ''status quo'' refers to the current state of social structure and/or values. With regard to policy debate, it means how conditions are, contrasted with a possible change. For example: "The countries are now trying to maintain the ''status quo'' with regard to their nuclear arsenals." To maintain the ''status quo'' is to keep things the way they presently are. The related phrase ''status quo ante'', literally "the status before", refers to the state of affairs that existed previously. Political usage Via social movements the status quo might be overhauled. These seek to alleviate or prevent a particular issue and often to shape social feeling and cultural expression of a society or nation. The status quo is at least in part rejected by their protagonists – progressives – leading the movement. Advocat ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things already mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words.

The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter.

List Of NME Number-one Singles From The 1960s
The ''NME'' (or ''New Musical Express'') was a British weekly popular music newspaper. Record charts in the United Kingdom began on 14 November 1952 when ''NME'' imitated an idea started in American ''Billboard'' magazine compiled their own hit parade. Until 15 February 1969, when the British Market Research Bureau (BMRB) chart was established, many periodicals compiled their own charts. During this time the BBC used aggregated results of the prominent ''NME'', ''Melody Maker'', '' Disc'', ''Record Mirror'' and, later, ''Record Retailer'' charts to compile their ''Pick of the Pops'' chart. Prior to 1969 there was no universally accepted source or "official" singles chart; however, the Official Chart Company and Guinness' British Hit Singles & Albums regard the canonical sources for this period as ''NME'' before 10 March 1960 and ''Record Retailer'' from then until the BMRB took over in 1969.
