Wake Up Little Susie | The Everly Brothers Cover

“Wake Up Little Susie” is a rock-and-roll song recorded by the Everly Brothers in 1957 and written by Boudleaux Bryant. The song tells a humorous story about a young couple who accidentally fall asleep at a movie and wake up after curfew, worrying about how their parents and friends will react. With its catchy melody, close vocal harmonies, and relatable teenage theme, the song became a major hit and helped define the Everly Brothers’ sound. Although some radio stations briefly banned it because of its misunderstood storyline, “Wake Up Little Susie” still reached number one on the charts and remains an important example of early rock music that focused on teen life and emotions.
