Sisters and best friends Mary-Keaton and Stella Render, an emerging harmonious teenage pop-country duo from Arkansas better known as Render Sisters, exclusively premiered a stunningly beautiful video by Country Rebel [click to watch] of their special medley of “Love Hurts,” and “It’s A Heartache.” The song was recorded and produced by Michael Lattanzi, shot at his scenic Lattitude Studio South in Leipers Fork, Tennessee, with Carl Dielbold directing the video.
“Love Hurts” was originally composed by legendary Nashville songwriter Boudleaux Bryant, and was first recorded as a harmony by The Everly Brothers who released it by Warner Brothers Records in 1960. The song has also been sung by Roy Orbison, Emmy Lou Harris & Gram Parsons, Cher, Jim Capaldi, Joan Jett, and most famously by Scottish rock band Nazareth, who turned it into a Top 10 hit in 1975.
“It’s A Heartache” was originally written by British pop songwriter and producers Ronnie Scott & Steve Wolfe in 1977, and turned into an international Top 5 hit in 1978 by Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler by way of RCA Records. Juice Newton and Ronnie Spector also released their own versions of the song that same year.
