49. The Christian Life by The Louvin Brothers
The Christian Life was released in 1959 and stood out as one of the best tracks on The Louvin Brothers’ second gospel album, Satan Is Real. The brothers took inspiration from other sibling singers in their harmonious performance.
A deep, resonating song fueled with all the spirit and sadness of the Depression era, this song was later covered by The Byrds for their 1968 release, Sweetheart of the Rodeo.
