  MTV.com - The Bellamy Brothers
Although the Bellamy Brothers are the most successful duo in country music history, they have never been favored by the critics.
After some encouragement, the Bellamy Brothers recorded and released Williams' song, "Let Your Love Flow." The song broke the doors wide open for the brothers, topping the pop charts and climbing into the country Top 30, as well as being a major hit in Britain, West Germany, and Scandinavia.
The Bellamy Brothers' country breakthrough happened in 1979, with the tongue-in-cheek "If I Said You Had a Beautiful Body Would You Hold It Against Me." Initially, the song was a hit in Ireland, convincing the duo's American record company to release it as a single.

The Brothers is a fun, light-hearted film that not only makes you laugh out loud but also gives the female audiences some hope that men aren’t so dense after all.
