    My heart is broken💔😢 Such an amazing talent gone way too soon! I had the great fortune of talking with him on Twitter a while ago...I was telling him how I had sung "Boats Against the Current" in my cabaret shows in NYC. It was such an honor to not only speak via Twitter but also to have him "follow me" on there!! I also had spoken to his wife Amy about their new puppy they had gotten and also shared a recipe with her.
    My deepest sympathy to Amy and Eric's children. May they find comfort at this time.
    RIP Eric Carmen...you will live on forever because of the most amazing legacy of music you have left us all. Thank you ❤😢🎼🎤🎹🎶

      When I heard this song, I was on the street. I climbed up one floor to a café and was happy to see cake. I stole the cakes. Afterwards I even found the key. I was able to unlock the door and eat cake more often the next time. That way I didn't starve miserably on the street. That was the time when I heard this song.

      Pretty much every song, especially on that first album is a master class in writing songs, period ... a class which I studied closely when learning to play piano and write my own songs. "Don't Want To Say Goodbye", "Waiting", "I Can Remember", each one demonstrating brilliantly constructed chord progressions and gorgeous melodies. I'm from Cleveland as he was and knew Eric a little bit and got to pick his brain about songwriting, singing, etc. Very cool to hear that his reach extends to Australia!

    I just found out, only yesterday, of Eric's passing. I was 10 when I first heard "Go All the Way". Who didn't fall in love with that song. Then when "Let's Pretend" came out, it was my grade school buddies sister's favorite song. I had the biggest crush on her, watching her sing this song, and it was my favorite as well. Ah, puppy love.
    The one song I haven't heard mentioned in these interviews, too often overlooked, from his single outing is "Never Gonna Fall in Love Again". Just a hauntingly beautiful song of the loss of love of someone you feel you can't live without.
    I know, my reading the comments, we are all mourning the loss of a great singer-songwriter, and in that loss we lose a bit of ourselves. Thank you Eric for the music.

    I had an 8 trac tape deck in my hopped up , 72 mustang, . Driving around playing the Raspberries. Introduced my first GF to their music . Then they came to Omaha, Ne. And we saw them with The Who, and Wolfman Jack .They sounded fantastic, Eric hit every note. Loved the song ,, Let's Pretend , . We went back stage right after they finished hoping to meet Eric Carmen and he came out. I was enamored with his whole style. He wore a black, spandex, catsuit , with a layer shag hair cut. His hair All blown out. "You guys are beautiful" I said, not knowing really what to say to him. I remember him asking if we were brother and sister, I said, that's my Girl, then she said " Were only here because of You. Smiling from ear to ear " .these memories come flooding back with his passing. Thank You Eric for the music and the memories.

    I still can’t believe that Eric Carmen is no more His songs were always present in my life. Great songwriter up there with Manilow et al. Sad news when the music fraternity is getting less and less. Much love to Amy and family and EC fans worldwide, from Melbourne, Australia, love and peace❤

    Sad day. As a kid who grew up in the 70’s and later as a musician he had such an influence on me. From the Raspberries to his solo career. Such a gifted musician and songwriter. I was lucky enough to see him perform with Ringo Starr as one of his All Starr’s. RIP Eric.

    I wish everyone would go back and listen to each of his songs on utube or videos were made in Cleveland,i really couldn't believe how many memories were attracted to his songs some i didn't even realize were his.
