Hey new design and new releases! Thanks for the informations! I would also expect a future release of all the unreleased material throughout Eric's career, but still this is great.

I love the new design. Congratulations Bernie! By the way I've found out that the link associated to the "Next" button in Music -> Rare Audio is broken.

Thank you Bernie! The song is amazing and its sound quality is impressive! I didn't expect to discover another unreleased gem! So many wasted songs that could have been hugely successful, it's a shame!

Thanks for these demos Bernie. It's great to hear all those unreleased treasures!

Hi Sterling! If you have 3 variables but only 2 equations there isn't one and only solution. The way to solve it properly is: You can fix a variable (egg a= a number) and the solve the other others. you'll find 2 variables depending on the one you fixed (egg b=3*a and c=8*a-5 just an example). consedering the 2 lines you've written that would be: a+b+c=100 (line1) 10a+3b+0.5c=100 (line2) => multiplying each side of the first line by 10: 10a+10b+10c=1000 (line1*10) let's call it line3 10a+3b+0.5c=100 (line2) =>we can keep the first line and change the second into the substraction of the 2 lines 10a+10b+10c=1000 (line3) 7b+9.5c=900 (line3-line2) let's call it line4 now we can't go further as we had 2 lines for 3 variables. but we can already solve in fact! Let's say c is any number. consider line4: 7b=900-9.5c => b=(900-9.5c)/7 now we've got c and b. We can go back to line 1 to find a: a = 100 - b - c a = 100 - (900-9.5c)/7 - c a = 100 - (900-9.5c)/7 - (7c)/7 a = 100 - (900-9.5c-7c)/7 a = 100 - (900-16.5c)/7 and we have all the solutions (including negative ones): c=c b=(900-9.5c)/7 a = 100 - (900-16.5c)/7 Bu as we only want integers from 0 to 100 in this problem you can try for each integer c from 0 to 100 to find a and b and see if there are integers also.

Big thanks Bernie for those wonderful presents! There's always more each Christmas! and merry christmas to you!

Their album Beautiful World is n°1 too! I love Patience, an amazing ballad like Back For good. The album has great uptempo songs (Shine, Reach Out), acoustic guitar based songs (Wooden Boat, Like I've never loved you at all), piano ballads (I'd Wait for life) . The rest is good but could have been better. here you can listen to 2 tracks from it: Patience I'd Wait For Life http://www.megaupload.com/?d=SZ96ESZ5 Don't know if it will be released in the US. It isn't even on itunes.

All the best for your birthday Eric !!

I think Eric has enough various potential hits for a succesful comeback. With: Never Say Die, Cindy In The Wind (catchy pop tunes), The High Cost of Loving (country), DATDBS, After You, Surely I Do, Wild Wild Heart (masterpieces ballads), I don't think releasing DATDBS , if along with one of the mentioned uptempos, would "put him back in an "image prison" again as "a singer of melodramatic ballads"". I'd be glad he has the opportunity of releasing another album with these songs. Maybe it will not work but it will be great if he could try.

I saw them perform All By Myself on this week's Top of the pops on bbc Prime, which means the song has been chosen to promote the new album. Their cover is great but doesn't match Eric's version at all. You can see a small extract on http://www.bbc.co.uk/totp/video/ go to Watch TOTP Online (then 6th nov).

Thank you so much Bernie! For those who have a Mac, you can use Audio Hijack, a software that let you record any sound from running applications.... http://www.rogueamoeba.com/audiohijackpro/ There might be another sofware product for PC... I don't know.

Big thanks for the song!! It's becoming one of my favourite unreleased songs, too! and thanks for the lyrics!

great job MAM. It 's a good cover because it does change from the original. But I prefer Eric's version, sorry! (However , I can't wait to hear the full version!)

Great picture Bernie, thanks!

Happy birthday Eric!! I wish you and your family all the best for the future! and Big Thanks for your wonderful songs that I love!!

Big thanks Tommy, Bernie, Eric and everybody who helped recording this song. This is great Pop!

It's ok now! I hadn't seen it was on the home page. (the link is still wrong, but that doesn't matter)

Thanks Craig. I had forgotten about this site. So Never say Die has been written by Eric Carmen and Desmond Child

What a great story Bernie! I think it's strange you hadn't heard about this song, as I think you know Eric very well. And strange to find it in an abandoned storage locker. Aren't all recordings kept in Arista's or Geffen's archives? Eric has tons of unreleased good songs. He could make a new CD without writing new stuff. By the way, you seem to have a CD with all those unreleased songs, with at least 16 tracks as "It should have been me" is Track16. Could there be a new CD with all those great songs soon?.... Anyway, I'm waiting forward to hear this song. Thanks once again, Bernie!

Hi Bernie, I can't read the news about that single. When I click on "Japan Reissues... " in the Updates section, it tells me: Not Found The requested URL /book.html was not found on this server. A wrong URL?

Hey, I didn't know Eric did record a demo of the long version. I've the short one and knew a verse had been cut thanks to Bernie who put the complete lyrics here a few months ago. Could anybody send me the long one. I could send them the short or another rare song. thanks! yoannickel@yahoo.fr

DATDBS is my favourite Eric Carmen song. I found it wonderul since the first time I heard it on that Christmas day (thanks Bernie). I'm sure this song has a great potential and could become a hit so I'm not surprised people like it. And maybe they don't ask about the other songs you play MAM, because they're famous while DATDBS is literally unknown. Thanks for making people discover this song!

Thanks a lot Bernie for these wonderful gifts. I love the three songs. I know "She Remembered" and "Cindy In The Wind" but what's the title of the third song?... By the way the titles put for those two last songs were 4 Audio Track and 15 Audio Track. You seemed to have taken them from a cd. Does it mean you've got at least 13 other exclusive songs?... Thanks and congratulations (for the site and the book)

Hi, if you've got iTunes (for Mac and PC now) you can use the iTunes Music Store, which has a lot of success. EC Definitive collection is available here, the whole album for $9.99 or each song for $0.99. There's also a part of the Raspberries's "capitol collectors series". 20 songs for $0.99 each. You see, it's cheaper!
