So many things die and fade away on the internet...I'm glad ericcarmen.com is still kickin' all these years!...Congratulations Bernie on 25 years of this site...And thanks Eric Carmen for making this site necessary.

Congratulations on 3 million hits!...That's more than Elvis ever had!

Happy Birthday, Eric!...May you find new magic in every day you live!

It's brilliant!...strong vocals on a soaring melody and some amazing harmonies...This is for REAL!...I love the chords in the melody...it reminds just a little of my EC favorite "Let's Pretend"....This song is not an easy song to sing...So kudos to Eric Carmen for keeping his voice in shape...Your age is only a number....and this song proves it...64 must be the new 24!

I suspect some of this extra interest in Go All The Way is because of the DVD/Blue Ray release of Dark Shadows...After hearing the cover by The Killers play over the end credits of the film a lot of people had to be wanting more of it...btw...the cover is so true to the original it had me wondering who was who on that track!

Eric...You're a musical genius and you always have been...This new development in your life is testimony to that. As for the new collection of your essential best...i'm looking forwward to playing some of the enhanced and supercharged...better than ever sounding tracks on my radio show... I'm late to this party as i was on hiatus out in the ether...glad i dropped in for a look.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Tommy!

Very good news indeed!...Congratulations on your continuing recovery!

In the spirit of The Ray Conniff Singers the Illinois Lottery ran this radio commercial at Christmas time this year which really nails the famous Conniff sound. http://adland.tv/radio/illinois-lottery-joy-someone-comforter-pizza-guy-60-usa

I just found this treasure trove of magic...It is so cool to hear these songs in their earliest form...And hear how Eric heard them in his original vision of what they could be.

Wendy...You set a wonderful example!...Giving people hope and restoring their faith in humanity can help to set up the first steps in someone's own personal recovery from whatever has set them back...You've done good!

I'm just hoping they don't turn it all hip hoppy.

I liked The Who's Super Bowl show...It was good to see them on the big stage.

I hate...hate... Seriously i do...I used to hate a lot of things...But i'm trying to pare my list to one...and just hate...hate.

That was AWESOME!...A fitting tribute!...Well done Wendy!

he's older than he was but we still love him just because he gave us all a place to go all us people in the know he's an Eric Carmen fan like a member of the band he's a hit with all the lasses with his nutritious milk mustaches and if you don't know by now the man's an adman for the cows it's not too late nor is it early for the man who we call Bernie HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Bernie!

I think Eric deserves the honor...not only because of the large catalog of timeless classics that he has written...But also because he has inspired others to write better quality songs...When he went solo he raised the bar for pop music compositions...He wrote songs that found an audience when they were first released...and continue to appeal to new generations of music fans...That's the work of a hall of famer to me.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Bernie!...and thanks for all that you do!

Happy Birthday, Don!

Just a little over a month from now...Go to this LINK for a complete chart of teams and report times.

He's got it bad...But he's still keeping his optimism intact...I hope he's gonna beat this.

The cold spell has finally broken in Southern Illinois...We finally made it past freezing yesterday...the first time it's been that warm since just before Christmas. Honestly i like real winter weather...and it's been absent in our area for the past 3 or 4 years...Last year the NWS issued a Tornado Watch for us just after Christmas...And we had several really intense thunderstorms in January...With the exception of a few really cold days...winters just haven't been that cold around here...It's been more like Georgia than Illinois...The frigid air we had the past couple of weeks is the real winter weather i've been craving...

Happy Birthday from a Cardinals fan! I hope your birthday is awesome!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Julie!...I hope your day is the best!

The information and insights on Eric Carmen's music...and the music of others that i have found here is priceless...Thank you Bernie for bringing this musical place to life...and keeping it living.
