Now that Eric is gone, kindly don't forget how much he was mocked in the press and by half of America when he went and had a lot of plastic surgery, started drinking heavily in a downward personal tailspin and lived in a weird kind of anonymity. Then, when he came out in support of Donald Trump, he was cancelled by virtually everyone who suddenly misses him so deeply.. Don't forget the pain he endured a lot in the past 10 years. Don't forget.

Eric Carmen said the following -" "All By Myself" and "Never Gonna Fall In Love Again" were inspired by different Rachmaninoff pieces. I think for "Never Gonna Fall In Love Again" , the theme for the chorus was from Rachmaninoff's Second Symphony, whereas the theme for the verse of "All By Myself" was from Rachmaninoff's second Piano Concerto No. 3. You know, I think I used up most of his good stuff, but I'm always still looking. When I was reading a biography of Rachmaninoff, I found that both melodies that I had taken he had actually gotten from other sources. One he heard from an Italian organ grinder playing, and the other a friend gave him. I thought, geez, what a nice friend." 1997
