Eric Carmen, 70’s songwriter, dies at 74

Eric Carmen was a singer songwriter from the 70’s and 80’s that wrote some really iconic songs. I KNOW you’ve heard “All By Myself”. It’s at the bottom of the page if you need a refresher.

Eric died at the age of 74, according to a posting from his wife Amy.

“It is with tremendous sadness that we share the heartbreaking news of the passing of Eric Carmen,” she wrote. “Our sweet, loving and talented Eric passed away in his sleep, over the weekend. It brought him great joy to know, that for decades, his music touched so many and will be his lasting legacy. Please respect the family’s privacy as we mourn our enormous loss. ‘Love Is All That Matters… Faithful and Forever.’”

This song is so classic and sad.
