Singer Eric Carmen Passes Away at 74

Sad news in the music world as legendary singer Eric Carmen has passed away at the age of 74. Known for his iconic hits like "All by Myself" and "Hungry Eyes," Carmen's music touched the hearts of many.

In a heartfelt announcement on his website, Carmen's wife, Amy Carmen, shared the news of his peaceful passing in his sleep over the weekend. She expressed how much joy it brought him to know that his music had a lasting impact on so many people.

While the cause of death has not been disclosed, Carmen leaves behind a rich musical legacy. Hailing from Ohio, he rose to fame as the lead vocalist of the Raspberries before embarking on a successful solo career.

His discography includes not only his popular solo tracks but also hits like "Go All The Way," "Never Gonna Fall in Love Again," and "Almost Paradise." Fans and fellow musicians alike are mourning the loss of this talented artist.

Among those paying tribute to Carmen is Kiss frontman Paul Stanley, who shared his condolences in a social media post.

Eric Carmen's music will continue to live on, reminding us that "Love Is All That Matters...Faithful and Forever."

Eric, renowned for penning radio favorites such as "All By Myself," was a genuine rocker deep down, according to Stanley. The essence of McCartney and Steve Marriott could be heard in his vocals. The Raspberries, a band known for their energetic live performances, had the pleasure of sharing the stage with us. Their records were a personal favorite of mine.
