A truly professional performance! This clip shows one of the things I've always liked about Eric's style, he's always sung from his heart no matter what the song, giving it everything he has to give! I may be a male but like Lalitzmeeeeee below said, this song has brought tears to my eyes and put a lump in my throat on occasions in the past. But not today all you spiteful mongrels here!

I love how the band got lost in the music, the drummer got taken by surprise, cool. I got lost in it too, this is what great music does!

I like his voice, what's wrong with it? Celine Dion is a great singer, but she is not truly alone, and can't touch this performance. When the sad day comes and she is all alone, then the song will be hers fully.

Best female rendition was from charice.

I can't believe that people complain Eric used some of a classical musician's stuff. Give me a break. If he sampled these guys, then had someone write the the actual tune/lyrics for All By Myself, then slag him. Brilliant is one word for this video. I've got more.

@stanleygsf Who the hell cares if there are minor problems or errors?? Are you sick? Write a song like this, then perform it decades later with this sort of passion, then I'll talk to you about the fact that you flubbed a couple of parts. Get a life.

The always underappreciated, underrecognized pure musical genius of Eric Carmen.

WOW! I am impressed! I can see (and HEAR) that he's obviously NOT one of those who should have just accepted retiring. Amazing, indeed! I saw him back in the mid 70s. He opened for America - and was just as entertaining. At the time, he was riding high on this hit. He started out by doing some mellow stuff, then all of a sudden one spotlight was focused one of the guitarists, and he slammed out the opening chords of "Go All The Way." The audience went nuts!

As the "Piano concerto No. 2" Rachmaninof

That's how it's done kids, with no auto tune crap!
