What it is
"All by Myself" is a power ballad by Eric Carmen, released in December 1975 as the first single from his self-titled debut solo album after he left Raspberries. The verse adapts a melody from the second movement of Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2. Carmen described its subject, loneliness, as an emotion everyone has felt at some point, and kept the lyrics deliberately simple; it reached No.
