"All by Myself" is a power ballad written and performed by Eric Carmen in 1975. The verse borrows very heavily from the second movement (Adagio Sostenuto) of Sergei Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2 in C minor, Opus 18, which Carmen believed was in the public domain. Having found it was not, only after the record had been issued, Carmen had to come to an agreement with the Rachmaninoff estate.

- "All by Myself" is a power ballad written and performed by Eric Carmen in 1975. The verse borrows very heavily from the second movement (Adagio Sostenuto) of Sergei Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2 in C minor, Opus 18, which Carmen believed was in the public domain. Having found it was not, only after the record had been issued, Carmen had to come to an agreement with the Rachmaninoff estate. Early versions, therefore, only give writing credits to Carmen, but later versions also credit Rachmaninoff. The chorus borrows from a song "Let's Pretend" that Carmen had written for the Raspberries in 1973. Carmen's full version has an extended piano solo and lasts over seven minutes, although there is also an edited version at 4:22. The song was the first release from Carmen's first solo LP after leaving the power pop group, the Raspberries, and was originally recorded by the author and released in December, 1975 to great success. It reached number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, number 1 on Cash Box Top 100 Singles and number 12 in the UK. The single sold more than one million copies in the United States, and was certified gold by the RIAA in April 1976. In a 2006 poll for UK's Five programme Britain's Favourite Break-up Songs, Eric Carmen's version of this song was voted seventeenth. Carmen's original version has spawned numerous cover versions, by such artists as Céline Dion or Frank Sinatra. It should not be confused with the jazz standard of the same name, written by Irving Berlin and performed by Ella Fitzgerald. On his second solo LP, Boats Against the Current Carmen had a subsequent Top 40 hit entitled "She Did It," which was the antithesis of "All by Myself. " It is a happy answer to the loneliness and lovelessness described in this song and its melancholy follow-up, "Never Gonna Fall in Love Again."

- All by Myself è una power ballad scritta ed eseguita da Eric Carmen nel 1975. Il brano prende in prestito a piene mani il secondo movimento (Adagio Sostenuto) del Concerto per pianoforte e orchestra n. 2 di Sergei Rachmaninoff che Carmen credeva fosse di pubblico dominio. Soltanto dopo che il disco fu pubblicato, Carmen scoprì la verità e per evitare una causa, dovette trovare un accordo con i Rachmaninoff. La versione intera del brano ha un lungo assolo di pianoforte ed ha una durata di oltre sette minuti, mentre la versione pubblicata come singolo dura 4:22. Nel 2006, in un sondaggio condotto dal programma Britain's Favourite Break-up Songs, trasmesso su five All by Myself è stata votata al diciassettesimo posto. Il disco di Eric Carmen conobbe un enorme successo già nel 1975 alla sua prima pubblicazione. Infatti il singolo raggiunse la posizione numero due della Billboard Hot 100, e nell'aprile del 1976 ottenne il disco d'oro. La versione del brano di Carmen è stata reinterpretata numerose volte da artisti del calibro di Céline Dion o Frank Sinatra. Esiste una canzone dallo stesso titolo, che però si tratta di uno standard jazz scritto da Irving Berlin ed originariamente interpretato da Ella Fitzgerald.
