That is sad. I used to love his Mr. Rogers parody on SNL.

I still listen to his “I love a rainy night” song. He’ll be missed.

Damn, that's ironic. Just yesterday, working out in the field in my truck listing to Sirius radio. heard 3 different EM songs on different stations in about 45 minutes and wondered in my head how he was doing.

It posted on the first try which was a miracle. Don't give a crap about anything outside the YouTube video. I think you need a shrink, dude.

"Shakin'" was the only song from him that I liked, and mainly because of the awesome lead guitar work.WestTexasCrude wrote: ↑Fri Sep 13, 2019 9:46 pm"Take me Home Tonight" with that female back ground singer and the sax rift is classic.

Re: One ticket to paradise
Agreed, put out like 11 albums, maybe 4-6 massive hits in the 80's. Not like McCartney passed or anything. Anyone know if any of his songs hit #1?FSchmertz wrote: ↑Fri Sep 13, 2019 10:20 pm"Shakin'" was the only song from him that I liked, and mainly because of the awesome lead guitar work.WestTexasCrude wrote: ↑Fri Sep 13, 2019 9:46 pm"Take me Home Tonight" with that female back ground singer and the sax rift is classic.

Dude was a legend. So many great songs and an incredibly underrated talent.

Re: One ticket to paradise
Thanks, I see his biggest hit (#4 was the one I posted). WTF- "Two Tickets" only hit #22. I find that hard to believe. My own research. Edit-22.

BTW, if you're wondering why that lady looks familiar, it's Patricia Kotero, better known as Apollonia, the lead in Prince's "Purple Rain."

Dude. I'm saying you are too young to even know who Eddie Money is. Stop it. You are looking more foolish by the day. I understand there may be some Lady Gaga/ Taylor Swift posts soon. More your speed.Reservoir Dog wrote: ↑Fri Sep 13, 2019 11:13 pmThe "historian" can't Google or do research.
