As a former mental health worker, I can say with certainty that the greatest curse in America is the condition of loneliness. Working in the field of suicide prevention, I learned by frequent contact with callers to suicide crisis lines that the single most prevalent reason they call for help is that they do not want to live alone anymore. A significant percentage of those who have families and friends feel a deep sense of loneliness. Many are wrongly diagnosed with depression when in reality they suffer from loneliness. Putting them in social settings is often not the answer. They need a soul mate, for lack of a better term. Someone to share their innermost fears and hopes. Eric's song could be the theme song for those whose lives are no longer meaningful because of their lack of connecting with some person with whom they can share a two-way, unselfish relationship. I have become such a lonely person. My love for life was destroyed by a selfish wife who used me, deceived me, and betrayed me over and over again. I never fell in love again because, as the lyrics in Eric's song express, I did not want to suffer that degree of emotional pain ever again. I thank the classical composer Rachmaninoff for the melody that Eric borrowed to write this song. Eric trained to be a concert pianist and he loved playing Rach's piano concertos. The main melody in this song was borrowed from Rachmaninoff's Symphony No. Two, Second Movement. Look it up on TH-cam and cry as you listen to the hauntingly beautiful melody of Movement 2 as it begins. Those of you reading this who are under the curse of loneliness, hang in there and keep reaching out, reaching out, reaching out until you connect with that right person. I wish you more luck and I am certain you can find you right partner. Keep believing! I am happy now and having a very young partner.
Wow!!! This is gorgeous! And the piano accompaniment so close to the original. Absolutely the best cover of all! Thank you so much! You've made my day. By the way, what piano is that?
I can picture myself playing this and having a bottle of wine crying hysterically their is just so much shoul and passion in this song maybe the piano makes everything 100 times more amazing yes yes it does
Beautiful and very sensitive arrangement and interpretation. Your classical training has paid-off. You've prompted me to go and listen to some Rachmaninov! Thank you so much.
Emotiva hasta las lágrimas, el mejor cover que he escuchado de ésta canción, ni una sola palabra; sólo las notas que caen en mi cara como gotas de lluvia en una tarde fría, recordándome el frío de una triste soledad. El Soundtrack de la película de mi vida.
I am enjoying this deeply moving song, while eating my oatmeal, all by myself. Ahhhh. Carry me away from all of the loneliness, with the sweetest of melodies. So good for the soul. I think I will re-listen to this, later, when I slowly open the freezer door, and eat all of the pistachio ice cream. Each bite, a little more melancholy than the last. "All By Myyyyyyyseeeeeeelllllllf"! Thanks, Vika.
Your performances is absoluty wonderfull . Im pianist too and i would Like can play this theme with my singer but Alls performances in internet aré incomplet, and not hace Alls botes you play in the sólo . Where you looq this theme? Can you pass me original score ? Thanks Because you aré a beautifuld pianist and great pianist .
Excellent performance. So pleased that you a )included the superb middle 'piano solo' section and b) weren't tempted as so many are, to copy the Celine Dion melody shift at the end. I wouldn't dream of criticizing such a talent as Dion but Carmens' original ending is just so much more effective imo
When I was young I never needed anyone And making love was just for fun Those days are gone Living alone I think of all the friends I've known But when I dial the telephone Nobody's home All by myself Don't want to be all by myself anymore All by myself Don't want to live all by myself anymore Hard to be sure Sometimes I feel so insecure And love so distant and obscure Remains the cure All by myself Don't want to be all by myself anymore All by myself Don't want to live all by myself anymore When I was young I never needed anyone And making love was just for fun Those days are gone All by myself Don't want to be all by myself anymore All by myself Don't want to live all by myself anymore All by myself Don't want to be all by myself anymore All by myself Don't want to live all by myself anymore All by myself Don't want to be all by myself anymore
Really really really really GOOD! I liked it a lot... you have real talent. God gave.you the gift of playing the piano and you would make an awesome worship leader :)
How envious I am that you play this wonderful piece of music so beautifully. It must give you enormous pleasure....all power to you and thank you for sharing your talent with us mere mortals. Kel
Kel Wright We could never keep up with her grace and beauty!!! Since you appreciate fine music... Check out on You Tube..Eva Cassidy her version of "Over the Rainbow" (like you've never heard it) Beth Nielsen Chapman (any)("Look" is great) and Karla Bonoff (Live) You will find some new talent to appreciate. I listen to them on mp3 and Bose earphones day and nite all the time. It's my life; my music that I can't live without. Best wishes...TJMc near Chicago, Illinois, USA
all by myself brought tears to my eyes. It is always a privilege to listen to play what ever song you choose I will always hold it in my heart. Love johnjohn
.hey viki i love your performance .i understand that you made this unique cover by yourself .i wanted to ask if you made scores for the cover .and if you do , can you send me them or direct me to a web with upload scorest .thank you .Hope for an answer
this woman plays every song I ever loved and plays the music dreamily and perfect...
The best cover ever. The stylistic exercise that takes up Rachmaninoff's work is simply applied aesthetics. Bravissima. Greetings from italy
Wow, thank you!
Are you freaking kidding me???????????? She was the whole damn band,wow I am in awe.

De verdad; música que llega al corazón sin pasar por la cabeza

Fantastisches Klavierspiel, sehr emotional. Hochachtung!!!!!!!!!!!
When I was young
I never needed anyone
And making love was just for fun
Those days are gone
Living alone
I think of all the friends I've known
But when I dial the telephone
Nobody's home
All by myself
Don't want to be all by myself anymore
All by myself
Don't want to live all by myself anymore
Hard to be sure
Sometimes I feel so insecure
And love so distant and obscure
Remains the cure
All by myself
Don't want to be all by myself anymore
All by myself
Don't want to live all by myself anymore
When I was young
I never needed anyone
And making love was just for fun
Those days are gone
All by myself
Don't want to be all by myself anymore
All by myself
Don't want to live all by myself anymore
All by myself
Don't want to be all by myself anymore
All by myself
Don't want to live all by myself anymore
All by myself
Don't want to be all by myself anymore
Excellent!
So amazing :) great cover like all
you are so awesome........love it
