"All By Myself" was released in 1975 as part of Carmen's self-titled debut album, but the catch was that he developed the track using an old recording by the Raspberries. The power ballad was developed shortly after Carmen left the power pop group, with him having reportedly written the solo section first over two months.
Alongside the concerto, a previous hit by the Raspberries, "Let's Pretend," was also used to develop the chorus of "All by Myself." According to SmoothRadio, Carmen felt the Raspberries track didn't go as far as he had hoped and thought, "I'll go back and steal from myself for this."
“There’s not nearly as much fuel in being happy as there is in being miserable,” said Carmen, according to American Songwriter. “Being miserable is a great catalyst for songwriting, for me anyway."
"All by Myself" would become a soft rock anthem and pop culture sensation that would be covered by multiple artists. One of the most recognizable covers was done by none other than Celine Dion in 1996. Her "out-of-this-world voice" was praised by critics as one of the few capable of lifting the song's emotional chords. Dion's cover would land her at No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and No.1 on the Adult Contemporary chart.
