Now check out Ronnie Spectors Be my Baby(1963). That's her song in the chorus. Ronnie and the Ronnettes. Ronnie still looked good at 43

Eddie Money is not a one-hit wonder. 😄

Ok I think I read through most of the comments and can't believe no one has mentioned what was so cool about this song. "Ronnie" is of course Ronnie Specter and her terrible marriage to Phil Specter is the subject of a movie. But what I recall hearing on the radio was that Eddie had a very altruistic reason for this song and it's arrangement. Although "Be My Baby" in 1963, and her work as lead of The Ronettes should have left her reasonably set for life, Phil in addition to abusing her, also stole all her earnings. Here it was the 80s and she was very close to broke. He wrote this song and had her sing in the chorus so that she would earn part of the royalties. He saved her from near homelessness.

NOT a 1 hit wonder. And google Ronnie Spector…

She is Ronnie Specter from the 60's!! She was married to the famed music producer/murderer Phil Specter!!! Eddie IS NOT a 1 hit wonder!!! He was a former NYPD officer!!

That is Ronnie Spector. “Just like Ronnie sang”

Eddie had 23 songs in the Billboard Hot 100, with six in the Top 20, and two reached top 10. Loved his music!

Love Eddie Money!! 🙌 Two tickets to Paradise, I wanna go back, Walk on Water, & Baby hold on are all bangers!! That's Ronnie Spector, former nember of The Ronettes singing Be my little baby!

Two Tickets to Paradise was probably his biggest song. He was NOT a one-hit wonder.

That Ronnie was the woman on the video. Be my Little Baby was her song from 1963 The Ronettes

One hit wonder? I think not. In 1987, Money was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance for "Take Me Home Tonight". "I Wanna Go Back" and "Endless Nights"-two other singles from the Can't Hold Back album-peaked at No. 14 and No. 21, respectively. In 1988, Money released his Nothing to Lose album, which featured the Top 10 hit "Walk on Water" and the Top 40 hit "The Love in Your Eyes". Sadly we lost him way too soon.

Take Me Home Tonight" is a song by American rock singer Eddie Money. It was released in August 1986 as the lead single from his album Can't Hold Back. The song's chorus interpolates the Ronettes' 1963 hit "Be My Baby", with original vocalist Ronnie Spector providing uncredited vocals and reprising her role.

Eddie Money is incredible! One of my fav song is shakin'

I think I’m In Love- Eddie Money. BP another banger from the early 80s from Eddie Money. Great reaction to this classic!

One of my all time favorites!! Eddie was a NY city police officer for 2 years before he decided to pursue music. So many hits, I think he took the right path!

RIP to both of these music legends. Sadly, they have both left us. I'd do a deep dive into Eddie Money's catalogue. Shakin and Gimme Some Water are both great! So is Two Tickets to Paradise and Baby Hold On!

The Ronnettes sang a great song in the 60’s called “Be My Baby” and Ronnie Specter was the lead singer.

RIP Eddie - one of my all time favorites, check out his song "I Wanna Go Back". Bittersweet!

Ronnie Spector is a legend. Her song Be my Baby was HUGE. Her girl group the Ronettes had the kids screaming in 1963.

Ronnie Spector from the Ronettes check out Be My Baby!

RIP Eddie

He had 11 top 40 hits. So, no, not a one hit wonder. He also had a reality show, Real Money in 2017ish that ran for 2 seasons. Unfortunately he died in 2019 of esophagus cancer. He was a heavy drinker and smoker of all things. He was 70. He and his wife had 5 children.

Two Tickets To Paradise, Walk On Water, I Wanna Go Back, Gimme Some Water(he said at a concert this song was a regional hit), others as well!

Ronnie Spectre from the Ronnettes is the voice over female. Fire!

Sadly Eddie Money is one of those artists who around for a long time and you don't remember how many songs he had. When he died, 3 of his songs came to mind but then more kept coming to me. I remember realizing that he had a deceptively strong career that just kind of flew under the radar throughout my life.

I love this song and Ronnie Spectre is awesome ❤

I've never seen somebody so obsessed about somebody who they'll never meet for smoking!

Two Tickets To Paradise is another hit of his if you're wanting to check him out.

Eddie was so underrated, he's got a lot of really great tunes

I loved eddy money.. I actually liked his later songs better.. very deep meanings.. "I wanna go back" is one of my favorites.

Eddie Money has some bangers!!

Kevin James had him on an episode of King of Queens on tv. He was so funny.

"Just like Ronnie sang".... Ronnie specter she sang be my baby and in this song. So he was referencing her most famous song as she sang in this song. I think you will love Be my Baby by the Ronettes. I literally just had this conversation with my husband as we watched this video. He literally said who's Ronnie and I explained this to him. He didn't know either.

Now you need to listen to Be my Little Baby, by Ronnie Spector and the Ronettes!

I came to your channel for reactions to some great songs. Now I enjoy almost as much watching you have to state disclaimers 😂 for almost all of your observations and opinions. That's the state of things and don't worry, not all of your viewers are super sensitive nitpickers. Love your energy!

TWO TICKETS TO PARADISE! ❤ Banger‼️ BABY HOLD ON TO ME ❤ Banger‼️ 😊😊 More than one hit 😊👍🏼✌🏼

MUST react to “Shakin’” and “Gimme Some Water”

Eddie Money has contributed to a LOT of movie and television soundtracks. He was a staple of the 80's.

Gotta check out Two Tickets to Paradise

I Always Have and Always Will LOVE Eddie Money....Met and Talked With Him Twice.....My Fave !!!

One of my favorite songs of his is - I Think I'm In Love. Great song! Also, another great song by him is If I Could Walk On Water.

Friend of mine used to jam in a garage in the early 70's with Eddie Mahoney, before he became Eddie Money. Yes, that's his real name. Also in that garage jamming was Martha Davis of the MOTELS.. Good times in Berkeley and Richmond, CA back in the day. I had the privilege of seeing Eddie in concert in San Jose, CA about 5 months before he passed away.. His very rough and wild lifestyle when he was a young rocker finally caught up with him physically.. What a great loss to the music world.. By the way when he says "just like Ronnie sang" he's referencing Ronnie Spector (walking in the video) of the female group The Ronettes, who had a hit song called "Be My Baby" with the lyrics "be my little baby" found within. Go watch Be MY Baby by "The Ronettes" and you will recognize the voice in this video..

I saw Eddie Money in concert back in 1986. What a great concert. He has many great songs...!!!

I Wanna go Back is my favorite Essie Money but this song brings me back to high school days! The whole vibe is Miami Vice. Ronnie Spector was such a beauty!

He has many songs. Here's 3 of my favorites 1. Shaken 2. Think I'm in love 3. If I could walk on water

He a rabbit hole you need to check out

RIP Eddie. He had several top 40 hits and was a staple of the 80’s.

I love this song and I love Eddie Money’s music! That’s Ronnie Spector from The Ronnettes singing with him! “Be My Baby” was a big hit for The Ronnettes! Check out his hit”I Wanna Go Back”!❤❤

I can't believe that this is YOUR first time hearing this song! This was very popular in the 80's. Awesome reaction to an iconic song! 🤙👍

Eddy Money was the Band that opened the Outdoor Concert Season every year until his passing at the DTE concert stadium near Detroit otherwise known as PINE KNOB . He is missing by millions!

Baby Hold on is a great song

Ronnie is from the Ronettes. "Be My Baby" from 1963. It was super exciting to have her do this song and video with him. Eddie is definitely not a 1 hit wonder. Hit 2 Tickets to Paradise next. You probably have heard that one, too. Baby Hold On To Me is also cool. Don't worry about Ronnie smoking. She wouldn't have been into you, either. 🤣🤣

❤❤❤❤❤ Love his music. R.I.P. to Eddie and Ronnie. Ronnie Spector released "Be My Baby" in 1963 with the Ronettes. Eddie released this song in 1986. My favorite song is "Trinidad", but he has so many great songs like, "I Think I'm In Love", "I Wanna Go Back", "Shakin'", "Baby Hold On" and of course, "Two Tickets To Paradise".

She was in her forties here, so beautiful

Ronnie Spector was the lead singer of the Ronnetes. She was married to Phil Spector, the record producer. Her big song was Be My Baby. She’s singing parts of it here.❤

The Ronettes sang a song "Be My Little Baby". Ronnie Specter was the lead singer. They were a 60s girl band.

This was the type of music I was fortunate enough to grow up on... What great times!! Glad you enjoyed it!!! 😊😊😊

Eddie Money and Ronnie Specter were the bomb!! This was a fantastic song!! Great reaction, BP!

Ronnie was in the Ronettes they sang Be my baby in the 60’s. I wanna go back and shakin’ are my favorite Eddie Money songs.. ❤️❤️❤️

This was awesome with Ronnie Specter! She is super! I randomly saw Eddie Money in a total dive bar in San Leandro CA a day or two before his Two Tickets To Paradise came out. I think it was called the Tiki Lounge lol.. The women's bathroom LITERALLY had a golden bejeweled step up throne. Damn I'm old lol 65.

Love this song! Eddie Money is awesome! Love your reaction!

I LOVE this song - I'm usually all about the music and this song has a fantastic beat! It's awful to admit this, but I never pay enough attention many song lyrics when the beat is so powerful, so hearing your analyses are so enlightening. Eddie was definitely not a one-hit-wonder. Two Tickets to Paradise is another great song. Fun fact - his real last name is Mahoney.😀 Have you reacted to anything by Steve Winwood? "Higher Love," and "Valerie." are my favorites. Great songs, too.😀

"Baby Hold On", "Two Tickets to Paradise", "Think I'm in Love", "Shakin'" are others by Eddie Money you should definitely give a listen to. Early '80's were great years for music!

This is one of the smartest songs ever written.To take an old song and place it in a new one and get the singer from the old one to sing on it.....GREAT !!! I saw him a few times and he would come out and sing a few songs then thank the crowd for being there and letting him live his dream to be a rock star.

Excellent 80s tune .. on my dance playlist .. suggest I wanna go back

The folks from the 80's called. They want their Money back. Eddie Money.😛

"Take Me Home Tonight" is a song by American rock singer Eddie Money. It was released in August 1986 as the lead single from his album Can't Hold Back. The song's chorus interpolates the Ronettes' 1963 hit "Be My Baby", with original vocalist Ronnie Spector providing uncredited vocals and reprising her role. (from Wikipedia)

Dude!!! You were checking out a cougar!!!! 😂 😂😂😂😂😂

Shakin' is my favorite Eddie money song

Ronnie Spector was a member female trio The Ronnets. Some of their biggest songs are Be My Little Baby, Baby I Love You, The Best Part of Breaking Up, Do I Love You, and Walking, in the Rain.

Eddie was a hit machine. Many great songs. My favorite is Shakin. RIP Money Man.

She is a professional singer. Her name is Ronnie Spector. She founded the group The Ronettes. She passed on in 2022. They were well known in the 60's. Her career was revived when she was featured on Eddy Moneys song & video " Take Me Home Tonight " in 1986.

went to High School in Nashville with his wife. Great guy and dad . He passed a little while back many great songs!! Do Shaken !!! 2 Tickets to Paradise !!! Great dad with 4 or 5 kids !

Lol, Eddie Money has tons of great songs. Love Outfield too.

Eddie Money wasn't a one hit wonder. He used to be known as Officer Edward Mahoney of the NYPD. The lady singing on the song with him was Ronnie Specter from the group The Ronnettes and she was previously married to Phil Specter. Both of them were great, but both of them are now deceased unfortunately.

Love this song!!

Love Eddie. Two tickets to paradise is a banger too. Great reaction as usual my friend and Peace out 🙏✌️☮️

The Big Crash and Love the way you love me also great songs, RIP Eddie Money

Ronnie Spector was an American singer, actress, writer, and music department member. She was the lead singer of the 1960s girl group The Ronettes, known for their hits "Be My Baby" and "Baby, I Love You". The group's style included pencil skirts, thick mascara, and sky-high beehives. Passed away Jan 2022. Amy Winehouse took her look from Ronnie.

Sonny Bono and Cher were among the backing vocalists on the original 1963 recording of Be My Baby.

Shaking is another banger from him

Eddie Money's SHAKIN' is great!!! must listen

Eddie was good, and I am saying this is as a person who had a weird "Eddie Money" thing going in my life. Growing up in the Bay Area, I had been to many concerts. Bill Graham was an amazing promoter and used to put fantastic concerts together in Oakland and San Francisco. His "Days on the Green" were legendary and went on for years. Bill doted on Eddie Money, and threw him into many concert line-ups. It wasn't until I moved to San Diego and talking to friends that I realised I had seen Eddie Money 9 times and never once went to " see" him in concert. It bothered me so much that I decided to make it a point to see Cheap Trick 10 times. Just so Eddie wouldn't have that title of most concerts. The funny thing is it later got to the point where it was almost a tie between Cheap Trick and Eddie Money for my most concerts. I was at a Padre game tailgating, and my friend said there was some stage with live music going on for free in the parking lot. We decided to walk over and check it out. Sure enough, it's freaking Eddie Money playing for free in the parking lot. I couldn't believe it! I eas so frustrated, 10 times! RIP Eddie, you were great, drove me crazy, finally saw Cheap Trick more times than you, but you were good. RIP Ronnie! ❤

great in concert! had the opportunity to see him on Naval Station Bremerton supporting the MWR of the base waaaaaaay back in about 99!

😂 Well I'm a smoker unfortunately but he isn't wrong 😂. I still like me anyways

Eddie was the summer opener every year for decades at Pine Knob music theater in Michigan. Always a banger! And in no way a one hit wonder. Dude had So.Many.Hits!

He was amazing live!❤❤❤❤

Eddie Money was a beginning of summer tradition in my state of Michigan. Beginning in 1992, Eddie Money opened the summer concert season at Pine Knob in Michigan for 27 consecutive years.

Baby Hold On To Me off his debut album is one to plug into. His guitarist Jimmy Lyon is highly under-rated. He later was in the Greg Kihn Band and also played with Tina Turner. "Ronnie" is Ronnie Spector, who had a 60's hit song, "Be My Baby" with her all-girl band The Ronettes. Born Veronica Yvette Greenfield in 1942, she was also made famous by her marriage to music mogul Phil Spector in 1968 and divorce in 1974. Her career slid, and this song helped her revive her career with the reference in the song. Eddie Money also featured his family in a reality TV show called Real Money in 2018 on AXS TV. He passed away in 2019 of esophageal cancer.

Ronnie is Ronnie Spector from the Ronettes, a female group. She is the woman singing on the song. She is considered the original rock and roll bad girl prototype. Her autobiography is called Be My Baby and The Ronettes also had a hit by that name. The Ronettes had some really great music.

LOVE Eddie Money! I love this song because it makes me want to dance! 😂. ❤ it was actually in a dream I had where one of my best friends and I were dancing around the room and singing Ronnie’s part LOL - when I need to feel good I just think about that dream and I feel like I’ve spent time with my bestie again. Eddie has so many great tunes!

When this song came out, Ronnie was 43 years old...and still rockin' that phenomenal figure, and showcasing those signature moves!

I saw Eddie Money live. He opened for Kiss. That was a weird combo, but back in the 80s, there were all kinds of weird concert combos here in Jacksonville, Fl. I mean, one time Willie Nelson opened for Van Halen, and it sold out in just a few days.

Ronnie.... is famous singer from the 1960's girl group The Ronettes who had a hit song "Be My Baby"... this song Take Me Home Tonight (Be My Baby) was almost like a mash up... the female was singing the melody of her hit song from the 1960s

Seven top 40 hits an incredible performer live a legend😊

Eddie Money had a few hits in the late 70s that got a lot of regular airplay. Baby Hold On, Two Tickets to Paradise, Can't Keep a Good Man Down, Maureen, just to name a few.

❤❤❤ Pegasus Eddie Money is the Man!! Ronnie is from Motowns Ronettes! Check out Shaking Apollonia from Purple Rain is in it. Also Two Tickets To Pariadise! I’ve seen Eddie in concert Many many times. He never disappointed! RIP Eddie. He passed back in 2019. Love him always. Oh Fun Fact he used to be a Cop in NY back in the 70’s. I don’t recall this song in any movies… Love to you and family Pegasus❤❤

STILL an absolute banger!!

Never was really into eddie money. Saw him at speed street in charlotte. He was drunk as a skunk but he never missed a beat. He was amazing. He is on my favorites list now. Rip. Eddie.

A Number One national hit. Originally, Martha Davis, lead singer for The Motels, very big at the time, was supposed to song the 'be my little baby' part. Eddie said..."we have to get Ronnie Spector", and they did. Ronnie sang lead for the Ronettes, an early 60's girl group whose biggest hit was "Be My Baby" (another #1 song) where she, famously, sang "be my little baby". Made the song. BTW, Eddie was former NYPD.
