Guy doesn’t get enough credit for his amazing songwriting as well as singing ability. He often goes unnoticed when mentioning some of the best singers and songwriters of all time in country music. To this day he’s still one of my favorites and I love listening to his music.

He was born a songbird. What a beautiful voice he was blessed with and shared with us all. Forever beloved. ❤ 🙏

Eddie was a major force in BOTH Country and pop music. His voice, stage presence and musicianship remain unmatched. I agree totally that he didn’t get the credit he deserved as a songwriter and performing. As a former disc jockey, I never had the opportunity to meet him, but I heard from more than a few people that he was kind and endearing person. His music will live on forever and bring smiles to us all with his talent. Miss you, Eddie!

Wow! I had no idea that he passed away shortly after I saw him in concert in Nevada (State Line) around 1996. R.I.P. Mr. Eddie Rabbit. A really great song writer and performer!

Eddie was a phenomenal artist!!!

Seemed like a beautiful man with a big ❤️

Love Eddie singing R.I.P. from Galway ireland with love xx❤❤❤

I searched long and hard for a song my father performed when he was 30, and I was 5. I'm now 45. My dad had a very modern and eclectic taste for classic rock and country music, apparently. He was known as a singer in our South asian indian community, but outside of christian indian music, he enjoyed the likes of deep purple, creedence revival, VH, and other 8 tracks I found. It was common in the week for him to meet with his friends who all played instruments, and he often sang impromptu. I held on to these memories and especially this song bc it would be in 1984 that my dad died at 30 and i was 5. I finally found the cover song he performed and enjoyed....it was driving my life away. It has been in my playlist ever since, and when I want to remember my dad, I'll jam it. I didn't know he passed from cancer, and my condolences go to his family and fans. I lost my baby sister to pan can at the age of 43 just last year, and she also enjoyed this song bc it made us feel closer to our dad. Thanks for shedding light on this great singer and his rise and success in creating poetry in music. #fcukcancer

I was listening to his music as young girl that was around 6 year's old and i really enjoyed his music it made my day

I love the music of Eddie, Even I had the complete LP collection. Nice to know that some people likes his music

Hard to believe he’s been gone 25 years. He wrote three songs that Elvis recorded. I’ve been to his gravesite. I really enjoy his music. So handsome.

One of my favorite singer..loved his great songs with his golden vocal

My first concert. Eddie Rabbitt and The Righteous Brothers(circa 1983) I remember The Righteous Brothers( I’m assuming the bass in their voice) being so loud, I covered my ears in my Aunts and Moms lap. But boy oh boy when Eddie took the stage I was smitten with him and music! My dear Momma loved Eddie Rabbit and now both of them have passed on. I love coming across this stuff because it reminds me of days gone by and my dear Momma! ❤ 7:04

I didn’t even know he passed away until this year when I heard “I Love a Rainy Night” on American top 40 on iheart radio. I loved his music.

Going down the Rabbitt Hole ..// driving my life away was Super....Thanks

His songs are some of my favorites over 50+ years. 🎉

exellent docu. Rabbit was a good man. i had no idea. time well spent. Rabbit will be missed.

Hi, I am so sad he passed away so young. I loved his music, but never realised he isn't with us anymore.

What about his hit songs "I can't help myself" and "We can't go on living like this". I remeber hearing these two songs played on the radio many times over

A friend of mine Bill who was Eddie's Road Manager also played with him at certain times. Bill and I went to the same school as I did, he was a year older than me, but he stayed to the end with Eddie, Bill took it badly when Eddie passed. he called me the day he died, it is so hard losing a good friend, In fact when Eddie was trying to think of the name of a song he worked on and they were on tour, Bill was talking to him about a plan as to where they were going and then Bill said to him" ohh on second thought" we could do something else and before Bill started to tell him Eddie said " that's it!" and Bill asked "what" he said the title of my next song "On Second Thought" I will always remember that!

I loved Eddie Rabbit ❤ R. I. P.

I worked many years for Eddie.There are several things tht are faults in this video starting with his Fathers name. He was very good to my kids & I. His Dad THOMAS EDWARD lived in our home til he passed. We miss Eddie so very much & will forever miss him.

Sad he is gone. He sounds like a good man. Too many good people are gone too quickly.

His songs and his voice are so soothing and beautiful. This artist should get more credit for his music excellence.

I love his songs and Crystal Gale. The best duo. RIP.

I dated a man who look just like Eddie Eddie was my favorite country singer he was a Beautiful man.

Epic episode as always

Loved Eddie Rabbit, songs were so easy to sing to.

Lovely video. From Ireland ☘️

As a kid in the early 90's I rode my big wheel in the driveway. We blared his music. To surprise me my parents took me to one of his concerts in Youngstown, Ohio where I got to meet him. He died the following year. So many memories that mean so much.

He died so soon like my favorite Beatle George Harrison both so handsome and died from the same cancer❤️Rest in Eternal Peace Mr. Eddie Rabbit❤️

💫💖EDDIE RABBIT💖💫 Xoxo ~Love you Eddie😊

He was so good looking !!

So sad when he passed will be missed❤

Thanks!

I loved Eddie driving my life away was my favorite.

The youngsters in here probably don't remember Harlan Howard. Harlan wrote more than 4000 songs and 100 of them cracked the top 10. Now how's that for song writing I bought my gf an Eddie Rabbitt album for her birthday and it made her day.

I loved this one Dave. I knew "drivin' my life away" and Rainy Night, But I never knew he wrote Kentucky Rain. One of my Elvis favorites. Seemed like a very decent man. Sorry it took me awhile to get to this. Selling my house. Thanks for the upload, my friend !

Such an amazing talent, taken too soon! R.I.P. EDDIE

I love he’s music so sad 🙏🙏

EddiE rabbit we will miss you rest in peace

What an awesome artist 😊

My sub ten year old self was a big Eddie fan, before I went rock and metal in my tastes, which still last to this day. Still a soft spot for Eddie tunes tho...the little headline "Rabbitt bitten' by monkey" is something else LOL

Good singer, rip to him

Your so correct he is a fantastict singer

Man i love Eddie Rabbit

Thank you Eddie, now I know.

THE BEST!!

when his child died..it destroyed him

American Boy was on The Jersey Boy album in 1990

He has a beautiful voice better than garth brooks

Edward was quite a character. 🇺🇸

Why isn't he noticed in his beautiful music's that he wrote and sung it doesn't make any sense because he should be in the fame as well as other country singers unfair to him y'all should be ashamed of yourself

Love

When i was young i hated country nusic other than eddie rabbitt and john anderson

He's nothing like Elvis at all. Another man lost to Lung Cancer in their mid 50's I hear that so often. And it's just so sad.

He passed away at the age I am now

My family Dr looked just like him back in 70s now he's retired (my Dr) girls would play hooky just to go see him..lol

Please change title 'Tragic ending...' life happens.

lifeaway rainynight

I always loved Eddie Rabbit and his music especially the song Just you and I with crystal Gayle.I thought they was married.Rest In Peace Rabbit .

Look like CAT STEVENS

I don't know how he could have been compared to Elvis Presley. Eddie was a proficient guitarist and a brilliant songwriter. Elvis was neither of those things. Elvis was a performer - not a musician or songwriter. Eddie, on the other hand, had real chops as a singer, player, songwriter - AND performer. He was the real deal.

Pop not a country singer

he is hairy like a wolfman.

to long

That was a very HANDSOME. MAN . didn't know he was dead so Sorry RIP
