Welcome to the Letterman RUclips Channel, home to all your favorite clips from Late Night and Late Show - as well as conversations with the writers, producers and performers who helped make it all happen. The language may strike you as quaint & flowery, the clothing comically lacey & ornate - but that’s how things were back in this colorful and now bygone era.
Ronnie Specter was incredible and so was Edie money rest in peace both of your beautiful souls
AMEN!
She rocked the hell out of the early 60s! And Eddie got his wish about singing with her! ✌
❤
Legends of the music industry. RIP

This song never gets old, 80’s 4 ever 💙
If i could turn back time I would find my way back to the 80s I don’t know why I did the things I did but if I had a chance I’d do it all over again, my very first bootleg was of Eddie Money and it was this tour from Pittsburgh and the tape didn’t last very long I believe I played it until it came out of my cassette deck on it’s own
@@randallreid424 hey man those were the days but you gotta move forward or you will stagnate. don't stagnate brother.
It sure doesn't
@@jamesha175 I agree thank you
ah remember being 17 in 85.. those were the days 😊
There will never be another Ronnie. What a voice, what a sweetheart.

Shame this was really last big hit he had I think.
Well said ❤
@@robertpusateri2345I don't know if it was his last big hit but all of his music will always be a hit . Incredible musician. Modern but old school at the same time
Ronnie Spector was the absolute definition of the phrase "In a class by herself." Never was before, and never again will be anyone like her.
Ronnie's Voice was so unique. No one sounded like her. Absolutely legendary sound.
Uh ? If you say so ... I mean She sounds like I'd imagine a 50 plus year old smoker to sound to be honest .Same with eddie money. Not saying I don't like the song as it is a song from my childhood and brings back so many memories .However There are and have been far better duets in the history of rock and roll music .
@@deadred80 not really. Also, what a rando comment to put here. You’re like a duet historian?
The suit, the cap, the hair, the sax, the exuberance, quintessential 80's.
And the cigarette at the intro! Lol
@@ElleDeeFonzarellino wonder he is dead
The lip syncing
Don't forget the shoulder pads in both guys and girls coats
@@OrbitalTrails This was live. No lip-syncing. It had too many imperfections to be the original studio recording. It sounded good though. Live band, live vocals.
Thank you Eddie for giving this Angel the chance to spread her wings again. RIP both.
Live performances on Letterman were the best ever. Thank you, Paul Schaffer !
AGREED,1'000 %!!!
Paul added something good 👍 thanks
🇨🇦
Paul Shaffer is definitely a cool and amazing performer in his own right
@@randallreid424swing man, swing
Two huge musical talents now sadly gone. Rest in peace, Eddie and Ronnie.

And now, David Sanborn. 😢
Sure do miss seeing Eddie live. Always a great live performer! Rock In Peace Eddie and Ronnie.
He was so good!
I saw Eddy open up for santana in 1979. Great performances. 👍
I used to work at a sports bar in the early 00's and we'd get a couple of 80's acts rolling through. Caught The Motels, Eddie Money, and Night Ranger. It was a fun job.

Yes! Saw him live in 1987! Great show.
Just after I turned 60 last year, I have realized that most of my best years are behind me and time is closing to an end soon. Looking at these two great artists sing is a great joy. They remind me of those good old days. Sadly they are gone now. Life is truly short. Don’t waste time thinking it will last. It don’t. Get all the things done that you want done. Travel, learn a new language. Experience all that you need to do. Because in the end, time is all we have left and for some it’s not enough. RIP Eddie and Ronnie..
Well said my friend.
True & well said.👍
Thank you for the inspirational message
And I might add, no one is guaranteed a tomorrow. Love, laugh, live !!!
I turned 50 last Aug,not sure where the time went. Just like you I realized most of my best days are gone. It’s sad to think about it. I just wish I thought about life a little differently 30 years ago or so we still have a few years left. Let’s make the best of them.
I get sad thinking about how we can never go back to this ❤
I'd check out the Retrowave music genre if I were you... The midnight, FM 84, Timecop 1983, Sunglasses Kid and a LOT more are putting a fresh face to the 80's sound and have been for a few years now. It can never be exactly the same, but these bands are giving us Gen X and Xennials a small piece of it back.
When music was good.....
Those were the best years ever ❤️ music 🎶 life was fun and fulfilling.
❤
I feel ya
One of my all time favorites. RIP Eddie and Ronnie.

@@LOVEHAS1JOYRAINS2huh?
What a gentleman Mr. Money is. He doesn't try to hog the stage or out perform Ms. Spector, In fact, he seems to give deference to her as a Queen of Rock. You know he was just an awesome guy.
Saw Eddie 3 times live in small venues and still some of my favorite concerts . They're both gone now but still listening in 2023 ✌
So happy for Ronnie to get back in the spotlight back then. She was a hot lil number!
This performance of THIS song should be Rock and Roll Legend. The band and the vocals are just spectacular. What a combination. I have watched the video many, many times. It NEVER gets old.
My sentiments exactly 💯
I also think that Dave Letterman has not received enough credit for having great music and musicians on his show. In addition to well known artists, he also had many great singer song writers on that not many people knew about. He gave them a chance to be in the limelight. @@krysti2

❤THIS IS SO GOOD!!❤

Eddie's off-beat dancing and finger-snapping always got me. Super fun performance. Props to David Sanborn.
"Off-beat" is exactly what he was, but his energy and voice made him one the best ever. A true original!
Seinfeld. Elaine Bennis style!
Oh my gosh, right? So unique. I think I saw him live 4 or 5 times. Loved him.
He’s not off beat, he’s just being himself and not doing some idiotic over the top choreographed dance that the studios force upon their artists. He’s also a big guy in case you haven’t noticed, Dave is 6’-2” and he’s way bigger than him.
Tom jones is the same way 😊
Rip to a legend. What a beautiful collaboration.
RIP to two legends.

Eddie, Ronnie and David Sanborn. All gone but the music lives on. RIP
RIP to both Eddie and Ronnie!! Forever missed, never forgotten and the music lives on…😢❤
Lot of talent on stage! No auto tune!
Hadn’t been invented.
Don't forget no backing tracks, actual live playing and real amplifiers.
Amazing considering today and those lip synced are called great, lol
@@jumpinjojo Yeah, it was in the late 90s that it was invented
Lots of reverb effects and don’t forget goofy Paul on the too loud keyboards.
This brings a smile to my face. RIP to 2 legends.

I met this wonderful man! In Ft. Wayne Indiana! He was so nice to me and even signed my guitar! He was an amazing person and human being!
This song is pure joy! Ronnie's personality is infectious. So glad these two teamed up.

Ronnie looks beautiful here and she sounds amazing..when her voice kicks in with that classic voice crack of ronnie on the high notes..like heaven.
No one makes an entrance like Ronnie!
Exactly. I was getting goosebumps waiting for her. Goddess.

NO ONE can mince like Ronnie ! You knew her just from watching her dance.
Wow what the definition of a live performance. No prerecorded track, or band music. The mark of a true musician.

What a great live performance! That’s what true talent sounds like.

Watch the lady backup singer every time Ronnie sings. She's absolutely loving it! Watching these pros put their everything in to a performance is amazing. Letterman sure liked great music.
Wow, what great talented performers they both were. RIP King & Queen.
I loved Eddie Money! RIP Legends!
That smoke and the Late Night ball cap! And David Sanborn on sax!
I should have spotted David, the best sax man since the death of Miles Davis.
Eddie’s and Ronnie not afraid to perform live, epic!
Eddie so underrated!!!
I produced Eddie Money at Santa Clara University for a free Post Finals Celebration. It '77/'78.
I had him outside in KENNEDY MALL; surrounded by 3 Dorms!
He was awesome. Great guy.
Everybody did everybody right, respect at the time to an already legend and it ages so well. David Sanborn to boot. Well done to all.
RIP Eddie & Ronnie
Two of the real class acts of the music business.
She looks and sounds fantastic, and Eddie really tips the hat appropriately.
RIP to two legends.
The good ol’days. Takes me right back ❤
Now these two legends are together again, singing praises to God.

THIS SONG WAS NUMBER 1 IN CANADA IN SEPT OF 1986 . IT WAS NUMBER 1 FOR 3 WEEKS . THESE TWO AND THE BLACK AND WHITE VIDEO FOR THIS SONG ARE LEGENDARY TO THIS DAY. BOTH THESE ICONS PASSED AWAY FAR TO EARLY.
Eddie was first a new york cop, then a singer ! Eddie and Ronnie were fantastic together
RIP to both ya'll. Always loved your music and your sounds. Ronnie was not treated right in her time on Earth. Bless both
One of my favorite 80's tracks. Eddie should be in R&R HOF.
This sounds horrible
what sounds horrible about this performance?@@mcraft2240
Agreed
@@mcraft2240Because it's live and not lip syncing?
@@mcraft2240 You just haven't seen anything but fake performances. Live performances don't sound like the studio recording.
I like how he walks in and throws the cigarette down on the floor... 😂

I still find it hard to believe Eddie is not here anymore Rest in Heaven Eddie, and Ronnie how lovely and down to earth she was . .
Have been blessed to see and hear Ronnie Spector perform countless times. Such a gracious, kind, genuinely sincere and passionate person and performer. Stayed for hours after her shows for meet and greets. Just a lovely and gifted woman. ❤ RIP you are so missed and remembered with so much appreciation.🫶🏽
Eddie and ronnie surrounded by some truly talented and professional musicians. The musical performances on letterman were the highlight of that show for me and an important part of that golden era of television
Eddie was the epitome of cool. Few compares. A true legend.
I remember seeing this episode when it first came out. Classic. RIP to both of these legends.

I remember seeing this the night it was aired. Appreciate it more now. Back then very difficult to have a live performance. Paul was cooking back there. Loved when Sanborn used to show up!
Back when you needed to be on time and sitting on your couch to catch something you wanted to watch. You only had one chance to see it.
Paul was the highlight for sure ...good call
2 legends truly missed R.I.P. BOTH OF YOUR BEAUTIFUL SOULS
This made me cry. I was younger and living in Brooklyn, NY. Brought back wonderful memories. Also, her voice is so good! She's fab.
Watching and listening with emotions overflowing, we’ve been blessed
Loved this album!! Bought it on cassette on my 20th birthday!!
What a great duo. ❤. This song 🎵 brings back fond memories. They were phenomenal.

One of the best live performances on Letterman. I miss Eddie so much. I got to see him back in the late 70's. He played saxophone and rocked the house. RIP, Eddie. You were the best!

Letterman always had some great music on his show. Another legendary performance is when Sia did “Soon we’ll be found” outstanding !
Truly two world class legends, gone way to soon, love ya always Ronnie, rest in peace, 🙏
This is what was called talent. Much respect to both RIP. I love this song. His best in my opinion.
Ronnie's voice is better than ever in this performance! Wow! Miss her😢
And just like that the 80’s came rushing back to me! Pure talent and no autotune!
Their chemistry is great!
We Love Ronnie!!!! Thanks for making Another Timeless hit Eddie...Rock On!! 👍🎸💖

I miss both of them so much, Ronnie and Eddie. I hope you're both singing together up in the clouds ⛅️... John from New Jersey #1 Fan
Such an amazing act.
Classic rock n roll like no other.
RIP Ronnie Spector and Edward Mahoney🍀
Hard to believe that both of them are gone. Probably the best duet of the '80's.

Was there ANYBODY who got more out of their talent than the MONEY MAN. AMAZING. Thank you Mr. Mahoney for all you did for music and your fans. RIP
Excellent live performance - I loathe lip-syncing. RIP Eddie and Ronnie.
I seen eddie money perform at a county fair in Connecticut in the ' 90 's , he gave a phenomenal performance !

Downtown Akron Ohio 4th of July weekend we saw him .
Would of loved to be ronnies little baby when i was younger! Great song , beautiful singer !! RIP ronnie and eddie !!
I was lucky enough to see Eddie Money🎤 in concert. He was amazing. R.i.p. 💐
Well there was no auto tune here. Actually talented musicians! Rip Ronnie and Eddie thanks for leaving us this masterpiece.
I miss the Money Man so much. And Ronnie? One of the greatest of here time brought to the 80's and showcased once again. Such a gorgeous and talented lady.
I remember this song 🎵 like it was yesterday, can't believe that they are both gone, RIP EDDIE AND RONNIE. The song reminders me of 1988 and the amazing times I had that summer. Can't believe how old I am now...
Likewise here ! Getting old is definitely the worst JOB ever 😮
I was 16 in summer of 88 so you can’t be much older than 50-55. We still have lots of life ahead of us. Enjoy the years that’s left. At least we grew up in some of the best of times.
R.I.P. Eddie and Ronnie. Great to see this on RUclips. Thanks for posting.❤
Man. Ronnie was a gift to the world. RIP.
I saw Eddie Money in Camarillo, Ca. in ‘07, or ‘08… I was in my back yard and heard his music. I walked to the park near my house and he was giving a free concert. RIP Eddie.
Timeless!!!! Eddie & Ronnie
Music will never be the same.
Three legends on stage with
David Sanborn. Such a fun performance and the record was hot all over.
What a blast from the past….and the classic 360 trademark spin on Letterman. Wow.
I saw Eddie Money twice during the 90s when he toured w/ Rick Springfield, Loverboy, and a couple of other rotating 80s acts.
Even in the 90s, Eddie would do the spin, but at that age, it was always a 370 and came back 10 degrees to square up with the mike stand.
He had so many classics. Take Me Home Tonight is as anthemic as 80s hits get and is still my favorite. RIP, Eddie.
I had just started my senior year of high school when this aired. And yes, I was pretty much dressed like Will Lee everyday. Colorful sweater, faded tight blue jeans & white sneakers.
Always love Eddie Money. Ronnie definitely a legend. Will Lee and David Sanborn, two of my favorites from the Letterman era.
Don't forget,Paul Shafer is on that stage, rocking his ass off!
Eddie Money Rocked! There's no one else like him.
Both had amazing powerful distinctive voices. Glad that they did this recording.
I got here cause I heard it on the radio . Great song by 2 great artists RIP Eddie & Ronnie Sydney Australia 🦘 16/9/2024 ❤😊
Love this performance with Eddie and Ronnie too did a great job make me want to dance too!!❤ rip eddie and Ronnie rip ❤
Eddie Money and Ronnie Spector, you both will truly be missed 😢 🎉🎉. You both look and sound damn good together. You both fit like a hand in glove 🎉🎉. You both are having fun and enjoying what you love to do 🎉🎉
Nice Work! Wish that they were still with us!
I got to see Eddy at the Stanislaus County Fair in Turlock Calif. on the free stage it was major coolz...
He was the best. I followed him for 30 years in both the big venues and the small. There were some dark times and maybe some drunken performances but his music always hit me right where I needed it. A true legend.
Ronnie is a true legend that will be remembered forever
I loved this. Recorded it on the VCR and played it back very often. I was 16 at the time. Recorded every letterman show during my middle school and HS. Wish I had those videos now. OF course I only had a dozen tapes or so at any time, so they got taped over except in special cases like this one.
I did the same during the early 90s when I would stay the night st my babysitter. She had a vcr and csble!!! I recorded a lot of star trek tng and mtv. I had maybe 3 vhs and I would could record 3 hours and 6 if I set the vcr a certain way. I stayed up all night during the summers there from 90 to around 93. Then my aunt got cable and lots of vhs. I remember recording a lot of movies off HBO and encore...vhs was my youtube.
It's obvious why everyone misses the 80's --- two music icons just rockin' out --- no Auto-Tune or two dozen choreographed backup dancers needed to entertain us!
I use to babysit Ronnie’s kids back in the day… she was a trip always such a gracious lady.. miss her
You knew ronnie???? Are you serious???
I can watch young Eddie Money day and night... I always adored his music, but have only recently seen the videos. A good thing,too- I would've definitely run away to be his groupie, GF, wife or anything else he wanted.
Especially his Little Baby...
Take me home, Eddie!!*
RIP🎉🎉❤🎉🎉
Okay. Who else got chills when Ronnie Specter literally MATERIALIZED on stage next to Eddie for her part for that live television broadcast? My God. This wasn't the flashest performance you've ever seen or heard but it was absolutely magical beyond words. To be there in the Ed Sullivan Theater in New York City to watch these two legends do one of the best songs he ever recorded live... I can't even imagine it.
They sound great together wish they were still around RIP
I miss you Eddie Money so much ! Thank you for all those years of GREAT music ❤
Sounded amazing live
I saw Eddie Smokey in 2006 at an intimate party - he was FANTASTIC! RIP
