Eddie Money on Two Tickets to Paradise & Take Me Home Tonight – One of His Final Interviews

from Professor of Rock

Coming up, one of the funniest interviews I’ve been involved with and it’s one of the last full-length interviews this famous rocker ever gave and it’s entertaining as hell! His name is Eddie Money and today he tells the story of both a 70s rock classic Two Tickets to Paradise and his big comeback song of the 80s Take Me Home Tonight. He was a poor kid from the other side of the tracks dating a rich girl. Her parents didn’t want her seeing him He wanted to take her somewhere special but didn’t have the money so he wrote her a song… It became a rock classic then about 8 years later his career hit the skids when He had a sensational idea for a song that paid tribute to the music of his youth so he pulled a '60s legend out of retirement and had her sing a duet with him…It became one of the biggest hits of the decade… The interview is next.
