Eddie Money's Greatest Songs 

Two Tickets to Paradise
'Two Tickets to Paradise' is from Eddie Money's first album 'Eddie Money' in 1977, and is one of his most well-known songs. It reached #11 in the US singles charts and has been featured in numerous video games, movies and TV shows, including 'The Simpsons' and 'Grand Theft Auto'. Eddie Money wrote this song as a plea to his girlfriend to stay with him - her mother disapproved of her relationship with a musician.

Take Me Home Tonight
'Take Me Home Tonight' reached #4 in the US charts in 1986, and is featured on the album 'Can't Hold Back'. Eddie Money duets with Ronnie Spector. The video for the song is black and white - Money performs on an empty stage without an audience, and Spector is backstage, slowly making her way towards him and into the room. Recently, Eddie Money has performed the song with his daughter Jessica, an up-and-coming singer in her own right.

Walk on Water
This song became a US #9 hit, and is from the 1988 album 'Nothing to Lose'.
