    Who in the FUCK waits 30 years between releasing pop songs and then CRUSHES it with an instant classic? Billy frikkin' Joel, that's who. What an all-time great song from an all-time great musician, performer, and song-writer.

      Only thing I can think of recently is Bruce releasing "If I Were The Priest" on his latest album. He held onto that song for 50 years.
      All the same, this song (and Bruce's) were worth the wait!

    To think Billy Joel hasn't written a song in 30 years, and now he has released a brand-new song that is already amazing and shows he never lost his touch. The Piano Man's still got it and I love every minute of this epic live performance of "Turn the Lights Back On".

    A big difference between Billy Joel and today's modern singers is that he stays true to himself, good or bad, and he sings from his heart. No BS. I can say that a lot of people who are in a relationship or married, can relate to this song. He went through a lot in his private life and it shows in this song. It took him 17 years till he finally turned the lights back on but I'm glad he did. I think he held on to a small hope and a piece of passion somewhere in his heart but he never gave up. When he saw a light at the end of the tunnel, it's show time!
    And at his age, his voice is still surprisingly good and I hope he's found a new passion for song writing again.
    Billy Joel, I wish you nothing but a good health and another round of success. God bless you!!

      As a person he stands out as normal amongst all those show ponies with their perfect teeth, glamour, and vacant brains. Hollywood and stardom seems increasingly to have grown in vanity and veneer over substance They eother fawn of each other or make political statements on issues they know nothing about. But not Billy or those of his era. Not only that but more importantly the music then was 10x better and of utmost importance. What a brilliant performance and his vocal is just amazing. Have a great weekend.

      I agree with your comment about anyone in a relationship or marriage can relate to this beautiful song. I read the lyrics the day it "dropped" and was stunned at what the song says and how it completely reflects a struggle my husband and I find ourselves in. I showed my husband the lyrics and we read them together. He said, "Did Billy write these words for me to say to you?" And, literally two seconds after he said that, "Turn The Lights Back On" began playing on our car radio. It was the most eerie and beautiful/painful thing; I'm still trying to believe it happened, but it did.
      I've been a loyal fan of Billy's since Piano Man. His music (along with Elton, Boz and others) truly has been the sound track of my youth. Just love the guy and this song.

      @@joe-vz6hx -- But see, that's just not true. Do you ever watch Fil's channel here? He talks about how pop singers today CAN sing, and sing well. Yet production still dictates the use of pitch correction. There were PLENTY of bands of the 60's through 80's who had singers that were far from great, in a technical sense, but their expression was what made them great. I love the Beatles, but do you think John had a beautiful voice?

      @joe-vz6hx 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      ugh, I don't. A song like this does not lend itself to raspiness or "grit".....but I guess he was trying to compensate because he can't sing "pretty" like he used to...the control, the vibrato, etc just isn't there much anymore. Not his fault of course, it's just an aging thing. Still, hearing anything new from Billy Joel is a welcome surprise.

    For someone who is 74 years old, it’s bonkers how well his voice has aged. Obviously everyone’s voice when they get older declines. Compared to his contemporaries like Elton John and Bruce Springsteen, this is off the charts. Hell, even when compared to singers who are the generation younger than him (e.g. Bono) he sounds fantastic.

He's also openly spoken about actively doing things to maintain the strength of his voice. So he really did things the right way. It's amazing how smooth the voice still sounds.

    I don't know what it is about Billy Joel in particular, but he is that one artist who somehow captures that "magic in the bottle" live performance. He does it so well, there are live versions of his songs that fans consider the "standard" for that song. I listened to the studio version of this and enjoyed it, but didn't think it was all that special. And then..... the Grammys. LOL. This is SO much better than the studio version.

    I saw him open for The Michael Stanley Band, a popular band in Cleveland, Ohio, back in the late 70s. All these years later I can still recall seeing him play The Piano Man on that stage in Akron, Ohio. I have remained a fan. Living in Japan now, I had only heard about this performance. Thank you for posting. It was just spectacular. Stay safe. Smile. ❤

    We all got old together with Billy Joel. Now this comes from him and once again we can relate, like we did with his other songs for a long time. Nice to have a new one from him. He's still with us. Y'all take care and enjoy yourself. His songs can always help.

    His songs are always very literal. Awesome!

      He typically keeps it down to earth (with exception of the sci-fi Miami 2017), and as he cajoles someone in 'Pressure': "I'm sure you'll have some cosmic rationale..."

    Instantly better than 95% of the new stuff out there. Interesting chords, terrific melody, great lyrics. No drum machine, no autotune, not written by 15 producers.

    I heard about this song...chose it on youtube and thought I'd just listen to it in the background while I worked.....and then I was like "no.....first song from Billy Joel in thity years.....WATCH and LISTEN and appreciate greatness". Good to have him back. It sounds like he isn't planning an album release or anything, but maybe just maybe we will get single songs every now and again?

      Maybe he is "testing the water" after 30 years away, maybe he thinks we have forgot him? I say never, once a fan always a fan. ❤
