Because the song is basically in chronological order, and I have the lyrics memorized, it’s a handy way for me to remember what events happened around the same time as each other…not like the crappy fall out boy remake.
I love Billy Joel. This song is absolutely timeless and a history lesson.❤ Sometimes Artists write and release songs that will ring true today. The fabulous Marvin Gaye released two songs in particular that if you listened to them today you could currently relate to them. What's Going On ( yep Marvin it's still going on 53 years later) & Mercy Mercy Me.❤ Stay safe
Billy loves all types of music and it shows because he writes it all.
Love his history lesson!
And History repeats itself because we’re not learning from the past. This song may need history and lyrics but it’s worth it!
im 68yo, not a lot has changed unfortunately, can only hope, every history teacher needs to play this song to their class
Some Eeachers used this song to teach kids History. Each Student had to research the people and events mentioned in the song.
