    It’s always a joy to watch someone discover Billy Joel for the first time. He’s got a huge catalog. He’s an amazing musician who loves trying different styles. Keep going down this path. You will not be disappointed.

    Your reaction wiped me off my feet lol. Billy Joel, from Long Island New York, near New York City...took claiiscal piano lessons for years on his parents' insistence.Yes Classical music! He is a masster at piano playing, story telling, and wanted to be a rock and roll guy like any kid. "Piano Man" is based on Joel's real-life experiences as a lounge musician in Los Angeles from 1972 to 1973. In 1973/74 Piano Man was on his first real album, and the single got quite a bit of airplay but only made it to #25 onthe Billboard Hot 100.. After another album or two he relased THe Stranger in 1977 and had about 4 hits off it and other brilliant compostions [I call them compositions because these were not your ordiniary songs, they had superior melodies, chord changes and lyrics - they are extrordinary!] Piano Man has become his signture song and everyone in the audience sings it for him in concerts.. He did not write anything new between 1993 and now. He has just come out with a new successful song called Turn the Lights Back On...he's years 74 old and will turn 75 on May 9, 2024. Henow is bald with gray hair on the side, with a grey mustache and goatee beard. I consider Billy Joel the George Gershwin of his era, at least in song writing. Look up George Gershwin, get educated...Sarah, you're an incredibly nice lady...

  • @philipem1000

    He wrote all his own music -- he had endless hits. His way with words is unparalleled. "Making love to his tonic and gin" "when I wore a younger man's clothes" "The smile ran away from his face..." and yes "Drinking a drink they call loneliness but it's better than drinking alone..." Pure poetry.
    He does a residency at Madison Square Garden once a month -- he sells the place out every time for years now.

    Billy Joel was a major star in the 70s and 80s with many his but this song was what made him famous. It's masterfully written and performed and is a timeless classic. I grew up about 10 miles and 10 years from where he did (my HS choral teacher went to HS with Joel and used to brag that he beat out Joel for the lead in a school musical, lol).
    A lot of his songs call out places that are familiar to me. Some specific places but others, like an Italian restaurant which described any one of hundreds of such places on Long Island, NY.

    I saw Billy Joel in concert in the 90’s. I rate it in my top three shows and I’ve been to a lot of concerts. He’s the best! Love you girl ❤

    The late 60s and the early 70s. We had the best music and the coolest cars.
    I still have my 1969 Cutlass 442.

    Billy Joel is an amazing talent with a huge number of great songs. I suggest watching some of his live shows. The Soviet Union tour and Yankee stadium are amazing. You will be blown away.

    Your analysis is spot on. Except I see these moments that people go to a bar, have a drink and listen to music not as running away, but as a momentary escape from the pains and disappointments of life they know they must return to. The joy they feel singing along and to feel a part of the crowd as they all sway together is a few moments of stolen happiness in an otherwise bitter world.

    Isn't it amazing how a song can just break your heart but make you feel so good at the same time. You got this old man tearing up watching your beautiful reaction.

    Oh, I adore your reaction to Billy. Thank you. This is a very special song. Everyone here heard it for the first time, too. It might have been many years ago, but we, too, heard it once for the first time. Welcome aboard.

    Billy Joel is a gift! I am so glad I grew up during his hey day. At 74 years he just released a new song after years and years. Worth a listen as are ALL his songs.

    My husband and I had our first real date going to a Billy Joel concert back in 1979! He's just as good in person, or better, than on the radio. He's an amazing musician and a wonderful storyteller.

    Billy Joel is one of the great musicians. Great voice and top level piano skills. If you want to see how good his piano skills are watch his video foe. Prelude to angry young man.

    This is my favorite Billy Joel song. He is a brilliant song writer.
    I’m sure other comments mention many other great songs by him.
    When your in the mood for something light and fun by him watch Uptown Girl.

    Billy Joel is America’s greatest living singer-songwriter. This song launched his career. He is a must to see live in concert.

    It was a pleasure to see you react to this beautiful but under-rated song. It is by far my favorite song by Joel.
