What a passionate version of the famous Billy Joel song ! Bravo! 😮😃👍
The man is a legend, I took my mum to see Elio in Peterborough doing his Elvis show with Steve Ashton (on drums), there was a mix-up with the ticket sales so only about 60 ish were there. Most prima donas would of cancelled, but Elio apologised and said: Let’s just pretend I came round your house and we ordered a few pizzas’, absolute class!
This is so wonderful. No words. All the feels here.
This guy is truly brilliant and great band , how come I’ve not heard of him before now?
He puts on a great show. Go and see him next year, him and his band are amazing!
Does it get any better than this? No Way.. An outstanding artist 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Billy would say "This guy's got chops", very good indeed.
Love that reference. ;)
Absolutely sublime!!!!!
Fantastic singer,piano player and band can’t wait to see them in Edinburgh next April
O.....M....G!!! Fantastic, BEST cover ever!!!!!
Po lok
We love you Elio xx
Perfect, man! I'm a Billy Joel fan, you and your guys propose the perfect spirit.
I saw this guy when he attended Leeds College of Music. Great then ... And great now.
Looking forward to seeing him in York next year. Saw him on a cruise years ago and I’ve been watching out for a show near me ever since
There are still some moments you hear a coverversion that is better than the original....awesome!!!
Bravissimi! Versione meravigliosa...
Maravillosa
Frank on sax....epic....

Fantastic - I’ve put a link to this on my site. Keep up the fantastic work. See you next March In Wakefield for the albums. Your amazing.👍👍🎶 “ Silvo”
Hello - just came across this! What a fantastic version. As a huge Billy Joel fan and a pianist - keyboard player, can I please ask if a real acoustic piano was used? The piano sound is perfect. Also the background strings really add so much to the finished sound. ~ Anthony
Some folks like to get away
Take a holiday from the neighborhood
Hop a flight to Miami Beach
Or to Hollywood
But I'm taking a Greyhound
On the Hudson River Line
I'm in a New York state of mind
I've seen all the movie stars
In their fancy cars and their limousines
Been high in the Rockies under the evergreens
But I know what I'm needing
And I don't want to waste more time
I'm in a New York state of mind
It was so easy living day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and blues
But now I need a little give and take
The New York Times, The Daily News
It comes down to reality
And it's fine with me 'cause I've let it slide
Don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside
I don't have any reasons
I've left them all behind
I'm in a New York state of mind
It was so easy living day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and blues
But now I need a little give and take
The New York Times, The Daily News
It comes down to reality
And it's fine with me 'cause I've let it slide
Don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside
I don't have any reasons
I've left them all behind
I'm in a New York state of mind
I'm just taking a Greyhound on the Hudson River Line
'Cause I'm in a New York state of mind
Who's the sax player?
I know, right? Amazing
@@B4Usmilelaugh I would like to hear his other performances with other groups.
Sorry to Billy Joel, but this guy’s ability to play the piano might be better than Billy. He is playing this song in Bb key but not using transpose, while Billy does.
Lol thats just not true. Billy can definitely play this song in Bb. Yes he does use a transposer live but that doesnt mean anything. He wrote the song in the first place, and is a talented piano player, with songs in all kinds of keys. There is an interview he did recently its about 50 minutes on TH-cam of him talking about his career, and somehwere he talks about how he wrote new york state of mind in too high of a key, and starts to play it in i think Bb or A
he plays it in the original key and the piano is transposed (he is using an electric piano) so I'm not sure how what you're saying is related to his piano abilities.
