Billy may think the song was simplistic but his amazing storytelling lyric resonated with a lot of people. "They're sharing a drink they call loneliness but it's better than drinking alone."
I would pay money to see Billy spend about 1 hour playing...and 1 hour speaking...about maybe 10 of his songs. He'd be great at a 'Storytellers' type tour.

Amazing that such a brilliant songwriter/performer is so down to earth and seems oblivious to his great talent.
Billy Joel is an amazing musician and runs circles around his own talent. 😅
The great BILLY JOEL,not only a brilliant singer songwriter,a great pianist but a hilarious funny storyteller god bless him❤.
The song is great because we feel it.
You are just the conduit to the muse.
Amazing talent.
Love it..and always love your voice Billy. Remember seeing you in Melbourne,,years ago. Fantastic. :)
That song is great because of the story it tells.
Such a great musician & song writer & hilarious to boot ! His impressions of other artists in previous videos had me howling !

His Charlie Rose interview kind of that.
There a lot of his Masterclasses here on TH-cam. He used to do them at colleges back in the 90s. Lots of stories, questions and playing.
We are back better together and with a brand new beat can’t wait
Genius
Professor Joel teaching student Stern the subject of music theory.
Great comic timing from Billy Joel. He’s a great musician, but has the mind of a comedian.
love the howard stern show cents me was little part of my childhood
A musician's most famous song is often not their personal favorite
I am the Entertainer...cut it down to 3:05!
"It was a beautiful song, but it ran too long. If you're gonna have a hit, ya gotta make it fit. So they cut it down to 3:05."
ONLY HE is allowed to make fun of it
The moderators on these videos do a good job
