Excellent cover, people don’t realize how difficult it is to play the harmonica and play piano at the same time. Your voice was perfect for this song. Thank you
Yess! My version of "this is the best cover I will probably ever hear" is Sultans of Swing - Dire Straits (Josh Turner Cover) th-cam.com/video/w5SC1uIxXhk/w-d-xo.html
Yea but its supposed to be a cover, not a copy/paste I see many people these days forget the meaning of "cover" in music, its supposed to be you doing someone elses song in your own style If I wanted to listen "close to original" I would listen to original song itself
@@nicholassage2076 well said. I love the style he brought to the table and the way he made it his. He changed up the piano also a little bit with his own style I really liked the subtle licks in the piano

It's too bad this can only be liked once. Not only is singing his awesome, but playing it on piano while playing the harmonica makes it nothing less than outstanding. By far the best cover on TH-cam.

You are a brilliant performer. I wish I had half of your talent! But I am learning. I try to play the piano every day and I love Billy Joel's songs, particularly Vienna. It's one of the most beautiful I've ever heard. Getting to see a clear view of the piano and how you voice each chord and approach the rhythm and so-on is incredibly useful to a beginner like me. Thanks very much!
Wwwwoooowwww! Jeezus. Most people can barely play the piano, nevermind piano, harmonica and sing all at the same time! I'm a musician too, wish I could do all that
That was freaking perfect!! I'm just so impressed by how you play 2 instruments at the same time and also sing with such a clear voice. Wow. You really have talent and I can see and hear that you really enjoy and feel the music. Keep going😀. May I suggest a song? Try "alone again naturally" by Gilbert O'sullivan. I love that song :))
Amazing man!!! Such a phenomenal cover!

THANKS MATE! This reply is LONG overdue, very sorry about that.

@Kyle Boyer its a cover so hes going to add his own way I dont wana hear a cover exactly the same as the original
Joel Ramos thank you for sayin that homie
For a moment thought you were the flashbulb lmao
*Loves his voice*
*Turns up audio*
*Gets murdered by earraping harmonica*
*GETS MURDERED BY EARRAPING HARMONICA*
Haha, yeah that'll get ya. Sorry Denki!
Could be worse, you could be listening to Bob Dylan
Piss off.@@samcoleman605

Biggest Question of all
Is Davy still in the Navy?
No. Davy is dead. He was for life, though
@@thisguy1159 wow thats hard
@@nilseden3757 I was gonna say
@@thisguy1159 Billy took it hard... poor Billy...
When this song came out my brother Dave WAS in the navy and stayed there till he died.
If there is one good thing that TH-cam has brought, it's that it allows people like this to show their talent.
Anyone can play the piano with practice, but few can become the Piano man. Thank you for the beautiful rendition.
One of the most underrated cover...hats off to your talent Liam
Thanks for the kind words Arijit, means a lot!
Absolutely brilliant version, sounds so much like the man himself.
Liam Cooper 10/10
five years after this came out i am still coming back to hear this the voice is just wonderful and perfect
Beautiful voice! I love classic music with modern voices.
By far the best cover I've ever seen. Of any song. Only 455k views?!
This was my Dad’s song. We lost him last year to pancreatic cancer. You have done him proud xx
Thanks Deborah.
The king of multitasking
Holy sh*t!! 😮 Best performance of anything I’ve seen!
it’s very very very complete 😭😭
I like what you did with the song its the small little details that i think makes the song yours. I simply love the emotion man keep working man
An honor to Billy Joel, the real Piano Man!
This gentleman is absolutely out of his mind and it is fantastic
Atta boy👍 piano, voice, and harmonica
Excellent cover, people don’t realize how difficult it is to play the harmonica and play piano at the same time. Your voice was perfect for this song. Thank you
this is actually wonderful wow. this is the best cover I will probably ever hear
Thank you Charlie!

Thank you for bringing me back to that time..
You're most welcome!
Musician myself and I haven't seen a more passionate cover than this. Respect.
The second you started singing I got goose bumps BRAVO 👏 🎉❤
He literally deserves millions of views
This is the best piano man cover in youtube as well as in any other platforms
Очень классная песня! Шикарное исполнение! Предел мечтаний! Спасибо за удовольствие!
You got it down man. This is so close to the original. That signature rasp and a little more husk is all your missing.
Yea but its supposed to be a cover, not a copy/paste

Joel, Nicholas and Diddly Doodly Walrus (LOL) - thank you!
I love this song and your cover man. Every once in a while, I listen to this cover. Respect.❤
The best cover of this song on YT. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you. My ears are pleased and I spent a good moment listening to you, piano man.
man, this is insane talent. voice, guitar, harmonica and piano, this is insane you are so blessed
You are truly the most gifted person I have ever seen. You are so fantastic! Reach for the stars sweetheart, you're going places in life. ❤
Wow. I learned it by ear with two hands on the piano , but this blew me away. Thank you for the talent Liam!! You rock!
I went to my very first Billy Joel concert and he was AMAZING! Stevie Nicks opened for him! ❤
The best cover on the interweb, bar none! Stunningly brilliant.
Wowwww amazing ♥️
Thank you from Turkey for this amazing song 🇹🇷👍👏
You're most welcome! Hello from Australia! 👋
It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
The regular crowd shuffles in
There's an old man sitting next to me
Makin' love to his tonic and gin
He says, "Son, can you play me a memory
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes"
La la la, di da da
La la, di da da da dum
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright
Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks for free
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
But there's someplace that he'd rather be
He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me"
As the smile ran away from his face
"Well I'm sure that I could be a movie star
If I could get out of this place"
Oh, la la la, di da da
La la, di da da da dum
Now Paul is a real estate novelist
Who never had time for a wife
And he's talkin' with Davy, who's still in the Navy
And probably will be for life
And the waitress is practicing politics
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
Yes, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
But it's better than drinkin' alone
Sing us a song you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we're all in the mood for a melody
And you got us feeling alright
It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
And the manager gives me a smile
'Cause he knows that it's me they've been comin' to see
To forget about life for a while
And the piano, it sounds like a carnival
And the microphone smells like a beer
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
And say, "Man, what are you doin' here?"
Oh, la la la, di da da
La la, di da da da dum
Sing us a song you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we're all in the mood for a melody
And you got us feeling alright
Thank you for this but all of us here already knew the lyrics by heart
@@thoth5534 LOL
This is the BEST cover I’ve heard of this song
