It’s easy to have swagger when you - and your band - have that kind of massive talent. So glad you discovered this jewel 💎.

I saw Billy at Notre Dame last summer and at 73yrs old he's still rockin and doing an almost 3 hour show. Billy and the band are still selling out arenas and he is awesome 😎.It was great to see the smile you had and that you liked the song.😊

This is why Billy Joel is the greatest of the modern era of music. Musical genius and composer. Best lyrics of all time, the man paints pictures with words. And lets not forget how fucking COOL this man is

YES! This song embodies what is best about NYC 🗽🗽🗽. Grew up in the Bronx and Brooklyn; live just across the water in Jersey and can see the skyline when I’m at the beach down the road from my house. The spirit of New York is in me until the day I die ❤. Moved to San Diego in 2014; lasted 16 months and came back; had to get back home!!! Congratulations on getting the Jethro Tull reference!!!!!! 🔥

This song makes anyone feel like they are walking down Broadway on your way to Time Square transformed into a New York State Of Mind.... Magical. You found the right version of this most certain Classic Rock song from one of the most prolific songsters of all time....."Piano Man"

Such a great performance! I actuallly got my picture in Rolling Stone because of him. I was in high school and went with my drama class on a trip to NYC. We went to see Little Shop of Horrors when it was still off-Broadway. But it had a lot of buzz. I ended up talking with this stunning woman in the bathroom during intermission. When it was over, I ended up next to her on the street, just casually chit-chatting about how great the show was. She was with this guy and I thought she was way out of his league. Then a camera man jumped out and said, “Mr. Joel, Ms. Brinkley, Rolling Stone, can I get a shot?” Yes, it was Christie Brinkley (the hottest supermodel at the time) that I had been talking to! And she was with Bill Joel. They had just started dating (they later married). She threw her arms around him immediately and the camera flashed. And in the next issue of Rolling Stone, there was the picture announcing that they were an item. And I’m in the background with my jaw hanging down in disbelief. That was my 10 second of fame. 😂 - And I was a Billy Joel fan and I’d seen a million pictures of Christie Brinkley. But you don’t recognize people when you’re not expecting to see someone famous.

Love how Billy Joel clearly gives zero f👀ks about KZitem copyright. Everything available. Has more money than just about any artist so he’s not gonna stress over people sharing his music. Absolute legend.

With that much talent he doesn't really need both hands, he could do that as they say... With One Hand Tied Behind His Back. Billy is up there with Rick Davies, Nicky Hopkins, Steve Walsh, Elton John, Rick Wakeman, Keith Emerson and some of the best to ever touch a keyboard.

If you enjoyed this song, check out My Baby Grand by Billy Joel & Ray Charles. It has a similar feel to it (such that I often confuse the 2 until I hear them side by side, lol), but seeing/hearing 2 such accomplished pianists play together is fabulous!

@JMBOYTV , I saw Billy Joel in 76. Most of the songs he had a harmonica around his neck, playing the piano and wailin' on that mouth harp...incredible. I liked your intro story about knowing who Jethro Tull is now since doing these reactions. You play a lot of great music. If you're ever wanting to do a deep dive into one hit wonder artists, there are tons we can turn you on to... bands like these: Dr. John, Groundhogs, Tommy Bolin, Blue Cheer, Goose Creek Symphony, Ars Nova, Troggs, McDonald & Giles, Al Kooper, Long John Baldry, Wishbone Ash, Seven, Harvey Mandel, Al Stewart, Boz Scaggs, Funkadelic, Gypsy, Ian Thomas, Baker Gurvitz Army, John Kongos, America, Bloodrock, Atomic Rooster, Argent, Buzzy Linhart, Crabby Appleton, Gentle Giant, Chilliwack, Camel, H.P. Lovecraft, Klaatu, Magic Mushroom, Peanut Butter Conspiracy.... ok, ok, I'll stop.... but that is just a few. There were SO many bands with SO many songs.
