WOW!!!! WHY IS IT THAT I ALWAYS FALL IN LOVE WITH 80'S MUSIC ARTISTS LONG AFTER THEY'VE RETIRED (or gone weird...see Elton John).
BUT YAH....BILLY JOEL ROCKS MAN!!! WE DIDN'T START THE FIRE! IT WAS ALWAYS BURNIN SINCE THE WORLD'S BEEN TURNIN!!!!
LET'S NOT FORGET DOWNEASTER ALEXA, I GO TO EXTREMES, AND LENINGRAD (yah, I like that song even though I'm a conservative.)
BILLY, COME OUT OF RETIREMENT DUDE!

I can't say I've gone out my way to listen to his music but the few songs I've heard of his have strokes of genius in it. You can't always agree with some artists' philosophies but you can still enjoy their music.

I've always enjoyed his music, although I gravitate to his older material. Let's not get into his politics though *ahem*.

*laughs*
*seems to remember a voice mail someone once left her with nothing but a BILLY JOEL SONG PLAYING*
Ahem. Anyway, moving on. I really like Billy Joel as well, although I've been a fan of his music for quite some time. *child of the 80's*
If you're ever in the mood for something softer, you should check out the song "And So It Goes". GORGEOUS lyrics and it's a beautiful melody too.

[color=DarkGreen] Oh, I didn't say that. I'll be honest and say I've never had anyone do that before. I'll also be honest and say that I laughed for about ten minutes afterwards. In fact, every time I think about it, I STILL laugh.
I just think it proves you have entirely too much time on your hands ]

Why that song particularly?
Although if I leave songs on voice mail, I favour Blondie's "Call Me"

Because it's a cool song shooraigjin.
In fact, if I could, I'd make a Naruto AMV with that song playing. Heh heh. Oh boy...why oh why did Billy have to retire? Elton John is still going, so why can't he?
