1. His New Wave period was the best.

6. I don't give a flying fuck what anyone here says in opposition to me...

Billy Joel's songs are outstanding for me.....they resonate for me...they speak to me.....

He may be a prick, or a jerk.....but I love his music!







:kick:

Edited to add....sorry..I meant to respond to the OP! Please excuse me......:hide:

11. I thank you muchly!

His music sustained me during some tough days earlier in my life....

Even today, his song Piano Man makes me get up and dance deliriously around the room......

Thank you for the flower, too.....

14. My dear tuvor.....

Sorry, but I don't understand you....I posted my response to this thread in the wrong place....to you!

I apologize for my error......truly....but how do I owe you?

Damn, but I hate being naive.......inexperienced....... :banghead:

[tuvor]

16. You don't owe me at all, CP.

I was being silly. It's Saturday, after all, and that just means there's more wine in my system than usual. :)

Cheers!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

19. Ah, thank you! My education continues, I guess......

Wine is, after all, a very good thing!


Cheers back atcha! :toast:

2. I like his big production symphonic numbers

Ballad of Billy the Kid; Angry Young Man,

He should have written for Broadway.

7. No, I threw a few "I Love Billy" choices into my poll...

5. Ha!

I happened to come across the fnal minutes of a recent Billy Joel concert on A&E or some channel, and he finished whatever number it was by jumping up on the piano and sort of running on the spot and flailing his arms for a whole minute. He's kind of portly now, so he was sweating so much he resembled a Billy Joel-shaped lawn sprinkler.

He looked like Richard Simmons on a coke binge.

But I have a soft spot for Billy Joel, because anyone who can go in front of millions of people and dance as clunkily as he and Christie Brinkley did in the Uptown Girl video... well, they make me feel like Fred Astaire.

12. LOL

"resembled a Billy Joel-shaped lawn sprinkler" :rofl:

8. cap'n jack and that special island...

that is where I want to go....

[NNadir]

15. Whenever I think of my Long Island roots, I think of Billy Joel...

...and am relieved I don't live there any more.

Syosset bars were depressing before he was famous, and they are much more so now.

17. We Didn't Start The Fire rocks!!!

I love that song!!!!
