Before we get too much farther, I'm absolutely not anti Billy Joel ... until you get post We Didn't Start the Fire ... shortly thereafter it's hard to argue that it wouldn't have been best for him to die in a tub in Paris.

(France, not Illinois)

"We Didn't Start The Fire" is just a lesser version of "Life Is A Rock" by Reunion.

As you can tell I'm very bitter that Sirius replaced the 40s station with the Billy Joel station. They probably figured the people in the old folks homes wouldn't notice.

And So It Goes is a great song about him dating a teenage Elle MacPherson when he was like 35,

You need no other proof that it is a man's world than the amount of supermodels billy joel has had.

You rarely see a wealthy, fat, bald old lady with a famous, young, independently wealthy and good looking guy on her arm. Yet, there Billy is with the top of the top beauties in this world lined up at his doorstep.

My mom always told me I would regret quitting my piano lessons.

Or beheading a woman for driving a car on a public street without a head covering or male escort.

Wait, wrong thread.

No doubt but even at his worst he is an incredibly talented piano player. Compare him to pop acts of the last 40 or so years and you know this guy would have had some success in music had he never sung a note.

I think his problem really came in the mid 80s when he thought he had to do something more to impress supermodels. That results in the doo Nut, we didn't start the fire and uptown girl portion of his career. It happens to us guys in competition for super models


Go listen to some recordings by Murray Perahia and then try to read that sentence without throwing up.

Billy Joel is an incredible pianist in the same sense that Keeping Score was an incredible poster.

Listening right now to the Stern/Billy Joel town hall and Billy admits he is not a great piano player. He said he "just gets by".
