youtube
Billy Joel has a new single, and it's really fucking good.

Billy Joel - The Downeaster 'Alexa' (Live at the Los Angeles Sports Arena, April 1990)
youtube
While I'm on a roll about Billy's vocals, I'll leave this here, because I've probably listened to it 20 times over the last few days. Everything going on here is great. Liberty on the drums. Jean-Luc Ponty on the violin. Billy giving a chill-inducing vocal performance. This incredible song. I can't get over it.

This is one of my favorite Billy Joel songs, and I'm absolutely loving this cover of it.

nothing like realizing that billy joel was a hyper fixation for me at one point and how much i learned about him and read his music like watching the inside the actors studio episode with him in it and my dad fully not knowing several of the songs they talked about even with having been a fan of his for ages

Due to the way I watch my DVD collection, I've been waiting to make this joke for about 7 years now:
🎶 Tell my wife I am watching Atlantis
and I still have my hands on the… DHD 🎶

Not just weird music. I distinctly remember a certain popular musician from the 90s who is known for writing absolute bangers about being poor in America.. or was it that other guy? Or the other, other guy?
“Well it’s not just mainstream music, aren’t ALL songs about sex and relationships if you really think about it—“ Absolutely the fuck not. I just listened to a song about being buried alive and one about pirates battling a giant squid. Listen to more weird music immediately
#no for real though#billy joel can have my soul#the downeaster alexa#gotta be my top crying for no reason song#hands down

CBS not showing Uptown Girl was wild. Like I'm not actually mad about it, I didn't care about seeing that one, but of all the songs to not include that's the only one that surprised me.
#i knew downeaster alexa and everybody loves you now were toast lol#wild that vienna got show but not uptown girl#i'm glad but also..... things have changed
