Just thought of an idea for a movie that takes place in 70s-80s New York, it’s a musical through the lens of characters struggling during that time and they break out in Billy Joel songs.
A musical history piece that covers a specific artist’s work, how many movies can you say does that?

Since Billy Joel is trending now, here are my favorites in no particular order:
New York man is fucking pissed
Why you shouldn't marry right out of high school
Don't trust anyone, not even yourself your lover
Tied with Alicia Keys for "Most Overplayed song at any given NYC sports game" award
Barbershop quartet serenades you so sweetly under the moonlight
Never live in Hackensack, New Jersey
Hey remember the Vietnam War? Yeah that was bad.
I wanna have sex with a Catholic girl
I wanna have sex with an Upper East Side girl
Solo by The Artful Dodger from the hit 1830's bestseller Oliver Twist
Shit's fucked
The only reason I know about the existence of Wheeling, West Virginia
"Hey, Billi! Looks to me like you're on the WRONG SIDE OF THE RIVER"
#Seta Speaks#Billy Joel#Brought to you by someone who owns first-editions of Piano Man The Stranger SLS and Turnstiles on vinyl#The are; in order:#Prelude/Angry Young Man#Scenes from an Italian Restaurant#The Stranger#New York State of Mind#For the Longest Time#Movin' Out (Anthony's Song)#Goodnight Saigon#Only the Good Die Young#Uptown Girl#Why Should I Worry#We Didn't Start the Fire#The Ballad of Billy the Kid#The River of Dreams#I've been a very big fan for a very long time lol.

It comes down to reality
And it's fine with me 'cause I've let it slide
I don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside
I don't have any reasons
I've left them all behind
I'm in a New York state of mind
It was so easy living day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and blues
But now I need a little give and take
The New York Times, The Daily News

billy joel has a real talent for writing songs that instill the unbearable urge to get on a plane to another continent. or a bus to the nearest italian restaurant.
#listening to new york state of mind and it's like yeah i know new york is underwater rn#but damn....it comes down to reality and it's fine with me 'cause i've let it slide! don't care if it's chinatown or riverside!#i don't have any reason......... i've left them all behind......... in a way i'm in a new york state of mind.#not to mention the fact that vienna waits for me like?? why does billy joel want me to travel so badly i can't afford this william

One of the few things I've ever seen that would work with Billy Joel's New York State of Mind.

Billy Joel song you're 'meh, whatever' about?
I have a few of these but if they get me at the right moment I get into it. Billy Joel always wins.
Last of the Big Time Spenders. It just doesn't go anywhere for me.
#new york state of mind is also in this category btw#i don't feel worse than this about any billy joel song
