Oh man....you're going to draw the ire of the music critics here by picking We Didn't Start the FireSlow down you crazy child
There are so many great Billy Joel songs. Piano Man, NY State of Mind, My Life, Only the Good Die Young, We Didn't Start the Fire, and Uptown Girl are some of my favorites.
My number 1 is You're my Home. My wife and I listened to that song over and over on my car's 8 track player and we had the title engraved onto our wedding rings.
Piano Man if it was not so overplayed is an amazing song

Funny thing about that song is that it wasn't super popular when it was initially released. It evolved into his trademark song after he became more populate later in the 70s.
Reminds me of 1982 my last semester when the radio stations were playing some old Doors songs....I took English 102 finally and a young freshman was talking about this great new band called the Doors....she was shocked when I told her that Jim Morrison died 1971.That is an interesting bit of information.
Reminds me of a converation I had at a bar with I guess a millenial.
She was talking about Bon Jovi and Bruce. She was saying how Bon Jovi is way bigger and better. I was like... uh no. There is no comparison.
Reality changes over time.

Billy Joel was familiar with Allentown because he played in the Lehigh Valley when he was an unknown. IIRC, he played at the Roxy Theatre in Northampton.Allentown because I live in Allentown. I realize that it wasn't the best portrayal, but it gave the city recognition. I remember that our mayor at the time, Joe Daddona, asked for royalties.
He also played at many frat parties at Lehigh...in an interview he spoke of those days and how he wanted to make a song about Bethlehem.....but Allentown rhymed better.Billy Joel was familiar with Allentown because he played in the Lehigh Valley when he was an unknown.

This song got so much abuse which I think is totally unfair. It's Billy's riff on Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. Love the video too, thought it was a great effect when the engines on the motorcycles rev, and the bike headlights and the headlights of the cars on the lifts come on. A little thing but I always thought it was well done.
Not a big music fan so I learn about it on this board!Vienna is my favorite song.
