I turned 79 yesterday and I play this all the time. I go with the beat and dance. The love of music never leaves you and it's an international language that has no boundaries.
I miss the 80s. It’s not because I was a teen and had hope but it’s because culture was fun. There was such variety in music and movies. Billy Joel wrote so many intelligent catchy songs!
Wow !! I watched the live showing of Billy Joel Sunday night. And I remember him when he had hair, man I miss the good ol'e days. But he can still play the hell out of the piano 😊
Chris, you are correct about music being subjective and I appreciate you taking the time to respond. But to say he has many songs better than this one made me cringe. Like most music lovers I can literally name my top 100 songs EVER and this is the only BJ song on it. But you are entitled to your opinion.
@@tedvenema1075 you cringed? If you’re only familiar with the stuff that made it to the radio ie his pop songs mostly 80s & 90s then you are gauging him for his mediocre commercial work. You’re entitled to your opinion. I’m not trying to change your opinion. I’m just examining whether the opinion you have formed is accurate. This would be similar to claiming that Pink Floyd’s “The Wall” is the best they ever did but never having heard: “wish you were here” “Animals” “dark side of the moon.” “Meddle” “Obscured by clouds”
A lot of classic rock artists are still releasing good music. Billy just put out a new song. Jackson Browne, Elton John, Bon Jovi and Sebastian Bach all released new songs or albums and Def Leppard had Drastic Symphonies, which was great.
I think it has to do with that at that time each of us were younger and that time was presented in an innocent way for us, more luminous where everything was possible, this in which we live, on the contrary, it is the opposite
Am I the only one in Moscow, Russia, enjoying this video in March 2024?… I do remember watching this song on Soviet TV in late 1980s when I was a kid. It was awesome! Thumbs up to this song. And great remembrance of that time in 1980s when the grass was greener, the sky was bluer and we all were much younger 👍👍👍
Впервые этот 💯 бальный клип в исполнение талантливого Билли Джоила☝️мне довелось видеть и слышать в далёком детстве. И даже сегодня эта песня и сам Билли Джоли в сердце...
I was in the shopping center the other day a guy had a shirt with Don't grow up it's a trap. I am 60 this year and i first went to a Billy Joel concert in Adelaide in the 80s i was a teenager! WHAT HAPPENED! I was so long ago.
I'm right there with you, grew up in Detroit. 1967 State Fair, saw Tom Jones on Friday night and the Supremes and the Temptations on Saturday. Nothing quite like it.

The music, the lyrics, the band, and the setting... the dream that people of all colors and all nationalities can come together joyfully and peacefully. Thank you, Billy Joel. Let's make it happen in 2022.
I have always loved this song. I love the fact that he always writes "intelligent lyrics". Lyrics that rhyme; lyrics that tell a story, lyrics that do not repeat the same phrase 32 times and bore you out of your gourd so that you never want to hear that song again.

Yes, you're right, love Billy Joels songs/songwriting; this song I hadn't heard until recently but now is one I play regularly; another favourite of mine is Leave a Tender Moment Alone (live version) with Billy Joel on the piano and Toots Thielemans playing the harmonica.🌹

My husband and I fell in love to AN INNOCENT MAN. The entire album. He brought it to my apartment for a Christmas party and we danced to every cut and he sang every word to me. We married in 1985, and we heard this song on our first anniversary a year later and said, he's done it again--this is us. Still is.
За что я люблю такие песни-они возвращают нас в счастливые времена, каждый вспоминает свою историю, причём самые светлые страницы, и каждый не может сдержать улыбки. Это очень дорого стоит. Спасибо большое, Билли, что окунул меня в это счастье.
My parents were teenagers during that time and they introduced me and my sister's to the music and movies from it including the Breakfast Club, Footloose and etc etc and we love it.
I miss this song. Sometimes it plays in my head for hours out of the days work. Seems like an anthem of every year, every decade and the lonely heart's club.
Да,60-70-80.Эти года больше не вернуться.Но хиты,шедевры тех времён останутся с нами навсегда! И как хорошо что есть возможность посмотретть и послушать любимые песни сейчас! Спасибо вам за это!
Я на концерте побывал в Ленинграде (1987). Это было что-то. Сначала Билли разулся, потом носки снял, затем забрался на рояль. Глаз от барабанщика невозможно было оторвать.
Send you an answer for what you wrote,I ARGEE WITH ALL YOU SAID! My phone won't let me do it correct,otherwise I may have typed this in Russian? or perhaps maybe ckeck?
I’m 76 and only got onto this song a week ago. I forget the name of the song and the artist but it all came to me in a dream last night. It’s absolutely brilliant!
I’m ‘only’ 70 years old, but THIS Song NEVER GETS OLD!!! Billy Joel is DEFINITELY one of our generation’s ABSOLUTE BEST & GREATEST Artists! The last two/tree generations have NO CLUE what great music is!!! Very sad!

You can't be down, sad, upset with a song like this playing. Always makes me happy and I suffer greatly from PTSD, depression, and anxiety, yet this song (and music of this period) click the happy button in my head and heart. Real music, real instruments -- that's the key I believe. That's just me.
This kind of music massively helps with my depression and anxiety too. I also am from Long Island so Billy is our big hero here. Makes me love the music even more
Мне 54. Тогда было примерно 16-17. В воздухе пахло некой непонятной "свободой". До "развала" оставалось 3 года. Как хочется опять туда - в альтернативную историю. В СССР!
Посмотрите, что происходит в Украине. Там жили счастливые, свободные люди, пока Путин все не разбомбил. Возмутительно, что вы верите государственным СМИ. Как хромую овцу вы принимаете этого преступника.
В далеком 1987 году я был на концерте Билли Джоэла в Москве. Тогда я даже взял с собой на этот концерт плеер с функцией записи и записал целую кассету его песен. Билеты просто так купить было не возможно, но нам их по большому блату достал дедушка моей тогдашней девушки. Эх, давно это было, сейчас кажется, что не в этой жизни...😊
Well i wouldnt say reading music is a must. Paul McCartney never learned to read sheet, but i would still call him a musician. Also Billy has said that he cant actually remember how to read sheet anymore. But generally i agree, one hell of a singer/player/writer!
My 18 loves 80s music. Even loves my 9 year old loves some. Before The Mummies came out. She got introduced to Walk Like An Egyptian. She still loves singing and dancing to it.
Great lyricist.. chrous or no chorus, the guy is incredibly talented by any measure. Started as the piano man, but proved he could adjust to any configuration and still be successful. One of the best to ever do it.
Я её впервые увидел в 1987 году в утренней почте. Помните, тогда в конце каждого выпуска самой последней песней была какая-то импортная? :) Вот её как-то показали. Это было ВАУ!!! :)
I love everything about this video! The lyrics are under appreciated. "A Matter Of Trust" Some love is just a lie of the heart The cold remains of what began with a passionate start And they may not want it to end But it will it's just a question of when I've lived long enough to have learned The closer you get to the fire the more you get burned But that won't happen to us Because it's always been a matter of trust I know you're an emotional girl It took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world I can't offer you proof But you're going to face a moment of truth It's hard when you're always afraid You just recover when another belief is betrayed So break my heart if you must It's a matter of trust You can't go the distance With too much resistance I know you have doubts But for God's sake don't shut me out This time you've got nothing to lose You can take it, you can leave it Whatever you choose I won't hold back anything And I'll walk a way a fool or a king Some love is just a lie of the mind It's make believe until its only a matter of time And some might have learned to adjust But then it never was a matter of trust I'm sure you're aware love We've both had our share of Believing too long When the whole situation was wrong Some love is just a lie of the soul A constant battle for the ultimate state of control After you've heard lie upon lie There can hardly be a question of why Some love is just a lie of the heart The cold remains of what began with a passionate start But that can't happen to us Because it's always been a matter of trust
What I love about this song just the magic of people being happy and feeling the freedom of nothing of what we can feel people just don't have that anymore
I agree and it breaks my heart for my young daughter. I can describe to her all the adventures of the distant past, and what life was like before being so connected to our phones, technology, etc. We watch movies of the decades past, but I think music is what truly translates how wonderful it was back then, and with music she can still experience some of what I had as a kid in the 80s/90s. Just as I got to experience my mother's music of her growing up in the ,60s 70s. Music is a wonderful thing. And billy Joel, buddy Holly, just a few of the great representations of their respective decades.
“I’ve lived long enough to have learned, the closer you get to the fire the more you get burned...” is sort of a nuanced line that was executed perfectly - vintage ‘80s
This is one of my favorite Billy Joel songs. Say what you want about the man, but he writes great songs. He's also an amazing performer. This is a rockin' video, with New York looking fantastic.
Really talented musicians/composers and their art are not bound to time and space. Just think of Mozart, Liszt, Beethoven and how "old" their work of art is... really inspired stuff is made for eternity.
Помню, в конце 80-х была телепрограмма «Мелодии и ритмы зарубежной эстрады» - и одним из ярких номеров был этот клип 👏👏👏 Реальные люди далекой страны , объединённые музыкой 🤗
Кагда Билли приезжал в СССР. Иисполнил свои трэки это было классно слушать и этот клип одна из лучших компазиций этого музыканта и автора ,только уважение...❤❤❤🦋🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🦋😎🥳🤠💘💋💋💣💥💯👍👏👏👏

Shows the positive power of music over people. His voice was perfect and how good we all looked in our youth. Getting old SUCKS - your looks go first and your body soon follows. ENJOY YOUR YOUTH - you only get one, and it's gone way too soon!
Its so good that musical geniuses start to share their talents with people at large, just to add a little speck of happiness and enjoyment in this world of ours. Even when it finally boils down to a smart marketing move.
it sure was god help our ancestors the last 3 generations have left this world worst off not like the ones before us going back 250yrs starting with us baby boomers 1945 to 1960 and each one got worse the selfish bastards that most of us are they all belong in hell thinking not only will I not be alive but so won't my grand kids great way to think fuck all them we got ours but I believe in our god and they will all suffer for internity
Как жаль!В июле 1987г. мне было 13 лет,и мы тогда с матерью отдыхали в Туапсе.Билли Джоэл как раз приезжал тогда с концертами в Москву и в Ленинград.Боже, как мне хотелось тогда побывать на его концерте в Москве!!! Конечно,я вам очень завидую,что вы там были! Это мой любимый певец.Первый американский певец, который приехал в нашу страну,и сказал уже в фильме (2000-х г.)про неё много хорошего!Он огромный талант.Браво,Билли!!!❤😊
Shadow ban me much YT? FOUR YEARS ago I posted a comment, not a SINGLE like in that time, but posts made one month ago have 179+ likes. YT is full of shit.
This song is so much deeper than it seems. Billy is singing to my soul, my life story, my heart, my mind. His talent is beyond comparison. He gets it. He just gets it. This thing we call life
Describes me and my ex relationship.... we heard together near the end of it and it made us realize we're better off friends ..speaks so many truths...❤
I am asked what individual or group is the best of my generation, and I whittle it down to the top 5, and then Billy Joel comes out on top. Put everything together, what he has done and the layers of music he has created, and he is the best. There are many other great ones, but Joel is the best.
It’s like classical music once the song starts you already know where it’s going to go but you still find it original. Obvious but I still like the Billy thing.
Как жаль что мы в то нашу счастливую и бурную молодость мы уже никогда не вернёмся но воспоминаний отои счастливой жизни мы вновь становимся все теми молодыми как и тода всем привет молодеж СССР с наступающим Новым годом 🎸👥👥👥✊

Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
And they may not want it to end
But it will it's just a question of when
I've lived long enough to have learned
The closer you get to the fire, the more you get burned
But that won't happen to us
'Cause it's always been a matter of trust
Now I know you're an emotional girl
It took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world
Well, I can't offer you proof
But you're gonna face a moment of truth
It's hard when you're always afraid
You just recover when another belief is betrayed
So break my heart if you must
It's a matter of trust
You can't go the distance
With too much resistance
I know you have doubts
But for God's sake, don't shut me out
This time you've got nothing to lose
You can take it, you can leave it, whatever you choose
I won't hold back anything
And I'll walk a way a fool or a king
Some love is just a lie of the mind
It's make-believe until it's only a matter of time
And some might have learned to adjust
But then it never was a matter of trust
I'm sure you're aware, love
We've both had our share of
Believing too long
When the whole situation was wrong
Some love is just a lie of the soul
A constant battle for the ultimate state of control
After you've heard lie upon lie
There can hardly be a question of why
Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
But that can't happen to us
'Cause it's always been a matter of trust
It's a matter of trust
Oh, it's been a matter of trust
It's a matter of trust
'Cause it's always been a matter of trust
❤
Спасибо ❤
Cool, thanks for the lyrics.

2:17 "You can't go the distance with too much resistance I know you have doubts, but for god sakes don't shut me out" - Killer line,...just killer!

That's why am pasting my personal email address here via: billyjoel00125@gmail.com to enable you share your opinions about my songs or send personal message you wish to share with me. I can't still appreciate everyone of you enough for the unconditional love and massive supports ❤️ it's because of you am here today. I hope you won't stop listening and supporting my songs.

He’s the best as I can say cos he got a lot of great song as am so down is underrated … Hi Kim
My husband and I fell in love to AN INNOCENT MAN. The entire album. He brought it to my apartment for a Christmas party and we danced to every cut and he sang every word to me. We married in 1985, and we heard this song on our first anniversary a year later and said, he's done it again--this is us.
Still is.
За что я люблю такие песни-они возвращают нас в счастливые времена, каждый вспоминает свою историю, причём самые светлые страницы, и каждый не может сдержать улыбки. Это очень дорого стоит. Спасибо большое, Билли, что окунул меня в это счастье.
Слушаю эту песню миллион раз с 1987го и никогда не приедается. Пусть эта песня играет на моих поминках.
❤ 70s/80s were the best years to me. ¹ Kids today will never experience the simple way of fun 😮😂✌🏻
🙁
My parents were teenagers during that time and they introduced me and my sister's to the music and movies from it including the Breakfast Club, Footloose and etc etc and we love it.
Thanks for your comments and support
People who had to adult through the 70's and 80's likely don't remember them as "a simple way of fun".
Клип на все времена! Браво!
Был не Его концерте в СКК в 87 г Когда он приезжал ещё в Ленинград , реально Крутой Чувак , Может петь разными Тембрами на два Голоса

Да не то слово, цыганочку станцевать можно под такую песенку...
This song is a masterpiece.
It is.
You got that shit right!
yes it is
I love Billy Joel. All his songs.
You know that's right!!
Even Paul McCartney 2:01 & Ringo Starr 1:38 surrendered to Billy Joel and this musical masterpiece!!!!
Билли уже за одну эту песню тебе надо ставить памятник. Ты ворвался в мир эстрады этим шедевром , ты крутой....
Это секс
Да это шевревально,бриошшно
Интересно чо слушает тетя, которая в конце орала SHUT UUP!@
Mundo Rock Tbm Tem Guitarra Na Música Mano.
Эта песня и есть памятник.
Billy Joel the Soundtrack of almost 50 years. All my life I was Immersed in his song and voice of my Generation!💋✝️
Первый раз услышал этот шедевр более 30 лет назад .и ,прослушав сегодня,понял,что эта вещь бессмертна!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tak jest.
И я! Мне почти 60, а этот шедевр можно слушать всегда и не надоест!
Как и многие другие вещи!
Billy Joel фигню петь не будет!!!Класс!!!!
Это точно!)
Could you IMAGINE?? RUNNING INTO BILLY JOEL LIVE LIKE THIS?!?!?!? It actually makes me emotional. The world just isn't the same.
I miss this song. Sometimes it plays in my head for hours out of the days work. Seems like an anthem of every year, every decade and the lonely heart's club.
Me To !
Да,60-70-80.Эти года больше не вернуться.Но хиты,шедевры тех времён останутся с нами навсегда! И как хорошо что есть возможность посмотретть и послушать любимые песни сейчас! Спасибо вам за это!

Не обычный голос, не обычная песня и живая музыка и люди классные, какие молодцы! Вот же класс
да.браво всем,кто ещё чувствует и не стентяется радоваться жизни
Я на концерте побывал в Ленинграде (1987). Это было что-то. Сначала Билли разулся, потом носки снял, затем забрался на рояль. Глаз от барабанщика невозможно было оторвать.
😊👍❤️
Send you an answer for what you wrote,I ARGEE WITH ALL YOU SAID! My phone won't let me do it correct,otherwise I may have typed this in Russian? or perhaps maybe ckeck?

I’m 76 and only got onto this song a week ago. I forget the name of the song and the artist but it all came to me in a dream last night. It’s absolutely brilliant!
I’m ‘only’ 70 years old, but THIS Song NEVER GETS OLD!!! Billy Joel is DEFINITELY one of our generation’s ABSOLUTE BEST & GREATEST Artists! The last two/tree generations have NO CLUE what great music is!!! Very sad!
Better late than never
How did the 80's slip through our fingers without us noticing it. Oh, how I wished we could have stop the time back then!
I've told the kids I work with that I would like to go back to 1983 or 1984 and live there permanently.

The fact that his weakest album can still produce great bangers like this goes to show how great of a musician Billy Joel is
@@TViking4 I really appreciate your comments and support
Silly me for asking…..but what was his weakest album?
@@TViking4 I really appreciate your comments
@@hermano4242 Personally I consider it to be the Bridge, which is where this song is from
@@TViking4 Good to know. 👍
Наши детство и юность-это как раз конец 1970-х-1980-е.

Полностью с вами согласен 👍🤘😋
I love it at 1:07 when his (then) wife Christie Brinkley walks in with their baby daughter and he gives her such a sweet look. 🥰
Yeah. He was clearly smitten with her. I hate it didn't work out for them.

You can't be down, sad, upset with a song like this playing. Always makes me happy and I suffer greatly from PTSD, depression, and anxiety, yet this song (and music of this period) click the happy button in my head and heart. Real music, real instruments -- that's the key I believe. That's just me.
👍👍👍👍👍Stevie B
Nice
This kind of music massively helps with my depression and anxiety too. I also am from Long Island so Billy is our big hero here. Makes me love the music even more

Мне 54. Тогда было примерно 16-17. В воздухе пахло некой непонятной "свободой". До "развала" оставалось 3 года. Как хочется опять туда - в альтернативную историю. В СССР!

Да могли бы спасти тогда свою страну,деды воевали,а мы прос....,ло слез😂
I wish I could have been there! I would have been the first one to start dancing. Love the honesty of his lyrics. Amazing artist.
Я бы тоже танцевала)))❤
Хорошо что было такое время когда была такая музыка. Браво

Там жили счастливые, свободные люди, пока Путин все не разбомбил. Возмутительно, что вы верите государственным СМИ.

В далеком 1987 году я был на концерте Билли Джоэла в Москве. Тогда я даже взял с собой на этот концерт плеер с функцией записи и записал целую кассету его песен. Билеты просто так купить было не возможно, но нам их по большому блату достал дедушка моей тогдашней девушки. Эх, давно это было, сейчас кажется, что не в этой жизни...😊
так и та Америка не в этой жизни)) Она уже непонятно в какой жизни..
Я то же.
🤝
Thanks for sharing. I saw Billy Joel in New Jersey in 1987. Amazing concert.
- У Билли Джоэла...
- Что? Какой кошмар!..
- Да нет, у Билли Джоэла...
- Лучше бы меня убили!
- Ты не поняла! У Билли Джоэла - гастроли в СССР!
A true artist . The man can actually read music. Writes his own stuff . Has written for other musicians also.
Such an incredible song and amazing songwriter! Super talented musician!
Yeap. Actually read music.
Well i wouldnt say reading music is a must. Paul McCartney never learned to read sheet, but i would still call him a musician. Also Billy has said that he cant actually remember how to read sheet anymore. But generally i agree, one hell of a singer/player/writer!
Liberty rocks
I don't care what anyone says, the EIGHTIES were GREAT!
Naysayers are just jealous they didn't get to experience it.
I was born in 1962 and i have always said that the 80s had the BEST MUSIC around so yes i totally agree with you.
💯 agree ‼️
My 18 loves 80s music. Even loves my 9 year old loves some. Before The Mummies came out. She got introduced to Walk Like An Egyptian. She still loves singing and dancing to it.
My dad named me after Toto's song he just spelled it differently.
Адреналин сразу зашкаливает.. Какие были времена, в самом деле мы молодые слушали то что нужно и читали тоже что надо..
Солидарна с вами! Сама себе завидую,что моя молодость прошла под эти песни...
Точно сказано!
Тонка-правильная музыка,правильные книги,хотя все это кроме нас ни кому ненужно жаль😤
Базара НЕТ!!!
А теперь мы слушаем ее с дочкой😍
Great lyricist.. chrous or no chorus, the guy is incredibly talented by any measure. Started as the piano man, but proved he could adjust to any configuration and still be successful. One of the best to ever do it.
Песня моего детства помню рано утром проснулся и готовился к школе и увидел это клип, Сейчас мне 44 г но также я балдею от этого шедевра.
Мне 40, тоже самое было.
И мне 44) июнь
А я перед работой слушал. 54))
I was born in 1969 grew up in the 80’s first time I heard this song I loved it got me through some tough times so many memories with this song
Rough times come with living in a cave. 😅😅
I agree with you because you are my age!👍🙏
Это настоящая классика. Слушаю в любое время с удовольствием. А муж просто в восторге! Спасибо!
Кончай!

Я её впервые увидел в 1987 году в утренней почте. Помните, тогда в конце каждого выпуска самой последней песней была какая-то импортная? :) Вот её как-то показали. Это было ВАУ!!! :)
Just turned 65 and still crank this
64 here.. I can't hear it.. crank it up louder!
I’m still at a loss why this song wasn’t a huge hit. It’s awesome
Same
I bought that record I thought it was .
One of BJ's most underrated songs, IMO. One of my favorites.
IT IS!! This Classic came out in 1986!
#10 in the Billboard chart, not bad
I love everything about this video! The lyrics are under appreciated.
"A Matter Of Trust"
Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
And they may not want it to end
But it will it's just a question of when
I've lived long enough to have learned
The closer you get to the fire the more you get burned
But that won't happen to us
Because it's always been a matter of trust
I know you're an emotional girl
It took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world
I can't offer you proof
But you're going to face a moment of truth
It's hard when you're always afraid
You just recover when another belief is betrayed
So break my heart if you must
It's a matter of trust
You can't go the distance
With too much resistance
I know you have doubts
But for God's sake don't shut me out
This time you've got nothing to lose
You can take it, you can leave it
Whatever you choose
I won't hold back anything
And I'll walk a way a fool or a king
Some love is just a lie of the mind
It's make believe until its only a matter of time
And some might have learned to adjust
But then it never was a matter of trust
I'm sure you're aware love
We've both had our share of
Believing too long
When the whole situation was wrong
Some love is just a lie of the soul
A constant battle for the ultimate state of control
After you've heard lie upon lie
There can hardly be a question of why
Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
But that can't happen to us
Because it's always been a matter of trust
So sweet as I can say Kathleen. Hello Dear
Thank you!
Thank you!!
Спасибо❤
Ух ты ж ничего себе!!!!! Спасибо! Thank You!!!!
What I love about this song just the magic of people being happy and feeling the freedom of nothing of what we can feel people just don't have that anymore
I agree and it breaks my heart for my young daughter. I can describe to her all the adventures of the distant past, and what life was like before being so connected to our phones, technology, etc. We watch movies of the decades past, but I think music is what truly translates how wonderful it was back then, and with music she can still experience some of what I had as a kid in the 80s/90s. Just as I got to experience my mother's music of her growing up in the ,60s 70s. Music is a wonderful thing. And billy Joel, buddy Holly, just a few of the great representations of their respective decades.
@@crystaldaffron5857 Thanks,I really do appreciate you been my fan and I will love to hear from you
“I’ve lived long enough to have learned, the closer you get to the fire the more you get burned...” is sort of a nuanced line that was executed perfectly - vintage ‘80s
This is one of my favorite Billy Joel songs. Say what you want about the man, but he writes great songs. He's also an amazing performer. This is a rockin' video, with New York looking fantastic.
Впервые увидел клип когда собирался в школу в первую смену! Уже 42 года! Слушаю до сих пор! Стоит на будильнике! 😊
Мне 55. Слушаю 🤪
До слез😢
Эх молодежь, мне 65 и тоже смотрю этот клип с переводчиком на яндексе для поднятия настроения.
Красава! Не предавай идеалы детства и юности! Респект

Ещё в утренней почте показывали😊
И мы тогда думали что все у них там отличное и музыка и кино.. Кто бы знал что это лучшее...
Наконец то. Я тоже помню. Мне лет 9. Казахстан. Эта песня в душу запала. Год где-то 87

Its so good that musical geniuses start to share their talents with people at large, just to add a little speck of happiness and enjoyment in this world of ours. Even when it finally boils down to a smart marketing move.

Эту Америку, т.е Штаты, такие Штаты мы все помним и такие любим и помним! Но эти Штаты ушли, и ушли похоже безвозратно! Очень ЖАЛЬ!
The song, the time, the location, the people.....always makes me think back when the world was a better place to live in...
it sure was god help our ancestors the last 3 generations have left this world worst off not like the ones before us going back 250yrs starting with us baby boomers 1945 to 1960 and each one got worse the selfish bastards that most of us are they all belong in hell thinking not only will I not be alive but so won't my grand kids great way to think fuck all them we got ours but I believe in our god and they will all suffer for internity
Feel like I'm living these lyrics...Definitely one of the greatest songwriters of all time.
Yeah one of the best

Так обратите внимание, что мир в целом был добрее
Shadow ban me much YT? FOUR YEARS ago I posted a comment, not a SINGLE like in that time, but posts made one month ago have 179+ likes. YT is full of shit.
This song is so much deeper than it seems. Billy is singing to my soul, my life story, my heart, my mind. His talent is beyond comparison. He gets it. He just gets it. This thing we call life

Это просто БОМБА... Высший пилотаж... Обожаю эту вещь... С ума сходили от неë...
I am asked what individual or group is the best of my generation, and I whittle it down to the top 5, and then Billy Joel comes out on top. Put everything together, what he has done and the layers of music he has created, and he is the best. There are many other great ones, but Joel is the best.
The words, the melody, the arrangement, the vocals, everything is perfect here.
GENIUS.❤ HART FOR N.YORK..
I fell in love with this song when the LP was released. And I still love it! Thank you, Billy and one of the tightest bands ever.
This man is amazing 👏
Got "Songs From the Attic" out of a bargain rack in the early 80's. Think I paid $6 for it. One of my better fiscal decisions.😁
@@nobodysbaby5048 found it at the library on cassette. Spent a Saturday cleaning the garage and growing up on Billy Joel.
Would you still love the song if your girlfriend left the cassette in your stereo system along with a note?
It’s like classical music once the song starts you already know where it’s going to go but you still find it original. Obvious but I still like the Billy thing.
Как и 35 лет назад слушаю эту бессмертную песню с огромным удовольствием!
Точно говоришь!!!!
