So Beatles inspired. And done with originality. This one more lennonesque but I think of Billy as our American McCartney. Listen to through the long night another deep cut gem. He is a great songwriter‼️
been to 17 BJ concerts, never saw him do this song. but heard him do it one time during a soundcheck in Winston-Salem in 1999. heard it from outside the arena.
I played this song to my brother when I first got the album. I said it reminds me of John Lennon a lot. He said what do you mean. And then “oh woh woh”.
This is one of Billy's many underrated gems.
exactly!!

Who ever filmed this song, THANK YOU !!
It is a "hidden gem."
You're very welcome!

My favorite Billy Joel song. Please play this next time you're in Philadelphia.
30 Billy concerts and still haven’t caught this live 🙁
Amazing to think that Billy has sung every song from "The Nylon Curtain" snice his MSG Residency started.
He could just do it front to back and I'd be happy!
Why is that so amazing…any knucklehead would know that album was a kick arse from start to finish
Everyone has a 'Laura' in their life.
love this song
Meu nome, srs
I'm sure I read somewhere this was wriiten about his Mother,,,not sure how true tha is,xx
there is another video clip on the VEVO channel which BJ vaguely explains its meaning...
Its very true! Confirmed by himself and his daughter.
Today the song could be called "hillary" lol.
Don't think he'd ever do that since he is a democrat ;)
noone is perfect lol
mrbob424 That makes sense...🙄
ah yes, "hillary" definitely has the same number of syllables as "mother", you understand the song and don't have brain worms
