We kept our passion and our pride somehow even despite that comedy of errors at the end of the previous take. Love this tune by Billy Joel!

Видеоклипы
My younger daughter had very troubled teenage years, full of anxiety, depression and self harm. I sent her this song and said it made me think of her and when she listened to it, she just cried.
She is now a wonderful, confident, clever and beautiful young woman in her mid 20s but every time I hear this song, it brings the tears.
Great cover, many thanks.
I'm not a young man. And last year, I was listening to this song a whole bunch for some reason (I wouldn't have thought of it as my favorite Joel song)-- but I thought a kind of bookend would be to alter the lyrics to fit the same narrator, talking to the same person, but toward the end of the second person's life, and making that second person more reflective of what's happened since that song came out. (I also had the anxiety, depression, and self harm). Perhaps extra poetic that he wrote this about his father.
Here. You can be the only person that will ever see this (if that). The phrasing is a bit off, but works if you find it:
Hurry up, you lazy child
You were kinda ambitious for a little while
And we know you're so smart
But also know you're really afraid
You put out the fire, gained worry and doubt
There's a lot less to you since it burned you out
So much you won't do and
Oh too many hours in the day-ay-ay
And now that the truth is told
You didn't get what you want
But you sure got old
You never really kicked off and now your time is almost due
I think you realize.. Vienna wasn't for you
Hurry up; you've still got time
You could be much more than jokes
After a bot'le of wine.
It's just not that romantic to be borderline for life
"A shame", describes the life you lead
There's panic and sadness and unmet need
You always thought you were wrong
And wouldn't stand up for what's right
You had no passion, you had no pride
There was never any hope of being satisfied
Live on, and those debts will all come due
Why don't you realize.. Vienna's not for you
Hurry up, you lazy child
Your phone hasn't rung in a very long while
So what? It's not like it bothers you
I think you realize... Vienna don't want you
And now that the truth is told
You didn't get what you want
And you got so old
You never really kicked off and now your time is almost through-ooh-ooh
Now that you realize... Vienna's not for you
When did you realize.. Vienna ain't for you?
@@Kauffy901 Hi Kauffy901.
I'm so sorry to hear that you suffered similar mental health problems to my daughter and I hope this song, in all its forms, brings you some solace.
You obviously have a way with words/lyrics and I feel humbled that you felt you could share this work with me.
Take care and all the best.
i’m nearly eighteen and i cry every time i listen to this song because i remember when i was 14 and depressed, anxious and with very bad self harming. now it brings me peace knowing i’m okay and happy❤️
Hi eysebeia, I'm so sorry to hear of the difficulties you had but happy that this song brought you solace and that you are working through the bad times.
I was with my daughter a few days ago and she still loves this song. Music can be such a healing factor in all our lives.
All the best and take care.
@@Rjhs001 my best wishes for you 🫶🏻
That first harmonized “hmmmm-mmmm”: mind-blowing.
So well done.
Yes. Stunning!
This is one of my favorite songs. Beautiful job.
Thank you for your reaction. It was you who drew my attention to these sublime harmonies.
I’m convinced that Toni has actual magic in those fingers.
Level of difficulty is high on this one.
She's such an underrated guitar player.
Magic fingers of Guitar Lady
Toni is awesome.
You two make me remember the world is not total horror but full of beauty
Well, ladies this is one of your absolute best ever.
To take a piano song play it on acoustic guitars and also add harmonies, breathes new life into one of my all time favorites. You did Billy Joel proud.
It does my heart good to hear a Sunday song from Elle and Toni. Sundays have been missing you guys. Even better when Elle says “See you next week.”
Call me Vienna because I wait for you every Sunday.😊 When you bestow your lovely singing and playing upon us, you always bring many smiles and lots of inspiration. Thank you, Elle and Toni. Wishing you a wonderful week ahead.
It’s five in the morning here in Europe, and I’m on the bus to work. This makes my start into the week so much better, thank you! ❤
In Europe. Perhaps in… Vienna? 😊
@@mikelsikel73 About 800km to the Northwest. 😊
Proper music from two proper musicians. The world is a better place for your presence and talent.
Great to hear your voices (and guitars) together again! Thank you, ladies!
I agree, it is such a beautiful song.
GREAT choice!! Billy himself says it’s in his top 5 favourite Billy Joel songs. Your beautiful singing and playing is only overshadowed by your exquisite musical taste…LOVED IT!❤
Simply outstanding! The guitar work is amazing and the harmonies are rich.
As a massive Billy Joel fan, I am normally really picky about people covering his songs, but that was absolutely beautiful. From the quality of the guitar playing to the vocals and harmonies, I can't fault a single thing. Absolutely stunning! Well done x
Billy Joel is awesome but I love the female voices. Beautiful!
wow! this is one of my favorite songs of all time and one I often share at karaoke. this is my first time stumbling upon y’all, and I am enchanted. thanks for your offering!!
My new Elle/Toni favorite. NAILED it.
How blessed that you would return to our Sundays in the middle of this insomnia-filled night for me. I couldn't wish for better company. Thank you 💛
I just got old … but got more than I had I imagined. Thanks for the beautiful rendition of one of my favorite songs.
I’ve worked very hard to quit worrying about my grandchildren’s future as I know there is little I can do to change the world that’s coming. At least the future will have Elle and Toni making music in it.
Oneof my favorites Billy Joel tunes... underated in my opinion.
Loved the harmonies in this : )
Even he’s surprised at how popular a deep cut is after all these years. It’s still in his set list and the crowd always pops when he starts it.
I love these two. Cool tune. Nice arrangement and well played.
Apparently the youtube algorithm brought me hear after listening to Vienna 4,000 times. Good job, I love it! 💚
Where are they? Busy on tour? I miss their music and fun they seem to have together.
Love the way you nailed that tune ❤also loved the laughs on that outtake❤
youz are good people
thanks for sharing
Wonderful singing and playing. Thanks for bringing the smiles, I've missed you two :D
So excite. Happy Sunday ❤
Beautiful. Billy, I'm sure, has to be impressed. Thank you for this performance. 🤩
Amazing performance both of you!!👏🏽👏🏽❤️❤️🎤🎤🎸🎸🎶🎶🥰🥰
Great job. I miss hearing you every Sunday. Without you I never would have started playing music again.
I love, love, love Billy Joel. And thats one of his best. Well done.
I have MISSED YOU!!!!! Sundays are perfect with your songs. This one is my generation of nostalgia and I am so glad to see it coming around again!!!
The guitar playing is like butter. 🤌
My all time favorite song and my favorite modern musicians. Lovely.
Sweet, sweet, sweet! My ears are pleased - my soul is satisfied!
There are no mistakes, only happy accidents....Bob Ross
Bob's hair though ... kind of a mistake. 😅
Yes.
@@kerryc5821 Just a sign of the times he was filming in.
@@kerryc5821 50 years from today people are going to say the same about tattoos and hockey picks in earlobes.
Pucks*
Hope to see you two posting another video here soon--these have been great!
Only a fool is satisfied😊 i can never get enough of you two❤
Where are you? We miss you and your original songs.
Yes, we do
Wonderful. Love Toni's guitar style and the out-take was a hoot. You ladies represent everything right with the world and humanity. Thanks.
ha ha ha love the song, love the last words "now you know we can play it" , we already knew 🥰
Thank you both for making me smile on an otherwise crappy day.
So wonderful to hear and see you both again! Love this song and how you do it! Love you guys!
Wow, so good. One of my favorite Billy Joel songs. I love that you would cover a lesser known Billy Joel song.
One of Billy's favorites, too, according to himself.
Love my Billy Joel, this song is a fav. Very cool that you play it on guitar. I play it piano from sheet. It's not a simple song. Good job Toni! You two rock!
Ah man - this is such a great cover of a brilliant song. I used to list to the BJ album a lot when I was a kid and this brought back lots of pleasant memories. Thanks
They rock
Awesome work ladies!!! I love it....
Today you made me cry. Being 21, really resonated; and your arrangement was excellent. Love what you do!
Wow that was my favorite....... thank you guys
I have never heard the original, but this mind blowingly beautiful.
You should really listen to it. The Stranger is one of my top 5 albums of all time.
You two take songs for which I never cared much, and turn them into beautiful, life-affirming gems. Thanks.
My favorite song off of one of the best pop albums ever recorded. Fantastic rendition.
Beautiful Elle and Toni! Billy Joel is from Long Island New York and loves and has performed in Montauk New York where our family has a home. 🌊 🏄♂ 🏖 🎹 👍
I have been playing this song on my guitar for 10 days straight, and then this treat!
Synchronicity is a sure sign someone up there loves you!
Peace
Never tried to play Synchronicity 😅, but then I’m not big on the Police 😜
This is one of the best covers I have ever heard.
WOW!!! Incredible!! Toni hits every note perfectly!! The arpeggiated chords, just the chords themselves, just beautifully done!! Thanks again ladies!!
This one put a big smile on my face! Vienna is my all time favorite Billy Joel song and I'm proud to say I've seen him perform it numerus times (most recently here at Madison Square Garden). Great job! Thanks!
Thank God! You're back!!! It's amazing!!!
You young ladies are just the best! Both the music and the mirth.
Beautiful, and one of my all time favorite songs! Thanks for sharing.
Such a wonderful laid-back song by a couple of wonderful laid-back ladies. Could the melody and harmony have been any better? Nope…can’t imagine how! Easy listening at its best. So calming. Thanks you, ma’ams. More, please…much more.
That is such a beautiful. Billy Joel… one of my all time favorite artists! Wonderful cover cover - Great job!
Your “Vienna” earned you a subscription. Well done. Beautiful.
This is my all time favorite song and you guys do it SO WELLLL

Simple like clear cool mountain water and, as always, refreshing. Good form, well done.

I don’t think I ever heard this song before but I love it. At least when you guys do it. Happy Sunday to you.
I love your style... amazing harmony and such gifted musicians! Thank you!
One of my fav Billy Joel tunes, too. ❤ And a cool guitar arrangement - nice work, ladies! 😃😃😃
This is one of the most beautiful covers in the history of most beautiful covers ❤
Wow! Amazing! Elle’s solos are excellent and their harmonies together are beautiful! Talented duo! Brilliant, heart ringing, and fun!
Seeing you two play together is always so delightful. Great song choice too!
My favorite Billy Joel song
Came here because of a silly video about fonts. Stayed because of some brilliant minds and some brilliant music. :) Thanks for sharing your warmth and talents, it inspires me to go make something.
You two great! Loved that ending. Thank you for sharing that. 😊
Exquisite cover of one of my favourite Billy Joel songs - thank you both so much for sharing
Es hermoso lo que hacen estas mujeres! Que temazo

Today was a pretty great Sunday, and this performance made it even better ❤❤
Wow! There you are again presenting this fine art piece of music and craftsmanship 😊. Missed your weekly "Happy Sundays" - coffee-greetings-sessions so much! Welcome back on YOUR STAGE 🎉❤ (early morning in Germany)
Your voice is sounding so much better the older you get and her guitar playing just blows me away
I'll say it every damn time...I love you guys. I could watch and listen to you two all day. Love watching Elle sing and Toni play.
I've listened to this about 50 times and the last one is the best one so far.
Sempre incríveis... bom demais
Beautiful song and your voices blend so well together. Nice outtake too 😊
one of those ones you know is gonna b e perfect before the first note even rings...beautifully done 😊(also always love seeing the outtakes...makes us all feel in good company 😅)
Such a cool version, thanks for sharing!
It was fun listening to you and to watch those likes climb (and climb again) as you sang "Slow down you crazy child". I'll now turn my attention to the song and your interpretation of it. Thank you very much.
one of my faves, so glad I found you two 💕
Love this more than original but going to find the album in RUclips while I’m choring! Sounds excellent 👏🏼
Just WOW! Always wondered what Vienna would sound like on a guitar but never had the personal talent to find out. Thank you...
Great job ladies, one of Billy Joel's best.Please do more.
I agree, such a beautiful cover! I create covers on my channel too, it would be great if you could take a look. Thank you! :)
You both done a great job of that song. Sounds amazing. Thank you...
Wow! Absolutely wonder cover. Toni nailed that solo.
Proper way to start the week with a stunning cover. Thank you. Love the outtake.
