    Lyrics:
    You have to learn to pace yourself
    Pressure
    You're just like everybody else
    Pressure
    You've only had to run so far
    So good
    But you will come to a place
    Where the only thing you feel
    Are loaded guns in your face
    And you'll have to deal with
    Pressure
    You used to call me paranoid
    Pressure
    But even you cannot avoid
    Pressure
    You turned the tap dance into your crusade
    Now here you are with your faith
    And your Peter Pan advice
    You have no scars on your face
    And you cannot handle
    Pressure

    This *filmed* concert is the best evidence of how unfortunate the move to digital concert filming was, at least in the late 80s and 90s when the resolution and optics were still subpar. Shame to think of the amazing concerts (Queen, Prince, etc.) that were shot on videotape and look like rubish today. And then you see something like this. Incredible contrast, resolution, fidelity, color balance, etc.

      Liberty DeVitto just crushes on this track. Played with Billy Joel for 30 years, and now has The Lords of 52nd Street with the other members of the Billy Joel band, Cannata (sax), and Javors (Guitar) (the bassist, Stegmeyer, unfortunately passed in 1995). They still tour without Billy Joel, and play all those songs - would love to see them live

  • @porpus99
    @porpus99 9 лет назад +12

    Billy Joel did several concerts in Russia. At the first one in Moscow there was a little incident. During this very song the crowd was cheering and dancing, but every time the lights came on they would freeze and return to a stationary position, as they feared they would get in trouble. It was sapping energy from the show, and Billy had a melt down where he upturned his keyboards and smashed a microphone stand against his grand piano.

    Man that David LeBolt is fantastic on the keyboards! It’s too bad only us really know who he is! The new generation has too much of a lack of music appreciation! And...Yes Liberty! If there was a Billy Joel action figure set,Liberty would be the first icon I’d buy! Mark Rivera,next level talent and that man gets that crowd moving with his unstoppable energy! I’ve also gotta give credit to some of the greatest background singers in the business Pete Hewlett (check out his acoustic performance of An Innocent man on RUclips!) and George Simms (Brother of Frank Simms (The Kool Aid Man,Oh Yeahhh!!!) Russell Javors And Kevin Dukes keep the rhythm steady And of course Rip Doug Stegmeyer! If there’s a path between music and euphoria then your bass is truly the bridge! Lastly props to the crowd! Despite everyone’s indifferences,I’ve seen no better display of love,support and humanity! All because of you Billy Joel!

    Billy at about the pinnacle of his performing career.....running all over the stage, frenetic....the Storm front tour had a little of that, but the old band was gone for the most part and he was a getting up there in age. The Bridge tour was the end of his best years as a performance artist IMO. still solid later on of course but this tour in 1986/87 was the end of the very high energy shows of his youth.

    Pressure/Billy Joel
    You have to learn to pace yourself
    Pressure
    You're just like everybody else
    You've only had to run so far
    So good
    But you will come to a place
    Where the only thing you feel
    Are loaded guns in your face
    And you'll have to deal with
    You used to call me paranoid
    But even you cannot avoid
    You turned the tap dance into your crusade
    Now here you are with your faith
    And your Peter Pan advice
    You have no scars on your face
    And you cannot handle
    All grown up and no place to go
    Psych 1, Psych 2
    What do you know?
    All your life is Channel 13
    Sesame Street
    What does it mean?
    (I'll tell you what it means)
    Don't ask for help
    You're all alone
    You'll have to answer To your own
    I'm sure you'll have some cosmic rationale
    But here you are in the ninth
    Two men out and three men on
    Nowhere to look but inside
    Where we all respond to
    All your life is Time Magazine
    I read it too
    What does it mean?
    I'm sure you'll have some cosmic rationale
    But here you are with your faith
    And your Peter Pan advice
    You have no scars on your face
    And you cannot handle
    One,two,three,four
