Well if you are looking for a challenge this is the song for you. The first track on his 1973 album Piano Man which is only his second album released. In reality the song is not super complicated, however, the tempo is crazy fast which makes it much more difficult. The middle section of the accompaniment that I used is not an exact representation of what Billy is playing here. The piano is not able to be heard over the banjo in particular so I listened to some other live performances and made a variation that is even more difficult 😊 I wanted it to be something that mimicked the banjo part somewhat and would sound great if you were playing without a band. Everything else is as I heard it especially that great piano solo by Billy. Please don't let this song intimidate you to the point you don't give it a shot, taking it slow and being patient you can definitely play this at least close to tempo the they are here.

Due to copyright infringement issues and video blocking I am unable to create RUclips videos for many of the suggestions that I receive in the comments section. I do, however, create videos and MIDI files just like on my channel for clients who would like a specific piano part transcribed for any video or audio file!
Billy Joel best singer songwriter ever with both lyrics & music!!!!!
He is a legend for sure, he wrote songs you knew would last forever when you heard them for the first time. Thanks for watching!
He’s standing really next to Stevie Wonder in your description… at least, to me
@@poderes I can respect that.
악보에 피아노 건반까지 훌륭하네요. 좋아하는 빌리조엘이라서 너무 잘 봤어요. 감사합니다.
I'm so glad you found it helpful! Thank you for watching.
Fantastic! I've always love this song but it´s the first time that I can see how difficult it's to play for all! Thanks for your time to share and see what´s happening on the piano. Billy is the best
I'm glad you enjoyed it. This was one of those that I didn't realize how difficult it would be until I got into it myself. I loved this era in Billy Joel history.
Gotta learn this and put my classical skills to practice. This is nice.❤
You definitely need those classical skills to tackle this! Hope this helps.
So cool! How do you do these? I am hoping you can do Souvenir from Old Grey Whistle.
So it's a lot to explain which means I probably need to do a video for it. I'm pretty old school so I just listen to the recording and hopefully I can figure out what's going on. The better the recording the more likely I am able to recreate what's going on. I'll check out this song because I'm not familiar with it. Thanks for watching!
@@chrisbarkerpiano just listen? Do you slow it down at all? It’s impressive if you can just listen to a song like this and transcribe it note for note.
@@chrisbarkerpiano and you’re welcome!
Thankyou! I’m so excited to find this!
So glad! I hope it helps you learn this great song.
Your ear is incredible, man.
It guess this doesn't matter since he has a full band but it's a shame he doesn't throw some stride in there with his left hand.
Thanks so much! I have never thought of that but it definitely would sound really cool with a pared-down band. It would also make this so much more difficult too! Thanks for watching and stay tuned
I guess a stride left hand would be too hard at this speed and a bit heavy in the mix? The right hand is the showy one. Plus Billy isn't a stride player and wouldn't claim to be.
Oo look! Real musicians! Making real music!
Awesome tutorial. Can you do Miami 2017(Seen The Lights Go Out On Broadway)?
Thanks so much...I will definitely look into that song, I have been wanting to do more Billy Joel songs so I will put that one on my list. Thanks for watching!
This is awesome! thanks so much
My pleasure, hope I can offer some in future you like as well.
@@chrisbarkerpiano Some recommendations that might be cool: root beer rag, falling of the rain, ballad of billy the kid and perhaps the live version of new york state of mind, live at greenvale 1977
@@myotis_9324 Perfect, I will check all these out for sure. Thanks
@@chrisbarkerpiano Awesome to hear, looking forward to them!
This is great! Thnx!!
My pleasure
