Steve, as an unknown to you let me express sincere respect and admiration....I love this song (every time I have goosebumps on face and wet eyes) and I'm sure you can be proud of your version! Thank you decided to share your performance... . Greetings from Poland....obviously with "thumb up" under this video! I added this to my YT "Favorites" 🤝!
Thanks Viktor! I first learned the story behind this song when I was 15, and it made a big impact on me. The Berlin wall had just come down a year or two earlier, and Billy talking about his experiences during his short tour of the Soviet Union gave me a very different perspective on the people of Russia.....I quit thinking about them through silly "cold war" political stereotypes and just started thinking about them as people, which led to a growing curiosity about Russia and Eastern Europe in general. Fast forward to the present day, I just spent 5 weeks in in Europe, mostly in Lithuania and Romania with great friends I've met through my work online, and I have a lovely friend in Nizhny Novgorod as.....and your experiences with Billy Joel helped bring all of that about. :-) . Cheers....and PEACE brother!
Terrific man , believe me I´ve just looked for the Lenningrad cover exactly after watching yours for the The One, Glad to find you here once again and yes, you rock, I really envy your skills.
@@PianoManSteve how r u sir, my wife passed away in2018 on Xmas Eve, can you play for her "The first time ever I saw your face, but if u can't, any song will do, am sure what ever u pick, it will be beautiful, Thank u so much for taking the time to read my text, bye....
