i like to picture that someone actually read your comment and commented the exact same thing 1 month and 2 weeks later. edit: said comment was gone. probably was a bot that was reported.
Oh boy, I sure do love Billy Joel's 52nd Street song "Big Shot!" I sure do hope that a video game in which a popular character that also uses this term doesn't get popular and doesn't end up having its fans flood this comments section!
The Thing I always loved about Billy Joel is that no matter how famous or rich be became he never forgot his roots..always so proud and showed it all the time...been a BIG fan for many years
Me and my dad used to listen to this song on the car ride home when he picked me up from school, I've loved this song my whole childhood, and even now I sometimes still listen to it on my way home in my own car. And for those of you who complain about the Deltarune fans joining the Elton John party, I think we should be happy that more young people are experiencing his talent and wonderful music ^.^
One of my favorite Billy Joel songs/singles. It REALLY ROCKS. I was listening to this in my Father's car, starting from age 4 (in 1978, a good year for me) to today.
@@stvbrsn Well, it's not the same exact car...but, it's his (and a very old model from the late 1990s) and I still ride with him, when the family goes out of the city, every weekend.
I'm lying in bed listening to this on the radio when I was in high school in the late 1970's. He was playing at Madison Square garden and it was after my bedtime so I didn't want my parents to hear the music and my singing "big shot"

If there's anybody who's confused about the new comments, there's a new game called Deltarune Chapter 2 that came out and has a really good song called "Big Shot". Most of the fans came here through searching "Big Shot" which lead to this song.
what the this song sounds totally different I didn’t even know it was based off of it and it also doesn’t sound like it the big shot deltarune has like a different genre
For me this album is a celebration of the east coast party scene at the time. Mr. Joel expertly blends East coast club Jazz and Rock in this landmark album.
For any Deltarune fans who stumbled on to this song, loved it, and want to check out more from Billy Joel, here's a playlist that would fit on a single CD. 1. Piano Man 2. The Entertainer 3. Movin' Out (Anthony's Song) 4. Just the Way You are 5. Only the Good Die Young 6. My Life 7. Honesty 8. Big Shot (this song) 9. You May be Right 10. It's Still Rock N' Roll to Me 11.

I heard this song at 8 years old, didnt really know why but loved it, and still do so many years later. Thanks to my sister got to see Billy Joel at the one concert he played in NZ at the Logan Campbell Center. "I give you one hint honey you sure did put on a show". :)
OMG I forgot about this awesome song!!!!Billy always could rock it out Thanx so much for all the glorious wonderful music you have given us all to enjoy for soooo longgg!! Rock On!!!!❤💙💜💛💝
We had this album when it came out October 13, 1978 because we had the album The Stranger that came out September 29, 1977 the year before. Two great records in a row...and probably his best...something like nine radio songs between the two which is quite good.

From the 52nd Street album
Well you went uptown riding in your limousine
With your fine Park Avenue clothes
You had the Dom Perignon in your hand
And the spoon up your nose
And when you wake up in the morning
With your head on fire
And your eyes too bloody to see
Go on and cry in your coffee
But don’t come bitchin’ to me
Because you had to be a big shot, didn’t you
You had to open up your mouth
You had to be a big shot, didn’t you
All your friends were so knocked out
You had to have the last word, last night
You know what everything’s about
You had to have a white hot spotlight
You had to be a big shot last night
They were all impressed with your Halston dress
And the people that you knew at Elaine’s
And the story of your latest success
Kept ’em so entertained
Aw but now you just can’t remember
All the things you said
And you’re not sure you want to know
I’ll give you one hint, honey
You sure did put on a show
Yes, yes, you had to be a big shot, didn’t you
You had to prove it to the crowd
You had to be a big shot, didn’t you
All your friends were so knocked out
You had to have the last word, last night
You’re so much fun to be around
You had to have the front page, bold type
You had to be a big shot last night
Well, it’s no big sin to stick your two cents in
If you know when to leave it alone
But you went over the line
You couldn’t see it was time to go home
No, no, no, no, no, no, you had to be a big shot, didn’t you
You had to open up your mouth
You had to be a big shot, didn’t you
All your friends were so knocked out
You had to have the last word, last night
So much fun to be around
You had to have a white hot spot light
You had to be a big shot last night
Yes
