[Crikeymmmm]

...one word to describe this...POWERFUL!

[uofmrules1]

How was someone even able to sneak an American flag in there? Bold move man!

[hkfan1980]

why is it people discuss putin during a a video about vietnam? anywho this song is deep it makes me cry. The Piano man is awesome <3

[ShariSez]

Why do they translate it as 'Buenos Noches Saigon' in Russia???

[hazardaew]

first heard this song well over 20 years ago, i had this concert of video, this is the best recording. my brother charlie passed in 2009 and the mention of 'remember charlie now has another significance to me. RIP big brother.

So sad. I bet all those people wished they could turn back the clock and still be in the soviet union, or better yet, with father Stalin- fighting for mother russia!

Comrades, the dream is not dead! Long life communist Russia!

[Latas33007]

@jjjooommm222 - Seriously? You idiot. 

[warrenjlc84]

@jjjooommm222 You are an idiot.

[iceberg19122000]

@jjjooommm222 Keep the faith comrade.....General Secretary Putin will restore Russia to its glory, and then he will straighten out the Capitalist mess in THIS country. THE BEAR IS RISING and Pig Limbaugh can do NOTHING to stop it.

[ShariSez]

@iceberg19122000 Maybe Pig Limbaugh is good for nothing, but I suggest Putin, murdering bastard that he is, stay the fuck out of the USA or he'll find out that a couple hundred million Americans are not lame dicked, little weasels like Limbaugh.

Brilliant Song/ Lyrics etc. Aside from him the only artist that in recent times 2000-10 this good behind the piano keys live is Chris Martin from Coldplay....would be good if they had a cover of this, but the lyrics by B.Joel are going to be hard to match....

[xterra43]

such a sad song,,, unfortunately our govt is still sending young men to die for nothing in places like Iraq and Afghanistan.

[naomi6kids]

anyone with a soul can feel the passion in this song and also the feeling of hopelessness knowing the Vitamen war was fruitless.....

[naomi6kids]

anyone with a soul can not be anything but moved by this song! Billy Joel has an affilaiation with peoples feelings we can only comprehend......

[Derwentcub]

He was my primary piano teacher. Got kicked out of piano by my 2nd teacher (BOREDOM!) then focused on the songs Iiked. I'd play Super Tramp, Yes, Elp & EJ & cop licks. But with Billy Joel I would sit and learn the songs section by section. I had the turntable by the piano & would lift the needle over and over till I got it right. Sometimes I'd get 45rpms & slow them down to 33, practicing till I could play along & never miss a lick, thus even learning to play in time!

Thanks Billy!

This song is so emotional, i can't imagine how moving it must be for veterans

[OhWhen7]

Billy Joel is the single greatest musician ever.
