Billy Joel - Running On Ice

[KennyIngram10]

@WayneYonke Woah! That's what I thought. The chorus does sound like a cartoon. And as for the idiot uploaded that did a half ass job recording it— just buy an mp3 and it won't sound bad like this.

[KiingNiikos]

Hockey - The Lighter Side comes to mind lol, 1988?

[Bzamm615]

Hey Goldenface... go puck yourself!

[Jspang16]

jokes on you goldenface. That man was a wanted animal rapist

[WayneYonke]

@johnsongs2000. Dude- you need to share some of the drugs you are on! This probably makes my personal top 5 weakest Billy Joel songs.

[WayneYonke]

@carmoves. Kind of. I get the cross-stick sound being very Police. Stewart Copeland wouldn't have gated his snare so much. And all the chirpy percussion with it makes it sound dated.

[WayneYonke]

Glad there is a lot of love for this song. It kind of blows- sorry. It has a lot of interesting elements, but they don't work in my opinion. Even in '86 I thought it sounded like a bad attempt at Sting and the chorus sounds like it belongs in a cartoon. Could have been, should have been, ... FAIL.

[Tolstoy111]

@WayneYonke It's basically a showtune and works on that level.

[flyinwhalez]

Micahel Scarn!! hahaha

[brahmabrolis2]

Threat level WHAT? MIDNIGHT!

[JSVMunny]

This song appears in "Threat Level Midnight"... A Michael Scott film. :)

[Godslove66]

[Godslove66]

The jokes on you Goldenface, That man was a wanted animal rapistz!  Poor Toby.

[Godslove66]

That's my retirement plan!

[Godslove66]

Mop it!-

[CallHimDiddy]

[danielc0307]

Kudos for The Office using a Billy Joel "deep track"!

[RiceFather]

Thumbs up if Michael Scarn brought you here!

[PANDAdrinking]

@RiceFather mop the ice!!!

[assways]

@RiceFather cherokee jack!

[chrisdogan]

thumbs up for michael swiping billy and not giving his music creds for #threataftermidnight lol

[km9OOO]

@chrisdogan So close...

[BillyJoelTributeBand]

Only Billy Joel can use a word like "ulterior" in a song and make it sound cool.

[baizhongtang]

Woow this brings back memories...

[straitjacketfeeling]

The beginning of this sounds like a really epic video game.

[CarMoves]

Billy Joel said he wrote this song for STING, and decided to keep it for himself.

The drums are very Police.

[SaturnTrack]

@CarMoves Yeah, I'm certainly getting a Police vibe from this song.

[samboy1288]

Billy is the man.

[savedbyjesusblood]

I wish he'd do this live. I think a lot of songs from the Bridge album he's never played live. He's even played "Easy Money" live, so it is surprising the Bridge has missed out so much.

[DVDICG]

Thanks for posting

[SanchiaThea]

Nah.

[jennapbass]

This has to be my my absolute favorite song on The Bridge

[TaupeFrostPrductions]

*HILARIOUS BILLY JOEL comedy short "PIANO MAN trailer", 2min.17sec., ratedTVPG, directed by Ryan London, written by Jared Larson, only on the YouTube channel TaupeFrostPrductions!

[acoronab]

Joel is (or was) obsessed with doing what you'd call 'impressions' of every available pop star, ray charles, the beatles, dylan, Springsteen, elton john. I hadn'dt heard him doing The Police. In spite of his strong personality he is like  the Zelig of rockandroll!

[seanpianoman1]

Good observation..I was just listening to the police the other day and it's definetley there, I love that Billy has covered every style though..He makes it his own..I never get bored with his music there's such a variety

[johnsongs2000]

@seanpianoman1

Billy is the most versatile artist around I would say. It is a Police sounding song for sure,They are great, but so many songs were in the same "Sca" style. This is as good as any Police song in my opinion.

[Calvero416]

Love this song! Haven't ever heard it. It's very "broadway". Awesome!

[rhoadskid88]

If the Police put on a broadway show, this would be the opener

[lXetoXl]

I think it's great that I've known about Billy Joel for so long, yet I am still finding new songs by him that become my new favourites. Here's to another one.

[polishcellist09]

I concur- I keep finding new favorites too! I've been playing this one for hours now...

[rushgeddylee]

great song. rush is the best

[RunningOnIce84]

Fantastic song. I've recently just discovered some of his older stuff - LOVE IT!

[amazed66]

By Billy's career standards this is some of his newer stuff! LOL

[bapples]

pure police

[rushgeddylee]

what do you mean? the police band or the actual police?

[MarzianDREAM]

...

[SEQUINS74]

Does indeed sound exactly like The Police-compare this with Spirits in the Material World.

[siasti]

I have been listening to this for years and never noticed that but, yes, the similarity is there

[TURNSTILES76]

I love this song!! I have The Bridge on cassette THANKS for posting

[mission2marsden]

I'm glad you like it!! It's a great song :)

[mission2marsden]

It's from The Bridge. Glad you enjoyed it!

[Assassin0820]

yes it was great!

[amazed66]

Billy really sounds like Sting here, both in his voice and the kind of song and you can imagine The Police singing this.

[zephyerlives]

GOod song thanks for posting :)
