  • Once my friend and I were looking for an apartment and the only place we could afford was a place for Women only. So....we dressed up as chicks and moved in!!

    (Anyone catch that reference? lol)

  • @DFDavid21 Ya, we did. Not funny.

  • @DFDavid21

    Bosom buddies. I used to love that show simply because of the song.

  • Married. Christie. Brinkley. This guy is cool.

  • Return to 16 years old in then on that day in past one point once again and start again the life. Start all failure regret traumas that continued violating again.

    今一度あの日あの時に過去の一点に16才に戻って人生やり直す。­犯し続けた全ての失敗後悔トラウマもやり直す。

  • 35 people don't have their lives. :D lol

  • Hahhh whoo! Great song!

  • I wish songs were made like this now not the crap that people listen to now

  • @sorcha366 Amen to that.

  • This song highlights when me and my husband met we met at billy Joel's concert and this song was playing

  • 7 more likes and its 1978. :O

  • my life is one of the greatest hits of billy... i love this song which remind me of the past of my life....

  • merci tres belle chanson qu de souvenirs..

  • It sounds like he has The Beatles singing back up.

  • sing it piano man!

  • this man is happy to be away from that bitch in this song lol! translation- FUCk off bitch!

  • @MRMAL1C3 Keep it to yourself. Tell the bitch to fuck off on YOUR time. Enjoy the music.

  • I just figured it out, a lot of people who are still kids like his songs, not just the people who were alive in their teens, but even younger ones, the ones who dont like singers similar to him or just like newer singers more just get more publicity because its better for business to get people to like younger artists more because they still have long careers ahead of them (the term artist being used to describe musicians,also being used EXTREMELY lightly to describe justin beaver)

  • Some people ask why I stayed married for so long, kids, and am a war veteran (Somalia) drugged to the eyeballs until i had a breakdown and was placed in a mental health hospital. I then gained back a bit of self respect and confidence to know this is not living.

  • 32 had a shity life

  • me recuerda cuando niño ,pasaban por la radio esta musica para levantarnos...!!!

  • Not on my time. BRO

  • oldies but goodies!!!!! luv it

  • Green day rules

  • @LindaFusa fuck greenday

  • omg billy joel is amazing i love these Lyrics!!!

  • Take my life...PLEASE!!!!

  • we sang this at our musical, there were standing ovations ;D

  • This is the 45 RPM single edit, which is what 103.9 K-Rock in Corner Brook, NL uses. However, the official music video of this song uses the full album version.

  • sex and drugs are allright

  • I don't think Billy Joel gets the credit he deserves.

  • @Joetime90 It took me 4 years living in the US to discover Billy Joel's Art. (Yeah, shame on me!) He is one of the most gifted American musicians ever, he should be as famous as Bod Dylan. (Shame on you, Americans!:) Actually, I don't get Bob's music, I understand how the political speech on his songs was (is?) important for Americans, but musically speaking, I don't get him...Billy Joel is another level, his Art has a meaning for everybody, for all nations.

  • @wolferlwa Actually, to be honest, I would venture to guess that he is MORE famous than Bob Dylan.  Certainly in terms of album sales.

  • @Joetime90 More like Billy Froel with that hair.

  • Comment removed

  • @MoPar7055 hilarious

  • @muffinfucker226 I'm glad I gave you a chuckle mr muffin fucker

  • "I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU SAY ANYMORE THIS IS MY LIFE"

  • This song is the best now a days all the music is about sex and drugs

  • @Ilovecookies765 It was back then pretty much too. These guys just were too awesome.

  • this would be a funny song to a shoot out.

  • I just now saw the Bosom Buddies opening on Cracked, and this song was on it. I chuckled and smiled when I heard it.

  • wait what she want to be one of the people in occupy wall street?

  • ths iz my lfe go hed wif ur own lfe lve me alne

  • MY LIFE!

  • They should call him Billy Froel with that hair

  • @MoPar7055 LOL

  • love it xx

  • him and Elton John are persons that play piano and sing, no one is that good

  • @LuckyStudentStudios what about freddie mercury or paul mccartney?

  • @1UPPepper well yeah they are also but my favorite are they

  • Clever Lyrics Barrhead I agree

  • Love it -3 "You can speak your mind, but not on my time"-3

  • @Barrhead30 Yes that is so important, when you are speaking no interruptions this is my time to be heard you time is next. Take care mate thank you thank you all

  • I relate to this song, I foolishly married when I was 21. I walked away from a 25 year marriage, It just came to me that I was so unhappy (suicidal) keeping up appearances for everybody's happiness. I was suffering spiralling down to the ground where I hide. I have never felt so alive in my life as I do today, It was like Billy wrote this song for me. Billy Joel has saved my life with this piece of of pure Art.

  • @spud236 DOOOOON'T FORGET YOUR SECOND WIND

  • @spud236 Amen!!! I was being beaten by my husband and when I finally got the courage to leave I would listen to this every single night. I still return to it because the beatings are not finished, he just uses the justice system now to torture me and our child. But guess what? This child is so much stronger than I was, and she will go on to live a great life and do wonderful things for humanity. @10 years old she wants to go to Occupy protests. This IS our life!!!

  • @rhiandjen That is great you have raised her well and she sees not a barbie doll world she sounds like an old soul. Good luck. xx

  • @spud236 We've got the same fate... And, I know I'm happiest now more than ever. Good for the both of us. Keep up!

  • @thevagabondsgambit And you my friend stay well and be happy

  • @spud236 Live your life mate, enjoy every m oment like it's your last....Keep smiling ; )

  • @octopuspick Thanks I will:)

  • @spud236 ...he didnt... HAHAHHHAHAHA:)

  • @spud236 This is a testament to real art. Thank you sir for sharing this for it has inspired me further to promote what REAL ART is, if that was even possible. Good luck in the future. This song is pure gold, along with many of Joel's songs.

  • @spud236 If you've been married for 25 years at the age of 21, that's a very long time, how is that a foolish marriage? Perhaps if something lasted a few months or even 1 or 2 years. You were unhappy and unable to do something for 25 years?

  • @MrECC83 one believes that "is happy" inside the protocoles set by society.

  • @spud236, well, your only 46, plenty time to enjoy the rest of your life. Enjoy.

  • @spud236 thats an amazing story

  • @logom0 Yes it does sadden me at times but as @brianpratt says look back on goodtimes and yes at times there were a few at the start

  • @spud236

    If you look back at all the good times, then realize it wasn't foolish. It came to an end because all things do. I can relate too.

  • @briangpratt Thanks for that

  • Top song !!!

  • This is the theme song of LIBERTARIANISM folks.

  • This is the theme song of teenagers everywhere.

  • I LOVE this man. What a gifted soul!!

  • LINDA DEMAIS ESSA MUSICA

  • I bet in person he's probably one of the coolest, funniest, good-hearted, & down-to-earth kids around!!! YOU GO, BILLY!! WE LOVE YOU, HOME-DOG!!

  • this song make me realyze ,i have to live by myself when i growing up

  • This man is so talented they made a band for him called "Billys Talent" lol

  • Just noticed that there are 25 dislikes...who the hell couldn't like this song? My opinion: greatest Billy Joel song

  • Billy is most talented on sooo many levels !

  • Whoever thinks that Justin Bieber is more talented than Billy Joel have never heard good music. Billy Joel write his music and songs and Justin bieber does what, sing???

  • @MsCarolann58 Hell yeaah! plus bill joel doesnt use autotuuune!

  • Whoever thinks that Justin Bieber is more talented than Billy Joel have never heard good music. Billy Joel write his music and songs and Hustin bieber does what, sing???

  • Billy joel is one talented if not a reall ugley SOB

  • I was on a booze cruise on the Stenna Normandy back in 1989 and I heard this song sung by a chap named Scott Page, Bloody marvelous!.

  • The satellite radio at my job literally plays this album all the time. Billy has gotten me through some ridiculous shifts.

  • Every time I hear this I think of Tom Hanks with a wig on lol.

  • @Shark2076 Yep, "Buffy and Hildegard."

  • Billy Joel was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1999

  • One of the GREATEST recordings in music history.

  • Umm how could 22 people dislike this? I don't like that button - if you don't like a video go search and watch a different one! I AM 17 and I LOVE Billy Joel! <3

  • @ForeverInHeart410 couldn't have said it better myself babe - you clearly know what u r talkin about x

  • @rubyhaleybenjamin Haha oh gosh, that's awesome! :P :) God bless!

  • 사랑 합니다 빌리죠엘씨

  • Ya, thats for people that don't have NOTHING to do with there frigon time....

  • @rubyhaleybenjamin For me it was my toothbrush lol Cause Im alriiiiiight!!!

  • Billy Joel is one of my best musicians of all times. I can play "Piano Man" and "My Life" over and over all day.

  • what sit/com was this song the theme to???? i know...do you?? hint....tom hanks was in it and no cheatin searchin for tha answer....lol!!!!

  • @royzcustomz Haha, I had actually just wikipedia'd this song before I looked it up on youtube. I don't remember the exact name, but I think it was something like Bossem Buddies? Bossom Buddies? Here's another trivia question. Who sings the backing vocals to this song?

  • @freddyhoff7 Bosom Buddies, starring Tom Hanks and Peter Scolari. Peter Scolari is actually starring in the Music Man at the Ogunquit Playhouse up here in Southern Maine right now. Got a chance to talk to him briefly, seems like a nice guy.

  • gawd i know i am only 27 but this is good music the new music today sucks i also enjoyed the 90's but i love billy joel ,elton john,and the beatles:)atleast there i youtube:)

  • This fits my situation so well right now

  • but the 1-up song to this is better off dead

  • go ahead w/yer own life..leave me alone

  • 22 people have no life

  • @thejseppishow 23 including you.

  • @ShinyJedi 59 people have no life including the ones who thumbed him up

    ........................^ that number will change soon

  • normal people like billy joel, normal people are just so hard to find these days though. if someone doesnt like billy joel, they haven't heard him play

  • I am (insert age here) and I love Billy Joel, and I think I'm an individual cause of my age and I don't realize anybody from any age group can like any genre of music from any musical period:D wow I am so indifferent.

  • saw him in concert years ago. was "dragged" there by a good friend. pleasantly surprised. I'm a Metal head at heart but can appreciate a great artist and musician.

  • i love the bass!

  • This song at least describes how I want things to be. I'm in my early 20s and people (even my parents) are still controlling me and my life, thinking on how THEY think it should be =_= Billy is right, this is my life, ffs.

  • @MissSparkles57

    No reason to be sad, you should be happy that you have good taste in music.

  • I always meant to buy a Billy Joel cd, but never did! He's one of those talented people who never jumps up and steals the limelight, but his songwriting genius is always just there for everyone to discover.

  • Hey I'm Black and I love Billy Joel

  • @Pres1617 lmao

  • Who cares how old you are, people at any age can enjoy this music

  • My son has said that he finds he likes the music I like--Beatles, Billy Joel, Harry Chapin,and the 'soft rock and oldies' he listened to in the car with me. He isn't complaining about it--he just wants the lyrics to make sense and be able to be heard. the day I had to borrow a Beatles CD from him made me feel I'd done well.

  • Oh yeah? Well I'm not even 13, and I listen to this stuff on a daily basis, lol and play it on the piano :D Huge fan of the Beatles, Herman's Hermits, the Monkees, etc. There is still hope for our generation - this stuff is too good to pass away ;)

  • @AChristianFerret finally someone else who appriciates this kinda music at our our age that can play it too

  • Comment removed

  • hai guise i'm like eighteen and lyke diss stuff omg there is NO ONE ELSE like me in da world! lolololol

    everyone of all ages is allowed to like billy joel. get over yourself. :)

  • Bosom Buddies : opening theme song

  • Just hope the next generation can have musical taste. Our generation is already fucked

  • Who cares how old u r

  • holy hell im 14 and enjoy this music and hate most rap WOW IM DIFFERENT XD

  • I recently discovered this song but I love it! It has this weird clean feeling to it...

  • I wish they had a LOVE button on this!!!!

    

  • Man, at first when i heard this I thought this was John Lennon, please forgive me for mistaking them, but they sound the same.

  • bill que grande de la musica

  • Anyone who does not like at least one song by Billy Joel has no soul or good taste in music

  • @PrinceLonestar1000

    i can agree with you on that

  • @PrinceLonestar1000 I love all of his songs.

  • @PrinceLonestar1000 Justin Bieber is so much more talented!

    [end sarcasm]

  • this song brings u to a place of comfort and relaxation from everything and anyone u want to get away from.

  • @PrinceLonestar1000 VERY true

  • 22 people aren't getting the message: I'm fine, worry about your own damn self!

  • No one cares that yall don't care about peoples ages

  • This is the song I'm going to listen to on my way to college on the drive to Boston. ^_^

  • @ChivKnight

    Cool where you going to in boston? I have a friend who's planning to go to Berklee

  • @MindGoingNumb

    I'm planning on going to BU :D

  • Hey i am only 10, i remember a couple years back hearing this song while my old man was fucking me up the ass behind the shed. iv been hooked ever since! what is going on with music these days? My life happened a bit too late.

  • @joeymonster you had it coming

  • Does anyone know who this song was directed too, by the lyrics. Just wondering.

  • listening to this song, brings back memorys for me...move to another country.. the whole song emulates me!! love it.

  • 22 people are not ALRIGHT.

  • Damn been born too late, every time i listen to these older song, my classmate would ridicule me for liking old music and not these so called music of today. really wish they'd give this a chance

  • Why is everyone talking about their ages?  Don't you know Billy Joel is timeless? Doesn't matter how young or old you are, it's all gold.

  • duggie25 is an asshole

  • @dhenry0115 thanks for the compliment.

  • same song, maybe different title,,,,I heard it once, sounds different, but defifinate same song, can anyone help with details,,,,40's or 50's maybe

  • @dhenry0115 try googling the lyrics and seeing if you get any other results than by billy joel, thats what i always try in that kind of situation mate.

  • NOBODY GIVES A SHIT HOW OLD YOU ARE ATTENTION WHORES, SHUT UP AND LISTEN TO THE MUSIC. ty.

  • I'm sorry but no one cares how old you are....stop posting it..... you guys don't deserve the thumbs up, it's annoying

  • 22 people disliked their life.

  • This song makes an equally good graduation OR divorce anthem.

  • Who cares what age your are? This music is good in any generation! This generation just doesn't appreciate great music any more, which is why we can all crank our music in our cars!! :)))))

  • Great song!

  • 13yrs old when this came out on 8track,dads birthday so bought for him think only $6.00 bucks lot of money then,well dads gone and so is the 8track but i still have memories.

  • My mom asked me to download about 30 Billy Joel songs one day. I wondered why she wanted so many, so i gave him a listen. ive been a fan Ever since

  • This right here is the theme song to senior year! I need to sing this one to my parents!

    (Graduating in 8 days!!!)

  • @rubyhaleybenjamin good for you. i play my guitar every night along with 60s classics and become a rock star. dont change. have fun....
