  • Просто спасибо за клип! Было очень приятно окунуться в детские воспоминания... Билли Джоэл супер! Мы его помним и любим)))

  • buena cancin me trae recuerdos. bellos

  • does anybody recognize that the lyrics is very sophisticated, and about some hard situations in the beginning of a relationship, which is hard to express, and a very few songwriter could write expressive words about this?

    Thanks Billy!

  • Some lovers are doomed from the start because there is no trust. Always fearing and suspicious. This is always hallmark of relationships with violence. Both parties are psychologically violent but only one party is usually also physically violent.

    Good lyrics in this song. Wish more people would fully understand that trust is paramount to a successful relationship. There are just too many fools who don't get it - emotional dependence and love are two different things.

  • great voice

  • I loved the Emo chick around 2:48 with a rat in her arms.

    It stood out to me.

    Man I love this video though!

  • eh, they dont make em like they used to?!

  • Great song and video, one of the best from the golden era of MTV. It makes me sad to see Chrissie their child and hear "it'll never happen to us"....oops :-(

    Still, an all-time favorite.

  • Err, "makes me sad to see Christie with her and Billy's child and" ...

  • Billy Joel recorded on Columbia Records, a very old label, and he was their biggest selling artist of the 20th Century.

  • One of the best talents ever. Love ya BIlly..PLEASE PHONE ME!

  • Brilliant Song

  • Forgot what a great melody this song has. Joel deserves the respect of one of the most talented songwriters in history.

  • I put Spider-Man Behind his head...

  • ME GUSTA ESTA CANCION

  • Five stars...

  • Billy and Christie (in happier days). Excellent song!

  • great song, and great vid for it's time.

  • Great song. Too bad they split and got divorced.

  • Also the way Billy calls his (all-male) band "girls" right at the outset.

    Like I said, really intriguing.

  • This is an intriguing video.

    1. The way Billy leers at Christie, at seemingly contrastful moments of the video -- moments which would prove poignantly fititng.

    2. The whole NYC 1980s scene.

    3. The juxtaposition between plausibly "real" footage and obviously staged scenes.

    4. The NYPD officers looking upwards in shots eerily and sadly reminiscent of 9/11.

    5. The incredible "Did you miss me?" t-shirt.

    6. The inclusion of characters who clearly are not enjoying the spectacle.

  • This the true power of voice

  • used to see shit like that all the time when i worked in NYC

  • really? that would be awesome! (I am a musician, though, so I know it wouldn't be awesome to EVERYONE. ever see any famous bands do that?

  • Great fucking song!!

  • Gotta love the crack whore w/ the cigarette. Only in nyc.

  • Oh everytime I watch this video and the crack whore walks by I can't stop laughing.

  • Billy Joel is so awesome, and this is by far my favorite of his songs. 5 stars from me

  • i luv billie joel, o and this song

    this really happened in Long Island

  • I was born in 85, and this is the first song i can remember ever hearing. great song!

  • God this is such a feel-good song. =)

  • i luv billy joel <3

  • this music is COOOL !

  • If you watch the video closely, you will notice that the camera doesn't focus on bassist Doug Stegmeyer very much. And, when it does, it often doesn't get his whole body and it is only for a split second. This was often seen in live videos, too. Doug, I think, was a bit shy and liked to be in the background. By the way, did Doug die? If so, how?

  • Unfortunately, Doug Stegmeyer committed suicide in his Long Island home in August 2005.

  • I just read that the other day! What a shame!!The fact that he always stayed in the background and didn't smile much suggest that he likely was a very insecure and unhappy person for many years!

  • Doug Stegmeyer committed suicide in 1995 at age 43 with a gun.

  • who is he

  • Doug Stegmeyer was the bass player for the group

  • man this song is one of my fave!!!!!

  • One Word G R E A T

  • MUY BUENO!!!!!!!

  • ever awesome song

  • Fantastic and beautiful song.............oh man. I remember the Winedale Pub and dancing to this with a dear friend of mine. Hubby and I are sitting here and listening with tears.......but it's a "matter of trust". Peace, Carlie

  • COOL!!!!

  • billy joel is so hot in this video singing this song with an awsome amount of passion, i loved it the first time i heard it. great song and video

  • billy joel is one of my favorite singers ever.. he is so multi talented.. i wish more people knew about him since he is amazing

  • I'm not really a Billy Joel fan but I LOVE this song. geez, I just get up and dance!!!

  • Hmmm, I've never been a Billy Joel fan, but I might start after hearing this song. His voice is awesome. LYMI

  • THE best Billy Joel song. Love it.

  • that is cool all people is happy with music outside. :)

  • this wakes up even a dead man!

    Brilliant!

  • Seeing brinkley in the video makees it ever more nostalgic.

  • That's Music!!!(How can people listen to hiphop & RnB?Shit on them,thats shit!!!) Billy Joel, AC / DC and Aerosmith rule the music world!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Billy, bonita cancion, bonitos recuerdos

  • I never get tired of hearing this song! Billy Joel is a music legend!

  • superbo! la vera anima newyorchese di billy joel

  • real cool!!!!Great song and video.

  • I worked as a paramedic in brooklyn when this was filmed. it was recorded on one of the hottest days of that summer. i worked the standby ambulance. between takes he would come out and talk to the crowd.

  • really? that sounds cool

  • Thank you for that UNSOLICITED comment

  • Ahhh I miss old NYC <3

  • True NYC was awesome back then. It was THE city

  • this song is like poetry in motion. I heard him play it live at least 15 times and its such a powerful song, and such a fun video. Poetry in motion.

  • I've heard this song several times but never seen the video for it. Always liked the song. Thanks for sharing! :)

  • ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!!!

  • LOL!!!! Yeah me too! All those people groovin down to the music is just hilarious! It's great.

  • Billy Joel looks so young!!

  • This kind of reminds me of the Beatles rooftop concert.

    Great video.

  • Aw.... back when Christie wasn't crazy and Billy had hair and wasn't married to a 14-year-old. They look so happy! And I've always loved this song. Nostalgia...

  • How is Christie crazy?

  • It was a reference to that 1998 story about her having a nervous breakdown, delusions and paranoia, and an irrational fear of cows. (Billy isn't really married to a 14-year-old either.) ;)

  • At first glance, the lay of the land look like Saigon or something, not NY. Anyway, one of my favorites.

  • Lyrics...lyrics...lyrics.

    Great post.

    Thanx, X.

    Bless

  • The woman who yells at them out the window always cracked me up. Thanks for uploading this :)!

  • !, 2, 3, 4....AND...WOW!

  • great

  • I love the random girl in the street holding the rat. Classic. This is one of my favorite Billy songs. Soooo much better than Springsteen ;)

  • OK girls and boys, I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!

  • Love this song, and video. Reminds me a little of the Beatles concert on the roof!!!
