Pressure (Billy Joel)

[OZOBIEUSA1]

I LOVE HIS MUSIC!

[OZOBIEUSA1]

VERY MUCH A GENIUS!

[KatieLuvsToSing]

can this man ever get more amazing?

Every performance I see of his, the more respect I have for him... <3



[dw1985]

ain't this the drummer that was on MTV's show trulife i've got strang parents?? it was several years back but i am pretty sure it is....

[TheCrazyShowAZ]

I LOVE BILLY JOEL!!!!!!!!

[sheldon939]

I lost so much respect for Joel when he fired Liberty...

[L1S91]

As a volunteer tutor I sing this song to the young ones who are going to take an important test!

[nonameavailableuser]

speedballin out of his mind probly. great song writer though. some of his videos have masonic symbolism in them. this doesn't impress me anymore so much. so many artists do it. i'll always appreciate the good qualities of this artist though.

[jjoeshaw]

@nonameavailableuser Oh dear. Stop believing that.

[GothChristianPatriot]

3 people have loaded guns in their faces.

[pistachioguy]

Yet another classic from Billy Joel.

One of the most unfairly overlooked musical talents. Do kids these days even know what good music is about?

[dw1985]

@pistachioguy NO!

[dw1985]

@dw1985 who it was then

[undeadmatador]

LOL, billy joel is so coked up. his eyes look like they're gonna pop out of his head. liberty devitto is an incredible percussionist. too bad they had to go get all greedy about everything and sue each other.

[kdw456]

my anthem...

[XMARINEmax]

I have to say that drummer is impressive. Where is he now and who?

[ExplodingBacon]

@XMARINEmax

Liberty_DeVitto

[finnemccool]

And the video is scary, where he's looking at the Pre-HD TV screen and convulsing...PRESSAH

[finnemccool]

always loved the line "psych one, psych two, what do you know"

[pattipie100]

I had the vhs of this and it roared for months, every cut was good...."live from Long Island" ....finally found it. "Scandinavian Nights" tour.

[sweetgypsywife]

100% fantastic drummer, is Liberty...would so love to find longer clips of him thrashing those drums!!..

[mattaki]

what an incredible backing band.

[upstatenyphann]

@mattaki tighter than a bugs ass.

[fortehlulz9999]

What is the pedal effect he has on the Yamaha?

[maxxxx1972]

guys this is a good job but nothing to compare with the Live at '90 The Yankee Stadium version!!

No Doubt!

[toadfan64]

I love the piano in this song

[oOGremistaOo]

one of the best songs ever

[zha9560]

Видео очень хорошего качества.  Какой год?

Спасибо, это одна из моих самых любимых песен!!!

[petefader]

ahhh, so much fuckin' presshaaaa

[judettaja]

drummer is doing good job

[blutocampbell]

@judettaja drummer is awesome

[welshfilmbuff]

I just saw a clip of Beyonce Knowles falling flat on her face (literally) while miming to a track, so its refreshing to see someone multi-talented performing live!

Great song, too!

[MsDiesIrae9]

An effects pedal ( at 2:49 - 2:50 ) or processor is on the left hand side of his Yamaha piano. Anyone know what that might be?

Also, does anyone know how they processed the saxophone @ 1:32 to sound like a synth?

[MeAbbeAbbe]

Whats the best way to find mp3iifffy to download this mp3? Someone told me to google mp3iifffy.

[anthoneybable]

oh somagaga pressure!

[anthoneybable]

great i love it

[anthoneybable]

omg cough cough pressure

[amaxamon]

OMG - that suit is soooo 80's!

[LoveHeartLogicHead]

That synthesizer is a f.... thing of beauty.

[kelly901488]

lol awesome love him.

[SuperAlexrios]

this video is close to the studio version but not quiet well

[ChicagoChick97]

I love this performance, I wish I could have had the opportunity to see him back during this time :(

[LaGoonch]

Woah, Billy totally dropped an F bomb... Never thought I'd here him say that. :)

[devonedwards013]

I thought I was the only one who heard that!

[herostatus]

"Here you are in the 9th. Two men out and three men on."

Always been one of my fav lyrics.

[ebyard]

Mine too - but I've never understood what it means! Care to enlighten me?

[herostatus]

It's a baseball reference. You're in the bottom of the ninth inning. There are three men on the bases, and the team has two outs - which means you have to make a hit or the game is over.

[taradoherty1]

this is an example of a genius at work

[ladiezroom]

i like that scene with the guy trying to hit billy when he sings "you used to call me paranoid" (1:40-45)

[showingon]

is it just me or, at the very end (before the "1,2,3,4") does he say "so much f**king pressure*"?

[Guambahjohn]

yeah i think he defiantly does.

[Guambahjohn]

definitely*

[blazebiker14]

At about 4:40 definately.

[ChicagoChick97]

I didn't hear it!

[rjvsmb]

Damn, Liberty is a beast on the drums. To bad he and Billy had a falling out.

[rhondijohn]

Do you know why they had a falling out?

[finsfan13]

I remember when I was a little girl, I loved this song because Billy mentioned Sesame Street.

[muppetfan33]

I actually had "Billy Joel Live From Long Island" on VHS, but I lost it a while back. That made me sad.

[onejwhite1]

He looked a little like Sylvester Stallone in those days, didn't he. He sang better, for a former amateur boxer

[nico150194]

my godddd amazing billy j i love that fukin songggggggg

they dont produce any songs like that anymore :((( peace to 80'sssssssss we love ya

[Palitrochuska]

In this concert there's a song that I can't remember the name, the beggining sounds like a flight attendant or close encounters of the third kind... I can't describe it. Somebody can help me?

Sorry for my english.

[mission2marsden]

That's Scandanavian Skies. Great song off the Nylon Curtain.

I LOVE YOU BILLY!!!

[Palitrochuska]

Thank you! I've found it finally, 14 years later I saw :D

[mission2marsden]

Hey, just wondering (sorry if this came out of nowhere) will you do Sub4Sub? I'll sub to your vids, and you sub to mine? I subbed you!:)

[GUATINGUATON]

It could be "Sacndinavian skies".

[finsfan13]

Sorry for the late reply, but I think you are referring to Scandinavian Skies.

[richieallen0]

BEST BILLY JOEL SONG EVER!

[Paulmonte4]

no only the good die has great meaning and a sick rythum

[meanwiddlekid]

These were the good old days when Billy would set up a keyboard at each corner of the stage and run back and forth like a madman. This was one of his best live songs. He didn't do it at Shea, though.

[MyKindOfBlueEyes]

I have the dvd as well as the cd. It's great.

[mission2marsden]

GOOD! The younger you are the better! That was about the age I started liking Billy too!!

[dalewrangler]

I believe that this was his best concert. I only wish it would be released on DVD

[richhillbilly]

was this concert at the hartford civic center

[gyfrk5]

it was at nassau colleseum on long island..

[paisleypoet66]

This is an awsome concert!!! I still have the video tape!!!

[mission2marsden]

who couldn't love him?

[ricardoolois]

the blind the deff idk who else lol

i love billy joel(his music)an iam only 12 lol

[Joelesque]

Could people please stop saying "I love his music and I'm 12" or 4 or 10023 years old! No one gives a shit whether your 12 or 52. We all love Billy's music and that's important. Not your frickin' age

[woodstock1330]

I think people just want to show that Billy's music never goes out of style and that people of any age can relate to it. Why do you care if they say how old they are anyway? Stop being an ass.

[mission2marsden]

my gym teacher looks like him

[KeyboardDP]

Billy Joel and Liberty Devito are 2 of the greatest muscians around.

[emmyloulou91]

I Like The Part When He Says "PRESSAH!"

But Hey I Love This Song

[ItalianBean413]

damn, i am so asking him if he's related on monday. lol

[ItalianBean413]

my music teacher looks exactly like him! same eyes nose and mouth face...omg haha just different hair!

I love billyyyyy!!!

[Karinda7]

You have got to post a photo! please

[misterashley]

Maybe my favorite Billy Joel song. Killer performance; he makes it look so easy.

[RogueMaster7]

Try "Dot Dot Dot Pressure"

[blutocampbell]

I love Liberty's drumming.He is awesome.

[sgtpepper1138]

no doubt, Billy's new drummer does a good job, but c'mon it's Liberty

he does stuff that is just amazing

wish him and Billy would patch things up

[acehighpat]

I didn't even know Billy and Liberty were at odds with each other.

[maxxxx1972]

@blutocampbell 100% agree..absolutely great

[JeffK1980]

In this clip, wouldn't it be cool that Billy would do a flip over Liberty's drum kit while Liberty is playing? The audience would go nuts.

[TMundo]

I recall seeing this on TV when I was a kid, well, one of his performances. He waited till the very end to play Pressure, which was my favorite song at the time, I must have been 2-2.5 years?

[gambit7775]

WOW

[neilpeartripley]

Turnstiles, I use to have this video on BETA, I love this concert, could you please put up "Scandinavian skies" my favorite .. from Ontario Canada here:)

[CrownOfGemfire]

I very heavily second the request for Scandinavian Skies from this concert. It is by far the best version of that song, and it'd be nice to be able to listen to it without busting out the old VHS

[Palomitz]

Great song! good looking guy back then.

[kskarpias]

I LOVE the video of his concert. I have it ^_^ you ppl have GOT to get your hands on it somehow b/c it is GREAT!! ~Karissa~

[chum606]

One of the best!!! Pls. post more videos of this concert! thanks!

[VanHalenDude78]

Did i say..HE'S THE MAN!!

[VanHalenDude78]

HE'S THE MAN!

[rusticman]

NICE POST!

[cobblestoneblues]

HELL YEAH!

[gdonnelley]
