Just got done listening to this on the radio. Amazing song. Billy Joel is very talented, I never knew he was the one who played the piano and the harmonica
Oddly, this song wasn't popular when it first came out in 1973. It only reached the top 25 on Billboard. The song became more popular with Joel attained stardom in 1977, and it's become his trademark song, the one that he finishes most concerts with.
@dragonfitter FHS or, Fuzzy Hair Syndrome was irradicated in the early 80's but there's an outbreak every so often, as history has a habit of repeating itself.
THIS IS BY FAR (in my opinion) HIS FINEST WORK EVER .NO OTHER BJ TUNE EVER STUCK IN MY HEAD THE WAY THIS ONE DOES.IM 43,SO I HAVE GROWN UP WITH HIS MUSIC ALL MY LIFE.ONE OF HIS NEWER (well,newer than this ) IS A TUNE CALLED ALLEN TOWN.ITS A GOOD TUNE TOO,,JUST WAY DIFFERENT

This too is classic. THIS IS when he (& band) were gathering their 9 years of road muscle he talks about in his 1982 Playboy interview.

It is a great song but a sad song if you listen to the words. A song of broken dreams. And broken lives.
